Help stuck in CWM - Eee Pad Transformer General

Tried to apply new UK update ,hid root and system found update but if failed on install and is now stuck in CWM .I have now download the CWM flashable zip for the update but as I'm stuck in cmw every time I reeboot it then I can't get the file on the unit any help would be great

I think upgrade from .17 to .21 mustn't have the CWM in the first place. One need to have stock recovery for the update to take place without problem.
Anyway, isn't that zip file can be place in the microSD slot card and flash from there?

You can get files with extern sdcard or with ADB - command "push".

when i enter CWM recovery all it shows are folders from the internal memory so i cant get to the update file to flash it

So you connect your TF with PC and send the file with ADB. Or not?
Mount sdcard in CWM recovery and:
Code:
adb push "/path/to/file/in your pc" "/data/media/"
And then you see the file in root directory in internal memory.

managed to get it rebooted via power on volume down then vol down again still on .17 going to flash the cwm .21 now
thanks for the help

Just push and hold Vol down plus power button.
Wait till you get the option of cold boot Linux or wipe data.
Choose cold boot, once your tf boot up use terminal emulator(free in market).
Open Terminal and type:
-su ( you should get a #)
next type:
-echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0
now type in:
-reboot
Note press ENTER after every line
That should get you out of the recovery loop

flashed the cwm update and it applied no problem but still have the same issue eveytime i switch it off and then back on it goes straight into clockwork mod recovery and if i press reboot system now it just loops round , only way to avoid it is power off then volume down power on then volume down and boot android?
think i have lost root

sorry still have root , updated to lastest clockwork mod and still getting it booting into recovery when powered on

[Q] UnBricking No terminal or File manager on phone

hey forum
as you can guess i'm bricked and don't have a file manager or terminal program on my phone.... fell like an idiot for even trying this rom now, any way of moving the mtd0.img and flash_image to /data without them?
regards scott
Code:
adb shell
mv path/to/file new/path/to/file
You may need chmod 755 if the file is meant to be executable, not sure though.
might sound stupid but how to i adb to phone i keep typing adb devices hoping it will pop-up but there is non... is there a mode i should be in?
USB debugging on, phone plugged into PC... The phone needs to be on too, either in recovery mode or normal usage. If you want to be writing stuff to /system you need to be in recovery mode. Be sure to mount /system too.
just went into recovery mode (power off>hold + back>bootloader>recovery (i belive thats recovery mode)) still no devices same with the phone turned on normal usage
another quastion if i could get my hand on nandroid files from someelses htc legend would it work on mine???
You need to be in clockworkmod recovery. Look into fake flash.
You can use someone else's nandroid, but you'll end up with all their data. Personal stuff too...

Fake flash is the best!
1. Just find the clockwork recovery ZIP file and put it in the root of your SD card as "update.zip" with small letters and without the quotes.
2. Power down your phone.
3. Hold Volume down and press Power.
4. Select Recovery and press Power again.
5. When you see the screen with the exclamation mark, hold Volume up and press Power.
6. From the menu screen select Install Update.zip from the SD card. Do not wory, the flash is not real. That's why it is called Fake flash.
7. Now you should be in the Clockwork Recovery.
Thx Guy I'm up and running going to keep clockwork and a ROM on my SD card all the time now

Constant boot to recovery

I had the stock CWM from rom manager and I tried reinstalling team rouge. Now everytime i hit reboot, it reboots to recovery the rom manager version. Any advice?
Ive also tried a hard shutdown, it powers up into recovery.
Well I solved it. I rebooted it held the vol down button and instead of telling it to go into recovery i let it sit till my system booted normal. Good job me, I wish i could add thanks to myself
Go here and see how to fix it.

If not you'll have to go through the cold boot process with the buttons every time
I also had this problem few days ago. But, I deal with there steps:
1. press power button and volume down
2. seeing the ASUS logo, don't press volume up and wait for few seconds
3. the TF will turn to a screen and ask you whether to wipe or cold boot
4. Cold boot it and the TF should boot regularly
and try these steps to install new recovery:
1. after booting, use cmd to access adb shell
2. type: echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0
3. place your new recovery in sdcard
4. flash it through rom manager
5. wait for flashing and rebooting. the frickin' recovery should be gone
Without adb

Worked for me from shell too. Just switched off the device and cold booted after entering the above command (echo boot .... ) to bypass the damaged 5.5.0.4 recovery.

