Basically Ive had my tf300t for just over a year
i was running stock untill the jb update shortly after I rooted and flashed cleanrom somewhere between this feb and april
the rom flashed fine using CWM 6.0.1.3 but in May my tablet was stepped on and the screen was cracked
i had it fixed when i got it back the screen had no TOUCH
So heres my issue stupid me... whatever knowledge i have about android has come off of this website
so i dont know why i figured i could do this myself
Either way when i fixed the screen i wanted to flash a new rom
so i downloaded latest pacman 4.3 and went about a proper flash i wiped data and cache in recovery
but when i went to flash the rom it appeared recovery had wiped my micro sd instead with all my backups
i ended up going into what i understand is the bootloader..its the screen with four options RCK android usb and wipe data...
i choose the later of the four options which completely wiped the tablet.. i thought it was the same procedure as in recovery
so at the moment the tablet bootloops however i can boot CWM also the screen i mentioned earlier (RCK / ANDROID / USB / WIPE DATA)... ive tried to flash a rom and i keep getting an error saying the file is bad... so now ive looked all over this forum but i really cant find anything that directy helps me i know there are issues with CWM but unfortunately i cant use the touch features which come in TWRP and my computer wont install the drivers or id try pushing the rom to the internal sd.....
really any help would be apreciated any at all just please bear in mind i need to stay on a non touch recovery
bootloader screen reads----> Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "WW_epad-10.4.2.17-20121018" A03
recovery ----> CWM 6.0.1.3 and getting a lot of errors
It looks like You installed pacman on 4.1 firmware, I'm right? Most current custom ROMs can be installed only on 4.2 stock firmware. First of all try to remove all asus software and drivers for tablet from Your PC and install nacked drivers. Then reinstall stock firmware through fastboot(I hope You know how to enter fasboot mode) to fix tablet (use firmware version as You have before brick or newer).
P.S.: And CWM doesn't support new ROM as well, so use proper version of TWRP.

OK i installed naked drivers on a pc that had never seen the tablet before or any asus device for that matter...your link to fastboot seemed really confusing to me so i just downloaded Minimal ADB and Fastboot using post 2 on this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277112 and then tried to flash the stock asus firmware following instructions from post 4 but the commands all came back with problems
ill post the screenshot any input is greatly apreciated!
Try to use usb port on rear side of desktop PC. Front usb ports and laptops can cause problems to fastboot.
Alright I'll have to find a desktop thanks for your help and as far as the commands I used, was i doing everything right? is there difference in commands when flashing a custom ROM and flashing stock firmware through fastboot?
I can use commands like fastboot reboot-bootloader and fastboot devices they work successfully

When I hold the power button plus Volume down key I am only getting two options. One is to wipe data and the other is to enter USB Fastboot mode. I just upgraded to the latest TWRP recovery and when I click the Wipe icon the TWRP splash screen shows up for a second. What I am hoping is that someone has some insight as to why the recovery icon has disappeared and how to get it back. Usually I am not the person asking the questions generally I am the one answering. If anyone has a clue it would definitively help. I did search and found a couple threads where something similar happened but there was no direct answer as how to fix it. Please help.

I had a similar issue when I restored a TWRP backup I made with pre version 2.2.1. I was able to get help from the Dees_Troy on IRC.
Notes from IRC conversation
Whatever you restored from your pre TWRP 2.2.1 old backup is not a kernel. The dev that made the original device configuration files for the 300 couldn't find boot . So he just threw boot onto the wrong partition you need to install a working kernel via fastboot.
Steps that got me backup and running.
1. Flashed latest TWRP via fastboot. 'fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob' rebooted
2. Downloaded a cm9 rom and opened the zip file and extract boot.blob . Flashed with 'fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash boot boot.blob' then rebooted.
Now TWRP recovery worked and I was able to install a new custom rom.
Backups made with version 2.2.1 or grater work correctly for me now.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!

hey Im sry I never posted here b4 but I think this thread is the closest to the problem I have. My tf300 jad 4.1.1 ota update, i decided to change the rom since it seemed to have so many advantages. I installed TWRP correctly and according to the process I made later with debugfs tool I got root. It was all good but then I messed up, I installed Hydroponyc rom without backing up my rom and from then on, all hell broke loose. I can acces Clockworck (I changed TWRP for clock thought it might help......) and fastboot but any rom I install it doesnt go past the first asus logo that says device is unlocked on the upper left of the screen. Is there anyway u could help me please? Forgive my noobness I never posted here b4 I dont know if Im breaking any rule but i dont wanna wind up with a very expensive paper weight.
Did I brick it?

hey I was super frustrated by this but I took some time out and then I found this post I tried it and it worked perfectly give it a shot
Looks like partition sizes chaged with the Asus update. I couldn't flash CM10 or any other rom as well (signature mismatch). If you installed the official 4.1.1 update, you need to manually install it again. Older versions and rollbacks wont work unless you push to some trickery mmcblk0p4, but that's another thread in itself
Download the JB update from Asus's website (if you still have it, that's fine) and extract the blob file. Put the blob file in teh same directory as your fastboot. Boot your TF300 into bootloader and enter:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
It will take a while to install, so be patient. Hope this helps

you can flash the file named "blob" extracted from stock JB zip file(download from ASUS website,now there is only US SKU,10.4.2.29),it's about 7XX MB,then use the command "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob" (put the blob in the same directory with fashboot),It will restore your JB OS.till now,other rom can not work by this way.

