Is my Transformer in stock state ?

I am new in this subject, but I have been reading a lot.
If you followed the steps exactly, put back a stock ROM without SU package (from the picture I see you have a stock version number, 8.6.5.21, but It doesn't say about SU, look in Apps), and replaced the ClockWorkMod recovery with stock Asus recovery (green android with exclamation mark), then it should be back as stock.

Try to boot into recovery mode, as long as CWM is gone and android recovery is back you are indeed back to stock ROM there..
Edit: BTW if you updated through the ROM directly from Asus then you are stock, as you need a stock ROM and stock recovery to apply official OTA updates.
Cheers, and congrats on being stock again (??) lol

So this is stock recovery. I failed to check out the stock recovery before I rooted and put CWR on there to make my initial back up (old habits that bled over from phone-my bad). Anyways, comparing to phone recoveries, there are usually 4 items listed in stock recovery. You know the standards, wipe, reset,...but does the tablet have that? I flashed the stock recovery package and when I rebooted, I hit the power + vol down and the up like CWR and it went to that screen with the ! and android with no options. I tried it again, only this time it gave me 2 options, Hot and Cold reboots (I know what those are).
So my question is if merely having the ! and andriod is in fact stock recovery. Getting used to separating phone from tablet but still learning and reading and reading and reading.

Thanks for all
just 2 points :
1- after i download the update and press install the tablet turned off !! when i turned it on the update completed successfully !! is it usual ????
2- i tried to enter the recovery through ( press power button & on asus logo press vol - then vol + and didn't enter the CWM recovery !! So am i on stock recovery now ??

Yes you are stock, also as luca_c666 pointed out, if you flashed a rom directly from Asus then you are stock because you can't flash those roms when you have a custom recovery.

Yes that is stock recovery, it looks for Asus signed files on the external sd card, named either EP101_SDUPDATE.zip or RR_epad-user-x.x.x.xx.zip where RR = region stamp (US, TW, HK, DE, UK, WW, etc) and x.x.x.xx = firmware version. For example, when i wanted to circumvent the broken root i had to use file WW_epad-user-8.6.6.19.zip placed on my sd card, stock recovery will find this file and flash it..i believe OTA updates load into a cache folder in the system, so i guess if you don't have an external sd you could put the file there too, im sure it simply scans these locations in sequence until it finds an Asus signed file that will install.

Thank you everybody

Flash it again in Odin but this time uncheck auto reboot. After it finishes flashing, wait 10 seconds, unplug the tab, and boot into recovery (power + volume up.) Then flash SuperSU in recovery and wipe cache and Dalvik.

recovery is volume down right? not volume up
ok after doing power and volume DOWN i was able to get into twrp, thanks to your unchecking auto reboot trick. Nice call!! does superuser have to be flashed? i think i accidentally downloaded the apk....

On my tab its volume up (because it's 7-inch.) Glad you got recovery. Yes, superuser has to be flashed to root. Flashing will install the apk in the system partition and get the su binaries in place. Installing the apk won't because it cannot access the system partition. Once it is flashed, you will be rooted and can access the system and root partition.

yeah i think i unzipped it before i put it on the sdcard of the tablet. So all I had was the apk, I redownloaded the zip and flashed it and i think i'm all good now. Gonna try a rom now, any suggestions for a minimalistic rom tweaked for max performance?

SlimKat is. Flash it and Slim Mini Gapps, reboot, do setup, reboot back into recovery and flash AA-Anykernel Slim Test2 and Vendor-Blobs for great performance and battery life. Recovery is volume up on the tab 10, it just looks like down because the volume buttons are reversed on that tab. If you boot into the system and push what you think (and I thought) is volume down, it will go up. I had this tab earlier and it was confusing :/

EDIT: after you flash SlimKat, you do not need to flash superuser or SuperSU. SlimKat is a rooted ROM.

[Q] Took OTA After Root And Can't Boot Into Recovery

Hey guys, so I had previously rooted my Galaxy S III (SCH-I535) but was running the standard Verizon-issued Android 4.3. I stupidly took the OTA to 4.4.3, thinking my root was safe because I attempted to use a root keeper. I lost root, and I also appear to have lost the ability to boot into recovery.
My phone otherwise works fine - I can use it as designed to my hearts content, and can also boot into download mode. However, when I try to boot into recovery (using Home + Volume Up + Power), I get the Samsung splash screen, with the words "Custom" and a broken/unlocked lock. The screen then goes black for about 30 seconds, it buzzes, and then reboots into a normal boot (starting over again at the aforementioned Samsung splash screen).
I attempted to push TWRP using Odin, but that fails:

BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
SECURE CHECK FAIL : recovery (this last line appears after attempting to push TWRP)
Any thoughts on how to get some kind of recovery working? I appreciate any advice anyone can offer.

