Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53557529&postcount=2302
Follow the first link and download NABI2RESIZE. Extract that.
Then in second link download hawkcore.zip and run that bat file.
You will need to setup APX driver.

Right I have got it to boot onto recovery and installed the jellybean bootloader, but now it only boots when I go to recovery abd boot as normal, also when I try to charge it when on it freezes the whole tablet and charges very slowly. Also when I am in recovery and I went to wipe Calvin cache and data it comes up "are you sure, no OS installed" and then when I do wipe it it's says successful but also unable to mount e/ data, no file or folder found. I am also unable to mount the sd card? Sorry for the long post but I wanted to get all the problems in, thanks fir all your help

So you have the ICS bootloader installed if you followed what I said above. You have to use the ICS TWRP. Use that version to do the procedure you first started with. Restore version 2.3 system, boot and addon, then before reboot the Jellybean bootloader.
Sorry for slow response out of town this weekend.

Things went from bad to worst, I fixed my market update and had the utlities on the device i needed to i tryed flashing the Neutrino Rom.
After it was done it rebooted and said "failed to boot 2 starting rsd".
So I downloaded RSD Lite and found the unlock SBF which I applied. Now I can get into the FastBoot menu's and go to Android Recovery and try to do the back to stock option, it says it completes then reboots...
Then it just sits and sits and sits on the motorola Dual core logo.
Can someone please help me here. I cant seem to find any of my backups i made with system recovery or rom manager. I also didnt load RomRacers Recovery (which i just now noticed)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
So, did you unlock the bootloader before trying to flash the ROM?
Does it say "Unlocked" at the boot logo now?
Get back into fastboot and flash romracer's recovery and then try to mount the storage and get another rom on there.

i unlocked the bootloader after the update failed (i panicked) and yes it does say unlocked at the top now
Well, you mentioned you can get into fastboot so that's a start. You can try to flash a proper recovery and try to boot into recovery and see if you can mount the storage, or if you have a card reader you can just put a ROM on your sd card and then flash. If you can't get into recovery but you can get into fastboot you can flash a rom that way. You'll have to search for the procedure but I'm almost certain it can be done. If all else fails, you can install the unlocked "Full" SBF through RSD Lite, but it is not really recommended but should work.

Thanks so much. I got radracers on there and reflashed the neutrino rom again. Everything appears to be working. Now to just figure out the rest.
Thanks again.
Look tke the sd card and load the rom and google apps. Then go and fastboot wipe and re install the rom and try to boot honestly it just sounds like you got a corrupted rom
I created this thread because I have looked all over and have been unable to find someone with the exact same issue(s).
I said "sort of" in the title because twrp is working. Ok, so before everyone asks if I have nvflash, the answer is no. I did not have the right version of firmware, and did not try to install it originally. Since I was able to install roms, I figured I was fine...oops.
Twrp is not properly installing roms. More on that later. I am getting to the asus splash screen that says my device is unlocked, but it is stuck there.
My last working rom was the deodexed stock JB rom from craig gomez. I installed it with goo and when I installed that, I lost custom recovery and root, so I decided to go back to a more custom rom so Titanium backup would work. When I did that, I tried also tried again to make nvflash work. I got through the first step, it said it was successful, except I never got the little message in the upper left corner that I was supposed to get. I did not think it was a big deal because my prime would still boot like normal.
Then I installed twrp 2.3.1.0 and I have tried flashing previous restore images. I have tried installing the roms on my sdcard. I cannot get past the asus splash screen.
If I try installing a rom with the force md5 check enabled, it does detect an md5 and then quits.
If I try intalling a rom without the force md5 check, i get an error that says E:Unable to mount '/staging'
When I try installing a backup everything seems to work okay, but then I get the same error E:Unable to mount '/staging'
When I try to install roms through fastboot, I get the following errors:
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
When I try using adb, I do not see any devices.
I tried putting CWM on the prime to see if I could install from that instead, but it would not load after install.
I tried putting an older version of twrp on the prime, to see if that was the issue because I used to have an older version...I could not get that to load either...so I went back to this version.
Any ideas or suggestions would be awesome guys. I am stuck.
I even went to install the naked drivers again, and when I try to flash a different recovery, I get the <waiting for device> text that never goes away.
i'm sort of on the same boat. my prime just keeps booting into twrp recovery no matter what i tried. i'm still hoping to find a solution to this problem.

