Stuck no recovery. No nothing.

I have a sl101. I only get eeepad screen. My son did something to the machine. I can get it to say booting recovery but nothing happens. I also can get a text that says cold booting Linux. Again nothing happens. Nvflash says USB write fail. But when I check adb the device is recognized. Is there a way for me to adb push a recovery in there for me to boot too, so I can reflash a rom. I have a little dilema here. I also was wondering if I can flash rom thru adb. I read once that's how they used to do it on g1. I don't know if I am speaking accurately though. Any kind of light shed on me will be greatly appriciated

not sure about the slider but i had a customer return yesterday with this exact issue on the tf101 and i couldnt get out of it. the tf just kept switching itself back on and getting stuck on the splash screen.
found this set of instructions but im not sure if its what you need or if it will work:
http://androidroot.mobi/technical/asus-eee-pad-transformer-tf101-root-cwm-recovery/
good luck

That is exactly what is going on with mine. The slider is basicly the same thing. I plug it in and I tries to boot. I thought you had to be booted into recovery or the rom for adb to work? That's why I believe this method you just revealed to me. Or some variation of it will work. I will be trying shortly.

nvflash if your TF101 is compatible model.. (must B60 and below).
Or read Wolf's thread HERE. It might helped everyone here..

Thanks but everything needs adb connexion and as apx is not working, i can't connect ADB..
I have a B50 model

Nobody have a clue ?
well, I have to send it back to my reseller that will change it but before that I need to delete clockwork mode or brick it, how can i do ?
I tried every thread here, update rom does nothing, looks like it does not write anything on the tablet
Thanks in advance

try to follow this procedure...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25636698&postcount=5
let me know

Hello, thanks, but as I can't get to apx mode, I can't use nvflash, so still stuck with my recovery, I tried to modify super Wipe package to do things but can't get through...
If someone can make a package to delete recovery, then I can try it on my tablet, I really yneed it to be bricked cause now it load with Rogue's recovery on and on, so the reseller will new it has been modified and I will have to pay to get it back ...
Thanks in advance

with the procedure posted in the previous link you don't need APX mode and don't need NVflash...
Just boot your TF in recovery mode and plug it to your pc...
remove all previous drivers and install the new one that you can find in the post
ciao
ps... at the end of the procedure you will have your TF101 with stock rom and stock recovery

I will try but even when I am on recovery, nothing appears in Hardware management, no recognition from My computer, still strange... And when I power + vol down key, It never says to presse vol up in the text in the upper left corner, just says booting linux kernel...
When I try to boot pressing vol up + power, nothing happens, not even the clics that can be heard when it powers up...

I had a similar issue when I used SuperWipe and discovered my ROM on the external SD Card could not be accessed by CWM
I tried pushing the file with adb but kept receiving errors - protocol, etc. I suspected it was a driver issue along with the fact that 64 bit systems don't always play nicely with drivers. I actually dug up an old hard drive and did a very basic install of 32bit Win7. I booted the Transformer into CWM and when I connected it to my PC - I pointed it to the universal naked driver. I was then able to successfully push the rom to internal storage and used CWM to flash it

Hello,
I tried to connect my tablet to an old Windows 2000, but still nothing happens

Hello every one, I finally sendt back my transformer to my reseller, now I can buy a new one...
Thanks again

B70 bricked - is there no way out?

Been modding android devices since the G1 but never got stuck like this before. Already spent hours of searching and googling but couldn't find any definite answer.
My B70 got bricked when using a program to boot into recovery.
Is there any way out or should I just throw it away?
I have a feeling that the device is looking for a recovery on internal SD card and fails. I can see the unit as ADB unit but when trying to connect it says device is offline both in normal boot or in recovery boot.
Been trying putting stock roms on external SD but it never runs it.
Has anyone solved this problem?

Check your SBK version and try to NVFlash
Try to boot recovery/apx wipe permissions /data if possible
post questions in Q&A not Dev

After a lot of examination it has been decided that you have posted this in the wrong section and we shall place it where it should be. Please make sure you post correctly next time.

Like mentioned already, some B70 are SBKv1 meaning nvflashable.
What app did you use to get into recovery causing the "brick"
Can you still get into cwm recovery, ect.
you still have hope if ADB can see it, try to update your driver.
If it work use ADB to push the file you need.

Sorry for wrong thread.
I probably have SBK2 (how to check) because usb just disconnects as soon as I try to run any nvflash stuff.
I also believe that ADB could be the saviour but it says offline. So this could be due to driver issue? Interesting, I shall try on a 32 bit computer.
If I suceed to connect through ADB, can I then flash CWM recovery?

