When ur phone is connected to PC while in recovery...try "adb devices" command that will show whether ur device has been recognized or not...If it's recognized try adb sideload or adb push.....
And for mounting the partition that will not work on one X+ ...the explanation for that is given herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002156

awesome guys i did not know i had to be in Hboot. thanks alot guys! im gonna try it.
ok guys i made progress. adb detected my phone. it seems i pushed boot into sdcard because the ls command shows boot.img inside twrp in sdcard. but apparently recovery installs stuff that are zips. anyway i can install boot thats an img file? or does it have to be zip. im confused. pls help.
many thanks
ok guys its all done, thanks alot for all your help. i figured out how it all works. amazing how it becomes common sense later somehow!

Hi everyone,
Well I'm in that freak out stage.... where I am sure some of you have been.
Heres my issue...
I have a transformer prime that;
I just unrooted using Vipermod
Then did a factory reset
Now I am stuck in CWM recovery
I attempted to do a restore but after it gets done it brings me back into the recovery
I attempted to ADB but the command prompt opens and closes right away ( I assume from not being in USB debugging, which I cant get into without a rom)
I have no rom's currently downloaded into the prime as I just wiped everything in there as well.
Please i'll gladly pay $5 to anyone who can fix this without it breaking more (hard bricking if I havent already done so)
AHHH please guys help, I'm afraid it will run out of battery soon then I'll be royally screwedddd
anyone?
are you on windows 7?
yes windows 7 professional sp 1 32bit . to reiterate I am stuck in Clockwork mod Recovery without root, and with no roms on the internal SD. I have access to one restore that works but after it completes it reboots back in recovery.

Turn on your tablet, let it boot into CWM.
Open cmd, cd to the directory with adb (for example cd C:\android), then copy this line of text below and right click > paste in the command prompt window.
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 count=13
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That should get you out of CWM into Android, assuming your restore works fine.
Attempted and got error device not found.
I have uninstalled the transformer drivers and also installed the universal drivers as said in other threads.
I assume to use ADB i need usb debugging on for it to read??
My issue is I cant get into any rom so turning on usb debugging is a no go.
can i fastboot push a rom to the internal sd card or better yet can i install a rom from the external SD card via Clockwork mod recovery?

Save the file and then try running the adb command I gave again.
Says error device not found. I appreciate the help keep it coming it's keeping my hope alive. I really hope this isnt truly hard bricked.
I cant get ADB to read the transformer prime. When I type adb devices nothing shows up . it starts the daemon successfully but then doesn't show the tfp.
Thank you again for helping. I am honestly going to pay who ever finds the true fix. This stress sucks

Try the instructions here. Try using this only as a last-ditch resort.
it wont shut off either... i tried both of the above mentions and cant get adb to recognize the prime
Attempted both and stuck at recovery loop without root. any more ideas? is it possible to flash rom from external sd? or is there a recovery I could fastboot rhat has this feature?
Attempted both and neither work. I need to somehow get usb debugging enabled while in clockwork mod. Or figure out a way to install a rom via external SD card while in CWM. Any more help is appreciated!

No adb debugging is needed in cwm. Even without any ROM installed. Recovery is different from Android.
Try to long press power (at least ten seconds) to hard reboot, and see if it changes something in device detection.
Did a hard reset and it boots me back into Recovery.
I was able to get a new rom into the internal SD via the emergency/backup.zip method but after it completes and I do a reboot it just boots right back into recovery again.
Any help please is apprecaited.