For me, I can let it try to boot normally, but I get stuck at the splash screen. This device is unlocked.
If I hold down the volume down button, I can go to fastboot, or RCK for recovery...but it does not work properly.

""I also got some errors like md5 file could not be found and could not find the /staging""..but after the reboot it works perfect

That doesn't really help us. If possible, can you edit/delete your message so that the guys that might help do actually help? Don't want them to think this is done.
Can you clarify what the Prime fullwipe is and how you got there?
I do not know if it will help me.
I can't even do the wipe command from fastboot.
Just says <waiting for device>
I have tried the wipe command form the boot screen (the one with fastboot and RCK as options), that did not work properly either.

here is what i did. get into twrp recovery. flashed full prime wipe -> right after that flash the stock jb US version directly dled from Asus -> reboot then you will be stuck at the splash screen (that's a good news). Hold down power + volume down until your prime turns off and restart (keep holding those two keys) until the 3 icons appear then flash w/e rom you want in recovery. It's alive!
In twrp I do not see anything that says Full Prime Wipe. I see something that says wipe. Are those the same? I tried doing a wipe from this screen, but it did not work for me as expected.

no full wipe is a stand alone zip file you have to google and find dl it. put it in your prime then flash it

I am pretty sure I am F***ed.
I tried the prime full wipe. It worked the first time, I think. Then went to install a rom.
I had to do both through external SD in twrp because my adb is not working. Also, fastboot only works to install a recovery. The only version of any recovery I can make work is twrp 2.3.1.0
If I try an older version or CWM, it freezes where I try to go into recovery.
Unable to mount data error.
Unable to mount system error.
Same as before.
I tried using unbricker software I found, but since adb does not work properly, the software does not work properly.
I am going to see if I can work my charm and get them to take back my tablet at best buy for an infinity. I have read about other people pulling it off.
I think as we get closer to xmas my odds improve...UNLESS SOMEONE HAS ANOTHER IDEA??? I would love to try something else.
Eyeballer suggested a chat room channel thing, but most of the people are in europe and I would need to do it in the morning...I do not have time for that, but I may try it.

Download the zip:
http://goo.gl/hiFHB
Goto to Twrp recovery and install the zip..Since it supports microsd u can transfer the zip to microsd.
Goto TWRP -> INSTALL -> CHOOSE EXTERNAL SD -> INSTALL THE ZIP
It will completely wipe the internal storage and then download the official STOCK JB FROM ASUS SITE and follow the same steps to install. Now install the latest twrp recovery using fastboot

Yeah, I should have said I tried that first. I also tried the stock rom from asus. When that didn't work, I tried the stock rom deodexed I found in goo.
There are a bunch of permission errors going on inside my prime. When I go into the mount area, it will not let me mount the data to move it. Or, when I try to copy it over I get a failed message.
Okay. I wiped it again, from twrp.
Then it let me move the file from the ext-sdcard to the sdcard.
I used the prime full wipe.
Then I tried to install the stock rom by transferring it in twrp file manager.
I got the file onto the sdcard, but when i tried to install, it said Failed.
That was it.
I even tried installing the ICS version I got from ASUS. Same thing.
Now, I am going to try to access via unbricker...don't know if it will work, but I am out of ideas.

That is the last rom I successfully used.
I used all sorts of different wipes. I was in twrp and noticed my pc installing the transformer adb driver. So I hopped into adb to see if it would see my device with that driver. (it did, but it wasn't before from the fastboot or adb commands with naked driver).
I tried sideloading the above rom from twrp. It worked.
Thought others might want to know.
I do not know if I can install other roms or not. I am a little scared to try just yet.