The app I used to get into recovery was just a random boot into recovery app. It worked many times before. I don't think taht app caused this, maybe the recovery files where deleted?

You can use SBKdetect to check your SBK version (linux)
Did you have CWM before? Are you rooted?
What is your tablet doing right now? Stuck at the start up screen?

My tablet was previously running rooted ICS WW .11 with CWM.
Now its just stuck at the first boot image. I can go into same image where it tries to run recovery image by holding vol down. I guess it is standard brick.

Not getting anywhere with ADB, device is offline

hmm.. can you cold boot? just hold vol-down and wait?

Search on here for the universal naked driver. Try that or sometime if you can try a different usb port.

Can you get into CWM Manually?
Hold VOL DOWN and POWER for about 10-12 seconds until some small text appears.
Quickly (within 5 seconds) release both buttons and hit VOL UP to enter RCK (Recovery).
If you can get into CWM this way you should be able to clear some caches and see if it will boot. If need be, you may be able to flash a new ROM if need be.

I only got the naked ADB drivers to work. The real ASUS ones does not work. Only tries 64 bit though.
Of course I tried to go into recovery manually.
Actually I now remember that just before this happened I updated CWM through the clockwork app. Probably updated to a version that does not work.

Since you have ADB working, download a CWM flashable .zip from your favorite recovery thread and extract the recoveryblob.
adb push it to /temp/dd or something similar, then run adb shell, su, and (you will need root/busybox on here) dd if=/your/blob/here of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4.
after running that, run reboot, you should see a blue line and be able to get into a good CWM recovery. never use rom manager.

Thing O doom.
It always says my device is offline using ADB. I have only got naked driver to work.
But now I saw the NVflash for B70+ devices in your post. I will try that tonight.
I have not given up.

Yes, that is probably your only hope if you can't get ADB working, and it just came out! Lucky day

Yes, thank you all!! Finally NVflash for B70+ devices saved my day. Reflashed original ROM.

[Q] Stuck on every ROM

Hi !
I´ve got a serious problem with my device (TF101).:crying:
When I had default ROM by Asus (4.0.3), system sometimes rebooting about twice down per day. But system always booted and worked "fine".
After time a made root (one click root), next I made install recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.8-tf101-repack. Then I made full wipe and flashed ROM. I tried Revolver, Revolution CM10 .. Every rom install is good, but after few hours system frozen.
When I made restart stay stuck on boot logo on every times, helps only full wipe. but after is happend over and over..
Does anybody know what to do?
Thank you so much for your time !
Sorry about my english
Tom

Maybe try an other kernel (kat kernel work fine for me...)

If you want to know "why" it happens, try "adb logcat" while your device is connected and booting forever. It'll show what's going on.
TWRP is the recommended recovery nowadays it seems, you can install it from Goo Manager (link in my sig).

Thank you guys
[ADB logcat] How can I do that? I must install logcat apk into device, turn on debug mod and next ?
Thank you for your answer.

You need to connect your tablet via USB to your computer and have USB debugging enabled in Settings - Dev Options.
Install the universal naked drivers for the TF101 to get the ADB device recognized.
Then get the adb.exe file from the Android SDK.
In a command prompt on your PC run the command "adb logcat" from the folder with the adb.exe file in it.

Hi Tom,
Looking at your post, I am curious how you went from CM10 back to ICS. Did you restore a Nandroid or just simply flash an ICS ROM straight away? The thing is, you can't go from JellyBean back to ICS as the partition layouts are different.
Here is my thinking. Use Easyflasher from the Development section and flash back to stock ICS. You can find the stock firmwares here. You can even flash a custom recovery through EasyFlasher as well.
I think that you need a "Truely" clean restart as I am betting something got cross flashed somewhere.

Okey, I´ll flash stock ROM
but one simply question > i downloaded naked driver > connect with PC (debug mod is on) > in device manager uninstall every befere install drivers > and I update new drivers to ASUS android device and asus MTP device, right?
Must I see new storage disk in My compter(Transformer) or not ? Because I cant see nothing.
Thanks all of you !

