Could someone please help me with this? I have posted a thread over on Android Forums with all the problems.
http://androidforums.com/asus-eee-p...restoring-device-big-problem-read-inside.html
Also, I have posted on here in the past about this, but I honestly am a giant noob at android and did not know what they were telling me to do.
Any help would be really great, thanks!
Since you can still boot your OS, you should be in good shape.
Try installing GooManager from the Play Store.
After installed, open it and grant root permissions.
Next, tap the menu key in the top right (3 stacked boxes) and then choose the Install OpenRecovery Script. This will install TWRP recovery which is far superior to any CWM I have ever run.
See if that installs properly (if yes, you will end up in TWRP recovery during a reboot)
TWRP allows you to see the internal and external memory to flash new ROMs.

I will try this out when I get home. Thank you. I will report back with what happens.
Edit: Also congratulations on 100 thanks.
format your micro SD and only put the ROM you want in it. Now install twrp as other guy said and reboot into twrp recovery in go to wipe and wipe (dalvik, cache, internal memory, system and everything else expect micro SD). Then do a clean installation of ROM and you should be good to go.. if that doesn't work then try easy flash

This did not work, I still boot into cwm when the device restarts after downloading it.
Here is another thing to try:
If you can boot and want to try TWRP, here is another way to install it so long as you are rooted:
Download the 2.3.2.3 blob from HERE
Place the recovery blob in the /sdcard/ directory. We are going to pretend the downloaded file is called TWRP.blob
Open a terminal window and enter these commands
Code:
su
cd /sdcard/
ls
dd if=TWRP.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
reboot recovery
the ls will tell you if the blob is indead where it is supposed to be, if it can be seen, you should be good to go on to the dd command, if you don't see the file, do not procede.
Make sure to change TWRP.blob to the actual name and location of the file you downloaded
Let me know how it goes

I cannot connect the device to my computer at all. I have usb debugging enabled and everything. It freezes for a couple of seconds when I plug the device in, and then says that installing the drivers has failed in windows. I am trying to run adb and it says no devices are connected.

You don't need to do this on your PC, so long as you can boot you can do it on your tablet.

Ah, sorry, long time since I've done this. Alright, well I've gotten into terminal emulator and I've typed that exactly, switching over my directory to my microsd though and changing the file name to the exact one. I'm getting a "cannot open for read: No such file or directory" error when I do this. I have also tried moving the file to /sdcard/ and I have named the file twrp.blob, and neither of these have helped.
Did you issue the su command and get a popup for root access?

Yes, that was the first thing I did. I did exactly as you said. I've tried changing file names, changing directories and everything but for some odd reason I'm getting the same error.
Edit: and yes, I'm changing those when I enter them in terminal as well.
Strange.
I'll have to troubleshoot this in a bit. I'll let you know what I find.

Try a normal reboot at the end instead of reboot recovery and see if that works.
If not, run through this and download one of the flashable .zip files (it is version 2.2.X.X) and see if that works. If so, then run through GooManager to get the 2.3.2.3.

