Hey, I got my transformer yesterday, and for some reason this is the 2nd time this has happened, fully charged battery, but the device won't power on. Attempted to plug into power but no dice. Held the power button for 30 seconds, nothing, held the power and volume up and nothing. Yesterday when this happened I plugged it into my computer (Windows) and held the power and up buttons and it turned on though it could have been windows detecting the drivers. Anyone else having this? Any suggestions? I haven't had a chance to test again and see if I can bring it back through that trick yet, but I will. Then I'll try a factory reset and see if it resolves the issue. I would hate it if this is a defective unit, that's for sure esp since they are so backordered. Outside of that I love the device.

when your device isnt coming on, does your computer give you a usb notification? You could be putting it in apx mode on accident.

I will find out in a few. The thing is this has happened when I left the device unplugged and in sleep when driving to/from work. Yesterday plugging it back into the computer brought it to life. Nothing else did. Not sure what apx mode is even.

EDIT: Ok, turns out it get stuck in some weird power mode. I plugged it into the computer with no resolution, when I held the power button for 10 seconds, then waited 5 and pressed it again, the device powered on. I suspect it might be an issue involving detecting WiFi access points when driving or something else. I'll Factory Restore and see what happens.
try turning off screen lock.

I had that sometimes in the first day I had it, after that it hasn't happened. No factory reset, just make sure to do a hard shutdown (powerbutton 10 sec~) while it's booted and it should fix the issue.

Yea, it had happened once already, and again. I'll be testing today when I leave work, factory reset and see what happens. Should it continue, I'll go to the next step. I'm just not sure what it is. Interesting bug to say the least.

From the way you are describing getting it to work again, it sounds like you were in apx mode...

I still don't really know what APX mode is, from the limited things I have seen about it, in order to get into such, the device has to be powered off first. As far as I can tell, my device isn't randomly powering itself off and automatically going into APX mode. This happens without me touching the device. When I did the power off and on today, it wasn't plugged into the computer at all. There was no recognition from the computer that the device was plugged in.
Well as of today, my EEE Transformer is dead. Will not power on the screen, Asus offers a repair of 14 business days, unacceptable.
Powering on issue
Woah...I was scared to death when mine didn't turn on the next morning that I got the device. Charged it for an hour and try to turn on again, nothing.
Holding the buttons several different ways that I know how to reset it didn't work. Finally I held the button down for more than 10 seconds. Wait a few seconds, then it powered on. Why didn't they make a hard reset since you can't remove battery!??? Hope this is just some fluke and could be updated with firmware.

Alas, mine didn't get resolved with that, computer detects it now, but no screen response. Asus tells me 14 business days to fix then says try to restore it with the Kernel Source Code. Unfortunately I can't see a way to do such from the folder and they decided to disconnect me.
There is a bug with the default lock screen that makes it so the screen doesnt power on occasionally. In order to work around this you need to disable the lock screen in the settings, or change it from the default one.
Obviously in order to do this initially it needs to be powered on and so you can see it. Therein lies your problem of course. To get around this, charge up your device so you know it has power, use the force power off method (10-12 second press of the power button), wait a few seconds (30+), then power on the device normally (5-6 second press of the power button).
If your screen doesnt come on after that, try a couple more times. It really is an RMA job if it continues to fail. If it does come on, let it boot up to the lock screen, and dont let the screen go off, keep it 'alive', unlock the device and change the lock screen in the options, to either be switched off, or to anything other than default.
This wont work for everyone, as obviously a few may actually have duff screens, but for some of you, it may just be the lock screen bug you are getting unlucky with.
Yea, I seem to have not only the lock screen bug but a defective screen. Unacceptable to me, but hey, what can I do? I've been disconnected 5 times so far, waiting on a manager and will be requesting a faster resolution than what they are offering me. (10-14 Business days is unacceptable)

i am in the same boat as you, luckly i picked up the acer for the weekend because i didnt think i was going to get the asus. glad i did
I'm waiting on hold with Asus to see if they will do an Advance Repair, basically I get put on the line for the full price of the device until they declare mine broken since the return period on the Acer is 14 days at best buy. Quite outside of the repair period.

Had to escalate it up to management and expressed I wanted an advance repair and was willing to give them my credit card number so they could place a hold on the card for the amount of a replacement until they got mine. Has to be escalated above the rep should hear back in a couple hours. If not I have an extension and will call back

I have been running Zeus Rom for months now and everything has been fine. Until today. I was just on my phone today and it cut off. Then it went into a boot loop. Won't go past the Samsung screen. I can't find any solution to get the phone into download mode. I have read everything. Switched computers, tried different ports and even switched usb cords. Even tried several combinations of buttons to no avail.
Here is what happens when I try to get into download mode:
I hold down up and down volume, insert battery and then plug in usb cord. I see a spinning wheel and empty battery sign. Then it cuts right back off and does it all over again. Could this be a battery issue or what?
My phone has been bricked before I fixed it with no problems. This has got me stumped. Something is preventing me from getting into download mode and keeping me in boot loop.

