Hi there,
more than two years ago I installed Cyanogen on my TF300T and very soon after I sold it to a friend of mine. He used it all the time but lately it slowed down a lot, so he brought it to a IT guy who tried to uninstall Cyanogen and re-install the original firmware (what????).
He failed miserably, and now the tablet is in this situation: as soon as you turn it on it shows the Asus logo with the "this device is unlocked" thing in the upper left corner. Then it goes straight to the Teamwin blue logo and gets stuck there forever. Every once in a while the screen blinks but that's all. I also tried to power off the tablet but every time it restarts itself. The only way to shut it off seems to be waiting for the battery to drain.
Is there a way I could possibly save this tablet, installing some new ROM on it? Thanks!
Anyone?

Bad situation! Hope you can make a "buster99" to get on stock rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12).
If you absolutely cannot reach fastboot, replacing the mainboard will be the only one possibility.

Hi All,
I'm hoping somebody can help me here. I have an N8010 which is stuck on a constant reboot cycle.
It displays the "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" Logo and then blanks the screen. After a couple of seconds, then it redisplays the same logo.
It first did this on Thursday after being in use for about 30 Mins. The Tablet just hung and rebooted. It got stuck in this loop until somehow I managed to turn it off. After about an hour, it started up and worked OK, but I didn't try prolonged use.
This morning, it did the same thing, hung (Editing contacts) and rebooted. This time it started back up, but almost immediately id hung again and now it's stuck in the Reboot/Logo loop. I cannot even turn it off - It's just displaying the Logo.
I can press and hold Power/Vol Down to invoke Odin. Selecting Restart Phone just returns me to the loop.
Earlier I could press and hold Power /Vol up to invoke the Reboot/Reset screen and I have done a factory reset.
Oddly - Now I can no longer use the Power/Vol up combination to get to the reboot/reset screen, but I have managed to use it to turn of the tablet.
Occasionally there are a number of corrupted pixels flashing on the screen.
I am assuming that there is some sort of dry joint/bad connection that is warming up and causing these issues.
This Note has not been flashed with any software at all - It's stock.
Anyone seen anything like this before or should I just return it
Thanks in Advance
Steve
Return it, don't try to flash anything to it.

If it is under warranty and you are on your stock market rom then give it to a service center

Did you try to root it or flash another rom? If not just send it to service.

Thanks guys - No didn't try to root or flash at all. I'm waiting for the JB update to see if I need to.
It's working perfectly right now, While it was rebooting endlessly, I managed to get the battery display to appear - It seemed to be completely discharged. (85% a few minutes before) . So I connected it to the charger.
After 35 mins, the charge was showing 92% and it booted and has been running happily ever since.
Exactly what it did on Thursday - showed empty and then charged after about 30 mins.
I think I'll take it back and see if they'll swap it for one with the 3G. Hope that they don't have to send it away, it's gonna be my Christmas present

Good luck! Since you didn't flash a custom rom or anything, there's no reason you should have to deal with that stress.. Just return it and demand an exchange or something. If you got it at a store, they'd probably be happy to exchange it. If you got it online, it'd be a little harder and more delayed, but still doable! Good luck again!
Unfortunately there are lemons in all manufactured goods, looks like you got 1... I hope it doesnt sour your attitude towards a really good product, as long as it works....

I thought that I should let you guys know the outcome.
I was not soured at all, I took it back to the store, and was told that they would have to return it
So while I was there I bought a N8000
Jelly Beaned it, rooted etc This thing rocks
Hi Everyone,
I know there have been a few posts regarding the issue I'm asking about on this forum earlier but I do not see any real resolution yet.
The status of my TF300 currently is that it is constantly stuck on the Asus logo screen. The next screen of RCK, Android & Wipe option does not appear even if I try to do the Power+Volume combo. Hard Reset through that small pin-hole opening does not yield any result either. The tablet restarts and gets stuck exactly at the same Asus logo stage. :crying:
Worse, my PC does not even seem to recognize the device when connected through USB. Any idea what can be done to resolve this?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

What happened to the device before this occurred? Misflash? Wrong BL?

Nothing really happened before this stage. I successfully unlocked it as it showed that (and still shows) on the top left corner but I could never really get to the next stage to do anything. It just started getting stuck on that screen the moment I tried to reboot and get it to the options screen. Been stuck ever since.

