We will need quite a bit more information to be able to help.
What rom are your running?
What recovery?
What bootloader?
What did you do when this happened?
Did you use "Wipe Data" from the bootloader menu?
When the tablet is booted to recovery, do you have ADB access?

I guess you are using a translator for these posts?
Could you please try to seperate sentences?
It is very hard to read and understand what you are trying to say.
We need your bootloader version number. For example: 10.6.1.14.10 would be the latest. What do you have installed?
We also need the recovery version number. For example: TWRP 2.6.1 would be one possibility.
It sounds as if you installed an incompatible recovery and then used "Wipe Data" from the bootloader which is not a good idea.....
You are in a "forced reboot to recovery loop".
You do not need access to the bootloader for ADB to work in recovery. Try searching web pages in your language to get ADB drivers installed on your PC.

Actually reading your post again it sounds as if you are on stock firmware.
Did you install a custom recovery?
If not, reboot the tablet. It will start the recovery.
Connect the tablet to a power source and leave it like that overnight.
It could be that the recovery is still trying to finish the "Wipe Data" command and you keep interrupting it.
Leave it alone for 6 hours.

Ok, I got the first part and your bootloader/recovery combination is fine.
Could you try different words to explain what you meant by this:

I don't understand. What do you mean by "blinking recovery and then fail the recovery"??
Do you see an Android falling on his back with an open belly and exclamation mark?
That wold be the stock recovery, but you said you had TWRP 2.7 installed????

Yes, I think you have a forced reboot to recovery issue.
It's not clear from that video at which point you let go of the buttons, but I think you don't press them long enough.
We have to see if you can get into fastboot.
Keep holding Power and Volume Down past the first Asus screen and until you see a screen with 3 icons: RCK, Android and Wipe Data.
Confirm if you can get to that screen.

Connect your tablet via original USB cable to your PC.
Open Device Manager if you are on Windows.
Boot the tablet and let it loop on the TWRP logo.
Does it get recognized in Device Manager in any way? Any change in the list of connected devices?
If not, I'm afraid this is a brick.
Sorry

Don't understand your last sentence.
But if you have adb, open a command prompt from the folder where you're adb.exe is and issue this command:
Code:
adb devices
If that returns a string of numbers and letters, you have an adb connection to the tablet.
If it returns nothing you'll have to get the correct drivers.
But try this first and we'll see...

Removed all my Dropbox links because they disabled my account due to too much traffic, if you guys want them back please consider donating a buck or two for a Mediafire Pro account...I didn't develop this, just getting the word out that's it's officially available for the Nexus 7. You can either install the "normal" version or touch version from ROM Manager
UPDATE 11/16 new version posted by Koush 6.0.1.9
CWM Regular
CWM Touch
Here is the CWM ZIP by osm0sis:
Touch 6.0.1.9
Regualr 6.0.1.9
You NEED an unlocked bootloader in order to flash this check this thread on how-to unlock/root etc Nexus 7 Toolkit
If you just want to apply an OTA update and you haven't got it, you can do so by booting into CWM without installing it or having root.
first download and save OTA files from OTA 4.1.1 files and save to your /sdcard
then use
./adb reboot bootloader
./fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.9-grouper.img
select install zip from sdcard
toggle signature verification and make sure it's disabled
select the file you downloaded earlier and install
reboot and you will be updated
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you want to have CWM permantly installed, first make sure you have root...use Root Explorer or any other file manager with root access and go to /system and delete recovery-from-boot.p
now use
./adb reboot bootloader
./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.9-grouper.img
./adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You now have CWM installed.
I'm not responsible if you brick your tablet, it blows up mid flash etc
Make sure you know how to use ADB and have the SDK installed, you need that in order to do all of the above steps
Also make sure you have the recovery files saved to /sdk/platform-tools and also fastboot.exe has to be there also
Any commands that start with ./ are for linux/osx...just remove those when using windows

If you already have CWM or another recovery installed and would like to replace it with 6.0.0.6 Touch, I have packaged this file as a flash able zip file.
Download the zip file from http://db.tt/t13uCIRV and flash in recovery. To test, go to advanced -> reboot recovery and CWM Touch 6.0.0.6 should load up.
** edit 7/21/12**
Here's the zip file for the new touch recovery 6.0.1.0 http://db.tt/pLDeKXEf

It works as long as you're connected to a computer, so you can access recovery from bootloader you just need to be hooked to a computer.
I know right,,,almost seems like it is not doing it right but I have went back to a previous backup and it flashed fine!

