[Q] Cant into recovery & Stuck in Bootloop on unlocked device - Asus Transformer TF701

I want to flash a CM11 into my tablet, so I unlocked bootloader.(Devise's Build Number: Version V10.26.1.18 )
------> I flashed a CWMrecovery 6.0.4.5 into it .
----- > I reboot to bootloader can't get into recovery, so i select a full wipe in bootloader.
------>Tablet stucked in boot screen. I can't flash anything into it, because i can't get into bootloader & recovery(Even use Vol - &Power Button).
How can i get into bootloader again?
Or recovery?
Or flash a Offical rom back into it without recovery?

Unfortunately wiping from the boot loader on a custom recovery can hard brick the device. 6.0.4.5 is very old, the latest cwm is 6.0.5.1.
Try flashing that from the boot loader.

But how can get into bootloader?
I have try press Vol Down & Power button, it didn't work,and my computer said “< waiting for device >“。
Is it possible to connect with PC once more?

Try the SD card stock update method
see if this works... this is the best method I have seen to recover the TF701T. Try the manual SD card update method by downloading the correct firmware for your device first from Asus. then see if there is a zip inside of a zip file if so unpack it once. Rename the zip file to T4_SDUPDATE.zip and put the zip firmware file on the root of the SD card and power on or restart your device. it should detect a firmware update. this is the procedure I used when I bought my tablet.
I updated my tablet to the latest stock firmware before I UNLOCKED and installed the latest CWM recovery. Then I booted into stock and shut down then did a full backup of stock, then I flashed custom ROM and latest SuperSU... if you find this helpful, please click the Thanks button below!

Sorry mate, the only way to get into the bootloader is with Power and Vol Down. If that does not work you cannot access fastboot, you cannot access recovery and the tablet is a brick. Only a new mainboard can revive it.

I am not sure, if bootloader located in SPI flash it is not very difficult to reprogram it with external programmer.

From iPhone to IncS - Q about Recovery

Monday i receive my IncS, as im making the switch from a iPhone.
So iv'e been reading in here to learn about Andorid and how to flash custom ROM.
However, I have a question after reading various strings in here, and I'm sorry if it's stupid one...
I will get S-OFF with a XT-Clips, so i can install a custom ROM.
But how about Recovery?
Is it enough to install madmaxx82 4EXTRecovery to be able to boot into Recovery by pressing Power and Vol down?
Or do i have to install RomManager also to be able to boot into Recovery, so i can flash .zip's?
And where is the Recovery image stored?
That's all for now ;-)
If you have a software version lower than 2.30.405,1, you can root and s-off without a xtc clip. You can install the 4EXTRecovery and get into recovery with power and vol down. I'd recommend installing clockworkmod so you can use rom manager with it. Rom manager also lets you boot into recovery,
Do you need to install clockworkmod for booting into Recovery and flash 4EXT Recovery?
Or can you boot into Recovery with a new phone and flash 4EXT?
I guess my question is, if you have a new phone, how do you boot into Recovery to flash madmaxx82 4EXT?
When i boot a new phone with power and vol down and choose Recovery, i get a a red triangle with an exclamation.

If you get a recovery image this is in a zip file, then you simply copy it to the root of your SD card and rename it PG32IMG.zip. Then the next time you boot into bootloader mode, it will find the PG32IMG.zip file and install it.
Then you can get into recovery.

[Q] Bootloop after installing CWM

Hi!
I succesfully managed to update my xperia to latest firmware, root it and unlock bootloader. I used root checker to check and in service menu it says unlocked bootloader: yes
I wanted to try a miui rom so first I decided to install CWM. I found a guide to flash CWM for unlocked bootloader and flashed the boot.img to the phone.
I succesfully managed to reboot and see an orange light. Then it restarts...
When pressing volume+ or volume- when orange light I enter CWM recovery, but then I cannot do anything.
I read to format /cache but here it hangs
What should I do now?
Ok, managed to install MIUI by transfering the miui zip file to sd card and just installing it in CWM recovery. After boot all went well

[Q] can´t flash update.app please help

please help, i can´t flash an original firmware with original recovery.
now i´m on x rom v2.
i can flash roms with twrp.
my goal is to flash my rom 3.3
therefore i want to flash original b609 emui 3 first.
but it doesn´t work.
i think the problem migt be, that i haven´t the right original recovery (and bootloader)?
tried to install b609 original recovery with fastboot.
seemed to be ok, but if i want to enter in recovery mode with pressing vol+ and vol- and power while phone is of, the phone just starts normally. same thing if i do a local update in settings, phone just reboots.
the dload folder with the update,app is in the root of sdcard and internal sdcard too. but tried both ways too..
please help!

