recoveryinstaller work for me ,,good thankssssssss
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] PatrickVogeli:
It has worked here! I installed your installer (lol), then the transformer boot to recovery app and booted into CWM just fine. From there I first took a nandroid backup and then installed the Prime ROM, all sems to work well so far. Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] meltedmoops999:
I did the RecoveryInstaller app and it looked like it flashed something, then just rebooted. what do i do next? Thanks for any help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Reeonimus:
Hold the volume down key while booting and you will be prompted to then press volume up to enter recovery. Back up your ROM, download a new one and enjoy!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] nEUTRon666:
Ok this all confuses me a bit, and i think some others too. I'm not new to flashing and custom rom's but brand new to PAD related stuff. Please clear things up a bit, please, just correct me if i'm wrong:

1. Root is done via an exploit, so future OTA Updates should still work !?

2. Flashing Recovery via the "Recovery Installer" in this thread only flashes Recovery (at least i only see a recovery blob in the .apk file) !?

3. Starting from this point i can do a nandroid Backup of my stock rom and go back to it, just in case !?

4. I can flash custom rom's afterwards !?

Am i able to completely go back to stock (unroot) somehow ?

Thanks.

guys, I`ve got a little problem. I rooted my Asus Transformer through Razorclaw. It`s ok. Then I installed RecoveryInstaller.apk and got ClockworkMod Recovery. It works also. But after i enter into recovery and try to make a backup, I get an error message - can`t mount /sdcard. I tried to mount in manually, but it doesn`t work. The same with trying to wipe dalvik cache, I get a message - unknown volume for path {/sd-ext}. So, I can`t flash any rom, cause recovery isn`t able to mount sdcard. Did anyone strike on the situation like this one? What have I done wrong? Tnanks in advance for any help!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] drnizeguy:
Did you put in a microSD in the Transformer? Because SDcard = microSD
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] traum88:
yes, I did, I have 32 Gb Transcend 2 Class. But as far as I understand....indeed. It seems, i understood, what`s wrong. I use SD card with NTFS file system since Transformer allows to use it. Maybe Clockworkmod can`t recognize NTFS. Will try with another card. Thank you!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] KingDavid63:
After you flash custom roms Jou can no longer receive ota unless it's from gnufabio :-) so no worries about losing it from Asus...

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cyberon:
Many thanks to the devs, running Revolver on my B70 SBKv2 ATM! :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] gnufabio:
Yes, just put the blob file of the firmware you want to flash in the /sdcard folder and with adb:

adb shell dd if=/sdcard/blobfilename of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] nEUTRon666:
This unroots the device ? Could you be more specific ? I take the blob file from say my actual stock firmware and just put it on the device and use this command and reboot and it's stock again ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] gnufabio:
Yes, you can find the blob file in the firmware that Asus uploads on its server
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] 00christian00:
Does this also work with the latest firmware? Because I wasn't ablet to install CWM the normal way with my firmware.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jyams:
My TF is really finicky about the microSD card type. I had to try 3 before it recognized one. I have two TF's. One microSD works in one but not in the other. Go figure. You will have to experiment until you find a microSD that CWM will recognize. Android might recognize it when you boot into Revolver, but when you get to CWM, it might not. Anyway, experiment to find one that CWM will recognize.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] smcjf:
Thank you! But I am from China, can not down it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] fuzzbeans:
I haven't had issues with sd cards. Just make sure you format it to FAT32, as that is easier for Android to locate than others. If you wish to switch between Android and Windows that is. Otherwise you could let android format and partition it.

I'd appreciate exact version information on the recovery it flashes in OP.

I ran the app for no reason as I already had 3.2.0.1 installed. It worked though.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] aburgthing:
Thank you for your contributions! I am in no way a developer but I am a voracious Android enthusiast and this app along with RazorClaw and Recovery Installer took all the intimidation out of rooting and customizing my tablet. Again I can't thank you enough! BTW all worked flawlessly.

P.S. It was also one helluva birthday gift!

For anyone interested, I used this to install Clockworkmod on the Asus Slider (after installing Razorclaw) and it worked great. Booted right in and made a backup. Nice work! (all on 8.6.5.18)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] illusion8088:

Thanks for this great tool.. a few days ago I rooted with the Razorclaw app, and now installed Recovery with this app.

Installed RecoveryInstaller.. worked OK!

Created a nandroid backup.. worked OK!

Installed Revolver 3.9.3 ROM.. worked OK!

I have done this on a B50 Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] GreNME:
I need to know how to get a stock ROM as well. I rooted several weeks ago and somewhere along the way the Market got hosed. I've been trying to get it back, including doing a factory reset, but now I'm working with a tablet that has no Market and any Market apk I try to install just results in FCs and no ability to install anything from the Android Market.

The only course of action I can think of at this point is to 1) find some ROM and use it, which I don't want to do, or 2) find and install a stock ROM and start over from scratch getting it configured how I want.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dodge3003:
Have just read on many other threads around XDA that the TF has definite issue's with 32g cards when meesing about with roms, roots and the like. It seems going down to a smaller card helped everybody. Hope this helps :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Tazzaras:
So I had a question regarding this before I attempt to root my transformer.