If you know how to use ADB you can always fastboot a recovery.img,,,,this thing is almost impossible to truly brick. IN order to get into fastboot just connect to your computer and run adb with these commands
adb reboot bootloader
once in fastboot mode write this
fastboot devices
that will tell you if your device is connected and reading in fastboot mode if it is you will see something like fastboot and some numbers next to it. If nothing you do not have the fastboot drivers installed.
then to fastboot flash a recovery.img write this
fastboot flash recovery r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img (or whatever recovery.img you are using or have in your tools folder of you SDK location).
and in order to get right into CWM if you cant boot write this
fastboot boot r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img
hope that helps

Did you install the ota after you rooted and installed the recovery? I soft bricked too and I think that was the reason why. Something about the ota overwrote the recovery partition. Best thing to do is download ROM manager and click the first option to flash cwm. Then click the next button to boot into recovery. Then just flash the zip I posted to upgrade to touch.
**edit** just tried to boot into recovery from the boot loader and got stuck at the Google screen too. Holding all three buttons rebooted and started up as normal. Maybe the boot loader boot into recovery is pointing to a different partition for some reason?
Booting into recovery from ROM manager works though. That's how I've been getting in.

What did you try?
Can you adb boot into recovery from the bootloader?
Oh and you can't 'adb reboot' in fastboot just hit the power button.
yes and can do this while in fastboot (bootloader mode)
fastboot boot r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img (or whatever the name of your recovery.img is)

Which is correct. You won't be able to do adb commands in the bootloader. The command he asked you to try was a fastboot command, which should work

Let's talk about ubuntu a minute since fastboot worked before. It appears no one else has said fastboot worked earlier.
Are you running ubuntu on a different computer?
Same computer through virtualbox or something similar?
Same computer different drive or partition?
Try " adb devices " before you reply and include that info as well.
I should have also asked if fastboot previously worked on ubuntu?

---------- Post added at 11:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------
ok i solved the problem just now...
1-reboot the tablet in bootloader while connected to usb
2-use vol down to navigate to the usb mode and then vol up
3-the tablet won't show nothing but actually it is connected
4-proceed to any fastboot command
hope this helps
I had this issue when I first started flashing stuff (although I was flashing CWM not TWRP)
In my experience, if you don't see anything listed in fastboot devices, it doesn't matter because it still flashes.
Just try using the flash command (fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash blah blah blah.blah) and see if it works.
You -should- be able to see your device in "adb devices", and that's really what matters.
Also, what matt95 said is exactly what I do. Whether it shows anything or not, I just flash my stuff. Works fine, but I also don't use fastboot alot because with the new changes to the bootloader, one can flash stock through CWM now without having to fastboot flash it.
I'm having the same problem here with fast boot. I want to run NV Flash so I can update to the JB bootloader for CM updates. I've tried simple commands like reboot and nothing works. Any other thoughts?

