I was trying to update the version 4.2 of android to a more current, first I root With fasboot superuser and using the wipe pass and not go along. The tablet in the left corner says "this device is unlocked" I can not do reboot with power and volume key, pc recognize not on, only recognized in apx off mode. I have it long time so when I take to the asus service told me I had to change the main board that cost more expensive than the tablet. Please if anyone can help me.
Sorry, only APX = dead. You need a new mainboard

Hello Folks,
I seem to have a problem and I can't find an answer in the forums.
I rooted my Asus Transformer with Android 3.1 using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714
I only rooted the Transformer, I didn't install CWM. Everything was working fine until my overenthusiastic wife updated the tablet with the 8.4.4.11-20110711 update. Suddenly my tablet was unrooted again. I thought "No problem, no harm's done, I'll just reinstall the stock 3.1 and then root the device once again and just leave the new update for what it is for the moment."
The problem is that I can't get into APX mode anymore. When I try to start the device with vol+ and the power button, nothing's happening. Both buttons are working fine (neither's stuck). I thought that the device might just be showing me a blank screen but when I press and hold vol+ and the power button for 5, 10 or 30 seconds then wait 30 secs and start adb.exe it says my device isn't connected.
When I press vol- and the power button I do get the option to wipe all my data and factory reset (which I tried and is working).
When I press vol- and the power button then vol+ when it's booting to get into RCK (recovery kernel mode) I get a droid image with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark. Nothing happening.
Anyone got a clue what's going on and or how I can solve this issue?
The Transformer is working fine besides not being able to get into APX mode btw. I can use it, just can't root it anymore.
same situation here, just bought my eeePad today, updated to .11 version....now trying to root but can't figure out how...
I'm having the same problem. Brand new transformer, rooted it, and now I can't get it to boot past the splash screen. Tried putting it back into APX mode, and it doesn't work. Anyone find a solution to this?
I didnt even root mine and i have this ****ing problem -.-
Same problem..
You'll notice if you watch the device manager on windows, it flashes a refresh but the device doesn't show up. Looks like it's trying to work but doesn't catch..
SSame here after using Brk's on my 3.2 B70 tf101.
Same here. 3.1, rooted, CWM.
Same here on an Asus running Android 3.2.
Serial number B60KA.
Build number on mine is 8.6.5.9-20110816.
Anyone find a solution to this?
My friends tablet is at HTK75.US-8.6.5.13-20110925 and I just got it in to APX mode.
I had the Transformer turned off and plugged in, held vol up + power until I hear the first US notification noise and released the two buttons. The searching for drivers screen came up and it installed "Nvidia Bootloader Recovery" And now my safe to eject calls it APX.
I found if you hold the power and volume up for too long it messes things up.
Any news anyone? I would love to know how to do get into APX mode. The volume + and power is not working for me like the others (did it all conceivable ways).
APX already on
Hi, I solved this problem very easy.
Just connected my eeePad, installed the APX driver after Volume up and Power on Button and it was working. You will see nothing on eeePad screen. Just check the device manager on your computer.
My Tf got stuck at the logo Eee Pad boot after I tried to restore the old rom, and now it can't do anything except boot and stuck at the logo.
I tried the nvflash unbricking technique from rayman84 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123429
, but my TF only listed as unknown device when I tried to get to APX mode and it also said,
"This device is disabled because the firmware of the device did not give it the required resources. (Code 29)"
Now I don't know what else to do. Please help! I hope I am not completely bricked the device yet.
Have you tried the button combo to get into recovery?
Press and hold the Vol down + power button.
When prompt, you'll see lines of words at the top left of the screen, push the Vol up button immediately within 5 sec to get into recovery.
Apparently, I didn't know the button combo. Anyways you save my niece's TF. Thanks a bunch
Edit: although the tablet is working now, it still got the message usb unknown device. Do you know how to fix it?
Hi, i don't know if i should post a new thread but my problem is almost the same as bengob3t's one.
I have a brand new TF101 with a B70 Serial number, but i successfully rooted it using the RazorClaw Tool. Then i tried to install clockwork mod followin this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106587
I directly applied the instructions from step 8 (download hashmyfiles etc...) and i rebooted my Eee pad manually step 13
I didn't see any progress bar, but my device is stuck on the Asus screen, and the speakers make stange noises at regular intervals.
I am able to go into recovery though (power + vol down then vol up) but the factory reset doesn't work, and i cant really do anything (at least not anything that i know what it is).
Is my tablet definitely bricked ? If not, how can i bring it back to life ?
I wasn't able to use NVFlash, as i can't seem to go in APX mode. I press power+vol up, i hear the sound usb device connected and immediately after i hear the sound "usb device disconncted"
Nvflash says
"Nvflash started
rcm version 0X4
Command send failed (usb write failed)"
Thanks in advance for your help.
EDIT : When i put the micro sdcard from my phone into the tablet, i am able to mount it. So i will probably be able to flash something from it, but what ? Do i have to flash a recovery ? Directly a custom rom ?
I'm a little lost, but i'll try to give you guys as mush info as i can find.
EDIT2 : I flashed the PRIME rom, everything seems to be back to normal... if you got info on my situation, don't hesitate to fill me in ^^ i'd like to understand what i did wrong, even though i dodged the bullet.

