[Solved]

SOLVED!!
Hey guys, i've seemed to set myself up for a soft brick upon me not reading everything clearly and correctly.
I was trying to take an easy route and simply misread a few numbers.
I really need help here, I unlocked my bootloader then proceeded to use a 1 click root solution from here; http://android.modaco.com/topic/327000-08-aug-grj22-colour-revert-superboot-rooting-the-nexus-s/
I just went back to stock after wanting to start clean when I got this phone, anyway I didn't see that this was intended for 2.3 where as my phone was running 2.3.4 and thats where I think I went wrong.
I can access bootloader, after trying this method the phone just boots and hangs at the unlock screen and nothing else. I don't have recovery so I can't get into that, I tried locking and unlocking the bootloader to see if that would help but no luck.
Where do I go from here?

If you can access the bootloader, you're fine. Just install ADB on your computer and flash a custom recovery image. From there, you can flash a ROM.

im trying to push a recovery img from cmd and it's telling me "error: cannot load clockworkXXXXXXXX

I think you may not have entered the full file path when pushing the recovery image.

I was trying to follow this recent guide here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18257219&postcount=1
the very last part about unlocking the bootloader
and it just keeps giving me that error

Okay, been awhile since I did the whole unlocking bootloader/flashing recovery thing. If I remember correctly, in the command prompt, you should navigate to fastboot which is located in <whatever you named your Android SDK folder>/platform-tools folder. Also, place your recovery image in the same folder. Then enter the command from the tutorial. "fastboot flash recovery <image recovery file name>"

sent you a PM

a huge thanks to deejaylobo for helping me out, a folder wasnt renamed so I had a hard time pushing recovery but he got me back on my feet!
thanks again!!

[Q] Custom ROM on TF300T

HI all,
I am VERY new to this custom ROM stuff, and I am a bit confused. I have an ASUS TF300T Transformer Tablet. It has 4.2.1 loaded, build is JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.12.3-20130416. If more particulars are needed, I can provide.
I have rooted the tablet (I used motochopper to gain superuser access), thinking that would allow me to load a custom ROM. I was WRONG (as most of you probably know). I want to load a custom ROM (CyanogenMod), and also not use the ASUS preloaded software. I want something with less bloat, is faster, and something I can customize at will.
So....I have read a ton of posts on this, but I can't seem to find a step by step single, simple process to accomplish this daunting task. Simply put, I need step by step instructions that can get me where I want to be. At this point, I'm not so sure I could be more confused! LOL!
Anyone who has done this, or is experienced with this, I could use some major league assistance!
I want a faster, more "open" tablet. I also know I don't want to brick it. I definitely don't need a 300.00 paperweight!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
Scar!

You need a custom recovery! download twrp here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/tf300t
DOWNLOAD THE ONE THAT SAYS "openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-4.2" and flash it with fastboot in cmd " fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob" make sure you rename the blob to "twrp.blob"
*update your info your bootloader is "10.6.1.15.3" instead of "10.6.1.12.3"

You can also follow this guide. It explains what you need to do pretty well. But you do need a custom recovery, which i prefer TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187982

I was confused at first too. I think they need to change the wording in the tutorials. They say "If you're on JB bootloader, this twrp, if you're on 4.2 BL, that TWRP" and i was just thinking... WTF, both of them, 4.1 and 4.2 are jellybean.... it should be changed to 4.1 BL and 4.2 BL, none referred to as JB.

So...does my tablet need to be unlocked first? What do I do once TWRP is loaded on my tablet? When you say "flash it with fastboot in cmd " fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob". What does this mean? This is where it gets very confusing.

if you installed root on your device you should have adb and fastboot, right?
if you are on windows(pc) press the windows key + the R key and type cmd in the search box, then press enter now navigate to the adb/fastboot directory on your pc by typing "cd <the location of the file>" then plug in your tablet in fastboot and type " fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob" what does this do? this command flashes twrp over the stock recovery, with twrp you can install custom roms! after you have done this download a rom you like (watch out for bootloader versions! if you are on stock 4.2.1 i would reccomend the latest unofficial AOKP or the latest official cm10.1) if you download a rom you can see it is a zip file, place this zip file on your sdcard and power up your tablet in bootloader by holding volume down + power button till icons pop up! now press the volume up key when the RCK icon is blinking! now twrp should start, now click on wipe and then advanced wipe and wipe system data cache(you don't need to wipe your data if you prefer to keep it!) now go back to the main menu of twrp by pressing the home button in the top right corner, now click install and navigate to the directory you have placed the rom in, after install reboot!

