[Q] Bricked TP...stuck on hp boot logo.. help plz! - TouchPad General

I was installing cm7 on touchpad and was following the steps to letter until I got to step 6 of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1305891
think something went wrong and my touchpad is now stuck on hp boot logo and it wont turn off/ wouldn’t respond to any hard buttons etc.
I extracted the ACMEInstaller to palm, inc and moved the folder to c:\program files
Directed the command prompt to that folder and typed
novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller
it said couldn’t recognize the command something like that… I played around a little by extracting ACMEInstaller to desktop first and then to Program Files (x84) and directing the cd to the folders but nothing worked…a few times it denied access and other times it simply said it couldn’t recognize….
I have raad that touchpad is unbrickable…. So can anyone provide me with any information on how to unbrick the touchpad.
Thanks.

Hold power and hit the home button 15 times. Should reset. Try again.

Tp was stuck on hp logo the whole night. When the battery died,the screen turned off.I charged it again and it booted into webos...... so its good now. I got stuck on how to install acmeinstaller and then the dos command wasn't working for me. It still ain't working :-(

Bricked AC100

Hi everyone
I got the AC100 and tried to root it and install the Gapps (i needed Gmail and Calendar).
I messed around with the adb from Google SDK and i erased the files from "system/apps" by accident
so the device now got stuck on the startup screen (the android logo keeps flashing once per second)
I searched the web alot and found instructions on how to enter recovery mode
so know i have the ac100 conected via USB to my XP machine, and i have installed the nVidia USB recovery driver
(it showed up as APX in the Device Manager once i turned on the recovery mode).
I can get to the restore screen (holding HOME while powering up) and i've tried a few "update.zip" files on a SD card, but i get the exclamation mark in the triangle as soon as i hit "1 - update" and then the device resets.
I have NVFlash downloaded and it sees the device (nvflash --sync displays info the way it should)
Can anyone please help with instructions on how to get my notebook working again?
I'll be pleased with the stock Android, i'd be happy with Cyanogen Mod.
Please help.
Thank you.
PS. sorry if it's the wrong thread, but as i've read the Folio and AC100 are pretty similar.
best option is to just push the relevant partition images using nvflash, no need to use recovery. If you have an update.zip, that should have the files you need. Have a look at the wet-paint wiki or ask on #ac100
Thanks for the reply
I do have an update.zip, but i'm not quite sure how to push it with nvflash.
I've search alot around the forums but haven't found anyone with a problem like this or i couldn't really understant the steps (in some cases, one of the steps was "push the file to the device with nvflash" but i'm quite a beginner and i would need more detailed info.
I'll try the IRC # as well but if anyone can post here a method, i'd be really glad.
Thanks
UPDATE:
Ok, with the help of some people over on #ac100, i managed to download part8.img to partition 8 (which was the apps partition) but now the devices freezes on the TOSHIBA logo screen.
Any advice?
Good news
I finally got it to run. I used the backup partition imgs i found (along with the partition table txt) and rewrote all the partitions with NVFLASH using the rawdevicewrite method described here:
tosh-ac100.wetpaint.com/page/Backup+and+Restore
It's back to stock android right now.
I'll look into installing Gmail and Gtalk later on and MUCH MORE careful
If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be great.
Happened to me too
Hi there, I had the same problem that yours and I have solved it this way:
Prerequisites:
Tegra2 Drivers 2 abailable
Android SDK in your system
A working ROM (folio mod for example)
How to:
Extract update.zip to a known folder
Power on the folio.
When see toshiba's logo push power button 3 times and then Volume UP
Connect to the computer
Move to android sdk tools (using CMD)
type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (maybe a route is requiered for last one)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
put the full update.zip file into SD and do a normal update
I hope this helps.
thanks metuskale
i got my to work as well
cheers

Stuck on the BIG USB logo

Hello everyone, I been trying to install this CM7 on my touchpad for the last 24 hrs with no luck. I tried to use different computers, desktop, laptop both on win7 64 bit and even my netbook win7 32 bit, still no luck.
Every time after i entered the command at the command prompt, novacom boot mem:// ( ACMEInstaller it just stays on that BIG USB logo in the touchpad, I even let it sit for like 2 hours, still nothing is happening. Any ideas on this? Thanks.
novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller
Use "<" instead of "("...without the quotations.

>>[HELP!!]Transformer Prime Stuck at ASUS Boot<<

Okay guys here's the dealio-
I recently got my transformer prime and I *loved* it. It came pre-loaded with the .21 version of ICS, which can't be rooted as of now so I downgraded to stock .15 with a modified ViperMod and then rooted and installed CWM. Next, I installed the Gummy custom ROM onto my prime (still .15). Well, I started to experience some weird -probably ROM related- issues and I ended up deciding to flash back to stock. ...BIG MISTAKE on my part I found out! I used the modified ViperMod to flash back to the stock .15 and it ran through the process but stopped at the ASUS boot logo with the little loading circle going around and around and around. First I let it sit for a VERY long time-stuck on boot. Then, I tried turning it off and back on-stuck on boot. Next, I tried pushing down the little recovery button-stuck on boot. I tried booting into CWM, but obviously, since I flashed back to the stock .15, all I get is the android guy laying in his side with the red triangle.
I am really really hoping that this is not a hard brick because the error that people are describing is the tablet stuck in the screen with "EeePad" in the middle and then getting something about an "unrecoverable bootloader error". My tablet boots past the EeePad screen and there is no error message-just the endless loading circle.
I am hoping that one of you smart guys could have a clue on how to revive my tablet. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and maybe I can buy you a beer if you bring my baby back to life
Here is a picture of what it looks like (circle is still spinning):

