So I assumed that your device is unlocked? I recommend to flash twrp, more easier and works wellstart with section 2).

cyanogen mod forum has a good wiki on fastboot.

I don't think you did it correctly, first boot you should see the 4 icons and you need to hit the volume down button on your device (within 10sec) to select USB icon then hit the volume up button to select this setting, now proceed with the instruction on your pc to flash. Make sure you copy the recovery twrp file named" openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf700t.blob" from here http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/tf700t to the "install Recovery" folder and RENAME this file to recovery.blob

Sounds like your pc is not communicate correctly with your device. When your device is on and you execute Scott's bat file, is your device reboot into recovery so that you can select fastboot mode? Basically, Scott bat file is using adb command to reboot your device into recovery mode, you manually select and enable fast boot mode on your device, then the script is using fastboot command to push the recovery.blob (located in the same directory as Scott bat file) to your device.

And you did select the USB icon and the text displayed "fastboot" on your device? You also have the twrp renamed to recovery.blob in the same folder as the script? Let manually push this file using fastboot.exe and see what's happens.

don't trust the log from fastboot or any script. Just make sure the recovery.blog is in the same directory of the fastboot command and you must execute fastboot.exe from command prompt.
1. manually boot to fastboot mode from your device. (boot to recovery then select USB icon)
2. Open command prompt and run as admin and navigate to fastboot.exe directory (with recovery.blog in this directory also)
3. type;
fastboot.exe -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.blob
4. Once done, type
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
Let me know the status.

This is what I get recovery.blob is in the folder and fastboot works as I can delete recovery just not write for some reason

error: cannot load 'recovery.blob': No error
H:\Users\Install user>
Also I would also like to point out it does not let me reboot after I write the files (using holding shift key and opening command prompt) as it freezes I think??? BEcause I can reboot from fastboot before I input writing flash recovery but after it wont allow don't know why?

Did you even notice that you didn't change to drive C: before calling fastboot? Is your recovery.blob in C:\Fastboot or in "H:\Users\Install user"?

Try this, copy the recovery.blob to this directory:
H:\Users\Install user\
Then type dir then hit enter, make sure your fastboot.exe and recovery.blob are there
H:\Users\Install user> dir then hit enter
Should show both fastboot.exe and recovery.blob
Now execute the fastboot command to push the recovery.blob

Nope, no Odin, but if your device is rooted, you could download goomanager from the market and install twrp using goomanager app.

[Q] CID incorrect update fail!

Hi guys,
I've got an HTC Chacha unlocked bootloader S-ON. I just successfully rooted it yesterday and had CWM installed. Unfortunately, while I was browsing how to increase internal memory via youtube, I installed another CWM (SkinCWM) as his video told the viewers that it can work on any android phone.I even partitioned my SD card for it.
My problem is I cant go to Recovery. It just keeps saying CID Incorrect, Update Fail!
I know there are a lot of CID threads but I assume the problem came when I installed the SkinCWM (for galaxy Y).
Please help. Knowledge on this: Dependent on tutorials.
Thank you.

Connect your phone in fastboot-usb mode and run commend prompt in your pc(if you are using Windows). then go to fastboot.exe directory by typing:
Code:
cd X:\directory
now erase your recovery partition by typing :
Code:
fastboot erase your-partition-name
This trick must solve your problem.

At first you should download adb-fastboot toolkit to your computer.
Download it here : CLICK TO DOWNLOAD
Then extract it to your Windows drive.
Run Commend Prompt in your computer by typing CMD in RUN.(or anyway)
Type :
Code:
cd C:\Android
(C is your Windows drive, it could be D,E,etc.)
Now boot your phone on fastboot mode and connect it to PC and type :
Code:
fastboot erase <partition>
(you should type your recovery partition name instead of <partition>, it could be
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
etc.)
and you can follow this instruction if you have problem around ROOT : [Guide][S-OFF] How to root HTC Chacha (for S-OFF only)

Thanks mortal. However, as a noob on this, i really dont know how to get the partition name to erase it.... Would a factory reset do the trick? or would it just be in the same scenario after factory reset?