1. How do I find the blob in the fw if it's on my computer downloaded and how do I get it from my transformer, do I get it before or after root?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Lilextreme:
Do I have to install this on my Slider because I installed razorclaw, ran it, and it says I'm rooted but I could only open superuser once & after restarting Asus slider, superuser iwill just force closes on me & won't give access to any other apps..

Can anyone help?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] GAME ON:
after clicking the "Click to flash Recovery" my transformer reboot..then nothing happen..it just reboot..i already press the volume key when it reboot..still nothing happen..any ways to get to the CWM?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
Press and hold the Vol down + Power button. When you see words at the top left corner prompting you immediately push Vol up (within 5 secs.)

or you can use the boot into recovery app by Gnufabio (look in the market)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cecilyen:
Press and hold the Vol down + Power button does not work for me.

However, the app from Gnufabio works great!

It need a micro sd card in the transformer itself. It will not work with anything on the dock either IIRC.

thank you, this is the quickiest CWM install I've every done.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jdubau55:
Just bought an 8 GB card for $10 shipped. I used the one I already had for TF duty. I needed another as it usually serves dev duty by transferring things here to there or storing files I want to backup.

This app is the bee's knees too. I searched for literally hours the other night trying to figure out how to get root and then achieve a CWM flash. If the info had been in the reference threads, you know the "read these first" thread, I could have not wasted so long trying to use old methods.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jrohwer:
I've searched the forums and can't find an answer to precisely this question. There are plenty of guides for unrooting, and reverting back to the stock ROM (which you can backup with CWM), but I found nothing on reverting to stock recovery.

I've got one of the newer TF101G's (B90 serial) so nvflash won't work. Is there ANY way of reverting to the stock ASUS recovery after installing CWM with this app? Maybe making a backup with 'dd' before installing CWM? On which of the mmcblk partitions is the recovery located?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] polo79:
quick question, im new to rooting the transforner and i just want to know, when i wipe to install prime will it erase my music that is on the internal storage?

Write in bold in first post that this modification for new device b80 or newer is irreversible. I can't send my asus for technical support with warranty anymore.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] uman01:
@^

yes you still can,

just make it so your asus transformer bricked, total brick

even you cant turn it on,

works for my friend, who got the lcd issues and want to claim warranty, since even asus can't turn it back on without reflashing all the system, including the recovery
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ILoveAndroid77:
It is NOT irreversible I think.

If you read

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14113508&postcount=14

there is a possibility to flash a stock recovery via clockworkmod recovery.

I tried this, and it works! Got back a stock recovery from the stock 8.2.3.9 US blob.

This did not help for my problem as wrong stock recovy (need newer DE 3G recovery), but ok, other problem ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jdubau55:
I think if you use the modified CWM recovery that it leaves the internal memory untouched. That is at least my understanding. You will need to look in that thread to be for sure. Pretty sure that it skips over certain folders when doing a wipe. The modified one that is.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] corgar:
there's a guide to extract recovery img from a 8.6.6.19 WW or similar? i was on 8.6.6.19 wth a tf101g B80 WW version.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jtc42:
Can someone confirm which models this will work on? I'm guessing it will install on all models even those above B70, but newer versions it will be irreversible since the flashing program wont work on them?

I'm new to this but that's what I think I've figured out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Stramondroid:
Works great mate...After banging my head against the wall all day, this was a God send. Thanks very much!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ILoveAndroid77:
If we had the 8.6.6.19 as ZIP from Asus, we could do this with the blobtools.

But why do you want the recovery from 8.6.6.19?

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

It is not irreversible on B70 or later. To go back to stock, you have to flash the stock recovery image via CWM and then you can flash back a stock ROM - I think.

ok i rooted with razorclaw.

installed this one click recovery.

clicked "install recovery".....accepted su .... tablet rebooted.

now it will not power on

also will not boot recovery holding vol - and power.

anyone else? is it the power button? software?

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ILoveAndroid77:

Same here, the application starts up and immediately closes with the error "Sorry you are not rooted!" without asking for permission from Superuser. No log is recorded in Superuser that the app asked for permission, other apps that require root run fine.

Is there a way to manually start an app with root access granted (always grant permission in Superuser doesn't work)? Other things I can try? Tips are welcome.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
Try opening up Superuser app

Click on the "wrench" icon at the top right

Scroll down to the General and update your SU binary.

You could also try clearing data for RecoveryInstaller.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] MorbosHN:
it works! thank you :3
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] gadget069:
Worked awesome!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Anodibu:
I had already updated the SU binary but there is no data for RecoveryInstaller in SuperUser which makes me think the problem doesn't lie in SuperUser. I think perhaps the program does its own check at startup if the device is rooted and somehow this check fails on my system.

I've installed an application "Root checker" and that correctly identifies that I am rooted so I don't know what the problem is. Thanks for the help though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Anodibu:
Found the problem, it was indeed the root check of the program. It expects su in /system/xbin, with me it was in /system/bin. Copied su to /system/xbin and RecoveryInstaller starts without error! :)
