Yes the card works fine in other devices and also works fine in the tf300t on the 4.1.1 bootloader with all previous versions of twrp.

I have done a bit of testing here and can confirm that it is just an issue with the new twrp for 4.2, it does kinda mount but will lose mount as soon as you try to use it. I have downgraded to 4.1.1 on tried twrp for 4.2 same issue, tried twrp 2.4.4.0 not for 4.2 and mounts fine.

But smaller cards I have tested have no issue mounting in the new twrp for 4.2 just the 64gb one but the 64gb one has no issues with other twrp versions.

Question please... I was poking on the tarp site and I see there is 2.4.4.0 for ICS, for jb, and for 4.2. I'm on stock 4.2 and running the infamous patched tarp version. Is that what's on the site there with that 4.2 version, or is it even newer? My only gripe with the patched version is I can't mount the SD card like before, but I can live without for now.

Hi Guys,

What is this "patched" version of TWRP I keep hearing about?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] funnel71:
Its v2.4.4.0 designed for jb v4.2.1. It meets the needs of the updated partition table that 4.2.1 brings.

Password problem

Hi.

Just updated to TWRP 2.5.0.0 from 2.4.4.0 and I have a huge problem with recovery asking me for password.

I read the thread and couldn't find solution.

I tried this:

adb shell
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

But this command isn't working for me.

I tried using it while in system and in recovery.

When typing this in recovery I get this message:

~ # ←[6n mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Could not stat /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 --- No such file or directory

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?

And in normal android environment:

shell@android:/ $ mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
/system/bin/sh: mke2fs: not found

Info:

- stock 4.2.1 ROM w/o root

- usb debugging in active

- TWRP 2.4.4.0 worked great but I couldn't mount microSD card (and it asked for password but after a reboot everything went fine).

- don't know why but dock keyboard isn't working on any 4.2 ROM...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
What file, blog or IMG, should I use?

I WAS on twrp 2.4 and then upgraded to ASUS stock android 4.2.2.

Everything is fine until I go into recovery.

When I select the RCK option, the bot is dead. The only other option is wipe data and android.

The ADB command adb devices, doesn't see my tablet.

So I upgraded to the latest version Android SDK and now when my table is connect to the pc, the command adb devices, shows my tablet.

I'm still having the problem with recovery.

And no, I don't have root... but I want it back

I think I need to upgrade to the twrp 2.5 but I have question(s)

1) Which file do I select from the TeamWin site? Blob or IMG?

2) what is the proper fastboot command to send the custom recovery to my tf300t?

TIA
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Agred:
Everything is written on their page. Use blob.

Although I use 2.4.4.0 because 2.5 wants a password.

Command:

fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob

Just rename downloaded file to twrp.blob.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
I exactly as you said and I get the following; error: cannot load 'twrp.blog': No error

what next?

Thanks
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Agred:
If the name of this file is "twrp.blog" then I have no chances to help you.

Anyway, you need to have fastboot drivers installed for your device (search for it if you don't have it) and you need to boot into bootloader. If you use 4.2 bootloader then you will automaticly be in fastboot. If not you have to choose USB icon. Then use the command. SImple as that.

P.S.

Few things:

- adb doesn't see you, because after changing firmware you have usb debugging disabled

- after flashing stock system it overwrites your recovery and because of that your bot is dead. There's nothing wrong with twrp 2.4.4.0.

Infinite bootloop

Hi, I flash the lastest version of TWRP (2.5.0.0) on a fresh install of the lastest stock ROM 10.6.1.8.1, but i get a infinite bootlop of my device, it always enter in the recovery when I reboot my device, and ask for password (I don't enter a password before). If i select "cancel", I can enter the menu, but i get erros about mounting partitions, and when i try to enter in fasboot, it enters the recovery again (don't show me the classic menu with "RCK, boot on android, wipe data")and do the same thing and errors.

I can't return to a past version or flash another recovery, or flash an stock ROM because it doesn't mount partitions.

Someone know a way to fix this?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Agred:
You CAN flash a new recovery via fastboot. I have the same problem with twrp 2.5.0.0 and no fix is working for me so I went back to 2.4.4.0. After first boot of this recovery it will prompt for a password, but all you need to do is cancel it and reboot.

And here's a possible solution for our problem, but sadly it's not working for me:

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] MotoFlasher:
The 2.5.0.0 version runs fine. Like the new selection between the internal-external memory. Flashed via fastboot.

But a sort of "go back to the menu itself" would be great. Find the press back unnecessarily.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
When sitting in the fastboot mode on the tablet, when I open a command window on the pc and type fastboot devices, the command returns a string of data, which to me indicates that the drivers are installed. Sounds 'bout right?

I never said something was wrong with 2.4.4, I'm just looking for assistance in trying to resolve my issue as I attempt to install twrp 2.5. after manually upgrading to ASUS 4.2.2

Thank you
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Agred:
No problem.

