well try to superwipe and install again..happend to me to and it fixed it..oh and for the future use CWM with CM

Sounds like the standard recovery issue but yours should be new enough. As mentioned, do a full wipe, if that doesn't work do another and try flashing using cwm. I haven't had a single issue with 10.2 yet, good luck!

I think twrp 2.6.1.0 has worked for some people or use cwm(philz I think) and flash from there. After that switch back to twrp 2.6.3.0.

TWRP higher 2.4.4.0 giving weird screen

Greetings. Today I wanted to try a KitKat rom on my TF300T (currently on PacMan Rom 4.3), but as I've figured out, I needed a new version of recovery, since I was using TWRP 2.4.4.0.
So I flashed it (version for 4.2 Bootloader, of course), but even though I've tried nearly all versions higher than 2.4.4.0 (for ex. 2.5.0.0 or 2.6.1.0), I was still getting this weird screen (not my picture, but the same problem) and the only way, how to solve it, is to go back on my default TWRP version - 2.4.4.0.
Any help is much appreciated!

Which stock rom were you on, 10.x.x.x.x.x?

Hello and thanks for quick reply! My stock rom was 10.6.1.8.
Anyway, some really weird thing happened - I downloaded TWRP 2.6.1.0 (again, version 4.2BL), flashed it, went to recovery but whoa - It installed CWM 6.0.4.5...? How is that even possible? And yes, the blob was downloaded from the official TWRP site.
Anyway, with this new "TWRP" (aka. CWM ) I was able to install this KitKat rom, but still I would like to know the solution for the TWRP problem.
But still, truth is, that my stock rom is very old, going to update it then - Thanks!
EDIT: Ah, now I see it, my bad Just found this:
If current bootloader = 10.6.1.8 - JB 4.2 - recovery to flash = ONLY TWRP "openrecovery-twrp-2.4.4.0-tf300t-4.2.blob" - flashing a non-4.2 version of TWRP or any version of CWM will brick device. Also flashing 2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2 on the 10.6.1.8 bootloader results in a split-screen issue.

Yes, update to 10.6.1.27 to use the TWRP.

Stuck on boot animation.

Wondering if anybody else is having this problem? If I install a custom rom like cm11 unofficial I just get stuck on the boot animation. It happens on any custom rom I installed and I followed all instructions. Any ideas? Running 1034 16gb on kit kat.

Make sure your bootloader is unlocked and your device is rooted. In addition your recovery must be installed correctly.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563599 Flash CWM in fastboot
Push ROM files to your /sdcard/
Install using your recovery xxx.zip
Instruction are there just follow them right.

I had this problem yesterday. Here is how I fixed it:
Install stock firmware. I installed a 4.4 one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Then rooted using superboot
Finally, I installed TWRP
It took like three tries to get superboot and twrp to work properly. That's how I fixed it. Goodluck

Had the same problem with a xt1032 retail.DE version, but didn't work.
I flashed the US umts4.4.2 version, was able to install root using superboot (at 2nd of 3rd try) and installed TWRP. Tried to Cm11 and gapps installed good, but still got stuck on bootanimation.
Losing faith here.

well this just happened on my phone again. the way I fixed it last time isn't working now I have no idea what to do

Why is no one helping with this issue. Ive experienced this a lot and I always have to restore it stock. I have never been able to install a custom ROM no matter how many times I root.

I have this issues also on 4.4 us global rom. Rooted and recovery cwm

There are two ways to get this fixed:
Fix permissions through TWPR recovery (not available on CWM recovery);
Restore to stock firmware (you can find 4.4.2 firmware here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49861244&postcount=101), flash CWM recovery (or TWRP) and flash CM11 again. This worked for me.
Let me know!

Can anyone confirm these methods? (at least the first one)
Done the 2nd multiple times, same result.

i have same problem , and don't know what to do ?
i flashed 3 different ROMs all stuck on bootanimation .