What if you can only boot to APX mode? I only have the option of using that because my unlocked bootloader got erased in the process of updating to JB. Is there a way to install a bootloader using fastboot? Or will it only work with an existing bootloader?
In other words, when I issue the fastboot command
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
I get "waiting on device" and nothing happens after that.
Thank you, this worked !!!!!!
Hi ppl!
First, my device failed to get the OTA Update because I deleted some system apps (see my original post).
Then I found this post where another user restored original APKs in /system/apps and managed to manually update to JB by downloading the dlpkgfile in this post.
So I proceed, restored my /system/apps (with 755 permissions), rooted with OTA RootKeeper and SuperSU, placed the dlpkgfile and command files, restarted to fastboot (Power+Vol Down) and entered Recovery mode.
The green android with the blue progress bar went for over 10 minutes, then ... the android with the RED TRIANGLE appeared
After a minute or so the device restarted, an ASUS logo with a blue progress bar ran, but then it got stuck in the ASUS logo.
I'm still able to restart to fastboot (Power+Vol Down), where a message appears:
Code:
Android cardhu-user bootloader (1.00 e) released by "US_epad-10.4.2.9-20120809" A03
, and where I have 4 choices:
1. RCK: Recovery mode, when I select this the Red Triangle appears again.
2. Android: Normal android boot, gets freeze right away
3. Fastboot USB download protocol: Tried using ADB, but don't really know what it is. Here's an image of how the device appear in my Windows PC
4. Wipe Data: Already done this, seems to wipe user data, but still gets stuck on ASUS logo
Some pictures I took of my device: http://imgur.com/I13ou http://imgur.com/Jezpn
I also tried downloading .30 firmware from ASUS website and placing the Zip contents in my SD card, then booting recovery but no luck.
It's pretty awful that everything went so bad, I'm hoping there is a solution.
Anything would be really appreciated!!!
Thanks!

OK, I found this tutorial about flashing ASUS firmware with fastboot: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-restore-asus-transformer-tf300t-back-to-stock/
The problem is that the following commands:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system US_epad-user-9.4.3.30.zip
both produce the error: "Signature mismatch"
I guess it's becaus my fastboot is newer version, since it was actually installed during the JB update, but I'm trying to flash a older .30 firmware.
I gues I will have to wait ASUS releases the new firmware for manual flashing it.
Just guessing...

That is exactly what I'm wanting to know if it's even possible. If I can safely downgrade, I can re-root, but I'm limited on what I can do with a locked bootloader.

I tried to do manual update in cwm and when I rebooted with adb all I have is asus boot logo, it also does not say I have an unlocked bootloader,
I have no fastboot no recovery no adb connect all I have is asus boot logo.......volume+-power does nothing vol down + power also does nothing.

Thank you so much! I had this same problem with mine and couldn't find an answer anywhere until I found your post.
hmm, I lost my tablet for nearly a month then updated CM10 when prompted having connected to my new wireless. This of course (since the Oct update) put the ROM out of kilter with the bootloader. I didn't have an old ROM on the SDCARD, and old CWM so I couldn't mount an external to get a rom on. I tried pushing a rom to the SD with adb but the drivers weren't going in right and I just couldn't get any joy. I followed this thread to fastboot the current stock JB on in the hope that it would give me a fresh start but it's hanging now at the second (glossy) ASUS logo. I really don't know where to go from here. Is it possible there was a problem with the write?

Can you tell me how you erased memory from boot menu - or maybe i understand this in different way.
I have only bootloop and it boots to CWM where i cannot mount any SD card - not internal not external.
Also Vol down + power doesnt work - there is no option to enter fastboot mode....device just bootloops and then enters CWM...
Tried to push through adb but there is no SD card to copy files. Tried different methods but cannot mount any storage...

No you haven't you need to download fastboot and connect the tablet to your computer, on that screen just let it sit their.
Download the asus firmware. Follow the flashing fastboot guides here. You need to flash the blob file.

Flashing via fastboot works fine and I have already reflashed the blob file and reflashed cwm recovery. still the same issue: "Key driver not found" and upon chosing entering RCK it freezes. OS boots fine, no issue here. Any clues? Should I flash the stock kernel from Asus?

well, I am using a win xp machine for fastboot. so I don't have the same issues. fastboot works fine, so that I use the normal fastboot process to flash the system and the recovery kernel.
I finally got it to work again by flashing the newest TWRP instead of CWM. It seems CWM does not yet work on the latest firmware.
I followed this guide for flashing TWRP with fastboot. This version actually also just asked me, if I want to root the device, I clicked yes and it was rooted. Perfect.

