TF201 stuck on ASUS logo [solved thanks to NVFLash!] - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime
top left corner of the screen says "The Device is Unlocked", in the middle ASUS logo, bottom right "powered by nvidia tegra" will not boot, or boot into the bootloader, i do have nvflash enabled but not sure what i need to do to get it unstuck.
Update:
I ran c:\...\wheelie --blob blob.bin
Then c:\...\nvflash --resume --go
booted into TWRP
factory reset in TWRP, wipe cache, and dalvik
Reboot system
ROM seems to be loading
Jelly Bean Setup started!
Thank you ecatsab!

Well, we're in the same boat, so this means your device is hard bricked, just like mine, and you can't do anything about it, so you will have to rma it to Asus, if they let you. :/
but the only difference is you are in the life raft since you have nvflash enabled, so there is probably a fix so just search around nvflash unbricking threads. GL!

To the both of you, I was in this same situation last week and thought my device was "hard bricked". If you are at least getting the ASUS screen, EVEN IF it says "This device is unlocked", AND you have performed the NVFLASH procedures correctly, you are not hosed.

What were you doing when you got to this point? You are no where near hard bricked by the way, or anything else called brick.

I am sure they will fix just about anything for $$
i did similar terrible thing and after 2 days in official asus service center i god answer:
"mainboard failure. 250eur for replacement."
that is most likely will going to happen if you brick tf201. i dont have that money at the moment and it will collect dust on my shelve.
damn...
Bricked mine too.
Installed JB JRO03C 10.4.2.15 (US) Stock Deodexed
Installed goomanager, and attempted to flash openrecovery script.
Prime boots, and starts to flash recovery - to end up frosen on Asus logo.
I can start APX mode it seems (black screen, and I get Asus Transformer Prime APX Interface in computers devicemanager when i connect it)
I dont have nvFlash...
Fastboot only say: Waiting for device.....
Wheelie get some connection it seems, but I dont have the blob...
Hopefully someone will sort this out.

I got the same problem
I managed to unlock (UnLock_Device_App_V6) and root my TF201. then I installed GooManager to installed a recovery which I successfully did.
Then I boot into recovery and installed Jelly bean (us-tf201-jro03c-10.4.2.15-stock-deodexed) and superuser (Superuser-3.2-arm-signed)
it all went well and working great.
until I wanted to install a patch for GPS (tf201-GPSTweaks). I couldn't get into recovery so I installed GooManager again and tried to reinstall recovery again.. the phone reboot and stocked in asus logo..
I can only get into APX mode

bricked??!!
i have a gtab and it is giving me a headache already trying to figure out how to fix it. I have search high andd low for a solution but havent quite found one, yet. This is my brother-in-laws gtab. For some reason he tried to flash to a different rom and update the tablet. Right now, the tablet won't boot. It gets stuck on the 3 bird screen. If i try to go into recovery, i still get the 3 birds with the "detected a recovery key pressed." What i have done...well since i can get into apx mode, the first thing i did was flash nvflash 1.1, that should clear things up, then i pushed recovery. But that didn't work, i am still at the same place i started. So i flashed nvflash 1.2, still didn't work. I re-downloaded the files again from different sources and tried it again, and again, and again. I have tried it atleast 6 times but all with the same outcome. I am still stuck at the 3 birds. I tried holding the + while in nvflash to boot into recovery but that didn't work either. I am fresh out of ideas. Everything i read tells me to wipe cache/data, but i can't even get into CW. And nvflash isn't working for me either. I am still on the same screen, this darn gtab is giving me the bird three times over. so right now i am going to allow the battery to drain then try again. unless anyone can suggest anything that will give me some hope....or even to tell me that i have bricked the "unbrickable." oh and everytime i do the nvflash the device does not reboot itself...it stays stuck on the "entering nvflash recovery mode / nv3p server"
I had a similar issue with my gtab except I keptrebooting into apx mode. I then downloaded some nvflash from roebert that said deprecated not use (in a dropbox) and flashed that, my gtab came back to life there... funny thing is that I'm pretty sure I ended up on 1.0, luckily I was able to flash came from that and it's all been good from there. I would say give that a try, then again I'm relatively proud to say I'm a n00b at Modding these things so tread carefully. PS : as unbrickable as the gtab might or might not be it can (and to me it is) quite frustrating ; so I feel your pain

You could install a copy of Ubuntu and try nvflash with that. That would eliminate any possible driver issues since Ubuntu does not require drivers for apx mode. From the error you posted earlier "entering nvflash recovery mode / nv3p server" it would appear nvflash is not actually flashing anything. Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

Click to collapse Thanks for the comment. I agree about Ubuntu. I use it exclusively - have for a couple years. I did all my testing and attempts with it. I finally decided to build a WinXP machine and I am now trying to use it. You are correct about NVFlash not saving anything to the device. There is no bootloader and although all of the NVFlash commands are "successful" it just does not save. When I try to use the external SDCard to run recovery, the GTab does not seem to recognize it. It acts just as if there was not a recovery file on the card. One thing that seems to give me some hope. I am seeing the USB connection (while not in APX mode) with the Windows Machine. So, I will install ADB and see if I can grab control that way. But ADB is such a bugger with Windows.
[Q] Trying to unbrick LG optimus V, bootloader not working
This thread is referring to this method of unbricking: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226470 I am having the same issue from the OP. However, when I get to step 3-5 where I use "adb reboot bootloader", it doesn't bring me to the bootloader (blue screen). At first when I tried to time it right, I got "device not found". However, as I tried more often, the command seems to go through as it returns blank, but the only thing that happens is the phone reboots and displays the "factory reset...formatting data...formatting cache...do not remove batttery...rebooting" again. I've tried about 20 times now and, instead of bringing me to the bootloader screen, it keeps rebooting everytime I use "adb reboot bootloader. I would appreciate any help I can get. I started a new thread because I cannot reply to the original thread as I do not have 10+ posts yet
I was thinking maybe I can't boot into bootloader since it cant even boot into recovery? Is that possible?
I'm in the exact same boat as the OP.

[Q] Possible Brick
Hi! I have an Asus EeePad Transformer Prime TF201, on stock ICS, unlocked via ASUS official method. I tried to flash CWM in order to get CyanogenMod, fastboot flash all went OK, no errors, i rebooted the tablet into O/S then after several tries to get into CWM Recovery( normal volume-down + power, adb reboot recovery) all led to a freeze in the splash-screen or bootloader menu. Then i tried to do a full wipe from the bootloader menu, the tablet hanged again trying to boot recovery image. After about 30 minutes of wait, i hard-rebooted it. This final step led to a strange brick: the tablet is stuck with Asus logo in the center, "Powered by Nvidia Tegra" in the down-right corner and "The Device is Unlocked" in the top left corner. I tried to get to fastboot but it doesn't respond to the normal volume-down + power, it actually reboots but the bootloader menu doesn't come up. Is there any solution for my problem? Your help is greatly appreciated

If there's no recovery, no adb/fastboot, and you're in a boot loop or it won't boot at all then I'm pretty sure this is a brick. Check the dev forum for the tf201 and look at the brick thread. If it's recoverable then that thread will tell you how to do it
