Huge problem with Asus TF300TG, can't access it - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, so these are the details
Asus TF300TG
Broken touchscreen replaced with another model
Bootloader is locked
I bought an USB OTG cable, seems it doesn't work ( tested with keyboard, mouse, and also measured voltage, it's 0V ), I'll buy another soon
It has been restored to factory settings, it's stuck in "select language" stage.
I need to get ADB access to it so I can flash correct touchscreen firmware.
What I tried and it worked is fastboot, but as long as bootloader is locked, I can't boot any custom recovery. To unlock the bootloader, I have to run an .apk on the device, which is not possible. I need help, I've been struggling for over 1 week to find a solution. Thanks very much !

C'mon guys. I need help

[Solved] bricked a few days after purchase. total loss?

well i bricked it a few days after i got it..
i was installing jb update and it reset to asus screen. and it stayed on that screen. i rebooted it and when it came on it imediatly said it was wiping data from device. after that finished it reset to asus screen..
So i tried to get into fast boot usb but if the device is connected to the computer it locks the device and it never starts fastboot.
so i unplugged from pc and tried going to fastboot usb and it says it loaded, but my computer wont recognize the device when i plug it in..
im sick right now..
anyway to get this thing back operational? it was rooted and had clockwork on it but i can't get to cw with power and volume pressed.
what can i do?
had the same here. you have to update the drivers manually.
Go to the Device Manager. There should be a device called Transformer. Right Click and update the drivers manually.
Well I've had no luck. My computer won't recognize the tablet as a device at all. It seems that the tablet errors if connected and it locks up.
Anyone have any luck with Asus repair? Think they would fix it for me?
install asus pc pad for the drivers. there's a dl link in the asus support site. after that fastboot should be recognized. all you have to so then would be to flash a recovery specifically for jelly bean.

Computer would not recognize the pad as a device, so after it died i put it in the box and prepared to ship it for fix to asus.. then i read a forum about power loss resetting bootloader. and i plugged it up after a quick charge. usb is recognized and i was able to get twrp on it again.
im installing 9.4.3 because i dont want to brick this thing again. wish me luck..
help reinstalling Operating system to tf300t
i have an unlocked asus tf300t i had bricked.
since i have managed to get twrp functioning on the system. now i'm having trouble flashing my os.
the bootloader says it's 10.4 at startup.
does this mean i have to flash jelly bean update through twrp? will it brick if i do that?
any assistance would be greatly appreciated. i'm 5 days into this. owned my tablet 7. so im sad..
Happened to me too. I'm hoping that ASUS will fix it for a reasonable price. Otherwise I'm just going to get a Nexus 7.
if you just bought it a few days ago maybe you can exchange it,
in any case as said before, try installing drivers, changing USB ports, trying on another PC
what bootloader do you have?
After the battery on the unit died I got fastboot working. I fast booted the appropriate ROM for my boot loader and all has been great.
Solved by letting battery die completely

It will be good to tell more about your root.
How do you root ?
Which guide have you use ?
Which version of your TG ? before the root?
etc, more infos will be good for a good help
ASUS tf300t fix root permissions error
this was the best place i could think to post this.
I can see that you are somewhat versed with my series of tablet so im hoping maybe you can help me.
I previously had rooted my device and did so pretty easily (fastboot flash CWM-Touch, root-signed.zip) yadda yadda.
Then I deciced i wanted to install CM 9.1(stable)[or so it said]
Downloaded the build onto sd card, wiped my caches and data and all that...CWM install .zip,(good), reboot, stuck at inital cold-boot screen with ASUS and TEGRA powered by NVIDIA logos.
Found a solution to that problem @ transformerforums.com- did a fastboot: flash system blob w/original JB OTA build (took forever, i even thought it froze my computer) i had to download from the asus support site and got the tablet up and running again....BUT, and this is the kicker, no root. I tried using CWM-touch to reinstall root-signed.zip, successful. Hit reboot and CWM popped up with your user su binary may be damaged. Repair? yes. Reboots fine, but then i tried to access a program that needed root, ERROR! IS DEVICE ROOTED? pops up... I checked my /system/xbin/su. still there but couldnt do anything with it...
ANY SUGGESTIONS TO HELP WOULD BE AWESOME. This isn't the first device ive cracked so im not exactly new but dont know enough about this to try fix anymore than what ive done and ive searched the forums over for the past four days and cant find anyone or anything that is similar to whatim experiencing...
please help.
Sincerely, SIK
P.S.-DONT USE CWM-TOUCH V6.0.3 ON THIS TABLET. YOU CANT MAKE RECOVERIES!!! IT SAYS IT DOES BUT DOESNT BUILD ANYTHING!

worked fine for me, you downloaded the right tool correct?
Just keep trying every 15 min or so, you will get it eventually. It took my like 50 tries. Also, you need to be connected to the internet.
I had the same problem with mine , i had to contact asus support , they tell me that my serial number and my wifi mac adress were not in their database so the unlocking tool wont work. They did the necessary and it worked after two days.

