my TF700 wont boot. I get into fastboot. what to do? - Asus Transformer TF700

I get in fastboot but my device wont show on my pc.
how can i flash a stock firmware now? Is it bricked or something?
my device is locked btw.
this all happened when i was trying to upgrade jb with root manually.
I upgraded with command and lpdkfig from ics to ww 10.4.4.16 and then ww10.4.4.18. ..everything was fine.
then I upgraded to ww10.0.0.20 . and now when it boots i get tons of errors and it wont get into home screen. everything just force closes

Fastboot doesn't work on a locked device. Can't you get into recovery? (hold volume-down while powering on and select RCK with volume-up)

Correct. Welcome to the stock recovery.
Quote from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1833212 :
1) Download the latest firmware from Asus site
2) Extract the .zip file somewere on your desktop (the result will be another .zip file,use it for step 3)
3) Rename the extracted archive to "EP201_768_SDUPDATE.ZIP" (without the " ") and upload it to a MicroSD card
4) Insert the MicroSD card in your tablet and use this button combination to Power ON and go to recovery --> Start the tablet by pressing Volume Down and POWER togheter for 5 seconds ,a message will inform you that you have 5 seconds to enter the recovery,press Volume UP before the 5 seconds expire.
At this point the device will go in recovery and should start updating your firmware .

Looks correct. Your card is formatted with FAT32? (something else will most likely not work)

I have little experience with the stock recovery - do you get any messages? Maybe after you tap the power button.

Not sure why you are blaming the device. It works great. It sounds to me like user error and the jb update wasn't flashed properly.

I would if the god damn asus server worked so I could unlock it!

did you recover your tablet? I mean, when the flash process finished did you see all your apps and configuration as it were before you got stuck on fastboot?
I got the SoD in locked stock situation yesterday while i was installing documents togo from the android amazon store.
I coud not start the tab, just got a black screen or the asus logo freezed animation every reboot. I try to reflash but I couldn't. (I dont try to rename the zip file) i just got stucked on recovery red triangle. So I did a wipe and reboot, but same freeze booting (oh god...) so I try to reboot and reboot and then it boots correctly. Then I got my tablet clean without data.

[Q] Will my B80 ever work again? EDIT: It will not until ICS

Hi,
One day I was having fun with my brand new TF101 trying to root it and flash a rom...
I did a MASSIVE FAIL and now I get the asus logo when I turn it on and it only turns off when it has low battery . I can however acces the XPA mode (but useless, NVFLash doesn't work on B70+) and I can get into wipe mode and cold-booting. I tried both but the transformer just freezes . I wonder if one of you guys can tell me if I just have a 399€ paper weight mad or if it can be a tablet again D)?
Thanks,
HorClok
What were the exact steps you did to root and flash ?
Did you install CWM Recovery ?
Power off the TF by holding Power for a while until it turns off, then
Try holding Volume Down + Power until white text appears onscreen, then either choose Recovery or Wipe Data

All i get is wipe Data or cold booting Android... :/ I don't have a recovery mode on this tablet (it's a WW)
after the words appear, you have to push vol up within 5 sec to get into recovry.
If you wait after 5 sec. you'll only get the clear data or boot options.

I think he has nearly the same problem like me.
i also cant get into recovery. but now its enough for me.
I will RMA it tomorrow. i also highly doubt that new SBK-Codes will ever be leaked/cracked.
There was nothing for month now.
Good Luck for you, but i guess only Asus can Flash it back with there "secret-Flash tool" or whatever, which we unfortunately don't have!

Maybe you can try to use the rom from the asus support site, put it on the external card and look if it will take the "update" ?
You have to unzip the downloaded zip file once. So you get a ASUS dir on the card. I think not unzipping further down.
Or try to play around with the unzipped file like is done here (even in that thread it is an OTA update and not a complete rom).
Just some idea's, didn't try it myself.
If it has access to fastboot...can't he just use the fastboot command to flash the system and boot images?
Where can i find this fastboot, and how get it to work?
Not all hope is lost - I did the exact same thing to my B70 trying to install CWM on it (then found out what a B70 was...). I managed to recover it using ASUS built-in recovery kernel.
The catch is that it seems the recovery kernel will only install a newer firmware - not the current or an older one. If you were still on the older (pre-Christmas firmware) maybe you can use that one right away, otherwise ICS is right on the horizon. If you don't know which you were on, it doesn't hurt to try anyway.
Here's what I did:
1. Stash the transformer under my bed for a month so I couldn't see it laughing at me while waiting for an update.
2. Once there is a newer firmware than the one you currently have, download it from ASUS (sorry I can't post the URL because I'm too new, it's pretty easy to find though)
2. Unzip the downloaded package
3. Find the zip file under ASUS/Update, copy it to an external Micro SD Card and rename it to TF101_SDUPATE.ZIP
4. Insert the sd card into the transformer, then resart it while holding the volume down button (if, like mine, the transformer won't stay off, that's fine - hold down the power key until it turns off, then hold the volume down as it starts back up)
5. When you see the white text in the top left corner, press volume up to enter the RCK.
6. Cross your fingers
If it works in a minute or two you should see a progress bar start up. If it doesn't you will see an android with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle on it's chest.
If it doesn't work, don't despair - it might be the firmware you are using is too close to the existing one on the tablet. Wait for the next release and try again. It took me a month of waiting, but I finally got mine back.
hmm but you where always been able to access the Recovery, so that you can the Androidman with yellow triangle or?
On my Pad, if i press vol-up it shortly shows "booting recovery Kernel", and than screen gets black and instantly reboots.
You had the same behaviour?