You will have the jelly bean bootloader now so as long as you stick to it you should be fine. The only other thing I would suggest is check you version of twrp, you should be running the jelly bean version of it also. And if I am not mistaken, you need to be on ics to use nvflash (although I haven't checked the op recently so I could be wrong) so definitely stay away from that unless you downgrade.
So my tablet won't get past the Asus start up screen, but I did manage to get CWM working, problem is that I have no roms on my internal SD, because I wiped everything trying to fix stuff with WSG Flasher (didn't work).
I've tried everything, but I'm at a total loss here. adb won't work, even after I installed that dreadful Asus PC Suite, WSG FLasher doesn't work because adb doesn't work and
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash somerom.zip
doesn't work either.
I've tried installing dozens of roms and CWM versions through fastboot, but none worked. The only CWM image that did work was called "recover-jb.img" that I got from here, though it's kind of useless if I can't install any roms.
Any suggestions, or should I just throw my tablet out?

I was trying to install CM10, initially installing any CM rom would fail because CWM would say "assert failed, model is not tf201" (It is most certainly a transformer prime, I checked double checked) I edited the updater-script file in the .zip to skip the model check, after that installing the rom went just fine, it would just hang indefinitely on the splash screen.
The tablet is on the jb bootloader, the nvidia logo is in the bottom right corner.

let me get this straight. you can figure out how to change the updater.script but you insist on using cwm? Fastboot twrp to your prime and install a rom zip from your microsd.

Err, I didn't even know there was an alternative to cwm... At any rate, will twrp allow me to transfer files? My microsd is empty due a hardwipe I did.
Yes. TWRP Allows you to also flash zips from micro sd . Altrough I'm not sure can you install it from the situation you're in.

first you need the drivers for fastboot installed to your pc. you can accomplish this by following the advice given here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34477256&postcount=5703
Next you need a working twrp which will help you install a rom from your external microsd card. get that here. and follow his install istructions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34359560&postcount=5497
then I recommend grabbing this rom to install from your microsd using twrp.
AndroWook Prime Hairy Bean v1.4
www.gamerzxtreme.com/AndroWook_Hairy_Bean_v1.4_FINAL_1.zip
you should only need to follow these instructions from there.
Download AndroWook Prime Hairy Bean v1.4 from one of the links above and copy to either root of internal SD or micro SD.
Boot into recovery (TWRP) and wipe cache, dalvik cache and factory reset. You can wipe system as well if you want a total deep clean but do so at your own risk.
Select to install ROM from SD and follow on screen prompts.
When install completed allow 30-60 mins for the system to cache itself upon which time you should now have a nice smooth TP.
Enjoy!
So i have a prime that had ANDROWOOK 2.2 on it with TWRP 2.5. Tablet has been good but was time for Androwook 2.4 so i went to TWRP and tried to do a factory reset and it couldnt mount the SD card or system, so i rebooted back to Androwook and tried doing a factory reset and it would just reboot never reset. So i went back to Androwook and tried format each item to no luck, just kept saying cant mount sd or cant mount cache, or system, etc. I tried to boot back into Androwook and now it just boots right into TWRP. Tried holding down vol and hitting power but still just right to TWRP. I can go to install and it sees the zip file for androwook but alwasy fails. saying
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/blob". "staging")
E:Error executing updater binary in zip .........zip file
Error flashing zip ..... zip file
updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/cache
I can connect via ADB, I tried a ADB sideload but it failed too.
Any ideas, i would be happy just getting it to stock and starting over again, or whatever we can do

So i am able to get it to mount the System, TWRP thinks the system is the ext SD card. so i can run the zip file for the rom and it says its successful and when i reboot the system right back to TWRP, and it has erased the sd card.
Ok, so i was able to ADB in TWRP and say "reboot bootloader" i did this and was able to get the 3 icons in boot and i could select android and it booted into android. When i restart it it goes back to TWRP and i can ADB again and get to android. So i need to know how to just flash everything back to stock or another rom from android or can I? it seems my problem i flashed TWRP and it was not the modded one from androwook. I tried a modded one i found on the forum that was suppose to be for it, i used terminal to do it, and it said it worked but when i restart the same thing happens.