Oh joy. This one is a spaghetti western in the making.
Okay. Question first : Does Windows 7 RECOGNISE the device in any way shape or form. To find out if this can be done, you need to power up the device and hold the power and volume down buttons, DO NOT press volume up when it suggests a kernel image. If you get three icons, hit vol down once and up once, then plug the USB cable into the PC and the tablet.
If it sees "Something", you've a chance. Download the naked universal USB driver from the dev forum, install it and have your device pick it up on the windows computer. I'm assuming from your comments that you've GOT a working fastboot and adb so I'm going to skip the instructions on that.
If you do have a something, and it's recognised, hit fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot, if it reboots of it's own accord at this point, you can confirm you have working ADB and Fastboot access. From there you've a few choices. My personal preference would be to ADB push a rom down -after- doing a rebuild of the recovery image via fastboot (I really recommend TWRP for this bit).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26093546#post26093546 - This post here which I wrote will explain how to flash TWRP from fastboot access, presuming you can get it. Once that step is done, wipe EVERYTHING from TWRP, and I mean the whole nine yards, including /system. Raze the memory down to only things it can't actually nuke. Once that's done, reboot to fastboot protocol, get a ROM pushed via ADB and install from inside TWRP.
That -should- get you back in business. Though judging by the tangle you're in, I make no promises.
ADB wont recognize the device. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers about 5 times.
It wont boot into fastboot - just goes directly into Clockwork Mod recovery. Even while holding power and volume down text comes up that says looking for asus recovery. then says clockwork recovery and boots directly into that.
The only way I can get anything into the internal SD card is with MasterZen88's Emergency script tool that puts any 1 file into the internal SD card as backup.zip
It was unrooted prior to all of this as well.
*cringe*
If ADB isn't working -at all- and it's not using the naked USB drivers to get you any kind of workable access. You're starting to smell very much like a hard brick scenario. I'm honestly not sure if there's a way out of that. A lot of the solutions for unbricking absolutely require that the device is able to talk to the outside world, if it's not and the ADB shell is essentially telling you it's talking to dead air, you're in a world of pain.
It's a long shot but it may be worth speaking to ASUS to see if they are willing to, for a fee, restore your tablet to factory settings. Though I can't imagine that will be cheap or simple. If you are able to get an RMA or a means of getting ASUS to poke it, make sure to take photos. Their techies appear to have the worst case of butterfingers in the world.
Go over Pandaball's suggestion, because that's really the last step I can think of before contacting ASUS
Flashed the Broccoli nightly rom I can no longer boot or get back into CWM. Computer cannot start the device. Can someone please help me? Tried all the tools and methods. It won't work unless I can get the device to start when connected to my computer.
RIght now when I press Vol Up and power, it brings me to cold boot linux. Cannot select anything or do anything. When connected to comp, it says device cannot start Code 10. Don't know what else to do. Help please
Looks like you're having an issue similar to mine. You'll need to setup ADB and push another rom to your Prime.
Can you get into recovery?

This thing is completely frozen no matter what. I can power off and on but that's about it. The device won't start according to windows. I'm praying I won't have to RMA or something.
You shouldn't be getting that screen pressing vol up and power.....that should be vol down and power, then doing nothing.

Hi,
where it says press down to change mode you should be able to highlight the middle icon. If so that is fastboot and you have a chance.
I had a very bricked Prime and it only got that far. Then I followed this post.
You must download the fastboot and adb from the links given. I had some from elsewhere and they didn't work so well.
Also, I am not an Android hacker and I think that the dd command is somehow dangerous. At the end of the day, on my machine, I'm back with AndroWook and latest Motley kernel
Best of luck.

Thanks let me try now. I hope it works. How did you get the computer to recognize the prime? Do I need to enable asus sync?

So when your device turns on its in a recovery loop right? You try to reboot and it goes right back to recovery?
It's ok don't worry, we will get it fixed. If that's what your problem is its referred to brick 1a in the unbrick your prime sticky thread.
We just need to setup ADB if you haven't already, and run one command. PM me if you need some help and ill try my best to get you through it or remotely connect to your computer to help you.
I highly suggest TWRP recovery after you get rebooted.

This is what I did while in CWM. Below is a copy of an insert from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24923189#post24923189
Anyhow, so after you have that version installed:
1. Download "ROOTED 9.4.2.21 CWM compatible signed US version"
d - h . s t / r 4 4 -> WITH NO SPACE! (This is from the Primeval: The STOCK stock rom) Thread.
2. EXTRACT IT to the same directory where your ADB is! We only need the BLOBFILE from that zip folder!
3. Once you have the files extracted just run the following on your Command line:
adb push blobfile /sdcard/ ---> Its going to look like its not doing
nothing but dont worry its doing it in the background after 401 or some
seconds the command line will returned to you with a message like this:
1275kb, dadadada...
4. VERY IMPORTANT!: enter:
adb shell
dd if=/sdcard/blobfile of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
(Same as the previews step it will take forever but it will work dude!)
5. DONE! at least this is what worked for me man!
Im so happy now my Asus is freaking Brand NEw again! i was JUST about to through this garbage away but im so happy "dklue" gave me the BLOB concept idea! heheheh i guess i learned something new now..
the thing is the computer is not picking it up i tried diffrent drivers and still nothing i try doing ADB Shell device not found in order to do some commands i have to have it mount and thats the problem what ever i do wont move nothing so basicly is still on CWM only reboot and back again to CWM
Hold power and vol down to boot into CWM. Then you can do the blobfile push. It worked for me
Hello being the noob i am i cannot restore any roms to my prime i accedntally wiped the whole internal partition and currently only have twrp installed it is version 2.2.0 i cant seem to get it to show in windows nor do i know the command in twrp for the sd card as i have a rom on there but it wont let me access it. im pulling my hair out and at the moment my prime wont swich off as it just keeps turning itself on and going to the ee pad logo and stopping there

Still trying to fix this I now have no recovery and just get the two icons wipe data and fast boot or it just keeps trying to load a Rom that isn't there so it sticks on the main logo screen if I could get it to show in windows that would be great but now I have no recovery I'm not sure how to even get it to install anything once I do !