No. You download the Naked Drivers and put them somewhere. Then boot your Tablet into APX mode (Power + Volume Up at same time). In APX mode your screen will not turn on nor will it be "seen" as a storage/MTP device. Plug into PC and it should download the drivers itself (if Win7 machine). If not then go into Device Manager and find the APX with the yellow ! next to it. Hit Install Drivers from location and point it to the Naked Drivers you downloaded. From there you should be good to go in EasyFlasher.
Take care though, EasyFlasher will wipe your internal SD.

Same with the ADB driver. It will not be the MTP device, it will be another device in the device tree.

Damn, really in time Thanks:good:
Okey, I switched to APX mode, install manualy naked drivers successfully. After that I start easyFlasher (downloaded custom rom into asusupdate folder).
Next I flashed STOCK .. program progress bar is in 10% and showing "Extract files, please wait" for 10 minutes.. Is normally?
I dont think so .. what now?
Thanks!

It is normal. Took me about 15 mins for it to fully run it's actions.
Not sure about putting a custom ROM in the asusupdate folder though as I think it has to be stock to work correctly. Not sure if you use SBK1 or SBK2. It kind of depends on your device. The EasyFlasher OP tells what the difference is.

Good, im waiting (btw still 10% progress) .. I use SBK2 (on my box of transformer is serial number B80KA ******) I decide is SBK2, right?
For now, I thank you so much !

I do this operation on my notebook (win7) behind me. A i dont see alert with commander rewrite all I press ALL. Next alert was about is in my device in APX mode > OK > finally shows some progress!
Edit:
Yes !! It works ! I have stock rom now !
So main reason why I flash another ROM was than original rom by asus does about 2 restart per day I want to try another rom but, how can i do that? I dont want be in exactly case like now.
Thanks!

Welcome back my friend.
Ok, all you have to do in EasyFlasher is see the box in the upper left corner? It will say recovery. Click the dropdown to pick the recovery that you want (I use TWRP). Hit it and Start. Once it is done, you can reboot just to be safe. Once that pulls up, shut the tablet down. Then use the finger combo to reboot into recovery (Power + Volume Down, see writing in upper left and then hit Volume Up and release Power). It will boot into which ever recovery you chose to flash in EasyFlasher.
The TWPR in Easy is outdated (but still works). Once I go where I needed to go, I installed Goomanager from the market and updated my recovery to most current version.
Good luck and now you know how to get out of a real bad situation. Happy Flashing.

Thanks,
but bad situation is back now, I do what you writed before (your post was sending) I install Rogue and i want start device its again stuck on boot logo :-/ So i switched to APX mode and flash TWRP and wipe all..
Why stuck on boot logo again ?

If you're trying to install 4.2 you need a compatible recovery. You can install the latest TWRP from GooManager (TWRP link in my sig), then 4.2 roms should work without problems.
Edit: I think you need at least TWRP 2.3.2.x

Oh sorry I thought you flashed another rom. You can install logcat live on your device or use "adb logcat" to see what's going on.
Which boot logo? The first one with Asus "innovation" stuff or the one after that with the small text gone?
---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------
Also did you reinstall any apps at all before you flashed your recovery? Maybe it's an app causing it.

[Q] [HELP NEEDED] Asus TF101 Stuck on splash screen ADB doesn't work!

Right, I searched on numerous pages on these wonderful forums, but couldn't quite find what I was looking for. So I'll try my luck here. I'll describe my problem.
My TF101 was rooted using the CWM recovery. After doing more research I found out I shouldn't be doing this. But, unfortunately the damage has already been done. After several succesful ROM installations I wasn't quite happy with, I tried one last CM10 install. That's when it all went to ****. My TF101 has been stuck on the Eee Pad splash screen for nearly 2 months now.
Normally when going into the recovery mode I can simply select install from SD card and install a new rom. Now it can't seem to mount and displays E:Can't mount \SD card or whatever.
Further on, I tried using the ADB tools to manually restore system files. Without luck. After which I tried to install the naked USB drivers using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502. Without luck as well. I simply ran out of ideas.
The thing is, in Device manager I do see a device called Android. But, for some reason I can't seem to install any drivers for it. I guesse this would be the first step towards getting it back to work? Or perhaps I should just get it fixed at the computer store?
Any sugestions would be more than welcome!

Easy Flasher will get you back to stock as long as you can access APX. You will lose all data however.

1st mistake read forum before you do something, coz you would have learnt abt CWM issues, anyway thatsvan old story
You got Two options, find an flash able twrp.zip and flash it using current recovery if its still working otherwise as the other guy says easyflasher
To use easy flash you need
Easy flash software from forum
Universal naked driver installed
Asus firmware and PATIENCE
Follow the steps given in the forum and you should get back a tablet running stock rom, then if you want then use easy flash to root your device again but this time use TWRP recovery.....

