My friend then try installing cwm recovery to your device, follow these steps to install
1. Download CWM recovery for ASUS memopad 8 here.
2. Copy the downloaded recovery to location of minimal ADB and fastboot.
3. Rename the recovery to recovery.img.
4. Boot your device into fastboot mode.
5. Type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
6. Type fastboot flash misc misc_reboot-recovery.img
7. Type fastboot reboot recovery
8. You should be on CWM based recovery if you did the steps correctly.
In CWM recovery :
1. Go to wipe factory data using volume rockers and perform wipe data
2. Go to wipe cache partition and wipe it
3. Go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache
4. Go back and reboot your device.
5. If your device doesnt boot still then again boot into CWM and choose zip from sd card and flash the stock rom.zip placed in root of your SD.
6. After flashing successfully initial boot will take sometime so wait patiently.
7. Thats all you have recovered your device :good:

Yes it is possible.
Make sure you have drivers for your phone and adb and fastboot installed.
Open command prompt in windows and run the following command to reboot into bootloader:
adb reboot bootloader
Now once phone is in bootloader (fastboot) screen run the command in command prompt:
fastboot oem lock
On your phone press the +Volume key
Thats it. Your phone will have bootloader locked.

Thanks for replying, what if someone with custom recovery/boot image lock the bootloader. It would hard brick the device ?

Use sp tool method to flash stock recovery/boot image and userdata to recover after bricking.

fastboot flash boot command is permanent (you will have permanent TWRP recovery installed on your phone)
fastboot boot command is temporary (It would just load TWRP temporary and used for mainly file recovery or backup)
it's depends on your decision

HP Slate 21 S100 Booting Failed

Friends I have an HP Slate 21 S100.
I installed TWRP a few days ago.
Then I installed software with TWRP and my device was working without any problems.
Then I said to install another software again and the device crashed.
First, I could not enter TWRP, although I reinstalled.
Then it went to boot menu while experimenting with fastboot.
This is the screen when I enter the recovery menu.

Then it returns to this screen again.

thank you you answered. I'm uploading boot.img and recovery.img via fastboot. it does not give an error but comes to the same screen again. where am I doing wrong. Can you tell me exactly how to do it one by one.

@gokhanc5
As I can see your phone stucks in Fastboot ( AKA Bootloader ) mode: in Android device's boot-mode is set by ro.bootmode property - what can be normal, recovery or fastboot - which is set in Android's system file named build.prop.
Simply flashing some images as you did doesn't cause this property gets reset.
Typically you reset device's boot-mode property by means of ADB and/or Fastboot commands
ADB
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot
Fastboot
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot

Telefonunuzun Fastboot (AKA Bootloader) modunda takıldığını görebildiğim gibi: Android cihazının önyükleme modu, Android'in build.prop adlı sistem dosyasında ayarlanan ro.bootmode özelliği tarafından ayarlanır - normal, kurtarma veya fastboot olabilir .
Yaptığınız gibi bazı görüntüleri basitçe yanıp sönmek, bu özelliğin sıfırlanmasına neden olmaz.
Genellikle aygıtın önyükleme modu özelliğini ADB ve / veya Fastboot komutları aracılığıyla sıfırlarsınız.

You managed to softbrick your phone hence you also should be able to unbrick it.
But this requires some knowledge: Your posts here show me that you have no understanding how things are working, which action triggers which consequences, what tools are the right ones to be used.
Anyways:
Because phone is accessible in Fastboot mode - as you said - simply re-flash phone's stock ROM to get rid off of all mods you applied to phone. This basically can be achieved by means of Fastboot tool:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash bootloader <BOOTLOADER-IMG-FILE>
fastboot reboot bootloader
ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 > nul
fastboot -w <STOCK-ROM-ZIP-FILE>
fastboot reboot
Take note that this as 1st thing of all things requires to have installed on computer the Android USB Driver provided by HP matching your HP Slate 21 S100: Request it from HP if you can't find the driver at your own.
Another possibility would be to take the phone to autorized service center and let them fix it.

adb sideload <rom zip name>.zip

Bugs
Audio don't work
120hz

A very nice ROM. But unfortunately not suitable as a daily driver without sound.
Is there a chance to fix the sound problem quickly?

The recovery is TWRP or OrangeFox?
My Xperia 5 ii is under Sony stock A12.
If I just enter Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, and then reboot my phone, it won't erase my userdata
Two very last questions:
• if the recovery is TWRP, how to disable certain Magisk modules from it, as I was able to do from OrangeFox under root Android 11?
• if I want to make a restorable system recovery, which boxes I have to check when I backup my system from TWRP?
Many thanks!

Thanks for your reply.

Still dreaming about an OrangeFox (or TWRP coming next)

Ok, thank you.
If anyone using this recovery has screenshots to show what more we can do with asop recovery compared to a normal one (can we backup and restore system as with TWRP?)
