I was on 8.9.13 and tried to install 8.9.20 with a zip file trough TWRP. I wan't to get back to 8.9.13, but even when i start my device it is stuck on region which my only option is China, but after that i get into a loop it wont get further.
I downloaded 8.9.13 zip file and want to put it in internal storage but i get many different maps with letters and numbers. When i want to copy the zip file 8.9.13, it wont get on internal storage.
I have my bootloader unlocked.
Please, what am I doing wrong? And what can i do?
Go to the Mitools, download the right rom, and flash it
Or install TWRP and install using the TWRP

Try a new cable/port/computer. Also move to twrp and install a rom which works with it, I didn't know some ROMs won't work with it.
There is an option in CWM to mount your device as USB, even when in recovery. I think its in advanced, do that. Then ou can copy the rom file to the device and flash it by selecting as zip from sdcard.
How can i flash a OTA Zip manually?
I tried it with CWM but get the eror Message "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory
no way Jose!
the OTA Zip is ONLY for the normal recovery.. not work in Custom recovery like CWM or TWRP ...
flash a stock ROM to works..
greetings..
:good:

You must do it from a clean system without root (in theory) and the recovery of stock
so you must prepares a clean install with RSD lite and from there you have the zip ota, you must place it on the external SD and reboot into bootloader mode and choose to enter recovery, once in the recovery you must install zip from external sd
ota file has specific restrictions in origin (compilation of your operating system) to destination are upgrading so ota files will verify that you are in the point of origin of the operating system for which it was designed that update.
see here one example

Need more info. Format type of internal SD? Drivers? OS? Etc...
Thank you for your reply. Are the above links given to give me a hand (stupid question certainly)?
Well, I am going to try to repair my tablet with a new SD card. But I need help right from the start.
Living in France, I suppose the right firmware must start with WW. I have downloaded all these firwares from Asus:
UL-K00C-WW-11.4.1.27-user.zip, UL-K00C-WW-11.4.1.29-user.zip, UL-K00C-WW-11.4.1.30-user.zip, WW_10_26_1_18_SDupdate.zip, WW_epaduser_10_14_1_47_UpdateLauncher.zip, WW_epaduser_V11_4_1_17_updatelauncher.zip.
Which one should I use? What am I going to do next?
When I start it in flashboot mode, I get the message "Android Macallan-user BL released by "WW_epad_11.4.1.30-20150121"
Press ...
Starting fastboot USB download protocol"

Well you should use the latest one which is UL-K00C-WW-11.4.1.30-user.zip
I'm not sure what you are attempting to do? Are you saying that your internal data is not working or just not recognised by windows. If the later you probably just need to update your drivers on windows.
Have a search for the latest compatible windows ones for Asus.
my tablet is stuck in boot process. I did something wrong when deleting built-in apps, so I have to make a recovery.
I made some progress in the meantime. Connected the tablet to the PC, put the CWM boot.img in the fastboot folder, put Asus UL-K00C-WW-11.1.4.30 firmware on the SD card, started fatboot.exe and got the menu on the tablet (reboot system now - install zip - wipe data partition - ...), started install.zip.
Now I get the message "This package is for KOOC; this is a tf701t. Error in storage/USBdisk1h/ul-KOOC-11.4.1.30-user.zip.Installation aborted
external SD card recovery to stock

This procedure did not work. However I have installed CyanogenMod with the Cyanogen recovery on the tablet and finally coud boot. Now I would like to go back to the Asus settings. How can I do this? The Asus UL-K00C-WW-11.1.4.30 firmware, as I said before, is followed by the message "This package is for K00C; this is a tf701t.", but the tablet appears as K00c in My Computer. Different names, same device!

