Issue with installing custom recovery - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I am running jelly bean and have an unlocked bootloader. Never been rooted either. I'm trying to install twrp but can't seem to get past the part where I put it into fasboot. I boot into the bootloader and go over to the USB symbol and select it. I then go to adb and try to run the command to install twrp and it can't find my prime. I can get adb to work fine when my prime is running normally. I've tried different drivers and USB ports but still can't get to work. Any suggestions?

[Q] Flashed ICS 4.0.3 aosp now stuck

Alright so i flashed this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1418721
on my evo 3D with hboot 1.5 s-on using adb commands:
adb reboot bootloader
then
fastboot boot recovery.img
then i flashed the rom, now the problem is that when i plug in my phone to my computer it trys to install mtp usb divice but it doesnt find any drivers for it. my adb commands no longer work it always gives me
error: device not found
fastboot commands do the same.
i have tryed to reinstall htc sync still no good. and i have tryed to install another kernal and rom, no good.
i have tryed flashimg gui to flash a kernel then flash another rom, no good.
if anyone could tell me how to use fastboot again that would be great i need to flash a kernel trough fastboot, the recovery
Just reboot it in recovery and then use adb. That's what I do if I feel like flashing a new version of an ics rom.
Problem your encountering is the lack of drivers from HTC for ICS I believe. None the less, the method I stated above will work.

Moving to Q&A
Just manually boot into bootloader then use fastboot commands to get into recovery. Didn't look which Rom you flashed but 2 if the Ics rims native USB doesn't work.

I fought for days with my fastboot, and drove several folks a bit crazy with my incessant problems. What was eventually figured out to be my problem was that I had easytether running in the background, and it was messing with the fastboot/adb connection. Make sure you dont have anything extra running that might be trying to access your usb ports or your phone while trying to use fastboot. I learned the hard way. Also you might want to try uninstalling htcsync, and installing just the htc drivers, and turning off any antivirus you have running as well as any firewall. hope maybe this helps!
I tried [ROM][AOSP] Evervolv-ICS 2.1.0p6 [IML74K] 01/06/2011 and it was not booting on my end, I have 1.5 Unlocked and the only ones that work on my end are

I think Im bricked

I went to OTA update MeanRom from 3.1 to 3.2 and after the rom install and reboot my phone kept rebooting, I waited for about 45 minutes just make sure it wasnt going to take.
I then used fastboot to install my last recovery however, the recovery install froze at installing /system for over an hour. I had no choice but to try and reboot as none of the buttons worked. I am now stuck at the HTC screen and can not get into fastboot or phone.
I've tried searching for a solution for a day and still have had no luck. Cant run RUU as it has a USB error which I expected as the phone never boots.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am/was on latest radio/firmware/s-off.

I'm confused...You were flashing a recovery from fastboot? Or were you doing a nandroid restore? You tried holding volume down + power to get into the bootloader right?

Did you do the restore from recovery (TWRP) or did you use fastboot? I ask because fastboot isn't typically used to restore from a nandroid backup, so just trying to understand your description. Do you have adb on your pc?

Gotcha...then this is very strange. Once you have adb installed, try plugging the phone into your pc, power it on and when it's at the HTC screen try the "adb reboot recovery" command and see if that gets you into TWRP. I've never tried using adb from that screen so not sure if the phone is capable of communicating at that point, but worth a shot...

That's what I was afraid of...the only other thing I can think of is to maybe try flashing a new boot image, but you may have the same problem you had with adb in not being able to communicate with the phone. What you would need to do is pull the boot.img file out of the MeanROM zip, put it somewhere on your PC, then with your phone plugged in open the command prompt and type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot <path_to_boot_img>boot.img
It's basically the same process as installing a new kernel on the new hboot version, which is outlined here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794867
Typically you have to be in the bootloader for this, but it's worth a try from the HTC screen. I've been successful with the fastboot command when adb does not see the device, so may work in this case as well. If not, then I'm out of ideas. Since you can't get to the bootloader, you should be able to take it into sprint or best buy without them knowing you tampered with it. Just tell them you took the latest OTA and the battery died during the installation or something. Hopefully they will exchange it, but you run the risk of getting one with the new hboot and losing S-OFF Better than no phone at all though, I suppose...
Not too sure if u have a recovery installed but regardless you should be able to simulate a battery pull by holding power button for 10 seconds or until the captive button lights flash 12 times I think. When the phone powers down press and hold volume down only and you should boot into boot loader. From here you should have a better chance of using adb or fastboot or recovery if you have twrp installed. If you can get to boot loader you have options especially since your s-off.
Good luck man

