What for a ROM and CWM Version have you using?
CWM6.0.2.9 goes not for the most ROMs! You must need CWM6.0.4.4 or higher, or TWRP-Recovery for Padfone 2!
Perhabs your Device can reactivatet by a new Firmware-Flash with CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP!

Thank you so much for your replies

false national rom!
I think you have Flash the fals national Rom! TW = Taiwan-ROM, CHT = China-ROM, WW = Worldwide-English, and so on! Thats named SKU Version of the ROM! When your padfone from Europa or USA than you need a WW or WWE ROM! It gives a thread on XDA for flashing other,false,back SKU on Padfones! Search that thread, there a tuturials for Changing or Flash back SKUs! Your device need a Flash back to his original SKU-Version of your ROM!
And for CWM your padfone must be unlocked! But thats simple! On Asus Homepage search your device, and than you can Download a Unlock-APK! Download and install thies apk on your padfone, and start it, than your bootloader is unlocked! And after that, you can install CWM or TWRP on several ways!

i dont know what is the fals natinoal rom ? and i bought my phone from taiwan ? and i dont know what is my build version i cant remember ? and how i can unlock the bootloader and my phone its not booting up normally ? can you tell me what i have to do please step by step and thank you so much

Build-Number is not important!
May be i can help you! Can you start the device in CWM-Mode? Can you go in CWM? In case that you can, load a TW-ROM (TW=Taiwan) via ADB-Sideload over CWM to your device! Than the device should install the original TW-ROM automaticaly!
In case that CWM not Functional, try to turn off the device, wait 30-seconds, than hold the ``+`` (Plus) button on the side of the device, and turn on the device where you hold the ``+`` (Plus) button permanently! Yet should come the ASUS-Logo and in the Top of the Display should stand ``Fastboot-Mode``! Can you please try that, and say me what the device do!?

Ok! I think it is the old CWM6.0.2.9 problem, this version of CWM has problems with flashing ROMs! BUT, there is one ROM on XDA for Padfone2 that must flash with CWM6.0.2.9! It is Tari's Padfone2 Custom ROM+Kernel! It is easy to find on XDA, and this ROM will flashing over Sideload with CWM6.0.2.9! Search on XDA for Tari's Padfone2 ROM, there you can Download the files, and there is also a step by step tuturial, follow that, and try!
And have you tested that Fastboot goes?

yes i tried fastboot and sideload i have no problem with that i can send the roms to my phone but the problem my phone cant flash it ?

OK! But i think your Bootloader is Open, than otherwise, you cant go in Fastbootmode or CWM!? Fastbootmode and CWM (Recovery), that is the Bootloader!
You can go in CWM, then you can make the flash-prozedure of all ROMs! (Stock and Custom)!
Try Taris ROM! Go in CWM, make Wipe Data/Factory Reset, make Wipe Cache, and Sideload Taris ROM!
Did that not work, try CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP-Recovery to Flash Original ASUS-TW-Firmware!
And when you can start CWM with - fastboot boot recovery.img - , than normaly you can also Flash it permanently with - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img - !

There is a other custom ROM for Padfone2 from Sissidroid! Search on XDA for - Guerilla ROM - it is easy to find, and in the thread to this ROM there is a link for Download CWM6.0.4.4. Because CWM6.0.4.4 is needed to Flash Guerilla-ROM from Sissidroid!
In Google search - TWRP for Padfone2 - then you find a TWRP-Site, from there you can Download TWRP-Recoverys for Padfone2. Take the Version 2.6.3.0 of TWRP, not other. The other Versions dont go! TWRP is a Recovery like CWM, but TWRP has a Touch-Interface, and the funtionality is often better than CWM!

ok am gonna look for cwm6.0.44 and for twrp 2.6.3.0 and flash one of them on my phone not just like how i was did i mean just boot it and after that flash one of the roms which you told me about them already but just to remind you my phone its not rooted is that fine ... let me know and thank you so much my friend

The Root is here not so important. In most cases a ROM-Flash Unrooting the device! Every Time when i Flash a ROM, the device is after the Flash unrooted, and i must it Root again! Root is important for a Running System! And it gives a way to Root the Device over ADB/Fastboot, but i dont know how. But i have never Need a Root for ROM-Flash!