Did you rename the stock firmware zip file to T4_SDUPDATE.zip and put the zip firmware file on the root of the EXTERNAL SD card and power on or restart your device. it should detect a firmware update. if it does not detect any firmware update after about 1 or 2 minutes or it boots normally, go into bootloader and select RCK from the menu with zip file on the external sd card.
it sounds like you were trying to install the stock firmware zip file through the custom recovery install zip option which will not work. TF701T is KOOC... also, make sure 100% that your Tablet is the WW version and not the TW or US version!

The zip firmware file was on the root of the EXTERNAL SD card. I did go into bootloader and select RCK from the menu, then install zip file --choose zip from /storage /USB disk1h -- T4_SDUPDATE.zip.
I am going to try the other versions of the firmware.

okay, since you have a custom recovery the zip file is not detected. CM and CWM recovery are not the same. you should be able to find an installable stock file somewhere or try another rom. As long as you have a working recovery installed then you should be good to go for any updates.
This is your best bet for near stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf701/development/rom-t2999102

What recovery is he using? twrp or recovery?
To help some more informations would be great to make shure he won t brick his phone there are also other options like installing twrp and flash a custom rom aso...
I think you talk about recovering your phone? And not the recovery partition?
What is your current build, and what are you trying to recover to? You probably just have to find the right ROM for it to work.
I am just new to this flashing custom roms or firmware and twrp also. And dumb enough to not back it up.
I wanted to install arrow os in my phone. When I was about to wipe data, cache and dalvik, I accidentally checked metadata also and wiped. Then problems created more problems.
problems right now:
I cant put a file in my storage
Internal Storage is just blank on my pc
No OS
TWRP on both slots
please help me i really needed help and knowledge about it
I hope the attachment helps
EDIT--
Solutions to my problems:
WHEN you softbrick your phone and you only have fastboot and nothing else
Thanks to this guy..
SOLUTION: download your original firmware but choose the fastboot one and not recovery after download just unzip. Double click flash_all.bat and its back to square one.
WHEN you dont know how to flash or the file you have is .img
SOLUTION: find a guide in xda because apparently you can install a .img file in "fastbootd" mode
the guides here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...sues-all-without-any-custom-recovery.4337099/
COMMENT: not the usual thats what on top of youtube search.
WHEN you see errors in twrp/orangefox recovery you might get panic and search for solution.
COMMENT: try to find and use a solution that doesnt delete something first. In my experience it got bricked even more.
Thanks to the people who commented back on my post and helping me get to know what to do next.
Try putting the stock ROM on a SD card or usb (if you have a dongle).

SD card that you put on beside the sim? if yes
Do I download stock ROM in official website? Cus I dont have 1 right now
then flashing it there by using twrp? is that how its gonna run? because i really dont wanna assume and create another problem
Try flashing this stock ROM (global) from a SD card, in TWRP. It's a recovery package, so you can install it as any zip.
Also, can you boot into fastboot/bootloader from TWRP?
Plus, where did you get the ArrowOS image? There are no builds, official or not.

I can now see it, I think I reflashed twrp, now I can, but I cant install because of failed to mount system_root and I have done change file system of data to Ext4. when it resets it comes back to f2fs
edit: change file system of data to Ext4 failed
edit2: thank you guys really for commenting back and helping me

Should have said "extract the file, there's a zip or img inside", don't change the file extension.
Update: I found the guide how to sideload ... just change the Ext4 to F2fs
[Tutorial] TWRP ADB Sideloading

forum.xda-developers.com
and I was able to sideload it and then got MIUI finally
what worried me is there were still errors like system_root, vendor and product... and its running fine now I guess but im back on track to make it to arrow OS.... I hope no mistakes this time like deleting metadata.
Thank you all who replied to this post , I really do. Thank you

Whenever I fastboot boot twrp3.6.1-rosemary it fails, says too many links, and when I fastboot reboot recovery it boot loops

A12 shouldn't be a problem.
Probably you should flash another vbmeta.img.
OR
I don't know if there is an .img twrp around, but if there is you can:
Code:
fastboot boot {recovery.img}
and then [Advanced]>[Install Recovery Ramdisk].
