Hi, i have a question about the install, it is said the latest recovery is needed.
I experimented some troubles on my transformers, my recovery was blocked, but i found a post here to install another. So i was able to install ics by recovery.
That is nice but i want the aokp rom, i tried on my sgs and i would like to have on my tf. I'm ok with the flash, i did 200 times on the 3 sgs at home, so i'm not new to this.
The recovery i now have on my tf is the rogue XM recovery 1.3.0 (CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7)
can i use this recovery to flash the aokp or do i need to update to another recovery, if yes, plz tell me how to do.
Thx

Release page.
Just flash the .zip file in CWM, no need to use AROMA or other fancy stuff.
Thx, that worked for the install, got a bootloop, but after a wipe and flash again, it worked.
But now, another problem, i'm in france, my dock is phisically in azerty, but when used, it is in qwerty.
Edit : i found the option, so no more problem with dock, i can enjoy the aokp as i did on my sgs.

Hey guys, I just flashed and rooted my phone--primarily to install Arabic fonts in order to read Arabic text and websites. However, the characters are not appearing right to left as they should and the letters should be connected.
So I was reading and I was reading that installing the latest Cyanogen rom 4.2.15 and then applying an update will solve this problem. However, I cannot find out where to download this version of Cyanogen. I've tried to look for it, but I can't find it, can somebody please point me to the right direction? Does anybody know if even installing this does indeed solve this problem?
(I cannot post the link to the thread that is telling me to do it...the system won't allow it since I'm a new user)
Next time, post this in the Q&A section.
And, I just googled it, and this is what I found.
Not sure if this does what you're asking for, but it's worth a shot. To install this, I'm pretty sure you just flash CM 4.2.15, and then flash this on top of it.
I don't know if CM 4.2.15 will solve your problem, but here is where you can download it.

That zip has a bunch of extra files you won't need. It's taken from this guide http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/Operating-System-Software/GUIDE-New-very-easy-way-to-root-G1-even-if-it-has-1-6-android/td-p/237395. It does have what you're looking for, in cm421.zip.
Thank you both soooo much for the quick responses. I'm currently testing this out and will update with my situation...btw this should work for the Mytouch 3G as well right?

Yes, it will work for the MT3G, assuming that you have a 32B.
And you're welcome.
Wait...another quick question. Do I have to go through flash rec, or can I go straight to installing the zip?

Well, if you already used flash rec, then you have a recovery already installed on your phone. So if you have used that already, turn off your phone, and then press Home+Power to boot into recovery. You should be able to just flash the zip from there.
However, you might be using an outdated recovery. I would recommend switching to the newest Amon_RA recovery if you are on an outdated one. Instructions for installing that recovery are in his post in the MyTouch 3G Android Development section.
Alright, so I downloaded that .zip with the CM mod. I went to the home + power button menu and installed that zip. Once that was done, I installed that Arabic update zip u provided earlier and then rebooted. It's on the Mytouch 3G screen for about five minutes, is this normal?
EDIT: I wiped my factory settings and reinstalled the cm mod 4.2. It boots up fine. Do I have to rename that Arabic zip to update.zip then go to the update.zip option and update use that?
I downloaded it to see what the contents are. Yes, you'll want to flash it in the same way you flashed CM, which is from recovery. Be sure to do a nandroid backup in order to restore things later if it doesn't work out for you.
By the way, I'm not sure if that rom I gave you is 4.2.15 or 4.2.1. For future reference, you can find all the builds including 4.2.15 here: http://mirror.kanged.net/cm/stable/
If you want a better recovery I suggest either Amon Ra: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=721792 or Clockwork: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639153
I personally use Amon Ra, however Clockwork has an app-based GUI, allowing you to flash updates like this one a little bit easier. I still use that CM 4.2.1 on a regular basis, occasionally flashing the new CM6 nightly builds. I find 4.2.1 to be very fast and stable, with Swap enabled and Zeam launcher.
Ahhh you gave me CM 4.2.1 which is why that Arabic rom didn't work properly lol...thanks for the mirror links, I'll download and install CM 4.2.15 right now and apply that Arabic update to see what comes of it...hopefully the end of my problems
Great news, it works perfectly now! The mirror link you gave me for CM 4.2.15 and the arabic rom is fully installed perfectly.
Though I have a question about Amon_RA recovery. I downloaded the .img file so with this, I'm I suppose to go into Flash Recovery and insert the path of the .img file then flash it that way? I think this is the way to go, but I'd like to confirm it just in case it's not and something happens

