So I updated my bootloader to 4.2 fine, now I'm unable to install twrp, fastboot just comes back with:
sending 'recovery' (7872 KB)... FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
or sometimes I just hangs on sending...

I can't do anything :/

can anyone help? :(

Are you sure you are using the correct version of twrp? It is bootloader specific and in my experience WW OR US specific. Make sure you are using the 4.2 compatible version. If that is all good, try downloading again. Maybe you got a bad download or bad cable

My guess is something is wrong with your Windows installation of the Android SDK. Perhaps the USB drivers of your tablet as well?

I've tried reinstalling it all, some fastboot commands work fine, I just can't send the recovery over :/ fastboot erase cache works perfectly :/

Try a different USB port. I had this same problem when I used the front port on my computer. Once I moved to the back port everything worked like a dream. If that doesn't help it might be a bad cable.

Okay new problem, I got that working, and i flashed the 2.5 4.2 bootloader, but nothing works, nothing would boot, and now the recovery says version is 2.4.3.0, but the downloaded file that i flashed says its 2.5.0.0-4.2, it cant mount anything, I cant even get back to the fastboot screen, it just boots to recovery
edit: it can only mount the system partition too, nothing esle :/
