recovery and fastboot partition has been formatted ,Now no way to use

I have bad news for you: in order to be able to use APX you need to have the sbk ( secure boot key). And this can only be given by acer. I have asked acer several times to give it- without success. So, sorry but the only possible way known currently is to send it in to acer.

FYI, they replaced mine with /data broken with the warranty (nothing to pay..)

Was it the recovery by NoThrills?
Or was it one of the early versions?
It should be pretty easy to remember "When" you installed the recovery.

[Q] ROM manager clockworkmod update bricked tf700

Hello there!
I have a TF700T pad, I installed free rom manager application, from within that application I chose to install clockworkmod recovery, the application loaded the clockworkmod recovery from the internet (there was an indicator on top of the application screen).
After finished, I rebooted into recovery, but it doesn't reboot to recovery, it loads android normally, then I tried to boot to recovery manually by pressing and holding the the power button along with the volume down button it loads nothing and stays there for ever!! I did this several times then it it changed and now it doesn't even load the android normally.
And when I boot into APX mode, the adb can't find it!
In short, I can't access recovery nor system!
When I try to boot to recovery
(power + volume down) It freezs and the following shows on the screen:
"The device is unlocked.
Android cardhu-user bootloader <2.10 e> release by "CN_epad-9.4.5.30-20120907" A03
Checking for android ota recovery
Booting recovery kernel image"
- I downloaded the firmware from ASUS and renamed it to "EP201_768_SDUPDATE" and copied to the root of a formated FAT32 micro SD card and tried to boot, but still freezing on above mentioned screen.
- The PC recognizes it (drivers are correct, i downloaded them and installed them) but the adb can not find the pad and tells me to install tap's specific drivers!
- I tried to flash the recovery image image.img through adb, but same problem, it stays there for ever showing the message "waiting for device".
Please, help me with a solution for that situation!
Thank you.

Do you have nvflash backup? if not, I believe you're done. You need to send out for repair.
Thank you for your quick response!
Isn't there any other way I could repair it without sending to ASUS repair?? i originally bought it from CHINA and now i am here in EGYPT!!!

I'm assuming you've unlocked the bootloader. Can you get the device into fastboot and push a new recovery through that?

That would be the only remaining option, but ROM Manager is known to do this. If a user cannot even read on a forum before doing stuff, I'm not sure this is going to work out very well.
OK. I'll go back to my hermit cave now.
No, I can only boot in APX mode!
Isn't there any way we can make the adb reconize and access the PAD?
I can bring the recovery image and put in the root of the SD card, but what should I name it so the boot can reconize it and update? (the device says "checking for android ota recovery" !!

APX is NOT adb -- you need to issue commands using fastboot. Did you use the manufacturer's switch? "adb devices" won't return anything, even on a perfectly healthy 700. Take a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926286
and don't forget to use that switch: -i 0x0B05, as in
fastboot -i 0x0B05 <command>
For example, fastboot -i 0x0B05 devices or fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
EDIT: APX = FASTBOOT, for clarity.

I only asked because I thought ROM manager was known to brick this tablet if you tried to install a recovery with it. I may be mistaken though.

APX is also NOT fastboot - in APX mode you can *only* use nvflash, but for that you'd need to have created the blob before bricking.
I am sorry, I didn't really understand what you are trying to say!!
What does "manfacturer's switch" mean?
Also, what does APX = FASTBOOT ?

You're right. I wasn't mad/annoyed at your post. I just wanted to point out it has been known for a while now that ROM Manager does funky things on the 700. I'd just stay away from it -- iIn the sense that if one aspect of a program is broken by a device's particulars, changes are relatively high that some other aspect(s) is/are broken as well and you might get to know which one(s) that is/are by first-hand experience.

Who can help me to boot and restore the system ?
In advance, thank you very much.

APX mode does not help you unless you generated your nvflash blobs prior to this mess and you would not be posting if you did.

If my memory is good, i have :
bootloader version is WW_epad-user-10.6.1.14.8
Kernel is kernel-that11
recovery is recovery-kk-6047
rom is cm-11.0-20140921-tf700t-crombi-kk-R1_signed
The TF700 has very instable. It is reboot alone and once by day.
I think i'm in this situation beacause i do a Wipe/data in the fastboot mode. After that, impossible to enter in fastboot mode. The tf700 shows the asus's logo. I can enter in APX mode but i don't know it. I haven't any nvflash blobs.
I hope i'm more clear. Many thanks.