Your now on a locked bootloader. You can't flash a custom recovery other than safestrap
Here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797314
From what I've been reading the only legit way to keep root through otas is the option in supersu to attempt to keep root after an ota. There's no 100% guarantee but some people have reported it to work, and towelroot may be your only working option for root

me176c(same intel Bay Trail Z3745 and simular spec) has firmware in asus website, but me181c don't. so, i cannot do anything
I don't know if the OP fixed his boot issue, but I wanted to post my experience with this tablet. I tried to root using RootZenFone 1.4.2 and it failed. Found a newer version 1.4.5r so I uninstalled 1.4.2. Then disaster struck. Now, keep in mind, I copy my downloads to my SD card and delete them from the device in case I need the files again or I brick the device and have to return it.
I went ahead a rebooted and ended up with the No Command and the dead Android. Holding the Volume Up while pressing power put me into fastboot, so I tried to do a recovery from there. No dice, same No Command. I tried simply powering off and tried again. Still either No Command or just Fastboot. While in fastboot, I tried to use Kango to root (Hoping it'd fix whatever damage RootZenFone did) and kept getting NeedADB errors. Obviously I couldn't turn on USB debugging.
Then, I decided one last ditch effort before I took the tablet back to best buy (Technically I hadn't voided the warranty since it never did root and attempting to root would be virtually impossible to detect since no files were left on the device - they're on my SD card). I powered off the tablet. While the tablet was still plugged into my PC, I held BOTH the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons and then pressed power. I got the typical ASUS logo, which I was getting before the No Command and Fastboot, but this time the tablet just sat there at that logo. I let it be for a few minutes while I took the dogs out. Maybe about 10 minuted. Suddenly, I heard the new device sound from my PC. it was installing the MTP driver! Looking at the tablet, it now had the Intel Inside logo (That I did not get while I was having boot issues) and about 45 seconds later the tablet is booted normally.
So, for what it's worth, I'd say hold both volume buttons as you power it on and see what happens.

needing help
First, i would like to say sorry i am not sure how i would post under the correct area. Just saw the reply so figured i would write here.
I have been doing research on how to fix my Trio Stealth-10 ( thought it was a 10.1 but now not sure) MST10-21. 16 gb.
I have done all the factory resets and erasing data and what not under the boot load (not sure if thats what it was called) but the one where i hold down the power button and the vol - did all that i can get my tablet to connect and do all i need it to but now it isnt downloading any aps under google play or updating them so i just have a factory tablet that i cannot add anything on. sometimes will seem like it tried to down load and will just say no internal storage or memory something like that has not said anything lately since i have tried today.
please break things down barney style for me as well i can do comp stuff sometimes but i will say all of you on this site are much smarter then me thanks for the help guys
oh if i can have someone tell me where to actually post this would be awesome
Asus ME181C k011 Bootloop Fix
I bit the bullet today and put this thing in a bootloop to test a restore method. Happy to say it worked. Here we go:
1. https://cloud.mail.ru/public/2b47381cb37c/ADB.rar - This contains adb and fastboot if you don't already have them installed. This also contains the system image that we're going to use temporarily to get this thing restored.
2. Hook it up to your computer and load up Fastboot on the tablet (Volume+ and Power while booting. Let go of power after the logo shows up).
3. Flash the System image ( fastboot flash system system.img) followed by the boot image (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
4. Reboot.
5. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95857557620392052 - Next, we're going to use a temp version of CWM-Recovery to reinstall firmware. Enable USB debugging, run launcher.bat, type "ACCEPT" and choose T3.
6. You'll auto reboot into CWM-Recovery. Grab the official firmware from the Asus site and install the zip from SD. Once complete, you'll need to reroot the device most likely. If you have a SuperSU zip, install it after you've restored the system.
You're done. This also opens us up for just about anything. Go play with your system. As long as you don't mess up your boot loader, this should save you.
Thanks so much RemmyLee
i just wanted to join and say thanks to RemmyLee.
i rooted my me181c and deleted a whole bunch of stuff i shouldn't.
i could get in to recovery but after that "No Command" screen it wouldn't do a thing. i followed RemmyLee's instructions up to step 4 and then did a reboot as told. Whereupon it found the extracted UL-K011-WW-3.1.23.172-user.zip on the root of my SD card and asked me to do an update which succeeded.
Thanks RemmyLee !

Please help! I did exactly as you said, but when I get into CWM and choose the file from my sdcard, it comes back and says:
Code:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
And goes straight back to the menu. No error messages or anything.
There is another zip file inside UL-K011-WW-3_1_23_172.zip.
1) Extract UL-K011-WW-3_1_23_172.zip
2) Rename UL-K011-WW-3.1.23.172-user.zip to user.zip.
Then follow Tethered CWM recovery steps.

What do you expect? You've erased everything from it with that Factory Reset. How it is supposed to boot without a ROM on it?
Keep vol down pressed while it is rebooting, eventually it'll go to bootloader. You probably haven't press it at the right timing. Press power off till it shuts down, then press vol down and keep it pressed until you get the bootloader. Then you can go to recovery and mount to PC, transfer a ROM zip and flash it.
By any chance do you have a nandroid backup of the rom that worked before? Probably not on sdcard (if you erased that also) but on PC. You could try restoring that one from recovery

Question Root first or TWRP first

I've never heard of that. Can you post a pic of the screen where you get this message? Also, after flashing TWRP you need to boot into recovery, not download.

After I flash when I reboot to recovery, Should I have the USB plugged in or not? Or doesn't it matter?
The first pic is in download mode when I flash TWRP. The second one is what I get after I flash TWRP and reboot by holding Vol down and PWR at the same time and, as soon as the screen goes dark I switch to Vol up and power. The last one is the log and file I'm flashing in Odin. Let me know if I missing something dumb or if you have any ideas on how to get into TWRP. Thanks Yall!

I have my T733 rooted but no TWRP. I haven't seen anyone say have. And without TWRP or fastboot, I don't know of a way to try a GSI.
I did flash TWRP for the Galaxy A52s 5g It has the same chipset and CPU but still no good. I wonder if someone around here could port it over? I'm not that level of nerd, I do tier 2 support.