I've a TF300TG but I think my question is associated to the title of this thread. Do I have to note the sku of my Pad or isn't that important when I flash a custom Rom?
In the threads of many custom Roms I've read nothing about the sku. So I'm not sure if I have to take care for this.

OK, first, I am on a MAC. I have "terminal" for CMD lines, so, it should find whatever files I need it to find just as the windows CMD block will.
I have "fastboot and ADB" in a folder on my desktop, I have named the folder "android". I also downloaded the TWRP for 4.2.1 (renamed to TWRP.BLOB). I think I have all the files I require, it's just a matter of what steps to take. I also have the CM 10.1. This is the ROM I would like to use.
I was also reading that using TWRP, I am not supposed to wipe. I guess, theoretically, I want to be able to boot to the original ASUS ROM in case anything goes wrong. Otherwise, I wouldn't have a ROM to boot from.
I'm not sure if everything I am saying is correct, again, I am very new to this and trying to undertand exactly what I am doing.

The fast boot and adb you have are most likely windows files. Not sure if there is fast boot and adb for Mac.

I can TRY to help. I have no mac, never used one, dont know the procedures for getting the drivers and stuff installed on mac. So, im going to assume you have the fastboot drivers installed properly.
NOTE: IF YOU'RE TABLET BREAKS, NEVER TURNS ON AGAIN, OR GOES UP IN SMOKE BECAUSE OF MY DIRECTIONS, IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT AND RESPONSIBILITY NOT MINE. GET OVER IT AND BUY A NEW ONE.....LMAO.... really though, i am helping as best as i can and you always run a risk flashing devices and thats your risk, not mine.... but if you follow my directions exactly, you will be jsut fine and not have a broken device...
First, make sure you're on the latest update from asus. Should be a bootloader ending in 15.3 and android 4.2.1 .
Second, unlock your bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader is quite simple. Download this: http://d-h.st/86c Install it on the tablet and open the app (its a RAR file so it needs extracted first) Follow the directions it gives you, if i remember correctly, you just click yes or something, tablet reboots, and the bootloaders unlocked. If it sucessfully unlocks, when you first turn the tablet on, in the top left corner of the screen, it will say unlocked.
After bootloaders unlocked, turn the tablet off. Power on the tablet by holding the power button and the volume down button at the same time. This will take you into bootloader mode. One quick thing to make sure you are on the latest bootloader. The bootloader screen should have 3 icons to choose from, if it has 4, you are on the old/wrong bootloader and need to go back and update your system before proceeding. If 3 icons, you're good to go, plug the usb cable in the tablet and in your computer.
Download TWRP recovery now. This is the part where you dont wanna screw up, downloading and flashing wrong recovery can equal a broken tablet. Download this exact TWRP recovery: http://diesburg.co/tf300t/twrp/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2.blob
Put that file in the folder where fastboot is.
Now in your terminal/command line, go to the directory where fastboot is. With tablet plugged in and in bootloader mode like mentioned above and terminal in the fastboot folder, type: fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2.blob and press enter .... this will flash TWRP recovery to your tablet using fastboot.... if you get something like "waiting for device" in your terminal window after typing this and it never gets past that, thats where i cant help, drivers for fastboot or something isnt right.... if it works, hell yea, onto the next step....
Reboot the tablet, type: fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot and press enter.... let android fully boot up, copy your ROM to your tablet and dont forget the gapps package for the rom..... now turn the tablet back off......
power the tablet back on like before holding power button and volume down.... once in here, RCK will already be highlighted, if its not, use your volume down key to get it highlighted... once highlighted, hit volume up and this will boot the twrp recovery you flashed......
Once in TWRP, (FIRST DONT FORGET CLICK BACKUP AND MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR CURRENT ROM!!!) now, make sure you can see your cyanogenmod rom file and gapps by clicking install and going to the ocation where its at, if you see the 2 files, click the back button to the main screen.... on the main screen, click : Wipe, then click factory reset.....after that, go back to the wipe screen, and click system to wipe the system partition..... now go back to the main screen again....
Click install, then click to install the cyanogenmod rom.... after it installs, install the gapps package.... after that, you SHOULD be good to go, reboot the tablet by clicking reboot to system.....
I think that covers everything..... now in the future for flashing other roms, always wipe before flashing and flash the roms the same way you did this one.... just so you know, not ALL roms require gapps package.... most specify whether they do or not....
Any problems, let me know unless its the "waiting for device" thing, i cant help with mac drivers, someone else will have to

