Hey,
My Asus Tf300t has been working perfectly until I wanted to get into recovery mode (RCK) yesterday. It got stuck there and
I tried it another time and it didn't work. After that I let it go and just booted normally, but then it stayed at the "ASUS Inspiring inno.... etc." screen.
Now I can shut my device down by holding the power button, but I cant get it to cold boot or get into recovery options again, it just boots endlessly.
My device has been unlocked and working fine for months.
What can I do?
regards,
Pmobilee
make sure that you are hold the "volume down" button, and hope it puts you back to where you can boot into recovery. Does that tablet boot at all, or just a "bootloop"
Did you have a working recovery before this? Like have you booted your recovery before and know that it was working?

Yes, I have been into the recovery and know the procedure. And im afraid the boot goes as far as the asus logo.

Yes, recovery booted before. But this all started when I tried to boot recovery again, and it got stuck. Then this infitite boot occurred.

and when you tried to boot recovery again what method did you use? did you use the "reboot recovery" option in your recovery or ROM power menu?or did you do it manually?(hold vol- and power then press vol+)?

Hi all. I'm in the exact same situation. Didn't want to make a new thread though.
I rooted my TF300T a few months ago (Oct 2013), and it has been running fine on CyanogenMod 10.2. So I ran the CyanogenMod Update app (Settings > About Tablet > CyanogenMod Updates), then downloaded the LATEST nightly (dated yesterday: Dec 14, so 10.2...141213). I don't know if this is a factor, but I usually pull down the notification bar and tap the "Reboot and Install" option, but I accidentally cleared my notifications, so I went back into CyanogenMod Updates, tapped the installed button for the latest nightly, and tablet started rebooting.
However I cannot get past the boot screen. So recovery is not loading. I used TWRP last time I did this. I Can't turn the tablet off either, at least not until I plugged the USB from my PC to the tablet then tried long pressing the Power button and holding Volume Down. Before plugging USB in it would simply restart and sit on the boot screen again.
I have to leave the house for now, but will attempt to get into Recovery later tonight with same methods as above. Fingers crossed!
EDIT: I remembered, it was 10.2, not 10.1 I was running. So I shouldn't have had any issues going from 10.2 to a newer 10.2.
I'm back home now. I've tried again to get into Recovery, but cannot. I've got the tablet plugged into the PC with the USB, I'm holding Power and Volume Down, but nothing. Instead it seemly turns off, but comes back on and stays on the same boot screen (Asus. Inspiring Innovation, etc...).
And I can't figure out how I was able to turn the damn thing off before either. So I have to leave it on until the power drains. So that sucks!
Is it bricked?
Let's do this together. I recently tried to upgrade to 4.4 from 4.3 and I accidently erased my tablet by manually booting into twrp 2.5 and selecting the 3rd option which is wipe data...so we are in the same boat.
Has your battery drained yet?

Damn, that sucks! Yes, battery has now drained, and yes, let's work this out together. What ROM were you using? Android 4.4 is not out on CyanogenMod for the TF300T, and I will probably stick to CM. But if I have to use something else to get this fixed, I'll do it.
Was any fix found for this? I am now experiencing the same problem after trying to reboot into recovery to upgrade Cyanogen. Any help would be appreciated.

Nope, and after a lot of support and help from the good guys on the Transformer Forums, I've declared this unfixable. If you had a NVIDIA backup, you'd be fine, but without that you're pretty much screwed, sorry to say.
Can you get into bootloader? If so you can do this:

And it should resolve ANY bad flash/wrong flash issues.

hi guys my tf300 is bricked after flashing 4.1 B update from 4.0 , still on bootlog , i tried to restore a bakcup or install again the R1 rom but still on bootlog what can i do now ? i only can go in recovery CWM :crying:
your tablet is NOT Bricked, bricked means something different than your state. You can even access fastboot.....

ok , but what i must do now ?
I had the same issue( and so have others) but all have been able to be fixed one way or another. So no panicing, :fingers-crossed:you'll get your baby back in working order just going to take some reading. Get a cup of coffee, take a deep breath and read you'll find your answer. In my case I had flashed with CWM recovery, turnes out that almost always ends up being stuck at bootlogo . If you Power off with a long press on the power button then hold volume down and power button you'll get the bootloader menu, volume up on the RCK and you'll be back in recovery. For me I just had to fastboot connected to my computer and push TWRP then boot to that, then flashed, rooted version of Stock 4.1 (found else where in this forum) let it boot once, then when back into TWRP and flashed Hydro, let it boot up the first time, then the Update for Hydro 4.1. Now all is good. Your story might be different but you'll find it if you read.
Exact problem I had. Its cwm messing everything up. Flash team win from fastboot and everything will be OK.

