Hi. I tried installing a rom and know it just sits at the boot screen. I can get into ADB and it works. I have the Wifi Version. How would I get this thing back up.
Can you please post the links to files I need to download.

wrong section this belongs in Q&A but all you need to do is get into recovery (adb reboot recovery) and then try wiping data and re flashing the rom
Can you get into Clockwork Mod Recovery? If so, just reflash.
All you have to do is reboot the thing when you see the Motorola Dual Core screen (its red) count 3 seconds and press volume down. Select what ever option you are going to use to fix your device with the volume down. Volume up to select. Its very difficult to "Brick" a Xoom.
If ADB is working just use adb reboot recovery. If thats not working use the method above and use fastboot and reflash recovery, fastboot erase recovery then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (or flash Tiamat recovery/Rogue).
something like that pretty easy really.

Go to the appropriate sub forum and ask this.
ok so i wanted to upgrade my rom for better performance on the tablet. and at first i upgraded mt clockwork mod from 3.1 to 5.5.0.4 and after that i used the super wipe, it somehow deleted everything on the tablet and now i can only go to the cwm recovery . i tried putting the rom on a seperate sd card and installing it and this is what i get
installing: /sdcard/update.zip
finding update package...
opening update package...
(no such directory)
installation aborted
also tried hooking up to computer and doing it but all i get it the pop up "installing device android adb interface" after the installation finishes went to my comp. and was no icon to acess the tablet memory or anything, i also tries to use it as a mtp device yet no luck.
so some one please help me out
here is some additional detail

Press the Volume Down + Power Key to Power it On. You will see words appear at the top of the screen about pressing the Volume Up key to enter RCK. Do not hit the key and instead let it go to the boot menu.
Once you get into the OS, follow this.

That doesn't apply to the OP. He's not using the broken version.
And there is no OS for him to boot into since super wipe script cleared everything.
What the OP needs to do is learn to use ADB to put files on his internal SD, like baseballfanz already said.

Hi,
I tried to restore my Nexus S (european, GT-I9023) which has a broken power button before sending it to Samsung for repair.
I just screwed my ROM flash using Clockworkmod and now my phone only shows a beautiful Google screen.
When I try to use fastboot screen (using vol+/vol-) nothing moves, and even if it moved I wouldn't be able select any option as my power button is broken. I can't also access Odin (vol+ and vol- pressed when the phone is off) as I can't turn off my phone.
What can I do to flash my rom? May I send it to Samsung anyway?
Thanks for your answers!

He might not be able to. When the power button breaks, it stays in a "on" state and that messed up fastboot as it doesn't let you scroll or initialize properly.

If your rom starts booting (you see a quick flash after initial Google logo) you might be able to ADB from there (while it's not booting and the rom logo is showing, I know weird but often works). Check it out.
Edit: Oh and if you get adb access, then what you want to do is "reboot recovery" to reboot to recovery, and then wipe/flash a rom and whatnot.

You are absolutely right. The phone thinks that the power button is pressed and doesn't let us move up and down using the volume keys.
Also, even if I get adb access after the Google logo, how do I use fastboot mode? I actually wanted to flash a recovery as my Power button doesn't work even in the recovery. Moreover, I can boot into recovery without adb, from inside the rom power menu.
So adb doesn't help here

What recovery do you currently have? All custom recoveries enable you to scroll with menu and home key, go back with the back key and select with the search key. So if you can get adb while it's "not booting" and reboot to your custom recovery, then you can navigate, mount usb and transfer a rom if needed or flash one that is on your phone.
Edit: Also, I was under the impression you couldn't boot your ROM. If you can, what is it exactly that you are trying to do??

From the same thread you can simply download any of these (highly suggest ClockworkMod (CWM) 5.8.0.2 Touch, one if not the most reliable) and flash them from within your current CWM.

