Nope, you need to get adb working because of your special situation. Please follow berndblb's advise and check out his guide. It seems to be the only way. Read the instruction very carefully and download bootit.ko. Perhaps you don't need the mentioned script. I wish you good luck. :good:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sindee75:
I did everything berndblb said and did the bootit.kodi also. I hope I didn't download the wrong Minimal ADB & Fastboot. I wasn't given a link to it but I think I found it from xda forum.

Thanks again
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berndblb:
As long as you do not get a positive return from

adb devices

it is useless to try pushing bootit.ko.

Getting adb fastboot to work is your holy grail, the path to salvation.

I wish I had the perfect set of drivers somewhere ready for you, but believe me - it's the same hassle for me, especially if you are working with different devices and you need to install adb fastboot drivers for all of them.

So keep trying, for example:

Try every USB port on your computer. For my TF701 I get an error and unrecognized device if I plug it into a USB 3.0 port, but it works just fine on USB 2.0 port. If you have USB hubs, remove them. Reboot the computer on a regular basis when fighting with this. At some point Windows seems to just refuses to work with any USB device when fiddling around too much.

It's a real PIA and I did not even get inot the hops I have to jump through to get it working with my Nexus.... It's enough to loose the little hair I have left, almost annoying enough to break down and switch to Linux.

Which is another option: Borrow or steal a Linux machine. No drivers needed in Linux.

Here's another set of USB drivers you might not have tried https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120726900

I attached a zip with a few of pictures from Device manager.

Hope it helps!

Good job up to now, please don't give up! :)

To be sure you have the right one there is attached "Minimal ADB & Fastboot" that runs on my PC. Please compare the application with yours. Try the "Naked Drivers" from berndblb's link. Hopefully you'll get ADB work.

If all else fails, it may be time to replace the mainboard. You can do it yourself and just for the cost of one from EBay, +- $30. See this post https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43706759
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berndblb:
TBH, I would not put even $30 into this old tablet. With a replacement mobo you could run into the problem that you won't be able to unlock the bootloader because you have a mismatch between the device ID and the mac address of the board. Asus servers don't like that during the unlock procedure. And the Transformer without a custom rom is just plain unbearable. Better save that money towards a new tablet...

Or a Chromebook since there really is no equivalent for the Transformer among Android tablets.

[MENTION=4968172]berndblb[/MENTION] just got this message. Finally got a new usb cord for tf300t shipped to me so I am back at it again. I've gotten a little further. Device manager now shows android composite interface and Android under MTP in windows. However, file manager does not show another attached drive.. should it? NOW, when I do a adb devices command, it showed the serial number and next to it, it says recovery. What does this mean? When I do fastboot erase system, it says "waiting for any device" I am not sure what is going on! Could it be that usb debugging is disabled? I had kitkass 6.0.1 on the device, does anyone know if kitkass 6.0 is installed with usb debugging enabled? I don't ever remembering disabling it in settings. Perhaps this is my problem? In the link from FWUL, it mentions lunix. Do I need a lunix machine to do his link? It sounds complicated to me. Hope ebonit sees this to. All advice is sooooo very much Welcomed! [MENTION=7106193]ebonit[/MENTION] thanks!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berndblb:
GOOD!

asked a bit much at this point. First you need android to boot!

It means you have adb access when the tablet is in recovery! Yay! Here you have to push bootit.ko to the tablet and issue the insmod command. Once that is successful you can proceed with fastboot commands

NO. USB debugging has nothing to do with fastboot. You need to read some basic tutorial on adb and fastboot, two different and separate tools. There are plenty here on XDA. You use adb when the tablet is booted into Android or recovery. Fastboot yopu use when the tablet is booted into the bootloader, that is the screen with the 3 icons. Issue 'fastboot devices' when on this screen to check if you access

Forget this for now. If you got the drivers working it's not worth it to learn the basics of Linux to be able to access the tablet. Follow the guide I wrote! and then ask in that thread so that we don't clutter up this one!! Sorry about the OT, [MENTION=3127371]Buster99[/MENTION]

Here is the latest..

adb devices shows the "serial number" and says recovery

​adb push bootit.ko / comes back with 1 file pushed 1.2 mbs (27690 bytes in 0.022s)bytes​

I then enter:

adb shell insmod /bootit.ko and it does nothing, doesn't even go back to the C: prompt and tablet sits at the TEAMWIN Recovery project 3.0.2-0

after a long time of doing nothing, I type in fastboot devices under the

C:\fastboot>adb shell insmod /bootit.ko command and it inputs an additional fastboot devices

C:\fastboot>adb shell insmod /bootit.ko

fastboot devices

fastboot devices

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sindee75:
This may be a silly question, but the /sdcard/ means we are pushing bootit.ko from the sdcard and I would need to add bootit.ko to the SD card?? BTW, the above is pretty much a screen shot via copy and paste of the cmd window... just wondering if I need to add bootit.ko to the SD card or adb and fastboot files? Katkiss 6.0 rom, recovery, twrp, etc. are already stored on the SD card in the tf300t. Thanks
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berndblb:
No, /sdcard/ is the Android address for your internal storage or data partition. Before we were trying to push it to the root directory /

Since that does not seem to work it's worth a shot trying a different location.

You are talking about external storage on your microSD. That's different and doesn't help here.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berndblb:
Hmm let's see if the push works.. After pushing bootit.ko, issue this command :

adb shell

ls /sdcard/

Yes, that is hitting Enter after adb shell, then the list command to see what's in /sdcard/.

If you see the*bootit.ko*file, exit the shell by typing "exit" and hit enter.

Let's assume you see the bootit.ko in /sdcard, now let's see if you still have adb access:

Back at the adb command line type:

adb devices

If you get the serial and recovery again try it again:

adb shell insmod /sdcard/bootit.ko

The command has to be one line, do not separate the "adb shell" from the rest of the command. Just tried it and that does not work.

If you do not see bootit.ko in /sdcard/ either the adb connection is not reliable or maybe the file got corrupted...

Whatever it is, download everything from scratch and try again.

If you cannot insmod bootit.ko to kick your tablet back into the bootloader, I 'm out of ideas. It's the only way I know of to recover from this situation. And I've been around the block with this tablet.... I don't think there is another way. Make it work!

Ok, sorry - it's been crazy around here.

I do not like one bit that you do not have fastboot access in the bootloader and somehow suspect something else is going on, but I cannot make sense of it...

So you have adb in Android.

Make sure you are flashing the correct recovery this time, ok?

Rename the downloaded recovery image to twrp.img and place it into the root of your internal memory on the tablet. That is the same level where your Pictures and Documents folder are too. Do not put it into any folders, just into the root level of /sdcard

Then issue these commands:

adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

Then reboot the tablet normally. Turn it off again and now boot into recovery and check if it is accessible.

Best is probably that you copy and paste the dd command. Please make sure you type it correctly, especially the last bit: That's mmcblk"zero"p4