I simply cannot seem to get the MAC to do this. I just don't know what command lines to use in the "terminal". I am amazed that no one has flashed their tablet with a MAC.
Anyone who has done this with a MAC, please drop a line if you can. I would really like to get this done if at all possible.
I am unlocked, I get all the way to the "flash" commands, and then it seems to not want to cooperate.
HELP!

I wanted to close out this thread and thank everyone who jumped in to try to assist me. I was not able to flash my tablet, nor get the Cyanogen mod loaded. Not sure why, but, as I try to load TWRP, I get a "permission denied" error.
Eventually, I will get my hands on a windows computer and give this another shot. But, it should have worked on my MAC as easily as anything else. Not sure exactly what I am doing wrong, but, my tablet is working just fine so, I know I did not "mess" anything up (YAY).
If someone has been able to "flash" and put a custom rom on their ASUS Transformer using a MAC computer, please get with me and let's chat!
Again, thanks everyone for taking some time to walk me thru this! I learned a lot, so your efforts did not go to waste! I great appreciate it!

not sure exactly how a mac works but i believe its some sort of linux. can you by chance start the terminal with "administrator" priveleges or type "su" in the terminal to get root priveleges? Just my thoughts with a "permission denied" error, you dont have administrator/root access.
In that link i shared above about mac and fastboot, it says to use " ./ " in front of every command. So try the fastboot commands i said above to flash the recovery but do it with ./ infront like this: ./fastboot flash commands

Well, I used Motochopper to root my tablet, so, I'm not quite sure exactly what you mean. So, I am rooted, my BL is unlocked.
My tablets boots in "fastboot", I just can't seem to get the flash done. At this point, I am not so sure I could be more lost. LOL!

In the steps I told you above. The part where you do the fastboot commands in the terminal. "fastboot flash 0x(somenumber) recovery twrp.blob"
put a ./ in front of the fastboot command... so its "./fastboot flash 0x(thatnumber) recovery twrp.blob"

Phone stuck in boot cycle

First time post and it's been a hell of a day. I need to figure out how to either sideload the factory ROM, load a 3rd party ROM, or actually factory reset my phone to stock.
I unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP and SuperSU earlier in the day. I then wanted to try to load Cyanogen11, but there were issues with the load, it constantly failed. I made a backup before I did this, but when I attempted to load the backup, nothing happened, it would just continually boot to recovery.
I attempted a few other things, clearing caches, doing wipes, powering the phone off for 5~ minutes, etc. etc.
Nothing is working, I can't load any ROM now and phone is either stuck at a bootcycle or the HTC Splash screen (Aside from being able to load bootloader/CWP)

Are you still having issues? If so, PM me and I'll help you out.....

Got everything sorted with the great help of Nelvin. I had previously gone to the twrp support IRC and after answering a few questions, they just stopped talking... Glad there are people out there still willing to help! He spent a good hour or so with me making sure everything was working.