Do you have the correct driver installed? Do you have Asus sync install on your PC?
hmm.. I'm not sure. I downloaded the unbricked tool nvflash file, and the tool already had usb driver inside it. Is that the driver you were talking about? I never were able to get to the point where I need to point the APX to where the driver located because it always said unknown driver the whole time.
Hi All..
My TF300 is unlocked. I installed the new JB and then I was trying to install CWM. I used fastboot to push it to the device. When I rebooted, holding down the volume button, It came up to the menu with RCK, USB, etc. I selected wipe data by accident. It sat there for a while saying it was going to wipe and go into the boot loader. After a while I shut it off thinking it was hung. Now when I power on the device I get only the ASUS startup screen. Volume up or down don't affect the mode. It just says "The Device is Unlocked" at the top, and the static ASUS logo in the middle. When I plug in the USB to my Windows 7 computer I get nothing in the device listing. I can't even fully turn the device off. Holding power for a few seconds, it goes off, and then it comes right back on by itself.
I think I'm totally bricked, right? It won't even go into APX mode it appears.
thanks ...

When you hold down the power button to turn it off, as soon as the screen goes off, let go of the power button and hold the VOL up button. Wait a second or so and then let go of the VOL button. The tablet should go into APX mode. It can be quite hard to time it right, but the tablets screen should stay blank, without rebooting.
thanks for ur care
i forget to update the post ...sorry
.....i do that and my pc show apx driver but fastboot did not work ....
how can i use fastboot again to install bolb again ?????????
thanks in advance

I've been searching the web for two weeks - nobody has a solution !
I've tried everthing.
Asus has a way to reset the OS as several owners have sent their unlocked "Bricked" tablets to their service center.
Last repair I read online stated that Asus returned their TF300T with the latest version of JB installed.
Asus would be Wise to post a solution - Imagine the goodwill that would generate.
Many thanks...
Q:did asus change mother board?
Or it kind of software fixed
I read about SKB..... What sbk?
Hello everyone,
some days ago I flashed Android Revolution HD but shortly I've found out that the TF101 wasn't recognized anymore by my PCs. When I've inserted the stock cable the tablet turned on but nor win 8.1 64bit nor windows 7 64bit recognized it. It even hasn't appeared between the unknown devices in the related window, so I couldn't install any drivers. Then I've decided to clean cache and system on TWRP recovery and after reboot the TF101 was stuck on logo screen, the boot one, not the next one with the ASUS logo.
Now the stock cable and the stock charger still work, they charge the tablet but the charging screen doesn't appear, if I turn on the device, it shows only the first android logo with the green bar, if I try to enter recovery with volume down button, it says 'entering the recovering' but it doesn't go any further. Last chance is the APX mode, with the volume up and turn on button: I've tried it but I can't recognize if it enters APX or not, I only know that in the devices list doesn't appear any unknown device, and I'm sure that the TF101 has never been connected before to this PC. At least, if I was able to connected it in APX I would use Easyflasher and flash stock rom.
Basically now it's a bricked tablet, any help please? Someon can tell me specifically how to enter APX mode, or is it a cable issue? Is this thing called 'governor' related to this?
I've had my eee Pad Transformer TF101 for a few years now. I've had it rooted for most of the time, I've installed several roms before. But a few months ago I hard bricked (Pretty sure it's a hard brick) my tablet installing a new rom.
It will turn on, but it well stay on the ASUS logo for 5 minutes then turn off and start back at the ASUS logo until it turns off again. I use the power and down key to somewhat access recovery. I attempt to access recovery but all I get is a screen with an android on it's back with the red explanation point signal. The blue bar under the android acts like it loading, but I never get past this screen, and after a few minutes it will reboot to the ASUS logo again.
Also when I plug my tablet into my computer it will recognize that something is plugged in but is unable to install the driver. I've attempted to install other drivers but my computer wont allow me to, it keeps telling me the driver I have installed is the best driver, even though its not working.
I've looked all over xda, and I've tried easyflasher and peri. but I'm unable to connect to my computer successfully in order to get either to work.
Does anyone have any advice?
You need to get the Universal Naked Drivers installed
If you are running 64bit Windows, disable driver signing from safemode options - or use Win 7 32bit
Win 8.x needs driver signing disabled for both flavours
--
You need to stick the TF into APX mode (Power off then Vol up & power till the PC recognises it and tries to install the drivers) then install the above drivers and try Easyflasher again
I got the Universal Drivers working a few hours ago. I was able to boot into APX and have my transformer recognized by my computer. I ran Easyflasher several times trying to flash a recovery and using the stock/unbrick option, but it hadn't ran all the way through or told me on the tablet that it was successful until a few minutes ago. I tried again a few minutes ago and Easyflasher went all the way through and the tablet stated on screen that it was successful, excpet now I can't boot at all or even attempt to pull up recovery, it now doesn't boot into anything but APX.
Did you use the correct SBK on Easyflasher?
B6O serials and earlier are SBK1, some B7Os too, the rest above are SBK2
Wont do any harm using the wrong one, it just wont work
And to get out of APX mode, hold power for 30 seconds~, then power on normally
--
Did you try flashing it back to stock using the stock firmware instructions on the Easyflasher page ?
If you only flashed TWRP recovery, you will need to power on normally (not recovery) at least once and hopefully see the blue update progress bar under the ASUS logo for a few seconds while it updates RCK - then you should be able to power off and press VOL DOWN & POWER till you see the white text at the top of the TF screen - then release all buttons and within 5 seconds, hit POWER UP once to enter recovery