[Q] [NEED HELP] How to restore stock ROM to Moto G (Please read desc)

Hi,
I have messed around with my rooted Moto G and edited build.props. I turned on my phone and a message came up saying "error system.ui has stopped"' this message kept repeating every time I pressed OK.
After failing to fix it, I went onto my recovery and wiped the storage, cache and dalvik. Obviously now when I turn on the phone it just stays on the boot image and nothing happens.I put the phone into fast boot by holding power and vol down, then tried to flash 4.4.2 Stock ROM to my phone but all CMD says is "waiting for device". I'm not sure what to do from here.
Can anyone help me at all? I've already posted before but no one seems to help me.
If you need any screenshots etc I will add them
Thanks,
Matt

@barky02
what are you using to try and install your stock rom? are you just in command prompt terminal or using a program?
anyway,,, your phone needs to be in fastboot mode to be able to run adb commands

When your phone is off, push volume down and power button simultaneously for a few seconds, then it should start fastboot. Plug in your USB cable and proceed with other steps as guide says.

in the command prompt try this

then type

then try running the commands...
I believe you are a full xt1028 Verizon phone?
I know what I do for 4.4.2 is using the file
CFC-fastboot_falcon_verizon_user_4.4.2_KXB20.9-1.10-1.20_22_release-keys.xml.zip
un-zip [extract] that file,,,
then make sure you copy and paste from the "/windows" folder in the zip
fastboot.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
cAdbWinUsbApi.dll
into the main folder [where your .bat file is]
with phone connected to pc...
then open it up and double click on the .bat file

after reading some more up on mfastboot I don't believe you have to use the adb commands...
you should be able to use this file mfastboot.bat.txt as long as you have the mfastboot.exe on your pc
download it and move it into your "EE-GB-SL_FALCON_KLB20.9-1.10-1.24-1.1_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml" folder
then rename it to just mfastboot.bat
and doubleclick that
and follow along
don't worry if you see errors on your device screen, it's normal
this is the contents and the correct flashing order of the bat file
and are for that xml.zip that you have
edit:: edited to remove file and update below code to hopefully work
Code:
SET mfastboot=mfastboot.exe
%mfastboot% flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
%mfastboot% flash partition gpt.bin
%mfastboot% flash motoboot motoboot.img
%mfastboot% flash logo logo.bin

I already have that installed, and it still doesn't work. A lot of threads are saying to enable usb debugging, but I can't do that in the phones current state right?

[Q] Can't Flash 5.0 Image

I can't flash the image file. It fails for some reasons.
I'm getting an error message("fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command") in cmd when I open flash-all.bat file.
phone is rooted, with open bootloader. I had AOKP custom rom before i tried to flash 5.0.
Any Ideas what to do?

It means you've not copied the files into your ADB folder as it can't find the fastboot files

open the folder where you extracted the tarbal
hold down shift and right click
open command prompt here
do a "fastboot devices" to check if your device is connected
continue flashing using the commands.

This won't work if fastboot binary isn't in env PATH.

"Into your FASTBOOT folder". adb's got nothing to do with this.

worked for me i never had to put anything into my android tools folder, i have system wide access no matter where i open up the command prompt.

Easiest way is to extract the sh1t out of the Google file until you eventually see all the img files. Then extract the fastboot zip into the same folder they're in and open a command prompt there.

Because it's in your PATH.

People refer to the folder with ADB and fastboot in it as the ADB folder (If you had adb/fastboot in the system path this wouldn't even be required)
Do you really think I meant them to use ADB? Come on, now

Makes more sense I guess, just more to type! This is where being in PATH makes life better

[SOLVED]cannot load factory image using fastboot

My phone is the Indian version of XT1033 2013. I was trying to install a factory image so downloaded an image(XML). I have downloaded 3 more images since(all XML). Every time the same error message pops up 'image is too big'. My internal data got erased so it's not as if I can go back to my previous ROM. One solution on a XDA thread suggested using mfastboot( I use minimal adb and fastboot), but my device isn't recognized by mfastboot. No such problems arose with minimal fastboot. My adb is also disabled, so I cannot push any ROM. What should I do now ?
Edit: i got out of the boot loop easy. My OTG wasn't recognized by CWM because it was using NTFS. Formatted and changed to FAT32, and voila !

You have to drop mfastboot.exe in the same folder as the firmware image files. Then navigate in command prompt to that location.

Provide a log if you still have problems. Copy and paste command prompt screen. Take screenshots.

Done that already

The image file was too big. As I said, i tried it with 4-5 factory images. Nothing. So I managed to flash a ROM using OTG. It was simple,really. Thanks for repying !
