Yes,follow the guide from that link and you will be fine.Or you could flash the Original Asus Rom from TWRP ,then flash CromiX . ( keep in mind that after flashing a full Asus rom you will also loose the custom recovery).

Is your tablet bootloader unlocked? If it's still locked, we can't flash custom recovery, and therefore, can't flash custom ROMs (3IN1 OC kernel on cromi-xenogenesis 4.4 rom), either.
Also, you need to at least tell us if your tablet is running on official ASUS stock rom, CyanogenMod, AOSP, or custom rom.. And, we also need to know the bootloader version of your tablet. Because, installing an incorrect/incompatible custom recovery variant can brick your tablet.
For now, I can tell you that for 3IN1 OC kernel on cromi-xenogenesis 4.4 rom, you need to be at least on ASUS firmware version 10.6.1.8 or 10.6.1.15.3 and have an unlocked bootloader. The TWRP version you need entirely depends on which ASUS firmware version you have now.

[Q] Cannot flash custom rom

I have a asus tf300t running 4.2.1 with unlocked bootloader and root. I am running twrp v2.5.0.0 and I have already made backups of my apps. I am trying to install a custom rom. Preferably PACman rom but at this point any will do. When I try to flash the rom it go through the whole process then reboots but does not get past the asus splash screen.
What is the problem? Is it that the new bootloader does not accept any custom roms, if so how do I downgrade to 4.1? Otherwise I am open to any advice.

You must be on Jelly Bean 4.2.1
with the Asus Stock bootloader 10.6.1.8 and TWRP Recovery patched 2.4.4.0
or
Bootloader 10.1.15.3 and TWRP patched 2.5.0.0
You will find all versions of Stock firmwares and Stock kernels here
And the TWRP recoveries here

I am currently running the 10.1.15.3 bootloader and TWRP 2.5.0.0, yet it still does not finish flashing the ROM. I even tried to flash a more simple stock based ROM, ie. black beans 8. This did not work either. It went through the twrp flash and restarted but when it got to the ASUS boot up screen it simply stopped. I waited about 10 minutes for it to possibly load however it never did. So I am restored back to my stock and am awaiting any further help.

In the OP for PACman rom it says you must be on android 4.1.1 to flash his rom. You need to pick a rom for your 4.2.1. I am also on 4.2.1 and run CROMI 4.6.6 with no issues. Have also succesfully tried the Energy rom. Read carefully the OP for the rom's you are considering and make sure they are for 4.2.1

I am having the same problem! I am running 4.2.1 and im trying to install blackbean 8 using twrp 2.5.0.0. I factory reset in twrp and wipe cache and dalvic. I then install the the rom and reboot but it will not go past the first boot screen with the tegra logo in the bottom right. It always flashes for a second but then does nothing. I have even tried cm 10.1 and it does the exact same thing. I am still able to restore back to stock. This is my first time flashing a rom so any help would be appreciated!
For the latest [ROM][4.2.2][ OFFICIAL] PAC-man v23.0.0 [OC up to 1.7GHz][New Update 22/06/2013], if you read the installation process, you need to be 4.1.1 and not 4.2.1 and also you need installed custom recovery for JB 4.1 BL !
For the latest [ROM]ASU-JellyBean-Hydro 8 (6/29/13)Liquid Butter..- Tf300 -Official 10.6.1.15.3 Base, you need to be on 4.2.1 and 10.6.15.3 bootloader
and you will see to the changelog:
...not sure if any bootloader will work...

[Q] Bootloader/CM10.1 Confusion

Hey guys, so I unlocked and rooted my brothers TF300t last year, and now I'm having problems updating to the latest version of CM10.1. His tablet is currently on bootloader version 10.4.2.9 and CM10.1 20130612, and when I try to install the latest version of CM10.1 nightlies, the tablet just hangs on the Asus logo. (It's xplodwild's ROM) I'm running CWM 6.0.1.3 on his tablet. I thought I'd ask the great minds of XDA so that I'm completely sure I'm not going to brick my brothers tablet, because I can't afford to buy him a new one if I ruin this one. Plus I'd look like a complete retard :highfive:
So what am I doing wrong? I used to flash ROM's all the time on my old HTC phone, and I don't remember having to worry about my bootloader version much. Do I need to upgrade to a newer bootloader version? Is my recovery out of date? I've tried doing a full wipe and installing the latest ROM as well as installing over top his current version, and nothing works, it just hangs at the Asus logo.
If any further clarifications are needed, please let me know. I appreciate any and all help! Thanks.

Switching KK ROMs

Hello,
Please help me clear this up.... I have a TF300T which, until recently, had latest stock 4.2 ROM.
So I followed instructions carefully... unlocked bootloader, and successfully installed TWRP 2.8 and a custom KK ROM.
All fine but I now want to try a different one. All ROMs caution that I have to be on stock JB bootloader before installing. And that's where I get confused. Anyone can help me with precise instructions on what I need to do now, before installing a different KK ROM? Don't want to brick the tablet.
Thank you!

The prerequisite for installing a KK ROM is being on the stock JB bootloader, which you are on. Flashing the first KK Rom did not change the bootloader; it only changed the software that was run after the bootloader.
If you want to flash another KK Rom, just factory reset (from inside TWRP) and then flash the KK Rom from inside TWRP. After that, flash any GApps, mods, or kernels you want.

This is my question too!
I have a ROM that requires twrp 2.7.0.0. But the ROM I want to switch to says it needs the latest version of twrp recovery. The JB bootloader requirement makes me leery as well. I did originally start with jb 4.2. So I want to be sure as well. Can't afford to end up with a brick.

Asus TF700 displays huge keboard on screen

Hi guys I have researched this and did not find any answers. I installed CleanRom Inheritance 3.5- 10.4.4.25US DEODEX and now when I click to display keyboard it appers super zoomed in and when I click any key it activates a different key. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
You flashed a really old rom (and no longer supported). What resolution did you flash it with?
Assuming you are on the 10.6.1.14.10 bootloader, I would recommend you flash a compatible recovery (TWRP 2.6.1+) and CROMi-X 5.4 if you want to stay on a JB 4.2 Asus firmware based rom (but do not expect any further updates on it) or you flash TWRP 2.8+ and flash a KK rom like CROMBi-KK or ZOMBi-X which are still supported. Well, kinda. The main dev for these roms has some more urgent stuff to care of right now, so there has not been an update lately...
I would recommend you clean flash CROMi-X 5.4 and take it from there...
