[Q] ICS reboot to cwm recovery option?? fix found - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there a software or shortcut that can be used in ICS
to reboot to cwm recovery like we had in previous roms
or software like quick boot/rom manager (have tried these but transformer just reboots)
on a side note I am well aware how to get into cwm via key presses
and some developer will advance the power off options in the near future
just looking for the lazy option
as i guess we will be trying a lot of different roms/updates over the coming days and weeks
thanks
edit fix found

Q: Why not make 2 separate posts?
A1: Normally I'd say "I Didn't feel like it", but its more like "I didn't see the need to."
A2: You all should be adult enough to say which you're using if problems arise.
Q: Why label beta.
A: Cause testing is really needed and I don't count myself as a test.
Q: What works?
A: Flashing, USB mount, wiping.... you know recovery stuff....
Developers:
Q: We've been trying and havent been able to get usb mounting to work... How did you?
A1: I didnt really... I figured the problem didnt come from any of the setup used to build the recovery... but the recovery kernel itself.
A2: I used the stable CWM5504, pulled the kernel from that and used the prebuilt kernel in place of building from source. Hopefully a real genius *cough*kornyone*cough* hits the nail *IF* he ever has spare time. PS thanks to xmcwildchild's stable.

Aside from being the latest, I dont think so. I didnt even remember about Riyal's until you mentioned it otherwise I may have just not done it at all.
ahh yes thanks for making these! i contacted riyal about twrp 2.3, he said he didn't know it was out of beta and that he would look into it (and then i think his phone died?) and now you picked it up! will test and let you know how it goes.
btw does it have offline charging? i remember riyal made an offline charging version of his twrp
---------- Post added at 02:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------
for those who want to flash this but don't know how, here are instructions (from an old recovery thread by xmc_wildchild22
From Terminal Emulator
su
dd if=/sdcard/RECOVERY.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
reboot recovery
From ADB
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot reboot
where "RECOVERY.img" is the respective name of the recovery you want to flash

No, it does what the phone normally does. Orange blinking light where you cant do squat til you take it off the charger.
I also dont know how he did it, and... may not be able to add it myself. :/

Aside from reading somewhere that the newer versions of android(4.2+) will require a recovery update.
Also saw it here too.
Both of these recoveries have installing from sideload, ability to delete backups from within the recovery, higher version numbers(always means better -_-) and some other minor things.
TWRP you can name backups immediately. Full touch interface, extremely theme-able. Works well with GooManager. Queue multiple zips.
CWM has another backup type option dedupe(not a fan of it). Looks better...
Essentially about as technical as going from ICS to JB and JB to new JB. -_-

Exact options would be helpful...
Anyway. If you turned on a theme and the simulate actions for theme testing.
Then I assume the simulate options is what caused the not problem you had.
Before you start creating a custom theme, you should tap on settings and tap the checkbox for "Simulate most actions for theme testing" to enable simualation mode. This setting will cause TWRP to simulate most actions including installing zips, backup, restore, partitioning sdcards, etc. In this mode you can safely test a theme without wearing out the memory chips on your device. There's also a checkbox for simulating failure that will appear on the settings page when you turn on simulation mode. This checkbox will cause TWRP to report a failure for all simulated actions instead of success so that you can provide the appropriate message on the screen. Don't forget to disable simulation mode when you're done!

Is the new CWM or TWRP compatible with the backups done with CWM 5.5.0.4/5.0.2.7? All of my nandroid backups are done with 5.5.0.4.

TWRP is not compatible with CWM and vice versa. The CWM backups should still be compatible. One way to test is to flash, see what happens if it doesnt work... go back? Doesnt kill. I did it when testing and swapped between TWRP and CWM and back to old 5.5.0.4 then back to these again. Now I'm on TWRP, hopefully permanently.
Flashed TWRP and immediately backed up my CM9 nightly without a problem. Mounted USB storage and transferred over a new ROM, went back and forth to bootloader since I'm S-ON, no problem. This recovery doesn't feel beta to me, in a good way. I haven't tried restoring from my backup yet but I'm not worried. I got spoiled using 4EXT on my old phone and going back to CWM never felt right. This TWRP is definitely a step in the right direction. Being able to boot into bootloader from recovery is awesome from a S-ON standpoint. No more waiting to power off and then restart holding buttons or screwing it up and having to remove my case for a batpull. Full touch support speaks for itself.
Thanks so much for getting us a new recovery option. This is the biggest update for our device in a while :good:

Overall they should be stable, I listed them as beta because I cannot account my successes as testing. I would like to see a few more pages before classifying as stable.
I'd also like to possibly build them completely from source at some point too.
@SilverL
I just noticed your thread and I'm glad you saved me time updating my TWRP recovery. I lost all the source code of my previous twrp and was frustrated porting it again from scratch Downloading it now...
By the way the offline charging version of my TWRP is here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1374782&d=1349346744
just extract the ramdisk and you should see the workaround I made. There's no additional binary added. The offline charging I made is just pure shell script and edits on the rc files so it should be pretty easy for you.
Regarding a full compile use a CM7 kernel and add the doubleshot board files and drivers and you should be good to go. Also I used the boardconfig of MT4G(non slide).
Anyways the boardconfig isn't the issue but the kernel. The USB driver of ICS isn't compatible with twrp and that's the issue. Even Dees_Troy couldn't even make a build with fully working USB on CM9

Thanks, I figured it needed a gb kernel to do its thing. Especially after I realize the android usb kernel driver is also responsible for adb(which didnt work either). Also its not just with twrp, it affects cwm as well. Both of these use the exact same kernel.
If getting an old kernel if required then I wont even worry about it. I'll just keep my CM10 build environment the way it is just in case I have to update these in the future. I will also check out the shell script and the rc edit. Thanks, if you want to take twrp back its all yours.

Can't do anything as of the moment since I don't have any working MT4GS at hand. Also I have lots of different projects planned so I might leave twrp to you as it is here.

I'll try to throw this in for the guys that want it....
And since no one has complained(except for that one guy who couldnt flash because he put his phone in the 'feature' to simulate those events rather than actually do them) or died. I'll consider these stable.
Might also have to add my usual, "I am a jerk. Will laugh at you if you do something dumb, etc." disclaimer to this as well since.... most people dont know that I am. -_-
Flashed CWM 6!!!
everything is fine
however, transfering titanium backup files from pc to microsd class 10 is kinda of slow when i mounted it as usb storage inside the recovery
and
thank you for your good work. What's next? CWM touch?

cwm 6.0.3.3 is out for I9505

hey all, as the title states. cwm 6.0.3.3 is now available to flash through rom manager. just flashed a few new zip's and did a backup and restore without issues. I thought I would create this topic due to the fact there are so many questions floating around about different and stable recovery's for this model. happy flashing!
Thx.
Used SGS4 Flasher to flash it.
Everything works.

Available through rom manager? Bull. I get the "blah blah unsupported blah blah" message.
Downloaded manually from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
It shows 'ClockworkMod 6.0.3.3' (after restart) and it works.
Hi,
I just bought ClockworkMod ROM Manger in the google store, simply to support the great work done.
But now I'm a little disapointed, the 6.0.3.3. supported for my I9505 is not in there, even if it is an official release (not as touch nor normal)
and
I can not find things like the cyanogen mod stuff in the ROMs area like I was used to even in the freeware for my former I9100 before.
Is the support/update within this tool so slow or even have you stopped updating the content of the ROM Manager?!
As I said I'm a bit disapointed now!
Around 5€ for that is a bit much then, isn't it?!
CWM touch you can get for free in here and the reboot to download/recovery can be set by a menue update which can be flushed.
So whats the tool then good for and worth 5€?!

Just purchased can i root JOP40D.WW.epad-10.6.1.27.1-20130711 ?

