Stuck at Asus splash screen, possible brick - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I was on rooted stock jellybean with jellybean bootloader and tried to flag twrp recovery with terminal emulator way that they describe in their page but didn't recommend. Anyways I've done it like that every time a new version of twrp comes out, anyways now I restart and it gets stuck at first screen where nvidia logo is in bottom right and device is unlocked in top left.
It will not go into fastboot or recovery, I did do the nvflash thing when I was on ics and have all my back up files for nvflash and my computer is picking it up in nvflash mode, if someone would please help me get this thing up and running iv would greatly appreciate it, maybe even donate, I just don't know the steps or nvflash commands to get it right. Thanks in advance.

Im new, having trouble flashing recovery

trying to flash clockwork recovery using the What you need to know about the Dell Streak PDF. Got into fastboot on the streak, got the C:\streak part fine but when I type fastboot it says "fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external device" I changed the fastboot-windows to fastboot but it gives me that error code mentioned above. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK. Cool, I just got clockwork installed using these directions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754563 but when I go to make a backup or flash I just get a blank screen with the backlight on and the capacitive buttons will flash every so often. Any ideas? Im new at this. On my old CDMA Hero rommanager took care of all this.
I recommend that you use StreakMod recovery rather than CWM. It is customized for the Streak. There are some useful links in my signature.
You may need to press the power button after selecting the second option on the first screen to get to the rest of the CWM options.
Presssing the power button returns it to the clockwork menu. I have the streakmod recovery unzipped but haven't quite figured out how to flash it. This is my first time doing anything with fastbootn honestly I only got this streak to try to learn more of the fun side of android. I have a nexus s and a xoom wifi but since they're both running current versions I just wanted something to tinker with.

You will need to flash streakmodrecovery over clockwork.
Some steps i posted elsewhere http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15434274&postcount=36
OK guys, you're to kind. Ill follow the directions above tonight and let you know how I done. I appreciate the help more than you guys could ever realize. I can only hope to almost be as good at this as you are so I can share my knowledge one day!

Basically, you need to fastboot your phone then use the recovery flasher to flash the streakmodrecovery, let it reboot and you will have the streakmodrecovery installed. As usual, to access the recovery, just power up yr phone and hold the vol+ and vol- until the recovery screen appears. Cheers

Majorly Effed Up.. Need Help Please

Yesterday I was running Viper's ROM and it worked flawlessly. A friend added some ROM manager on my phone, and it's been screwed up ever since. I tried flashing to a new ROM, no realizing it was Clockwork recovery. I was able to get Scott ROM to somewhat boot but it restarts randomly.
Viper ROM says to make sure you don't use Clockwork recovery. How can I ensure that is no longer on my phone? Secondly, with S-ON can I get Armona or another recovery tool?
Help.. what can I do to get the phone back to normal?
Greatly appreciate any help to restore my phone back.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think you can flash amon ra through bootloader and reinstall ROM from there.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
get the RA 3.15 recovery image file. rename to recovery.img and move it to where fastboot is on your PC assuming you have the sdk/tools/drivers configured like you would for using adb. reboot to bootloader for fastboot-usb when your usb cord is plugged in. the command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotes and you'll be back in business

Fastboot flash this to get amonra recovery back. Make sure you WIPE before you set up your next rom for no issues
At work they shut off the ability to charge via USB. Found an alt source.
The phone now boots up, but randomly restarts.

Want to make sure have the steps right.
Have a macbook, does this need to be done on a pc?
In recovery mount USB.
Put the file on the root (not in a folder)
Get to the fastboot menu and execute.
Please correct
Not sure if you need it or not, but I have a zip file that contains AmonRa 3.15. You can install it as a PH98IMG in bootloader. It is what I use to re-install AmonRa when needed. Apparently, I do not have enough posts to attach it so PM me your e-mail address if you would like me to send it to you.
pmgreen, it looks like Roman and the guys above took good care of you already but if you're still having problems I would be glad to do a remote session and help you get it straightened out.
Unfortunately friends can wreak havoc on your phone with things like this, but we will make sure you get all fixed up.

CharliesTheMan, thanks for the offer I greatly appreciate it. Thought the battery issue was resolved, but now it doesn't want to turn back on
Friend meant well, but lesson learned.
Will definitely take you up on the generous offer if there isn't success.
I took the file from Roman but got the following error: main version is older update fail rezound
On a MAC I tried to fastboot using the recovery file, but getting an error "Waiting on device to respond"
Silly question, I used the MAC to root a Nexus 7 and used a different PC for the rezound
Do you need to use the same computer to ABD?
Good news, I'm up and running. Flashed SetMainVersionLOW.zip then the recovery from Roman.
When I go into recovery no longer see that hat.
Thanks so much for your help.. really appreciate it and hope I help out some time too
Glad to hear that you are back up and running!

[Q] Bricked Prime...Tried everything

I feel like i've read every thread and tried everything.. hope some one can help?
The Problem:
I had a semi working JB rom and i tried to flash a new rom due to lag and stutter from the one that was on it now I cannot boot past the EEE Pad (asus/nvidia) screen - just sits here with the text on the left corner "AndroidRoot 9.4.2.28r01
The Hope:
I can access CWM, fastboot, ADB etc :silly:
The Attempt:
Almost everything i can find, erasing through fastboot, cwm, installing different roms etc. I've tried flashing a new blob from the official asus download through fastboot but i get an error when putting it through....
Any one have ideas on what it might be, is there hope? or is this money down the drain?

