[Q] Stuck in Bootloop, can't factory reset - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just given an unrooted tf101 that is I can't get to turn on. It will show the EEE pad logo and if I use either the Vol up + power or Vol down + power, I can get into various menus and navigate through there, but any attempt to reset the tablet will result in an image of an android laying on it's back with a red with a red triangle and exclamation mark. I've tried a couple of the guides, including formatting a microSD and loading it with the stock firmware, but my tablet doesn't seem to recognize it when I insert the card. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks.

[Q] xoom not powering on

Hi
After being on numerous custom Roms for the xoom I decided to return to stock and was succesful in return to the 3.01 stock image for the wifi MZ604 model
I was also successful in relocking the xoom.
I then began to receive the offical updates though everytime the were applied I had to go into recovery and wipe the device as otherwise it would bootloop on the dual core screen.
On the last update that it received and that was installed , on rebooting nothing happend and the screen just went blank
No combination of volume up + power would show any sign of doing anything.
After leaving the tablet to the side for awhile I noticed it came up with the following
model mz604 : Revision0 (0x8000) modem none
InitBl Info function failed with codes 299/3
failed to boot 0x0001
starting RSD mode 3
one wire : charger is not connected or battery is not being charged
battery charge level : 56%
I tried fastbooting and adb at this point but no devices are found. However when plugging in the xoom my laptop recognises something is attached.
After some searching I found out about RSd lite and SBF files.
When opening rsdlite v5.6 (running as admin) the tablet is recognised and I have now attempted to use two sbf files
HUBWF_W5.H.6.4-20_SIGNED_UCAHUBLWFRTCOREEU_P010_A010_M004_HWwifi_hubble_AP1FF.sb f
and
HUBWF_W5.H.6.2-24_SIGNED_UCAHUBLWFRTCOREEU_P006_A006_M003_HWwifi_hubble_Service1 FF.sbf
however both fail when it attempts re numeration.
I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone could give on this
Thanks
Try this.
My mom's Xoom had a similar problem. Reboot the tablet by pressing Volume Up and Power.
Then quickly turn on the xoom and press the down button as fast as possible, and continue pressing until you see "Recovery Mode" (or something similar) on the top left of the screen.
Once you see that, press the volume up button. Quickly, when you see the Android guy with the exclamation mark tap the power button and the up button.
This will take you to recovery mode. In there use the up and down volume keys to navigate and the power button to confirm things.
Go down to restore/delete data (may vary) and press power. use the volume down key to scroll to Yes.
This will restore your tablet back to factory settings. If you're trying to backup your data, don't try... No such luck and you won't be able to without the tablet booted.
thanks for the reply but this didnt work. Tried quite a few times. The screen just goes blank and again after a long while the error shown in the op appears. Should add there is no Motorola logo showing.
I have also tried forcing fastboot by the instructions found in other similar threads but again this does not work.
I think my best bet is the SBF files , but need to understand why this is failing on re-numeration

[Q] 9.18.94.xt926 Stuck in Factor Rest

Hey all,
Earlier today I tried to update from stock 9.18.94.xt926 to KitKat. Unfortunately after the system shutdown and the package tried to install it failed and rebooted to advice me of so. I read online that I should attempt a factory reset before upgrading.
So, I went to settings -> security -> factory reset.
The phone shut off and entered reset mode with the Green Android and a Blue Matrix swirling on its belly.
Since then, the phone has been stuck on this same screen. Additionally, on this page, if I press the volume up/down butts on twice a yellow text appears showing...
'
ge 1/1
Formatting /data...
'
Turning the phone on and off with power + volume down results in the same screen.
The only way I can get the phone to boot is by pressing power + up, then choosing something besides factory reset on the recovery page.
However, when the phone boots its as if it is a brand new device. Additionally, if I am to power down the device, it reboots into the familiar Green Android and Blue matrix page.
Is there any way to fix this issue?
Thanks,
-Tsoju

TF700 Stuck on Android Logo, Unable to enter Recovery

Folks,
Here is the situation. I have a TF700T on Jellybean with the latest update. I unlocked the bootloader with the ASUS unlock tool. I flashed CWM Recovery and I then wanted to try the Crombi Kit-kat based ROM with f2fs and Overclocked Kernel. I used CWM Recovery to flash that ROM. In the Aroma installer for that ROM I chose to partition using f2fs for external and internal storage. The flash went ok and I booted into the ROM. Here is where the trouble began. I got a message from Android saying that it couldnt decrypt my file system or partition and asked if i wanted to restore the device to stock. I hit yes without thinking too much about it and it rebooted into the Android Logo and it is stuck there !!
I can't shut the device down because it restarts immediately into the white ASUS logo,then pauses for a few seconds, screen blinks, white asus logo again and then the Android Green Robot Screen again with a progress meter underneath it.
I tried holding down the Volume down and power for 10 seconds, the tablets reboots and repeats the process.. I never have an opportunity to enter recovery or wipe. I next tried holding the Volume UP button and holding the power button down for 10 seconds. The tablet buzzed and the screen shut off. I am guessing I am in APX mode.. I tried rebooting again by holding power button down and it does restart but goes into the same cycle, Screen with white ASUS Logo, Screen Blink, White Asus Logo and then Android Green Robot Screen again.. It is stuck in the screen and I cant even shut the tablet down Any idea what is going on ?

Your case is very similar this user. Check this post to see if it helps, good luck...:fingers-crossed:

Thank you !. I let the tablet sit like that for an hour and it got out of the Android Screen and tried booting the bad ROM install at which point I had the opportunity to shut the tablet down. Once I could shut it down, I could start the tablet into recovery and then I flashed the stock rom back from my nandroid backup.. Whew!!

Stock TF300T stuck on Asus logo spinning wheel screen

My mom has a completely stock TF300T that one day got stuck on the Asus logo screen with the spinning wheel. I've searched and all the threads deal with rooted devices with custom recovery installed. I can get into the screen with RCK, Android and Wipe Data by holding the vol buttons while holding power but from there I flash the Asus stock firmware but it will install and still get stuck on the Asus screen.
When I plug it into the computer, (win10) it shows under 'unspecified' as 'fastboot' (when in fastboot mode) or as 'Asus Transformer Pad TF300T' but I can't interact with it.
I just want to get into the internal memory and save the pics/videos from the tablet. What can I do?
I had a similar problem with my TF300 way back when. Looking at this thread may help because I was able to pull some of my files at the time using ADB
