I had unlocked my TF700T and installed CM10, but it has never had the capability to reboot into recovery when enabled in the developer options -- selecting that when rebooting simply makes the ASUS logo come up several times, then it boots normal without going into recovery.
A related issue is when I download a CM10.1 update and tell it to upgrade, it reboots but doesn't install the new version from recovery.
I'm assuming something isn't unlocked or enabled somehow... but on the ASUS boot screen it does say "device is unlocked".

I assume you can still access the recovery per the button-press method?
Yes, that's the only way I can access it.

The button press method is the proper way to flash anything. If you unlock you BETTER know how to flash in recovery. Also, GooManager will not flash firmware on the TF700, you must do it manually from recovery, thus why the upgrade is failing.

Yes I certainly can and do flash all sorts of stuff from recovery -- first CM, now TWRP. But on my Epic 4G I just use CM Updater to download the latest ROM, then it asks me if I want to install, I say yes, and it reboots and installs it for me. But on my TF700T it isn't happening -- when I answer "yes" it just reboots without installing the new ROM.
Is it NORMAL with the TF700T to be unable to boot into recovery by using the power menu??
Is there something I don't have configured properly or didn't install something properly?

Yes (with the stock ROM).
Sorry, I should have been clear: I meant "with any version of CM?"
I use goo manager just to reboot into recovery, than flash manually. If I had to do the button boot recovery I wouldn't flash anything anymore.
Always sweaty hands when I see those three icons.

Interesting. Rebooting to recovery with Goo Manager doesn't work for me either -- it just flashes the ASUS logo several times and then boots normally.
Seems like my recovery isn't setup properly -- any suggestions on how I can fix it?

Sorry I can't help you fix it. But getting into recovery is as simple as typing this at the terminal if you have busybox installed or use the rebooter widget from ROM Toolbox or the market app. They all do the same thing.
Code:
reboot recovery
I selected recovery under power options but it only reboots the tablet. No reboot to recovery option. Is the only way to boot to recovery to hold buttons down and force reboot to recovery?

Have you tried using ROM Manager's reboot to recovery option?
I've only heard that I should avoid ROM manager. I'm actually shocked that boot to recovery is not an option in cm.10.2. I feel like I must be doing something wrong because how could it not be there??!!!!

If you don't want to use ROM Manager, then try using Quick Boot. Just search for it in the Play Store.
Do you have "Advanced Reboot" checked in developer options in Settings?

Hi, Im trying to install cm 11.0 on my tf 300t, im trying to install TWRP. The boot loader is unlocked and the device is rooted. I tried get into the fast boot menu but cant. I hit Power and vol down and get into a new screen with a row of 3 icons. I see the RCK and hover over the button for 5 sec... nothing happens. I waited for 5 min an nothing happened. I then tried to hit the volume up button but that fails and re boots me into the OS. Im running 4.2.1. Is there a Fix for this problem? Can I install TWRP another way? (maybe through ADB?) Thanks

The first time you install TWRP, it should be through ADB (fastboot). Flash it from your computer. After that, you will be able to flash ROMs from the recovery menu on the tablet.

AHAHHAHAHA IM SO STUPID xD. On android 4.2.1 you dont get a message, you can just send the file over through adb. Nothing happens if you hover over the screen. Thanks for the help.
Now I have another problem, both TWRP and CWM don't have access to any files. They still boot up, but they don't have the ability to install or find any files or create logs. Im getting the errors saying nothing can mount.

Did you flash the 4.2 TWRP file? CWM has no version that woks with the 4.2 bootloader, except for the one in the flatline.img for NVFlash. If you flashed the regular TWRP recovery by mistake, follow the instructions here to recover, and start all over again. Remember to choose the correct recovery.

