so back when i had 1.5 on my hero i had no problem at all installing roms. so when i updated to 2.1 stock awhile back i tried to root it and install a rom on it with the command prompt and unevoked method. it got it rooted and when i got to the recovery menu i nanidroid backedup and wiped and installed it. it then got stuck on the htc boot screen so i tried different rom and still would hang on it. so i said screw it and stayed on stock. i then later used the unlock univeral to root it but i can not stand the stock rom it is so slow and lags so i tried the offiical htc update from .6 to .7 to see if it would be faster but once it downloaded and i pressed install it would yet again hang on the htc screen. i cant even make calls with out lagging. so i tried once more to install 2.2 on it with a recovery img. i download rom manger and put froyo on the sd card but it would yet again hang when i click install rom from sd card. what do i do?!!!!!
update: i tried doing it through the teminal but it say flash_recovery not found
so i tried to do it through rom manger and it did the back up and installed it through the recovery menu but once it was done and rebooted it yet again is stuck on the htc boot screen.
help please!
It might b the recovery ur using if your able to boot into any rom access terminal you can get it from the market try to flash a different recovery I recommend. Darchstar RA 1.6 once u download it place it on the root of ur SD card not in any folders / then open up terminal and type su once the # appears type flash_image recovery /sdcard/ recovery- name of recovery. img wen that's done type reboot recovery and you should boot into recovery then try and flash ur rom from there hope this helps good luck

I recommend you boot into recovery - wipe your system / cache / dalvik cache and then flash the 2.2 rom of your choice -
if you were just flashing rom after rom without flashing then that could be a lot of your troubles -
also - you mentioned that the recovery file was not found on your sdcard - did you remember to unzip it first before attempting to flash it through terminal emulator? because it wont work otherwise ...
if you have extracted it to the root of your sdcard you shouldnt have any trouble
type
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/nameofyourrecovery.img
reboot recovery
and you should be good to go - let me know how you do and we'll see if we can't help you further if needed
good luck!

you said that you are doing this in a terminal window? (i am assuming that is on the phone) is your phone connected via usb to your computer? is the sdcard mounted by the computer? if it is unplug the usb and try again. if the computer has mounted the sdcard you can't access it from the phone.
i dont have it plugged in when i use the terminal on the phone

ok just checking.... that was the only thing that i could think of that would stop you from reading the sdcard.
It may sound silly, bt when I do it I always make sure I account for case sensitivity...
Like flash_image recovery /sdcard/RA-Darchstar.img
Have you tried that?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
yep make sure everything that has a capitals in it i capitalized in the terminal
this may sound silly as well.. sometimes when i use adb to push i mistype the location for example: adb push myfile.ext /adcard
everything goes fine until i go to find the file....
don't know though.
i still can't figure out how to install a custom rom.
Try backing up you sd and reformatting it on ur pc then just place the recovery img on your sd and nothing else then try to flash it good luck feel free to pm me I know how u feel man so if I can help I will good luck

Hi, I was trying to make the backup of my DS 7 wifi stock using ClockworkMod Recovery. After that I try to restore it, but after restore it stucks(Loop) at ClockworkMod Recovery. It's not working! Moreover, I can't change it to fastboot, can you please help me resolve it! Is there any way I can change it to fastboot.
I highly appreciate your help!
--------------------------------------------------------------
Got answere!
mount all the things you can in the ClockworkMod Recovery,
Go to cmd in windows,
c:\ cd android-sdk/platform-tools/
type these in adb shell
flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p2 /sdcard/boot_orig.img
flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p1 /sdcard/recovery_orig.img
select reboot from the recovery. now it will reboot and it will format misc and it will reboot again. NOW the device will load the os!!!
now that you are here, i also suggest to go to fastboot again and to flash all over again in this order:
flash system
flash recovery
flash boot
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are getting failed with error:-1:Make sure: you mount internal sdcard from ClockworkMod Recovery> to copy files downloaded from here!
recovery: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23637011/recovery_orig.img

I have an MTS CDMA HTC Hero, and I'm un able to put a custom recovery image on. I went into that HBOOT menu and at the top it says "S-ON" and I was reading that it needs to say "S-OFF" in order for me to put a custom recovery like Clockwork Mod onto it. My phone is rooted, I used z4root. I have no idea how to put the custom recovery on. And I cannot find the free version of ROM Manager in the market, and I tried the appbrain method and putting the .apk on my sd card method and nothing is working
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!