Hey you two!
Did you solve your problem via PM, then maybe send me the log of it please.
I dont know exactly if we have the same problem, but i'll try to explain mine:
I wanted to put a ROM on my mini, because it is branded.
I unlocked the bootloader on the htc one mini and then put the twrp recovery on it. It seems to work.
Next i wanted to put super su on it, but I'm already stuck in a bootcircle, so i cant put any files onto the phone. I tried to move files with Qick ADB Pusher, but always when I try to send the file from PC(win7) to one mini it says "Opeartion Failed! Exit Code 1". I tried this when i was in Bootloader. When I am in Recovery ADB doesnt even recognize the phone via USB.
If there is more explanation needed, please feel free to ask.
Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi, can you let me know: Which ROM you want to flash, if you have attempted to s-off, and that you can boot to recovery?
Also, i'd advise against using utilities like the "pusher", please download this http://d-h.st/qmi and create a directory called c:\adb\ - move your ROM and SuperSU zip files here and extract the adb_windows.zip file to the directory.....

I did not attempt s-off, just normal htc dev bootloader.
First i wanted to flash Magio R4, but then i was thinking about Stock Rom Sense 5.5, which tr1gg3r84 uploaded.
i created folder and moved rom there. i also extracted the adb_windows zip there. what to do next? (i just wanna ask, because im a little scared of totaly breaking the phone now)
Thanks for now!

Boot to recovery, then
adb push therom.zip /sdcard/
adb push UPDATE-SuperSU.zip /sdcard/
Remember to extract the boot.img from the ROM zip file, and after flashing the ROM and SuperSU, boot to bootloader and FASTBOOT menu then:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

you mean to push with the quick ADB Pusher? but in this programm (on PC) it doesnt find the phone whilie it is is recovery boot.

No, use the adb binary from the download link I posted......
If your phone isn't found, check the windows device manager and verify that you have ADB Android device listed..... if not, download adb drivers for windows and install - then plug your phone back in.....
You are using TWRP 2.6.0.0 recovery image from here right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2418938

the adb.exe just pops up the cmd console, showing a lot of commands for half a second and then its gone again.
the android device is listed on device manager.
no, i did not use this one(twrp). i used some explanation how to do it from another forum and another file.
should i use this one now? how exactly to do that? theres no explanation :/

Open a command prompt in Windows and cd to c:\adb
Then when your phone is in recovery, type the adb commands I posted earlier.....

i cleared cache and dalvik and flashed both files(Stock Sense 5.5 4.3 Rooted Odex/Deodex;UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86; both zip files) and , after that i went into fastboot and tried (fastboot folder) "fastboot flash boot boot.img" but cmd only says "waiting for device"

Check device manager on your pc, most likely the adb driver device isn't listed - if not, reboot your pc and try again.... This has happened to me several times......

ok now it worked. writing boot and so on .. finished. total time: 2.717.
i shut it down and started the phone again.
now it almost made the starting sound. after 5 boot cycles it played the whole starting sound and also showed the second screen with the "o1ne" and "beatsaudio" on the bottom.
but thats it. boot cycling in a different way now .
seems like it just doesnt want to work.
i'm so sorry that I am bothering you for so long now..
another idea?
thanks again!
edit: im gonna go through everything again with magio rom r5...

ok got it now. thanks a lot dude!
i deleted the rom files now from the phone but still there is 9gb used on the phone. this is way to much, isnt it?
is there a safe method to clean the whole phone .. something like c:format ?
thanks ³

No problem dood.....
Download an app called diskusage from the store - start it and choose storage card.... Post a screenshot please!
Sent via a weather balloon towed by a flock of seagulls. That's how this messaging stuff works, right?

after the phone went out of battery, it was in a boot cycle again after loading and rebooting.
flashed super su.zip again, but it didnt help. stupid me didnt do a backup yet. so do i have to install the rom again and do all the configs from scretch?

What's your hboot status? Locked/unlocked, s-on/s-off etc
Also, did you do, or install anything before your phone powered off?