For those who may be flashing ROMs, cannot mount the SD Card any more, and may have accidentally corrupted their SD Card, here are some helpful steps.
Preliminary Review - Check to see if you can mount in recovery or bootloader
First, go back to your bootloader screen and click on fastboot (reset your phone and hold the power and vol down button). Once in bootloader check your computer drives to see if the sd card is recognized
Your computer may be able to recognize the drive even if it cant open it. If thats the case, you may be able to format it from your computer (use FAT32 formatting).
Second, If you cannot see your SD Card in your ROM or from the PC, and you are using Clockwork Recovery (CW), try flashing TWRP recovery first. Do this by going through the following steps:
Step #1
Download TWRP recovery from http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/100 Make sure to download the correct version for your device
Step #2
Place the recovery file into a folder with fastboot.exe
Step #3
Reboot your phone and hold down the Vol Down Button and Power Button until your bootloader screen appears, then enter fastboot. Then connect to your computer. I find this method works best by holding down the buttons right away. If your phone is off, press the power button then immediately press and hold the power and vol off buttons again until bootloader screen shows up. Dont let go until the screen shows.
Step #4
Type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
but replace the twrp.img wording with the exact name of your downloaded TWRP recovery
Step #5
Enter TWRP recovery by selecting it from your bootloader screen. Then ensure the device is connected to your computer and select the Mount option and then mount your sd card.
IF you still cant see your SD Card from TWRP recovery or you get an error, proceed to the next steps. Your computer may be able to recognize the drive, even if it cant open it (if your lucky).
If your computer recognizes the drive but cant open it, you can try formatting it from your computer (make sure to format as FAT32)
If you really cant see your SD Card, and your fairly sure its corrupted, and you have no way formatting it from your computer, continue on below:
Basic Solution
Reflashing Stock Recovery to your device using fasboot, then doing a full factory reset. This would be using the method in post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
PLEASE NOTE THIS METHOD WILL WIPE THE DATA FROM YOUR DEVICE AS WELL AS FROM YOUR SD CARD
This method works because custom recoveries cannot re format SD Cards on the HTC One S, only wipe data from them. However, the stock recovery does have a proprietary feature that will reformat the internal sd card if it has been corrupted.
Inotherwords:
Step #1
Download the stock recovery from: http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=ville_recovery_signed.img
*******Note that this file is a stock recovery for S4 devices, not S3.
Place the file into the same folder as your fastboot.exe
Step #2
On your device, go into bootloader and fastboot mode, connect your computer to the device, and type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery ville_recovery_signed.img
Step #3
Reboot into the bootloader and then choose to "clear storage" from the main screen and afterwards reset to factory defaults.
Step #4
Go back into the bootloader once step #3 is done and enter fastboot, connect your device and reflash your original custom recovery again. Your SD Card should be visible
Advanced Solution - If you do not want to wipe the data from your device
This method does not require reflashing the original recovery and factory reseting the whole phone. However, it still means that the info on your sd card will be lost. It also needs a rooted device.
This method does not require you to access your bootloader or use fastboot. You can do this while having your phone in custom recovery.
DO NOT ATTEMPT UNLESS YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS. THERE ARE ALWAYS RISKS WITH FORMATTING. DO NOT HOLD ME RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES. YOUR DEVICE IS LIKELY OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY ALREADY SINCE YOU WOULD HAVE UNLOCKED THE BOOTLOADER.
I have taken this solution from HTC One X forums namely from post 17 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647806&page=2
However, I have also confirmed (SneakyGhost's partition list for HTC One S) that the correct mmcblk0p for the HTC One S sd card is mmcblk0p36.
Step #1: Download the version of busybox listed below, unzip it and also put this in the folder with ADB before you get started. You only need to do this if you dont already have busybox installed on your HTC One S. Sometimes this busybox file can be found under /system/bin or /system/xbin if youve previously installed it. If so, replace the paths in the instructions below for that of your busybox. If you have busy box already installed in /system/bin , then you do not need to type in the paths since the adb shell automatically picks up programs in that folder
Step #2: Go to your command prompt in the folder with adb.exe . Connect your HTC One S to your computer and type
Code:
adb devices
and ensure your computer sees your HTC One S. This command should work even if you are in a custom recovery like TWRP or CW (but for gods sake, if your on CW, the first thing you should do is flash TWRP, but thats just an editorial opinion, lol).
Step #3: Type
Code:
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
This pushes busybox to a temp folder on your HTC One S. Make sure you are pushing the busybox file and not the zip file. If you already have busy box installed you do not need to do this step. (you can delete it from this folder later if you like)
Step #4: Type
Code:
adb shell
to get into your linux shell. Then type
Code:
su
to get root access. Your command prompt should now be a # and not $.
Step #5: Type
Code:
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
to fix permissions for busybox. You may not need to do this if you already have busy box installed with the correct permissions. If these instructions dont work with your version of busy box, try setting the permissions with this code but replace the path with the location of your busybox.
Step #6: Type
Code:
cat /proc/partitions
and just ensure you see mmcblk0p36. This is the sdcard partition for HTC One S
Step #7:Type
Code:
/data/local/tmp/busybox mkfs.vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p36
Make sure you type this correctly. You dont want to format the wrong partition accidentally.
That should work. Pls let me know if it doesnt. If it doesnt work with your version of busybox just try using the one in the zip file below. Also remember, dont just push the zip file. Extract the busybox file from the zip and push that to your device instead.
Also, it may help to use adb through a custom recovery instead of being in your ROM (ie if it doesnt work when your phone is booted normally, try doing the steps with recovery loaded).
There are other methods to try too They would be:
Other Solutions
Other Method #1: Relocking your bootloader and using a compatible RUU with your phone. This will fully wipe your device
Other Method #2: If your computer sees your sdcard even if it cant open it when your device is connected, you can try formatting it that way (ie the way you would format any other drive on your computer)
Only use the busybox method if you are comfortable with it and if other methods have failed. You can learn more about the formatting command (ie mkfs.vfat) by googling it.
So if I got this right if I have busybox already I only have to do is step 7.
Almost, but yes, that is the key step. Although you would still want to open a terminal Window, either an adb shell or from the phone, and type su to get root, and double check to ensure the shell sees the partition. Also, I did hear in the one X forums that not every version of busy box worked. I would imagine an updated version would likely work though.