Bump this thread tomorrow mate as I am off out soon and I need you to try some things.
Do not go wiping anything as it looks like you can still get into android at the moment.
Ok Great, i did try terminal a blob file you had in one of your posts but didnt work.
So here is a recap of were i am at:
Tried to reflash the tablet because it was getting slow etc.
Got into a recovery bootloop. etc
So right now everytime i restart it goes to the asus logo and just will restart every 5 secs or so and come back with asus logo.
If i hold down vol down it will boot straight into recovery.
In recovery it will not mount ext drive. i was able to see it once and flashed the zip file i had and didnt work.
if i ADB and type adb restart bootloader, it will restart to the 3 icons of recovery, android, wipe data.
I can also do fastboot i believe.
I can then pick android and it boots up to my android will all my apps and data still there.
I tried to terminal the blob recovery you had posted an it said it worked, but when i restarted it went to the same asus logo over and over.
that is about where i am at now.

I haven't forgotten about you. I just had a new device and have been messing with it all day.
The problem with the mounting normally occurs when you flash an incompatible twrp onto the wrong bootloader.
Unfortunately your first post and some of your other info is all over the place.
Lets start by going into TWRP and typing adb reboot bootloader and tell me the version number up the top left of the screen.
It will start with a 10.
10.6.1.8-20130225. A03
Twrp. 2.5.0.0
Android build. Androwook prime hairy bean v2.2

I don't think I ever supplied a Twrp 2.5 until hairybean 2.31 so it looks like you flashed that yourself and flashed the wrong version.
First this I would try is flashing the twrp from the following link in fastboot and see if you can get a working version of twrp back on there that can mount properly.

Try the fix for brick type 1a and see if you can get it to boot normally.

OK follow the steps but instead of flashing the stock firmware If lashed the recovery blob you had suggested early. And it worked. So now I can boot into the modified twrp. So now can I just flash your ROM?
I got out of the phone mod life about a year ago..
but one of my friends is going through some financial stress and needs a phone.. i had a Sprint M9 sitting here for about a year.. So i decided i'd try to unlock it so he could use it.
Needless to say i'm a little rusty and a lot of things have changed
I asked Stifilz to help with the unlock and he directed me to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-one-m9/general/nv-unlock-sim-t3314755
I needed to get the MSL, so I attempted the root following this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/guide-root-install-twrp-htc-one-m9-t3061133
Everything went smoothly with the instructions.. only problem is that I am now stuck in a bootloop of the HTC boot screen with the red writing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
firmware? boot.img? new rom?
Hi.. phone has been sitting down collecting dust since the last post.. a friend needs a phone so I'm trying to get it working to give it away.. anyone have any solutions for this?
I am willing to pay to get this resolved.
Hold power button and volume down button at the same time and boot to recovery. Can you get into twrp recovery?

Hi? I'm in same situation. From stock, I didn't follow any particular tutorial. I used my knowledge from HTC m8. I unlocked bootloader, flashed latest twrp for m9, flashed latest supersu zip. And that's it. Boot loop afterwards. I flashed supersu via OTG Drive. Could that be an issue? Phone is still S-ON
UPDATE: I some how wiped cache, dalvich, data and system partition in twrp now it says I have no OS installed. I think I wasn't supposed to wipe system partition? How to get back to phone plz? Could you Point me to a restore file or stock HTC file I can restore with adb or twrp? I didn't make a backup before I started the whole thing.
Grab stock rooted rom from development thread n flash that. Should be good after that

yes. i got it fixed. open the zip file of the ROM you were trying to flash, look for the boot.img file and flash it with adb. problem is with the boot image of stock rom. it somehow doesnt boot propely after root