I believe you tried to flash a JB rom without the JB boot loader. If you have nvflash enabled then that's you're only recovery option. Other than that it's dead. Asus can fix it for a fee.

He says he can access Cwm fastboot and adb so he is not dead.
I will help you when I am at my pc later.
Edit. Get me this info ready please. Power off prime. Hold down volume down and power. When the icons appear for fastboot etc look at the top left where the writing is and at the end is a long number. Does this number start with a 9 or a 10?
I am not talking about androidroot number but the one in the long line with bootloader in it.

It looks like I have the exact same problem but my number starts with a 10. I would be eternally grateful if someone could help. I have searched for hours and have had not luck ;(
---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------
How I did this...
I was running CM 10 with the jb bootloader and I figured I'd update before going on a trip.
I decided to try AndroWook but couldn't get it to boot. I couldn't get it to work or figure out why. When I recovered CM, no problem. So I decided to give it one more go and downloaded AndroWook 1.3 and installed as if I was updating the bootloader.
Been in ruins ever since ;(
I can get to fastboot and adb but can't boot into recovery! I tried flashing a new recovery through fastboot. I am either missing something or it is not working.
Thanks for anyone that can point me in a direction.

Just install the regular version of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34937936&postcount=6210 . put a Jellybean rom either Androwook 1.51 or nrgz latest from the developers thread on a micro sd card.

Problem with new TWRP version - need help

I have been running hariybean 2.31 for quite some time but saw some kitkat based roms are now available so I thought I would try on out. As a precursor, I had to upgrade my TWRP to the 2.6.3 version that supports KK. I did the upgrade using the terminal emulator method and it seems to have installed correctly but now, when I start recovery, it asks for a password to contiue. If you cancel out of it, then you do not have access to the partitions and I assume they are encrypted.
I cannot find a password listed anywhere, nor did i set one on my machine. I am rooted currently and unlocked. I also tried to downgrade TWRP back to the 2.5.0.0 version but i cant seem to do that either, it seems to instal, but when I go back into recovery, it is still the 2.6.3.0 version.
Can anybody help me? want to either get the password, disable the password (without loosing my data) or downgrade back to a version that will not request a password.
Detailed steps to accomplish any of the above would be greatly appriceiated!

I'm going to be honest with you, the reason I was interested is I made the bonehead mistake of not downgrading to 4.1 before attempting to flash the KK twrp. Looks like the link you sent fixed the recovery just fine without needing NVFlash (At least in my case) if only I knew how to actually develop roms better. I want a 4.4.2 Linaro AOSP ROM with ART optimization (Or Vanir) for the Prime on the 4.2 bootloader... that would be pretty awesome.

Thanks for the replies so far. I now have made things even worse by using wipe in TWRP and now the OS is gone I have tried using the fastboot -I 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob as suggested and it says it is writing it, but when it is done, it restarts into the same TWRP 2.6.3.0 version everytime. I have no data on the tablet that isn't already backed up (but I don't have NVflash) so I don't care how deep It needs to be formatted to get it back online again.
Any further suggestions or steps to take? I have ADB and Fastboot access but that seems to be all......
sheesh... all I wanted to do was try out KK

I finally got it back.
Did this list of commands:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\blob
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
and that allowed me to overwrite the TWRP 2.6.3.0 and thus unencrypt the storage finally and then I just reinstalled the Harirybean zip again.
Thanks so much for all the help!

I do know a bit around linux, I have been using Ubuntu for about 3 years but not super familiar with things. I know basic commands in terminal and I know how to Google really well haha. Any chance you could PM me a list of starter guides because I really am interested in doing new development for the Prime. I am not getting a tablet anytime soon... due to money concerns and the fact that I just like the transformer series.

I would advise not starting with a rom but starting with an app to get yourself used to using toolchains etc.
Take a look at compiling your own version of Gotham XBMC to get you started, the instructions on that are pretty good and straight forward.

Awesome I will get cracking on that over the weekend. I will see how that treats me and if it goes well I will let you know and see if I could be your padawan learner and hopefully build a vanilla Linaro AOSP Rom for the 4.2 bootloader some day.
The blob file helped a lot and I'm back with a working TWRP! Great work - thanks again!
But I'm kind of scared and confused right now, regarding KitKat ROMs. Do I really need NVFlash?
I guess the right road 2 kitkat would be:
1. downgrade my bootloader
2. install flatline & nvflash
3. install cw recovery?
4. install kitkat roms?
There is also KitKat TWRP - is this the right way?
Like I said - I'm super confused. ^^

Thanks for your help flumpster!

Did I really hardbrick my prime?

Hey guys,
I desperately need your help :/
It looks like that I hardbricked my tf201.
I guess I kinda messed up the wrong recoveries with wrong bootloaders.
And what I get now is that I can switch on my prime but have no chance to enter fastboot or recovery.
It does nothing when switching it on while holding down the Volume down key.
It only says bootloader unlocked on the left top corner and thats all. From there its stuck.
I looked up some tutorials for unbricking the tf201 but there is always one file missing which all the tutorials uses and that's the "blob.bin".
Should I have extracted that blob.bin from my device before unlocking it and rooting it? :/
I appreciate every help I can get.
Thanks

One thing i was really happy with is the blob.bin made with NVFlash about 2 years ago.
If you dont have that then i dont think you can get into APX mode.
Did you make a NVFlash backup or not?

If you can't get into either android, recovery or fastboot and you don't have nvflash backups then you are hard bricked sorry.
