Mainly it happens when You go to TWRP after flashing it without reboot. Reboot should fix it, if not - reboot tablet after flashing TWRP.

Well what had happened to me was I already had an old version of TWRP on my internal memory and I put the new version on my SD card which I wanted to flash. When I flashed twrp.blob, it flashed a very old version with an incompatible bootloader (whoops) which gave me the password error. So I put the new version on my internal memory, flashed twrp.blob again, and it worked.

I've do something wrong again.... i'm stuck in the password section...
To trying to reset the password problem, i've flash the older blob i've found on TWRP, the 2.1.4. reboot the tablet, trying to enter in the RCK section, nothing append, like a freeze... so I reboot, flash the newer blob, the 2.6.3.0... reboot... enter in the RCK, and always the password...
i'm going crazy... i'm about to slam the tablet! :silly::crying:

delete the 2.1.4 trwp from your tablet altogether
The do this exactly from fastboot:
Download the file, check the md5, rename to twrp.blob and put the file in the same directory as your fastboot.exe (unless you have /platform-tools in PATH then you can flash from anywhere). Turn off your device and boot to fastboot (power on while holding volume down, then select the usb icon and hit volume up to confirm). The device will now be in fastboot mode. Plug the device into your computer. Run the following command via the command line:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob

So put the 2.6 -42 TWRP in your fastboot folder, then run the command.

ok, i will try to resart form the beginning.
The driver in windows is installed. When i'm on android, I can copy and see the tablet in the explorer. When i reboot the tablet in bootloader mode, again in windows I see a "android device in bootloader", Fastboot command work when I try fastboot -devices, I see the device.
I'm on 4.2.1 but I need to reflash and wipe all the data to install a better custom rom, I know TWRP because i'm using it on my N7...
It's after that... that going really bad for me and I don't know why.....

My Asus TF300T Is Completely Dead!

I had upgraded to 4.2 firmware (WW_epad-user-10.6.1.8) using the second method described on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187982. This worked well and everything was working until I messed up today D: I was trying to flash SuperSU using TWRP but it couldn't recognize my Internal SD Card so I thought there might be something wrong with my installation. When I entered the bootloader I noticed the message: Key driver not found.. Booting OS. I don't know what this means. I did not read the first thread in the General section and tried to do a restore using the 4.2 firmware package. I used the "fastboot flash system blob" command and this time everything was messed up. The blue bar that appears on installation is no longer appearing and I have an "unrecoverable bootloader" error. Nothing I did worked! What should I do?? Please provide me some simple steps. I used these commands before flashing system blob...
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
This was a very stupid move on my part but I thought this would allow a clean install D: D: Please help!
gee man you completely wiped the sucker, you may be bricked =(. i would start by trying to fastboot flash the patched version of twrp. unless you can boot into twrp already then try to flash the asus package again thru twrp. also, could twrp see your internal sd before you bricked?

No, that is the reason why I wiped everything (stupid move I know)...TWRP was screwed up to begin with. I flashed 2.5 JB version and it couldn't detect my internal SD card. I made sure it was the right model and everything so TWRP messed me up. I don't know how to flash a working version of TWRP since I don't know what version works with 4.2 tf300 firmware.

I'm not sure how to flash it...I tried fastboot flash recovery twrp.blob (2.4.4.0 v4.2). It just freezes although the cmd says it was successful
I keep getting a bootloader error (0x0000000) everytime I try and enter RCK, Android, Wipe Data... Is there a way to reinstall the bootloader? WW_epad 10.6.1.8
No mate
As of now there's no solution to that.
Do ppl ever read before they flash? I've never seen as much bricks as I've seen on this device since the new 10.6x.x Asus bootloader... it's a shame
Read read read, understand understand understand, then read more. I almost feel sorry for you guys who are "just flashing away"

Bump!
I have a couple of questions.
I would like to know about your bootloader (how many icons and which ones) and whether you can still get into twrp.

Okay, so when I press Volume Down + Power, I enter the bootloader. The bootloader has three icons: RCK, Android Logo, Wipe Data. I have no access to TWRP since there is a unrecoverable bootloader error 0x0000000 when I try to enter RCK.

The odds are slim but let's try a couple of things.
From power off, hold power and volume down, release when you see the icons. You should see the entering fastboot message in the upper left.
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot bootloader
if that fails
Power off and use the same procedure.
fastboot reboot bootloader
Tell me the result.

Okay, I tried both and it doesn't work without adding a hyphen in between reboot and bootloader so reboot-bootloader. Otherwise, with the hyphen added, both work.

Sorry for that mistake. Now try rck and let's see if the bootloader is now accepted. If we are lucky the result has changed.

Eh...I don't really know how to explain this but this is what happened. Once the bootloader rebooted after entering the CMD command, I pressed volume up to access RCK and there was a "blink" and there is now a green glowing square around the Android Icon. I cannot move the volume up or down (it is frozen on the Android Icon with the green square glowing), so I don't know what that "blink" was. If i try to press volume up now there is the bootloader error again.