Ok let's get this right
What is your goal? Flash a different recovery? Then you can flash a recovery from within something such as ROM Manager if your rom still boots.
Yes sir, my goal is to flash a touch based recovery just so that I can flash new ROMs and kernels without the help of the power button.
Koushik charges for in-app flashing of CWM Touch which is otherwise free. So that's the main issue here. I guess I'll have to live with it

You can use this Flash Image GUI to flash a recovery of your choice from within Android then:

You sir, are my hero... Many thanks for this :highfive: :victory:
If you are flashing a touch version of CWM recovery, I highly suggest v6.0.1.0. The later version (up to 6.0.2.5) have a bug that will make you unable to mount the SD card within the recovery. Otherwise TWRP is very interesting, but backups made with CWM are not compatible with TWRP.
Thanks, I'll try TWRP this time
okay so i flashed cwm recovery 6.0.1.3 to my asus transformer infinity and it was put on there fine. i went into cwm and found out that the volume keys wouldn't toggle up or down. so i thought id try to factory reset the device and maybe that will uninstall cwm and i would be able to fastboot a newer version. so i clicked on wipe when in the mode before going into cwm with the 4 options (i think its 4 cant really remember) from left to right. once i clicked on this it went into cwm so i clicked reboot device and now when i reboot it shows it asus and in top left device is unlocked then goes back to cwm where i cant toggle anything except reboot. please help i dont know what to do
your help will be greatly appreciated :good: :good:

once you in recovery (see 4 icons), use volume down to switch to USB icon, then use volume up hit it twice, now your device is in fastboot mode. Connect your usb cable (make sure usb debugging and unknow source are checked in settings). From your pc now you can flash using script or manuall push it.

i dont think so i cant toggle down or up in cwm, is there some other way to flash it?
There used to be a flash binary that worked with adb (I.e. via recovery). I've not seen or heard of it for a while, but the fact that recovery can still be flashed from booted Android tells me it's still available. ROM Manager and GooManager both allow you to install recovery, so I would start with decompiling those...
First you need to access you tablet (while it's booted in CWM) via adb shell.
Second, you need to verify that the recovery can access the internal eMMC - "ls /dev/block/mmcblk0*" should list at least 8 partitions.
Then, you can put a flashable zip into and the installation command onto the cache partition - the procedure is exactly the same as the method to manually install incremental dlpkgfile updates.

Hold down the power button, as soon as screen went black, let go and immediately, hold volume down and power button, until it boot up again, see if that get you into recovery.

TWRP recovery is advised instead of CWM, flash TWRP recovery and then try your ROM again
Did you use ROM Manager to install CWM?
That does not play nice with the Asus tablets.
You can try using PERI to push a new recovery via ADB when in recovery.
I would use ADB to push the TWRP 2.3.2.3 blob myself.

If you have TWRP installed as your recovery now, just boot into that, press WIPE, then wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE, then press the Home button in TWRP to go back to the main screen and press INSTALL, choose your ROM, flash that, then clear CACHE and DALVIK again, then flash GAPPS and wipe both CACHES again, then reboot
You can also flash a kernel of your choice, KatKernel is the popular one to go with TeamEOS4 ROM

From a quick look at the PERI files I would assume this method:
Boot the tablet into CWM and connect it to the PC > USB
Download and extract the PERI files, right click and run EasyRecoveryV0.4.bat as Admin
Once its done you should have TWRP installed, instructions say it should reboot itself, but doing it from recovery I'm not sure, just make sure it says its done PC side then manually reboot if necessary
If all goes well, flash a new ROM from TWRP

I really appreciate the help man!
PERI isn't working through recovery mode I guess. The tablet will show up as a device ONLY in device manager and I cannot access any of the storage and it isn't recognizing my SD card that I literally bought new a couple days ago. Please let me reiterate. I only have access to the "stuck" screen of EEE slider and can only get as far as the CWM recovery and using the volume and power buttons to navigate. i CANNOT get past this god forsaken screen.
Those of you guys who have the patience to help people in need FOR FREE are amazing and truly deserve a kings ransom! thanks again for the help so far! I hope we can get through this!