Yes, you can do that without root! Important for that is only you can go in Fastbootmode and CWM/TWRP!

hi my friend : i have problem with flashing the recovery { fastboot flash recovery recovery.img } i dont know why and i tried to just boot the recovery img for test : fastboot boot boot recovery.img i tried it with twrp and its show me just the picture TEAM WIN BUT ITS NOT FUNCTIONAL CHECK THE PICS PLEASE AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND THANKS

On the pics i see, that recovery-flash was failure! In your CMD-pic, adb gives you a writing-failure! That can happen, when you try it ones! Try it again, and also with cwm! What for twrp version have you try? By right flashing, cmd gives you a sending recovery ok, and writing recovery ok! You have sending ok, but writing a failure!?
And what for adb/fastboot binarys use you?
P.s.: I have a important question, as you tryed to flash Asus Firmwares, have you unzip the Firmware before flashing? Or just Download and Flash how it is!

Stuck at ASUS logo

I have unlocked my bootloader using the Asus tool. I was following Step #3 from the link below. Everything went fine as I was able to boot back into stock JB and download SuperSu, apply the update and get root. I downloaded Root Checker and verified that I had root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845377
I then downloaded CM 10 and ASU JellyBean Hydro R1 and tried to flash each one of them. I always wipe everything before flashing and fix permissions after flashing. When I reboot, it just hangs at the ASUS boot screen. Any ideas? I have tried flashing from both CWM and TWRP with the same results.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
1st if you went to stock JB there is no way of flashing CM10, Skang JB, Blackbean and all other ICs roms.
Only thing you should be able to flash is Hydro JB or stock JB. You have to use the JB recovery from now on. I would recommand TWRP for JB.
If you have this, just follow the instructions in the HydroJB thread. After flashing the Hydro Rom you have to boot into system once. After that you can go back to recovery and flash the Hydro Update.
Thanks for the reply mikaole. I tried flashing the Hydro JB rom and even the stock JB rom from Asus's site. Hydro just stops at the Asus logo after flashing. Stock JB does the same thing, but it displays "md5 mismatch" in red underneath "device is unlocked", then stops at Asus logo. I am going to try to download the stock JB rom again from Asus and see if I just had a bad download. I will try going back to TWRP instead of CWM too. Is there a specific version of TWRP that I should use? I used the one's in step #3 of the thread I referenced in the OP. I appreciate any help or advice.
I was able to flash back to TWRP JB recovery, then download a fresh copy of the stock Asus JB rom, wipe everything, flash the rom, fix permission and reboot and this time it worked. I think the only thing I really did different this time was to fix permissions after flashing.
Thanks again!
work for me! tanks DAVID!!
The same problem
Hi at all, i'm writing from italy so my english is not so good
i've the same problem with my TF300t: i've update my tab to JB with OTA and then unlock the BL with asus apk. then i've rooted my tab and all works fine.
But then i've tried to mount the CM10 rom, and after the installation my tab stuck at bootlogo
i've read to try to install hydro JB or asus stock rom, but my PC now do not read the device (tf300t): so how can i install another rom if my tab can't load nothing via USB?
thanks for the replies, Jacopo

Did you make a nandroid backup before flashing cm10? If so, just restore from there and you should be able to sync from your pc

Hi !
than you can try to flash blob files into firmware.zip directly in fastboot mode ! ...of course if fastboot command it work ...
what TWRP you use :2.2.1.5 or 2.2.2.0 ? - I use 2.2.2.0 and I can flash asus firmware JB !
...another thing ( I'm not sure 100% ) you must to unzip firmware.zip because is double zipped ! I downloaded the WW SKU.zip unzipped this archive and I get another archive .zip ! so you need to put in sdcard the second archive !
...also if fastboot work , put your device in fastboot mode and > fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob
( where blob~818MB is in firmware asus JB archive ! )