I'm in the same wagon as all you guys, I just tried that and I can't get into fastboot still. Still waiting for device
---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------
I'm sorted now, I didn't realise that we needed a different command
I was using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-jb-touch.img
instead of the correct method of using
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery-jb-touch.img
This worked perfectly
it's same as this:
== Part 3 - Install recovery and rooting ==
Let's start with installing the recovery
1) Download these 2 files:
- Jellybean recovery with fastboot files: Fastboot files + JB recovery
- Root files => Root files
- You can also download the new CWM Touch recovery if you don't like TWRP: CWM Touch recovery thread or TWRP recovery and download this file : openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob
2) Extract the recovery with fastboot files zip and open a command prompt in the same folder of the adb and fastboot files (Shift + Right mouse)
3) Reboot into the bootloader of your tablet, type: adb reboot bootloader
4) When your tablet has reached the bootloader navigate with volume down to the usb icon and press volume up to confirm.
5) To flash the recovery type:
- TWRP: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob
- CWM: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery CWM-Touch.blob
6) A blue bar will appear and the recovery will be installed, when the blue bar is filled press volume up + power button to reboot into the tablet.
Now we will root the tablet
7) Copy Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed to the internal storage of your tablet. then reboot into the bootloader again.
8) This time you need to select the RCK icon with volume up to enter the recovery image.
9) In recovery flash Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed and reboot into the system
10) Install Supersu from Google Play
11) Open up Supersu, it will ask you to update the binary, choose yes.
12) Now your tablet should be rooted

I am trying to flash a custom recovery with fastboot but it is not working. When i put the device in fastboot mode it says"Starting Fastboot USB download protocol" but the screen doesn't change. When I flash it in CMD it says it finished but the device still does nothing. Then the same when I try to reboot it via flashboot. It says it is done but the device does nothing and I still have no custom recovery.

If fastboot is not working you need to look at 2 things: 1)Android SDK is not installed or 2)driver is not installed correctly. BTW, is your device rooted and unlocked and what version of firmware?
Edit: Also make sure usb debugging is checked in settings.

I second what buhohitr says...an unlocked tab is imperative to the process.
My device is unlocked but not rooted( I am trying to root it right now). I think it might be the SDK. I'm not sure if I installed it so I will do that now. Thanks

Are you saying it says finished on the cmd prompt? Then it is done :cyclops:
I think you are missing the point.
It won't immediately take you into recovery.
You need to send the reboot command, then power off, power on again with vol down held down until the 4 icons appear, then volume up on RCK which should be default and now you should be in a custom recovery

OK, so everything is clear, you're unlocked. Now back to my previous post:
1. SDK installation (check step 1 (jre java, you probably already have this...everyone does and step 3: SDK)

2. USB driver:

Make sure your usb debugging and unknow sources are both checked in settings. (if they are not, please try first before proceed to step 1).

The tablet is already in fastboot when you see RCK and the other options. If youlook above the options, you'll see 'starting fastboot usb download protocol' So you dont need to select the usb icon to enter fastboot.
Ok, thanks.... However one other thing I noticed there is also a message that says key driver not found booting Os. Is that important?

I read about it that it's not important. i also see that on my tablet too. i've flash my tablet more that 20 times without any problems. SO dont worry about it.

I have the same problem on my tablet; the point is:
if it is already in fastboot mode, how can i install clockworck mode recovery or install a new rom?
Beside, I've noticed that when i plug it into the pc, open a terminal (in ubuntu) and type "fastboot device", the pc does not recognize it and just displays on the terminal this message "<waiting for device>;
what does it mean??

You need to install the Naked Universal Drivers to use ADB and Fastboot. Look for the device in device manager as well.
I was given my friends tablet to try and fix for him. Basically the recovery (TWRP 2.5.0.0) cannot mount any partitions at all (and asks for a password for some reason - can be bypassed with the cancel button). The tablet will boot straight into the recovery mentioning that no OS is installed. I have attempted to boot into fastboot to flash an older version of the recovery (which I've read up on a few websites that say it will fix the mounting problem) however while pressing VOL DOWN and POWER it will boot up to the ASUS logo and no message appears about fastboot in the top-left. I'm out of ideas now and the only way I'll be able to fix this (from what I know) is either by flashing the ASUS firmware or an older version of TWRP via fastboot. Has anyone got any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks.

