So looks like I deleted my android files...................... yes kill me!!!
How it stands:
Im not able to load into Android. The tablet is Unlocked and able to only boot to twrp.
2 out 10 times im able to push a file trought. The other times I get a protocol failure.
I can adb push files but at this point I dont know what files to push. What rom or what do I need to push to get it back?
I also think I lost root since I got a msg from twrp that if I wanted to install something to get root back.....

Use fastboot to install you stock ROM again. Dont use adb push, you can install it from your computer. Then install the correct TWRP for your bootloader and get back to your favorite custom Rom
how do I use fastboot? Is there a guide to use fastboot? Im searching lol Where can I get the stock rom?
Can I use a stock rom with twrp recovery?
Also for stock rom, its says to use the right rom with my SKU version. But I cant boot to find the sku....

When you restart you device and go to the recovery menu, and the top left corner where it says the device is unlocked, there will be the bootloader version. You need that to install the correct TWRP and stock ROM for your device.
When you get that stock ROM, take the stock ROM, extract the *.blob file. Copy that to your fastboot folder.
Restart your tablet and go to fastboot.
Now in CMD, type:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob.blob
It will take about ~300 seconds if you did it right.
You can find the stock ROMs in the index thread in developer forum.

hey guys im need of your help my sensation was essentially fine then i decided i wanted to root and find another rom just for better performance so i found and followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 well some down the line idk what happended but now i cant transfer big files to the phone when in recovery mode and when i try to install a new rom the whole phone will reboot i've tried everything from adb push to flashing new firmware to the phone now im stuck and out of ideas can anybody help me the phone isnt bricked cause it can still boot into recovery and i can use fast boot mode as well i dont have any rom loaded on the phone and i didnt make any back ups (yea i know very dumb of me)
What do you mean transfer big files when in recovery mode? You can only transfer files when the phone is operating normally. Are you s off?
im pretty sure i am cause i used Revolutionary to root it
Since you can access recovery:
1. Download a rom suitable for the firmware you flashed.
2. Download super wipe script from ARHD thread.
3. Place both on a freshly formatted SD card using a PC
4. Insert SD to phone and install super wipe followed by rom.

Take out sd card and use a card reader to load a rom. Which firmware did you flash? Through bootloader? If you flashed the ics firmware bundle, which one?

Since problem happened after you tried to s-off and you can't flash rom by recovery, i'm pretty sure that your phone is still s-on. You can try the method as following
1. Reboot into the bootloader and check whether phone is s-on. If it's not, or rather, it's s-off, congratulation to you because it's very easy now. You just need to install a third party recovery( i never try to flash a rom by stock recovery, but i recommend to use third party recovery to flash roms) and flash any rom you want except those which need firmware. If it's still s-on, what you need to do is login htcdev and unlock the bootloader
2.Download a rom which doesn't need firmware( Because i don't know how to cope with ICS stuff and i just know something about gingerbread rom. if you want to try ICS, then ignore my reply). Download a third party recovery. Extract the boot.img inside the rom to adb folder, and so do recovery.img.
3.Connect the phone to the computer, open command line and cd into adb folder, and go to fastboot mode. Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" to install third party recovery. Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" to flash boot.img
4.Reboot into recovery mode. Double wipe the phone, or you can try superwipe provided by mike1986. Then install the rom you download. After installation, reboot the phone. Now your phone should be ok.
PS: adb command usually works when your phone has booted into system. Although type adb command in recovery mode and get some response from the phone, actually it doesn't make any sense.
All in all, all you need to do is :unlock the bootloader by htcdev, flash recovery and boot, wipe and flash the rom, then ok

That's great! Keep the ruu you used safe in case of more problems. Now, run revo again, install su & recovery and you are done.
But backup stock in recovery before anything

Download supersu.zip onto phones internal storage.
Fastboot flash or boot custom recovery.
Flash supersu.zip from recovery
Stock rooted.
Easiest way. Best way. Never fails way. The same way the phone was rooted in the first place.....
can't get Shabby's way to work. just searches for devices & on my phone it stays at the bootloader screen. how can I flash something if i'm unable to use ROM manager?

