Yes, you have to unlock the bootloader first before you can install CWM. What you are seeing now is the stock recovery.
Note: To access the stock recovery, all you need to do is press both volume buttons (up & down) at the same time when you see the "triangle".

[Q] Is it bricked or not?? Please Help!

I have 2 Primes...both were with stock Roms, one with the latest .18 update and the other one with the .15 update.
I successfully unlocked and flashed the 1st one with the latest Energy Rom using Urkel's fresh root.
However when I followed the same procedure on the other Prime, Urkel's fresh root said that it flashed recovery successfully but when I tried to enter Recovery, NOTHING HAPPENED. So I rebooted, pressed "wipe data", nothing happened again. I rebooted again and..my Prime hangs on the 1st screen, the Asus Perfection Screen with the Nvidia Logo at the bottom right.
I cannot enter the recovery menu anymore. Is it bricked?? I didn't use NvFlash.
Is there any way I can fix it?? Please help, this was Present for my little sister..and it really sux now!!
P.S. After I installed the TWRP using Urkel's fresh root I booted 2x fine. It was after I tried to "wipe data" that I got stuck @ the boot screen. For some reason I couldn't access TWRP even though Urkel's Fresh Root said it had been successfully installed.
Got an error code like : Unrecoverable Bootloader? 0x00000000''0''
Last zero between the " " could be this : (0/4/8) (without the " ")
So yes, your only way is to RMA , they had to replace te motherboard of my prime (But for free =D, i dunno why)

Are you getting any icons at all when you hold down power and volume down for 10 seconds once off? USB icon, wipe etc?
No guys, I'm just stuck @ the 1st splash screen, I can only get APX mode, nothing else!
.......It just pisses me off though..that..it could be so easily bricked..just unlocking and trying to install a recovery bricking it...ridiculous......

[Q] PLEASE help me Bootloader Problem

Hi,I have a transformer prime which was running on Energy Rom ICS 4.1.
Yesterday I thought of updating it to Energy JB rom.
The post said it needs updated bootloader as well so I downloaded the bootloader package (TWRP 2.5) but did not know that it formats the tablet completely.
So I flashed it but when it restarted the tab I saw Asus logo & blue progress bar & on top left it said formatting internal storage so I forced shutdown the tab by keeping power key pressed.
But now I am unable to install any ICS rom as it flashes the rom but gets stuck on the boot animation.
I tried installing Energy JB & Androwook JB rom but has lot of force close issues, camera doesnt work.
I tried installing TWRP 2.5 using fastboot but my laptop says usb device not recognised.
Downloaded naked universal usb driver but dont know what to do with them as there is no setup (exe or msi) file in that zip.
I even tried flashing older ics version of bootloader & repeated the whole procedure but doesnt help.
PLEASE HELP ME OUT. I CANNOT POST IN THE ENERGY ROM'S POST AS IT DOESNT ALLOW ME

You messed up by forcing shutdown but I think you know that now..
The only thing I can suggest is if you can still use TWRP then first go to wipe menu and format data, wipe system, wipe dalvik and then wipe cache.
Now try to install your rom.
If this still does not work then try getting the downgrade.zip from the hairybean thread and flashing it in twrp and then restarting and letting it fill all the blue line this time.
At this point you should be able to install a 4.1.1 rom so just try Hairybean 1.51 for now doing all the same wipes as before.
If this works then go and follow the same Energy rom instructions before but without killing the install.
Thanks but I have allready tried that
Hi, I have already tried downgrading bootloader from both Energy Rom thread as well as Androwook thread.
TWRP is still working on my tab & when I flashed downgrade.zip from Hairybean thread,it says successful but does'nt ask for restart,even after rebooting from twrp menu,it again restarts into twrp & i tried androwook ics rom but gets stuck on bootanimation same as Energy Ics based rom.
Any advice????

First of all please stop flashing things. You are mentioning ICS and Jellybean and the new bootloader and different versions of TWRP that are only compatible with certain bootloaders. You will brick it if you are not careful if you haven't already.
Power off and then hold down the power button and volume down the same time. You should get into the bootloader menu with icons.
At the top left of the screen there should be some writing with a long number.
Tell me what that number is please and also tell me what icons are on the screen.

Hi, every time I switch on my tablet now, it goes into TWRP by default, even on pressing power + volume down buttons it does not show me any icons but straightaway boots into TWRP, I tried installing Androwooks JB Rom (which was buggy before but atleast working), but it again reboots into TWRP recovery by default, I did all the wiping before installing as well.
When I power on my tab, all I see is ASUS logo in middle & on top left it says "device is unlocked", then straight into TWRP recovery.
I think I have screwed up big time.
Please help

[Q] Issues with Recovery - Post Moonshine S-Off

Okay so I've just freshly unlocked my bootloader, and then achieved s-off via the moonshine method. I've noticed that when I boot into the bootloader, and select recovery, it takes me to a black screen with a phone and the red triangle exclamation mark. Then it just sits there. If I press vol. down and power again, the capacitive buttons just flash until i take my fingers off the vol. down or power key. If I hold vol. up and power then it finally randomly takes me to the recovery screen. The screen says Android system recovery <3e> and there are only options for reboot, apply from sd/phone/cache, wipe data, and wipe cache. Also in the center in yellow text it says Device_CW_Install: No CW Files. Skip cs installation.
I'm new to rooting (on this device) and am curious if I can just flash TWRP or another recovery instead???
Yes just flash twrp as it is the only custom recovery that works correctly with the EvoLTE

Sweet, I just installed TWRP via GooManager and it was fixed in a jiff! Backed up my device and now I'm about to dive into some ROM's. Any suggestions? I was looking at the Dirty Unicorn ROM.
