That's the way it is.
Go back to the one you had before if you want to flash from microSD.

OK but how can I do it?
I have the old CWM recovery file file but I'm unable to load it from SD card Also i can not run file manager to move files to internal storage

Transfer it from your computer to your TF's internal storage?

OK thenk you It worked
I had a problem with conecting my Trasformer with PC using USB but BT did the job BTW witch ROM would you sugest to use with my TF101G I want to use my 3G card. Right now i use Revolution HD but 3G is not working

Yes the 5.5.0.4 and 5.8.1.8 flash file from the internal storage.
It work great, just keep in mind NOT to use something like the Superwipe script
as it will wipe everything from the internal storage, leaving you with nothing to flash and no OS.

Go back in your sd card and make sure the rom files are there. Its possible that u placed them in the internal memory so check both

Hey hi thanks i was using Flash CWM 4.0.1.5
but then i try
Flash CWM 5.0.2.0 and i was able to flash it.
thanks for the reply.
Did you download the rom using your phone or PC... reason I ask is if you used your phone to download the rom its saved in the download folder... I use my phone to download my roms...also if your promise on the external SD just choose install from SD, if its on your internal SD then you would choose install from internal SD... there's also a download folder on internal SD .. you can check there also...

4.0.1.5 is set up to use the internal memory. You can only flash from the internal pseudo "sdcard" and any CWM backups will be stored in the same internal memory.
5.0.2.0 lets you flash from either the pseudo internal "sdcard" of the "external sdcard." But when you do backups of your rom they will only be stored on the external sd card.
Use 5.0.2.0. It is better and more versatile in my opinion but you need an external sd card to fully utilize it.
Also, I wish people would stop misusing the term bricked. A true brick is a phone that does NOTHING when you press the power button. I did this once to an A71 variant phone and the phone was very dead. The condition you have is more like you "borked" your phone. The phone powers on so it is not dead, so it is not bricked. Plus as long as you can get into recovery I would not even consider your condition a "soft brick." A soft brick is when the phone is borked and takes extraordinary measures to revive it, but it is still fixable. A better post would have been "My phone is messed up. Need help reviving it."
Your title is fine, is has the word "maybe" in it. He's just one of those people..

SD card doesn't show up in Recovery

Hey guys,
I tried to flash my Eee Pad to official ROM and wiped everything off the tablet and when I tried to flash a ROM from my external SD card, the menu would go into the internal SD card only.
My tablet is stuck on the ASUS logo at the moment and it won't shut off nor will it recognize the external SD card necessary for me to flash a ROM.
What can I do?
In recovery...enable USB mount...plug to CPU...transfer the flashable zip to internal SD...
I'm on ClockworkMod Recovery v.5.5.0.4... I'm not seeing that option anywhere.
It's not under Mounts and Storage? Hmm. I used that recovery for only a minute...so not sure if that option was taken out....
I use Rogue version of the recovery. Its older...but for most of us normal flashers...it works well...it also includes the option to flash from external.
Is there anyway to transfer files from my PC to the tablet?

All fixed now! Used the NVflash and just fixed everything. Whew!

5.5.0.4 only read from internal sd
Well doesn't matter now since I used nvflash to revert back to stock but I'll keep that mind if there is a next time. Thanks.

[Q] Installing ROMs

Do I have to have a microSD card to install a ROM? I have the keyboard dock and a regular SD card (or USB flash drive) but I don't know if installing ROMs with the keyboard docked is potentially dangerous.
The latest CWM version from Roach2010 let you flash from internal sd storage.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213723
Whatever you do DO NOT use the CWM from ROM Manager and DO NOT use
Superwipe script.
Uh Oh?
I went ahead and used ROM Manager to flash CWM. It let me use the internal SD and I'm currently typing this on CM9. Why do you recommend not using ROM Manager?

Most peoples who use the CWM version from ROM Manager get recovery boot loop.
Meaning it will keep booting into recovery but if it's working for you than it's good.

[Q] I cannot boot into my ROM (recovery only). How to restore ROM and boot into it?

Hi,
I'm running an Transformer TF101 with Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.8.3.4.
However some time ago I removed the zip file with the ROM from within the SD Card memory space - that of course being actually the internal 16GB of storage and not a MicroSD.
Since I cannot boot into any ROM and I haven't got a zip file with my ROM on my Internal Storage, what do I have to do to install a ROM back onto my transformer. It seems that unless I boot into the ROM itself (which by the looks of things has been wiped) I cannot access the internal memory storage.
Please help. How do I fix this and make it running again?
I have a very similar issue. I can boot to the ROM but there doesn't seem to be a launcher so throws up a load of errors.
Essentially I cannot access any external memory in the ROM or recovery so need the same instructions.
Cheers

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688012 Follow the instructions in this thread. This will completely wipe your device and bring it back to stock no matter what SBK version of TF you have. You can then also choose to install a custom recovery as well as root it all from right here. Then you can install a custom rom back on. I also recommend using a recovery that uses the internal storage or external as it is much safer. You can always take out the SD, put a rom on it, replace it and boot into recovery. Much easier than using Easy Flash.

[Q] Not sure where im @?

Hi I'm a little bit confused and lost between stock recovery, cwm, rom manager and my new SD card.
I browsed 100s of threads and watch alot of good and some not so good videos but 'im still not sure what my best next moves are and why some things dont work.
I have a

Kernel 3.0.31-1032335 [email protected]#1SMP PEEMPT Mon March11 ..KST 2013
Build JZO54K.I9300XXEMC2
I wanted to use apps like Titanium BackUpPro and Avast so I rooted my phone flashing CWM v3.55 via Odin and have been using it with out any problems for a while.
Then I decided that I would like to flash a custom rom like cm and I downloaded Rom Manager thinking it to be the right tool... ?
I let Rom Manager flash the latest version of CWM recovery 6.0.4.6 ...
but when I look on the apps on my phone I find CWM v3.55-Chainfire ? and
if I try to update I get directed to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238
When booting in rcovery mode my phone enters the android system recovery e3 and I get an Error message:
E:faild to mount /data (invalid agrument)
What exactly does this mean ???
Should I try flashing CWM 6 non toutch via Odin or flash back stock ROM?
I thought I would try backing up to an ext SD card so I orderd a SanDisc mircosd 64GB card but the problem still remains.
I still cant back up my ROM using ROM Manager or CWM
Why ? What happend?
I tried formating the SD card with ROM Magager but SD card fails to load. I tried formating with gparted fat32. Still wont load...
The ext SD card shows up in the file exlporer on my phone just fine but
I can't seem to be able to get Rom Manager to recognize it and CWM recovery isn't working.
So instead of backin up my exsiting ROM to the SD card maybe it would be a better idea to install CWM and CM to the SD card
and keep my ROM on the internal SD as it is???
I tried creating a bootable ext sd card with CWM and CM like here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_acclaim
but when it comes to booting the phone in recovery mode I still get the E:faild to mount /data (invalid agrument) message....?
How do I boot from ext sd card?
Whats my next best move?
I have a working rooted ROM on my local SD card with all my apps backed up in clowd. But my recovery mode issue remains to be resolved.
and I have a 64GB ext SD card with CWM and CM on it but I can't install with Rom Manager? because SD card fails to load.
Thanks for trying to follow so far!!!!

Yep, follow it,
And yes- both backup and exSD use (called sdCard0 in the recovery), here's the developer's thread & guide:

Easy way to flash CWM or Touch wiz is to download EZ-Recovery from the play store, open the app scroll to recovery, click recovery and choose which one you want and click flash. Done. I personally like TW.
