[Q] Help with brick - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I recently tried to flash energy rom via CWM. Everything seemed to work fine. Booted up to asus screen and stopped. Now will not boot past that. Here is what has been done so far:
rooted and unlocked
no nvflash
no recovery backup created
I used WSG unbricker and lost recovery mode and made no headway
I can boot to fastboot
Tried flashing multiple recovery images and roms and latest firmware blob from asus
I have wiped data
Maybe I am doing something wrong in fastboot or the order. Maybe I have to wipe or partition first. Maybe I tried flashing JB bootloader on ICS. I do not not know my current bootloader either. Please tell me there is a solution. I feel that since I have fastboot there is hope. Also I have never posted before, but I feel that I have read most threads will no avail so I need direction. Help would be greatly appreciated.

When you get to the screen where fastboot icon is, up the top left there is a line with bootloader written in it. At the end of that line is a number starting with 9 or 10. 9 is ICS bootloader and 10 is JB bootloader.
Give me that number and we can go from there.

I actually had read that in a previous thread. Mine does not say anything in the top of the screen.

You're saying when you hold down the power button and volume down together for about 5-10 seconds and you get to the screen with icons on it (wipe,fastboot etc) you have no writing in the top left at all ?

All it says is "os will cold boot in 10 secs if selected mode is not confirmed" wipe data or fastboot. It used to say some stuff until I used wsg unlocker. That is where I had the option of recovery.

And just to be clear. The OS does not cold boot after 10 secs. All it does is just confirm wichever option is highlighted.

Ok mate, when the tablet first come on where is the tegra logo?

I do remember that my firmware before trying energy rom was 4.x.28 I just cannot remember what the middle number was. but definitely ended in 28 if that helps.

[Q] I think it's bricked...

Okay so I don't know what to do. I was trying to upgrade to one of these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000 (I don't know which) via ClockWork and everything seemed to go smooth, atleast until it booted up. Now, I'm stuck in an endless bootloop of the boot logo ->
"Detect a recovery command
Erasing MSC
Booting recovery kernel image"
What I've tried:
Nvflash: It doesn't recognise it long enough for it to work
Hard reset: Didn't help at all. Still the same bootloop.
If anyone could help I'm open to any suggestions at this point. Oh, and sorry if I missed the fix (If there is one.)
Thanks,
Labsownyou
That thread is for stock recovery images...so, out of the box firmwares at different points in time.
What were you running before you tried to flash one of these?

To be honest I don't know. It's been like this for like, 2 months. I just haven't had the time to do anything about it. I read somewhere that something like this has happened before, but not to this extreme. Something about it not liking being flashed through Clockwork or something.
Thanks for the reply.

It specifically says not to load them through cwm. Can you get into recovery by holding down volume+ when you reboot?
If you can get to recovery (cwm) then flash this to clear all the bad data out.

Then bownload and flash this. You will be happy with it.

Optimus V Brick!?! HELP!

So I went to flash to my cell using romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Install_from_Stock_Optimus. I got to step 15, and I realized I forgot to place the ROM in my sd card so I restarted the cellphone so I could place the ROM in my sd card, go to reboot to repeat the process and I get a screen that goes:
Fastboot mode started

Can someone post a link to a recovery file for my phone? You guys are the best.
I followed the above guide, and used the ROM here prepaidandroid.org/index.php?title=How_to_restore_your_Optimus_V_to_almost_original_condition
It reboots, and the same blue screen is up
My brother flashed the wrong recovery, I tried using the tutorial to fix it using fastboot.exe from windows, but it won't work as it can't find the device. windows sees an android device and I installed the drivers from lg, but it refuses to enumerate in adb shell, so I can't connect to it, any ideas?
okay after fiddleing with it a bit, I got the origional recovery mode restored on it, and when I boot into recovery and plug in usb adb can see the device, I have a stock froyo rom how do I restore from here, or can I reflash clockwork from here?

go to this page
this only works if you have some sort of custome recovery, My brother had the wrong one for the optimus v (clockworkmod 3.2.0.0) and it wouldn't install any rom.
I just played around with this page until I got the stock bootloader/recovery back, however I'm not sure if this is what we want, you may want to try flashing one of the custom recoveries listed on the site, now that I have the stock I can re-flash anything.

you need to get into a custom recovery, optimus v press back, volume up and power at the same time to boot into a recovery, if you don't have a recovery at all there maybe an issue. so try and boot into a recovery and let me know what you have.

if you can't get into any recovery your device maybe permintally bricked, but don't take what I say as gospel I'm new at this as well, I'm still looking up more info, in the mean time you need to figure out how to get into recovery, google for key combos, also when using a key combo to get into recovery make sure power is the last button you press in the combo, hold down the others then power (while still holding the other buttons) and release as soon as you see the lg logo, it should go away quickly and after a few seconds of black you'll see the recovery, if the lg logo stays up for a while it's trying to normal boot.