Unfortunately it seems yours might be even more hosed than mine was then - I could always access the android with the yellow triangle. The recovery/wipe/cold boot screens were always available, it would just hang at the ASUS screen on boot, always restart when turned off
First of all, thanks for responding everyone.

I have to remember you that NVFlash does not work on Asus B70+.

Just to double-check - did you use the name TF101_SDUPATE.zip? I'm not sure if your above name was a typo after a long day of debugging
Good luck - I had pretty much given up hope after bricking mine, but did get it back. Hope your recovery efforts go as smoothly!
hmm, TF101_SDUPATE.zip ?
i thought all times "EP101_SDUPDATE.zip" ?
So what is the right name?

Now I'm wishing I had taken better notes when I did it.
I'm 90% sure I ended up using TF101_SDUPDATE.zip, because I was surprised too - I had previously seen EP101...
It certainly doesn't hurt to try both. It's also possible that the current firmware recognizes a couple of names.
[EDIT]
Looking at my terminal history, it looks like TF101... was an earlier failed attempt, and I did use EP101_SDUPATE.zip
If you haven't try it with the name EP101_SDUPATE.zip and see if it works any better!

[Q] in over my head

Bought my first tablet for the family, tf101. Heard about multiple users through jelly bean so why not? should have just used swtitch me after root and called it a day.
been going at this for 3 days and countless googling so now time to post something and ask for help. I rooted successfully yesterday so today I planned to go into JB 4.2.
When I rebooted into clockworkmod and chose to wipe data/factory it goes to formatting /data and sits there.
I have rebooted and get asus screen all day long. I help up on my volume and power to try to figure out this apx mode stuff but windws just says is looking for drivers. I cannot get into the tablet at all besides clockword and all it says is unknown volume for path sdcard
im stuck...please help...stock is better than doesnt work for christmas

You might want to try via TWRP recovery instead of CWM. I have had, as well as many others quite a few issues with CWM and the TF101. Again I am not bashing CWM, I just found that it caused or was linked to several issues I had.
I agree with MasterDecker, use TWRP. I have switched from CWM and found it to be so much better.

Bricked.....ViperXL. Please help

I've been working on my phone tonight and I had ViperXL installed....
The Memory card wasn't being read and I erased that ROM and was going to go back to my "NANODROID".....to start over fresh.
Now my phone won't make it past the HTC Splash Screen and the screen goes black.....Currently I cant see my phone on my PC
Did i brick my phone? I've tried Volume Down + Power to get into bootloader. It says HTC for 3-4 Seconds than goes blank. The 3 Keys at the bottom just flash white when I'm holding down buttons
Please tell me there is something I can do. I feel sick to my stomach

push the power button until it stop flashing. when you didnt see it flashing again, push and hold the volume down and push the power button for only 1 or 2 secs without releasing the volume down button. you should be back to the bootloader screen, and from there you can go to recovery to reflash your ROM.
Make sure you flash the boot.img when you install new ROM if you in hboot 1.14 or higher. unless you are s-off. hope this help.
----nevermind looks like you solve it on the viperXL forums

[Q] Only asus bootscreen, no recovery or boot - Is it Bricked?

Good evening all?
Ive unlocked my TF300T a year back and had been running Cyogenmod 10.1 on it for months, all worked fine.
As a recovery i had CWM installed and it worked like a charm as well.
A week ago i saw Cyogenmod 10.2 was out there and i wanted to switch the recovery to TWRP (i installed ver 2.6.x.x) and tried the new Cyogenmod.
It sisnt work so i wanted to switch back to 10.1 and CWM.
I dont exactly know what i did but in the end even the vol down and power button menu doesnt work anymore.
The tab turn on now and shows the Asus start screen but doesnt boot up.
Also when i press vol down and the power button it doesnt load the boot menu where i can install a new recovery and install the old Cyogenmod.
When its powered on i cant even turn of the tab, it keeps turning on for a few minutes in the Asus logo screen and than turn off and on again... till the battery is empty.
Did i brick my tablet ?
Are there any ways i can try to get the original software back?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers !

Did you update your bootloader to the JB one?

I think i didn't...
At first i just unlocked the device, installed recovery CWM and after a version (januari 2013) of Cyogenmod 10.1 wich was Android 4.2.2 and kept the Cyogenmod 10.1 up to date every few weeks... Thats all i did till i wanted to install Cyogenmod 10.2 (Android 4.3)
I can't recall updating the bootloader myself, could have been with an Asus update or something but i think i din't do it myself.
CM changed to the updated PITs when Asus updated first.
best solution would be to flash latest stock, boot into it once, flash twrp2 (2.6.0.0 works for me atm) then flash cm10.2
here is my summary

hope it helps
and no, i don't think you need to send it in for repair - it sounds more like broken PIT's so mount and boot points are not being recognized anymore.

More details will be needed before someone can help. What had you done right before it acted up? What rom do you have in there ATM? Can you post a picture or tell what's on the initial screen (the one before the boot animation)? Did you try volume down + power? If you did, what did the screen show?

I rooted my device using the method shown on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2228613I
, the ROM is stock and the screen before the animation is normal (white Asus text). I have tried volume down and power and from that screen, I reset my tablet. This didn't solve the issue, before this started, I changed the boot animation and changed fonts. I think it was while restarting after the font change that it stopped booting properly.

I gather by "reset my tablet", you meant you cold booted it by selecting the android icon. This being the case, you can always reflash the stock ROM with fastboot. Depending on whether you had 4.1 or 4.2 bootloader - 4.1 has 4 icons including a USB icon which if clicked, will make the tab enter fastboot/download mode; 4.2 will enter that mode automatically as you press volume down+power - you need to choose the right ROM you want to install. The initial screen should tell you which bootloader on the top left corner. 4.1 matches stock Roms commencing with 10.4.x.xx; 4.2 is Roms with 10.6.x.xx
I've flashed a 4.1 ROM (104220) on a tab with 4.2 bootloader by means of an external SD card without problems. However, to be safe, you should flash whatever version you'd had before the incident. If you already have data on the tab that you care to keep, you shouldn't touch the wipe date icon. If you need a link as to what to do, read this one. Good luck.

[Q] Need help with a TF300T tablet

hi guys I have a Asus Transformer tablet stuck in a boot loop. when I access the recovery menu it says on the top of the screen.
Android Cardhv-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "US_epad-10.6.1.27.1-20130711" A03 Key driver not found.. Booting OS
Starting Fastboot USB download protocol
I tried updateing it with that file and it goes thru the update and it still sticks with the boot loop and when I go to recovery the same message appears.
any help would be awesome. please help. it is a stock tablet with nothing never done to it. it just starting doing this out of the blue.
If you've never done anything to it then that must mean your bootloader is locked. I hate to suggest such a thing but you might try wiping your data using the bootloader menu and see if that helps

Dear all users of TF300T.
If you are using Stock ROM (Rooted/Non Rooted) and are bricked or stuck on ASUS boot screen. Then this guide is for you.
As i was using stock ROM (ROOTED) with Locked boot loader without custom recovery and my tf300t was Sofbricked due to wrong configurations at Display Pixel scaling and also reformat did not work for me.!
So i thought to create this guide which may help people out here It worked for me Try your LUCK.
Sorry if i am re posting i did not got any guides out here...
If this helped you please give me a Thumbs up.!
Steps:-
1. Download the latest ROM from ASUS website Which matches your SKU.(Important).
It would look somehing like this (TF300T-TW_epad-10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher . zip)
2. Extract it and rename that file to ( EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip )
3. Now copy this new renamed file to SDCARD (Root of sd card). Put the SDcard into tablet.
4. Now Press and hold Volume Down + Power for a few seconds. Then you will see the ASUS recovery options.
5. 3 icons will appear: RCK, Android, and Wipe Data. The RCK should be flashing green. Press the UP Volume Key Once.
Now wait for a few minutes. It will flash the ROM.
And wola! Your TF300T will again work fine!!
Any suggestions and comments are most welcomed!

The screen that you're looking at is not the recovery menu but the bootloader menu. Are you certain that your bootloader is unlocked? If you don't know we start the tablet and look into the upper left hand corner and it will tell you unlock if it is

It's locked. And yes I tried reinstalling4.0 on it due to the sticker on the tablet saying it was 4.0 and it didn't work. Then I seen the message that it said it was missing a driver so I searched for that en file and then updated it with that and it does the same thing. If ur curious what message I mean look at my first post
