Hello all,
I was doing some test with the new TrickDroid as beta tester and the last time i came into TWRP recovery I got screwed. I did only a Factory reset (my log says that) but my sdcard is formatted too). I tried to mount my sd with computer (that works) and tried to recovery my data with GetDataBack, but it's all gone.
I had to format my sd card, did that and placed a rom on it. But TWRP doesn't see the ROM file on my sd card. So I want to go to bootloader to push a ROM to sd card, cause I wiped all my data and I need a ROM to start.
But I can't close that fuuuu TWRP. I can't reboot, it says you have to install a ROM first (yeah but how, sd card formatted and it doesn't recognize files on it). I tried the power button + volume down button in TWRP to shut off my phone, but that button is used in recovery to lock your recovery.
At the end, how I can get my phone off and push a ROM? I'm on 70% battery, it will take 24h before that's gone.
EDIT: Oke I wiped my sdcard within TWRP and guess what? It sees my sdcard with the ROM I placed on it in mounted mode. That's not a wipe isn't it? It's only a bring back your sd card like before. Maybe I'm just a noob but I can't trust that TWRP recovery.

i was using rom maneger, downloading roms ans stuff.. so the phone asked to be rebooted and i did.. and now im stock on the white screen with the htc logo in the middle.. plz help me!!
I'm assuming you can still boot into hboot? If so, you can copy a new ROM to your SD card and then install from there.
>Vol Down
>Power on while holding Vol Down
>Select Recovery and you should get CWM
>Install zip from SD card
>Choose zip from SD card
If CWM isn't working for you, then you can install this ROM as it autoloads through hboot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965634
If you can't get into hboot, then you probably have fastboot enabled. Pull the battery and then you should be able to >Vol Down and >Power to get there.
Thank you so much i couldnt go into recovery so i installed the rom that you said and its working fine!!
Dont worry this is not a problem. You probably have the wrong recovery image. Flash CM7 Cryangenmod 7 from the dev section. Once in there open rom Manager and flash recovery 2.1.3.5 at the bottom of the app.
steps
1 pull the battery, then put it back in
2 Hold the vol button down at the same time you are holding the power button.
3 Select recovery
4 Select CM7 from the sd card and flash it.
5 once it starts up flash the other recovery.
6 Now flash the rom you wanted from your sd card.
7 before you do Make sure you wipe everything. Card Partition, Dalvik, data factory reset.
I tried installing the latest CM7 ROM release. The install went fine and then I installed the recommended PG58IMG.zip update through fastboot. No issues.
However, now the phone won't boot past the HTC screen. This doesn't concern me all that much because I just want to boot into recovery, do a full wipe then install the ROM again to fix the issue.
However, I can't get into recovery because the phone keeps wanting to flash the radio update file in fastboot. How can i bypass this? I currently have no way of getting the PG58IMG.zip file off the sd card.
Thanks for the help!

Have you tried to plug your phone into your computer, bring up adb and type adb reboot recovery?
Delete the file off the SD card and try again

Do you have a micro sdcard reader on your computer, or in the alternative, an adapter for your sdcard that will allow you to plug your sdcard into your computer? If so, you can pull the sdcard from your phone, hook it up to your computer, delete the PG58IMG.zip file, and reboot to recovery so you can install the rom again.
**EDIT**
When asked if you want to apply the radio update, why can't you press volume down for "No" and reboot to recovery? I can't remember if this is an option or not so just thought I'd throw this out there...
1. - Open the back cover
2. - Remove the SD Card
3. - Pull the battery out for 5 secs and put it back in
4. - Put the cover back on
5. - Press Vol Down and Power at the same time. Keep holding on Vol Down till you
6. - Select Recovery
7. - Wipe Cache
8. - Put your SD Card back in
9. - Reboot phone and its all working again.

Post the answer here
Second topic today, first one was a bit impatient of me. I've got everything done correctly, CWM flashed, everything rooted, and everything works.
I've notice one thing, though. I cannot reboot, in anyway, back into recovery. "adb reboot recovery" does indeed reboot the device, but it never makes it into recovery, only boots as normal. Rebooting recovery from CWM(Advanced > Reboot Recovery) does the same thing. Is there a reason for this, and how would I fix this? (I'm going to assume it's a bootloader issue. Next question on that, is CyanoBoot released for the TF101?)
Second thing I have a question on is how I would flash a .zip located on the external SD card. Anytime I try to select a zip from the external, it never shows up, and only shows things from internal storage. I'm currently running Roach2010's v5.5.0.4 CMW.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Use "Transformer reboot to recovery" app, look in the play store.
or manually by holding Vol down plus power button, when you see words at to left corner, immediately push Vol up within 5 secs to get into recovery.
Roach's 5.5.0.4 version only read the internal sd.
Either move the files internally our use a cwm version that read the external sd card
Thanks for that. As soon as I find how to flash just normal CWM, I'll get to that.

first, I would place the stock ROM on your SDcard. you can take the SDcard and do it, or download it normally.
power off the phone, then press and hold the volume up, home, and power buttons simultaneously. release the power button only when you see the Samsung logo. you should then see the CWM menu, navigate down to data wipe/factory reset, then install your stock ROM.
If you are on EP4D - I would flash this in CWM - it includes stock kernel and recovery as well. Then you can take the OTAs to get to FP1 and then to FP5 if you want.
How do i flash to cwm ?/
Do i take file in put onto SD card ? And if so what are the next steps ?
Thansk for helping.

Did you mount /system before flashing?
EDIT: And my bad on the data wipe warning - that's supposed to say if you haven't yet you should.
what do you mean by mount/system ????
Is that the EP4DStock zip on SD card... YES I did that .
My phone wont even recharge either and remmeber the USB is still not being reconized ...
SO My phone is bricked.... Now what Its still under warranty and i do have Asurion protection.

once you get into the CWM, navigate down to "mounts/storage", then "Mount System" after selecting this, it will then read, "unmount system"
then, you should install the EP4DStock.zip