If you have CM 4.2.15, you should have an app called Terminal Emulator. Place the .img file on the root of your sdcard, and type this into Terminal Emulator.
Code:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recoveryname.img
Obviously, replace "recoveryname.img" with the name of the recovery you are trying to use.
Press enter at the end of each line, and to see if it flashed, press home+power, and you should see your new recovery. If you ever have any problems with flashing a recovery, use fastboot. It's the safest way to flash recoveries, but it requires adb to be setup on your computer. I'm glad everything is working fine now.
Excellent, it worked out fine. The only problem was that I couldn't type numbers in my terminal (something that I thought would be fixed in this version of CM), but I renamed it to recovery.img and it worked out fine. I"m now updating Nandroid, BART, and Google just to be on the safe side of things.
Now I have to repeat this for the G1, which is a bit more complicated with the radio and SPL settings
Thanks a lot for everything guys, this is such a great community, I'm definitely sticking around on this forum
Hi guys, I'm using the CM9 ICS with my transformer and I was trying to install a different kernels without any success at all. I've booted into CWM (V5) and installed from sd card but when I restart the machine, It's always with the same kernel. Can someone suggest how to make it work?
How long does the install take? That should give some insight onto what it is doing

Just to be sure, CWM v5 will not read external uSD card, only the internal storage /sdcard. May I know the kernel you are installing?
It takes about a minute to install.
I've tried a few:
TesteyMeh ICS 0.7
Blades
Others...
All of them seem to install fine but when rebooting I see the same kernel version and I cant OC.
have u tried wiping the cache and dalvik before flashing them?

A minute is way too long. Kernels only take like 3 seconds cuz they are small.
Try mount /system under mounts and storage before flashing the kernel.

Flashing a new kernel takes a few seconds. After reboot please pay attention to the blue indicator below the Android figure. It this not appears something went wrong with the first stage of the flashing process, invalid image/zip file etc.
Please use the customized CWM version, just not the flashed one from the Rom manager. I'v good experiences with the R2 (internal sdcard only) as well with the R1 (external micro-sdcard only). I preferred the R1 version.
Btw I'v have the best experiences with my TF101G with the CM9 build of March 29 combined with the quevor-test8 (just NOT from the guevor thread but ONLY from the thread of Richard because it's compiled for CM9) kernel, no reboots and no deep sleeps anymore while 3G and Wifi is working fine. Please do not wipe or clear something before flashing the new kernel to prevent Wifi problems. And I'v the best experiences not using the reboot system now from CWM but using power down and switch on the TF manually.
antond57:
i too have been having trouble getting kernels to allow overclocking...i flash one, all looks ok but when i get to tablettop the kernel info appears unchanged and setcpu wont clock past 1000.
could you maybe please post links to the rom and kernel you used? im having trouble locating the Richards R1 and R2 versions. i would like to see if i can repeat your success w/ these versions.
much appreciated.
I have same issue except worse yesterday. I'm on latest CM9. I tried to flash guevro test 9 and I did wipe both cache. Using roach 2 recovery. Just stayed on Asus screen. Blue bar did pop up and take a second or so but nothing. Checked md5 and all was good.
I had to totally flash ROM again after a full wipe because even a restore from recovery wouldn't go past very first Asus screen. I'm not sure what happened but I'm definitely now worried about trying a new kernel again