Your bootloader is ok.
I guess your recovery is CWM 6.0.4.7? Never heard of a kk recovery...
You are in trouble and the reason is the Wipe Data from the bootloader (and most likely what you did afterwards since this usually causes a forced reboot to recovery which can be solved, but I suspect you did something else..).
If even your recovery doesn't boot anymore this is over my head, but @lj50036 may be able to help you.
Check out this post and follow the thread and problem, but do not flash anything before checking with @lj50036

[Q] Which partition to format to remove CWM ?

Hey,
I have been given Motorola Xoom and when I'm booting into recover it has got broken or wrong CWM. Tablet goes in the loop and I see that CWM Droid with exclamation and parts and pieces coming out of his stomach
I know that partition with CWM can be formatted from ADB, but i haven't done it for long time and never on tablet.
Could someone tell me / confirm which partition installed CWM sits on ?
Also, what's the chance that something will go wrong and I won't be able to flash new CWM ?

If you can boot into Android (and you have root access), you can use Flashify.
Otherwise you can use "fastboot flash recovery you_recovery.img".

fastboot will overwrite you broken CWM
1) reboot in bootloader (command : adb reboot bootloader)
2) fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

I don't think I can flash recover over existing recovery. This will most likely lead to soft brick...
Before flashing twrp.img I need to format the partition where CWM sits currently.
- Do you know which partition is it and how to do it ?

Without root you won't be able to issue a mkfs command (as far as I know).
You can use :
fastboot format recovery
and/or
fastboot erase recovery

Sounds good. So, just to confirm
- I need to first clear the recovery partition with commands you wrote above
- Flash new recovery from the link you submitted in the post above
- Flash selected ROM from the SD card using new recovery
Does it all sound fine ?

Correct.
Choose carrefully you recovery image (BigPart or non-BigPart) depending on the ROM you wish to install.

change your recovery to 4ext
http://d-h.st/rG7
extract the recovery.img and flash it via fastboot command
the command is fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then from 4ext format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash from 4ext(if you are on S-ON)
flash the rom
done
note: enable smartflash exactly before flashing the rom
i'll give it a try at home. Thank you!
I'll let you know.
Thank you so much! It worked really good
So happy

boot your device to the bootloader,select fastboot and connect it to the pc
extract the recovery.img from the link above and place it in the folder where you have adb/fastboot files in your pc
open a command window from that folder and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
then you will have 4ext recovery installed

I've used OneX AIO tool to flash it, and now I have 4ext Recovery Touch and my Sensation is alive again! Thank you!
Hi guys I tried to flash ''cm-13.0-20151108-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid'' via ''TWRP-2.8.7.0-pyramid-r9-cm13'' but that failed, ever since I am stuck at the HTC logo, I tried to flash numerous older firmwares but try to factory reset/wipe I get an ''unable to format storage'' so any Rom I try fails. It was previously running older version of CM fully rooted which I have fully backed up via CWM but now cant restore is due to TWRP & CWM being incompatible.
I have tried so many ADB commands but ADB only responds when in TWRP any time else like in Fastboot I get absolutely no response at all, I have also tried to flash CWM back any way possible but have failed same with ''4EXT-Recovery-Touch-v1.0.0.5-RC5-PG58IMG''. Also tried RUU but kept on receiving 'Connection Error' even though the USB cable was connected & works fine, also tried using ''Sensation_All-In-One_Kit_v3.1'' no luck either with any of its commands.
I have attached the Bootloader screen if it can help with this boot loop.
I have never has such issues with Samsung Phones so I am a total noob with HTC phones so any help would be really great.
Any help would be really great from this amazing community!
TWRP has broken my partition table. I cannot format via parted due to the fact it now has 'overlapping partitions'. No recovery can fix this including 4ext. Completely stuck at the minute. I don't want to use a microsd card as storage when I have internal storage available. Is there anyone that can help or has had any success? I am S-OFF and bootloader UNLOCKED.
Tried stock RUU via P58..zip and get's stuck part way through (I think at system or SD)
Help! I'm sure there's someone that can fix the partition table. The format of the internal storage sd is fat32 - which I believe is where the problem started from. I don't want to let this problem defeat me although I have spent an age trying to sort it...too late to give up
Any help is highly appreciated.

What I've done has been, through a PC with Windows Vista (I have been unable to get anything with Windows 8 onwards ), I installed the HTC One X All In One tool, and in the part where the recoverys are located, there are three (CWM, TWRP and other), I went to the Data / Recoveries folder and I deleted the TWRP, replacing this with an image of 4EXT Recovey Touch, and putting the same name that has the recovery erased. Then I went to the tool, I installed TWRP (which was 4EXT which replaced it) and my Sensation revived. Good luck!
For me it is not loading to 4ext, after flashing it..... stuck at htc logo. if i install twrp or cwm it boots to it... any idea how to fix it?
