[Q] Fix TF stuck on Asus boot screen? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Couple of days ago I opened up my TF and saw it was stuck on the bootup screen. Since then I have tried multiple times to format /system and do a factory restore in CWM and tried reflashing EOS JB and RaymanFX JB. Both times the TF boots so it shows the blue bar on boot sliding across to show it updated and then dies and reboots and gets stuck on the bootup screen. Is there a way to fix this?
And the loading screen I'm talking about is the one that says eee pad in cursive and "Powered by Nvidea Tegra" on the bottom.
Thanks.

did you flash kernal from RaymanFX
If you are ready flash kernal just go back CWR and selected "Boot recovery" in misc menu
waiting little bit long in the first time but it'll be login successful, it's my experience ^^
note: and flash google app too "gapp"

Isn't the kernel built into the ROM? I guess I will give that a try.

It is better to clean isntall.
Format /data etc.
then isntlal the rom
or download Super Wipe Full form ARHD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1245892
good luck :]

Do not use super wipe...
Install twrp 2.2.1(recovery)
Use that recovery to wipe internal memory, cache, dalvik and everything else..
Now do a fresh installation of CM10 or eos jb... mind u cm10 gives better audio then eos and cm10 has kernel inbuilt which is better than eos kernel...

Basically wiped and formatted everything and downloading CM10 right now. Hopefully this will work.
Tablet has booted into CM and everything seems to be working again. Thanks guys!

Asus Transformer TF101 struck on start screen
Hi,
My Asus Transformer is struck at welcome screen, when I try to reboot with power and volume down buttons, it's saying rebooting but struck at the

Cold-booting Linux
Any help is truly appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!
Are you rooted, or are you still stock?
If you are rooted, what recovery are you running?
If you are stock, I would try flashing the latest (.27) firmware for your version (SKU). Download from the Asus support site, unzip it ONCE (it will still be a zip) and put that on a microSD formatted for FAT32. Then hold VOL DOWN and POWER until you see the small white text. Release both buttons and hit VOL UP to enter RCK (recovery) to trigger the flash of the stock firmware.

[Q] HELP

Hey everyone im trying to unroot my transformer.I instaleed repacked-8.2.3.13_US+root-CWR-update.zip.Rebooted it and then i shut it back down.I then booted into clockword mod and installed this recovery 8239usrecovery zip.After that i wiped cache,data and system.I rebooted and now im stuck on the eeepad asus boot screen.When i try to go into recovery i get the triangle.Is there anything i can do?Or did i brick my transformer by formatting the system?Please some one help.
never delete system as it is what has all of the stock apps and framework and library. So it will not boot. The stock firmware will NOT install if you do not have everything in system perfectly. If possible try to use NVFlash to get back to a stable rom if not i don't know if there is anything you can do.

Don't do **** if you don't know what you're doing or you don't have the full instructions in front of you...
What you've done is the following equivalent in any PC or laptop:
Start PC/Laptop with LiveCD/RescueCD
Format C: (or /dev/sda)
Try to start PC/Laptop
Start to ROFL!
You were supposed to flash the stock rom from asus before flashing the recovery.
Try downloading the rom from asus, unizziping it and placing it on your microSd card and see if theres a prompt to update the rom when you attempt to go into recovery.
Als you could try wiping it again.
Boot while holding the volume down button, When the text shows up don't press anything, wait and you'll get two images show up. Press volume down highlight select wipe cache, the volume up to confirm.
See if that works.
Thanks i will try that now.

TF101 B80 stuck on ASUS boot screen

My tablet recently froze when i was not able to turn off my wifi in the settings of my Revolution 3.1 ROM. I have tried to boot up since this and now it is stuck on the ASUS boot screen with the circle.
I am able to boot to cwm 3.2.0.1 and wipe data/flash the rom again, but no matter what I do, it is stuck on the same screen.
I recently tried doing a cold boot and a factory reset/wipe data in the recovery menu, but when i choose to wipe data, after it loads the recovery kernal image, all i get is the android triangle.
What else can I try?
I have the same problem with my TF101. Are you able to find a solution to your problem.

