[Q] - TF201 - booting big problem :( - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

after installation: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.8-tf201.zip
think my tablet is broken: (
Do not start!
if I want to run in recovery mode (PWR + Vol-down)
I have just read:
Android cardhU-user bootloader ,2.10 e. relased by "WW_epad-9.4.2.15-20120221" A03
Booting recovery kernel image
and nothing more
tablet hangs on this screen
What can I do???
ADB device not found
only works : APX mode

How about fastboot?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201

How can I run mode fastboot?
I choose at startup:
recovery mode - pwr+vol-
APX mode - pwr+vol+
any other combination?

RMA is probably only

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22897771
There is no APX mode here. When booting with vol -/power, and doing nothing after, you must face a screen with three icons. You go on the middle icon with vol down and validate by volume up and you're in fastboot mode.
When booting with vol down + power then immediately after volume up then you boot in recovery mode.
Are you sure to do the right thongs?

the problem is that when booting with vol -/power, I've screen with "Booting recovery kernel image" and nothing more!!
I don't have with three icons

No,
From CWM 5.5.0.4

have you tried to install the drivers in apx mode?

Yes,
APX it works very well, but nothing can do about it.

When booting, are you trying to boot into recovery or is it automatically booting to recovery.
After flashing the recoveries that Roach has in his thread, you have to let the tablet try to boot normally. This is the point at which the recovery is actually flashed.
When you flash the zip it puts the files to the staging partition and then when you boot normally the staging partition flashes the new recovery.
I hope that all makes sense.
Basically if you haven't tried to boot normally since flashing the zip, then the flash process has not yet completed.

Well, I had the same problem today... and am in the same situation... rebooted the system after flashing and it just sits at the screen trying to boot into recovery... Can get into APX but not into recovery or Fastboot.
I guess I either send it in for service, or wait for NVFLasher.

Well after some long conversation with Asus, basically it is bricked. I can send it to them at my expense and they will give me a quote on repair. They said according to their records my serial number has the bootloader unlocked and is therefor off warranty.
This is true, but I just wanted to offer an update on my situation..

great , i think i did the same thing
can you pass me the contact?

What is the combination to boot into recovery mode on samsung galaxy i5500

My samsung i5500 wont boot normally so I want to try booting it into recovery and reseting it. Ive tried power, centre key and volume down. which I thought was the recovery combination but it just comes up with an icon saying downloading and does nothing.
If anyone else knows a recovery combination or another way to fix it please comment
according to a post here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-781149.html
It's the volume down, then center key, then power. Make sure your not letting go after pressing them in that order... Order is important if you were doing power, center then volume down it will not work in that order.
I'm also trying to get into recovery mode to clear the dalvik cache and I'm stuck on the same downloading screen. I connected the usb cable, waited 5 minutes, started kies, waited 5 more minutes. What needs to be done on the downloading screen?

There is no key combination for this device.
In order to get to Recovery you need to boot Android, enable USB Debug Mode. Then connect to PC via USB cable, open ADB and type "adb reboot recovery"
If you cant boot into Android you'll need to flash recovery with Odin and it'll boot into Recovery after flashing.
also if using CM7 you can choose to boot into recovery when restarting phone.
If there is a way to boot to Recovery from download mode please someone explain how.

On my GT-I5500M, after installing CWM via Odin, from powered-off state, I can press and hold Volume Down, Start Call, End Call (3 buttons simultaneously), hold 'em past the Samsung boot screen, and you eventually get into Recovery mode without going into Download mode. YMMV but it works for me.

Hi,
I have the same problem as the author of the topic, my galaxy GT-I5500 doesn't turn on, it's on an unlimited boot loop, i can enter on Downloading mode, but if i connect the phone to the computer, the computer doesn't recognize the phone (probably because of lack of driver's), so, i can't access ADB or Odin, or do anything, could you please help me ?
best regards!

Adb Acess at boot?

Is there any way to access adb during boot? I want to be able to clear the cache on my phone, because i recently restored to the stock software. But there's one problem, when i repaired my screen, i nicked the volume control ribbon cable, and i've lost my volume buttons. So using the home/power/volume up combo won't work for me.
Any suggestions/ideas?
I have a usb jig to get me into download mode, so i have the ability to use odin, is there an odin package that i can flash that will just clear the cache/and do a factory data reset?
Can anyone steer me in the right direction? I just need adb access at boot, or a flashable odin file that will only do a factory wipe
Change csc...if you change csc it will duo factory reset.

I thought you could boot into recovery using fastboot which would have adb access

I thought he could boot the phone since his power button is working.
Anyway, I tried it on my phone. I shut it down and powered it on. As soon as the boot animation started the device was detected by the command
"adb devices"
Then I just used
"adb reboot recovery"
and it immediately rebooted (mid way through boot animation) into recovery.
I hope this clears things up.

Thanks for the reply, i've tried this But for some reason when i do the adb devices command it only says " a list of devices attatched" and no device id.
I'm in a boot loop right now, and my computer does recognize the connection to the phone, maybe the adb drivers aren't installed properly?

I tried that, still stuck in a boot loop Oh well I've ordered another ribbon cable and volume buttons for my phone.
I can't think of anything other than trying to flash stock ROM using Odin or better a pre-rooted ROM which hopefully will boot normally and also give you reboot into recovery in power menu...

I did try to flash back to stock, as well as partitioning the phone with odin, but it still seems to just bootloop. Any time i've flashed back to stock firmware i had go into recovery and do a factory wipe, and the phone booted right up. But when i replaced the screen in my phone, i tore the volume ribbon cable. So no easy way into recovery
If you change csc then flash and modem and pda like jb leaked

Partitioning? Maybe you screwed up something when you did that... besides after flashing stock you don't need to clear cache. It must boot properly because flashing stock ROM will clear your cache anyways...

