[Help Please] :( - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, Thanks for any help you can provide in advanced.
Here is the status of my transformer:
It wont do anything except go into apx mode. If i try to go to recovery, It simply goes to apx instead. I can't get it to do anything else. The screen is always black except when i try to fix with nvflash in which case text appears on the upper left that says :
"Entering NvFlash recovery node/nv3p Server
Chip Uid : [some random numbers]
!!!!!phone update succes!!!!!"
I tried following ThingODoom's instructions here
transformerforums[dotcom]/forum/asus-transformer-development/24512-solved-oh-gawd-i-think-ive-bricked-my-tf-2.html#post203094
to recover with nvflash, but it always gets stack at "Formatting Partition 15 UDA." no progress after that.
Here is the output
Code:
"wheelie.exe" -2 --
bct transformer.bct --bl bootloader.bin --odm 0x300d8011
Wheelie 0.1 - Preflight for nvflash.

Well. It turns out I didn't wait long enough at the "Formatting partition 15 UDA" step. Since all the other ones took under 15 seconds, it worried me when #15 was taking longer than 10 minutes, so I always stopped it at that point. Turns out I had to wait 15+ minutes. Everything worked out.
Thank you

Patience is a virtue...

I downloaded nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip from dropbox , after unzip all I get is 'nvflash_gtablet.sh'. I Am downloading a wrong version.
I Appreciate your reply
hguled,
What operating system are you using?
The nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip is for Windows.
The file nvflash_linux_2010110500.tar.gz is for Linux.

[Q] Installing ROM to save a bricked G2x

Spent the day bricking my G2x. The phone will not power up. I still have access to the phone using the vol up/down keys with no battery.
I am trying to use the method described here to recover the phone to a bootable state.

I'm using an XP machine, with Windows Essentials as the Antivirus.
I downloaded the files twice, and get the same results with both downloads.
Any help would be appreciated!
Your holding down the buttons the whole time correct? I dunno maybe try a different port or windows 7.

Yeah I suggest try putting your files setup exactly as he says in the tutorial and as dru12k said make sure you hold the buttons the entire time. If that don't work I know it works on windows 7. I recovered mine several times using it.

Once the flashing starts, I have been releasing the buttons! I'll give this a try when I get home tonight. Thanks!
Giant Success!
From the great abyss, we have looked over the edge and laughed! The key was holding the buttons throughout the flashing process. Everything worked swimmingly, and the phone is back to tip-top shape - even better than before.
Thanks for the words of encouragement, and being here to help everyone out.

[Q] TF101 Beyond Bricked?

Here's the situation:
TF101
B70
SBK- Unknown, seems to be 2 based on results
Android Version- 4.0.3
I decided that I wanted to install Ubuntu as a dual boot option. Gathered all of the materials as described in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364095. After about 45 minutes on the "uploading Ubuntu" screen, I hit the install button again as it seemed to not be having any effect. Now, although the computer can tell that a usb device is plugged in, my TF101 will not boot or even show any light from the screen. On canceling, I got the following output.

Any ideas?
Run it again, this time leave it alone...if it was SBK2 it would have failed much earlier in the process.

Help - Can not unbrick TF101 B70 with Wheelie

Hi, my wife's stock TF101 went into a boot loop last night that I can't get it to break out of after multiple cold boot attempts. I also tried doing a factory reset but that gives me the sad android guy on his back (same thing when I try to boot to recovery).
I've installed tons of custom roms over the years and am generally quite knowledgeable when it comes to android, but I'm stuck on this issue (and I'm starting to wonder if my eMMC is faulty or something).
The good news is that I can get into APX mode and use nvflash
I've downloaded both the .24 and .27 firmware updates from asus and tried to to a reflash using wheelie and I keep getting the same error (I've tried this via windows and linux)
My formats and downloads go through successfully each time but then I get these errors:
failed executing command 25 NvError 0x120002
command failure: sync failed (bad data)
bootloader status: Bct Write Failed (code: 22) message: nverror:0x40005 (0x14000
5) flags: 0
I've been googling them all morning with no luck and any help would be greatly appreciated

[Solved]New to tinkering and already bricked

Hey guys, I'll try to keep it short and get to the parts that really matter, but any help would really be appreciated.
Long story short, wanted to get onto Jellybean with my B60 TF101.
Started with easyflasher since that seemed like the quickest way to get setup. Couldn't get it working because I had not yet installed APX drivers, but not knowing that yet I moved on to 1 Click transformer root. At this point I discovered the APX drivers were not installed and installed the Universal Naked drivers. Still could not get 1 Click transformer root to work and so I returned to easy flasher. Tried to flash recovery to Roach CWM, but did not work. I figured alright, at this point I will just flash to stock to see if working with a clean slate would help. Flashed to stock using easyflasher and the latest firmware off ASUS website, but it failed. I now am only able to get into APX mode and after running easyflasher a number of times hoping it would fix it to no avail I did some searching and found a few similar threads.
This seemed closest to what I was experiencing, but after going through the thread I could not get anything to work. And that's where I am. I ran Brk's ASUS transformer root, installed the drivers from that thinking maybe the ones I had installed weren't the best and ran the stock flashing section and I still end up in the same place. I'm entirely new to this so pardon my ignorance, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Here's the log from the last run of Brk's Root Toolkit

EDIT: Problem solved. Switched to USB port on back of computer and ran reflash_sbkv1.bat included with brk's root toolkit and it worked. After that just started up the toolkit and reflashed the firmware from the GUI and i'm back in business. Not sure which part was the important one, but maybe this will help someone else.
