My Asus tft 700 infinity is blocked, upon lighting only the logo leaves "asus", there is not possibility of putting it in way "recovery" pressing the keys "power + volume down".
I did a "wipe" and then began the problem. It had installed the read-only one CleanRom 3.0.3.
You can help me, please?
Thanks.

Where did you do a wipe from? What version of recovery do you have on it? Bootloader version? What happens when you try power and volume down?

I put the infinity in way recovery, you left the four icons and I pressed the "wipe", from that moment was blocked, when I press "power + down the volume" only the icon leaves of asus, press what press only the icon leaves.

Which is why I asked which bootloader and recovery. If you have an incompatible recovery version and bootloader it will brick if you choose wipe from the bootloader.
So which recovery version and bootloader did you have?

I'm trying to root my phone and every time the phone hangs at the hboot screen. So today I manually entered recovery pressing vol down and power. I wanted to do a factory reset and try rooting again since I already have the OTA installed. Once in recovery I cannot navigate with the volume buttons. I have to remove the battery to even restart the phone. Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with the phone?
are you mixing up cwm with the bootloader?

@OP:
When u come to HBOOT menu, give it ~20-30 seconds to be responsive. Then Press power button once or twice, and it should start responding.

Pressing the voldown and power button doesnt take you to recovery, thats hbooot, and why dont you just do a factory reset from the settings?

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.
i was trying to do a factory reset on my TF700, and it was rooted.. but it froze during the reset, now when i try to turn it on it says "device is unlocked" and shows the asus and tegra logos, but stays there, if i hold volume down when i hole the power button it says "booting recovery kernel image" and freezes... i have no selection that i can select between here.... and lastly if i hold volume up, im able to detect APX through my computer and have the proper driver installed, but i dont know where to go here
so is it bricked? what do i do now?

Can your pc see it through fastboot mode? connect your pc to your device, then hold down volume down and power button, when see white text let go both buttons, hit volume down to switch to the USB icon, then hit volume up button twice. On your computer, open command prompt (cmd) go to the directory where fastboot.exe is installed and type :
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
hit enter, is your computer reboot??

Then not much you can do but to send out for repair, you could try to keep it off for awhile and try again, hopefully it can boot into recovery, but very slim at this point.
Just for the hell of it, hit the reset button too, maybe magic will come!

I your case I think they just need to reflash the bootloader should cost around $100. If mainboard or screen range from 250-350 (shipping, parts and labor). Can you just exchange from where you purchased?

i wouldnt want to exchange it.. wouldnt trust someone else with the data, and also, im partial to this one now.. kind of sentimental
according to other brick cases, bricked devices due to bootloaders need their motherboard replaced. after repairs you will not be able to unlock it again.

that sounds absolutely rediculous for a bootloader error, and unable to ever be unlocked again?.. thats insane that they would do that, but i heard about it before.. this all happened because of a faulty backup image to begin with, that froze my damn tablet while reverting to factory settings... makes me so angry that this is their policy....
so has anyone else had this issue before? and what did it cost?

is it possible to fix this myself? i am able to get an apx connection with my computer... if o hold power and press volume down it attempts to load a backup image which im guessing was corrupted in the first place... not sure the bootloader is really the issue?
anyone?
If you don't have nvflash backup(for use with APX mode), and you can't get to recovery. You pretty much done.

nvflash backup had to have been installed on the tablet prior to this happening?.. or do i use nvflash to install a backup, and if so, couldnt i get a vanilla backup image somewhere?

Well obviousely you don't have nvflash backup. You only can make a backup of nvflash if you have build version .26, once you updated, there is NO WAY you can make nvflash backup. The problem is there is no way we can communicate with your device to dump any image since the recovery is gone (corrupted). You need this recovery so you can push or load file/image etc.. from your sdcard or from your PC. All you can do now is keep playing with it and hope for miracle for some how you can get back in recovery mode.
well this is exactly what comes up when i hold power and volume down... im not sure if this means much to anyone
also, it speaks of checking for an android ota recovery, however it cannot find one... where is an ota recovery image located? im assuming somewhere over the internet?... or is it on a removable SD card?
the device is unlocked.

Booting recovery kernel image
I just bought a new TF700T and have unlocked the bootloader, and am now trying to root. However, when I start the device by holding down Power and VolumeDown, the bootloader immediately loads the recovery kernel without giving me the opportunity to select fastboot.
What's up with that?

I see them, but the device immediately announces that it's taking me to the recovery kernel images.
Or I let go too soon and it boots normally. I haven't found a way to actually be allowed to make the selection yet.
Having tried something different, even using "adb reboot bootloader" from the command prompt reboots the device to the bootloader, but still gives me no chance to make any selection other than the recovery kernel image.
Okay, solution to the problem found: even though the bootloader tells you that Vol- moves the selection and Vol+ selects it, it's the other way round.
Problem solved.

It acts normally once the system is booted up when I turn volume up or down, so I dunno. It is a mystery.
Hi guys, new on the forums.
I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello
Also, I just bought a TF700 for a killer price and he told me that someone (either him or someone else) tried to root the tablet and messed up. I've been told by the guy I've bought it from that it just stays at the Asus bootup logo.
Based on my reading from around the xda-dev board, the first thing I should check is see if Fastboot is installed/enabled. If so I should be in good shape and be able to restore the tablet, correct?
Overall I'm jumping into working with this tablet not knowing its condition so I'd like to know what my procedure should be to a) determine the problem and b) fix it.
Thanks guys!

I followed the procedure per your instrux. Still same result of "This device is unlocked" message in upper left corner. Pushed Vol up 2x, nothing. The device resets every 2 minutes or so.
That being said, I am able to boot into APX mode, however the drivers I found don't seem to be compatible with the device.
I think an issue may be that because of the fact that I'm stuck in this infinite boot loop the device never really turns off and therefore I can't get it into recovery. I think what I'm going to do is let it drain the battery and then charge it back up and try to get it into recovery mode off of a fresh power up.

Sounds like it is hard bricked to me - no fast boot and no recovery. Only known way to fix is either presaved nvflash blob files (which I doubt you have from the info above) or send it back to Asus to replace motherboard.