[Q] TF101 Stuck in CWM, adb access, no ICS

I seriously searched EVERYWHERE.
My TF101 is now stuck in CWM. The only way to turn it off is a weird way I found out by holding POWER + VOL UP...
If I try to turn it off, it just turns back on. I have full adb access, and I wiped data/factory reset because I was trying to revert back to the original Asus ICS rom, but now I can only get into CWM and if I try booting into Android it just sits there forever. I tried downloading the "US_epaduser9_2_1_17.zip" and tried "adb install" onto the tablet, but it says there is no Manifest.xml
How do I reinstall ICS (stock) back on the tablet AND remove CWM? (Basically completely unroot it)

If you're holding Power + Vol up it's not turning OFF but is simply in APX mode.
What version of CWM?
With ADB you have to ADB push NOT ADB install
I have version v5.5.0.4
I tried adb push but doesn't that just send the file to the tablet?
I can't access anything on the tablet, just cwm. If i try to "install from sdcard" it will say cannot mount "sdcard"
Also more info: I rooted with viper and then unrooted with it.
Try to reboot into system ,then when the screen goes off to do it hold power and volume-. Hopefully a screen will come up with some small print in the upper left hand corner . Let go of the power and volume and let it chill, should cold reboot after 10 sec

Now it doesnt' even cold reboot..
I think I wiped the entire Android system away.
Because when I cold boot it from that menu with the 2 icons, it just stays there when I push ok.
Also, I have a microSD and it won't detect it. I tried formatting with the sd card formatter from the sd assosiation website with no luck. The only thing i can use right now is adb and cwm.

With 5.5.0.4 it only read from the internal sd card.
Did you flash CWM via ROM Manager? If you did go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530337
That thread will also show you how to use ADB to push files to the internal storage for flashing
Then you'll have to ad push. The problem is that recovery is ****ed. I don't have a whole lot of experience with adb, for some reason adb won't recognize my tf. I wish that I could help you more

Thank you for that! But, I don't really get the instructions. (I'M SUPER SORRY I'M TOTALLY NEW TO THIS D
while booted into CWM 5.5.0.4 ...
step 1: use adb to push a good recovery [I used Rogue XM v1.3.0 (CWM-based v5.0.2.7)]***
step 2: flash the zip
step 3: use the adb shell to execute the following command
What does it mean by good recovery and flash what zip?
Edit: When I try to push files to the tablet, how do I view them on there? I can't install from sdcard as it says it cannot mount it.
Please help? :/
I SOLVED IT!
I just used nvflash and reflashed the entire Asus ICS rom back on!
Thank you to everyone who tried to help!

Hi
Im stuck in a horrible situation here,
I have been running clean rom on nexus for the past couple of days and decided to try another rom but i went into cmw mode and formated data and system and now i can boot my nexus or run cmw ??
Nexus root kit says im not in ADB mode and need to set nexus in debugging mode ARRRRGHHHHHH i cant because i cant load into JB ??
Help please anyone
Paul
Plug you tablet into the usb port on the computer..
hold the down vol key then hold the power key
Sometimes it takes a few times to get this to work .It should take you to the boot-loader screen . Use the vol + vol - key and scroll to where it says reboot boot-loader . or just boot-loader hit the power key..
you should now be able to get into cwm with the above and select recovery.. If that fails try below.. But much better tutorial on the programs thread ..
when you come back to the boot-loader screen you should see device found on your computer. Start the nexus root tool kit.. Go to advance and flash recovery partion back to cwm or twrp.. then flash custom rom..
silly guy you deleted the rom you were going to flash..
now you can also at where you get flash recovery . FLASH TWRP 2.2.2 I THINK (LATEST ..
PUT a rom on a flash drive .. using otg cable boot into TWRP AND You can flash the rom from otg storage..
hope this helps For some reason this device will hand with cwm without a usb cable connected to something powered.. can be another cell cable tv box your tv or anything .. Computer of course
I can load CMW now but its no use as i havent got a zip rom on the sdcard now grrrr

