[Q] I soft bricked my prime, need help please - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hi everyone,
I have read this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514088 ) but my situation doesnt match any of the brick states on the OP.
What I did:
1. I successfully unlocked the bootloader with no problems
2. I successfully flashed TWRP and achieved root using the method in the second post of this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2034691 ). I had to use this method because I was already on stock 4.1 firmware
3. I then booted into recovery, did a factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik cache, flashed a cm 10.1 zip and then tried to reboot. When I tried to reboot I got stuck on the splash screen.
The Current Situation:
Whenever I try to start the device I get stuck on the splash screen. I am still able to boot into both TWRP recovery mode and fastboot mode though.
Solution?:
I would greatly appreciate any help you are able to give me. I am hoping that since I can get into recovery and fastboot mode that I am not hard bricked?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Help with upgrading firmware through odin. Phone stuck on boot animation

Hi all,
I am trying to update my phone to a new firmware using odin. I am following the instructions in this thread. However after odin has done its thing, it displays "PASS!", my phone reboots but then hangs on the boot animation. I have left it for about 20 mins and tried reflashing the rom with no luck.
I have also tried another firmware, but its gets stuck in a half bootloop (repeating the boot animation)
Does anyone know what might be causing this and how I can fix it?
Thanks
Aaron
Boot to recovery and wipe cache see if that works, if it still bootloops you'll need to boot to recovery and do a factory reset.
I booted into recovery and wiped everything, and it works now.
Thanks

[Q] Stuck On Boot Loop!

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! I RECENTLY FLASHED THE 2012-09-08 07:33:31 NIGHTLY AND THEN GOT BOOT LOOPED! I WAS ON CWM 6.0.1.1 AND NOW IM ON 6.0.1.3. I TRIED:
1. Factory Reset
2. Re Flashing CM10
BUT NOTHING
PLEASE HELP ME SOON!
THANK YOU
Reflash a other ROM/return to stock and the bootloop should be gone. The problem is probably in the ROM itself so thats why factory reset doesnt fix anything.

[SOLVED] When going into recovery it quickly shows cwm then reboots phone

So... I got my HTC One today and it's been a very difficult experiance. I am quite a newbie when it comes to rooting and such but I managed to unlock my bootloader (with the exception that it shows TAMPERED at the top) then proceded to flash TWRP through fastboot. TWRP wouldn't mount /data, /sdcard, etc... it wouldn't work. A little bit of searching led me to flash CWM instead and that seemed to work.
In CWM I wiped data/factory reset, then flashed SuperSU, then flashed CleanROM, then flashed BulletKernel, and finally reboot. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop and when I go to my bootloader and try to enter recovery it reboots, shows the CWM logo then reboots my phone. I tried re-flashing CWM via fastboot to no avail.
TL;DR: Phone is in bootloop and won't even boot into recovery
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thank you!
EDIT: Had a feeling it was due to the fact I didn't clear cache/dalvik cache before rebooting. I erased my cache via fastboot and voila it booted into recovery!

Boot into bootloader. Then do fastboot erase cache. Then try rebooting. If you can get into recovery but not ROM, reflash the ROM. If you can't even get into recovery still, try reflashing recovery. Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. Then try getting into recovery and reflashing.

flash stock ICS Rom ftf with flashtool
Thanks for help
Thanks I managed to flash stock Gingerbread in the end.
In case anyone else has a similar problem here is a handy guide I found. (youtube.com/watch?v=hPPWRXcsz7g)
Where it says connect phone I found you need to connect it in fast boot (hold volume up button as you connect it) when the software is ready to flash un-plug phone then connect in flash mode (hold volume down button as you connect).

Have you tried flashing a stock ROM?
yes. but it is still in the loop.
Flashing in Odin was successful?
After flashing the stock ROM, did you perform a factory wipe before booting for the first time?
thats not possible. i can boot to the clockworkmod recovery but if i choose the option "wipe data/factory reset" the recovery will be closed and the smartphone boots again and open the recovery.
1, download mode and flash an official stock rom (one package) via odin. Make sure it is for your device specifically.
2, Boot to official stock recovery and wipe data/factory reset. If the phone reboots after this you need to be prepared to key combo to download mode BEFORE it boots android.
3, Flash the official stock rom again.
All remnants of any previous roms will be gone and you should have a booting phone.

It worked with the stock recovery. Now I was able to install cyanogenmod. Thank you very much!!!