Right, so far I've done everything I could find. I have installed the naked ADB files and thus was able to make a connection through USB. However, I wasn't able to push any files onto the tablet through ADB commands.
I entered the (what I assumed to be) APX mode and tried to use EasyFlasher. It seemed to have worked, because a DOS screen asked me whether or not I wanted to overwrite several files. After ending the procedure I rebooted my tablet. And guesse what: CWM is still there and the tab is still stuck on the Splash screen. Also the internal SD still can't be mounted.
What am I doing wrong. I'm slowly but surely going mad here....

hmmm, easyflasher should not prompt you to overwrite anything, it should just wipe it clean. The only prompt is when you select SBK1 or SBK2.
Can you post screenshots? It'd help us understand what exactly is going on...

Right. Apparently I didn't put it in APX mode correctly. Windows asked me to install APX drivers. Which I now did. I then (I assume) was able to install the new recovery. The screen says !!!!phone update succes!!!!!. As we speak I am trying to install the stock ROM. Fingers crossed.....

I'll just sum up what I've been doing so far, because it still ain't working for me....
1) Put the TF101 in APX mode using POWER + VOLUME UP
2) Started up EasyFlasher 0.8.3 and selected "Flash Asus stock zip / Unbrick"
3) When prompted "file ..\temp\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF" already exists I selected "A(u)to rename all"
4) And then starts doing it's thing
5) Stuck at creating and formatting 15 partitions with several three letter codes.
I've ran the program three times now, but without luck. Any sugestions?~
[EDIT]Alright, managed to get it to work! Ended the tasks in through task manager about 4 times, but the 5th time was a charm. Exactly work as said. All thanks to EasyFlasher![/EDIT]

[Q] Bricked TF300T (APX mode only, no nvflash) – any hope?

I bricked a TF300T today, and I'd like to know if there is possibility that it might be repaired.
I was attempting to install CyanogenMod 10.1 on the tablet for my friends, which I offered to do since I have a bit of experience doing similar on other devices. It was running Android 4.2, and had the latest firmware (v10.6.1.15.3, WW). After researching the XDA forums, I unlocked and rooted the device, and installed the TWRP recovery (2.5.0.0). I used TWRP to flash CM 10.1 and the Google apps, but when I tried to boot I got stuck at the Asus logo. After some more research I realized that the official release of CM doesn't work with the 4.2 bootloader, and that if I wanted to install that ROM I would need to downgrade my bootloader (right?).
The trouble occurred during the downgrade. I downloaded the 10.4.2.20 firmware and used flashboot to flash it. The flash completely successfully and I was going to run "flashboot reboot." Thinking I'd save keystrokes on the command line, I hit the up arrow to call up my last command, and meant to delete the last half of it, but I managed to hit 'enter' instead, starting the flash over again. I cancelled the command (^C), which might not have been wise -- but then I made my dumbest move, and powered the device off. (I'm not really sure why; I guess I assumed I'd still be able to get into fastboot mode.)
Now the device will not boot at all, except into APX mode -- i.e., the screen is blank, but when plugged into the computer the device registers. From what I've read here, there isn't really anything useful I can do in APX mode, given that I never setup nvflash, and I can't figure out any way of getting the tablet to do anything else.
Is there anything I've missed? Is there anything I could accomplish by cracking open the tablet (popping out the battery)? I've seen references to replacing the logic board – would that work, and how should I go about this? I know most if not all of these questions have been answered in different places before, and I tried to do my homework, but I figured I'd ask in case anyone had new experience or expertise to share.

I think to only solution is to replace the main board OR buy a new tablet :'(

APX mode is useless without nvflash installed and nvflash can only be installed while on ICS and once you leave ICS you can't go back.
Some Info: the vehicles to recover without nvflash are
1. recovery - stock or twrp
2. adb
3. fastboot
Do any of these work?
Try this link to find ways you may not have used yet -to get to the bootloader - thus recovery or fastboot
[GUIDE] Enter APX mode or Bootloader-recovery menu!
For future reference here is the way I see the recovery and rom matching issue.
4.1 bootloader - 10.4.2.9, 10.4.2.13, 10.4.2.17, 10.4.2.18, 10.4.2.20 - twrp openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-JB.blob
4.2 bootloader - 10.6.1.8 - twrp openrecovery-twrp-2.4.4.0-tf300t-4.2.blob

Thanks for the response. I've already tried the relevant methods in the guide, except for disconnecting the battery. I can get into APX mode -- the tablet registers as an APX device when plugged into the computer -- but I can't get it to enter the bootloader, so recovery, adb, and fastboot do not work. At this point I don't have much hope that the device will ever boot again without replacing the motherboard.