Step 4, a quicker way: adb shell su , get you into shell as root right away

Nice update. Ya I wish they hurry up with sorting it, the other one is a load of crap and this really should replace it.
Updated with a link to another good tutorial about pushing ROMs to the phone
Its like they don't care about stickys any more, come mods its about time this replaced the crappy one.

Does your bootloaderscreen say "fastboot usb" anywhere? There is an option that you have to select in your bootloader called fastboot... If it says fastboot usb then you are connected, and you shouldnt get a waiting for device error.

yea I got into the bootloader and then fast boot. ive managed to sort it now, for some reason my pc was the problem, I had to reboot my computer after a command window prompt otherwise I just got the waiting for device screen.
typical really, my laptop and phone both conspiring against me.
eventually managed to flash another recovery which did see my sdcard so all is good now.
thanks for your reply though!

Nope but a RUU will have it.
I got the device which is really nice, I rooted the first night, I then updated to version 1.1, lost root as usual but luckily my copy of CWM works fine for both versions 1.0 and 1.1.
If you are familiar doing this with android phones, just follow the same steps.
Use at own Risk
Download both files. Make sure they are complete and the file sizes match.
Save recovery.img to computer, and su.zip to VSD220,
Gain access to adb for your device,
go to terminal or command prompt and type "adb reboot bootloader",
and then enter.
The screen will turn solid black,
in the same terminal type "Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img",
and enter, make sure you are in the same directory as your recovery.img.
The recovery will flash quickly, when complete type "fastboot reboot", enter.
Your device will boot up,
make sure you have Su.zip saved on the VSD220 in the directory /mnt/external_sd/su.zip,
you must have an external sd card inserted,
you can confirm this with root explorer even without root.
In terminal type adb reboot recovery,
you should have a working CWM that will allow you to flash su.zip, and perform a nandroid backup, etc.
If CWM offers to block the stock recovery, accept it.
Otherwise you will need to delete or rename /install-recovery.sh and/or /system/recovery-from-boot.p.
Enjoy Root.
This works for both version 1.0 and 1.1.
Cool, thanks!
Can't seem to get "adb devices" to come up with anything. Using Android Composite ADB Interface for driver, no luck at all.
Any help on which ADB driver to use and where to download appreciated.

Ok, I worked it out now. But for others, the problem was that recovery image was being replaced with the original on the command "fasboot reboot".
So instead, immediately after typing "Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" I typed the following command "fastboot boot recovery.img".....AND only then did I get CWM which allowed me to flash su.zip from SD card.
Thanks for all help. Now that I have root, what changes/tweaks did you make using root?
Is there an optimum dpi to apply and are you overclocking?
Thanks.

has anyone gotten this to work lately? The device I'm playing with has 1.3 firmware on it. For some reason, I haven't gotten adb to work on this device in windows, and in ubuntu, I can adb reboot bootloader, and it goes to the black screen, but any fastboot commands, just sits there waiting for device.

I didn't know 1.3 was available. Is this a recent firmware? I checked a couple weeks ago.
Not sure, it's not my monitor, just looking at it for a friend. when I go to about, system update I see vsd220 system update 1.3 device system version : IMM76D.UI23ED02_VSC and same info under server version
Got it sorted out after hunting on google. it does work
problem with adb
Ok so i got the device being recognized on my XP machine. Really did not have to do much. Just pluged it in and everything worked.
On my Windows 7 machine when i plug in the device i only see the MTP installed and then see VSD220 in MY COMPUTER and can browse the files. I do not see it when i "adb devices".
1) USB debugging is on/enabled
2) Both laptops have Eclipse with latest ADB and ADT tools installed
Any suggestions as to what i can do? Anyone can copy over drivers that are working with your win7 machine?

I was wondering what ROM Version is your DA220HQL on (ES I think?) and will the instructions work in Linux or other *nix like systems?
The main problem I have is that I do not have any drivers so adb in Windows XP will recognize it. It is recognized under Ubuntu 12.04 for me.
Thanks for the info! I am very excited to get this working better than out of the box!