I think if I can get adp to recognize this device I can fix it. Fastboot recognizes this, but adp doesn't. Is there a special adp driver maybe lol?
Got a little bit of progress....did a full system flash using fastbootroot and NVM OMG its fully booted! wow never thought I'd see the homescreen again...now to try to flash it again hahahaha
Now what verison of recovery and rom should I be looking at?

if you want to get aospCMod on your phone, follow this tutorial, this is what I did for my phone works great.
Now my question to you is how did you use fast boot root tool to get back to home screen because I'm still stuck at recovery
okay I finally managed to fix it, I figured out how to use fast boot root and got a custom recovery, from there I could flash other recoveries, which was importaint because even though I could install any rom I wanted it was stuck in a boot loop where it would keep booting into recovery, So i flashed Xionia_CWMA_12518.4_VM_Recovery.zip from here and under advanced it has an option to fix the boot loop, then from there I could flash a rom and it's fixed.
Lot of work fixin' my first bricked phone, but I learned alot.

Problems Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery

Maybe somebody can help me with this. I went through all the steps to unlock the bootloader and root the phone using Lokifish Marz guide(very helpful by the way). and now when you boot the phone up in the top left of the screen is the word unlocked.
However, when I go through the process of moto-fastboot. it acts like it's working just fine,erase recovery...OK, Sending Recovery.... OKAY, writing Recovery.... OK. but when I go to boot into recovery (power+volume down, scroll down to Android recovery and hit volume up) I get the Triangle with a !.
To make matters even more confusing, is I have got it to boot up to CWM. I did a full back up on internal, including web top and I thought I was good. I had to run to the grocery store so I booted my phone back up for the time being and went and did my errands, came back and booted into recovery(with the above way.) and bam! triangle, !, android guy.
I've done this a couple times. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong however I can't seem to find anybody else that has had the same problem. I've held of on trying to flash a different rom, so I'm still running stock rooted.
I'm running Android Ver. 2.3.4 Build 198_6 and I've tried flashing a coule diffent versions of recovery3 including the one that came with Root-Unlock-Recover.
Anybody have any ideas?
I also have the same problem with my motorola photon. i went thru the steps
to unlock the bootloader it said it was unlocked i checked to make sure i was rooted with root check and it said i was. but when i power the phone on and boot i can see android recovery but when i select it the menu is not there just
a triangle and the android symbal, then i have to pull the battery to restart
it does and the phone seems to be working ok.
Well it make me feel better that im not the only one. What tools did you use to unlock your boot loader?
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
What version of stock did you guys start with? I think there was an USCC OTA that IIRC locked up the boot loader on the Electrify.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Started with Android Ver. 2.3.4 Build 198_6 , its the same one that's on there right now. and it's saying my boot loader is unlocked, I actually went through the fastboot unlock process again to check and it said it was already unlocked. Although I just tried flashing twrp recovery and the same thing happened, so it seems to be behaving like it flash's the new recovery but it doesn't.
Strangely though, I've been able to get into Clockwork Mod once or twice, but as soon as I reboot, and to go to recovery it takes me to triangle !, is that just stock recovery/bootloader? So basically CWM is a one time use then back to fast-boot to try again and again.
maybe I should look into re-locking and just going with a boot-strap?
So with some more Tinkering it seems I can get to ClockWorkMod so long as I don't reboot my phone all the way.
if I flash clockwork mod. pull the battery and boot into CWM it works fine, but if I fastboot reboot all the way it goes back to stock recovery. I'm beginning to think the boot loader isn't really unlocked even though it says it is.
Anybody else heard of this?

Urgently need help. Would appreciate it very much.

Dear all,
Here is the situation. I decided to root my evo 3d gsm (hboot 1.5++) today, and all went well until I flashed a rom (virtuous). Now whenever I boot on the phone, it shows me this "V" logo and loads for more than 10minutes or so. I can go into my bootloader, but when I attempt to do anything from my clockworkmod recovery, when I press the power button to select different options, I get blank menus and I can attempt nothing. I am an unexperienced user, and can anyone out there who is experience render some assistance? I am at my wits end...
Thanks
Well I'm not too familier with the gsm version... the "V", is that part of the boot animation? and does it just loop over and over? maybe try reflashing clockworkmod and re wipe and install?

The "V" is the part of the boot animation. And the "V" just glows again and again, yeah so i guess it loops. Why I am so worried is because I saw a window of my HTC sense booting to life earlier on, but I saw the words "Unfortunately... has... crashed..." but it was very brief, and after which the animation began again. Is it because I waited for too short a period of time? (around 15 minutes or so) or because it really boot looped? And how do I reflash clockwordmod when I can't access my phone and sd card? Will appreciate your kind help...
I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes for something too boot, and it should really never take longer than that. Can you tell me the steps you took to flash the rom(not to root it). and could you give some more info about your phone? are you s-on or s-off? And what do you mean by blank menus in clockwork mod? Do you know how to boot into your hboot menu? from there you can boot to fastboot and install the recovery from your pc. connect your phone to the pc while in fastboot mode and get your recovery.img file and type the following command from the command line:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img