When you say 2.5 JB version...are you talking about TWRP? I don't think TWRP is on the tablet because I can't access it. All I saw was a blink when I pressed volume up on RCK, not TWRP? I have tried flash system blob before I posted here and it did nothing. There is no progress bar when fastboot flashing =/ I think it froze. Yup it froze, just tried to do fastboot reboot-bootloader and it said failed. Also, after the system was done writing, after 2 seconds it said complete so it didn't work.

I have never used the stock recovery so what is it supposed to look like? Is it that dead Android with the battery because that didn't show up? I will try and get an external sd card tomorrow and try it if you think it might work. I have the 4.2 bootloader so are you sure that I should put Version V10.4.2.20 and recover using that version? Anyways, if it ends up not working, I would just like to say thank you very much for trying.

Recovery failing to flash

So I flash the stock rom on it without thinking and now it wont let me flash a recovery to the tablet threw fastboot or goomanager and it wont update throguh asus update but its booting fine and wont take any updates at all i need help being pointed in the right direction!
I flashed the wrong bootloader i think and how do i flash the correct bootloader without a recover?
in fastboot im getting the error: cannot load 'file name' :no error weather its cm or twrp it wont load it and i dont know what to do please help
First of all it would be important to know what bootloader you are actually on. You do not want to flash a recovery that is not compatible with your bootloader!
So boot into the bootloader with Volume Down and POWER and read the tiny script. From there select the Android with Volume Down and boot back to system with Volume Up.
And then please report in detail what you are trying to do in fastboot, which commands you use etc.
Without knowing what you are doing we cannot tell you what you are doing wrong.....
First step: In fastboot command: fastboot devices - Do you see the serial number of your tab?

So you are on an ICS bootloader with a JB rom... How the hell did you manage to do that?
You did not answer my question about fastboot. What you tried and what did not work.
But anyway, how I would proceed, just to get you back into safe territory, is to download the latest Asus firmware 10.6.1.14.10, unzip the downloaded file once and copy the resulting zip to the root of your internal SD.
Reboot, and hopefully the stock recovery will recognize the update file and flash you to JB 4.2.1 (which BTW is the latest version for our tabs - there never was, and probably never will be a 4.2.2). Flashing the stock firmware will replace the bootloader.
So from there you just have to get fastboot working, flash the latest TWRP and then the custom rom of your choice COMPATIBLE with your bootloader and recovery.
If that doesn't work we have to try something else. But try this first and report.

[Q] 2 Issues when rooting: No SU binary installed, & red triangle on dead android.

[Q] 2 Issues when rooting: No SU binary installed, & red triangle on dead android.
This is my second root ever, I am still very new to this process but my first root went smoothly.
So basically the problem started when I copied the SuperSU file onto my phone using the command
adb push UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.XX.zip /sdcard/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After that, I tried finding the zip file through the TWRP recovery screen but I couldn't. I figured I'd go reboot my device. Once I pressed on reboot, a screen popped up asking if I wanted to install SuperSU, "ok cool" I thought and swiped to the right to install. At this point I thought my phones rooted.
I open up SuperSU and I get the error message:
There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!
If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device!

How did you apply TWRP? Did you boot it or flash it. If you chose to boot it, the custom recovery won't stick.
The dead android you are seeing is the stock recovery.
My advice is to boot back into the bootloader and flash the recovery, then flash the SU,zip

The red triangle with the android is just the stock recovery. What commands are you using to flash TWRP? I'm assuming you unlocked the boot loader.
You should type in "fastboot flash recovery name_of_twrp_file.img"
Download the supersu.zip from http://download.chainfire.eu/376/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.89.zip and put it on your phone while the phone is on and connected to a computer. (Just drag it in)
Then reboot into TWRP and flash that file.
Say NO..again NO to the part when it asks you if you want to root. It shouldn't ask you, but if it does, say no.

Maybe, try using the new zip. Flash TWRP again. It shouldn't be going back to the stock recovery when you reboot unless you chose to just boot it and not flash it.

And it's odd, I have SuperSU zip 1.80, you think that's the problem? I took it straight off this guide though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507905

Yep, that is the correct command. I would recommend using the most recent SU.zip as well.
aooga said:
Maybe, try using the new zip. Flash TWRP again. It shouldn't be going back to the stock recovery when you reboot unless you chose to just boot it and not flash it.

I'll install the SuperSU you linked to me thanks! would you mind explaining to me how to flash it again?
I just open bootloader, command window then flash the recovery file once more?

Yeah just download THIS FILE first then boot into the bootloader and type in "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-hammerhead.img" without the quotes in a CMD window.
After it says finished, use the volume keys to select "Recovery Mode" and press the power button to go into it. Then flash the supersu file that you transferred earlier. (the new version).

Try adb sideloading it.
Put the Su.zip on your computer in the same folder as your adb.exe
Choose adb sideload on twrp.
Then the command: adb sideload SU.zip

Yep! I didn't know what the file was named so I just shortened it up to SU.zip
Pro-tip: You can rename files to something shorter such as SU.zip to make it quicker to type in command and eliminate the possibility of mistakes.

You are welcome. I am always glad to help someone doing things the right way!
Run an app that requires root. If SuperSu requests access, you are rooted.