There are a universal ADB Drivers for Windows.
Universal Naked Driver for example.

Or the following link which I have no clue about who maintains this site and how secure it is running that Exe. So please check first for yourself before yelling at me. http://adbdriver.com/
Regarding the ROM Version I was on, check the other Thread where I listed them all.

Well I got the ADB driver installed and I can use it! However I tried the root procedure and it failed to root.
When I was in the CW, the one thing it kept giving an error such as cannot mount sdcard. I checked the sdcard and su.zip IS on it, but the recovery could not locate it. I did try using the sideload method and it seemed to work, but when I rebooted and checked for root, it was not successful.
I tried this in both Ubuntu and Windows with the same result. I even performed a factory reset and tried again. And the same thing: no root.
Is there a timing issue with when to enter the commands?
The info on my DA220HQL from about is as follows:

So you were able to load CW but when you select "Choose from SDCard" it could not find su.zip? Or did you try to Mount your SDCard? Regarding the ADB Commands you can take as much time as you want. Have you used CW before?

I did try to mount the sdcard, but I got an error that said it could not mount the sdcard. That is when I tried the sideload method. When I boot up normally, the sdcard is there along with su.zip. I posted the info on my DA220HQL noting the kernel version. I went back to the post where you stated your kernel version. They are different. Mine is later than yours.
After going through everything several times, I though maybe I was doing something wrong. We went out of town so this is the first time I could sit down and check out the posts.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Thanks for all the help. I could not get this to root so we are sending it back to HSN. As a last ditch effort, I did a factory reset and tried again. And I got the same result. I do not think that the recovery while booted was able to "see" the device's partition at all, which is why I got the mount errors. In any case, I also have found that we can find it online for much less than what HSN charged us for it. I am still curious if anyone else was able to root this little gem.
Keep posting updates!
im getting the same issue
cwm is not mounting my sdcard
android is recognizing it, but not in recovery
I'm thinking I shouldn't have installed that update
there are a bunch of errors in recovery when starting
E:Can't open /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/misc (No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

my best guess is we need a different recovery img, even though acer is the same as viewsonic
also there is no prompt to disable stock recovery being reinstalled
recovery touch is also kind of wack, have to tap below whatever I want to pick (which is also not consistent horizontally)
edit: going back to recovery, under mounts and storage, it doesn't appear to have permission to mount anything
looks like viewsonic released a rooted ROM on their support site
http://www.viewsoniceurope.com/uk/support/downloads/drivers/?prod_name=vsd220
But yeah...Acer hasnt
Perhaps this should get the ball rolling? It's funny how the US site doesn't have that
edit: wow looks like they even provided flashing tools and instructions...I just hope that this doesn't brick my unit (since its Acer not Viewsonic)...anyone else willing to give it a try?
i have a slight problem. i grabbed the ubuntu touch alpha and went in to recovery, loaded it (according to thread instructions) but ended up with a bootloop.
in the end i thought "lets just put another rom back on for now" and then realised i had deleted the other rom from the sdcard! so i'm stuck with it not booting in to ubuntu, and not able to get another rom on as it doesn't boot in.
can i connect to the internal sdcard area myself by plugging the usb in to the pc or something?
i have twrp loaded as recovery
thanks

The issue, Superwipe wipes the internal /sdcard/ and also this is where it flashes from.
You need to boot to recovery and then use ADB to push files to the sdcard.
If you have never used ADB, it can be a bit daunting.
First, you need adb from the Android SDK. It is a big file for the few you need. I have a copy of the relevant ADB files here: https://db.tt/b9dQ6xzp
Unzip this to c:\adb folder on windows. If you are using Linux, it should already have adb in the /usr/bin/ folder.
Next, you need the Universal Naked Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1934814&d=1367674531
Unzip these to c:\universal_naked_drivers
Boot to CWM and then plug in your USB cable. It should show a new device found. It may find 2, an MTP and then there should be another either Unknown device or an Android ADB device. Right click and update the driver. Be sure to search for driver, then tell it you want to pick from a list. Hit the Have Disk button and then hit the browse button and browse to c:\universal_naked_drivers and hit OK. It should show you a driver to select and hit OK. If you are using Win 8, there is an additional step that is required to used non-signed drivers.
Once the driver is updated, download the zip file you want to flash on your PC. I assume it is a ROM.zip file for this example. Place this file in the c:\adb folder and call it ROM.zip (can be named something else, but this is what we will use for this example).
Now, open a command prompt and execute the following:
Code:
> [B]c:[/B]
c:\> [B]cd c:\adb[/B]
c:\adb> [B]adb devices[/B]
It will probably say some messages about the daemon is not running, restarting adb.
Then it should show a list. There should be some numbers followed by "recovery"
If no devices are shown, check that your ADB device is showing in the Device Manager.
Once you see it in the adb devices list, continue:
Code:
c:\adb> [B]adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/[/B]
successfully pushed xxx bytes
c:\adb>
At this point you should now see the ROM.zip file on the internal storage in CWM to allow you to install it.
Choose to install the file then reboot (not to recovery). You have to let it flash the file (progress bar will show). Once the screen goes black and the progress bar disappears, it should now boot to your ROM..
If your ROM requires a custom kernel and/or GAPPS to be flashed, use the same procedure to push your kernel.zip and GAPPS.zip to the /sdcard/ directory.

