I just rooted my TF101 yesterday using Vipermod and I wanted to install a custom ROM on it today. I backed up my current settings using the backup on CWM and placed the revolver.zip file in my external SD card.I wiped my data to factory settings. However, when I boot into CWM and go to install zip file from SD card, the file is not there. It appears that the CWM was reading the data file on my internal SD card. So I tried putting the revolver.zip file on the external SD card but when I went to install it from there it gives me an error saying installation aborted. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for the help.
What version of CWM are you using?
Roach's version 3.2.0.1 will read from the external sd card
Roach's version 5.5.0.4 will read from the internal sd only
Team Rouge recovery will read from internal or external sd
I am currently running 5.5.0.4 so I guess it should only be reading from the internal card then.
And just to clarify, am I supposed to place the .zip file onto the SD card because when I do so it will not run, and I get an error message saying that the installation has been aborted followed by a dead android. Am I supposed to unzip the file and then place in into the SD card? Or is there another reason why I am getting this error?

Yes put the zip file on the internal sd card.
Boot into recovery and choose "install zip from sd card" (exact wordings might be different).
If it's not flashing I would check MD5SUM of your download file.
This is going to sound completely noobish, but how would I go about doing that?

You can go into the Google Play (Market) and search "md5sum" there's a lot of apps to do it.
Personally I use this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwyLDEsIm5ldC5kcm9pZGNvcmUubWFuZDUiXQ..
When you download a ROM or other files, the dev usually list
an md5sum, make sure the md5sum of the file you download match what is listed.
When a download is corrupted the md5sum (md5 hash) will not match up.
I just downloaded rogue CWM and then flashed that with CWM. Then I was able to access the external SD card and I am now currently installing the ROM.
Thank you very much for the help, thanks given.
yes,
it is important to take the correct version of cwm : 3.2.0.1 by Roach2010 !

Try sideloading from adb via PC

Hi, yes you're right, more details:
I'm on TWRP 2.6.3.1
Zip files was on micro SD card formatted in NTFS.
And what I tried with no success is to find teh file on sd card location.
So I test FAT? On SD Card?

That TWRP version is very old... but should be good enough for wiping.
How did you try to find the file "on sd card location"? Using "Select storage?" Or did you mount using the mount page? In which directory did you look? external_sd or whatever it's called?

In TWRP I choosed "Install" option and look for .zip files I copied. I looked in folder SDCARD and EXTERNAL_SDCARD located at root and I found nothing.
I didn't use the "mount" option.

Which folder did you put them into on the card?
My guess is that they are in that folder
Which rom.zip files btw?
Well... I try to developp a little bit more to get some help.
I installed in my micro SD formatted in EX FAT format and in the SD card formatted in FAT32 format the two zip files dowloaded here:
Download CM11.0
Download GAPPS
They are installed at the root of both cards, there is no other files or folder in it.
I start in TWRP and then click install icon and look for these files everywhere and found nothing.
When I cick to mount icon, I cannot mount the micro SD or the SD cards.
Could you help me?
Is it possible to install another version of TWRP if the system does'nt start anymore?

when you enter twrp you should press on install, then there is a tab that says choose storage press on that and choose sd card, then carry on as you have been doing. twrp doesn't automatically show things on your micro sd card