Ok I was able to get into bootloader and tried to flash MeanRom after wiping cache/dalvik/factory reset/system three times each with a new download of MeanRom and it said it flashed successfully. I rebooted and it keeps getting almost to setup then reboots. Should I try an RUU again? If so what version should I use?
Bootloader says:

That's good you can get into the bootloader, as previous poster said, you have a lot more options. I would save RUU as a last resort. See if you can flash a different ROM, like viper 4g or clean ROM. Or maybe an older version of mean ROM.
Sent from my EVO LTE
That's odd that after a full wipe mean ROM won't boot. Wasn't there issues with mean ROM if your recovery wasn't up to date. I would do a full wipe and try to restore a nandroid. Someone with more knowledge than me can defo help you . You can access bootloder, you have a recovery installed so you should be fine.

[Q] How do I fix my wife's HTC one x+ ?

So I was trying to root/rom flash my wife's X+ to the Viper rom. I unlocked the bootloader from HTC, downloaded the all-in-one app, but it only had CWM on it, so I flashed CWM, pushed SU and installed SU with CWM, everything was fine. \
Loaded Viper rom on to internal memory, rebooted into CWM, installed Viper rom with full wipe. Phone rebooted, got Viper start up screen, booted to Viper lock screen, but when I unlock it, it shows a white screen with HTC on it, and wont let me get into anything. If I hold the home button, it says set up stopped responding, wait or close. I then reboot and all I get is a black screen with the battery, wrong time, and no signal at the top and then it resets it's self after about 2-3 mins. I cant get into the memory card or debugging before it reboots. What can I do to get the phone back functioning?
1. What method did you use to try to root? see above
2. Do have twrp or cwm installed? If so can you boot to recovery? CWM, yes
3. Can you boot to bootloader? Yes
4. What software version is phone on? 4.1.1
4. Does you pc recognize the phone when plugged in?
5. Does the phone boot at all? Yes
6. Can still get to fastboot? Yes
Do you flash boot.img?

If you've updated the phone to the new firmware ( AT&T/Telus) the only roms you can flash are the one with new base.

I assume you wiped data if you got the setup screen?
As @garmig said, if you updated the firmware and are on the latest HBOOT, you won't be able to flash ViperXL+ until I update it to the latest build. Did you take the OTA update?

yes, i wipped all data, cache, etc.
if that was the update that came out about a week or so ago, then yes i remember her saying something about an update from ATT.. How can I get another rom on there to flash if i cant get into ADB and debugging mode? ive tried the side load in CWM but i cant get it to connect, and the phone just sits there waiting.
I've always flashed galaxys and such, so im use to being able to remove the memory card and put what ever i needed on with a card reader. I just got my HTC One and now she wanted her OneX+ flashed for more options. Guess I didnt read close enough about the update.. and of course she is mad because she doesnt have a working phone at the moment, lol, GO ME!!!

You can use the RUU from here keeping in mind that it will wipe your phones internal memory COMPLETELY!
or you could flash this rooted and deodexed version from here

First thing's first, what hboot version are you on? you can see that in the booloader screen. Mine is 1.32.0000 which is the previous version.
Anyways, ADB works in TWRP. I'm running 2.4.4.0 and I noticed it can take up to 30 seconds for it to start. You may want to start with that version: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/evitareul
Once in TWRP, you can either use "adb push" or "adb sideload":
ADB Push:
Run "adb devices" until your serial # shows up
run "adb push c:\somefolder\rom.zip /sdcard/" to push the rom zip to your phone's sdcard. It can take up to 10 mins to transfer it this way. You can use one of these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235248
ADB Sideload:
While in TWRP, select Advanced then ADB Sideload
Type "adb sideload c:\somefolder\rom.zip"
Once flashed, reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img then reboot your phone.