Flashing via fastboot works fine and I have already reflashed the blob file and reflashed cwm recovery. still the same issue: "Key driver not found" and upon chosing entering RCK it freezes. OS boots fine, no issue here. Any clues? Should I flash the stock kernel from Asus?

I am in EXACTLY the same boat as you. The only difference is that I flashed TWRP instead of CWM. I finally decided that it was time to root my tablet...got tired of the lag. IIRC I've gotten the "key driver not found.. booting OS" error message since doing the OTA update to 4.2 (I did this prior to rooting.) Everything SEEMS to be working okay, but this bugs the heck outta me, and I'm sure it can't be a good thing. Hoping somebody will chime in with a fix for this. I've searched and searched to no avail.
sorry for my poor english:crying:
i hope you can understand what i need help
my TF300T OTA updated 4.2.1
tonight i unlocked my TF300T and flashed CWMV6.0.2.3
but the recovery can't mount all choice in "mounts and storage"
then i see this"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206996"
he said"FIXED!!! Did a wipe....in the fastboot screen (not in recovery since it didn't work)And now the internal sd is visible and mounted, so next step flashed supersu......aaaaaaand i'm done "
then i do the same
a wipe in fastboot screen
and now i can't enter fastboot screen (no matter have/not press volumedown+power）
it can only enter recovery but do nothing becasue recovery can‘t mount everything
i have no confidence you will understand my english...
are there other ways enter fastboot？how can i revive it only can use recovery？
many thanks
May i ask another question for help
i did the wipe data in bootloader once
now in recovery mode /adb devices can get it
but in bootloader /fastboot devices can't connect my device now
so i can't flash The official firmware use /fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash system blob
are there anyway to fix it？
thanks verymuch
i have the same problem. only i flasher the latest twrp recovery. TWRP 2.4.4.0 Touch Recovery
First, CWM 6.0.2.3 is not compatible with Asus 4.2.1, you should have done a little bit of reading and you would have found this very useful thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187982 where it explains everything you can possibly know and need about upgrading and flashing recovery and gain root. on 4.2.1
Both of you guys have flashed incompatible recovery versions for your bootloaders and now are stuck, try to access Fastboot, keep trying update your drivers and also check several USB ports because fastboot is your only choice now.

Hi all,
I try to explain all and I try to be brief:
- Asus Padfone 2 with lastest stock rom and update
- Rooted with Towelroot apk
- Have a TWRP recovery that haven't any backup mode, so I want to install a CWM recovery to do a backup of my phone in case I need to format it
- tried with flashing from the recovery: I had signature error.
- tried to flash the lastest TWRP recovery for the Padfone 2: disaster
Now I'm stuck at boot, with Asus Logo and Invalid Kernel message. Can't boot recovery or the stock rom.
I can't flash the recovery with fastboot flash or adb sideload, I have a signature error.
Cannot even flash an unlocked boot.img, same problem. If I try to use "fastboot boot boot.img" it works, but after 30 seconds it automatically reboot before Windows (7, 64bit) install the MTP USB drivers.
I can't do anything, I recently resurrect the Padfone and the tablet and I already killed it.
Help please

Hi, yes I do, but honestly I don't remember.
I saved all the necessary so I think I should recall the procedure if I open that RAR file.
Now I have a BlackView BV7000Pro destroyed, worst than the Padfone (but still it turns on, it reboot immediately after the logo).
I'm a killer

Ok I didn't save anything. I remember something like flashing the original bootloader and recovery of the Padfone or something like that, using adb and fastboot.
Then I flashed a custom recovery and then the ROM.
I remember that it was more easy once done than reading the procedure. I deep searched on Google many different phrases about it.
Sorry I can't help anymore, I couldn't find anything (notes, files, etc).
Im trying to install TWRP without sucess.. but why?
using: fastboot oem device-info
the device status is:
bootloader tampered: false
bootloader unlocked: true
bootloader authorized: false
i did through fastboot mode:
fastboot erase cash
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
and then:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.1.0-A68.img
that looks like right install, but at end, do not work. Always back to screen recovery options to select, recovery or exit to the system. But, when choosing recovery, the device just turn off .
At the first time i'd had install custom recovery CWM and use Tari's rom. That's nice but, have some problems with consuming battery and instability.
I want to install new rom's
---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------
Rom Android Oreo for Asus Padfone 2
i'd found out in that website install new rom's like as Oreo.
But I'm in difficult to install TWRP here.
https://android8root.pro/como-fazer-root-asus-padfone-2/
Rom's for:
5.0 Lollipop
6.0 Marshmallow
7,0 – 7.1 Nougat
8.0 Oreo
Android P
CWM does not work because do not accept to flash the file of system over 1Gb
The Padfone is really one of the most useful mobiles phones i have pleaser to own. But unfortunately, old rom's are a source of difficulties to work with app's of today.
