[Q] Tf300T hard brick, screen won't go on - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi people,
So, during flashing the stock rom on my Tf300T (which I've used before) the installation stayed on the same spot for over an hour. I thought it was a good idea to turn off the power and do it all over again. Unfortunately the device doesn't turn on anymore. Or at least, the screen doesn't. It gets recognised by windows but not by fastboot. Is there anyone who can tell me what to do?
Thanks in advance!

2 TF700 issues 1.freezes and reboots 2. Power button turns off tablet

Hi guys I recently install Cyanogenmod onto my Asus TF700 and now every time I go to the main screen which is the home screen I get to use the tablet for a tiny bit and then it freezes and then reboots! Also everytime I press the sleep button/power button the tablet shuts down without a question. I previously had CROMI and nothing like this occurred. Does anybody know of a fix or has the same issue?
I have TWRP latest version and yes my Asus is unlocked. Please help me out here

Looks like you are using an old bootloader, it must be 10.6.1.14.x.

[Q] Stuck on ASUS logo

Hello everybody,
I hope that someone can give me some advise to get my tf300t up and running again. I wanted to install cm10.2 but I wanted to install CWM first.
I unlocked my device first with the unlock app v8 from asus.
I tried to install CWM the first time but it did not work.
I went back into recovery mode but I wasn't paying attention and pressed wipe userdata
Now my tf300t only shows the ASUS logo and the text that the device is unlocked. I can't get back in recovery mode anymore. Is there a way the restore it back to default?
I hope that someone can help me out.
Thank you in advance for your time and effort.

Can you get to the menu with the recovery options, boot android, USB, and wipe data? You can use fastboot from there.

If you cant get into there, you cant really use fastboot. Unless you made NvFlash Backups beforehand, I don't think there is much else you can do, since the recovery isn't working either.

I stupidly made no backups so what you are saying is that it is done.

I've spent a lot of time searching and it seems like that's it...
I'm on Asus screen, I can reboot it by either holding down pwr button until it reboots, or using reset switch with a paperclip. vol - does nothing, just reboots to asus screen...computer sees nothing. vol + goes into APX mode (blank screen)...computer detects with correct drivers. I've tried draining battery completely...disconnecting battery for a few days...same result.
If I had to speculate...maybe at some point someone will figure out how to use another's backup files and push them to the device in APX mode.
I've looked into replacing the motherboard...and have seen some for as low as 50$ on ebay. Personally, swapping them would be easy...but some may not have the caviler attitude with hardware swapping. Just gotta get the wife to agree to spend the $.
I'd die for a free fix, the kids really miss playing with the thing

[Q] Help un"bricking" my tf300t?

Hey guys, I recently found my tf300t tucked away somewhere. Haven't used it for absolute months! And I remembered why, I kept having problems with CM somehow(I believe the last update was somewhere in June-July of 2013), so this time after charging it and wanting to do it all again, I figured I'd get it updated. Seeing as it's been nearly a year and so much crap has changed, I figured something was going to go wrong. Before I even DID ANYTHING, I told the tablet to reboot into recovery mode, and boom that's where I'm stuck. The Tablet rebooted and now only shows the Asus boot screen... Nothing else! Vol down+pwr didn't work, nothing. And If I hold the power button it shuts off but then turns right back on 1-2 seconds later. I'm not sure what this is, a soft brick? a Brick? just an error? Can anybody please help? I know this is probably the wrong section, but I'm just frustrated.
Thank you to anybody who can help in any shape or form.
PS: no bashing is needed, my tables already bashing my head for me.

Does it respond to being plugged into a computer? Try pressing the reset button and then doing the vol down to get into fastboot.

Nope, but I am running W8 and I read that W8 kinda sucks for this sort of thing. Like you need W7 or XP? Correct me if im wrong. Any other ideas? . I didn't do anything! Just told it to reboot into recovery, and now I'm stuck there. I held pwr+volume down and it still keeps stuck, and if I try to power it off then it just turns on again a few seconds later.

I also have this issue
??
So none of you can get to fastboot or recovery, but you do all get the stuck at Asus logo?? All your bootloaders are unlocked?? All of you got to this spot, the same way by not using the tablet for long periods of time???? What bootloader are you on?? What version of CM are you running??? What is the OS of your PC, If its not the top 3 please be specific......Are you using a stock asus data cable??
Sounds similar
From what your posts say, it sounds like something i came across. I struggled for hours trying to figure out this dilemma, but if you're in the same situation i was in then as long as you're in that screen even after trying to hold the power and -vol let it sit there, plug in and make sure you have all your files associated with fastboot platform installed and try pushing the new TWRP ( http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407569892 ) to your tablet, for some reason after a certain update after 4.1 i believe? CWM stopped working for me, so try pushing the new TWRP from that link there and possibly you should be able to gain control of your tablet again and start installing the new packets for CM 11. I found this to be very helpful http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2570965 and thanks to "cmendonc2", 6 post down, he really cleared things up with his simple links. Hope you're in the same boat as i was. Good luck

[Q] Bricked Asus MeMo Pad ME172v

Hi Everyone. You can't imagine how frustrated i am right now.
I was watching a movie, then suddently the Memopad went off. Since then, When I tried to turn it back on, It just shows the asus logo blinking on and off. Like on an infinite reboot cycle. And if i press the + and - volume keys at the same time, it will go into download mode. (An android with a workers helmet, and it says "Ready for Download")
So the thing is... is it possible to flash the stock rom from a pc to the tablet? Like when you use Odin on samsung phones. Because i tried with the hard reset file. It did not work, and obviously an update OTA is impossible
I'm going nuts about this!

hello alejo65, im sorry about your frustration. i have tried to look up a possible way to get back to stock on your device but all i seemed to have found is this https://www.mediafire.com/folder/23ycdy8i4f8mu/ASUS-me172v im sure odin will not work with your memopad since its made for samsung devices only.

Yes..I found that same link. But since there's no way to even get the bootloader I wouldn't know what to do with all those files.
I don't wanna give up on this one. The warranty has expired i think... Any other idea crossing your mind?

might be able to send it to them for repairs, if you can only access download mode i dont think they can see if you rooted your device, is there a trip/flash counter?

[Q] Screen not turning on?

ive got a tf300t with CROMI-X rom, rooted of course, i was using it yesterday, had no problems with it.plugged it in, charged it overnight, and now the acreen doesnt turn on, but i think its working because when i plug it in and un plug it, it makes the sounds i have it set to make when i do so. ive held the power button down for 1 full minute, and it doesnt turn off. what is the problem???
So what I understand is that you installed CROMI-X rom on your TF300. If you press the buttons or you charge your tablet, you hear the sounds. So: your tablet is on.
What I would do: uncharge your tablet wait until your tablet goes off because of the zero battery level. Then charge your tablet again and restore the original version of your TF300T when you bought it (here, I guess).
Then make sure you have the correct everything (drivers ...) installed.
I read this at the topic:
YOU MUST BE ON JB 4.2.1 WITH THE ASUS STOCK BOOTLOADER 10.6.1.8 AND TWRP patched 2.4.4.0 or BOOTLOADER 10.6.1.15.3, 10.6.1.27.1, 10.6.1.27.5 or 10.6.2.x and TWRP 2.5.0.0 BEFORE FLASHING THIS. THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS IS TO FLASH THE STOCK ASUS 10.6.1.27.5 or 10.6.2.x FIRMWARE.

If your 100% sure you have the correct bootloader, TWRP, firmware and drivers: reflash the CROMI-X rom.
I'm pretty sure there are other ways to fix this problem, but this is the only way I would do it.

Fixed the problem!!