Follow the instructions below to install CWM on your phone and then you can flash super user binaries to get root access.
If you have lost recovery then install pdanet on your computer.(It will also install Nexus S USB Drivers) then put your phone into fastboot mode by holding down both Volume Up and Power buttons together. When you are in fastboot mode connect your phone to your PC using USB cable.Download ADB and recovery you want to flash put it in your C:/recovery (Put adb and recovery image in this folder)
Then open cmd and type
1)CD C:/recovery
2)fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img (replace recoveryname with actual file name of the recovery image).
You can download recovery from here
Or you can avoid all this and just use this

how to root nexus s ? from jb ? more infos ?
To root ANY nexus the process is the same. All that differs is the files used.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Get the proper su zip on the devices storage. Either boot up and put it there or do it by mounting storage in step 3
3. Boot or flash custom recovery and flash your su.zip.
That's it. If you're already unlocked skip step one. Make sure you got the su.zip on your phone. Use fastboot to flash or boot recovery and boot into it. Flash the zip.
ive tried everything in this post, but i cant unlock or root. Im assuming the drivers are my problem because in Device Manager I can only install ACER ADB or Android Adb Interface.
In shabby's one-click, I get to the step where it says something like "select the unlock option on my phone", but in fastboot i only get 4 options and neither say "unlock"

Its old but still works. Go into fast boot and type in cmd fastboot oem unlock, its not an option in fadtboot. Don't use one clicks, learn the original way. You will be much better off in the future.

Hi,
Following on from this thread I'm trying to get back to stock rom.
Each time I attempt to flash from (stock) recovery I get
check.partition.size=[__PROP_UNDEFINED__]
Installation aborted
I've tried CUS1 and GEN1 roms from Acer site both with and without the 1st line of the script commented out.
Any ideas?

OK, is there another way I can approach this as I need to get back before sending the tablet off to be fixed.
1) Can I push the ROM somehow using adb? If so, how?
2) What about installing CWM to flash the ROM and restore custom recovery? This would be my last resort as if it didn't work I'm stuck with root files & CWM!
Any help gratefully received as I need to send it back this week.
First off, I have some questions:
1. Are you unlocked?
2. Are you root? (Doesnt really matter)
3. Android 4.0 or 4.1?
4. At which point is that error showing up?
5. What about the stock beta ROMs?
6. Did you rename the ROM to update.zip and to what place did you copy it ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34015330&postcount=108
Somebody had the same problem. Im not sure about the solution though.
You can boot into a different recovery (since the message youre gettin' is from the stock recovery).
Search the forum for cwm. Then use fastboot boot recovery-nameoffile.img
It requires an unlocked bootloader.
1: You can, if you are able to boot into Android. If you can't, adb will not work.
To push a file to your tablet, use the following commands:
adb push update.zip /sdcard
Update.zip being the stock ROM, obviously.
2: Yes. That could work. Try to install CWM and you should be able to flash a stock ROM from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729692
However, you should be able to flash that ROM already. Remember you have to unlock your device. You can, however lock it again by installing a stock ROM; but I heard it will unlock itself after an OTA or flashing another stock ROM or something like that.

4. At which point is that error showing up? After Finding/opening/verifying package
5. What about the stock beta ROMs? No, just the 2 official ones on the Acer site
6. Did you rename the ROM to update.zip and to what place did you copy it ? The downloaded files from ACER are a zip file with a pdf and update.zip inside. I copied update.zip to my SD card. Am I supposed to extract a particular file from it and create an archive out of that that or use the entire thing as I did?

Hi I have question. If my phone USB can't working with PC anymore because the terminal cut out and my Gionee e3 phone stuck on boot logo or bootloop, how can I get it back to normal? Is there a flashable zip files can solve it? If there was please help me. Thanks.
Hey cryingbee,
Can't you get to the recoverymode by pressing volume down and the power button? If not, try booting into fastboot, which I think is volume up + the power button. If those combinations won't work, google for your phone name + fastboot mode. If you can reach fastboot, you can boot into a recovery by using fastboot commands or install new roms etc.
I was able to install TWRP and unlocc bootloader and root. I tried installing PAC-man_23.0.0 wiped and now the tablet will not boot passed the splash screen. I can still get to recovery with no problems. I can't access any sdcards in recovery to try to flash any other roms.

We need more details
What firmware were you on before you tried pacman?(it requires 4.1) if it was me id adb push the latest stock firmware from Asus (the package has a .zip inside a .zip so extract it once and use the second .zip)
There are plenty of guides for using adb push, google it
Make sure you have the right version of twrp for your bootloader, if not replace it with fastboot.

That's proably what I did was get the wrong version some how. was able to flash another recovery now that I have access to sdcard I was able to reload another softare so atleast I'm good now.
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.