Hi, I just purchased a TF300 from ebay (arrived this morning).. My first task was to try and root it and I've been at it all day without success. I've trawled many forums, used search bars galore and don't know what to do. I've tried Motochopper (which I now know doesn't work) along with other various apps to no avail. I've even unlocked the machine thinking that would help but no.
Obviously this wont have been rooted before so where does it leave me? What are my options? I'm rather new to android (only got my Galaxy S4 a month ago) but i'm learning quick.. just a bit frustrated as to where to go now..
any help greatly appreciated
Thanks

you could unlock your bootloader and flash a custom rom that will really improve the tablets performance but you do void your warrenty (although you might not have one as you bought off ebay)

well first you unlock your bootloader with the app from the asus site, the use fast to install a custom recovery (twrp 2.5.0.0) the use twrp to flash the custom rom, and if you flash cromi-x it looks completely stock the only difference is if you go into settings and look at the about tablet tab then it says cromi-x in the build tab, there is a step by step guide to getting twrp installed and ill talk you through installing cromi-x if you want but it isreally easy

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
I'll be doing a little research before root/rom tonight!
Super excited and can't wait to see what's the potential I'll be unlocking from my tablet.
Was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I've downloaded the unlock from Asus's
Threw it on the SDcard, ran the unlock
I believe it's unlocked, because it says at the top right that device is not locked
I tried this -
Hold Power + Vol Down until a message appears (it doesn't appear anymore on Jelly Bean bootloader) ("Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)") : DON'T PRESS VOL UP
After 5 seconds, a new menu appears (if it's not already there). Press Vol Down once to change to the USB icon, then press Vol. Up to validate (you have to do this in less than 10 seconds, otherwise your tablet will boot Android OS)
But I don't see the option to press/select the USB Icon
I am using the Jelly Bean 4.2
Any tips or pointers

Now I'm thinking of trying - CROMi-X 5.0.3 ODEX/DEODEX 10.6.1.27.1

I was totally tossed up on using either CWM or TWRP, I'll load up TWRP and give you a progression update afterwards.
Thanks for the tip.

Yeah I've been looking around and what not, been tossed up on CyanogenMod and the Cromi-X , but I think the features from the Comi-X suites me more.
I'll keep you posted after I test it out, going to do a Nandroid Backup now and install the rom
Curious
I'm just going through the setup/installation process for Cromi-X
Do we have to reflash the ROM to go through the setup, OR can we select some of those options again after the installation?
Such as DSP Manager, X-Loud, and some of the other minor tweaks
Doesn't seem tooo tedious to backup and restore, but I wouldn't want to reflash all the time just to adjust some settings....
Or it's just part of the deal of ROM's.......
All in all, Cromi-X has been installed and I am stoked.
Benchmark Results Request
So I got Comi-X installed
Does anyone have any benchmark results that I can compare to?
Using AnTuTu Benchmark atm and I'm hitting about mid 14000's.
Not sure if that's what this tablet can output to.

if you want to change any settings mate just reflash the rom and choose to wipe the dalvic cache while going through the settings there is no need to do a full wipe for that and benchmarks aren't everything mate but most people use quadrant, and goddly has gotten over 7000 on that which is crazy high, he got it using thats overclock kernel that was built for the tf700, but hunds kernel can be overclocked and that is built for the tf300 but im using thats v4 kernel which cant be overclocked but i dont think it needs to be and the battery life on thats kernel is crazy good and my tablet is well over a year old

Hmmm ok
Just curious where would I be able to find other Kernels?
I'm using hunds kernel that came with Cromi-X rom (I'm guessing)
Thanks for all the help btw, totally learning everything quickly.

in the second post of the cromi thread there is a kernel and tweaks installer but here is the link to it any way because im really nice lol
http://d-h.st/zDx
if you use thats kernel for the tf300 then try the undervolt option to give you even better battry life but if you use hunds and want to overclock it then its best to try the overvolt option to increase stability

Took me a few minutes to find it and a few hoops to jump through to extract the archive, but the official apk is still out there. Try to install this:

You are welcome.
Rest assured you do have a bootloader. You may not have the bootloader interface the other Transformers have and possibly there is no way to get fastboot to work on this thing - I don't know.
There is no custom rom for this tablet, and if you do not want to loose 4G you cannot use one made for another Transformer either (no idea if that is even possible, I do not know the KL).
Your best bet is to gain root and uninstall a bunch of cr**, maybe use Greenify - I don't know. Very limited what you can do on stock....
I seem to recall that people got root with Framaroot on this thing. Google it, the info is out there. If I can find it so can you

