Click to expand...

There are a couple of ways to do this. As you said your running CROMi-X DEODEX, 4.2 bootloader (twrp 2.4.4.0-4.2 or 2.5.0.0-4.2) - so example below to flash latest stock asus JB 4.2 firmware for tf300t model - TF300T-WW_epad-10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher.zip.
Method 1: - Using TWRP
Download the asus firmware zip - TF300T-WW_epad-10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher.zip
Unzip this to a folder and inside you will find another zip called WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip - Copy this zip file to your microSD.
Insert microSD in tab and reboot to twrp recovery, flash the WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip , reboot, Done :good: You will now be on stock asus firmware, stock recovery & stock kernel.
Method 2 - Using fastboot - Assuming here android-sdk is installed and fastboot & adb working.
Download the asus firmware zip - TF300T-WW_epad-10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher.zip
Unzip this to a folder and inside you will find another zip called WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip
Here I put a copy of the WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip on my micro SD card
On PC unzip WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip and you will find a "blob" file- this is the system blob file for that firmware which is the system, stock recovery, kernel & bootloader all rolled into a one blob file.
Copy this blob file to your android-sdk/platform-tools folder
The version of TWRP you need for the JB 4.2 - 10.6.1.15.3 bootloader is "openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2.blob" - flashing a non-4.2 version of TWRP or any version of CWM will brick device. Not sure if 2.4.4.0-tf300t-4.2 works on 10.6.1.15.3 bootloader.
So download "openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2.blob" and also put this in android-sdk/platform-tools folder - you can rename it to something shorter if you want, say twrp-2.5.0.0-4.2.blob
Now connect tab to pc and boot to fastboot and check that pc can see your device ok
Code:
fastboot devices
should see device s/n here, if ok we can flash the system blob we put in the platform-tools folder
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash system blob
This will take 10ish minutes, it will send file then write file and you should a blue progress bar on tab when it starts to write.
When complete
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You should now check & confirm that your bootloader has upgraded, look at the text in the top left of the bootloader screen and make sure it now has 10.6.1.15.3 in the text.
Here you should really be able to just reboot the tab and be fine but I would get stuck at boot animation so next part is a second flash of the same firmware but via TWRP recovery instead of fastboot, so method 1 - but you now have stock recovery so we need to flash TWRP first.
So in fastboot flash the "openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-4.2.blob" I shortened to "twrp-2.5.0.0-4.2.blob"
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp-2.5.0.0-4.2.blob
again here you should see a blue progress bar on your tab
When done reboot to bootloader again
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
This time select the RSK icon and boot TWRP recovery. In recovery I do a full wipe then follow method 1 and flash the WW_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip from microSD, reboot & done :good: - You will now be on stock asus firmware, stock recovery & stock kernel.
If you need any more help just ask or have a look at my how-to in sig below for more info.

Thanks for that looong post . I did that but I forgot to do a wipe after installing... I was very upset. But I did wipe and now my tablet fully workin'. THANKS!!!

[Q] Custom Recoveries

Can someone point me to a procedure to install a custom recovery. I'm currently on the stock recovery, have downloaded a CWM .img file, but don't know how to "flash" it using the stock recovery. Or is that not the way it's done at all? Thanks for the assistance.

Hi,
[GUIDE] Nexus 5 - How to Unlock Bootloader, Install Custom Recovery and Root

You need to flash it in fastboot. Boot into the boot loader and, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. where recovery.img is the cwm image file

[A510] I need stock system.img

I need stock system.img in order to flash it via fastboot. I have deleted my recovery and now i have no rom installed so i need these files. Hope someone can uploaded them fast because i am running out of time.

As said by PM
Reboot in fastboot, and do
fastboot boot recovery.img
(using CWM or TWRP)
In recovery, you will be able to flash a ROM or restore a backup.

[Q] Restore stock recovery on Nexus 5

I am currently running CWM recovery and want to go back to stock recovery? How do I return to stock recovery? and where do i find the stock recovery file if I have to flash it?
My Nexus 5 is running android 4.4.4.

I have attached the ktu84p stock recovery image to this post.
Download the zip file and extract the recovery.img file.
Then use fastboot to flash it to your device:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

recovery missed when i try to flash wiith twrp

hello everyone
i unlocked my redmi 4 prime in official way

but now my phone stuck on mi logo(bootloop)
official recovery and twrp recovery are missed now and just fastboot mode are available please give me a way to directly use fastboot command (without mi- flashtools) to flash china or global rom
in fact i dont know which files( files that is in tgz file) must select to flash with fastboot flash command

The file must be in the root folder of ADB, the filename could be recovery.img or twrp.img too.