Drivers?
so if anyone is having problem getting the tablet unlocked with the unlock tool, it's likely they messed up your serial number and mac address in their file. i know this is true for my tablet because my tablet's mac address does not match the one they have on file. however, they are being a **** and refuse to change it unless i ship it in....sigh...
How to get fastboot... unlock first

Before the tablet can be recognized in fastboot, the device must be unlocked. Only after you unlock the device will you be able to put the device into "fastboot" mode. This is why fastboot does not recognize your device.
Unlocking requires a few things:
Go to the Asus site and download the v7 tool
copy the v7 tool to the tablet
run the v7 tool on your tablet from the tablet GUI
it will install the v7 unlocker application
run the unlocker application from your app drawer
you have to accept a few agreements
click the unlock button
after that, your device will reboot
This is how to confirm that the unlock tool was successful: After your TF300 reboots, you will see the normal ASUS logo in the middle and some very small text in the top left will say: "device unlocked."
Facts:
I own a TF300T
This is my first time modifiing an Android device
I have been reading countless forum entries for the past 4 weeks, just to make sure I get everything right and unbrickable
I just unlocked my tablet last night
I am on either .29 or .30 of ICS

Moto G Totally Unusable

Hey guys. Thank you for you time looking over this.
My brother has a Moto G (US GSM version)that he's asked me to repair for him for $50 (that I really need) and I've gone through everything my limited brain can think of.
So, here's the issue(s): When turned on, the phone immediately boots to fastboot and at the bottom has two lines saying "Invalid Boot Image" and
"Fastboot reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode"
I can get the phone into CWM recovery, and that's about it. When attached via USB, the phone doesn't show connected at all. A normal bootup just kicks me to fastboot immediately. Inside CWM, I've tried wiping and all that jazz, but it doesn't seem to do anything for me. I know there are guides and such for restoring the phone back to stock everything..but I can't get the PC to see the phone at all, so I'm not sure if I'm still able to do that or not. I've not been able to find a way.
Hopefully that's enough information. I'm not too sure what else is needed. But I could really use the help here if you guys have any ideas, because I'm totally stumped. Thanks again.
You can either use a USB OTG cable to connect it to a flash drive or micro SD card and flash a CM zip. I'm not sure if your boot loader is corrupted or not, so you might have to reflash that too.
Or you can manually reflash the stock firmware from the bootloader (again assuming your bootloader works. You might be able to sideload through CWM too), but if you're not familiar with adb it might be a pain in the ass.
If you don't have a USB otg cable and want the easiest way out, go to the original development section for the moto g and go to the "Moto tool" thread. Download the GPE firmware and use the tool to flash it (I believe this also flashes the gpe bootloader so if that's your issue that will fix it too), its very simple to use.

Thanks very much for your help. I'm just wondering if all the steps with the cables and all that will still work when the phone shows no connection at all? When it's hooked up to the PC, it doesn't show connected whatsoever.
Sorry, I'm not too familiar with this stuff.

Moto G boot up failed
I have a similar problem with my Moto G 2013 LTE international version. My phone boots into fastboot, but then I cannot boot into recovery. It just says boot up failed. My bootloader is unlocked and I am rooted. I have tried to install TWRP but no luck. I have tried it using TWRP manager automatically and by flashing a zip file. I have tried sideloading, but that didn't work either. Please forward any suggestions.

This device does not have OEM unlock. Contact ASUS to try and resolve the issue with the unlock app but I suspect you have a converted phone that is getting rejected by the ASUS side. Attempting too fix it yourself will involve amending some device parameters, I think someone has added some notes somewhere on the forums here..
I made a comment on asus zentalk. I've been waiting for a week, no answer. There are 20 moderators, but one person is not responding. a disgraceful place.
Hey man i went to the internet cafe yesterday to install raw firmware. I downloaded win10 asus qualcom usb drivers , downloaded usb minimal android sdk, pressed the volume up power button, the computer did not see my phone on the start screen, I tried many times and it didn't work.
The computer sees the phone without entering the start screen. I even copied 40 movies to the phone. but every time I press the volume up/power button the computer does not see the phone when the start screen comes up.

It had HTC, Samsung, Xiaomi. I switched to ASUS. maybe my version is cn but the chinese changed it to ww! I didn't know it was like this i wouldn't have bought this phone had I known.
How do I get out of this job? I risk losing imei and more. maybe my device will be hard bricked. Flashing raw software takes a lot of effort. first of all, my computer doesn't see my device on the start screen, I couldn't even take a step. I unlocked the bootloader hundreds of times on my previous phones. I rooted hundreds of times , I installed custom roms hundreds of times,. but I could not progress even one step on the Asus phone.

Suggest using the orginal Andrid driver directly from Google. There is no specific ASUS drivers needed for this device although the one in your link may work too. And yes, you do need to sort out your driver before you can flash from PC to the device with Fastboot commands.

Hi, your device seems to be a converted chinese version (with Tencent Games on the back) so you need to use this method to spoof the region if your phone and force the bootloader unlock: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...the-bootloader-of-your-rog-phone5-5s.4371255/
Saying and complaining ain't gonna help you out.
Lost people don't wanna reply as this is covered many times and can be found with search option on this forum.
Anyway his is relevant info for you :
1: The usb c port needed to use to flash etc in bootloader mode is on the side, NOT the bottom one.
2 : if option 1 this Still not working add device manual in driver section of computer, then is driver problem.
3: adb drivers/software/map with adb commands etc needs to be present on computer, or commands will not be executed correctly and give error.
4: of you have a Chinese phone CN FW that is flashed with the WW firmware, you will get problems, only way to solve this is to use correct firmware on device and upgrade.
This is also covered in a big topic on this forum.
5: of you need to go to a internet cafe do to flashing and install firmware, and you had Samsung xaomi etc and can't work this out yourself or Ith search option, o ask myself if you should mess with the phone in the first place,
When it goes wrong, it is bad phone, crap etc.... While it is user error. No hard feelings.
Hope you know enough now and get it fixed