Maybe a problem in kernel or /system partition, try to flash the ROM again may fix the problem.

I have the same problem.....
I rooted, installed Rom Manager to get CWM Recovery installed and then flashed the new CyanogenMod 10 - B1 ♦ K.A.T. As soon as I restarted, after it appeared that the flash went fine, it hung at the boot screen - not frozen just wont go any further.
I tried rebooting by holding the power button, I tried re-flashing both the CY 10 and the original Rom and tried "restoring" my backed up rom.
I have tried recovering through Easy Flasher but I don't think my PC is seeing the transformer properly.
I have ADB drivers installed but because the TF dose not boot properly it dose not seem to get there.
I have let the battery drain as some report a resolve when they get it to power down all the way but as soon as I plug it in and power it up it goes back to the boot screen and stays there.
Please help as I cant afford to lose this pad (yes I knew the risks).

Same issue, I can't get my computer to recognize the tablet to push any files to it, and I can't mount it from TWRP. What can I do?
Have you guys tried wiping out before flashing? Wipe out the cache,system, and all other partitions.

Problems booting JellyBean ROMs

Has anyone else had issues with getting the various JellyBean ROMs for the Transformer TF101 to boot the first time?
I have tried 3 ROMs now, Cyanogen 10, EOS and rayman33's AOSP build. They all install successfully but none of them boot to the OS, they all just sit at their respective animated boot screen.
I've left each one of them sitting for an hour or more and they never finish booting, so it's not a case of me being impatient.
Has anyone else had this? Were you able to solve it, if so, how?
Thanks

I'm having the same issue. What Recovery are you using? By any chance, did you install CWM 5.5.0.4 and get stuck in that recovery loop before?

You might be onto something there. I did install CWM 5.5.0.4, I never resolved the recovery loop because I rebooted the device so infrequently it was never a problem, until now it seems.

I flashed a newer CWM recovery, then ran the script using SU (either in ADB shell or terminal emulator)
echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0 and it started booting up fine. However, every time I flash anything in recovery, it goes back to the recovery boot. This is why you and I are having to go through the Cold Boot Linux option... thats where mine freezes with one JB ROM and I go into an infinity logo loop with EOS JB ROM...

Try flashing a new recovery. I did this and eliminated the bootloop, mine was caused by updating to .27 while having cwm. I have yet to try a jelly bean rom. I had this issue, flashed teamwin 2.2 touch recovery then cold booted, entered the echo boot cmd in terminal emulator. then restarted tablet which then installed the new recovery and then a reboot performed as expected. Hope this helps.

I did this just now. Perfect... however, I am not able to access my Internal SD Card. Am I doing something wrong?
*Scratch that, i see all of my files
Update: I did this, and I was able to flash JB. No problems. It takes some getting used to, its not familiar to me yet... i accidentally flashed the ROM, then wiped dalvik cache, and forgot to erase/factory default... luckily it booted fine and actually kept all my old settings upgrading from EOS ICS
I still haven't resolved my boot loop problem aaarrrggghhh!!!
I'm sure once I do all will be well.
Thanks guys

When you guys are stuck on the boot logo, how do you reboot the tablet? I'm stuck on boot animation for 10 minutes now, and have no idea how to shut it off, or reboot or go back to recovery. Tried holding power button for 5/10/30 seconds, tried holding power button in combination with Vol- and Vol+ respectivly, nothing. The only thing I can see is just waiting for the battery to die :/
Tried plugging in usb cable, no response out of adb.
ME TOO! I just got the ASUS TF101-X1 from Groupon. Not sure what the model number is. My S/N starts C3OKA and there's RTF101 on here too.
I loaded the TEAM EOS JellyBean ROM and got stuck at the animation logo just after the TEAM EOS appeared. Freaked me out. I, finally, managed to get the Revolver ICS flashed and I'm back up and running,

