I had put my transformer back to stock for the ICS update. I have now installed that and rooted but I do not have recovery. Powering up while hold down vol does nothing. What is the correct way to flash that?
After I get that I want to flash a kernel to OC again.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

You can find Roach2010's CWM Recovery installer APK floating around the forum, or there is also Rogue XM Recovery that works. I have not experience with that one. Roach's you can just install the APK from the tablet and you are good to go.
Also, some searching around the forum you would note that ASUS has not released the kernel source. This means that dev's cannot compile a custom kernel, and no OCing for ICS yet.
Thank you.
I did search and just thought I was wrong about the kernel.

Rogue XM Recovery is the preferred recovery. Much better than Roaches.
ICS Kernels... don't exist until ASUS releases source for ICS kernel.
RecoveryInstaller (both version)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22359727&postcount=218
I tried both and the apps just freeze...
Any other ideas? I need my cwm back!!!
Whatever you do, DONT use the one that comes with ROM Manager off the market.
It caused mine and a couple of others to bootloop recovery.
If you have B60 and below series, you could NVflash Rogue recovery. This is what I did to install CWM after updating to ICS.

And some of the early B70 builds too. Mine, for example.

Ok, so i tried razorclaw and installed the Revolver custom rom on my tablet. Only to realize the difference was not worth it. I kind of want to return to stock right now, but i am unsure how to do it?
I've seen several "return to stock" threads, but most of them warn about doing it on a B70 device.
So, now what?
Is it possible to just download the latest FW from the asus site, put it on the tablet and start into the recovery?
I have Clockwork recovery and latest revolver on the tablet at the moment.

Try this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341533 may have clues to other threads.
Also...next time remember to Backup your current ROM before flashing a new one...just in case you don't like the changes...you can easily restore your previous.

First thing you should do is run SBK detect to see if you have SBK v1 or SBK v2.
If you have SBK v1 you can use NVFlash to go back to stock.
SBK v2 you can NOT use NVFlash.
Reasoning behind the warning is if you get soft brick you can not use NVFLash if you have SBK v2.

So, catolh, this returned your b70 to stock then? Could you descibe exactly what you did. I have looked at the site and done a lot of research on it, but still seem to read mixed results.

Basically i used a repacked fw, so i could flash it through cwm, boot up to welcome screen, reboot to cwm again, and flash the repacked asus recovery. From there it was like a stock transformer

Hi all, I'm on a Transformer b90 running the .19 kernal with root. For some reason when I open rom manager I tap on flash recovery and see no option to flash for the Transformer? Is there a special rom mananger I have to use? I've searched and can't find any thread or problem like mine... Any help would be awesome and i'll honor you like a god.
ROM Manager is not compatible with the Transformer.
Use RecoveryInstaller by Gnufabio
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19319421
Rom manager does not work on he transformer, search the market for RecoveryInstaller and intall it. it will put CWM on your system. Another program you will want Boot to recovery to make it easy to boot into CWM.

Thank you both very much I love you! (no homo)
Apologies for being noob in TF (my first Android thing).
I've been playing with my TF101 B80 with updated ICS 4, successfully rooted with ViperMod, installed Revolver 4 beta (9.2.1.11)by gnufabio..
My question:
How can I safely revert back to Stock Rom with root?
Bit afraid to try any Stock Rom posted everywhere without advise from pros.
Thanks.
nvflash it, its the safest way i know of, but you have to have sbk1 but if you dont want to loose data flash it in CWM, wipe dalvik, and then flash it, unless your transformer implodes, but go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334673here if you flash via cwm, its alot easier

I have seen this posted here, and elsewhere.
Simple - Go to the ASUS Support site and download the latest ICS firmware for your version (WW, US, JP, TW, CN, etc).
Unzip the file 1 time (it will still be a zip file) and place it on a microSD card.
Boot into CWM recovery.
Choose zip from SD
Select the zip from the microSD
Once it finishes installing you will be back to 100% stock unrooted ROM and it will also flash back to stock recovery.
Thanks.

I have a TF300 with OTA Jelly Bean, unlocked, rooted and with ClockWorkMod Recovery installed, i want to know what is the best recovery to flash ROMS (ex: Hydro JB).

I don't know that there is best. They both do it. I'm a new user of recovery in general, and I chose cwm. Twrp seems to have a tad more under the hood, like a keyboard built in, but both will get the job done for you.

Usually am pretty good at this stuff but just got this device and can't figure out what I'm missing.
The drivers seem to be working okay, the bootloader says its unlocked, I am on stock JB which I am going to the right forums for.. Just can't get into recovery. I use power and down volume and then up volume and I just get the error Android. Let me know if anyone has suggestions or what I am missing please.
First off you should have posted this in the Q&A section, not Development.
Anyway, have you flashed any recovery? Or have you just unlocked the device?
Look here for installing recovery
Hope that helps :fingers-crossed:
What recovery did you install? Do you have a custom recovery? The native recovery expects its files in a specific directory and will throw an error ("dead Andy") if there are none there. Can you get the 70 to connect by USB, and detected?
In order to flash anything, you must install a custom recovery. You cannot use the stock recovery as it will only flash stock roms. You can either use ClockworkMod or TWRP. To flash it onto your tf700 you must use fastboot which is not hard if you find a detailed guide.

I had CWM installed but just installed twrp instead to see if that helped but I cannot get into recovery. I am doing the volume down and power and get a screen with 4 images in the center and then it goes to dead android.

Apparently you never installed a custom recovery. How did you try to install it? With fastboot?

Yes I used Scott's tf700t recovery install tool.
Moved to correct board ..
Are you actually unlocked? You are still on the stock recovery if you see a dead android.
Try this if you are unlocked