Yap, I have the same problem. Nandroid restore did not restore to the previous state. For me, re-flash the ROM fixed the problem (no full-wipe).
Try Using clockwork recovery
I have just flashed guevor kernel as well with no problems. I'm using clockwork mod recovery. Have you tried it?
Hi,
On my TF300T I flashed the CWM 5.5.0.4 using fastboot and installed CM 9.1 with the CWM - boots & works fine
I want to install CM10 or 10.1 (using the steps I found in the CM Wiki) but the TF300T always stops on "The Device is unlocked".
Now I found a new CWM (6.0.2.3, recovery-jb.img) for using with JB here at xda-developers - finally to install CM10 or 10.1.
But after flashing the recovery-jb.img with fastboot I want to boot into recovery mode, but the TF300T stops on "booting recovery kernel image".
A boot into the previous installed CM9.1 is still possible.
How can I upgrade to CM10 or CM10.1?
Thank you for any help!

What is your bootloader version? Si it fresh enough?
Bootloader...(!)
I was using ww_epad-9.4.3.30-20120604 - so I upgraded to stock ww_epad-user-10.4.2.20 (using CWM 5.5.0.4), after this I flas the recovery-jb.img (6.0.2.3) - now I can boot into CWM 6.0.2.3 recovery and install CM10. :laugh:
Thank you!

Yeap,.. Bloody bootloader
No problem
Sorry for reopening but - I's crazy!
Heres what I've tried (using Bootloader 1.00e (ww_epad-10.4.2.20-20121226 A03):
First flashing cm 6.0.2.3 and install cm10 and also tried the cm10.1 nightly. Installation works without errors, but on reboot the tf300 freeze on "the device is unlocked"
So I try it with twrp (2.4 jb). The installation of cm10 and also cm10.1 failed with the error "assert failed: getprop"
I also cannot mount /data, no matter what I try.
I've wiped data, cache and dalvik cache every time before I try to install one of the ROMs.
At this time I can do nothing with my TF300, only boot to cwm or twrp!
What the heck is wrong?

But U probably haven't format /system, right? It's another mandatory thing to do when switching roms.
If it fails, using fastboot try to flash system with original blob file (get it from archive of latest official release) - it will fix /data problem - been there, done that
U can also try to install official rom from zip... IF it fails, try fastboot method.
Let system boot, reboot into recovery again and do full wipe with /system format and install newest cm10.1

- now I formatted data and system and also wiped all possible parts
- flashing cwm 6.0.2.3 and installing asus stock ROM (ww_epad-user-10.4.2.20), reboot
- cannot access cwm recovery, so I reeflash it with fastboot method
- access cwm recovery and install latest 10.1 nightly, reboot, done.
Thank you so much!
I'm having the same issue.
I bought my TF300T when if first came out. I finally decided to play around with it.
I unlocked it with the Google Play app.
Used fastboot to push the latest ASUS JB4.2 firmware (US_V10.6.1.8)
My bootloader says: (1.00 e) released by "US_epad-10.6.1.8-20130225" A03
I rooted and installed TWRP v2.4.4.0
Everything is working fine for me and I have taken a solid backup, so I'm able to restore back to that when things fail.
I loved using CM7 on my phone, so I wanted to try CM10 on my tablet.
I have tried installing the stable CM 10.0, and I've tried all of the CM 10.1 Nightlies.
Every single time, the install goes perfectly fine, but when I reboot I just get the plain white Asus screen and then it freezes.
I have tried installing with and without installing the gapps.
Every time I install I do a Factory Reset, wipe the Cache, Dalvik Cache, and System. The only thing I didn't do is wipe Data as I'd prefer not to lose my files. (is that the problem, is the data-wipe required?)
Is there something obvious that I'm missing or a step I left out?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I tried doing it again with wiping all my data too...that didn't make a difference either. Still freezes on the white asus screen.
Hi, I just registered to reply, as seems noone did. And Ive been there myself, also with the 10.6.1.8 bootloader. Thats the issue. Cyanogenmod isnt compatible yet with the newest bootloader 10.6.1.8.
I hope it will in the future, Im awaiting it too. Until then I just rooted the stock rom, and using it that way. You could try the CROMI-X rom, but its also stock based, I havent tried it yet, maybe ill give the newest update a try (4.3) which will be available in a couple of days, as I really love their newest boot animation(wich I believe isnt included in the 4.2 version)
Till then, no Cyanogenmod for us with the newest bootloader.....also downgrading is not worth the risk if you ask me,,, even if its possible. So Ill wait for the Cyanogenmod team to update their version to ours.
Advice: dont mess with the bootloader nor the recovery img files. Always read carefully if you wanna change recovery if its compatible with your bootloader. If its not, and you flash it...tada....youre the owner of a cool and expensive brick. Dont wipe data in the bootloader, cuz as I understood reading posts here at xda, it will wipe your entire device, including bootloader...then your kinda screwed. So stick to what you have and let the devs do their work to update their roms for the 10.6.1.8 bootloader...MOST importantly, DONT store your device with the keyboard dock closed...(like a laptop)...your screen will crack eventually.I gathered this info on youtube as well as here, and Ive a friend, who was using the device with the dock till last month like that, had it from last august...result, screen cracked 3 weeks ago...its a design flaw in the transformers, the screen is under heavy pressure while in the keydock..I just got my dock last week,, Im storing it separately, and I never close it, only use it for typing, battery and usb.
im writing all this as I think I wont find this post again to reply if you read it.
I flashed clock work 5.8.3.4-tf101 using the directions found at cyanogen mod wiki and I used the cm-9.1.0-tf101 ROM. I have two problems now. One, my tf101 when I reboot it ti automatically reboots in recovery mode. Two, when I reboot and hold the volume down key and do a cold boot I can get it to boot but I have no WiFi and the tablet doesn't see a MAC address for my network card.

