does this support backing up and reinstalation of kernels in ROM's, cause i thought i heard it did not and id have to use like fastboot to restore kernels
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seshaz:
I think it backs up boot.blob.

is there a chance to copy zip's in recovery? because I have Bootloop and don't get it working with full wipes(!!) :(
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] herschwolf:
This should go in the normal Q/A section as this is a development post, find a quick answer from me below but PM me if you have more questions and I'd be happy to help were I can. Otherwise, repost the question in the Q/A section of the Forum.

***

What do you mean by copy? If you are in a bootloop you need to flash a new ROM that your device supports. Bootloops are usually a sign of unsupported ROM or corrupted flash of a ROM. If you are wanting to back something up before you flash a new ROM, I'm not sure that's entirely possible as the system appears to be corrupted, but you can just flash the same ROM/Original ASUS Firmware WITHOUT wiping data (just Wipe Dalvik Cache) and you should be able to get back into the system and get any data you had from it.

-Nate
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] funnel71:
You could put the zip on an external card and flash it from there, if that's what you mean.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DrPlumEU:
Any possibility for support for 64GB microSD card?

The large capacity card works perfectly under JB, but is not recognised by TWRP.

Thanks for excellent recovery kernel
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] carlosraf20:
I see that the TF700 is now able to install this recovery using goo manager, is there any way possible to this for the TF300T?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DMardroid:
" Installs via goo manager are currently unavailable due to different builds being required on ICS vs JB."

quote from TWRP site

√ here http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/97

So its required to install Fast boot method

its easy

You can do it bud :thumbup:

Follow easy steps from above link

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] carlosraf20:
I know this , but my question is because they found a solution to install this recovery using goo manager once more for the TF700.

Lets wait for mr. Dees_troy's response then :D
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] eyeballer:
The issue on the tf700 is different to the issues on the 201 and 300. So right now we don't have unified versions for those devices so no goo manager installs.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] capt730:
Is the new 2.3 compatible with our device? If so, will it work with the ICS bootloader or just the JB bootloader?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] -angel*:
We'll see...

But did I read the changelog right, that this C++ coding of the recovery is a big step into JB bootloader supporting AOSP rom, but doesn't support it yet?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] eyeballer:
Updated to 2.3.0.0
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] prototype7:
New version working for other people? Just got this unlocked and trying to flash Baked ROM, but it keeps bootlooping. Md5sum is correct. Will try an earlier version now, if they're up on the site.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DMardroid:
If your on the new JB bootloader Baked won't boot. Huge bummer.

No fix for this atm but its in the works.

Only Roms that are good to go is

Hydro JB

Clean Rom

or the roms by dev surdu....
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] prototype7:
Didn't think it had updated to JB, but I might be an idiot. Will try to nvflash back to ICS tomorrow.

If you read all guide from TWRP, you will see that you cannot use Goo manager with your tf300

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bige914:
Don't fret go to the website pick out the device. Then click on what version you require download it directly to tablet. Change its name to twrp.blob then move the file to the root of your internal SD card. Next make sure you install terminal emulator from Android market and follow the commands to type according to twrp website. If flash was successful reboot your device to complete installation.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] joelalmeidaptg:

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] lawsonmh15:
I'm on ICS currently and running a the stock rom. Do I flash a JB rom, THEN flash the JB twrp, Or do I need to flash the JB twrp, THEN flash the JB ROM?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Sib64:
Really simple.

Actually if you don't have updated on JB, use TWRP for ICS.

But if you are rooted only, backuped your root wit OTA rootkeeper, updated by OTA, unlocked, restored your root and installed the TWRP for JB.

That's what I've done for my TF300T and it's works well ;)

[edit] I agree with the next post by @k1chy. Used Nvflash.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] k1chy:
If you are in ICS, better use NVflash and take backups. Then your tablet work be bricksafe. Later you can switch between boot loaders.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] lawsonmh15:
I've got rot baked up and made a backup awhile ago, but when I go to update firmware it says no update available... what am i missing? In about it shows as 4.0.3
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] funnel71:
Like it

Loaded up the 2.3 update, flashed nicely, backs up even nicer, and I like the ADB sideload concept. Awesome work on this!!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] lawsonmh15:
Can you give me a brief outline of what I need to do and the order I need to do it in please? I'm on stock, unlocked and rooted w voodoo on 4.0.3 and want to flash clean rom. What do you mean by NVflash?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] prototype7:
Just to clarify, you want to reinstall stock ROM and you're unlocked? Follow the instructions on the TWRP site to install it, then you can flash the update zip through TWRP. If you want to use NVFlash, which I would recommend as it makes it extremely difficult to brick your device and will allow you to switch between ICS and JB bootloaders, then you need to do that before updating to JB. The thread is stickied in this subforum.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] lawsonmh15:
I'm on the stock 4.0.3 and want to go to clean ROM. Same process?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] prototype7:
Oh, I see. Haven't been around these forums long enough to know that was a ROM :p Yes, same process, just install the ROM instead of the update zip.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] prototype7:
Since I saw people talking about having issues with the latest recovery and not being able to find older releases, they're still hosted, there just aren't any links to them. Go to the page where you download 2.3.0.0, then change the name in the URL to the release you want, and it will download.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] R4id3n84:

Adb? I'm a noob to Android isn't adb an aplication format for android?

I tried updating on goo manager but saying no updates available

i really wanna put on a custom rom

Be nice if someone could do step by step instructions :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bige914:
To answer your question on how to flash recovery its very simple. All you need to do is go to the website in the description pick your device pick your android version either ICS or OTA jelly bean. Now after you download the file rename it to twrp.blob then move it to your internal sdcard. Now go to play store. Install terminal emulator and from there type in the code mentioned under install method with terminal emulator. If successful it should say copied x amount of bytes to x. Now reboot your device to complete installation. On reboot you will see a blue like loading bar if that loads up then dissapears all is good. Remember though you need root and an unlocked bootloader before doing any of this. Have fun and don't type something wrong and complain about how the tab got bricked lol.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] R4id3n84:
Tried the terminal way n no luck :(

Got it to work using fastboot tho :victory:

Extract from the archive with the firmware file blob

I added the file to the message. The latest version of Android SDK Tools pulled adb and fastboot and made a command file to install it, so as not to type it manually.

This archive should be unpacked in the root of drive C. Folder was adb-t. In this folder, copy the firmware file ( blob ) you extracted.

We go on the tablet mode fastboot, connect the tablet to the computer and launch firmware.bat.

Installs the firmware, expect to fill the display screen tablet and press the space bar (any key) on the keyboard to restart the tablet. Remove the cables from the tablet.

I'm lost, I'm presently on CM10 which is android 4.1.2. I have TWRP 2.2.x.x, but wanted to flash through Goo the latest. Goo says there'a no recovery.

You're still on ICS bootloader and need the ICS version of TWRP as I know...

After flashing it seems to go ok, then says finished. but still no TWRP.

tried terminal but cant root till i get twrp, so no su.

I tried to use transformer reboot to recovery and nothing happens. I powered down and then tried to power into recovery and nothing again.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] dapbmonkey4u:
yes I am Asus unlocked. Sorry, should have mentioned that prior.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] eyeballer:
Double check you're using the right blob and the right fastboot command. On your computer you should see it finish sending the file at that point you may just have to hard power off then power on and let it boot normally, you should see a blue bar in the screen and it should reboot again, then you can intercept to go to recovery.

If that doesn't work.. then you'll have to wait for someone with a tf300 to chime in with other steps...
