when i get time i can check that ;D... i'm busy too =#
we can use another recovery's too... because we just stay looking what already have developed on XDA... BUT we have Developers on other forums... like 4PDA(RUSSIA), Gionee Forum, BBS(Chinese) and a lot of others... we need can try make a Index Inside XDA to push Other Development projects from other forums to be more easy to get a better community to can have more projects running... for example: CWM already have been developed on Chinese and Russian Forums and TWRP already have been developed to Kazam Tornado 348.. and that is to SAME PHONE... Just using another name/Brand =#
we need push XDA ADM/GM's to make a generic page to our phone... because he have too much Brand/Names but is exactly same phone and hardware =#
...
but anyway is awesome get someone already developing any project on xda.. don't give up this phone, he is powerful and we maybe can get CUSTOM KERNEL from Spanish TeamForce Developer team.. we just need flood them to demonstrate interest about that phone.. :highfive:

Hmm well guyz you gotta try it once but after you get a tutorial for flashing the stock rom on your device.

Deleted. My mistake of not knowing

DUHAsianSKILLZ said:
... guess no on wants a recovery. I dont own the device but, it should only break recovery if it fails. You can simply backup your stock recovery in flashify, and also, with a few commands typed in terminal.. You can create an image dump so you can flash incase you get into bootloops(unsure if it works). I have flashed many broken recoveries before and never had an hardbrick. Im not sure if BLU has download mode on their device but, as long you can reboot into that, you should be fine. Im unsure if there are any stock roms out right now.

Not a fair statement from someone that doesn't own the device It is very difficult to get adb running for this phone consistently. Additionally, backing up stock recovery fails using flashify. Lastly, I did attempt to flash this this morning with the recommended app from the OP and flashify and this is the recovery it booted to afterwards, which looks like the stock recovery (correct me if I am wrong).

that is the stock recovery... you can try use the KAZAM Tornado 348 TWRP, because they are the same phone and Share the same SDK to build Kernel and Another Boot images, if that don't work just flash your backup over it using ADB/fastboot
:highfive:
From 4dpa they have CWM and Carliv CWM working... but the best recovery to them is the official TWRP from Kazam Tornado 348

The point I am making is it appears that theses apps are not writing to our recovery partition. I will try to grab a log later if I can get adb running with this phone. I flashed the recovery in the OP several times and trying several apps.
Can you link to the recovery you are speaking of? I tried this because I was willing to chance it for the community.

this "apps" work to our recovery partition because they are the SAME PHONE... Same SoC... Same Manufacture project(From Gionee) I'm Running TWRP from KAZAM here... you can give a try without problems :highfive:
if your phone don't stay be recognized on computer try follow the steps on my Root Topic to get ADB driver Working Correctly... but if after install the ADB driver it don't get work you need reset the ADB.exe cache on computer...
just open CMD and run this code: taskkill /F /T /IM adb.exe
then try run the code: "ADB Devices" inside the folder where stay installed the ADB (if you follow my steps on C:\adb\ you will get it)
and Turn OFF the 3rd Firewall security Programs on windows to get fully access to ADB Daemon Service :highfive:

I hope the OP doesn't mind our chatter. I was able to flash the Twrp but it isn't without its issues. It is giving problems mounting cache and data when trying to wipe. I made a couple of backups and flashed a version of MIUI that I found in the Blu google + community. I was going to restore to stock but couldn't get Twrp to completely power off the device. Eventually data wiped and MIUI booted. Will check to see if I can restore a backup tomorrow.

(You don't format Cache and Data to F2FS... because the KitKat don't Support it to Run)

To me the 2.8.5.0 TWRP from KAZAM stay Working Correctly, i already format SDcard, Cache and Dalvik cache.. and make it don't bring problems to me... on 4PDA they talk about NVRAM problem... i don't know how to solve it but is easy to talk to they using translators ... there they have the Updated MiUi too... but if you have Backup your phone.. Use that ;D

[Q] How to Downgrade to 4.1.1 or Original for TF300T???

Hey guys!
I am trying to downgrade my current Stock 4.2.1 Rom to either 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 either stock or custom if possible even factory original.
How would I go about doing this as there is no clear cut instructions I could find....not sure if I can use NVFlash???
I previously had root performed using the VoodooOTA Method. Now I have unlocked the bootloader and also managed to install the TWRP Custom Recovery....although I do not think it has been installed correctly as it is unable to mount certain directories...../cache or /data and /system are some examples.....not sure if that is because of version or because of changes done to root enabler by new firmware upgrade.
If anyone has clear instructions or could point me in the right direction I would highly appreciate it!
Thanks
There might be a few issues with the new OTA update and recovery, if you already have a backup with nvflash from when you had ICS then yes there is a guide you can use to go back,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894867
if not then you should either try to flash one of the stock ROMs mentioned in the sticky in the Android Development section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227
or if you think twrp is not working well you should wait just in case you do damage to your device. There is a chance some partitions have been altered in the new update and twrp needs to be updated, by whoever is responsible for our version, to be able to function properly.
If the reason you want to go back is the launcher then there is an option to switch to the 4.1 launcher in the options, not sure where exactly but if you look a bit further down in this section you'll find someone else posting something about it.
And a last suggestion is that when you have a question better post it in the appropriate section