NEXUS 5 stuck at Google logo

Hi Guys,
After some cleanup in CMW i accidently format EVERYTHING. (formatted all single option in CMW, afterall a bad idea) So now i'm stuck at the google logo.
Now i have the 4.4.4 KTU.zip on my computer. Can i flash this via ADB sideload (as a renamed ''update.zip''? Or can i just copy the .zip file to my Nexus from a computer?
I'm @ work so i;m stuck guessing what i must do to get this thing work!
Thanks in advance guys

i dont know what it is, but if its a rom, sideload then flash away. your phine is empty right now, no rom or anything. you need to put something into your phone(sideload) then flash it.

Yes, the whole zip file is the stock ROM in a zip file.
Luckely i can't login as administrator here or else i could get my device working here
Thanks!

Why not just start the bootloader (fastboot mode) and execute the flash-all.bat? It'a the 'official' way to completely restore your phone. I've done it several times and it always worked great

get the factory image here, unzip it, and run the flas-all.bat. make sure fastboot works correctly. it will flash your phone back to stock.

Bootloop when starting android or RCK

I tried to flash a custom rom (KatKiss), and it seems that I did something wrong along the way because the tablet is stuck in a bootloop.
So I rebooted my tablet and access the bootloader ("fastboot devices" recognize my device) and try to go to the recovery (with the TWRP splash screen, "adb devices" recognize my device). Unfortunately after 20 seconds on the splash screen, the tablet reboots (tries to load my katkiss android but bootloop everytime).
Bootloader : 10.6.1.14.10
TWRP : 3.1.1.0
Since the fastboot recognize my device while in bootloader, I think that I should try to flash twrp since it seems to be corrupted somehow.
Every time I flashed a rom nothing went wrong but now that I have a problem I don't want to worsen it and would like some help on the issue.

Did you flash the rom in your current TWRP?
Something is off... Did you possibly flash the TF201 rom version??
Whatever you do - do not use Wipe Data from the bootloader!!
Reflash TWRP, format data, then reflash the rom
And report in more detail what you did

Thank you for the fast reply!
I did flash the rom with my current TWRP and only downloaded the rom version for the TF700. Below is what I tried from your suggestion:
I check that my device is recognized:
fastboot device
So I tried flashing TWRP:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-tf700t
After it succeeded, I reboot the tablet:
fastboot reboot
And as a result... nothing changes, I don't know if I should try with older version of TWRP. Seems like I only have access to the tablet with the fastboot.

That is very strange indeed. Yes, try a 3.0.2 version of TWRP and see if that works.
If not, I would flash the Asus stock blob in fastboot and start from scratch....

Not sure if this will help but I had a reboot problem with trying to load into TWRP. I posted my solution into a different thread but will toss it out here..
I just had this problem with a Transformer 201Prime. The cycle went something like this..
Power on.... get ASUS logo in middle, Tegra3 logo on lower right, and bootloader unlocked in upper left....
then a buzz... then reboot.....
So I would try the power button and hold the volume down... that got me into the bootloader but when I hit the volume up button it would give me the TWRP logo... then buzz and reboot...
After much monkeying around... I realized I would have to re install everything. Fortunately I had the original NVFLASH bloob files backed up so I was able to get into the NVFLASH commands.
Here is a great tutorial, it is for the 201 so be sure to download the correct files but the steps are basically the same.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tra...prime-t3486237
The other problems is I had to download a bloob tool to 'unpack' the necessary .bin and .ebt files that are mentioned in the commands... I used the following link to download the tool.
https://github.com/AndroidRoot/BlobTools
I hope this helps shake loose a few answers.
Once I was able to get a working recovery I could flash an updated ROM. (KatKiss is my current favorite)

I tried to flash version 3.0.2 of TWRP and the problem is still the same.
@Unidave199 the link you put in your post points to a post that doesn't seems to exist anymore, has it been moved?
@berndblb how do I do for flashing a rom with the fastboot? any stock rom to recommend?