ok let me get to the keypoints here that made me ask for help, and so you'll see that i'm not just a lazy person that doesn't use google
1) Some people they say that the KL can accept all the roms of the Tf700T. for example katkiss is saying to use one of their roms
1.a) some say that it will brick the device.
so, first question here, what will happen if i'll get a custom rom of the TF700T?
2) some people say that I should have a version of the "unlock bootloder" after unlocking with the asus app.
Well I don't have anything, I just have a small phrase which is "device unlocked" and that's it. nothing else.
3) some say on google that there is a cyanogen mod for the KL. Unfortunately cyanogenmod wiki and forum are down, so I can't find either assistance, either the files.
nothing to do here, then.
4) let's say I'll follow your guide, and i'll flash a custom rom. will I lose the 4g?
4.a) how can I get to the old rom, even original, in order to get 4g back?
5) about root: i managed to root it a long time ago. Unfortunately, even disabling most of the package and all the bloatware, the device really sucks.
that's the main reason why I abandoned there 3 years ago. now it's full of dust, and as I've been working a lot, I wanted to get it back with basic functions, but without waiting 10 seconds from the moment i press on APPS BUTTON and the actual time for which I see the apps page.
so, here's my google searching experience.

I'd say the first question is: Is there a compatible custom recovery for the KL and how to install it? I do not know that there ever was a custom recovery made for the KL and using one made for another Transformer may or may not brick your device. I do not see a single post from anyone stating that they successfully installed a custom rom or recovery on the KL, so my guess is: It cannot be done unless you develop a custom recovery for this tablet and find a way to flash it.
2) some people say that I should have a version of the "unlock bootloder" after unlocking with the asus app.

Well, there's the first difference to other Transformers: Most of them have a bootloader menu from where you can boot into recovery or into Android and perform a data wipe. Booted into the bootloader you also have fastboot access. The KL does not seem to have any of this. Do you have fastboot working on your PC? Try it, boot with Vol down or Vol Up and then check if you have fastboot access to the tablet. I doubt it....

I've only seen post users expressing hope or wishes for CM for the KL. I don't think there ever was a working CM rom for the KL

You cannot follow my guide unless you figure out a way to get fastboot working. You could try to flash TWRP recovery using their app or Flashify, but which TWRP?? Which version might be compatible with your bootloader? Nobody knows it seems. But heck! What have you got to loose? You are not going to use the tablet in its current state anyway, so if you brick it - who cares?
But to answer your question: Yes, you would definitely loose the 4G. The software for your modem has its own partition and no rom made for the wifi-only Transformers even knows this partition exists, let alone about the hardware
4.a) how can I get to the old rom, even original, in order to get 4g back?

Again: Untested territory. If you had a custom recovery or fastboot you might be able to flash the Asus firmware in either. Maybe
you won't believe me
I was away for 1 month
got back
installed framaroot
installed greenify
now it runs with like 10 apps total (including the keyboard)
tablet STILL UNUSABLE, takes 1 minutes to open youtube, 2 mins to open play store
Id really like to brick it rather than keep it like that

I then flashed the TWMR
when i rebooted it said
"no usb connected"
i then connected to the PC
and it say
"READY FOR DOWNLOAD" with an android picture
i can't boot it up again
what should i do now?
when i now do the FASTBOOT DEVICES command on pc, I see the serial of the asus
it's the first time fastboot sees it
I tried doing "fastboot update kitkatnougatellaxxxx.zip"
but it say that android-info.txt & android-product.txt not find so not flashable
what now, then? I can't even use it with the old OS
You need to boot into the TWRP that you flashed, hold the volume button down and press the power button (hold both) until you get the fastboot screen, the square with [RCK] should be blinking. Now press the volume up button to enter the TWRP recovery console. - NP

I just did flashifty with the latest TMWR recovery for TF700T
help pliz
best bet would be to do a factory reset, I don't believe this rom will work on the KL model. - NP
it doesn't even allow the factory reset, as if i press it it gives the NO USB CONNECTED screen
i'd say it's bricked

Try selecting [1] "Enter SD down mode" which is Enter SD download mode and see if you get to the next menu. - NP
I can't
I mean it doesn't get to the next menu
I've been trying to find the threads on how to re-flash the stock ASUS ROM from the SD cardseeing this is the only way to get the TF700k working but I can't find it know. It involved have the ROM in the root directory on the SDcard and giving it a specific name, this name triggers the tablet to update itself. - NP
