I can't boot my tablet into recovery mode - Asus Transformer TF700

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I can't boot into recovery mode. I have twrp installed. Once I get to the usb symbol, that's as far as it gets. It's like it freezes. I don't know. I tried for about a half hour. I finally gave up. If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong please reply. Thanks

Sounds like you are on the old boitloader with 4 icons. The USB icon is for fastboot and won't do anything more once you select it......so that is normal.
Using the down volume control select rck and choose volume up to go to recovery.

Thanks for your help. Where do I find the latest bootloader and instructions on how to install it? I seen it on xda's site, but not sure where. Ok, I found the file and instructions, but how can I flash this in recovery if I can't boot into recovery?

You need to use the fast boot method from a pc.

My tablet freezes just before it reaches recovery mode
I'm playing hell with this tablet. Now it freezes just before it reaches recovery mode. And, I'm not sure how to get into fastboot mode. I've checked these forums, and the internet, but I can't find instructions. I don't use this tablet much except when I go out of town for work. It's rooted with an old rom. So my experiance with this table is slim. If anyone can help me with this problem you would be my hero for the day. Thanks to the people that have taken the time to help my this far.

I need help please
I have a 500.00 paper wate. My tablet will not boot. The screen stays on and I can't shut it off. I have adb installed, but my comp. does not see it. I checked the device manager and it is not there. i'm asuming it can't see it if it won't boot. If the comp. can't see the device you can't use adb. I don't know what to do. Please someone help me.

Does it actually get to the bootloader screen with the icons? If so then it is probably recoverable.
Sounds like you have a combination of wrong drivers on your PC and something got wiped on the device.
Have you seen Buster99's fixes here?

It does not get to the screen with the three icons. I freezes on the screen with the asus logo, and the wording in the up left of the screen. It says that it is booting to recovery. That's as far as it gets

And I ask you again - just as in the Minimal ADB Fastboot Tool thread:
Did you by any chance use ROM Manager for anything on your tablet?

My tablet is Micromax Funbook P310 with CWM. I Installed JETROM and booted but It freezes in Micromax logo.I tried to boot to Recovery mode but it either boots a Normal Boot and freezes or I goto a menu which i usually goto reboot in to recovery and it contains Fastboot,Recovery and Normal . I have tried all of three but each time the just goes blank and dosen't work even when press power button.I have my backup so i dont need roms. Plzzzzzzzzzzz help:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

You are far from a brick. Did you make a backup? Can you get into recovery? Do you have an engineering bootloader? Did you try to load a backup? What phone do you have?

meh, there must be a way
if you can get into recovery, have you tried a full data/cache wipe?
he said he can't get into recovery.
you should try to manually flash a recovery mod on your phone through ADB shell
Now i can get into recovery, but i got cant open chache/recovery/command error
ANDD!!!!!Now i can login into ADB shell how to reflash from .img file?
Im not exactly sure, but is there any at-boot options besides recovery (I.e. hold volume up or volume down at boot and see options (im coming from Atrix which has these))? If so, try to get into an option called fastboot. Its a protocall which allows you to use the fastboot program from the Android SDK on your computer to flash new images. There are precompiled versions from HTC (search google) that allow you to connect your device using the USB cable and flash new images. As I haven't even ever seen the device, I can't help u a whole lot, sorry.

Hello everybody. Bought slider101 us... 8.6.5.18 Successfully rooted with Razorclaw. Superuser installed.
Didnt have a chance to flash CWR.
Tried to update through asus notification that i got on my tablet. At the end of update it said something like "failure to update",but it changed to 8.6.5.21 on my tablet. After that tried to install recovery through" recovery installer", couldnt do it. I guess I lost my root on my tablet because of that update and Razorclaw doesnt work with .21 I did try to fix it through ADB commands which led my tablet to non stop rebooting. Cant load a screen after ASUS logo. It keeps rebooting.
The last try was this Nvflash "Unbricking and forever root" but when I hit download batch file it disconnects me from computer and looks like APX is disapearing on Device Manager place.
Cant load to recovery cause didnt install it. Tried to find sollution ,no luck so far. im not sure if its bricked. Thanks for any help in advance.
Update: problem fixed-- somehow could get into the screen where i could wipe data, I think it was system kind of recovery. And then installed nachoroot, cwm recovery, android revolution super wipe and ROM. Works perfect!
I belive you're not supposed to update when rooted.

