I have a NetGear R8000 flashed with Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r35770 std (04/20/1Cool.

I am wanting to update it to the latest stable build. First I tried logging in to DD-WRT going to the admin page and uploading the new bin file. It said at 1% til it timed out.
Next I tried TTL.

CFE> nvram erase && reboot
rebooted
CFE> TFTPD

them using Win7 tftp
C:\R8000>tftp -i 192.168.1.1 put R8000.bin
Transfer successful: 27385856 bytes in 88 second(s), 311202 bytes/s

CFE> tftpd
Start TFTP server
Reading :: Done. 27385856 bytes read
Reading ::

waited a few mins and power cycle

The router still boots to DD-WRT v3.0-r35770 std (04/20/1Cool.

What did I do wrong?

Along shot: use another browser, I use good old Internet Explorer, especally chrome can be troublesome.

Another long shot: maybe the builds are not updated in the builds databaes?

Try builds from Kong?