Ok, so i'm assuming I need the openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-tf300t-4.2.blob file. I DO have access to fastboot, can I just flash over the other Twrp recovery installed? Or do I have to follow the steps at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12 ? Thanks.
So I ended up flashing the blob file, and it did work. But when I tried installing CM11 I got an error and it shut down. Now I had a boot screen of the ASUS logo, flashing on/off every 20 sec. BUT I did make a backup, and was able to restore the system from that. Can anyone tell me what I have to wipe/do to install CM 11 on the tf300t? Or even cm 10.2 if its easier.
some (maybe) useful info
- I can boot into fastboot
- I can boot into the OS
- I do have a backup in case anything goes wrong
- I have twrp 2.6.3

So anyway i'm new here,,,,i just buy my oneplus several days ago,after several days of usage i found that i have microphone issue with ok google,so i look for option and i found some help here (i cant post link,its from youtube)
But to do that i must root oneplus so i did it,i instal supersu and using twrp recovery,after the phone rooted,i check again using root checker and it work,after that i tried to do method from youtube to fix my microphone,
After i found the mixed-path.xml,i changed the value but i cant save it,so go out and change the permission,then go to that file again,strangely i can't find the syntax again,i open the same file but the syntax is not there anymore...so i go out to homescreen and then try to reboot.
The problem now is my phone won't boot up,it stuck on the logo that look like bolt spinning,,,,any idea what should i do now?
I'm confused when you say the bolt symbol. Is it the one of the CyanogenMod Inc logo?
Boot into twrp. Fully turn your phone off and then hold volume down + power, adb sideload and then flash one of the zips of your choice. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2835010
Be more careful next time. If this helped you, give it a thanks

Did you try ADB Sideload as I mentioned? Do you have ADB set up?
To elaborate what I said on earlier,
- you need to boot your phone into recovery
- factory wipe
- advanced in twrp -> sideload
- while you're at this, select the two options to wipe and then swipe.... then type,
Code:
adb sideload <name-of-zip>.zip
and then once you type that it'll be sent to the phone and then you can sideload flash. After that reboot and then your phone will start up again.
ADB Sideload: http://teamw.in/ADBSideload
@foxzeaker77, just to clarify, it isn't called a bolt symbol, it's boot, and more correctly, boot animation.

Hey Guys,
I want to flash twrp to my OnePlus One, but CyanogenOS12S won't let me without a hardware boot into recovery mode. My OnePlus' volume buttons do not work, thus i cannot do a hardware boot to recovery mode. When i boot into cyanogenOS and try a software reboot into recovery mode it defaults to Cyanogen's stock recovery. (And yes I have unchecked "update Cyanogen recovery" in developer options)
Is there any way for me to flash and access a custom recovery? I very much hope there is as I would like to have this phone rooted to perform nandroid backups and to attemot to fix the low mic volume issue when im not on speakerphone.
Appreciate any help!
Thanks,
Mrcalebw
easiest way is going to be fastboot flash a new recovery like twrp using fastboot. Just google. As of now you have stock cm recovery installed
Cannot leave the fastboot screen

Hey!
Thanks for the reply and help. I tried to do this, but once I
fastboot falsh recovery recovery.img' which is successful
then 'flashboot boot recovery.img' The fastboot screen lights up brighter and my oneplus disconnects from adb and my computer and i have to do a hard power off by holding the powerbutton.
And I'm back where i started without a custom recovery to boot into.

If your phone is rooted. I guess it would be. Then try this steps to reboot it to recovery
No need of pc.
1. Download TWRP manager from the play store
2. Open the app
3. Open menu in the app by touching the left top corner of the app.
4. Touch on the reboot option and then
5. Touch on the reboot to recovery and touch yes.

Hi,
Thanks for your help. The trouble is that i do not currently have root on my phone.
If its possible to get root, without having to boot into custom recovery that would be fantastic.
I'm beginning to feel like this might be a lost cause.
I'd love any suggestions though!

And how do i flash supersu zip from fastboot? Without having to temporarily boot into a custom recovery?
As far as I was aware you cant flash supersu unless you have a custom recovery installed, which i cannot install (original post issue)
If theres a command I'd be very grateful!

You can cannect your phone as adb right? Then try this tool.

It may help. It has the option boot to fastboot and boot to recovery.

I have tried a couple of toolboxes. The trick there is that adb commands only send once the phone has booted and is on debugging mode. When full boot happens, the cyanogen stock recovery overwrites the custom recovery.
