Thanks to walaway for being persistent and helping test to get the graphics to actually display on the screen.

Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Phone look:


Tablet look:


CHANGELOG for 2.4.2.0:
-Add screen timeout - screen will turn off automatically after 60 seconds, saves battery and prevents screen burn-in especially on AMOLED devices
-Add a brightness setting (requires device specific setup and only some devices have been added)
-Add a root checker and offer to install SuperSU if the device isn't already rooted
-Add a write buffer to libtar backups, significant improvements to speeds when backing up to exFAT target, minor improvements for other file systems
-Check and offer to fix root permissions if broken
-Add an option for a 24 hour clock display instead of AM/PM (aka military time)
-Move stock recovery reflash check to occur during the reboot cycle
-Add support for some MTK6xxx devices
-Change libtar to vfork to help prevent memory problems
-Add a "clicked" effect to most buttons, file selector, and listbox
-Improve timezone listbox to be more like file selector (per pixel kinetic scrolling, etc)
-Remove some no longer used settings (Forced MD5 sum on zips, size checking on image backups)
-Other minor bugfixes and improvements

DOWNLOAD:
The fastest and easiest way to install TWRP is to use the GooManager app:
Play Store Link
Direct Download
1) Install GooManager from the Play Store
2) Open GooManager and provide root permissions
3) Hit Menu (or the button with the 3 dots on your screen) and then Install OpenRecovery
OR:
You can find more information and download links on our website!

BUGS:
If you have found a bug, please consider posting it to our github issues log. It's pretty much impossible for us to keep up with the more than 40 threads that we have for the devices that we "directly" support. If you have a significant problem that cannot be answered in this thread, your best bet is to PM me directly, contact us via our website, or find us in our IRC channel below. If you see someone that's struggling, feel free to point it out to us. We need your help to help us keep track of all of our devices! Thanks!

SUPPORT:
Live support is available via #twrp on Freenode with your IRC client or just click this link.

Reserved.

Note, I don't own a PadFone 2 so I probably won't be visiting this forum very often if at all. If you need me, come find me on XDA, the IRC channel, or post bugs on github.

Try reinstalling drivers, if not. Might be root unable to mount

I could be wrong, but given the size of each of the firmware updates from Asus, I suspect there's a fresh Recovery image in each one of them.

Have you tried a manual firmware update to see if it reverts Recovery?

2.5.0 is fine, the previous version caused issues with the *.25 roms.

I am running 2.5.0 now and like it a lot and easier to use the CWM

What is the step by step process to flash the stock bootloader, I know I am being stupid but I cant seem to work it out.

Reboot into fastboot/bootloader and make sure fastboot can see your phone by doing "fastboot devices" if you see something there you can now flash the stock recovery by doing "fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img" that should do it for you