hahahaha! funny u mention that coz i think I screwed up :silly: ...What I did was download the official bootloader from the Asus Website ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T Firmware: V10.4.2.20 Only for US SKU (Android 4.1) and use fastboot to flash the blob file.....now the only thing it does is spin at ASUS (boot loop)....The funny thing is it did affect how the fast boot option loads though it now shows up with the option of USB....and does not automatically go to fastboot.....my comp recognizes both in fastboot and adb the device so there is something......just performed a cache and dalvik wipe but to no vail and prior did a fix permission.....ALSO I do not receive any error with regards to mounting like before....
btw....which section would this fall under??? Development?
OKAY!!!!!! Im back in business.....WOOT!!! It worked just had to perform a factory reset to stop boot loop

I am pretty sure he said that he is unlocked and running twrp, you can flash whatever rom you want from recovery but it will not bring back the ICS bootloader and the ability to have NVFLASH or even the 4.1 BL, so in reality he flashed a new rom and not actually downgrade to the previous state of the tablet.

That is actually correct, I dont know if itwill work in general but I previously had my OS rooted and backed up using Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper. The only thing that I did new from here on is
1. Backup an Nandroid using ADB Terminal Access -
Code:
adb backup –apk –shared –all –f C:\Android_Asus_4-2-1.ab
Ofcourse in-order to perform this feat you would need Android SDK Tools Package and Google USB Drivers installed on the drive
2. Perform the unlock bootloader using the apk found on the Asus Website
3. Flash Stock Rom that can be downloaded from Asus or here
using fastboot
4. Flash TWRP for JB using fast boot with help of link
5. Go into recovery Wipe Dalvik and Cache and Factory Restore
6. And boot!
Okay I know this is no GUIDE as I am press with time....I will try to make a proper one. but in all honesty I would just wait for the REAL DEV's to post the solution to 4.2.1

Hi,
I need to downgrade my tab as my touch doesn't work and need to flash other firmware it. It was told to me to downgrade and it should work, but was said I need TWRP because with CWM I could brick my tab. Without touch it's impossible to use TWRP. I have ulocked bootloader and rooted. Your guide doesn't seem to need of use exactly TWRP as Wipe Dalvik and Cache is worked when I rooted tab.

If it were so easy then why would I have bothered with Chinese recovery!!
ROM manager doesn't have any recovery for our phone. So it's pretty much useless except for launching into recovery.

Recovery Solution for Lollypop ROMs [Temporary Workaround]

Dear All,
After lot of testing I finally found the recovery working for CM Based Lollypop ROMs, as I don’t like CM recovery so I was looking for a workaround.
The working way is flash it via fastboot -
"fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img" (recoveryname.img whatever is the name of the download file)
or you can use Playstore Apps to flash img Files (Select Recovery not Kernel) for eg. - [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool, Flash Image GUI, Flashify etc.

or you can use Playstore Apps to flash img Files for eg. - Flash Image GUI, Flashify, [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool etc.

TWRP 2.8.4.0 have been tested by me no problem, dont know about 2.8.5.0 so try 2.8.4.0, also if showing waiting for device then you are not connected as fastboot properly check ur PC or connection.

[SOLVED + GUIDE] ASUS ZenPad 8.0 Z380KL how to solve bootloop

Hi Guys, i think that i have softbricked mi Zenpad :silly:
So, i have used KingRoot in order to have root permission, after i have use super_me or something like this in order to change KingUser app with SuperSu app, but after the reboot it has gone in bootloop
I have tried to reset it using standard recovery (by ASUS) but it doesn't works, it is still in bootloop.
Can you help me ? (again :laugh
Thanks to a Jappanase blog i was able to unbrick my tablet and install CM 13.0 without have a funcrional rom: {Mod edit}
------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to solve:
1_ Download the following zips in a folder
Code:
[URL="https://vasy.ru/TWRP/P024/"]https://vasy.ru/TWRP/P024/[/URL] TWRP
[URL="http://4pda.ru/pages/go/?u=http%3A%2...zip&e=48313529"]http://4pda.ru/pages/go/?u=http%3A%2...zip&e=48313529[/URL] CM 13.0
[URL="http://opengapps.org/?download=true&arch=arm&api=6.0&variant=pico"]http://opengapps.org/?download=true&arch=arm&api=6.0&variant=pico[/URL] G APPS
[URL="http://d-h.st/8FqR#"]http://d-h.st/8FqR#[/URL] ADB and other utilities . Thanks to @backwardastep
2_ Move CM 13.0 and G APPS in a sd card and insert it into the tablet
3_ Unzip z380klroot_w_xposed
4_ move the TWRP.img in the "z380klroot_w_xposed" folder
5_ open cmd on Windows and move in the z380klroot folder. Type:
Code:
cd C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\z380klroot_w_xposed
6_ Connect the tablet
7_ Then type:
Code:
fastboot boot twrpxx.xx.xx.img
the tablet will start to looking for a device
8_ Press power + "volume +" in order to put the tablet in recovery (you can also put the tablet in recovery mode before the point 7)
9_ Then it should boot a temporany TWRP
10_ From TWRP wipe all data and install first CM 13.0 and GAPPS as usual
Now you have a working CM 13.0
PS. i noted in the Andmen blog's that exist also an Resurrection Remix
Code:

You cannot flash the stock rom from twrp.
Stock roms work only with stock recovery

So I would have to reflash the stock recovery and use that to flash stock? If I use ASUS's FlashTool would that reset everything back to stock?

1. yes, you should flash before the stock recovery and then the stock rom
2. I don't know, i have never used asus flash tool, but i think that you should have anyway the stock recovery file
Again, i repeat, if someone know how copy the stock recovery, i can do it. My tablet have still the stock one and i could copy and post here !

Do you have a link to the stock recovery @bangdes?
Edit: I flashed this (https://www.asus.com/zentalk/tw/thread-147621-3-1.html) and now I just get an ASUS logo that eventually goes to the "Powered by Android" screen. Gonna try flashing stock now.
Edit 2: Gave me an error 7. Gonna try charging it up and flashing it again while I research what's up.
Edit 3: tried booting TWRP over stock recovery and adb sideloading it. finished saying total xfer: 1.09x and booted me to a black screen once I tried rebooting (TWRP gave me a No OS warning) saying it couldn't find drivers for Qualcomm HD-9008. ****, I think I just hard bricked my tablet yet again. Rebooted into driver signature disabled mode and it says "unknown device". Can't even turn off the damn thing.

my z380kl is latest (2016) version and cannot enter to recovery stock, or maybe the stock recovery doesn't exist.. it's weird

The stock recovery is just an Asus logo I think. That's what it is for me with the flashed recovery using the link above.

Ok, lil update. Found out a potential unbricking method:
{Mod edit}
Also this thread is just dedicated to this brick: {Mod edit}}
And here's a few others who have the same issue: {Mod edit}
According to a guy who natively speaks Russian, this is a hardbrick that can't be repaired without sending it in to the OEM.
Kinda wish I had a little birdie that could fly into the ASUS office (I've been there, actually pretty nice. Lounge chairs with tablets and phones on display to play with while you wait, and a TV that was playing Finding Nemo in Chinese. Plus staff was nice enough, I just played dumb about what happened lol) and just tell me what exactly I can do to fix this. Even worse, the one year warranty is almost up so I'm gonna have to fork over cash if I send it in to be repaired AGAIN. This makes me want to send this tablet off to repair and sell it off for a NVIDIA Shield or something, Jesus. I got burned by Asus with the ZF2 and yet I still fell into this trap. Same with Samsung, I guess I'm just a masochist or something. Anyways, currently juggling fixing/rooting my S7 along with school work, so it'll be a few days or so until I can start experimenting with this. On a sidenote, damn the OPO is good. Still flies after three years of daily usage

I apologize if it looks like a spam, I am just suggesting that you should at least try to restore the stock system partition before trying to flash stock rom using TWRP as it does not work with the custom ROM system partition. As far as I have tried I couldn't boot into stock recovery, maybe it doesn't have one on my model. I can only boot into fastboot.
Best bet is to try to boot into custom recovery and restore the stock system partition from a backup file and then flash the stock rom and see whether it works.

No, I'm asking you that if you're going to spam your own site then at least make a tutorial that's useful, not just a tutorial everyone who wants to flash CM13 already knows how to do.

Flash it via TWRP then? TWRP supports flashing .img too if you need to. :|

Just sayin bro...
And btw some things just dont work well without a PC. Even though it might be possible to work around it you might just wanna do this on a computer with these commands in adb:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
and
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and then reboot

Why would you want cwm? TWRP is way better. Oh and your recovery is gone. You can be lucky that you didn't brick your phone. Next time, use TWRP instead and ONLY if you have the ability to restore everything with a PC. ONLY make such hard modifications to your phone if you have a PC nearby
Confirm that you're fully rooted using something like Root Checker

Ok, I suspect something may be wrong with your root or TWRP or ROM, which may be the reason for the odd problems.
So do check & confirm root anyway, & also tell us the versions of your TWRP & ROM (latter in Settings > About phone > Build number).