Power off by letting the battery go dead. Maybe that clears some residual memory. Else it doesn't look good.
Thanks Berend
I did power off a couple of times by draining the battery completely but no luck. I guess it's time to lose hope now - unless anyone else has any suggestion. I see this as a problem with a lot of users but every suggested fix is overlooking the fact that we can't access the 2nd screen of options.

Hi i am new here and was hoping that i get a solution to the problem that i have been trying to figure out for a few days now. I searched a lot before posting but wasnt able to find something related to this. My phone is an HTC One M7 and i was trying to update to the latest OS when the phone stopped booting into it after the update as it got stuck at the boot screen. So i waited for an hour until i decided to shut it off and when i tried restarting it, the phone stayed stuck at the HTC logo not even the ONE logo screen.
So i read a few suggestions and went into the bootloader > recovery and cleared cache and then restarted the phone as per the instruction i got afterwards. This time it kept cycling around the boot screen and black screen and so on. So i again went into bootloader and decided to *power down* the device till i was able to learn what to do next but to my surprise, the phone doesnt boot anymore into whatever there is - tried Power + Vol down, Power hold etc.
The phone charges though and is currently at 100%. So i am right now in a dilemma as whether to continue trying to fix this by myself or just send it to the service centre where they will charge around 300$ for this to get repaired while telling me that something got fried on the inside.
Thanks in advance!
Has anyone had or experienced the "Blue screen of DEATH" well thats what im calling it.
So i had rooted my tab and thats all i had done to it years ago. It then started playing up, screen flickering, random reboots and bootloops. So yesterday i flashed a rom that i found on here and its all been downhill from there. Reboots, bootloops, hanging on the "samsung" logo. The final part was the blue screen.
Anyone know how i can get back to stock firmware. Sammobile has the firmware but when i flash via Odin it hangs on the Samsung logo.
Any help or advice would be greatful

Read the threat " flickering screen " for more information: reboots, bootloops, hanging on the "samsung" logo are all common problems of cracked battery connector. This is an easy fix by resoldering the battery connector.
Blue screen of death, I only see it in SM-P907A from AT&T runs Kitkat, upgrade to Lollipop will solve this issue.
I had this same issue with KitKat and read on here in another forum that upgrading to Lollipop would fix it and it didn't fix it but what did fix it was taking the back off my tablet and unplugging the battery...holding the power button to release any excess power then plugged it back in. Once it booted up I downloaded Repair Battery Life by ToTheTops Apps and ran it....since then I have not had a single blue screen or flicker. This is after a month. Plus once a week i run the repair and so far, since the first time, there has not been any issues with the cells in the battery.
Now I am not going to say this will work on yours but it is something to try. It has worked for me.
Hello, Nexus 5 forums. This is my first post on here, because I never even tried to root or install a custom ROM on my Nexus 5, having bought it for the official updates from Google and all that stuff (I had a Galaxy SII before this phone, and I frequently visited the XdaDev GSII forums because I installed CyanoGenMod on it).
I'll go straight to the point. My phone suddenly started rebooting randomly today, and by the end of the day it was stuck in a weird kind of bootloop. The Google logo would pop up, and right as the MM boot animation started the phone would reboot and the Google logo would show up. Right now, the phone's battery is probably dry, so that's why the phone isn't bootlooping, but it has done so for 3-4 hours before shutting down. I tried opening the phone, removing the battery and putting it back in, but the phone just kept bootlooping. I tried both getting into the stock recovery and into download mode, but the phone keeps on rebooting as soon as I get into download mode.
Can I do anything to fix this or is my phone doomed to the eternal bootloop?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
Sounds like there may be a problem with the power button.
Same thing happened to me like 5 times now. It is the power button. What I do is knock it on the side of a table below the power button. I just need it to last until the new nexus is released, so I never investigated the proper fix.
I understand, so my problem is more a hardware than a software issue. I tried knocking the phone on the side of a table like @NicksSpleen said, but maybe my problem is more serious. What can I do to fix this? I need it to last until Christmas, as I'm going to get a new phone then (maybe the Nexus Sailfish, if the price is acceptable).
EDIT: Double post.
I disassembled my phone and fixed the problem by cleaning the power button. Works like a charm. Thanks for all your suggestions!
Anything other than the power button?