Is that the newest recovery? Cm9 is that 4.12? The recovery and versions of android made a difference. Also wifi would be kernel related. Is there a different kernel you can use?
Does cm9 specify a minimum recovery version?
Have you tried twrp recovery?
I am not sure, but I have not heard of many users with 5.8.3.1 CWM installed for the TF101. I see where it is on the CM Wiki, but that does not always mean it is actually a working recovery.
I was using CWM from version 3.X up through the early 5.X but I found TWRP and fell in love with it over the CWM versions.
Also, just curious why you are flashing CM9 when CM10 and CM10.1 is out and JB is much faster and smoother on the TF101 compared to ICS.
If you can flash from a microSD, I would put a different ROM that you may want to try (check the dev section for ROMs). Put the zip and any other required files (perhaps GAPPS) on the microSD and try installing them fron your current recovery to see if it boots.
If you have to put the files on the internal storage, use the adb commands to push your ROM to the internal memory like is shown on the CM wiki and try to install them.
If you want to change to TWRP, we can help you with that, but your recovery could be fine and it could just be an issue with flashing your ROM.
Also, did you factory reset from CWM before flashing? if not, that could be what is causing your tablet not to boot.
Won't bore you with all the details...
Was unhappy on TWRP 2.5 with Chromi 4.6.7
I knew that you had to install CWM to go to Cyanogenmod, but I couldn't get clockworkmod to let me change the recovery option even after I downloaded a compatible tf700 .img file.
So I got fearless (read stupid) and just used TWRP to install Cyanogenmod.
It worked, but not completely, I have no Play Store, many apps missing. Browser is working, wifi is up, but it never asks me for my google account, and I can't finish installing apps (in particular I wan't to install RomManager so I can try to get CWM installed).
Going back to Stock or Chromi doesn't seem to work. It says "Successful" but it won't boot, I get to an animation which just spins eternally.
Bob Graham
Well, it's probably the details that will matter... as in: which steps you exactly took to get into this mess...
ASFAIK TWRP is totally fine with CM roms, but did you do a clean install, a full wipe when going from CromiX to CM and then again back?
Also, it sounds as if you did not flash the GAPPS package after you flashed the CM rom.
I would suggest you flash back to CM, flash the GAPPS package and see if you can boot.
Good luck....

Having no Play Store does signal to me you might have forgotten to flash the GAPPS package.