I finally got my tablet out to use again and went through the process of installing the newest CWM image for CyanogenMod, and my tablet is now completely useless. It is stuck at the ASUS splashscreen. It will not boot past this and I cannot enter the boot menu to use fastboot or enter recovery. Can anyone help, or does anyone know how to fix this?

You said that you cannot enter the different modes because of the spla#h screen. Have you tried holding the power button for about 10 seconds? It always works for me.

I have no idea what bootloader, and I have no way of finding out right now. It was running a CyanogenMod from last year(4.1 I believe) and I was trying to load the newest one on it.

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

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.
hi there,
I'm running CM11 nightly late feb. For no apparent reason my phone went into a boot loop this morning (n.b. I didn't flash a new rom or installed a new app). Now it constantly reboots (literally) and doesn't get further than the CM11 boot video or google logo.
If I press volume down and power, it will head into bootloader - but - I can't navigate beyond 'shut down' or 'restart bootloader'. It doesn't execute two consecutive volume up or down commands. In other words, it's impossible to get into recovery mode. Also, because my phone doesn't boot further than the video or logo, I can't make a fastboot or adb connection via my laptop.
Does anybody know how I can fix this issue? I'm clearly running out of luck. Many thx in advance!
reflash recovery?
Try to boot into recovery with cmd: fastboot boot TWRP.img (TWRP or your current custom recovery)
Then restore a nandroid backup or wipe data/system/dalvik
You can still flash the factory images. Fastboot mode is enough. Guide

can't flash anything, because phone is constantly rebooting. Have opened up the phone and took the battery out for 1 minute. Didn't help either. After starting up the phone I get stuck in the boot loop again.
Anyone else an idea?

The phone doesn't reboot in the bootloader right?
If it doesn't either do what primokorn said or flash the factory image.

Well the issue is that it only stays for a fraction of a second in bootloader, which gives it enough time to navigate one step up or down. Not enough time to get into recovery.
How can I do what Primoken said? It doesn't seem to be possible to do a flash when the phone is constantly rebooting?
Thx for helping me out guys, much appreciated!

Have you ever kept your phone in narrow pocket? Because it's definitely sounds to me like a stuck power button.

It's not a power issue. Also unscrewed my phone to see if that was what caused it. Nothing in there, mechanism functioned correctly.
UPDATE: For some reason my phone booted up out of nothing. I managed to flash an older ROM via CM Updater (through settings)- which seemed to work. Apps were updated and it was running normally. But after a couple of minutes it restarted out of the blue and now back to square one again.
Guess there's a chance I'll probably get a normal start up soon. Is it a good idea to do a factory whipe restart through the settings menu? Or is Primokorn's method safer?

I don't get into download mode at the first try i keep trying many times, maybe it's the same thing for you too. apparently i need to flash stock rom with odin on download mode, that's what you should do too if you get to download mode.

Noobie here, and not sure if I know enough to make much sense.
I had a similar situation occur today.
New to me but a 2nd hand p600 which rooted today and then I used Odin 3.10.6 to flash TWRP and found myself in a boot loop similar to the description.
I panicked bigtime and feverishly googled my way to to this message thread and my hopes were raised when I read the OPs message and then got dashed to find no solution posted .
After perhaps 20 attempts of getting combined button pushes and releases correct. (it never happened ) I was desperately trying almost anythiing and then got to TWRP File manager, then Reboot, then System, then Normal Reboot and finally Success! I got the regular reboot. Phew!
Hope it helps
Well, I let it sit over the weekend and the battery complete depleted. I was then able to get into TWRP and Download mode when I applied power, I have since flashed a new rom and whewwww, up and running again. Before the battery went dead, it wouldn't do anything but reboot.....