[A700] [HowTo] Update German Version to JB

Hi!
Just found a way to update to JB from the 1.053 version (Acer_AV043_A700_RV22RC03_EMEA_DE) on wich every other update failed for me. But runs with the other versions, too.
Unlock Bootloader
Install CWM (6.0.1.4)
Visit this german forum
get the file A700 JB Full ROM AV051_1.028.00_EMEA_DE RV09RC02.zip
flash it via CWM
DONE!
Just tested and it's working.
Credits go to those who deserve it.
I deleted CWM and a mate let it where it was and both A700 are running fine [*] (see below!)
... now waiting for root
----------------------------
[*] New info:
My friend, who kept CWM, unlocked the bootloader again after the update and now has a bootloop. So my advice is to kill CWM after the update.
I don't get into recovery too (with locked bootloader) it says "recovery image verified failed". But system starts normally afterwards.
------------------
More info:
I had CWM on the tab too, because i misunderstood the question:
When asked
Code:
ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?
No
No
No
Yes - Disable recovery flash
say NO! to kill CWM.
------------------
Still more info to come:
(4.10.2012)
The bootloop was fixed by flashing a propriate recovery after beeing able to enter fastboot using the right key combination.
andiby left us a JB stock recovery: recovery.img and he build a CWM 6.0.1.4 with JB Kernel: recovery-a700-6014JB.img which runs fine for me.
Use the CWM with JB Kernel only to flash files and not to WIPE, FORMAT or RESTORE a backup, because there were issues with a different JB based CWM and I can't guarantee this one to work, because I have not tested it.
I'm on FR Firmware, can you tell me how should I proceed?
If you want to keep the FR firmware you will have to wait for an appropriate update file.
If you want to switch to Germen I think it should work with this method, because the zip file contains everything from bootloader to system files.
Do you think I can here: https://app.dumptruck.goldenfrog.com/p/GOKKb2PavJ download an install then install Acer_A700_AV043.RV07RC03_AV043.RV07RC06_EMEA_DE thereafter this here JB?
I would not recommend it, because your file is only 340 MB while the one from the thread above is nearly 400 MB.
I think you only need the file from my post, because there is everything in it fpr JB afaik, but I can give no guarantee, because I only used it to update my German version.
PS: Might it be posible to reduce the size of your signature a bit? Threads are much more difficult to read if a signature is almost always larger than a normal post. Thank you to give consideration to my request.

Yes but i can from FR Firmware to DE and install first update (5MB) and this is 1.053 => finally JB or i think wrong?
PS: Nope. These are my projects
update or flash total
Is it an upgrade or full flash?
Did you delete all data you had or upgrade your system?

@DakiX: all I can say is that I would not recommend using this method with any other file than the one mentioned in the first post, because this is the one I tested.
Thank
Thank you. I will flash now.

I just don't get why you want to flash anything else before the "A700 JB Full ROM AV051_1.028.00_EMEA_DE RV09RC02.zip" because it is a FULL ROM and should be flashable over ICS 1.023, ICS 1.027, ICS 1.053 and ICS 1.055 to get JB 1.028.

But for me, recovery 6.0.1.4 is KO after the update. I need to use the one with "the brick bug". Not good at all

Can you get into recovery mode using "adb reboot recovery"?
Nope.. failed but its understandable because CWM must be made for 4.1.1

Buddy...just enter recovery...you know how to enter Cwm right...then there is an option to wipe data/format. Select it to wipe data...this will reset your phone..
Thank me if I helped you...
@fonetalker101 To boot into CWM turn off your phone then turn it back on when you see sony logo continuously press volume down button untill you enter recovery. when installing CWM make sure you are "ROOTED" and have usb debugging checked in developer settings.

Directly booting to recovery

I have a rooted S-7500, with CWM recovery 5.0.2.8 installed. I (by mistake) allowed the 'software update' option to install a system update(or something) today by mistake (I know, you should never install system updates after rooting. My bad.) Since then, the phone directly goes to the cwm recovery mode on powering on, and i am unable to do anything else
I am not very well versed with the finer details of rooting bootloader recovery n all...so pls some details with steps...if possible .
Any help whatsoever...please I will be really grateful

