TF700 Stuck on Android Logo, Unable to enter Recovery - Asus Transformer TF700

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 ?

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!!

CMR false flash

failed to install nv flash, installed CM 7.1 rc and booted through CMR, installed from ex sd, now stuck in bootloop when trying recovery, no CMR loads as I have read. If I allow it to boot naturally first LG boot screen loads then 2nd and freezes. I cannot boot into recovery, s.w upgrade in progress also showing. Please tell me there is a way out of this mess.
Install nv flash recovery. You can try the one click method to install it.
I installed nv flash and I continue having the same problem It installs correctly but my phone is still stuck I hold vol down and power for an extended period first LG screen loads then second with lg screen loading bar, then white box with arrow and android character, If I release the buttons then the phone stops cycling and loads to the cm7.1 rc1 boot image and freezes (LG screen) . If I do this again and release the power while holding vol down I get the SW upgrade screen. Im guessing by loading cm7 without nvflash the first time Im done. Hopefully someone can help!
pull battery out and put back in hold vol down n power, or just flash nvflash again

I don't think you have nvflash done correctly. You should not be seeing the lg loading bar if you are holding vol dwn + power. It should be an Android screen, at least on mine it is.
If you release too quick, you will get the SW Upgrade screen.
Try and re-flash the recovery again via nvflash.
you both were right, the first and second attempt installing NVFlash it stated it was done successfully, didnt pay attention to final message stating it was missing location, I had Nvflash folder doubled up. Reinstalled Im good thanks for reminding me to retry again I was losing my mind.
Thanks again
Awesome, good to hear.

[Q] Triumph stuck at moto logo, cant get into clockworkmod

Ok so today my triumph stopped responding so i restarted it (took out the battery). then rebooted. upon reboot phone shuts down and now will hang at the motorola logo for about 10 min before boots but will shut back down due to the battery being dead(but had full charge when this started). Dont know what happened. So i try to get into clockworkmod to flash backup. cant get into it. the only thing i can do is get to the recovery.img file(pressing power+volume down). Other than that nothing.
also tried to boot with power pluged in. it stayed on but would not respond to any touches or button press except the lock button.
I have cwm 5.0.2.6 installed and tickerguy's cm7.
never had this problem till today. Any help would be appreciated.
a new development has occurred. now when i try to access recovery, the phone will just vibrate without stopping.
and i believe its stuck in a boot loop but without recovery i dont know anyway to exit the loop.
Are you able to get into download mode (power off then simultaneously press power button & vol- (should show polling))

Yes i am able to get to download mode
Well after some tinkering (replacing the recovery image, assuming something corrupted it) i can now get to recovery, still takes 10 min to load it though. But i am unable to do anything in recovery because i have to press the menu button to confirm selection but the buttons wont respond. Some help would be appreciated.

[Q] Stuck on ASUS logo - URGENT

HELP !
I have the latest TWRP and CM10.2 installed.
I wanted to get into recovery.
I have enabled the extended power options in the Developer Options, pressed the power button, selected reboot into recovery.
Until that point everything on the tablet worked perfectly.
So it powered off, and than back on BUT it didn't get past the ASUS logo...
I have tried turning it off by holding the power button but it just reboots every time, and just gets stuck at the ASUS logo...
What should I do ???

What happens when you press volume down while it is rebooting? Does it go to the menu?
can you go into fastboot?

Nope... Whatever I do it doesn't get past the Asus logo...
And No, I can't use either fastboot nor adb.
I can get into APX Mode but every time I try to execute a command is says :
NvFlash v1.13.87205 started
[resume mode]
and it stays like this untill I uplug it...
then it says:
command failure: Error querying partition type
PLEASE ANYONE ?

I have more or less the same problem. I'm trying to install CM10.2 but I have CWM v6.0.2.3. (trying to install v6.0.3.3 but no luck at this point)
When I'm stuck with the asus logo I press and hold the power button and wait for the screen to go dark and immediately after I press and hold the power and the volume down. This takes me straight to recovery.
Hope this helps

Try that, if it works and you get into recovery you can access fastboot from there to reflash a ROM.
I have tried several methods of getting into either the bootloader screen or recovery with no luck.

Zenfone 6 System Failure

So here's the thing, I was factory resetting my phone, and I guess it failed. IT's already Android lollipop. My problem is, I can't flash the rom anymore. Coz it's not booting up, stuck at booting animation, or asus logo loading animantion . And no recovery mode, I can't even go to droidboot/fastboot. whenever i try to boot in fastboot/droidboot , it'll turn the screen to black then shut down, and most of the time, when i click vol up+power button, it'll just boot into asus logo and loading screen and stuck there. So any help over there ? i really need to fix my phone right now. Reports are coming . Thank you

Unusual bootloop - can't access recovery OR fastboot but loops on "optimzing apps"

Unusual bootloop - can't access recovery OR fastboot but loops on "optimzing apps"
I had my US version OpO 64GB working with CM12 for quite a while, rooted and bootloader unlocked with TWRP (possibly 2.8.6) installed, then some months ago I tried upgrading to CM12.1 through CM updater. This failed miserably - The phone started bootlooping on "Optimizing apps n of N" - as soon as it finished optimizing apps, the phone would reboot and start optimizing again. Booting to safe-mode (Power + VolUpDown) also fails in the same way (though optimizing fewer apps).
I tried rebooting to recovery mode holding Power + VolDown but it just gives a quick buzz (vibration motor) at the "1+" screen and reboots. The same thing happens when I try to boot to fastboot mode with Power + VolUp. So I'm completely stuck. All the guides show being able to boot either to fastboot or recovery (soft-brick) or else the screen being completely black/unresponsive (hard-brick). My phone is neither of these!
I got frustrated enough that I've let it sit on the shelf for the past 6 months, but now I'd like to fix this. All help appreciated.

Did you try clearing the cache and doing a factory reset ?

That's impossible for me to do since I can't get to launcher or recovery.
No acess to recovery?? Then better take it to service center... Atleast can u boot to fastboot mode or adb accesible then use oneplus one toolkits
---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------
Install oneplus tool kit, while optimising apps it gets dectected by pc, just make it reboot mode & do reset.... Dnt worry this can be fixed, if all these seems messy then take it to service center

while things are loading, have u tried to hold vol up + power for 10 seconds or until the screen turns off and then hold vol down + power button until the oneplus logo?

Yes, just tried it. Same thing as described in my original post. When I hold power+volup the screen goes blank. I switch to power+voldown until the 1+ logo. At that point:
1. If I continue to hold the power+voldown key through the 1+ logo, the screen goes blank briefly, the phone vibrates once and reboots. If I continue to hold the power+voldown key, the vibrate&reboot cycle continues indefinitely
2. If I let go of either the power button, the voldown button, or both at or before the 1+ logo, the phone boots normally and goes to "Android is starting... Optimizing app n of 119). When the optimization finishes, the phone instantly reboots.
It's like the phone recovery is gone or inaccessible. Could this have to do with the phone tampering setting? As I said, I had this phone rooted and bootloader unlocked, working fine with CM12 for some time before trying an in-place upgrade to 12.1. That's when things went south.