As long as you have the fastboot logo, there should be hope. First, you will need to do whatever you can to get your computer to recognize fastboot mode. In order to do this, click on the fastboot icon on your prime and then plug your usb into your pc. What does windows say? Is the device showing in the windows device manager?

It shows up but then says failed to install driver will try it on different pc,s see if it works thanks for the replies seems fairly easy
Ive found on my device that it sometimes requests two different drivers. One for adb/fastboot, and one for mtp. I just cancel the one for mtp as they are not in the naked driver set, and windows then detects another different device.

Okay, you're half way home! The reason why nothing shows in adb is because fastboot and adb are two completely different interfaces. When in fastboot, your device will be expecting the fastboot command only.
Now what you will have to do is find a recovery that is in the blob format. Cwm would probably be okay. Twrp would be good, however the new version requires the nvflash version of the bootloader.
Once you find the blob of the recovery you want, place this in the same folder as the file fastboot.exe
It should be in the same place as adb. If not, place the blob somewhere easy to remember.
Then in a command prompt, type
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery blobfilename
If you placed the blob in the same place as fastboot, then the above will be the blob filename, or better would be to include the path as well.

hi guys and girls happy to report that thanks to the community my prime is aliiiive !!! used a utility off here called knives and forks to install adb and then downloaded fast boot and extracted to my users directory then used the fast boot command to push the blob to the prime into recovery then used adb push adb push virtuous_prime_s_9.4.2.21_v1.zip /sdcard/ and installed virtuous to get it running then it all shows up thankyou to everyone so happy took all of five minutes lol. my trip to london for 3 hours will be less boring now !!!:laugh::highfive:
I can still boot to CWM recovery. When I connect it to my PC, HTC sync starts and acts like it's going to connect, but then doesn't. It doesn't show up in My Computer, but it would appear the driver is installed correctly.
On my Mac, again HTC sync manager starts and it acts like it's going to do something but does nothing.
If I put it in sideload mode, adb tells me there are no connected devices. I am super scared I bricked my phone
All the stuff I'm finding with google and xda forum searches are coming up only with solutions that require me to be able to copy files to the device. That's exactly what I can't do.

Thank you for your reply, however I am not able to do that. ./adb devices -l says I don't have any attached devices. When I try to run ./adb push arhd.zip /data/media I get "error: device not found". This is from fastboot USB and from CWM.
edit: I just tried to do the sideload thing again, and that worked. So, for the record, go into fastboot USB and run ./fastboot erase cache then boot into CWM and install from sideload.
I had a similar thing happen to me. Just did something without paying attention and boom I wiped the entire phone in recovery. The only fix I found that worked was ordering a USB OTG cable from Amazon (it was only like $5 w/ shipping) and using that to push files to the phone. Or try running the RUU. I heard that worked for some. But it happened to me before it was released and in on Windows 8 so even after it's release I couldn't run it on my laptop

@BenDroid1
You can write the custom recovery to your recovery partition using dd in an android terminal emulator from the play store. You would need to know which partition holds your recovery.
For MY device (your partition is different) it would be as followed in the terminal emulator:
Code:
su
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/customrecovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
/dev/block/mmcblk0p20 is the partition that holds my recovery on my device - yours will be different!
You can also use this method for the boot.img towards the boot partition as well as data to data partition, and so forth.
If you have CWM and you were smart enough to create a backup of your device, then I would write the custom recovery to your recovery partition, boot in to CWM, and restore your device with your backup. Then, reboot, plug device in to your computer, allow the computer to reinstall the drivers and hopefully at this point you should be able to establish connection with adb/fastboot again.

Because right here according to your quote you mentioned that you resetted your device, lost connection to your adb. Only time you can use ADB is when your phone is running. Only way you can confirm if you lost connection with ADB is if your phone is up and running, you open up command window on pc, then run 'adb devices' and if nothing returns then you have no connection. Otherwise, there is no way to confirm if you lost connection to it. So by your quote above, you made it sound like you got around your bootloop problem but could not connect with using ADB and no longer had CWM on your device.
Try to be more clear next time lol.
Have you tried using fastboot instead of ADB?

Your phone has a bootloader. You need to access your bootloader, select fastboot, plug your device in your pc, open up command window, then type 'fastboot devices'.
If you get your device serial number returned back to you then you have connection. If it returns blank, then you do not have connection which at this point I will not be able to help you.
