Asus Fonepad 7 ME372CL Upgrading to 5.0 - Asus Fonepad 7

Hello xda,
I have noticed on the asus main website that there is an update torwards 5.0 version of the table and I've downloaded the .zip right from theyr website.
The problem is , I have no ideea how to install it. I've tried putting the .zip in both internal and external SD but when I try to (Volume UP + Volume DOWN + POWER ) , I can't update it from there , it says it fails. No ideea how else to install , it's the droid from which the fonepad came with , not a CWM or anything else.
Any ideea what I could do to update it to 5.0 ? I'd be grateful.

my Asus A639 is bricked - blue screen

hello there,
I just powered on my PDA and there it was ... blue screen and nothing happens...
didn't tried to update didn't try to do nothing.. just wanted to use it regularly and it died...
So far I've downloaded the update file of my language from asus site which is ZIP file with 3 files.. upgrade tool.exe , Update.Img , update.dat.

please help me..
thank you very much.

yeah , I've already saw this thread but since I want to Install hebrew version I thought It will be complicated...
so here is my problem...
I've downloaded cmonex DIO file and managed to Install it on my device.
the status now is as follows : It's now working in the english version , but somehow when I try to open the upgrade tool.exe , the one I got with the zip I've downloaded from the ASUS site it says "please connect to AC adapter" wheres my device is connected to the AC adapter and charging light is def on.
could someone provide a fixed upgrade tool.exe file?
or explain to me simply how to change the hebrew img file so that I would be able to install it on my device with the Rom loaded option (like I did with the DIO) ?
thank you very much for helping me.

I just had the same symptoms with my e100. and i found out that u can force it to boot by pressing volume up + camera with the silence button up. As soon as the version of your ROM appears on the screen (should b about 3~4 sec) release both button to start windows, release volume up to go clean boot, or release the camera button to go flah ROM (in case u want to flash a new ROM from the sd card - must b 256/512mb formated in fat16).
The Problem can be solved just follow the instructions :
1- Press the camera and the restart button with the sound switcher down (silent mode)
2- Your device will boot to the download mode.
3- download the original rom from global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/OS/OS/OS_Acer_2.003.04.EN_WM65_A.zip?acerid=634013918060286729&Step1=Smart%20Handheld&Step2=beTouch%20Series&Step3=E101&OS=M02&LC=en&BC=Acer&SC=EMEA_1
4- unrar the rom and press setup during the setup it will tell that active sync is not connected , ignore the window and go to program files(86x)\EUU you will find a folder called imageupdater copy the folder to use it later.
5- download this tool .mediafire.com/?ubilx69aawdbrnu
6- unrar the downloaded files move imageupdater in (4-) to the same folder
7- Run DownloadForm_2005 ( for win 7 right click run as administrator)
8- Have fun .

Re-instal the ROM (K00Z)

Good Evening every one,
So I've got the Asus Fonepad 7 K00Z (build version WW v5.4.2 ) with android 4.4.2 installed.
Last week-end I was notified that there was a new system update so I downloaded and installed it.
When the instalation ended I discover that it has installed a lot of ZenUI application that I really don't want to use. And more important the same system update notification was present.
I tried to downloaded and installed it but nothing different happend. And I realise that once I've downloaded it, the title of the installation notification was that the previous one was a failure.
So I decided to not worry about the update and root my phone so that I will be abble to delete the ZenUI application.
I follow this tutorial with no problem and start to delete the app with no visible problem (I know that I should have froze them #Imstupidsometime).
But when I shut down my phone and want to reboot it load infinitely and I'm forced to launch droidboot and to reinstal the factory setting. And then I have no acces to the home page. If I want to acces to my application I need to go on the play store througth the notification menu and then to open the application. Or to navigate througth the open application menu. And sometime it is said that "com.android.systemui" do not work anymore...
So I think I have deleted some system file which were hidden in the ZenUI application I've deleted...
I think I need to reinstalle the ROM (wich, i think, can be found here, in the menu "source code) but I don't know how to do it...
Can you help me to reinstall it ?
Thanks a lot and sorry for my poor english...
-----------
TL;DR;
- Asus Fonepad 7 K00Z (build version WW v5.4.2 ) with android 4.4.2
- rooted
- delete some ZenUI app #DumbIdea
- no access to the home page of the phone
- need reinstall ROM or custom ROM or anykind of advice

[GUIDE] How to Root ASUS Fonepad 7 FE375CG K019 (12.14.3.18) Lolipop 5.0

After 3 months of searching, I'm presenting you the method to Root your ASUS Fonepad 7 FE375CG (FE375CXG)
Introduction:
Originally this Rooting method appeared on 4pda, a Russian android forum meant for Russian community.
I translated the content of the Rooting in English below.
I hope the people, who have long waited for a working Lolipop Root, will find this guide useful.
Disclaimer:
* Warranty is void.
* I don’t guarantee that this will work.
* It maybe cause bad effects to your tablet.
* You are responsible for any damages or other issues that may arise directly or indirectly because of this.
* Very important: All your data and programs will be lost!
Before starting:
This root is specifically for WW_fonepad-12.14.3.18 (that's World wide version - lolipop).
This root will work both for FE375CG and FE375CXG.
To this date, 12-March-2016, WW_fonepad-12.14.3.18 is the latest update for this tablet.
Using this method will require to download 4 objects, in total of 900 MB.
Using this method will require a PC and a SDcard.
As for SDcards, I recommend Class 10 SDcard for android.
Step1: Pre-rooting - Check your software model.
1. Make sure that you are fully updated to WW_fonepad-12.14.3.18 (Lolipop) via OTA update.
2. You can check your firmware version here. ::: Settings --> About --> Software information --> Build number
Step2: Preparing firmware
1. Go ahead and download firmware ==> UL-K019-WW-12.14.3.18-user.zip (Lolipop) (800mb) ::: (Look at this picture)
2. Rename the zip file to MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
3. Place MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip in your SDcard. (Don't put it inside another folder. ) (Look at this picture)
Step3: Preparing USB connection
1. Download USB-drivers for ASUS connectivity ===> Download ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows.zip, then unpack it, then install Install_Driver.bat
2. Download USB-drivers for ASUS connectivity ==> Download and install IntelDnXUSBDriverSetup.zip.
Step4: Rooting
1. Turn off your Asus fonepad 7 FE375CG (FE375CXG)
2. At the same time, Press and hold Vol+, Vol- and Power for 4 seconds. ::: Screen on your Fonepad will remain turned off
3. Connect Fonepad to computer
Initializing rooting/using downgrade.cmd:
4. Download rooting tool ===> Download Downgrade_K019_NEW.zip, unpack it and start Downgrade.cmd. ::: Blue window will appear on your monitor and start working
5. Wait till you see logo Intel appear on your tablet. Disconnect from PC then turn off your tablet by holding power-button.
6. On tablet, again press and hold Vol+, Vol- and Power for 4 seconds.
7. Connect Fonepad to computer
8. On computer, hit Enter. ::: Rooting will continue
9. Later, you'll get a notice "ERASE USER DATA (FACTORY RESET)?". When you see that you should Only press ENTER.
10. Wait at least 10 mins for the rooting process to finish. When everything is done, the blue window (Downgrade.cmd) will close by itself.
Finalizing rooting/using DROIDBOOT:
11. Once Downgrade.cmd closes, your tablet will be in DROIDBOOT screen.
12. On tablet, Insert your SDcard into Fonepad. (MAKE SURE THAT YOUR HAVE PLACED MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip INSIDE YOUR SDCARD (Like in Step2).
13. With Vol+ or Vol- navigate to “Recovery” then click Power to select ::: Your tablet will proceed to root. Wait 5~10 minutes. When everything is done, your tablet will be turned-on and ready.
Congratulations. You've done it!
14. Go ahead and update SuperSu in Play Store.
It worked for me so it should work for you.

>>> Only an Intel logo appeared for me. I waiting a little longer expecting seeing another Asus/Intel logo But it was fine ^^ ! And it's easy to do, we have almost nothing to do ! I rooted because 8gb of memory is not enough, so I want to incorporate Sys App Update in the System partition
Oh Also, after step 13, your tablet will take a lot of time to boot, like 5 minutes ^^ !
To save your device, there is an amazing Asus application. It is called "Sauvegarde" in french. YOu can use it to restore your apps settings

Hi Tarhsaz,
In short, there isn't
So for example, you should redownload your calculator........ O_O
Ahaha I'm kidding xD
But really, you should redownload whatever you want to have after Rooting.
And backup your important data on computer or somewhere else, before rooting.

Did you stop at Step 13?
Did you make sure that you have put MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip in SD card before step 13?
Remember to place MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip in SD cards but not inside a folder

Try with a new sd card, it will work
hi, i need help. my fe375cxg got rooted according to step 10 without much problem. then i went to step 11 & inserted SD card keeping the file MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip in root folder but recovery at step 13 failed to find the file, so i mistakenly rebooted. now it does not go to recovery state. if i push vol up & power switch at the same time it vibrates & shows "ASUS IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE powered by android" but does not go to recovery. i assume if i can go to recovery then i can flash MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip file. can anybody suggest how to go to recovery OR any other idea how to proceed. Thanks a lot in advance for your feedback.
Edit: At last by pushing vol up & power switch at the same time for a short time i was able to go to recovery mode. However, it looks like the file name should be MOFD_SDUPDATE (not MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip, since it is already a zip file) in the root folder of SD card, and it worked smoothly for me.
At the same time, Press and hold Vol+, Vol- and Power for 4 seconds.
Doesnt work with my device Asus Fonepad FE375CXG-1A006A. Whats that for a mode? Is that recovery mode or bootloader? Should I feel a vibration when pushing these 3 buttons? Does this work with win10x64?
I tried now Recovery mode (like smith74 is suggesting in his edit), but now --> Intel SoC Device Detection Failed in the BlueWindow appears
I also tried it again starting the .cmd as administrator --> !!! ERROR !!! FWR_DnX NOT EXIST, EXIT!
Edit: Ok now I got it. (It works with Win10x64 too, you don't have to use Win7 or sth like that). The trick is that you don't get any haptic feedback from the FE375CXG and you also don't (nearly) see anything on screen of the fonepad. You really have to push all 3 buttons (+) (-) and (Power). You can count to 4 or (better) take a deep look on the fonepad-screen, it flickers! Then release the buttons. After when you plugin your device (and everything is ok) Windows shows a screen, installation of "moorefield" or "adb-drivers.." something like that. Then you can go on with 4) Downgrade.cmd
Great Job .. many thanxx
How to downgrade from Lollipop to kitkat on Asus fonepad fe375cg? please, help!
So I'm facing some problems after upgrading to Lollipop via OTA. The device became very slow, I can hardly use it. Can I use this method to downgrade to KitKat? In other words, Can I use Kitkat firmware instead of the lollipop and continue with the same steps?!
Confirmed work for K019 Asus Fonepad 7 FE375CXG, indonesia,
with latest firmware WW_fonepad-12.14.3.18 official ota.
never tampered with, locked bootloader, not rooted.
i only used this tablet for my porn device.
Thank you op,, you have no idea how i bricked 2 different asus devices with different methods,,, and this is the only method that works....
As for problems, i have a few:
1. Step 4-4, like zardoz77 said,, there's no feedback whether i successfully pressed the vol+,- and power button,,, for me,, there's no flickering screen either,,, but what works for me is,, you have to press that 3 button for EXACTLY 4 SECONDS, and then release it,,, more or less than 4 seconds,, then it's gonna be "intel soc detection failed".
2. Step 4-8, when i see intel logo on tablet, then disconnect -> press3 button -> reconnect -> hit enter,,, the blue window unable to recognize the tablet!! and there are dozens of "attempt to reconnect" text,,, then i yanked the usb cable,, and it continues to root,, turns out the problems is my usb cable,, just one of the few solutions of that particular step.
3. Step 4-13, for me, the first time boot after recovery is 15-20 minutes,, at first, i thought it failed,, but then gave it a time,, it will show you the welcome screen.
Thanks a lot OP,,
Now, time to strap those sweet dualshock3 controllers.
tyring to delete my posting ... but don't know how