[Q] How to boot to recovery mode when home button is broken

Hello everyone! Here is my problem.
The home button of my gs2 is broken. I knew that some rom have the function that rebooting into recovery mode when power on.
But somehow, I need to boot into recovery mode when power off.
In addition, I've got a item which can help me get into odin mode when power off. The item in Chinese we call it "Wa mei shen qi"~
I would like to know is it able for me to boot into recovery mode with this? Or any other possible way for gs2 from power off state.
Thanks!

The "Item" you are talking about could be a USB Jig? As you already said: it will take you into download mode but not recovery mode.
I don't know what you mean to say by

Can you tell us why?
For a running device with USB debugging enabled you could run adb reboot recovery to boot into recovery mode. However this is for a running device, not for a device that is powered off.
I don't either fully understand what you're meaning by this.
But as far as i know the only way to access CWM when power off is Power+Home+VolUp, but then ofcourse i'm not a pro at this...yet there could be another way to access Recovery while power off which i haven't found out about.
I don't understand also why you must access Recovery while power off, in your situation (with the home butten broken) it would be easier to get ROM Manager. It has an option to reboot into Recovery mode. Or if you rooted with CF-Kernel, it come with a CWM app that let's you choose if you want to reboot normally, reboot into download mode or reboot into Recovery mode.
and if i may ask, what do you mean by Odin mode? Is it download mode?

Thanks for your informations.
The reason is that I flash a rom in Odin mode, but after that I can't get powered on, it always remains in the starting animation.
I've been in this situation many times, for every time, a wipe data / factory reset in recovery mode will fix the problem. However the problem arises, for this time, my home button is broken.
And I've tried a lot of other roms from Odin mode, it still remains in the starting animation. So I really need a wipe in recovery mode badly.
The "item" may be the same with USB jig from your description.

Yes, for Odin mode, I mean the download mode.
The reason that I need to boot into recovery mode is given in #4. And thanks for your information , but I really need to boot into recovery mode to do a wipe data / factory reset to save my gs2.
boot into recovery/download mode
..so u have a bootloop & ur home-btn is broken..
am i right?
the jig would bring you to dowload mode
install via odin ur rom with repartition..
u will need a 3-parted rom
that should solve your problem..cause i think theres no way to come into the recovery mode if u have a bootloop
[email protected] said:
u can use an app to boot into recovery/download mode
just look at the marketplace which you prefer
- i use stweaks from sieya kernel
the jig would reset the counter and bring you to dowload mode

He can't boot, so that is no option for him unfortunately.
I believe adb can be used when the animation starts, haven't checked it. If so, simply do adb reboot recovery.

Yes, adb can be used during boot, but only if USB debugging was enabled before.

Umm~This may work if adb.exe can get connected with my phone in booting animation. I'll try it later.
You must press on button for a few seconds then click on reboot then take recovery.

you can also use an app called [ Anreboot.apk ] but you must have a root permission ok

I've tried this with adb tool in andriod development SDK.
However during the booting animation, even if Windows Device Manager detect Android ADB Interface, "adb devices" shows no adb connections.
Maybe the only way for me is finding a rom with auto wipe after flashing it by ODIN.
The only way you can get this fixed is get your phone-home button fixed in a samsung repair center ma8..
There's no other way you can go to recovery mode without the home button use...you can use th usb jig only to go into download mode!. Hope this helps.

He is simply not able to boot the device so how do you expect him to go into recovery with a broken home button?

[Q] Help needed, stuck at boot

Hi,
I could really need some help.
What happend, i prepared to go from HairyBean to CM11 downloaded bootloader files roms, ...
Via the Power Menu i could not reboot into recovery so I tried via GooManager.
After this:
The Prime gets stuck hat the boot screen ( The Device is unlocked + Asus Logo )
If i reboot the device with both Vol Down + Vol Up pressed the screen stay dark but i get an APX Device ( via USB)
I red through some threads about wheelie blobs and ?? but could sort things out.
Any help is highly welcome !
Br,
Jörg
Hi,
Results so far
- can not boot to recovery
- can not boot to fastboot
- can not boot to android os
- can boot to apx (with screen dark)
which is not of any use because i do not have to blob files ( and i believe it is not possible to create them with then bootloader which was installed)
last thing it did:
boot to recovery via goomanager
so i thing this caused the brick
Br,

Booting into recovery using "adb reboot recovery" might have bricked my device.

Booting into recovery using "adb reboot recovery" might have bricked my device.
Hello. I am currently using, or, well, was using an Xperia XA1 Plus, running Android 8. Tried to get it rooted recently. However, I always had trouble booting into recovery mode. I had bootloader unlocked, went into fastboot and installed the recovery.img, but whether I held Vol Up or Vol Down + Power, nothing happened; the device just kept rebooting into normal Android. Then I went on the internet and looked around, and found out about "adb reboot recovery". And this is where I ran into the problem. After pushing the command, the device now doesn't seem capable of booting anymore. Any combination of buttons, whether Vol Up or Vol Down + Power wouldn't do anything.
Is this considered a hard brick? Is there any way to save my phone? Much appreciated.
Try to flash recovery image, three times in a row, without disconnecting and rebooting.
Than try to boot to recovery

Hey, thanks for the answer.
Unfortunately, I couldn't boot into fastboot mode. However, thanks to your suggestion, I found out that flashmode was still available, and managed to flash the firmware again! The device is back!