Is there any tips for buying mainboard? Should it be exactly the same as in my tablet (I mean the same region and, therefore, version of ROM installed), maybe serials.
I have a bricked TF300T, and the only way I have to resurrect it - MB replacement. So, please, ANY info will be useful. Thanks in advance.

try to get it into fastboot somehow - i was stuck in apx too but with a bit of trying i was able to get to fastboot (try resetbutton + vol-down, let it completly drain of power, charge it back and try again)
here is what i did after i regained fastboot:

I'm so damn appreciated! Thank you so much)) I'd add this way to get to fastboot - adb reboot fastboot - just from faulty CWM. Other way it didn't worked.

I got mine working this way

I have the same problem...
My TF300T got bricked and now i cant boot at all anymore, i just see the Asus logo.
Vol down and power doesnt work but i think i can boot it into APX mode, screen stays black but my pc recognises an APX device.
At first my pc didnt install the driver but than i found APX drivers in these forums.
I've downloaded the APX drivers from a thread and i can choose to install various drivers, i tried all of them.
The one i think i need is the Asus Transformer ADB interface driver but this one along with every other one i can choose from doesn't work.
After installing and trying fastboot devices and adb devices i never had a device name show up
im kinda stuck right now
Can anyone please give me some advice ?
Cheers, any help is appreciated

Can you explain me step by step what you did to get bricked? Are you on bootloader 4.1 or 4.2+? 10.4.x.x is 4.1 and 10.6.x.x is 4.2+

Bought the Asus tab a year back and kept it original and updated by Asus for a few months.
Begin this year i unlocked it through a guide here on XDA (i dont thin through the Asus APK but another way).
After it succesfully unlucked (you could see "your device is unlocked" in the left top of the Asus boot screen i installed CWM.
After CWM i installed Cyogenmod 10.1 and kept it updated for months
This was all in the beginning of this year...
In june after updating Cyogenmod 10.1 to a newer version it wouldnt boot up anymore (i still had acces to my CWM recovery at this time).
So i switched back to the last working Cyogenmod 10.1 version (think it was 15th or 16th june).
I left it again for 2 months, still everything was fine till i saw that Cyogenmod 10.2 was out on XDA.
The upcomming is all last week;
First i tried to install 10.2 through CWM but my tab wouldnt boot up.
Than i switched recovery through fastboot because i have read that 10.2 was only compatible with TWRP 2.5+ so i got the latest TWRP
(2.6.0.0 i think)
After booting into TWRP i fully wiped the tab (i might have wiped everything because i dont know TWRP so well), after the wipe i wanted to install 10.2 again.
My tab still didnt boot so i got anctious and wanted to switch back to my latest version 10.1 (june 2013 that did work) so i could at least use my tab again.
Installing 10.1 again didnt work through TWRP, after that i came to the conclusion that i couldt install any rom anymore, at every rom i got an error in TWRP so i thought i had the wrong TWRP installed. (see my other post for a link to the screenshot of the error msge, i just cant find it atm).
Last but not least i tried to load my old CWM again as recovery, after i did this i couldnt get into recovery anymore...
Thans basicly the whole story.
Hope some1 can help me out.
Thanks in advance !
Cheers

What happends when you press volume down+ power?
It jeeps rebooting or it goes to black screen? Have you tried pressing the reset button is below the micro sdcard slot.
You should be able to boot any recovery.

is I recall correctly cm switched partition layout to 4.2 on tf300.
if you still have fastboot try my guide to flash stock and then flash recovery and cm10.2. since it sounds a lot like my error I had with cm it should work for you as well.
good luck

I dont have fastboot in any way.
I can only power on the device with volume up + power to enter APX mode, than only my pc sees a USB device.
I tried a lot of differtent drivers but for nome of them i can ADB of Fastboot to the device.
It would help if someone that has managed to unbrick through APX mode posted the right driver for a TF300T
Cheers

Ive tried searching in the SDK forders but i cant find any.
If i try to install drivers automaticly and than point to the root SDK folder i get the windows msge the best drivers are already installed (no matter what driver is in stalled at that time)

don't just point at the folder
manually select the driver for the device from android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