Ok, here is the infomation. I live in Singapore, which is a part of Southeast Asia, my phone is the GSM version with HBoot 1.530007(i cant remember the decimal placing).
I firstly used HTCDEV to unlock my bootloader, which went well, then I went to evohacks to get the conventional rooting method, which went well too. And it all came when I was careless, and I accidentally forgot to wipe the data and cache of my evo before i flashed the rom. And now it gets stuck in the "V" logo loading phase. If the hboot menu is the menu where I have to press the powerbutton and the volume down button then yes. I can also get into my recovery, but the problem is that it shows a blank menu in (clockwordmod specifically), thus rendering whatever me helpless. i have downloaded the PG86IMG.zip and Im waiting for it to finish. So how do I go about solving this matter? This phone is my only asset and I really want to save it...
Blank menu as in for example when I click "Reboot", or "Factory Reset" or perhaps "Restore" in the CWD Recovery, it just shows me a blank menu with the CWD logo in the background, with no options or drop down words or whatsoever. And the sad thing is that I did not make any recoveries at all.... So I plucked my sd card out, and now im waiting to finish downloading the PG86IMG.zip to put on my sd and into my phone, and flash it to revert it back to stock and stuff..... I hope this works
Ok, well as long as you can get to either hboot or recovery you'll be ok. I would recommend flashing 4ext recovery, as it has never failed me and seems to help others. here is the link to it. Download that and pull the recovery.img out and flash that from your pc with the command I gave above. It sounds like you are either pushing the wrong button in the recovery or it might just be messing up for some reason. Is it the touchscreen version of clockworkmod?

The recovery is the free version, so it shouldn't be the touch one. May I ask, what do you mean by recovery.img? I emptied my SD card so that I can put the PG86IMG.zip into it later. Any more specific steps you can give? Sorry but Im really a newb in the android world

The recovery.img is the image that the phone flashes to install the recovery. If you look in the zip I posted in the link you'll see that file in there. the one I posted is the 4ext touch recovery. you can manually flash that file to your phone in case you can't get it to boot(like your case). I would suggest trying the 4ext recovery I linked, or maybe try to boot to recovery again and see if its touch based. Were the menus working when you flashed the virtuous rom, and then it stopped working?
OH stupid me. Whoops. Actually I CAN navigate. Ive been pressing the wrong button all this while. I pressed the power instead of the camera, which is the select button. Whoops. seems like CMD was working after all. sorry...
ok but still, can I just attempt to install the RUU file I downloaded in the CWD menu? Will it work? Will my phone be reverted back to its original unrooted state? I saw someone say it could...
There is something bugging me though. My SD card is now completely empty. Will it have any negative effects on what i do?
I thought something like that was happening, glad you got it sorted. Try to wipe everything and reinstall your virtious rom again first. yes the PG86IMG.zip will return you back to complete stock, recovery and all. So if you do that you might have to re-root all over again.

So theoretically flashing the ROM shouldn't take more than... around 15 minutes?
correct
Its now 10 minutes and so far my phone had made 2 major vibrations. So if this doesn't work, can i just wipe all the data again, put the PG86IMG.zip in my phone, go to recovery to install it, and then I just press reboot right?

Sometimes sense roms can take a bit, but if its vibrating than it should be working. if not just put the PG86IMG.zip on the root of your sdcard and boot into hboot and let it do its thing. no need to wipe data for that.

[Q] Missing System Directory

My system directory seems to be missing. I've installed teamwin Recovery but am unable to mount the system drive. When I install the latest Cyanogen Mod nightly it appears to install but won't boot. All I've got is Recovery and Fastboot. Help!

Here is the whole sequence of events...
1) I was on complete stock updated to the latest Asus OTA
2) I used the Asus unlock tool to unlock the bootloader
3) I wanted to gain root access so I tried the freshroot method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929189. This didn't work and it made my system directory not be found via fastboot.
4) I attempted to load CW Recovery 5.8.3.4 for the TF201 but it wouldn't open so I went with TWRP 2.3.1.0 (both were loaded via fastboot)
5) Once TWRP was working I flashed stock Asus version 10.4.2.17(US) and was able to boot into the welcome screen
6) I still wanted root and I noticed that my recovery image was no longer loading so I attempted to once again push CW Recovery via fastboot.
7) At this point the tablet turns on to the Asus splash screen and in the top left says "The Device is Unlocked". Holding Power + Volume Down lands me in the same spot.
Thank you again for the help!

I really have a bad feeling about this mate. The version you mentioned earlier came out at the end of may. Jellybean didn't come out until July. I don't think they released a version since then that supports the Jellybean bootloader and if you flash an ICS recovery onto a Jellybean bootloader you will hard brick your device.
If you cannot access the icons by holding down power and volume down for about 5 seconds while you are powered off then I am afraid it is hard bricked and will have to be returned to asus and have motherboard replaced.
I know it's no conciliation but there are posts everywhere saying not to use CWM on prime

Unfortunately there is at least one post out there saying it will work. On that note, know of anyone who needs some spare parts?
