I can't flash the image file. It fails for some reasons.
I'm getting an error message("fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command") in cmd when I open flash-all.bat file.
phone is rooted, with open bootloader. I had AOKP custom rom before i tried to flash 5.0.
Any Ideas what to do?

It means you've not copied the files into your ADB folder as it can't find the fastboot files

open the folder where you extracted the tarbal
hold down shift and right click
open command prompt here
do a "fastboot devices" to check if your device is connected
continue flashing using the commands.

"Into your FASTBOOT folder". adb's got nothing to do with this.

worked for me i never had to put anything into my android tools folder, i have system wide access no matter where i open up the command prompt.
Easiest way is to extract the sh1t out of the Google file until you eventually see all the img files. Then extract the fastboot zip into the same folder they're in and open a command prompt there.

People refer to the folder with ADB and fastboot in it as the ADB folder (If you had adb/fastboot in the system path this wouldn't even be required)

I am new to the ASUS family of tablets, and j just can't figure out how to root. I have rooted many tablets and installed custom roms before but the i cannot follow the how tos listed here. For one fastboot doesnt work on my computer. It opens and closes immediately. What i would like is a detailed step by step guide with a trouble shooting guide. I mean now i reading about downgrading, blob files and a few other things i never dealt with on my galaxy. Someone help......would love to root this thing. Email me if u want [email protected]
You need to run fastboot from the DOS Prompt
start run - cmd
then type fastboot command.
I take it you have unlocked your bootloader?
Check this thread, it has videos about rooting and whatnot, hope it helps:

Yes, Bootloader is unlocked. Ok, so I tried the flashboot command, so now what? I typed the command from the walkthru "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.img " but get an errorcannot load recovery.img. So what am I missing. I have the recovery image on my desktop.....
Put the recovery image in the same folder as your fastboot application and it should work.

....what fastboot folder? I installed the ADK per the instructions, I downloaded the root and recovery image. I looked in the system for a fastboot folder and do not see it. Plus when I try to type in the fastboot command now, it says it is not a recognized command. I am sure this is something simple, but I am just not getting it. Is there a more detailed step by step somewhere that will actually walk you thru the steps without assuming you know what they are talking about? I can root my phone, my galaxy tab all day long and install and change ROMS, but this one has me upside down.
When you installed android SDK and ran SDK manager to install the tools, it should create a "platform tools" folder. In that folder you should see "fastboot.exe." Put the recovery image into the same platform tools folder.
Make sure when you run the command that you are in the command prompt, and that you have navigated to the same platform tools folder. It should then recognize the fastboot command and flash your recovery.

Found the folder and it did have the platform tools in it but Apparently I have forgotten how to navigate in CMD, so I moved the folder to the current location CMD was at. I typed in the command fromt the walkthrough and I get "adbwinapi.dll" is not installed. Not sure if this is progress or not.....so now what.
That file should be in your platform tools folder as well. I think it's a driver issue. Is your tablet showing up in device manager? Does it have a yellow triangle? I'm not really an expert unfortunately, hopefully someone with more knowledge can jump in.

You should not move the folder. This can cause all kinds of problems. in the cmd prompt just type
cd \folder\folder\etc.
The cd means change directory and you start off with a backslash to set the initial path to the root of your drive. if folder names include spaces then wrap the path with quotes, cd "\folder one\folder two\etc". the prompt should change from C:\windows or whatever to what you typed in.
if you've installed on a drive other than C: then first change to that drive by typing the drive letter followed by a colon, ie D:

go into the directory where your adb is and run "adb devices" from command prompt and let's see if your device is recognized, if it isn't it might be your drivers or try a different usb port.

I went to fastboot, tried to unroot back to stock and now my phone is stuck on boot loop. I can still boot into twrp but now my backup is missing and its not recognizing the sd. Can anyone help?

You need to have adb and fastboot .exe's in the same directory as the factory images(assuming you're using Windows). Here's a link to a guide. You're definitely not bricked, just some problems with TWRP right now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701

You need to open a command prompt in the same directory as the fastboot executable. There are a million tutorials on exactly how to set up your adb/fastboot properly. Even Google provides the instructions on the same page you download the factory images. It isn't hard to do so

try making a simple folder . Move all the files from this directory to C:\nexus5\ .
open a command prompt and type this:
Code:
pushd c:\nexus5
then type
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
what is the results
open command prompt from start menu. on mine, it starts me at
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\Users\Austin
Use the command "cd.." to back up until you're at C:\
From there, type
Code:
cd image-hammerhead-krt16m
You should be at that directory now. and it'll say
Code:
C:\image-hammerhead-krt16m
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
(Note: this command will wipe your device (including /sdcard), EVEN if your bootloader is already unlocked.)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
without having to try and navigate to them every time. This worked for me. If you have adb drivers installed correctly and the "adb version" and "fastboot devices" command both work, you're good.
EDIT : Just as a heads up, the last command "fastboot erase cache" messed up something on mine. It wouldn't hold APNs or connect to any network, so I had to run fastboot flash cache cache.img

I have the Cyanogenmod 11 ROM on my computer. I open cmd, and i do the "adb push" command, with the file name of the ROM, but it never works. Solutions?

It means that the directory you're entering doesn't exist.. You're goofing up while typing in the command prompt! What I don't understand is, how were you able to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery if you aren't able to execute simple adb commands? Unlocking the bootloader uses fastboot but the navigation to the directory is the same.
My suggestion would be to delete the android sdk from that path and install it in an easy path like : "E:/sdk/platform-tools"... So that it would be easier for you...
Well, if you still can't set it up properly, then use an OTG cable to flash the rom via a flash drive...
@vin4yak Go through this thread to know where he went wrong.

Hi All, I hope someone can help.
I got this phone in December, and unlocked it, flashed TWRP and rooted.
My phone automaticly updated and was on version 7.1.2. But Super SU wasnt working anymore.
I tried to boot into TWRP but it was saying somthing like "No command given" when I tried.
I used Skipsoft toolkit to flash the recovery again (What I originally used) and when the phone rebooted, it gets to the Google logo and instantly reboots.
I can get to bootloader, but if I select recovery, it reboots.
Is there anything I can do here?
I did a backup in TWRP before I flashed, its stored on the phone.
Thanks in advance
I would use the tool to go back to stock. Just pick the last Google is the app I believe its V. Either update to the lastest software or I just flashed a rom with the newest vender
Hi, Thanks for your reply.
How can I do this though, I cant get the phone to boot, or into recovery
Is there a way I can use adb to push a TMRP so I can restore my backup?
My PC makes the noise as if something is attached by USB, but when I do adb devices, nothing shows.
Hi all,
I managed to sort it out and restore to original as advised above with fastboot. Never used it before, but I followed this guide and it worked great.

You can get TWRP and root on the May update.

This didn't work for me. I got as far as:
7. Now type the following command in the command window and hit the Enter key.
flash-all.bat
When doing that, I got the following returned in the CMD prompt:
'flash-all.bat' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
In the CMD prompt, make sure you're in the folder where you extracted the contents of the zip file.

As X04D states you need to be in the correct directory. Hold shift and richt click in the folder where the files are located and press "Open command prompt here" then try again.

I probably should have clarified, but by quoting step 7 as the point it failed, I meant to imply that I had performed steps 1-6. Step 6 is the "open command prompt here" step.

That error means flash-all.bat is not in the same directory as the command prompt you opened. You unzipped it elsewhere, didn't unzip it or you opened the command prompt in the wrong place.
Flash this file after flash other files