It should work now. You just have to flash recovery with it and boot to twrp. Good luck with password though!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
Yes and no

Flashed the .img file successfully.

Turned tablet off, held the power and volume down but twrp still doesn't come up, fastboot mode appears.

Any suggestions?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Mynzer:
The real problem is that I can't enter in fastboot mode either, when i press the combination butons (power + volume down) the device reboot and go to the recovery again, as mentioned before, doesn't show the classic menu with the options (RCK, boot to android, wipe data), enters the recovery directly without passing this menu.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Agred:
I assume you don't just go to bootloader.

You used twrp.blob or twrp.img?

You still have this dead bot? What fastboot said when flashing recovery?

Hm, strange. It never happend to me this way. I'm sorry but I don't think I can help you. I would probably try to reset tablet (hole below microSD slot) but I don't want to make things worse.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
When I select the RKC option, it attempts to load the recovery image and then it appears that it is working and then the dead bot appears.

I flashed twrp.img

Fastboot said

sending 'recovery'

Okay...

Writing recovery...

Okay...

Hypothesis

After looking at other forums, I found what is apparently is happening to my device, I discover what's my mistake, and I'm going to leave you the exact steps of what I did

This is what I Did, and how you can brick your device (Don't do it if you don't know how to bring back to life your device without fastboot)

1. Flash the lastest firmware from asus 10.6.1.8.1 (Android 4.2) and reboot into OS

2. Reboot my device and Flash TWRP 2.5.0.0 through Fastboot (pwr + vol down) (This is my mistake, 2.4.4.0-42 is for Android 4.2)

3. At this point i notice that TWRP ask for password, (select cancel, and notice that the recovery shows error about mounting partitions)

4. Reboot and press (pwr + vol down), in this menu I select, "wipe data" (THIS IS THE KILLER STEP, AFTER THIS STEP, YOU CAN'T ENTER IN FASTBOOT MODE)

5. After selecting "wipe data", the device reboot and enter the recovery again asking password and with the errors (mounting partitions)

6. At this point (in the place where I am), when I reboot the device, ALWAYS ENTER IN TWRP RECOVERY, REGARDLESS I PRESS THE BUTTON COMBINATION (pwr + Vol down), IT SKIPS THE MENU WITH (FASTBOOT,RCK, Wipe Data, boot to android)

My theory is that the device has the pending boot task "wipe data", but since it can't mount the partitions, it can't complete the task, and therefore that attempts to wipe data, it skips the menu with the fastboot option.

If someone found a solution, i will be grateful
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] abraham.ramirez:
are you on 4.2, the bootloader no longer requires any extra commands to enter fastboot. fastboot is available as soon as you enter the bootloader
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:
Ohhh dumb me!!

It was a typo after all! I was typing twrp.bloG instead of twrp.bloB.

Once I corrected that, everything went fine and now I can get into twrp.

I used the fastboot method and I am the latest stock ASUS rom, 4.2.2

thank you for your assistance and for not making feel like an idiot.

Since I just installed twrp 2.5, I noticed that when I tried to leave twrp, it asked me if I wanted the tablet rooted.

I swiped to install SuperSu with the expectation that when installed, I would be rooted.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ricco333:
That Sandisk ultra card that you are trying to use is probably a UHS-1 card and TWRP does not support UHS-1, I have a 64gb Sandisk Ultra card and had to replace it with a generic card and now everything is ok. Try a different cheap generic card.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] NeoMatrixJR:
Is that a specific issue in TWRP for this device? I have TWRP 2.4.3.0 on my Samsung Galaxy SIII (CMDA) with the exact same card and it works just fine.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ricco333:
I couldn't tell you for sure if it is a problem specific or not, I just found a workaround and I used it, these developers already put so much of their time into this devices that whenever I can find a solution to my problem I just do it, anyway generic cards are real cheap now and I get to use the 64gb UHS-1 card on my Galaxy Note. I think if you use a 32gb FAT32 card you should not have any problems.

Hope it helps.

Update problems

I've been reading several threads tonight about my problem. I updated to the newest Asus rom and then updated twrp. Went in to flash my superuser.zip and it asked for a password. Hit cancel and couldn't see any of my files. All storage shows 0MB and the log is full of couldn't mount...everything. /you name it. All unmountable. Rebooting in twrp says no is installed sure to reboot? If I swipe to confirm it locks up. However instead of bootlooping like everyone else mine will boot into android just fine and mount correctly. I can see all my files and apps there. Just no root bc I can't flash anything. Tried the patched version of twrp and it will let me see the files on external SD only and still cannot zip. Can't format cache or dalvik either. It says the wipe is successful but the code says couldn't mount this or that or anything. Fastboot is working fine but 4 versions of twrp and the newest clockwork mod getting me no where. And adb has never worked for me. I've tried everything I can find. Adb devices runs and shows nothing and says error device not found when trying commands. Thats been going on from the begening though and not related to this.