There are a few NVflash methods to unbrick devices here. You should read them all in general thread and development thread and see which one suit your slider101. And when you find one, please try different PC to do it. Some PC just act strange but some would give you profit..

Just for future reference, what steps did you take to fix it? It was my understanding that nvflash does not work for the Slider at all.

I think it wasnt really bricked, it just couldnt load main desktop screen. Its stucked on ASUS logo.I managed to get into system recovery screen where u can see "wipe data" and i think an image of droid man. So by pushing volume down and turning it on u can see that screen, and u need to point onto "wipe data" little green square by pushing volume up right after Ive read something like "cold boot" written with small white letters. And then it started to wipe all data. After that it could boot to the main desktop screen. From there I rooted with nachoroot since I have 8.65.21. Razorclaw can root up to I think .19.

[Q] Stuck in boot loop, tried everything but still stuck.

Hello,
I had a rooted verizon galaxy s3 (CM10) and I recently got stuck in a boot loop. So I connected to Odin and flashed both MD5 files and the root66.tar file, booted into recovery and tried to do a factory reset.
The problem is my power button won't work in recovery mode, so I can not select anything in the menu. The volume buttons work I just cant select anything.
I've searched all over for 2 days now and I can't find anything about my problem, am I screwed or is there something I haven't thought of yet?
Thanks preemptively for the help.
bump please help
Maybe possible to send commands to phone via adb?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Which recovery you are using? Try twrp which recognises touch so no need of power button to select any option. I think class cwm also has touch based recovery.
Thanks doesn't hurt....
Thanks for the replies, I tried to run adb but just runs a lot of code then closes out. I tried to re-download and the same thing happened.
I was using the stock.vzw.root66.tar and BOOTLOADER_I535VRALF2.... I flashed them many times and nothing has changed it still just gets stuck on the 4G LTE screen. Where would I go about finding the recovery files you mentioned? I'm willing to try anything at this point.
Thanks again for the replies.

If it's stuck at the LTE logo, boot into recovery and factory reset.
Edit: to Odin flash CWM or TWRP, you can find both files in Open1your1eyes0's root thread in the dev section. Use either once you're rooted.

If you just want this to be fixed quickly, you could always flash a Full-wipe rom that contains the bootloader, etc. Then after your back in the stock rom you could always re-unlock the bootloader, install custom recovery , re-root and flash whatever rom you wanted.

Thanks for the replies, I've searched the internet for a full-wipe rom and I cannot seem to find one, can you point me in the right direction?
Also sorry for the delayed response, I actually graduated college yesterday.
EDIT: Now I can't get the phone to boot into download mode or recovery mode, the Samsung logo comes up and the screen goes black. I'm pretty sure my phone is ****ed.

[Q] PLEASE HELP! Completely stuck.

Hello XDA! New member here with a huge problem.
So I recently flashed Helly Bean 4.2.2 onto my Nexus S 4G and it was great, really fast! But for some reason, when my phone died and I powered it back on, it was stuck at the boot animation. I still cannot get passed it. Now I know an issue like this can be solved through the recovery (I use TWRP) but some months ago, my power button messed up. It's as if it's always in the pushed in position even though it isn't, it still clicks like the first day i got it. My phone automatically boots up when i connect my charger or put a charged battery in. I can get into fastboot mode but due to messed up power button, I can't scroll down to the recover option and even if i could, I wouldn't be able to execute it. So that's my problem, I'm stuck at the boot animation, and I'm stuck at the fastboot menu. Is there anyway I can reset factor settings/flash another rom/ or even revert back to stock and unroot from fastboot using some program?? I'd prefer not to lose anything on my SD card though, but if it has to be done then so be it. ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
first.. did you eneble Usb debuging when you had a working rom..?? If yes then you should try this while you have the boot loop to get into recovery.. you could then make a factory reset and you should be fine.. I hope this helps you..

[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 !

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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12

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.
