So my brother accepted the 4.2 update on Thursday. He is stock and non-rooted. When he accepted the update, his tablet was in the keyboard dock. He let it be while it updated for about 2 hours. It was still on the boot screen. Then, he detached it from the dock and put it on the charger. It's been just shy of six hours, and it's still on the boot screen. What should we do?

Did you try to power it off then on again?
No should I? Is there a chance of bricking it?

We don't know what happened. Do you know if the software installed but failed to boot up or it never installed? Obviously it's not doing anything right now, so you have no choice but reboot the device. If it bricked it already done.
I just rebooted, same problem.

Turn off your device, then hold down volume down and power buttons, when you see a white text on the screen release both buttons, now use the Volume down to switch the highlighted RCK to Android icon, then hit the Volume up button twice to execute. This will cold boot your device.
Same problem, still stuck on the boot screen after 3 minutes.

Seems like you're updated to 4.2 but something corrupted prevented it from booting up. Try the same procedures but this time select "wipe data" icon then hit volume up twice to execute it. This is like factory reset.
Thank you, we factory reset it and it was at 4.2.1 working properly.

Nice! glad it worked for you.
Hey, Im sorry for hijacking this thread.
But I have exactly the same issue. Expect that my Tf700 wont boot, after that wipe...
Its still stuck on the "Asus" Screen.
Before I installed via OTA, I tried to save root with OTA Rootkeeper and changed nothing else. Im stock and my bootloader is locked.
I have also just 3 icons when pressing power and volume down. So I think I have a similar problem you described buhohitr.
If I boot with Volume Down and Power Button pressed there is this text:
Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "WW_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329" A03

with the 3 Icons.

Did you try to boot into recovery then select the "WIPE DATA" icon (by hiting the volume down until it highlighted, then press the volume up button twice. It will wipe data then reboot your device automatically.

Since yours is still locked. I think the only to recover your device is wait for Asus to release the full firmware. Sorry!

power + volume up, then use 'fastboot devices' in adb see if it comes up.

Power+up is good for boot loops but if you have a recovery installed you can access it through the boot loader menu

No, stay on the bootloader interface, don't press anything, connect it to ur PC and type this in adb: fastboot devices see if you can see your phone's serial number.

That's bad, I recommend to hand it in for repairs, since you can't even connect it to a PC nor boot into recovery.

Try turning the device off then holding volume down and power button. Might be power up and volume, not sure. Then during boot when you see text in upper left corner, press volume up.

The device does not yet handle the reboot to recovery command. As stated by AndroSwag, power and volume down, as soon as you see the small script, press volume up. You will see the classic android laying prone... just tap power and you will be in stock (or custom) recovery.

I already have this question up as part of a different issue/question in another thread, but thought I'd double down my chances of getting a response:
I'm on the .30 bootloader; do the newer BLs (eg. 10.44.25) implement Reboot to Recovery functionality? Or is this not related to the BL?

I know I am running 10.4.4.25 with CROMI 3.3 and TWRP and I can reboot into recovery just fine (without having to do the power button + volume).

Yes. If you have stock rom you need to be rooted and download an app called rebooter, this app has options where you can boot to recovery. If you are running custom rom this same app will help you to do the same.

I can now reboot into recovery without the use of the app (I hear people have bricked their tabs with it). Anyways, the 10.xx.xx bootloader was the missing piece. With the new CM10.1 builds, I don't have the reboot context menu (I'm sure it can be configured to show reboot into recovery, etc. but have been to busy to play with my tablet) but "reboot recovery" from Terminal works fine.
Thanks for all the replies.
Phone will go into download mode for a split second then reboot but not boot up. I would have to do a battery pull to get it booted all the way. Phone also will not go into recovery mode.
Is something wrong with your volume button? That sounds more like it's broken since you can't boot into either download or recovery.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
It will go into download, just only stay for a second.
Do you have any issues with your volume buttons while using the rom? When did this start happening? Also, did you do anything that might cause this to happen?
When you hold volume up, home, and power to boot into recovery then release the power button once it vibrates, what happens?

Once it vibrates when i try to go into a recovery, the screen just go blank,
Volume buttons work well. It's just the power button that's a little wonky. Also phone turns on when battery is placed in.
power button maybe stuck down, making it turn off when in recovery and on when battery is installed.
Cruzin the Galaxy SIII via SynergyRom/Anthrax kernels
I thought it might be stuck too but when phone is fully booted into rom, it doesn't go on and off like the buttin is stuck.

I don't think that's gonna work. I've already taken the whole phone apart and I got to where the buttons push and there were like no buttons there. I figured the little buttons should look like the power button, but they didn't.