I'm curious. Did this happen the first time you flashed a rom? When I bought my Moto G (tesco version) it had 4.3 on it, I upgraded to 4.4 via OTA. Unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM for 4.4 kernel, made backup and flashed various CM builds, booted with no problems.
Now I restored to backup, because of the non-working GPS.
It stucks on CM (the flashed rom) boot screen or the bootloader warning screen?

After trying the second one 3 times, I used the TWRP/Fix Permissions method and successfully flashed CM11.

I got CM 11 to boot the first time on a dirty flash, but forgot to flash gapps, so got a load of FCs when it loaded up. Since then, any sort of flash, clean or dirty gives me a bootloop.
Even directly flashing boot.img via fastboot doesn't fix it. Reinstalling the stock firmware and starting from scratch doesn't do it either.

TWRP vs Philz CWM

I've been reading through tons of posts trying to figure out which recovery works best for flashing zips and/or installing OTA updates. I'd like to get a thread going so that it's more clear which recovery ROM is recommended and why. I've been using TWRP but find the touch to be spotty at BEST, also I got my phone into a bootloop after installing the 174.44.1 OTA update and it seemed like a lot of ppl that had no issues were using Philz CWM. So anyway, please post opinions!

I have the same query.

Have also been reading a lot about those recoveries.
I started with CWM because I had good experience with it on my Acer S120.
Recently (yesterday to be precisely) I changed to Philz CWM after I had to do a reflash of the whole system.
I decided for Philz because of the buggy touch functions from TWRP I read about.
So far I'm pleased with Philz CWM.

Can you link to where you obtained Philz CWM and which version are you using. I have just installed TWRP v2.6.3.0 and it seems fine (I couldn't find v2.6.3.2 which I think is the latest ver).

i had philz cwrm and when i did "restore default" for resetting settings original from menu settings, didn't work. it is a bug and for me, that want a phone complete working, this is important. most users use wipe from recovery but i want that function!!!
now i have v2.6.3.2 twrp and all is workind, even touch slide that before (until 2.6.3.0) was bugged.
same issue of philz recovery for my ex phone htc desire 500.... is philz that insert something error for restoring and even i asked many forum, noone know solution and many users don't know because don't try (or don't want try)

I use twrp with no issues at all (pretty sure the touch bug was fixed a while ago). But then I've also heard that Phil's cwm is brilliant, so I guess it's just down to personal preference?

I read somewhere that it was a typo. Mine says 2.6.3.0 after the install of 2.6.3.2. And yes its running fine, no bugs that I can see.

@slamor. OK, thanks yes its very responsive and seems to be perfect, the date is now correct too. Just that niggling v2.6.3.0 that shows up. I am reluctant to try Philz CWM only because I have several backups that I want to hang onto. Maybe Philz CWM uses the same backup/restore format? But right now it ain't broken, so no need to fix it!

I dont know about that. From past experience I could Never use CWM backups on TWRP and vice versa.
Think about it as ...working.

TWRP 2.8.7.0?

Has anyone one used the latest twrp recovery? I know know there have been issues with past versions.

Been working fine for me. I only use it for a little before flashing ktoonsez recovery. If you aren't having issues with your current one, really no need to change. I just always grab the latest when "starting over" from a full firmware flash.

I always grab the latest. So I snatched it up when 2.8.7 hit the floor. In fact this was my first time installing twrp with twrp. I have always used Odin but it's easy and it's been working great for me since the day it was released

I'm currently on NK5 4.4.4 and haven't updated it.. I know there's a current L update I can download, OTA, but I rather try some roms.. The thing is I'm not too sure about what recovery I can install. Is TWRP 2.8.7.0 gonna work with me or do I have to use SafeStrap? There's a bunch of options but not too clear on what will work with the current state my phone is in. I'm ready to root. Just need to know what custom recovery to flash..

Well I have used twrp recovery pretty religiously it has an good interface. Some find the Phil's CWM is good as will although I don't think that they is any more support for that, but there is one floating out there. I have never used SafeStrap. I believe that is used for lock bootloader which would be unnecessary for our Sprint phone which are unlocked.