Our phone does not require S-OFF to flash a custom recovery. When I get to a computer I'll upload a recovery.img for you to download. Until then download Terminal Emulator and Busybox Installer. With Busybox Installer open it and install busybox

there should be aman ra or an older recovery in the wiki
Whenever I put my hero into recovery mode I also get this red exclamation mark with a phone beside it. Is that because I don't have a custom recovery installed on the phone or?
And I'm also not too sure how to install a custom recovery on the phone.
Flash recovery using: ADB
NOTE: This method will work while you are booting into the current recovery on the phone.
1.Download the ClockworkMod Recovery: HeroC
2.Copy the recovery.img to root of the SD card.
3.Boot the phone into recovery.
4.Open command prompt, cd to the Android SDK directory & type the following commands:
adb shell
mount /sdcard
flash_image recovery /sdcard/"name of recovery".img
reboot recovery
5.Your phone should now reboot into the ClockworkMod Recovery (orange text for 3.0+).
Flash recovery using: Terminal Emulator Note: Requires s-off, otherwise you'll recieve "out of memory" errors.
1.Download the ClockworkMod Recovery: HeroC Download Optimus V Download.
2.Move recovery.img to root of the SD card.
3.Open the Terminal Emulator on the phone & type the following commands:
4.:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/"name of recovery".img
reboot recovery
5.The phone should now reboot into the ClockworkMod Recovery (orange text for 3.0+).
Whenever I type in the first code I get "error: device not found" and I have my phone in recovery mode
do you have android sdk installed on your computer, if no , install it. if yes, open a command prompt and type,
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
next type:
adb devices
it should list your device
next type:
adb shell
you should get a # sign
then procede from there
or try the terminal emulator method,,,much easier. you can get "terminal emulator " from android market...good luck
whenever I change my directory to the tools folder ADB doesn't work, but when I change it to the "Platform-Tools" folder ADB works.
Sorry for being such a pain-in-the-butt, but I'm new to this whole rooting stuff.
What's the terminal emulator method?
I was trying to do this method
"Type in the following commands:
adb push recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-heroc.img /sdcard/recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-heroc.img
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/
flash_image recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-heroc.img
reboot recovery"
but that doesn't seem to be working for me either, that's where I get the "Flash_Image: not found" error
Hi , so I was messing around with the updated roms of 4.2.2 and I had formatted the SD card after installing the latest version of insertcoin, after which I mistakenly cleared all the data as well including the current rom installed... dumb I know.
So now I'm stuck with only recovery and fastboot access, is there a way to install a new ROM, or stock image using fastboot? Recovery can no longer mount storage due to some recent changes so like I said I'm stuck.. any help is appreciated.
Boot in recovery and use the adb sideload, or push into your sd the rom with:
Code:
adb push name-of-rom.zip /sdcard/
.
The rom will be in the folder when you have adb and fastboot.
Hello
I try to install a custom recovery on my tf701 (android 4.3, USB debug ON)
here are the previous steps i did :
1/ i have unlock the bootloader using ASUS tools : OK
2/ i have root the TF701 : OK
for this, I installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot
I copy the files found here
and I lauch the command : adb reboot bootloader
then : fastboot boot zImage_dtb ramfs.img.gz
the root is ok
-------------------------------------------------------------------
3/ i try to install recovery
i download the file here : droidbasement.com/asus/tf701t/recovery/
i put the file in the folder of Minimal ADB and Fastboot
and i launch the commande : adb reboot bootloader
then, when the fasboot usb mode is ready on the device : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
first time :
target reported max download size of 64382
sending 'recovery' (6652 KB)...
FAILED (data write failure (Unknown error)
finished. total time: 5.050s
second time :
target didn't report max-download-size
sending 'recovery' (6652 KB)...
FAILED (remote: (Timeout))
finished. total time: 2.010s
Can you help me please ? I add that, when the device is ON in a normal mode (not fastboot) and connected to the PC with USB, the adb driver interface are ok :
"
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
E1OKCY174091 device
"
i have tried to plug on other usb port ... it's the same ...
i have tried to reboot my computer : ... it's the same ...
i have tried to download another version of adp/fasboot (platform-tools_r28.0.2-windows.zip) : it's the same
without this installation, I can't install a custom rom ..
Many thanks in advance !
There are only two working recoveries for the TF701, one CWM without touch interface which I don't quite trust and a pretty good TWRP with touch here https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....-kang-twrp-tf700t-2-8-x-xarea51-t3121989/amp/
The one you have there is probably the stock recovery...
The Kang TWRP is a little buggy though. You may come to a point where TWRP tells you it cannot mount /system or any other partition for that matter. All you have to do is convert the file system on /system to ext2, then convert it right back to ext4 and proceed with rom installation.
Good luck!