double post

Unidave's link would only help you if you generated your device specific nvflash blobs when the tablet was still functioning. Did you:
flash a specifically modded recovery - flash the moddded bootloader, use wheelie to generate and save your blobs, return everything to factory specs?
I highly doubt it since you would have mentioned...
To flash the stock blob in fastboot you download the Asus firmware from here: https://www.asus.com/my/support/Download/28/1/0/11/29/8/
Extract the zip twice until you see a blob and a meta-inf file.
Move the blob into your fastboot folder, discard the rest of the file
Issue these commands one by one, letting each one finish before starting the next. Some will finish quick, others may take up to 3 minutes:
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot flash system blob
fastboot reboot
The first boot will take a while, but that should put you back on a stock JB 4.2 system.
Trash all the files you used in your last attempt and redownload the rom, gapps and supersu
Fastboot flash TWRP
Reboot
Format /data in TWRP (this will take up to 1 hour - let it finish!!), then convert /data to f2fs
Flash the rom, gapps, supersu
If you flash Nougatella remember that you have to turn on wifi right after the language selection during setup or Google framework will crash.

Spend the end of the day doing it, but it worked flawlessly! Thanks a lot @berndblb, now I can use my tablet again!

You'll need to refer to post #8. However, the link to the tf700 stock blob is broken. You'll have to search Google for one. They're out there, but it does require digging .Make sure the one you get is for the proper SKU of your tablet (US, Worldwide, JP, etc.). I completed the process myself maybe a month ago. Good luck!

I got the stock blob ww version.
Just tab doesn't stay on fastboot mode keeps rebooting.
Don't know how to do it.
Is it possible to get stable fastboot screen some how? Or just flash the bootloader to get fastboot working.
May be this noob question but I don't know how to do.
Thanks

There is one more piece to the puzzle- hold short while I dig it up.
Here it is: http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/transformer-pad-infinity-tf700-tegra-3-development/46302-guide-help-my-transformer-tf700-boots-only-recovery.html
Do be *very* careful. Read thrice, do it once. Especially if you're feeling noob-y.

Thanks for this information.
One more question,
My tab is keep bootlooping neither it stays on twrp nor bootloader.
It has blue screen of recovery that is twrp after 5 to 10 seconds it boots again.
Is this enough time to execute the commands while it is on blue screen?
Thanks

Well, that depends on several things. What I did was write a short little DOS batch file to process all the fastboot commands. So, with your batch file ready, open your command prompt (change directory to your adb/fastboot directory if it's not set in system's 'path=' environment variable) and have the batch command typed in, ready to hit enter. Tether to pc via USB, proceed to boot to adb. The second you hear windows make the USB notification sound, slap that enter key. It should just process and reset the tab and get you out of TWRP bootloop. Which is just step one.
If you aren't familiar with writing bat files for DOS, let me know.

You mean a batch file with the adb commands right? Once he can boot into fastboot he has all the time in the world to run the commands for the buster99 (description in post #8). Depending on what situation he came from before, it might be a good idea to start all fresh...
The tricky thing are the adb push bootit.ko and the insmod command. Those have to be timed just right to get executed, so a batch file might come in handy. Both commands only take a second or two to execute, so your window of 5 seconds could work. Maybe not in the same session, but they should work.
If the insmod command does not kick the tablet into the bootloader, there are 2 possible reasoons:
adb push bootit.ko did not work
the insmod command did not work
To find out if the file push worked you could add a simple list command for the contents of /sdcard/. Again - tricky, I know since you still are working with the 5 sec window, but that's what you got to work with...
That would look something like in the attached picture. So after pushing bootit.ko you issue:
Code:
adb shell ls /sdcard/
Try it with the batch file, try it with single commands... Don't give up. As long as you have any kind of adb access you should be able to solve it.
Good luck!

Again, mistake in my terminology. What I meant to say is, batch commands for the process involving the Bootit.ko- the adb portion.
Thanks for clearing that up.
@ketulharini
Anyhow, I was unable to get the process to take without having automated *every last step* of the process. Literally open the cmd window, have the command for your batch file typed in ready to go, and plug in. Hear the noise from windows and slap enter asap. That's the only way I could get it in time, and I'm a ridiculously fast typist.