Does it connect to fastboot using the universal naked drivers? If so, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425581
Nope..... It's was stuck on the Asus loading page all day..... Wouldn't shut down or anything........ It is currently dead battery...... I have connected the charger...... But got no charging light on the power button!
i think im having a similar issue. Charged up my tablet since i havent used it in a while. Went to go into recovery and it wont boot. Stuck on ASUS screen. Im on the old boot loader.for 4.1 and i dont know how to upgrade. I can boot back into the rom and use the tablet etc but no recovery.
Help
I am in the strangest situation.
Apparently while trying to upgrade CM 4.3 I flashed the wrong TWRP and checked closely because I love CWM-R
I have lost fastboot capabilities but with using the "adb reboot bootloader" I can get into android 4.3 (no GAPPS).
With any reboot it takes me to the ASUS screen and then directly to TWRP version 2.6.3.0
However nothing seems to work in there. I have used adb to push file to the tablet and when I hit install from the zip nothing happens even though I saw the file, then it disappears. All except system will not let me format etc. ADB does work and at time the TWRP will let me use ADB Sideload.
The problem is getting to install a new TWRP that works and sees a micro SD card. Also I have installed zip files hundreds of times but everything I see for this all I find are blob and img files to down load and have no idea how to make them install when all explain use of the fastboot. I do not believe I am bricked but it ain't good!
Any help greatly appreciated. The problem is getting to install a new TWRP that works and sees a micro SD card.

Asus repair is probably your only option. If it cant charge or boot up, theres nothing I can do.

Did you try reflashing the recovery with the correct TWRP verison from fastboot or the tablet in Android?

Yes I did see that. It was what got me to the adb possibility. However I am not able to fast boot due to the fact that it goes straight to the TWRP on any start. And the TWRP is dysfunctional. My only choice I can see is going to be terminal emulator and I am not sure of its capabilities.

Try to send "adb reboot-bootloader" command from Your PC. Or You can try "reboot bootloader" command in TWRP terminal.

That does work, but the problem is it does not stay. You need to do each time you want to use the table (shut down / reboot etc.). But it does allow me to boot into Android 4.3 but it is only a partial load since GAPPS was never loaded. I can push via ADB but nothing seems to stick! I believe all except /system has a no write or no permission granted. In the Android part (4.3) with Root Explorer I have granted the permissions? It appears that TWRP is both the bootloader (fastboot) and recovery. So any fastboot commands are futile, (waiting for device. I did see somewhere there is an administrative function for fastboot but have not been able to locate in all my readings. Except one persons mention of it to eliminate the waiting for device.

Partial Brick
If this helps anyone I found in a post:
I used it in Terminal Emulator while in Android 4.3 from (adb reload bootloader)
• # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 bs=100 count=1
• # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=16 count=1
• # reboot
This now stops when I reboot or turn off the tablet from going directly to TWRP which basically allows me to do nothing, except pretend to do ADB then on a reboot nothing happened.

Terminal Emulator in Android 4.3
Can anyone tell me where to read on how to use this?
ADB commands seem much different and really need to know how to push from microSD etc and do not setup.
Files I wanted to push I placed in the same folder as the program on the base of C:\ but do not understand how to map here.
I will read and nice to have examples.

To push file to tablet microSD through adb:
tablet booted into android
adb push C:\\some_file /Removable/MicroSD/
tablet booted into TWRP(don't remember path for sure)
adb push C:\\some_file /ext_sdcard/
To get file from tablet internal memory:
adb pull /sdcard/some_file C:\\some_path\
or
adb pull /sdcard/some_file -should put file in directory where cmd now.