To get to download mode, be sure to plug in USB before putting the battery in, and keep holding down the volume buttons down for some time.
If the battery isn't showing a charge, though, then let it charge. If it isn't charging, try another cable, and then maybe a new battery.

Tried another battery I had, not fully charged, and the first time I put it in the bottom buttons lit up and the phone booted up, only to cut back off and do the same thing again with the boot loops. It too showed this battery to be completley dead. I am not sure if that is so or not as I have't used this battery in a while.
I am charging both batteries now to try to get them charged. I have one in a wall charger and hte other in the phone plugged into the wall. The one in the phone is still showing no charge as the phone keeps cutting on and off and showing the battery sign witha spinning circle.
I have no idea whats going on but need to find out soon!

You dont have to plug it in before puting the battery in...i never do...
How i get in download
1) pull battery
2) put battery back in
3) hold volume up + down simutaniously
4) while holding volume plug usb cord into phone
it sounds like he is pretty much doing it the way i do except for the volume he does before putting in battery...should work either way
Could it be a problem with your motherboard/mainboard whatever you wanna call it? When did you get the phone? If its been under a year i would file warranty with samsung...not att. If it is the mother board they probably will never even know its rooted or anything since it wont even turn on...and no software will fix it...
There still is a chance they will find out its rooted and has a custom rom on it...but i think the chances of that are highly unlikely...so i would go for warranty...

UPDATE:
This is so weird. After nothing working all day, I finally remembered something. About 15 mins before my phone started this today, I dropped my phone while getting out of my truck. I didn't think anything about because I have a double layer case on it. But this evening, I remembered that and I thought maybe that had somethign to do with it. So what else could I do? Bang the phone on the ground again. So I tapped it a few hard times on the ground and sure enough the lights on teh bottom on the phone came on and it booted up and has stayed up.
Apparently the drop this morning has done something inside the phone. Do you guys have any idea what this could be? What could dropping the phone have to do with a boot loop and what could be solved by banging it on the ground again?
Maybe it is luck, but it is working. I just feel it will happen again soon as something is wrong inside the phone.

Oh, okay, cool. I always do it how I described, so it must work either way. I was just trying to help the OP not go into the battery charging screen.
And to the OP: Bummer, it sounds like you have some busted hardware, but hopefully it will keep working now.

loose connection insider vs corrosion issue I mentioned to you earlier.
if you're under warranty, flash a stock package and warranty.
if you're not under warranty, learn how to drop your phone correctly.

Oh my god. the same thing happened to me last night. I've been searching all day trying to figure out how to fix it and I came across your post saying you just banged it on the ground a few times and it started working. I did the same thing and sure enough, it started working again! It's so weird. What I don't get is that I didn't drop my phone at all yesterday. It just did it randomly while i was texting.
Once, i was halfway using whatsapp then phone turned off automatically, when I turn it back on i was able to boot up past the bootscreen until i got this: Refer to Picture 003.jpg
Then I did a complete reset via CWM. I even installed CNA 3.6.6 (I was using 3.5.0 before this)
Still no avail, do I've decided to flash back to 4.0.4 to see whether things are working out or not.
I did it via fastboot.
Same thing.
What could be the problem?
Do take note that even though in the picture I'm booting it up in safe mode but still no avail for normal mode.
And, when I'm charging my phone with the power switched off I'm getting this: Refer to Picture 004.jpg
Supposedly it's a battery icon that indicates charging activity but I'm getting a battery icon with (blinking) exclamation mark.
What's wrong?

warning! TL; DR post about what happened to my phone.
I've left my phone (accidentally) under heavy rain for almost an hour.
By the time I got my phone back it's still working, but with a (kinda) faulty loudspeaker.
Others went a-okay.
I turned off and let it stay put for everything inside to dry up then charge. Realized that I can't charge at all. I can't even connect to computer or whatnot. So I brought it to a service center. They told me it's mobo issue and I've decided not to fix it (cause my warranty's over)
That day when I brought it back from service center, miraculously I can charge my phone! was happy at first then I kept on charging. Then story continues as first post.
same thing here!

i bought my nexus from a man for 25$ because it wasnt able to charge and when u turned it on it just went stuck on the motion starting picture.
so i went to a technician and he told me to buy the usb port , i found the original port for nexus s on ebay, so he fixed it...
since then i am able to charge it (with a exclamation sign if its off) and i have even intalled every rom i have found here, via odin/fastboot/CWM, etc. but nothing... so it keeps on stucked on the starting picture, sometimes just SOMETIMES it went up like yours, *going up and saying/showing Android System icon, batterymetter on the upper part of the screen, middle screen; saying power off, shutting down, after some secs, vibrates and goes OFF.
only with slimbeam i got that behavior always turn it on.
p.s. the USB port was unable because phone have been wet (from the other owner hands)...

