Is there anyway we can get some screenshots of the recovery working on the tf300

There was a typo in the flashing command - I just fixed it, thanks to klinkdawg for pointing it out.

admittedly, i'm new to fastboot, so i'm guessing i'm missing something completely fundamental. I have however, worked with a number of droids without issue in the past (without any issues i care to recall that is)
Before the typo correction i was having the reported error, and now all i get is the fastboot menu... I'm running cmd and then entering "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.img" with recovery in the same directory. not getting any errors, just the base menu.
as others have reported this working, i think i'm foolishly missing something.
unlocked successfully by the way
thanks

Woo! I am now running CWM as recovery.
Thanks!
Really must be missing something obvious ...

Let's re-do it step by step:
- Put fastboot.exe and recovery.img in C:\recovery\
- Open cmd, type "cd c:\recovery"
- Connect your tablet in fastboot mode
- type fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.img
There's no reason it wouldn't work
I was just referring to the "New hardware found" message, only on windows
Awesome. Can't wait to flash this. Thanks.
still no go
i've tried a few avenues without any success. early on I had a problem with adbwinapi.dll missing, and i replaced it with an older one from an LG Revolution package, i'm guessing this is where i messed myself up. Can someone help me out and post their file from the system32 folder? as of now, any fastboot commands end up showing me the fastboot menu...
also, fairly early on I had an issue with my external sd card. after ejecting it improperly, I wound up with SOD. When cold booting, I accidentally hit RCK and it froze. After a reboot, my RCK no longer worked (gutted android, and I didn't really know if it ever had worked). Once I realized it was the card, everything but the RCK was repaired. just trying to identify all my individual variables
still thinking this package is solid and i have a local error caused by stupidity/beer
thanks very much

Before CWM, my RCK never worked (the opened droid with a red exclamation mark).
To be safe, download the Android SDK from Android Developers official website. Only install "Platform tools" to get fastboot with the right dlls.
tried this too....
still getting the screen describing fastboot actions, even tried placing everything in C:\recovery and following those directions exactly....

going to try on my desktop now. still pretty certain these errors are on my end and not in the package itself.
Great, just figured out that my pad has the serial issue that has been related on the unlock thread now I can't unlock and flash cwm. Fuuuuuuuuuu!

Can you paste the output of "fastboot" command? The -i option should be listed... Do you use the SDK version?
Edit: After investigation, it looks like the standalone fastboot I posted doesn't contains the -i option... So get it from the SDK
(I might upload a new standalone version myself tonight)

157Hi everyone!
I'm proud to present CWM recovery for our beloved TF300T !
Code:#include /* * Your warranty is now void. * * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please * do some research if you have any concerns about this recovery * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. */
Requirements:
- TF300T
- Fastboot (Included in Android SDK, or Google for a recent version. SDK is the best way to go.)
- Unlocked bootloader (look on Asus Support Download)
Step-by-step guide
- Download the right CWM version. If you are running official Jelly Bean ASUS rom, you need the Jelly Bean version. Otherwise, take the normal version.
- Unlock your bootloader with Asus Unlock app
- Connect your tablet to your computer
- Shutdown your tablet
- Hold Power + Vol Down until a message appears (it doesn't appear anymore on Jelly Bean bootloader) ("Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)") : DON'T PRESS VOL UP
- After 5 seconds, a new menu appears (if it's not already there). Press Vol Down once to change to the USB icon, then press Vol. Up to validate (you have to do this in less than 10 seconds, otherwise your tablet will boot Android OS)
- At this point, your computer should recognize Fastboot device (Windows will notify you here, OSX/Linux stays calm)
- Flash recovery image with fastboot: fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.img (if we suppose recovery.img is in your current directory)
- Once the operation is done, type fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot to reboot your tablet
You now have CWM installed. To access it, shutdown your tablet and press Power + Vol Down, then either press Vol Up before the 5s timeout or press Vol Up on the "RCK" icon. After a few seconds, you'll be in CWM interface.
- Can I backup/restore at anytime?
Yes, you can use all CWM features without any restriction.
- Can it break something?
Even in case of error during fastboot, only your recovery partition will be broken. You can reflash it as many times as you want via fastboot, and even with a broken recovery partition you can still successfully boot your tablet.
- Does this bring root?
See second post.
- Does it work with any firmware?
Yes.
- I wiped everything but didn't put a ROM on my sdcard, what to do?!
Calm down, you're not bricked, you're just a bit dumb. Go in "Install zip from sdcard" until you reach list files, so the sdcard is mounted. Then, open a command prompt, and do "adb push c:\path\to\the\rom.zip /sdcard/". Wait, and once done your rom.zip will appear in the files list when you go back and forth in files list.