All seem to be different say directory does not exists etc Crazy program.
Is it possible that from a corrupt there could be 2 layers here? Because in the recovery mode it tells me that there is not OS installed?
Yet I know I can boot to CM Android 4.3.
Wish I could think of a way to clear and start fresh, but without fastboot I am up the creek.

Hello people,
First of all, I'm not an expert so pardon on that.
I had a MicroSD card in my tablet and it was partitioned using GParted, 2 partitons - fat32 and ext4. I erased the whole tablet with Wipe option in TWRP and installed move2sd.zip.
Anyway... When I pressed Reboot to recovery, tablet restared, showed TWRP and screen went on and off showing TWRP logo, like it was trying to load TWRP. Now... Since I installed that .zip file it might have written some code to use MicroSD card as boot? I reinstalled TWRP by flashing it via fastboot and was able to enter TWRP again.
Now the stupid part... Since it read 0mb on internal card (tablet), I wanted to fix it by formating Data... It didnt do the trick cause /data and other folders couldn't have been found. That's where I restarted the tablet and pressed Wipe data on the screen with 3 icons (RCK, Android, Wipe data)... Since then I only see 2 screens - bootup screen with Asus logo and message: Device is unlock and the next screen is TWRP and it flickers again, goes on and off just as if it was trying to load TWRP.
I cannot reflash recovery cause there is no fastboot?
I just hope this is not an expensive paper...

You can still enter RCK ??
Not that this helps your situation, so apologies.
Just started getting the screen flicker/lines randomly when handeling it. So my guess was just the loosining of something internally.
I`m also freecarding it. So that hadden`t crossed my mind.
Time for a tear down vid I guess.
Best of luck tho.
I'll make a quick video. Be right back to you...
Edit: I cannot post a video due to XDA rules, but you can search for it: TF700 no fastboot, recovery stuck (search for recent uploads, d jakolis is my username on YouTube) If you guys cannot find it, I can email the link to you.
As you can see in the video, there is not much left to do with the tablet.
However, when I selected Wipe Data on bootloader, did it wipe kernel too? I'm asking this cause I had installed data2sd.zip along with its corresponding kernel.
What would happen if someone else with the same device installed the custom ROM on MicroSD card and handed me his MicroSD card to pop in my tablet? Would it boot off it? Would I be able to enter Android and maybe somehow re-flash recovery and stock kernel along with stock ROM?
You should still be able to connect via adb. Try adb pull /tmp/recovery.log and adb logcat.

Looks like your /data partition is not formatted properly. Try this (don't type "#" and the following comment):
Code:
adb shell # connect to a shell on the device
killall -19 recovery # suspend the recovery so that it doesn't interfere with formatting
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 # format /data
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=64 count=1 # remove "wipe data" request
reboot
Wow... I don't know what to say. I'm looking at the fastboot screen! :highfive:
I didn't type the last line of your code because it rebooted itself after format data was complete - make_ext4fs... Is there any consequence for not typing the last line?
Alright, I'm in recovery right now. Question: What is installed on the tablet right now? If anything... May I proceed with installing stock ROM and maybe do nvflash process to have an unbrickable device?
P.S. What does it take to learn all these things? I'm curious cause I like coding, so if you feel happy to share it, I'm all ears.

Maybe the "killall -19" stuff didn't work and the recovery was not suspended, so it may have somehow determined that the wipe was finished and initiated a reboot.

What is installed? Whatever recovery, kernel and ROM you installed last. No other apps since you just formatted /data.
Since the nvflash (flatline) process saves only BCT, bootloader, partition table and unlock token (basically all the stuff you need to get fastboot working on a hard bricked tablet), you can do that now.

If you can still enter recovery (which one do you have?) you can use the build in Terminal.
Otherwise you have to get the adb drivers installed and working. There is no other way if you do not have a working recover and cannot get into fastboot.

Splendid!
Now - did you a full wipe in TWRP before installing the rom? Select the Wipe option and swipe the button. Then re-install the rom.
On the last page of the Aroma installer you have the option of saving the installation log. Do it.
Then back to TWRP, go to Advanced and also save the recovery log.
If the ROM still doesn't boot, post both of those logs.
Also try to capture a logcat of the boot process
Code:
adb logcat -v long > logcat.txt
Post that one too.