Thanks!!! It totally worked!
Just a clarification...now that i have got the stock rom back on my phone...am i right in saying that I have lost root access, my phone is totally back to the 'original' state, and i have lost CWM as well? Please correct me if I am wrong.
And assuming that I am correct(above), I would like to re-root my device(need to use proxydroid to surf internet over the damned proxy server!). So..can I follow the standard method, ie, can I do it the same way I had done before, or do i need to do something different now?
And once again...THANK YOU for your help! I had ended up hard bricking my previous phone, and was really scared when this happend to my aceP. You saved me!
Easy way to ROOT your SGAP
Yes by the time you flash stock rom you loss root even any custom recovery you flashed before...
but now if you want to root your SGAP again don't follow that guide again which you done before just follow this :
Download ODIN from Downloading link below (inside ODIN software folder)
Download any one recovery which you like TWRAP / CWM v5.5 (inside Custom recovery folder)
Download Root_SGAP.zip from Root folder & place that zip inside in your sd card
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download Link : GALAXY Ace Plus - Basic stuff
FOR Custom_Recovery :
Open odin, be sure your system has already install drivers & if kies is there close it.
extract recovery zip
connect device to pc in download mod (vol down + power + home) & select that (recovery) .md5 file in pda section inside ODIN software
Click start & wait to reboot device
FOR ROOT :
Now boot device in CWM mod ( vol up + down + power + home)
choose zip from sd card & select Root_SGAP.zip
DONE.

if you are going to stick on stock rom forever & only want to root device then stock recovery is ok for you...
but while dealing with custom roms, custom recoveries are smart choice.
it has lot of additional options than stock recovery.
so my opinion yes use custom recovery ​
Stuck in boot loop
Got stuck in boot loop after performing the steps. I was running this ROM.
Had to reinstall the ROM. I'm sure there's something I didn't understand or something I did wrong. I'd be thankful if anyone could point it out.
Thanks in advance.

Help! NO OS installed/Need help flashing stock ROM to soft(?)-bricked S6 SM-G290F

So yesterday i done a pretty stupid thing of restarting my phone after I hid my SU binary using hide my root. This left what i think was a soft-brick as it was stuck on the samsung animation. I then stupidly enough got confused with my TWRP recovery menu and ended up wiping out my OS, leaving only the TWRP recovery on the phone. I then decided to download a 6.1.1 stock rom for my SM-G920F. When i tried flashing however, somehow ODIN froze and i made another stupid mistake of restarting my phone from download mode which resulted in the phone being froze on a screen saying " an error has occurred while updating the device software use the emergency recovery function s6 " cant provide an image as this is my first post, but please google the error message if you wish to see it
So i panicked thinking my phone was dead completely and surrendered, but today i managed to hook it up to TWRP and flashed the recovery. Now when i bootup i can access download mode and it boots straight to recovery. To make matters worse I began trying to download the original rom i recieved when i got the phone, however when i try flashing i get errors such as " SW rev, Check Fail: 'x' binary 'y' device "
(x and y vary for each stock rom i tried flashing.)
I have no way of finding out my firmware, bootloader info or anything. Is there ANY fix to this? I've made a huge mess of everything and I'm now desperate. Please, any advice would be a god-send. Thank you for withstanding this crappy post, I'm kind of a noob at xda.
EDIT 1- So I managed to install a custom ROM and kernal as i could transfer files while in TWRP for some reason but a new problem has showed up. So as of right now I have a custom rom installed which works, but when reboot my phone, TWRP is automatically opened after the initial samsung logo. I usually have to reflash my custom ROM (without wiping any data besides cache and dalvik) and the ROM installer will then reboot into the ROM, however this means when my phone turns off, my recovery is booted up instead of the ROM
I'm sensing some sort of Bootloader problem?

First off i dont own an S6 (im still rocking the S4), but i have had some problems over the years but always managed to fix them in the end.
So while in Download mode are you not able to Flash Stock ROM (downloaded from samfirmware) via ODIN (following the instructions on the site)?
In TWRP are you not able to flash a custom ROM (probably with OTG cable if you dont have the ROM stored on the internal memory).
Any issues i have had i have always been able to do at least one of the above methods. If you cant do either or, im not sure what else i would try.
Thanks

'Device not recognised' fixed it though. Flashed custom ROM with TWRP