I take it that when you were stuck on the animation logo, you just pressed and held the power button and it shut off? This is the problem I have right now is that it won't turn off for me. So, its just staying at that animation until presumably it will shut off once the battery drains.
Luckily, I had just flashed Team Rogue recovery just before I flashed the 8/1/12 TEAM EOS JellyBean ROM.
To get to recovery, press and hold Power + Volume Down, then press Volume Up when prompted <- You have to be fast.
I would try flashing [ROM] Revolver 4 by Gnufabio | 4.1.1 Stable - IC411 | Jun 23 | FaceUnlock | APM

That's the problem I have right now tho, is that my TF101 is stuck on the boot animation logo, and I can't get it to go anywhere. It will not turn off with pressing and holding the power button (tried for 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, etc). I have CWM on there, so, I guess once my battery dies, and shuts the tablet off, I'll be able to power it back up again. I really wish there was some sort of physical switch that cuts the power to the tablet, because obviously the 'power' button doesn't do it.
I found this over at Transformerforums: "--Hold down the Power button and the Volume Up buttom, at the same time, for 10 seconds. The TF101 will shut itself off, screen will be black. After a minute, hold down the Power button and the Volume Down button, at the same time, for 10 seconds. The screen will come on about 30 sec after you release the buttons.

This puts your tablet in APX mode. It does not shut it down.
I say the simplest way to fix the boot loop is
1. boot into recovery MANUALLY (dont EVER use "boot to recovery" power-menu, ROM manager boot to recovery etc. This is what is causing your bootloops). Manually means holding power+volume DOWN until it says "push volume up", then you push volume up.
2. while in recovery, using adb, run the echo boot commands as listed earlier in this thread.
And to be able to turn off tablet even with bootloops...
3. from recovery, if not running team win recovery, flash team win recovery. You can use adb to transfer files to the tablet while in recovery.
Code:
adb push teamwinrecoverything.zip /sdcard/
4. from team win recovery, chose power off.
The key to unlocking (almost) any Android problem on any Android device is knowing adb and knowing when to use it
Do not flash while docked
I was FINALLY able to get TEAM EOS JB loaded!
A lesson for all n00bs like me.
DO NOT FLASH WHILE DOCKED! I repeat DO NOT FLASH WHILE DOCKED!
Quite by accident, I figured out that flashing while docked caused the JB ROM to stay stuck at the boot animation. As soon as I undocked, after a few seconds, the boot process proceeded and voila! JELLYBEAN!

I posted this else where, so hopefully it isn't looked at as spamming, but when I was trying different ROMs I could not get wifi to work. It was like my Prime didn't see the wireless radio. After two days of u successful ROMs, I ran across "fix permissions" in CWM. This seemed to clear up the issue. I hope this helps somebody, I couldn't find anything referencing this issue.

hopefully whith a NVflash version for the tf300t we can recover it

Need help flashing Katkiss 6.0.1 , Recovery Partition Not Found / Nothings Working

So, I just decided to try and Flash the old TF101 with Katkiss 6.0.1 and Gapps, but I always get stuck on the same problem.
My TF101 is running Android 4.0.3 ICS and USB Debugging is on
I downloaded TWRP app on the transformer, as well as the latest .blob flash file through the app.
Before this, I rooted the tablet using Kingroot.apk, which worked. When I went to flash the tablet with the recovery, the app noted "Recovery Partition not found".
I tried to boot into recovery mode on my own, (Pressing Pwr + Volume down , Then hitting Volume Up), The android screen popped, up and then flashed to a fallen android with a red triangle.... The screen stays on this for a minute and then boots into the normal system. I can't even boot into recovery through ADB, using the
Code:
adb reboot recovery
, The tablet will just reboot normally, not into recovery mode.
The Device does recognize through ADB....
Is my recovery partition just non existent? Even when I just let the system though without pressing volume up, it only gives me the option of (Android) or (Erase Data). when I click erase data, ill stay on the asus loading screen indefinitely and nothing will happen until i turn it off and on.
I just cant seem to boot into TWRP for some reason, and that means I just cant install the downloaded custom ROM.
How Can I fix this and boot into TWRP? I've tried for hours and have been hung up due to the same problem each time, even after rooting.
Did you already solve that problem? I also need a solution.Thanks
