I'm trying to figure out why after downloading any file to my sd it goes into storage/sd0, and when I move the file it appears to move just fine to sd/downloads. However, when I go into TWRP recovery the files are not there. I have been troubleshooting this all morning and afternoon and it appears as though since flashing bb7 when it first dropped and then two days ago I flashed CROMI and now I'm apparently stuck here. Any help is appreciated.

It's because you updated to a 4.2.1 rom and then downgraded to 4.1.1 again.
Unfortunately 4.2.1 reorganised your internal sdcard without asking as well as setting some folder links and now they are incompatible with your recovery and android 4.1.1
Best fix is to copy everything some where safe, make sure you have a flashable rom or a Nandroid Backup on external sd, wipe internal from recovery, reflash cromi and then rebuild your file structure manually.
Sorry. The BB7 guys should warn you imo.

After updating my Transformer TFT101 from honeycomb to ICS via CWM, i updated using the Asus stock unrooted ROM then applied the OTA, that was 2days ago, I am not having issues with rebooting.
I discovered today that I am unable to copy files to the SDCARD, I can not copy files from my PC to DSCARD, from MicroSD to SDCARD, all end with a "copy failed" message, this is the case for a single or multiple files, i was able to copy one file from the SDCARD to the MicroSD, it appears that the SDCARD has some kind of write protection.
If you have experienced this and have solutions or fixes, please post them here.
Thank you/
Solved
I did a full Factory reset using the menu "Settings" and when rebooting from CWM, I did a full Wipe Data, and that took care of it.
Another problem fixed by factory reset...
Well you know it is the Asus fix all.

Are you asking how to get CM10 working correctly? Or just how to get your TF101 working fine again? If the former, I can't really help you there, and that's just going to be difficult because CM10 is still in development, so there could be a host of problems. If you just want to get it working again, I would suggest finding a different (preferably STABLE) ROM and flashing it onto your device. That should work.
Also, if you're flashing a completely different ROM onto your device (not an upgrade or root, or whatever else,) I would go by the general rule of ALWAYS wipe your system, dalvik cache, normal cache, and if you're flashing files from an SD card, be sure to wipe your internal memory too. This will ensure that none of your previous files conflict with the new ones.
This happened to me when i ran one of the JB roms and then tried to nandroid back to revolver. By default the mounting for /data/media/ which is the internal memory is supposed to be at /sdcard/, but for some reason it got switched to /storage/sdcard0/. Nandroiding back to Revolver didn't help as the change was to something before the rom, so even twrp was acting funny because the mountings were present there also.
After some confusion i flashed superwipe lite and all was well. I ran lite since its supposed to leave /data/media/ alone, while reparitioning the rest of the system, so i thought that at some point its got to change the mountings back to the way it was supposed to be in HC and ICS.
Now if i could only remember where those mountings were originally saved i can just go in there and edit the file directly if this happens again.

What recovery manager are you using? And are you loading your flash packages on a MicroSD or the internal memory?

Here's what I would suggest (assuming you have a microSD card):
Load your ROM of choice onto a microSD card and Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) to your internal memory. Reboot into recovery and flash the TWRP .zip to install it, and then reboot back into recovery. After that, go to "Wipe" and run Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset, and System, and DO NOT REBOOT Then go back and choose "Install" from the menu and make sure you're viewing "using external SD," and there should be your ROM .zip. Flash it and reboot.
Let me know what happens or if you have any questions.

Alright, well, I'm not sure why your touch would't be working if you're using a TF101, but here's my last idea: Go here and do this. Make sure to read it carefully, as that basically just wipes your drive COMPLETELY and reinstalls the STOCK firmware. If you can't figure out how to do that, then I have no idea how else I can help you. I'm sorry.

Can you not just download a file manager app from the Play Store? There's several out there...
Has anyone used this recovery? It is available at the CWM website http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager for the a700.
The reason i'm asking is i am wondering if it can recover from doing a downgrade of JB 4.2.
CWM 6.0.1.5 could not find the clockworkmod folder. I had to flash a rom (iconiaN) , then copy the CWM folder back to the / level, then reenter recovery to restore to my 4.1 setup.
I could not do the copy of the folder from in 4.2 nightly . it was way laggy and would fail copying this very large folder!

I'm using it for a week or so, i've not encountered any problems. But i also don't found any pros for using it. I did recover trough it and installed 4.1 factory OS after a fatal error (also 4.1).
My experience when folders are not found sd is not mounted, just mount the sd in CWM solves it.
Thanks for the reply. I don't think it has anything to do with mounting the sd card. It is because 4.2 creates the 0 folder for the multi users and moved the clockworkmod folder there. Therefore CWM could not locate the recovery folder. In CWM 6.0.1.5 the only option to search for the recovery folder is if it is on the external sd card. I am wondering if 6.0.2.3 has the ability to search the internal drive.
Like I mentioned before, I could not copy/move the folder because jb 4.2.1 nightly was really buggy. All file apps would crash part way through.

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.
So ever since I got my Asus back from RMA and I am waiting for them to fix my (unable to) unlock issues, I though I might try the official 4.2 but not without having root first.
So I downloaded the appropriate WW SKU .30 firmware .zip (MD5 matched), extracted it, renamed the extracted file and put it on my micro sd (like I should)
Unfortunately, every time I boot into stock recovery to perform the downgrade, it just shows me the annoying red triangle, which means that it was no success.
I really want my root access
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
With the .30 firmware I got from the asus downloads, I had to extract twice to get to the file and then rename.

Maybe that is what you have to do. The uploader may have downloaded it, and zipped it again, giving it two layers to be unzipped instead of one.

A locked tablet should just see the zip file as an OTA notification after booting back to the launcher.
Installing from recovery wouldn't be necessary in most situations.

Thanks for the advice.
The sad part is: I know their double zips, so I did everything right.
The tablet also recognises the update. And then, ... I click on it, it shows the working android icon for two or three seconds, before showing the belly up red triangle android.
This sucks...
Any further ideas?
Have to try to wipe data (factory reset) then do the update? (make sure you have a full backup with Titanium backup).

Check the filesystem of your SD card -- from my experience it needs to be FAT32. NTFS for sure doesn't work, exFAT may not work either (haven't tested).

Only FAT32 works for recovery. Both NTFS and exFAT formats will not work. For SDXC cards the default (Sandisk) format is exFAT so you have to format them FAT32 if you want to use them for recovery, but this will typically only show you 32GB max available for a 64GB and larger SD. So the largest SD you can practically use for recovery is 32GB FAT32.

What is the difference between a Titanium and a Nandroid backup? Do they both restore all apps, data, and /system files?

No, big differences, Nandroid backup (done through TWRP) will create a backup of your entire OS (everything, sys apps, users' apps, system settings, kernel, rom..etc.), but the downside is you have to restore the entire image (can't pick and choose). While Titanium only can backup your system apps and users apps with data. The advantage of Titanium is you can choose what app you want to restore with or without data when you restore an app. Usually anadroid backup is useful when you want to test out a new rom, you first make a nandroid backup and if for some reasons you don't like the new rom or your device crashed, you can just restore the nandroid backup and you're back to the same exact setup as before you upgrade/crashed.
Had to do a factory reset and use fat32 in order to downgrade... Gonna root as soon as downgrade complete