EDIT 2: I have finally solved the problem! I have quoted the important parts below in case anyone else has the same problem.
Basically I had some problems with the drivers the whole time on Windows 8. So what I did was disabled driver signature enforcement in Windows 8 (I think it re-enables after some time). I downloaded the drivers from this post and followed this other post , specifically this part:
jpasher said:
Making Windows recognize the TF300T
You will need to add the hardware IDs for the TF300T in the driver to make it recognize the ADB interface
Open the file android_winusb.inf in the naked drivers directory.
Look for the section titled [Google.NTx86] (for 32-bit systems) or [Google.NTamd64] (for 64-bit systems)
Add the following lines to make it recognize the TF300T hardware (it doesn't matter where, but I put it after the existing entries for the TF201 APX interface)
Code:
%AsusTransformerADBInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0B05&PID_4C81&REV_0232&MI_01
%AsusTransformerADBInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0B05&PID_4C81&MI_01
%AsusTransformerADBInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0B05&PID_4C83&REV_0232
%AsusTransformerADBInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0B05&PID_4C83
After the information is added, you should be able to install the drivers as usual for the device. If for some reason the device is still not recognized, you'll need to find its hardware IDs and add those to the file.

Then I booted up the tablet and connected to my computer. The drivers finally worked! I went into command prompt and typed "adb devices" and the device was there! Then I typed "adb reboot bootloader" and I got into the bootloader.
I had to look for the SKU too and since I couldn't find it cause I couldn't boot into Android it was in really small text in the bootloader at the top. Unfortunately after trying to flash the firmware in the bootloader it would not write over the system every time. So I followed this post instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49164067&postcount=167
After following the procedure it finally worked! Thanks cmendonc2 and everyone for your help, my friend is happy!

It doesn't say in TWRP recovery. When I boot the device straight up in the top-left corner it saw device is unlocked. However holding VOL DOWN does nothing and the tablet boots straight into TWRP

You can still use fastboot in TWRP, but you will need to find the bootloader in order to figure out which recovery to flash over TWRP. There should be a fastboot command to find out.

Okay that's good to know. I am still unfortunately not able to get into fastboot. So I'll have to figure out what version the bootloader is before flash the firmware over.
Okay I got access to APX mode (useless from my understanding since my friends has no backups via nvflash), the bootloader while the recovery is loaded (although the driver isn't working for the bootloader), but I CANNOT GET INTO THE BOOTLOADER VIA VOLUME DOWN + POWER. Please help, somebody!
Here's a video explaining my problem.

Have you tried pressing the reset pin, then going into TWRP and going into ADB mode.
Then type ADB reboot bootloader and then try getting into fastboot by pressing volume down.

Hmm I'll give that a go. Is ADB already on when I'm in TWRP? Otherwise how do I get into ADB mode?

I tried it out but I get the the message "ADB Sideload Complete" and below it a message in red" Failed". I have it plugged into the computer and I didn't hear a connection sound.
I have also looked in Device Manager and there is the Transformer with no driver loaded with it. Further searching using the device information gave me this link: http://binarydb.com/driver/ASUS-Android-Bootloader-Interface-208738.html
EDIT: Found a driver on softpedia and installed it: http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Ot...iver-4004-for-Vista-Windows-7-Windows-8.shtml Doesn't look like it's working though.

While the ADB is attempting to connect, reinstall the naked drivers. If you are on Windows 8, use test mode.

Hi cmendonc. I have already disabled driver signature enforcement. I have installed the drivers however I don't think I've had luck with them unfortunately.

Hmm. Try using a different USB cable ( if u have it) or a different USB port.

I tried out both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports on my computer but I still have the failed message come up. Any ideas still?

I vaguely remember someone posting that he succeeded to use adb/fastboot by installing a VirtualBox with Linux. You might have to search for the details.

Just an update. I got it working!! I did the following on this post to the universal drivers and then tried installing them on Windows 8. After booting my tablet to TWRP and plugging it in to my computer ADB works! I can reboot into fastboot now. Now I either have the option of flashing a JB compatible recovery or flashing the Asus firmware...
Since I'm not able to boot into Android would anyone be able to tell me what is the SKU on the picture below? So I can flash the correct firmware.
EDIT: Found it in the bootloader in small text. -.- It was the "WW" version.