Hi!
I hope you can help me.
I obviously did something wrong.
Well I did unlock my tablet and got twrp running, also installed the rom but next after the reboot it just doesn't work and i will get this message (see the picture)
After that i am sent back to the interface of twrp.
I just recogniced I have twrp v.2.6.1.0 running - is that the problem?
Hopefully somebody can help me!

YOU MUST BE ON THE ASUS STOCK JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.14.x AND TWRP 2.6.3.2+ OR CWM 6.0.4.6+ BEFORE FLASHING THIS ROM.
This is copied directly from the Developers ROM.

You didn't use 'Wipe Data' from the bootloader, did you?
Read the OP for CROMBI-KK, compare it to what you did.
Describe in detail what that was.
"Does not work" is not very helpful...
Check if you can get into fastboot.

Well,
I can go to Twrp recovery and fastboot
I did install the rom with everything present I think.. had to select some things and finish the installing
after that I had to reboot and now i just get the image with the penguins.
Can I somehow go back to the original rom? to restart these things?

If you made a nandroid before flashing this, then yes, you should be able to restore it.
But let's take it from the beginning. Post your bootloader, recovery and rom versions.
As long as you have access to fastboot you can fix this, so don't do anything hasty.
And please be as specific as you can about what you did. We can only help you if we find out where you went wrong.

hm ok I will try
well, I didn't make a nandroid backup - my fault :<
are there specific bootloader? I was on JB 4.2.1
I am now on twrp v2.6.3.2 but I was while I did the flashing on twrp v2.6.1
hm I did flash crombi-kk rom from the OP
maybe I did some wipe before in twrp .. i think it was recommended?
so now I can't do any reflash or anything in twrp - everytime I want to do something there is this error:
E: Unable to open '/cache/recovery/.version'
I also can't get access to my external SD
Check if you can get into fastbot.
Long press Power and Volume Down until you see tiny script.
Read it and post the bootloader version: 10.6.1.14.?

All right, your bootloader is current.
I would recommend that you flash TWRP 2.7 in fastboot, then boot into it, do a Factory Wipe in TWRP (that can take upwards of 60 minutes) and flash the rom again.
Ok.. I tried but I got the answer
failed (data transfer failure (too many links))
hm I think I've got no connection, right?
well and now I get the message:
FAILED ( command write failed( invalid argument))
What do you get with 'fastboot devices'?

Alright, everything good so far.
Now download the TWRP 2.7 blob for the tf700 and put it into the same folder as your fastboot.exe.
Then issue this command:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob
if that is successful
Code:
fastboot reboot
Then boot into TWRP via the fastboot menu.
Then you can factory wipe and flash the rom

Well I did that but nothing works
I've got now twrp 2.7 and i did that factory wipe but nothing ever happens.. just the usual message
'unable to open 'cache/recovery/.version'
Don't know what I did wrong :<
http://imageshack.com/a/img842/662/kwy9.png
that's the message I everytime get - doesn't matter if it's a wipe or install or something else
in bootlooder at the top there is this message:
>key driver not found... booting 05<
is it possible to formate my complete data, because I think therein lies the problem, exept fastboot on my device and flash a recovery from fastboot?

If you want to try that, go to the Wipe menu in TWRP, then to Advanced and choose "format data".
In TWRP this can take 90 minutes! D not interrupt it and make sure the tablet is charged or connected to power.
But this will erase your entire data.
The recovery has it's own partition which you can erase in fastboot:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
.
Then flash the new recovery. You could also try TWRP 2.6.3.2 if 2.7 doesn't work.

Your posted image indicates that simulation mode is active in TWRP - turn if off in TWRP settings.
To format data, it's approximately this: Wipe -> Advanced -> Format -> Data -> confirm
Note that it takes up to 2 hours to format and trim the eMMC.

...which is usually a stupid idea if you don't know exactly what you are doing.
Well I don't know how but it suddenly worked.. i could reinstall the rom but now it seems i am stuck in a bootloop between the picture of the four penguins and a bootscreen of crombi-kk with loading tiles under it
between these two the tablet is rebooting itself constantly
Go back to recovery and do a wipe only Calvin cache and Cache.

[Q] [SOLVED] i think its bricked! any suggestion?

hey guys!
Firstly, i want to install TF300 KitKat 4.4.2 CROMBi-kk my tf300 but my twrp version isnt compatible with this rom. I try to update my twrp to 2.7.0.0 at this topic "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2686235"
Secondly, i flashed my recovery to 2.7.0.0 with fastboot but it isn't successfully completed. After that i try to flash official twrp ver. 2.6.3.0 (I guess i updated wrong ver of twrp) and it's accomplished.
After update process, i restarted my tf300 but android doesn't start and teamwin screen came. twrp show my internal memory 0 mb.
Now, i can start my OS through adb with "adb reboot-bootloader " command and select android.
First question. How can fix internal memory problem?
Second question. How can i change twrp ver. with true ver.?
Third question. How can i install new clean ROM?
thanks for your interest.
any help?

You don't get answers probably because it's hard to understand what it is you're asking. I understand English may not be your first tongue, but that's the only means of communication we have here. So try your best English: What exactly is your problem?