so you can get into recovery? I saw you said you tried to flash cm9 again. if you caught in a bootloop, jemaine made a zip file you can flash to get you out of it. you have to search for it though in developement section. does your computer still recognize your prime when you hook it up to your computer? you may need to adb commands into prime.
good luck getting it back running.

I no longer have cwm installed, it is just the stock recovery so I cannot install any .zip's. Also, when I plug the tablet in wile its on the Asus loading screen, the computer DOES recognize it. Maybe there is some way to get into it and reflash?
Any suggestions guys?

When you say your pc can see the prime can you see it with adb? If not go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502
Once you have adb figured out you should be able to reflash recovery. See this thread:

I used method 2. You will need to push the blob file to your prime using adb. Hope that helps.
Won't turn off and stuck on Boot screen PANIC!!!!
I'm running CM9 nightlies on my 64gb TF201 and have had no issues with it. I'm using GooManger and Teamwin for recovery and have not had any issues in that department either. Until now.
So 2 days ago a nightly was released that I flashed with out issues. The updated ROM however wanted to open the virtual keyboard when I started typing so I decided to revert back. I did this by just flashing an earlier released nightly. It went through the process and then restarted. The boot screen came on and then never left. If I try and turn it off it just restarts. I can't get it into recovery but I can get into fastboot. However I don't have a little Android symbol just the wipe data and USB. I don't have a backup on my computer that I can push through. I flashed CWM recovery through fastboot in hopes of then being able to get into recovery but with no luck. I used transformerprimerecovery.zip followed all the instructions got an "OK" and "finished" on CMD. At the same time the little progress bar on the TF showed that it did something but no change with my condition.
When I'm connected with fastboot it doesn't show up on my computer as I found to be expected. In device manager Android Phone is listed and when I click on it ASUS Android Bootloader Interface shows up stating device is working properly. If I open CMD and type "cd" it just replies C:\users\Josh>. I tried to wipe data to see if it would and it said it did but still no change. I've been reading for the past two days and haven't found the same set of problems yet. I've found similar issues but not all together.
Please if anybody has a suggestion for me I would be most Thankful. I've not had any luck with my searches
Thanks
Lifewithsuzy, try this, it's what I did when I screwed up my tablet, and it's helped a few others.

I haven't been able to try this yet for I seem to be having ADB issues. SDK is updated and current and I have the latest universal driver setup. I show up in device manager but not in the CMD prompt.

I seem to be falling further down the rabbit hole. I mentioned above that I was able to flash CWM recovery via fastboot was not able to access it. I tried the same process with TeamWin recovery. It just stated that the specified path could not be found. So I'm losing features now.

When you are trying to flash anything in adb or in fastboot, put the file in the same folder as those .exe files. Manytimes it is a typing mistake on the path that kills you. Also remember to add the.zip at the end of the file name if applicable.

No luck. I've tried rearranging all the files associated with adb and fastboot I can think of. I've opened the CMD window from about every file as well as from the start menu and I can't get CMD prompt to recognize the tablet. The tablet allows me to get to the point where it states that it is "starting fastboot USB download protocol". Device manager shows Android Phone > ASUS Android Bootloader Interface. And when I remove the device it shows it listed as "fastboot device". I'm stumped on getting into CMD and can't do anything until I do. It just stays on the boot screen until I force it off. And if I'm not holding down the volume up button when I do it, it just recycles on. I've found post regarding the boot screen locked on but everybody has been able to fix it through a properly functioning fastboot/ADB.

The command window should be opened from the same window (folder) you have adb.exe or fastboot.exe in otherwise it isn't going to work unless you have the exact path which is easy to kame a mistake on. I would try the following:
If your not on twrp I would fastboot install it first.
Install universal naked driver
Download and unzip nvflash file
In the folder window where adb.exe is, press and hold shift, and right click and select open command prompt here.
Now do adb devices
You should see you device
put you rom in the same folder and push it to the table
reboot to recovery and install

Help with Nvflash for asus!!!

I downloaded nvflash to restore my tf101 and followed all the instructions. I installed the drivers for the tablet and then proceeded to click on the download batch file in the nvflash folder. Now there is the problem. I put the tab in apx mode and click the download button and the command screen appears for a second at the most and then disappears and nothing happens! I checked the compatability and everything seems to be fine. Any ideas?? I've been almost two months trying to restore this thing and i'm becoming a wreck trying to fix it! Any help would be great..Thanks...
Try launching the batch file from the command prompt versus double-clicking.

How do I run it through the command prompt? I know how to reach the cmd but not that exact file!

You can exit APX mode by pressing power button for a few seconds and allow to reboot to android.
The .img files will have been created in the folder from which you are running the command window.