use the nexus tool.. to do the stock rom / unroot .. It will ask of your tablet can boot.. Select no..
it will boot you into fast boot and put a image back on your tablet....
You poor guy .. I think you need a hug...
OK i will write you a little guide to get you going again
This is pretty much what the scripts do, but you will be doing it by hand (always good to know what to do in case of emergency)
if you have the red triangle then you havnt flashed CWM, you are only booting it
1. Download the recovery.zip attached below
2. extract it to the root of your C: drive
3. open a command prompt (cmd) and CD to the directory
Code:
C:
cd recovery
4. rename your downloaded rom to rom.zip (for simplicity) and copy it into the recovery folder you extracted
there should now be 6 files in the folder
Code:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
fastboot.exe
recovery.img
rom.zip
5. boot your phone into bootloader (power & volume)
plug N7 into PC
6. in your cmd window type
Code:
fastboot devices
(to make sure your N7 is detected)
you should see something like
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (BOOTLOADER)
7. type
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
about 20seconds and you should now be booted into Clockwork Mod
8. go to mounts & storage and click on mount /data (not sure if this is neccessary but do it anyway)
9. make sure your phone is detected in recovery by typing
Code:
adb devices
your should see
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (RECOVERY)
10.back to your cmd window and do
Code:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
this will take a while to do (probably about 5 mins)
11. Once complete you can install the rom as usual in CWM
I did this once while setting up my dads n7. I wrongly assumed that cwr had USB storage mount as an option so I didn't copy the ROM over.
The best option for those in this situation without much hassle is to use the all in one toolkit to download and install stock ROM from fast boot. It will download stock image onto your PC and then flash it from fast boot. It will also reflash stock recovery.

I have had that android with red triangle twice. Believe me youre nexus is far from over. Just used the toolkit and flashed stock. Problem solved. When i used it there was an option that says...device on or cant boot up. So i just selected cant boot up. Put the device in bootloader and thats it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
that is correct, you cant mount usb storage, but you can quite easily adb push files from your pc to your /sdcard/ partition then just install them in CWM
i just got my N7 this afternoon, checked for defects, hastily download ParanoidAndroid N70000 (not realising that N70000 is the Galaxy note)
unlocked bootloader, flashed CWM
wiped System/Data then tried installing new rom only to realise that it wont install and because i have wiped system i have no android
easiest way for me was by downloading correct rom
adb push newrom.zip /sdcard/
then when you go to install my new rom is now on internal memory

TF101 no boot from recovery...

First, sorry for my bad english!
I have a TF101, rooted, and with a 4.1 JB, with a problem with boot.
If I press ON/off button, then I can't restart. I have a recovery page, when I press system boot I have a loop, with restart of recovery.
If I press the On/off button, then start with ON+volume down, I have two icons. If I press volume up I have a cold Linux boot, then finally TF restart.
What's my error?
Can you help me?
Thank you!
This is a recovery boot loop. There are a few fixes out there.
Method 1:
I take absolutely no credit for this fix, and I apologise if it has already been posted or it's in the wrong section. Not being very proficient with ADB and command lines and tearing my hair out trying to find a fix for my TF101 I came across this little gem.
Open a terminal window, e.g. with Android Terminal Emulator from
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...al.androidterm
Now, enter “su” to get root access. Superuser might ask you for authorization.
Then enter “echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0”
Reboot. Your device should now work normal again.
Thanks to Pete's Blog at http://hmastuff.com.​
Method 2:
install TWRP recovery. To do this, install GooManager from the play store. Once installed open and grant root access. Then tap the three buttons in the top right and choose Install OpenRecovery Script. Allow it and when you reboot you will have TWRP recovery. I personally prefer TWRP to CWM but your results may vary.​
and dont use rom manager to flash roms on the transformer:good:
OK, it works! (with terminal emulator method).
I must study the sintax of the commands!
Grazie/Thanks/merci/danke!!!!
I didn't use Rom Manager, I tried a reinstallation of stock ROM... (because I have problems with pendrive USB and dock station, and I don't know if it depends on ROM...
Thanks!
if you want, you have reboot2recovery on play store it's work fine for me