Hello berndblb
Many thanks for your help
The recovery I try to install is Recovery v6.0.4.6 CWM 11.
Which one is the easier to install for a beginner ?
Because what you said previously seems difficult for me ("convert the file system on /system to ext2, then convert it right back to ext4 and proceed with rom installation.")
Can you explain me how to do ?
Recovery v6.0.4.6 CWM 11 or Kang TWRP : can i install then the Rom "
ROM][N 7.1.2] [ KatKiss - Nougatella #037 ] for asus tf701
?
Many thanks in advance
They are equally easy to install since you just flash both of them in fastboot
But if you are asking which is easier to use, then it is the Kang TWRP. CWM does not have the drivers for the touch interface and you have to navigate everything with the vol buttons. More importantly I do not trust the "format data" function in CWM and that is crucial to install a custom rom. The issue with the corrupt file system in the Kang TWRP is a minor nuisance and you fix it right in TWRP. If you get the "cannot mount....." error, you just go to Wipe > Advanced > Change or repair file system, check the System partition and convert it to ext3 (or ext2 - does not matter). Swipe the button and when it is done (less than a minute) you repeat the step and change it back to ext4. After that everything should be good. If you want to read more about this issue search the Katkiss thread for "cannot mount"
Actually, there is another custom recovery out there which I have not tried and cannot vouch for. But maybe you go for that one, it does not seem to have the same issue and is based on a later version of TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tr...lopment/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-x-tf701t-t3720912
Read the thread, it seems to work fine. The Kang TWRP is 2.8, that one is based on 3.2.1 - both are fine to flash a Katkiss rom.
You do know that you have to fully format /data before you can flash a custom rom, right? You do that in your custom recovery (in TWRP: Wipe>Format Data, swipe the button). TWRP does a secure erase which wipes and trims every block. That's why this formatting takes around 60 minutes. Do not interrupt it!! CWM does not have this functionality, another reason I prefer TWRP..
hello berndblb and all helpers !
i have installed the Kang TWRP: it's ok
then I copy the custom rom KatKit for TF701 on /sdcard
i do a full wipe : error : "cannot mount..." : so I convert to ext2 and then I convert to ext4 the partition System and data
then i do a full wipe
my problem ... i'm sure you find it : i have erased all my data on /sdcard. No kitkat.zip yet !! :crying::crying::crying:
how to copy the rom on my tablet ?
for your information, when I am in TWRP, i can do "adb devices" on my computer :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
15C4110C61C00000009FB01C0 recovery
But push commande is failed
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb push KatKiss.zip /sdcard/
adb: error: failed to copy 'KatKiss.zip' to '/sdcard/KatKiss.zip': no response:
Connection reset by peer
i put kitkat.zip on a USB Key and I plug it on my docks : it seems not be recognized ...
i 'm really lost
please help !!
Put the Rom on a microSD, mate. You can navigate in TWRP to the card and flash from there

Hello !!
I have nevers seen the microsd port ! I discover it 2 days ago !
Just before your answer, a 'adb push' was successfull ! I don't know why, and the next 'adb push' for gapps ans supersu were unsuccessful...it's strange !
But all IS ok now !
I have just a last 2 questions :
1/ next Time, where Can i copy the rom (.Zip) , somewhere it will not be deleted ?
2/my tablet is not rooted now ... Is the way to root depends on the Rom ?
If I follow the steps i did when my tf701 has the rom stock, IS still good ? (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516215)
Thanks for your help !
1) the safest place is a microSD. You can flash the Rom straight from there. But as long as you do not format your data partition - and you only need to to that if you install a different rom - you can keep it on internal storage. In most cases you only need to wipe /data, not format, and that leaves /data /media where your files live, untouched.
2) First the question is: Do you need root? You should only root your rom for a good reason. If you are not sure if you need root - you don't.
Cyber threats are multiplying. You're safer if the tablet is not rooted.
That said: you can root by just flashing the zip in recovery.
BTW, if you did not flash gapps yet, you always should flash it together with the rom, not separate. To install gapps now flash the rom, then gapps, then root (if needed), reboot
