So I was trying to get HyperDrive running on my phone and had flashed it a few times. I was using TWRP to flash and accidently picked Format for the wipe. Then I flashed Liquid Rom. Realizing it was more of an AOSP rom I tried flashing Hyperdrive again. Again being stupid hit the Format wipe. Then when I tried flashing the rom it flashed but when it rebooting the splash/loadscreen for the rom just continuously played. Also I can no longer access TWRP. I tried using ODIN to put a stock rom on again, but I meet the same problem of the continuously loading screen.
Help Please? I'm slowly losing it...
Take the battery out then replace it then hit the power button and home button and volume up and try to get to recovery

did it and it goes to the samsung with the unlocked lock and says on the top "booting recovery" then goes black vibrates and then reboots
Okay I finally got it working. Not sure what caused it but it seems flashing a ODIN package that supported recovery worked its magic. From there I was able to access the stock recovery and then Flashed an ODIN package containing a stock rooted rom.
I unlocked and rooted my tablet yesterday and everything appeared to be working fine. After using it for a couple hours and restarting it a few times it stopped working and is now locked in a boot loop. When I try boot the tablet it comes on and gets to the animation where the glint of light goes across the Asus logo but it does not finish and instead it stops there and I get the moving circles at the bottom. I've left it running there for several hours and it just hangs.
I've tried erasing the data and booting to linux but the same thing happens when I try either of those.
I've also tried flashing a number of different ROMs, but all that happens is it starts installing and then I get the Android guy on his side error screen.
I hadn't done anything to the ROM and was still running 10.6.1.14.4. I even downloaded that same ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2266519 but I get the same error message when I try flash that ROM.
I would really, REALLY appreciate any ideas at all - and thanks in advance for any suggestions.
stuck on animation loop

this gonna sound odd but i had exact same prob when i rooted and flashed chromix rom. it went. what i did was flash it once with the rom with secure wipe, then i flashed again. and it got stuck at optimizing apps,then i tried reflashing couldnt get it to boot, what i ended up doing was using clockwork mod to factory reset my tablet, then had to restart, and reflash, this time it actually got to main screen. dont let it discharge/reboot for awhile as im bout to post a issue im having with it. but thats what i did to make it work for me.

I'm not sure I understand --- how do I get to the clockwork mod if i can't get past the startup animation? And I've tried a bunch of roms with secure wipe and i get an error from every one of them.
didnt you install clockwork mod first?

the thing i found showed me to installed the clockwork mod first before i did any flashing, i rooted device then i flashed once clockwork mod was installed, i had to root, then install rom manager and goo manager, from within there i installed the clockwork recovery script/mod then i proceeded to flash chromi-X DEODEX.
Did you flash the correct bootloader? I had the same problem, look for my posts in the last few pages of ChromiX.

Seems to me you installed Asus factory stock rom JB 4.2.1 (10.6.1.14.4), which means you have the latest bootloader, then you unlocked and rooted your device, however, you never installed any custom recovery like TWRP or CWM (clockmod). Now your device is boot looping. You need to boot into stock recovery by turn off your device, hold volume down and power button until you see white text on the screen, now release both buttons, you should see 3 icons (RCK, Android and wipe data). NOW you are in fastboot mode. Let me know at least you can get that far, before we continue....

buhohitr -- You're exactly right. I can boot into stock recovery. When I select Android or wipe data it goes back to the animation screen and hangs up. When I select RCK it goes to the Android guy and says installing update but then it show him fallen over and the word Error. I've tried RCK with a memory card that has a number of different ROMs on it but the same thing keeps happening.

Give this a try, the factory Asus firmware zip file that you downloaded, unzip the file, you should see another zip file, rename this new zip file to "EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip" (without quotation), then copy it to the root of your sdcard then boot into stock recovery and execute the RCK again. Make sure you don't have any other zips laying around in the root of your sdcard.
You are truly a god among men.

THIS WORKED!!! Thanks so much. I was really worried I had bricked it.
So now one last question --- WHY did that work? Is there somewhere I could go to read up on this kind of stuff? I've tried surfing the XDA forum but there's a lot of stuff like this where someone gets there problem solved, but not much explaining why something worked so I can learn more about it.

Somehow the stock recovery was reinstalled on your tablet, thus letting this method work. It however does not on CWM or TWRP. All you did was manually reinstall a stock rom back onto your tablet. How it got the stock recovery is beyond me unless you flashed a stock ROM from CWM and didnt realize what you were installing.

Since the JB 4.2.1 upgrade, this is the most reliable method to install Asus full stock firmware. Also, since you're unlocked, let root the device by go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230763 download the tool and root it. Once rooted, I suggest that you should install TWRP custom recovery, by download Goomanager from the market, open the app and tab on the 3 little boxes on the top right hand corner, select "install recovery scripts" , this will shutdown your device and install custom TWRP recovery script, once this installed, you can download "rebooter" from the market and this app has many options, one of them is allowed you easily boot into custom recovery.
My phone is rooted and still running 4.4.2 with bloat removed. The other day I decided to install TWRP Manager and upon opening it up, it gave me an option to install TWRP v2.8.5.0. So I installed it and my phone would not boot back up, just stuck in TWRP. So I found this zip file LG_G3_Flash2FixStuckRecovery.zip on XDA that allowed my phone to boot back up. But now at least once a day it reverts back to TWRP and is stuck there until I install the zip again. Anyone know how to stop it from doing this?
Ive been having similar issues with my d852 and find it helps bigtime to stay away from the newest versions of twrp until they are bug free. I installed 2.8.6 yesterday and my Phone would not restart at all or it would do what yours is doing. I'm not saying that it is definitly a TWRP issue, but I am saying that once I installed 2. 8.4 the issue was gone completely. If you try going back a couple updates to an older version and it helps let me know as I'm kind of curious
HOW did you get into recovery. I got 2.8.6.1 & I do the power + vol down button thing and it doesn't take me to recovery.

On my LG G2 VS980 I lost my TWRP recovery by trying to flash CWM Touch. Now when it boots into recovery I see a black screen with some tiny writing that instantly disappears back into a black screen and stays there until I hold power down for about 15 seconds. Originally I had stock 26A (KitKat), rooted with Stumproot and used Autorec to put TWRP on and that worked fine. Then I flashed CyanogenMod 12.1, that worked fine. Today I decided since I had CyanogenMod, I would try out their Touch recovery instead of the older TWRP. I downloaded Flashify and the latest CWM Touch recovery and downloaded Flashify and flashed the recovery with no error messages. I gave it root permission (the built-in CM root permission) and then booted into the mess I have now. I have tried to flash TWRP, but it does the same exact thing- same for trying CWM regular (non-Touch) recovery flash. None of the button combinations except power + up buttons do anything except boot into the regular phone or they boot into the broken recovery that shows the white writing that turns to the black screen of death. I tried going into settings and turning the developer settings on that says Update Recovery When Updating ROM, but that doesn't change anything. I also tried using ROM Manager, but it never worked flashing, even before. (It still does the same thing, it acts like it flashes, says its successful, then the recovery is the same. Useless.)
One thing that is odd is that I tried to use Autorec again. I downloaded the latest version from Play Store and when I tried to flash recovery with it it told me my phone was not supported- that it only works on VS980 model!?! That IS my model. So that's the gist of it. I really would appreciate any help at all. I love my phone.

Hi AndyGumpp
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
I see you've solved your problem here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...lipop-lost-t3324510/post65560638#post65560638 I'll close this thread now. Apologies for the late reply.
Thread closed.
Hey, I rooted my S6 edge (I believe just using the CF autoroot ROM, if my terminology is correct, I'm not too well versed here) and installed a custom recovery menu (TWRP 3.0) a few months ago and everything was working fine.
Today I decided that I wanted to wipe my phone, and I quickly googled to see if a factory reset from the settings app would play well with a rooted phone, and it said it would, it lied. Now my phone is rebooting only into the TWRP menu. I don't know what to do to fix it.
I've tried reloading the back up I made when I installed TWRP, it restores successfully but when rebooting it crashes. I have to reboot using Power+VolDown+Home. I also tried to just reinstall the ROM (assuming that going to Reboot - Download would be the same as using the stock recovery menu) but it also crashes so I don't think ODIN can detect it, the phone does however get recognised by my computer
I'm completely lost on what to do now, as I'm rather new to this, so any help would be appreciated!

Thank you both for replying. I couldn't get it too turn off, however I did manage to install a custom ROM through TWRP itself. I think I've just installed TWRP wrong, so thats why it was crashing, so I'll update and reinstall when I'm next at home to see if that stops it crashing. Everything seems to be working now though, so thanks!
