[Q] hanged... - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

installed katkiss 4.3 029.Installed gaps.
Tablet was fine. Google made restore for my apps.i tested a lot of them and everything was ok. When i start up to install app "outlook.com" the tablet hanged up! The screen went black...
No screen, the power button doesn't work. I know the tab is on, because i connect it to the pc and he stays in adb mode.
Wait for battery goes totally down?

Hold power button for 30 seconds, then release and power on normally ?

No. Power button don't work. I think there are only two possibilities: wait for battery goes down , or try to open the chassis and disconnect the battery...?

help please!!!

If you have adb, do:
adb reboot

[Q] Bricked TF101 - any way out?

Hi
So I have totally bricked my TF101, I basically ran the ARHD Super Wipe Full script and then stupidly hit reboot, rather than actually go an install anything.
Now my TF101 is stuck on the Asus boot screen and I can't get out of it. To top it off, my power button is totally messed up and doesn't really work anymore.
When I connect the TF101 to my computer (Win7) it tries to install the Asus MTP drivers (which fail because I get error 10, the device is not working, or something like that).
I can't get the machine into APX mode (or any other mode in that case) and I can't get ADB to work on it.
Have I totally baked the machine?
[FYI I have taken it back to Asus but for them to repair it, they say they have to change the motherboard and the cost would be HK$2,400].
Thanks in advance for any tips / suggestions.

So power button doesn't work at all?
If that's the case then I'm afraid your tablet is kinda paperweight..
Try downloading universal naked drivers and install them.. that might help in installing / recognising your tablet... I'm out of suggestions....
You can try this.. let the battery drain out.. press down volume down button and then plug your tablet into power.. as soon as screen boots up hit volume up button that should take you into recovery... once in recovery do the needful.... good luck

Did you try using compressed air on the buttons? Maybe you just have some pocket lint in there.
As a last ditch effort, you could wait for it to shut down, hold volume down, and then plug it in. If your tf boots, it will respond to the boot time commands.
APX mode might be better since you won't need any button commands once you get in. I think ASUS changes the usb ID every once in a while to keep windows users on their toes. It doesn't seem to be an issue with linux.
"As a last ditch effort, you could wait for it to shut down, hold volume down, and then plug it in. If your tf boots, it will respond to the boot time commands."
If you can do this and get into recovery you'd be closer, what recovery do you have installed? I have twrp and it supports external sd which saved me when i did this. ..
Thanks guys.
I have already tried the universal naked drivers, without luck.
I was using an old Roach recovery.
Will try the other methods. Otherwise I'm going to take it down to one of the computer centres in HK to see if these guys can do anything (and hopefully cheaper than what Asus are asking for).

Is your phone a brand new device? Have you ever mounted a custom rom on it? Because on some new slc device (like mine) download mode is "factory locked" and you have to enable it with adb. Look around for the correct guide.

Nexus 5 stuck in boot loop and cant access boot loader

i flashed the latest nightly of AOKP today and then restored all my apps and data with titanium backup. When the restore was complete it prompted me to reboot my device so i did. ever since then i have been unable to reboot my phone as it is stuck on the start up screen. i then tried to restore from a backup of my other rom and then found out that i couldn't boot into the boot loader as when i held down the power and + volume button the startup would begin and then the phone would turn off. any ideas on how to fix this.
What it's happening is your stuck in a boot loop.
When you are holding power and volume down the phone is only interested in the power button part. Which is why it's powering off.
Just keep the buttons held both power and volume down. When it powers off keep them held and you should come into the bootloader

Not sure if the quote is a typo or not, but it should be power and - volume. You can also try power and both volume buttons, which will take you to the secondary boot loader.

I assumed the op was able to completely power down by just continuing to hold the power button and possibly had the wrong button combo.
What do you mean by start up screen?
You see the screen tells you "Google" and it stays there?

Hold your power button down for 30 to 60 seconds. You should be powered down. Then try to get into the boot loader. Vol down + power. Dues it get into bootloader?

Hi guys.
Sorry for bumping but I have the same issue and for me it wasn't fixed by going in recovery mode. I already tried deleting cash, and even tried getting back to factory settings. But still, when i restart the phone, the same loop keeps occuring.
At first it always just went to 'google' and then rebooted and rebooted. Now it just keeps stuck with the google logo (the 4 colour image).
Could someone help me possibly?
Thanks in advance
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
Try LG flashtool. Link in my signature. If you have the 32GB version of the american nexus 5 (D820) you can use the converted firmware without any problem. It was tested numerous time.
You can also try to reflash stock google rom in fastboot mode http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
If you are using LG flashtool and you get error about cant format userdata and/or cache or by checking the flashing log you see timeout errors then your phone have a fauilty emmc. If you are using the fastboot method and you see "remote: flash write failure" text in the CMD window then you have fauilty emmc. Your only option is to rma your phone if bought from google or claim your warranty from LG if your phone is not from Google and you have the receipt of your phone.

How To Break A Bootloop

I had two bootloops today. One was when I was restoring a nandroid in TWRP that froze restoring data, the other was after doing a fast reboot when I installed an exposed framework module. In both cases, it took me almost an hour of holding down my power button and then getting to recovery by pressing the vol+ and power button.
So I am wondering if I have a bad power button or if something else could have caused my problem. I tried pressing the button firmly then loosely. I am not sure what I did differently to get it actually to work but I am concerned. Is there a technique to use to effectively break a bootloop?
I am rooted with S-off. I updated to the latest Verizon firmware a few days ago. I am running the GPE rom release from 4/13. I was thinking of going to a stock based rom in case this was related to GPE but I am wondering if I would be setting myself up for another prolonged bootloop.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Check my thread regarding [Q] getting to hboot with fastboot flag. My last post gives you a step-by-step on how to get to the bootloader even when fast-reboot is set.
Volume Up (hold) plus tapping power gets me in.

Holding power, vol up, and vol down button for 10 seconds is a hard power off just like if you were to take out the battery. You can do this when the phone is doing anything like bootlooping, in recovery, on, etc.
If it does not work for you, then the power button is faulty.
Do this to turn your phone off. Then vol up + power to boot directly into recovery. Problem solved.

I had this issue and was advised to hold power and vol +, well after a while that didn't do anything so I tried the good ole power and vol - and it rebooted to hboot immediately -_-

How did you get around this issue? The same thing is happening to me. A quick response would be greatly appreciated.

[Resolved] Can't go into fastboot! (PLEASE HELP)

I left my phone on in fastboot mode. The battery drained completely and the phone shut off. Now I can't go to fastboot mode. I hold Vol+ Vol- and Power in the same time. The screen turns on (still black) and after 5 minutes the phone boots up.
Please help!
(The phone is functioning fine, except fastboot)
EDIT: I'm very sorry. The problem has fixed itself.
