tablet only boots fastboot, what are my options? - Asus Transformer TF700

i tried updating from cromni-kk to zombipop. i wanted to try rom2sd so i formatted sd w/ aparted on my tablet then flashed the rom. aftter it flashed i rebooted. it initiated the boot process but when it tried to boot into os it rebooted and went to recovery (twrp). instead of twpr opening all i get there is the twrp splash screen and it keeps flashing. i can get into fastboot so are there any recovery options i can use from there?

If you want to try ROM2SD then you have to flash special TWRP. If you want to come back you have to flush normal TWRP. As you are able to fastboot, that should be no problem.

would you mind elaborating a bit?

i've managed to figure out how to get adb working on the pc, but beyond that i'm a little lost. could you point to to where i get my recovery file and where it goes when i run you rcommand?

nevermind, sorted. thanks for the help.

tablet only boots into twrp

My TF300T will only boot into TWRP. I also can't access any storage (failed to mount error) and adb sideloading fails everytime so I can't flash the stock rom. I tried using these commands:
adb shell mount -t tmpfs none /sdcard
adb push ROM.zip /sdcard
Which let me reach the .zip file it still failed to flash.
The tablet had Jellybean 4.2.2 installed. The TWRP version is 2.6.3.0.
How do I fix this?
Reboot it into bootloader menu. If holding volume down and power buttons doesn't work try 'adb reboot bootloader' command while tablet in twrp. Then flash rom through fastboot.

Now I can get to fastboot, but if I try to flash anything the cmd window says it worked but all it really does is freeze the tablet.

Did You flash rom or recovery? And does blue progressbar appears?

I was able to flash cwm recovery. So now instead of booting into twrm everytime I get stuck on the splash screen. That didn't really change anything
I tried fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash system boot.blob (the .blob file from the stock rom), and I got the blue progress bar then rebooted but I'm still stuck on the first splash screen.
You do it wrong. So if Your last working firmware was 4.2 You need download this rom from asus webpage. Then unzip it twice and You get blob file. Then flash it with 'fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash staging blob' command.

Thanks. That worked. However now I'm only back where I started. CWM give can't mount error and can't reach a zip file. ADB sideload doesn't work either(failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)'). I tried TWRP once and that's the reason I had to post hear in the first place.

Did You try only TWRP v2.6.3.0? I use v2.5.0.0 and its work fine. About CWM: flatline cwm for 4.2 bootloader was created with purpose do nvflash backup, so may be here is the cause of not working others functions.

CWM no command

Hey there guys. I have recently flashed CWM-touch-6.0.4.7-falcon.img im able to go into recovery when i flash it, on reboot i selected yes for the fix install stock recovery, when back to recovery and it has an android with an exclamation mark coming out of it with it saying 'no command' at the bottom. How do i fix this? Moto G 3G 1st gen
You can try:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
And then:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
After you flash the custom recovery boot into it right away and see if that works.

I did that and it was all success but same thing happened
Also i tried flashing stock recovery but still no luck
An Android with an exclamation with 'no command' means you are on the stock recovery. Did you try the latest TWRP?

Oh right ok. No i haven't used TWRP, i don't really like it. I tried CWM touch but i haven't tried normal CWM yet
You can also try philz recovery. Not sure why it won't stick after you flash but be sure go into recovery right after you finish flashing otherwise it will overwrite back to stock I believe.

I always go straight into recovery after i flash it but when i reboot it goes back to stock recovery :/
What message do you get after flashing the recovery? Previously I got 'partition size mismatch' indicating I flashed a recovery different from stock. Philz & TWRP worked fine for me.

I get a mismatch partition size (recovery) when i flash. I boot straight away to recovery, then say yes to disable flash stock recovery, reboot into recovery and stock recovery. I flashed the non touch CWM this time

Then sorry I'm not sure about the reason. May be you downloaded a wrong recovery or that recovery doesn't work with your bootloader. Just search the thread you downloaded this from to find any solution. Or if you don't like the TWRP try Philz touch as it is CWM based.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2639583 .
Currently the only supported recovery for moto g is TWRP by h2o64.

I have flashed CWM-touch and normal CWM before until flashify came along and made my recovery screwed up
I suggest you try using mfastboot included here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567719065
NOTE: mfastboot erase recovery is not required. Simply use: mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I flashed philz recovery. Rebooted again and went into recovery and it worked, the recovery was still there
But one more thing on reboot of recovery it didn't ask if i wanted to fix root. Am i rooted already or not? :/
Are you on stock or a custom rom? Certain custom roms may have built in root access for everything else you will have to flash SuperSU.
Glad to see you got the recovery issue sorted. I'm with you I don't particularly like TWRP so I pretty much use Philz exclusively.

Phone boot only in recovery mode, or fastboot

Hello
I just installed Lineage, and it worked, installed it via fastboot boot recovery...
After installation, I wanted to install the recovery too, so i run the command fastboot flash recovery
Then I try it, and it's working. TWRP 3.0.2.0.
But, after reboot, it's booting directly to TWRP. Again and again. can't boot normally to system...
Anyone have a solution ?
Thank you

It has to be done in this order:
fastboot flash twrp.img
boot TWRP
install LOS zip

Try using newer version of TWRP.

Bootloop to fastboot

Bootloop to fastboot after being on dp3, and restoring carbon. I tried fastboot boot twrp.img, but it fails....I also tried fastboot flash it, it does, but still reboots to fastboot. Any suggestions?
I assume you had TWRP installed when this condition occurred, and trying to boot TWRP just sent you to fastboot?
What was the exact error message when trying to fastboot boot TWRP?

It sends the file...then I get a remote error. I tried fastboot flash too. It completed, but still boots to fastboot. Guess msm tool is needed. This phone is a pita.
I cannot get twrp to boot.....Phone refuses to boot it. WTF???
Have you tried this specifically?
Code:
fastboot flash boot recoveryname.img
I was stuck in fastboot yesterday after doing a TWRP restore. The issue was I did a backup and restore including boot and system/vendor.

LOL...Um, yes.
Use the All-In-One Tool and flash a fastboot firmware zip (you can find downloads in the software itself). After flashing your back on OOS and can use fastboot to boot TWRP again, then install or restore your rom

no boot in twrp possible

Hi,
I have the problem that I can no longer boot into the TWRP. I can enter the system and the Fastboot normally.
When I want to start TWRP I always see the TWRP picture for a few seconds and then black and it repeats itself.
Can I flash TWRP via Fastboot?
gave the command fastboot flash boot or recovery TWRP.img
Thanks for the help

I'm guessing your on OOS open beta 1 or 2?
TWRP not working is a known issue
Fastbooting TWRP won't work either. You will have to downgrade back to Android 10 to get TWRP working again
Ok thank you I didn't know that.
The downgrade worked.
Thanks again
