power + volume up, then use 'fastboot devices' in adb see if it comes up.

Power+up is good for boot loops but if you have a recovery installed you can access it through the boot loader menu

No, stay on the bootloader interface, don't press anything, connect it to ur PC and type this in adb: fastboot devices see if you can see your phone's serial number.
oops! accidentally beamed from my awesome NEXUS S!
It doesn't show my device in the list on adb Command or fastboot

That's bad, I recommend to hand it in for repairs, since you can't even connect it to a PC nor boot into recovery.

I got it going close one! Thanks anyways for giving the time to suggest some advice.

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).

So my brother accepted the 4.2 update on Thursday. He is stock and non-rooted. When he accepted the update, his tablet was in the keyboard dock. He let it be while it updated for about 2 hours. It was still on the boot screen. Then, he detached it from the dock and put it on the charger. It's been just shy of six hours, and it's still on the boot screen. What should we do?

We don't know what happened. Do you know if the software installed but failed to boot up or it never installed? Obviously it's not doing anything right now, so you have no choice but reboot the device. If it bricked it already done.
I just rebooted, same problem.

Turn off your device, then hold down volume down and power buttons, when you see a white text on the screen release both buttons, now use the Volume down to switch the highlighted RCK to Android icon, then hit the Volume up button twice to execute. This will cold boot your device.
Same problem, still stuck on the boot screen after 3 minutes.

Seems like you're updated to 4.2 but something corrupted prevented it from booting up. Try the same procedures but this time select "wipe data" icon then hit volume up twice to execute it. This is like factory reset.
Thank you, we factory reset it and it was at 4.2.1 working properly.

Hey, Im sorry for hijacking this thread.
But I have exactly the same issue. Expect that my Tf700 wont boot, after that wipe...
Its still stuck on the "Asus" Screen.
Before I installed via OTA, I tried to save root with OTA Rootkeeper and changed nothing else. Im stock and my bootloader is locked.
I have also just 3 icons when pressing power and volume down. So I think I have a similar problem you described buhohitr.
If I boot with Volume Down and Power Button pressed there is this text:
Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "WW_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329" A03

Did you try to boot into recovery then select the "WIPE DATA" icon (by hiting the volume down until it highlighted, then press the volume up button twice. It will wipe data then reboot your device automatically.

Hello everyone,
I'm in deep trouble with my bricked phone. Yesterday I wanted to flash Cyanogenmod 11 and I was following a video guide on how to do it. The video said to flash TWRP recovery to the phone so that's what I did. I don't believe it said anything about unlocking the bootloader at all. So what happened was I flashed the recovery and the problem said if I wanted to boot into recovery now.
It didn't because a message popped up saying "A program that i not authorized by Verizon was detected on this phone" blah blah blah. And now anytime I tried booting the phone it goes to that message. I can't boot to anything. Yesterday was able to boot into ODIN mode and thought I could flash something or at least wipe my phone completely and start from scratch. Well I went to bed and thought I could pick u from ODIN mode but now my screen won't turn on. When I press the power button, the light nor the screen turns on. Now I have no idea that to do.
Things I've tried:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU5H8NJ7vTM
I tried this twice, once yesterday with a 2 GB non class 10 SD card and the other today with a 16gb Class 10 SD card that matches my 16gb S3.
Odin doesn't recognize my phone and neither does my computer.
I think my only option is to buy a USB Jig to try to get my phone into download again. Is there anyway I can make a USB jtag jig instead of buying? Would anyone in a Verizon Store be able to help me?
I don not care about the data on my phone at all, all I want to make it work again.
Please help, thanks.
I'll stop by the Verizon Store and see if they can help.
Edit: I wasted my time...

They can't, you need to read the guides on how to fix the softbrick and read up on your device limitations. Updated S3's have locked bootloaders.

Okay I'll keep trying. What probably really bricked my phone was when I tried the fix in the video with a small SD card. I didn't watch the first where he mentions it's crucial to use a 16gb class 10 card...

Your phone isn't hard bricked, it's soft bricked, that guide won't do anything for you. If you were on 4.1.2 you need to use the appropriate file or you'll lock your bootloader.

That will work, but you don't have to go through the whole flashing boot chain process, I'd use the newer guide ThePagel wrote with the 4.1.2 tar.
You should be able to get into download mode. Power + home + volume down until the blue small text appears in the corner. Then you can let go.

I think your power button is broken or the display is broken. It doesn't make sense for it to be hard bricked.

That's what the person said at the Verizon store but I don't believe it at all. The screen was perfectly fine Friday night. I didn't drop my phone at all so that the hardware could have been physically damaged.

You don't need to drop it for it to be broken, they've been known to stick. Lookup YouTube videos on how to unstick the power button.

Okay so I had the phone unplugged and without the battery overnight. I put in the battery and turn it on, phone vibrates and that's it. However, when I plug it in to be charged, now the red LED light doesn't come on and the phone vibrates repeatedly like it's in a boot loop.
How can I tell if my power button it stuck? I can feel the button depress like it should.

Send your device to a repair shop then, if you do not have experience, you will probably not be able to fix this, you will probably damage your device worse than what it is already damaged.

Is the bootloader unlocked on the device?
If not, you won't be able to change button mapping/function in recovery.
If it is, you can try building a new copy of recovery but change the keymapping/button function in the coding of the recovery before you compile the new copy.
To be honest, you won't be able to solve this with a software fix, you will have to repair the power button if you want to be able to make selections in recovery, whether you "want" to or whether you can afford it or not.
Another option is to use a USB keyboard or a USB mouse to make selections, android supports keyboard and mouse via USB.