Nexus S i9023 Android 4.1.2 Update
Yesterday i got OTA update 4.1.2 in my Nexus S i9023 in India. But after restarting the system for installation for some reason the update was not done. After hard booting the device when it logs on, it was showing 4.1.1. But when i am checking whether any system update is there, it is showing no update. How to get it again ????
I know a decent amount about rooting and roms, but I have an issue I haven't been able to figure out yet. My GTP3113 died last night, I plugged it into a couple different wall sockets because when I plug in the device it automatically turns on to the charging screen like it should, but after a few seconds the device automatically reboots back to the charging screen. My guess is that it doesn't have enough to time to charge before it reboots (which uses the small charge it got in that few seconds).
I had just flashed the\ 4.1 leak from samsung, the device rebooted fine after the flash at least once, problem didn't start until the battery died.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
Stupid question but have you let it charge over night ? I've had issues like that before and an over night charge sorted the problem out. Hopefully that will work or at least let you get into recovery.
Hope it helps and good luck !
Try plugging it into your computer or somewhere else with a usb slot and let it charge a bit. For whatever reason, some peoples galaxy tab 2's won't charge unless they are plugged into a via USB.

Thanks for your suggestions. I had tried both of them at some point. What ended up working was timing it exactly right to get to recovery, from there it accepted a charge and I was able to clean flash a rom to get it working again. It was odd. Thanks again.

We've tried plugging it in using several different combinations of cables/adapters/computers without success. The hard reset, holding power & volume up, has no effect (probably because it doesn't have enough charge).
Current suggestions around the office include putting it in the microwave on high for a few minutes or taking it out behind the office and using a gun to put it out of our misery... any less extreme suggestions?
Hello. I have problems with my device, a Motorola Razr xt925 HD. It doesn't start, it just keeps the green led blinking when connected to wall charger, and when I plug the USB, makes a sound of a new device detected but only for a few seconds then it makes a sound of an unplugged device, and so on. It doesn't respond to any combination of buttons. I let it charging overnight, even though the battery was nearly full before this happened. Don't know if this is relevant but before this happened, I was going to flash stock Retail Brazil firmware by fastboot and got a flash failure. I turned it off and then it wouldn't turn on again. I never had this happened, I had problems but I always solved them all. Not this time hopefully you guys can help me or tell me what it could be, because I doubt it was the battery. I leave you a video showing my case.
i dont know for certain but the only time i see that green light is when battery is ou and i put it to chrge. Could your phone be in apfastboot and can t charge. It is a bit of a tough situation to troubleshoot.
Did you try keys combo to put it in fastboot, and test it by flashing
or maybe use rsd lite see if it shows you device connected? maybe then you can flash stock
i am sure there are other possibilities, let s hear from you
There's no way to enter in Fastboot by key combos and RSD lite doesn't show my device :/ maybe I need a factory cable, just in case that the battery is empty. I need more suggestions please
me paso lo mismo
did you find any solution?
im having this problem after i start using KK 4.4.2 seems like the phone go to sleeping mood by it self while my screen is locked so i have to keep clicking at power and volume up and down to restart the device now im looking for an update or a fix for this problem, another problem is the device WIFI do not catch my house signal while im away 10 feet from the house the software have bugs
I've been using CM 11 (KK 4.4.4) with no issues. This is a flash problem or maybe the battery. My phone is still dead btw I see that two more people are having the same problem here... we need a solution please.

Any update with this? Did you try with a factory cable?
I'm going through the same thing , I read the other day that and the driver installed and nothing more .
keep trying to revive my device.
I'm going through the same thing. When I plug it into my pc , under device manager it shows "Human Interface Device" then it unmounts itself then remounts itself then unmounts. Over and over..... I've even replaced the battery.

There is some discussion of the Razr HD in this thread. It looks like someone with an unlocked device would need to dd their bootloader partition for this method to work.
A few years later .... Any solution? rsrsrs
any update on this scenario?
i have this situation too and the time could give us an answer, i am searching again, i took my device to some 'phone repair stores' and in less than 5 minutes they told me that the phone was dead, but i have my last doubts
Just to add an update here
I ended up with the Green light only and blank screen after trying to fix a battery issue, despite getting a number of batteries my phone wasn't accepting the batteries.
I remembered a battery issue a long while back, so went to reflash my phone to see if it resolved it.
I ended up with the green light and blank screen and no matter what buttons, it would just make a noise then keep rebooting.
I ended up using the Unbrick bat file.
RSD Lite was briefly showing a Medfield device of something starting with Med, but since the phone kept rebooting I couldn't reflash it again.
I did the Pwr and Vol down and as soon as I saw the device, I clicked the UnBrick bat and it managed to get my Moto logo up.
I then booted to Fastboot mode and reflashed and my phone is back,
See this link for the UnBrick, but when you do it, you have to be fast to catch it while the device is seen, otherwise the phone reboots after 4s or soo.