Try to put the update.zip in the dload folder. Then go to local update.
That did the trick for me.
By the way: you enter recovery by: volume + and power. Hold the power button untill the phone vibrates. Then release the power button but hold the volume +
Same issue. I rooted and installed TWRP, bootloader is unlocked. My version is L10. I can't seem to get any rom to work though. Tried updating to emui 3.0. boot loop. Tried flashing myrom 3.3. boot loop. Tried fastboot flashing recovery to stock 609 recovery, now recovery won't load. flash back to twrp, and it works. I am going to try this update.zip thing, but please let me know if there is a way to safely get to a new rom. Stuck with emui 2.3 or whatever, is very annoying. b127, and it won't download an ota, says it's already latest version

I am not sure about OTA yet, maybe for OTA it will overwrite recovery and must do the process again.
Well before the android one rom you could not boot into recovery by holding vol + and power.
Unfortunately during the bootloader unlock process you cannot use the volume button.

[SOLVED] Stuck with TWRP - Can't flash OTA package

Hey everyone !
I have a rooted Honor 5C NEM-L51 (European variant) with TWRP custom recovery and, as some of you may know, Nougat update is now available to download using Huawei Firware Finder.
However, a stock recovery is needed in order to get OTA updates and since I couldn't find a stock recovery image by browsing the web, I decided to go back to a full stock ROM.
So I tried to do this the usual way : creating a dload folder, placing the update.app file in it, powering off the phone and back on by pressing simultaneously the volume up, down and power button... but this always lead me right to TWRP, no matter how many times I tried. I restored my phone from soft brick using this method about two months ago with no issue, but now I can't get it to work, even if I release the power button once the phone boots or do any other shady manipulation. Could this have anything to do with the latest TWRP update ?
I also tried to do the "Power on method" by dialing " *#*#2846579#*#*" to go to the project menu and flash the file from here, but it rebooted to TWRP...
I'm at a complete loss here. Can anyone please help me with this ?

Thank you for answering. The problem is, I don't know where to find stock recovery image, all I can find with Huawei Firmware Finder is the full stock ROM. Browsing the web didn't help so far.
Can I flash the whole ROM through ADB ?

Extract the update.app of full stock rom using huawei update extractor. There u will find recovery.img. Extract it and flash using fastboot.

I did that and then tried to install the update through the dialer. It rebooted and I'm stuck on "Your device is booting now..." screen. Can't even turn it off, it reboot automatically to this screen. Seems like there is no recovery at all and it tried to do the update through this inexistant recovery no matter how many times it reboot...
What can I do now ?

Don't do it through the dialer. After flashing the stock recovery, just restart and then try the three button configuration(volume up + volume down + power)

I can't. I am stuck on the "Your device is booting now..." screen. If I turn it off, it automatically turns on again to this screen.
Edit : Nevermind, looks like I didn't press the button correctly. Only the recovery was missing, I finally could boot to system by pressing the power button. Then I reinstalled TWRP with ADB and restored my nandroid backup. Back to the start...
I may have a hint about what went wrong. Extracting the Nougat UPDATE.APP file gave me two recovery files : recovery.img and recovery2.img. I only flashed the first. Any idea why there were two of them ? I am going to try with the FULLOTA-MF file (tried with the FULLOTA-MF-PV file before), or maybe should I try to extract files from the previous update ?
EDIT 2 : Still stuck with TWRP. I extracted several UPDATE.APP files and all have two RECOVERY.IMG files. I tried flashing them both, one after another and then reboot to erecovery, but TWRP is still here. How can I get rid of it and get back to stock recovery please ?

I have flashed several times Twrp recovery on my honor 5c, and i didn't even had to flash the stock recovery to get back to stock rom. I had placed the dload folder with full update in it, and used the 3 button method to flash the full rom. And i was once again in full stock including recovery. Try this. If it doesn't help, just flash the stock recovery. Then type fastboot reboot, let it boot. Then power it off. Now press volume up + power button. Just see which recovery it boots.

As I said, the three buttons method is not working and boot right into TWRP.
Which stock recovery ? There are two of them. Anyway, I tried this again, it led me back to the endless "Your device is booting now..." screen.

Well, I tried with or without uninstalling SuperSU which has an option to try to restore stuck boot and recovery images (which didn't work in my case).
I used adb to reboot into bootloader, from where I flashed either RECOVERY.IMG or RECOVERY.IMG and then RECOVERY2.IMG which I got from Huawei Update Extractor and reboot from fastboot. Then I tried to power off and back on my device by pressing volumes up and power button which led me to TWRP or endless booting screen. Flashing boot image from Update file gave me the same result.

Did that. I even flashed the previous version of the official TWRP beforehand. Still nothing. I even wiped everything from TWRP except internal storage and external SD card and still, the three buttons method led me right back to Meticulus TWRP.
However, I did notice something very strange. If I boot normally by pressing the power button and then, on the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen, press the volume up button to "boot into erecovery to restore my device", it boots into... official TWRP 3.1.0.0 !!! What the hell ?!
Do you have any idea ? This whole situation is so weird...
EDIT : This is just complete nonsense. I even wiped the internal storage and this abomination of TWRP 3.1.0.0 was still there. I really am at a complete loss here. ><