Yes, the first is an .exe and can be run from Windows. However, you may need to flash stock recovery( which can be found here ) first.

i should be home in about 3 or 4 hours though, and i will try a few things and let you guys know the status. I appreciate all the help so far, hope i can get it back up and running asap!
before going back to stock, i would flash a different rom mate. latest viper as a known issue where it leaves you stuck at that very point I'm sure while its stuck on the htc screen you should be able to connect it to your pc and drag a new rom across, if not flash TWRP 2.4.4.0 and "sideload" or "push" your rom. Trust me theres no need to go back to stock.

[Q] Sigh, I admit defeat.

I unfortunately have fallen victim to inexperience. I thought I could figure this out again, but it's been too long since I've rooted anything.
I did the rumrunner unlock, and that all went well. I then downloaded the viper rom, and from there my progress stopped.
Followed instructions for rumrunner, all worked, ended up on the bootloader screen.
Went and downloaded the Viper rom.
Tried to find my phone through my PC, but it wasn't available. So I used the bootloader menu to select recovery, as the directions VIA the Viper how-to.
The phone turned off, and ended up in a screen with a red triangle screen and wouldn't respond at all. No buttons worked, holding down any of them did nothing but make the bottom 3 icons flash.
So I unplugged my phone from the computer, and it turns on now, but to a normal home screen. I cannot figure out how to get back into the bootloader screen.
I did put the extracted Viper rom file into the download folder in my DNA, but I haven't been able to get past the issue of entering recovery to start wiping material.
You went to the stock Android recovery, which tells me you need to install a custom recovery. Find the threads for either Philz CWM Advanced or TWRP 2.6.3 beta and follow those directions, although you're going to need to set up ADB and make sure it's working. You won't be able to install a custom recovery without your computer recognizing your phone in fastboot mode.

After some work last night, I finally got it. Research through this forum is invaluable!

red triangle with exclamation point after twrp flash

So I've tried researching this slight issue and I have seen a lot of different solutions but none of them apply to my particular problem. My phone works just fine when booted regularly and charges just fine. The only time I'm having an issue is if I boot into recovery. I just installed twrp 2.7.0.3 and tried to reboot in order to flash supersu. No dice. I've tried rebooting into fastboot and reflashing and I've tried the M8 toolkit. Reflashing works, but still won't boot to recovery and the toolkit just hangs trying to flash the file. I think that's where my issue lies. I waited 19 minutes and eventually closed the program and just rebooted. I'm thinking this caused an issue and corrupted my recovery but i figured reflashing would solve this.
I was wondering if someone could clarify this for me, in which i'll just sit tight and wait until an ruu releases and stick with stock sense. The phone works perfectly so I can deal for a little while. I was just hoping to move to the GPe rom and get xposed running on it.
Thanks yall. I'll keep searching until I have to go to work and if I find a solution before anyone responds I'll update this post so it can be locked.

I waited 19 minutes and eventually closed the program and just rebooted. I'm thinking this caused an issue and corrupted my recovery but i figured reflashing would solve this.
I was wondering if someone could clarify this for me, in which i'll just sit tight and wait until an ruu releases and stick with stock sense. The phone works perfectly so I can deal for a little while. I was just hoping to move to the GPe rom and get xposed running on it.
Thanks yall. I'll keep searching until I have to go to work and if I find a solution before anyone responds I'll update this post so it can be locked.

Seems like every problem in here is when someone uses a toolkit. IMO it is easier just to use the commands. There is nothing wrong with twrp as most people including myself are using it flawlessly. Download fresh copy of twrp. Make sure you get .img file, not .zip. Boot your phone, plug in and type "adb reboot bootloader" it will reboot to fastboot, if not, you do not have newest adb drivers, get this fixed before moving on. once in bootloader type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" this will just reboot your boot loader and let you know fastboot is working. If not fix this. next move to your directory with twrp and type "fastboot flash recovery twrp***.img" should only take 5 seconds. next type fastboot reboot to make sure system is still booting. Then type "adb reboot recovery" and it should go to twrp. Make sure you are getting the UL_CA twrp and not the whl. whl is for sprint and will not work. let me know. UL_CA is not available on official site. search the xda forums for it.
I actually tried the commands first and couldn't get it that's why I tried the toolkit. That's actually what ended up working for me though, but at least I'm good to go! I should have updated this a few days ago but forgot lol this thread can be locked if a mod wants to. Thanks all

definitely 'fastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.25.5-m8.img'
It'll apply itself right over your current recovery no problem :good:
