Can you get to RCK, or fastboot? if you can only get to APX, then you are hard bricked and must replace the MB to move forward. Do some searching there is plenty of info her on it all.

I understand what you see but where can you go?
Vol down + Power should get you to RCK, recovery, fastboot, etc...
Vol down - Power should get you to APX
If you can not Vol down + Power to get into recovery, you are hard bricked and your only choice as of right now is to replace the Mother Board.

Hi all,
My Transformer Prime will not boot past the initial Asus screen. It's remains stuck on this screen but when I hold power down, the device reboots. I am not able to get into recovery using power and vol down, then vol up. I cant turn the device off, it reboots every time. When I try to hold vol down while rebooting, the normal white writing doesn't appear, it just continues in the same loop at the Asus screen. I dont even get as far as the EeePad splash screen. I'm at a loss for what to try. I can get into recovery or fastboot and it wont connet to the pc. Am I screwed? All of the advice I can find needs recovery etc. The problem started when I tried to wipe the device. Could it have deleted the recovery image, rom etc? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

First, this belongs in q&a or general. Your problems have nothing to do with development.
Secondly, I posted a link a while back in the EOS3 ROM thread in reference to recovering from the exact scenario . The post includes which tools, drivers, and the process in detail on how I recovered down to the command for fast boot flashing the recovery ( which had a specific value for the device ).
EDIT:
Here is my detailed post. Try that and see if fastboot works for you. I was literally in the exact same boat not terribly long ago.

Aso I forgot to ask.... were you already on a JB boot loader? If you were on ICS, make sure you download the ICS blob for twrp from the link and not the JB blob. That's crucial because if you flash the wrong recovery, you are screwed lol.

He likely wiped all of his partitions ( including recovery ) like I did by accident. Fast boot was a pain in the arse for me until I used the -i command along with the new drivers. Hopefully my post resolved his issue.

Thank you for your response so far and apologies for putting the thread in the wrong section. The instructions given were great, only I am unable to get into fastboot. When I try and turn on the device holding vol down, it just boots normally. It doesn't give me the white writing and options I had before. I can't seem to turn the device off either. When I hold the power button it reboots, but doesn't shut down. What can I try to get into fast boot?
Thanks

Did you do the nvflash process at any time and keep the blob files?
If you didn't and you cannot get to fastboot then I'm afraid that you are hard bricked

No I didnt do the Nvflash. I unlocked and rooted a while ago, before nvflash was around and havent looked back since. Has anyone ever heard of fastboot being deleted? Ive always been able to get into it.

Try holding the down and power button while its on to force shut down, then keep holding volume down as it reboots?
Also, what were you in the process of doing right before the issues began? Did you install something with a different bootloader? You could have wiped bootloader which means you are hosed . . . ..

I've tried holding the buttons down while it reboots but nothing happens. If I hold the vol up and vol down while pressing power, the device turns off completely.
The problem started when I tried a factory reset in CWM. It crashed after a few seconds and the device rebooted. Not there doesnt appear to be anything on the device. I havent heard of CWM doing this before.

Without fastboot and nvflash there is no hope for recovery except for calling asus and requesting an RMA.
It sounds like your device has the boot to recovery flag, but with a broken recovery, something which the bootloader has no exit path from.

Without a bootloader you will not get any output from the device, the bootloader is what displays the asus splash screen. Without it the device would just drop into apx mode.

This is probably a silly question but if I send it back to asus for rma should I just claim complete ignorance as to how this happened? Or should I come clean? Has anyone done a rma before? Any idea of time scales or cost etc? Thanks

Do not lie but don't tell the whole truth if you know what I mean
Don't go into too much info and get straight to the point, also don't show any technical knowledge.
"It doesn't turn on any more, it just flashes on a screen showing Asus".
"It wont turn off"
If you are lucky and they just look at it and not check what has happened they might just switch motherboard rather than messing with it.
Also try to run the battery out first. Harder to check
You shouldn't be covered at all because you agreed to that when you unlocked, but you might get lucky while staying truthful
p.s. I find my grandmother can get away with it more than me

Usually booting into recovery involves first turning off the device, then powering on the device while holding a combination of keys to boot into recovery mode. While this key combination is different for each device the most common combination is holding the volume up+power button simultaneously. Once in recovery use the volume up and volume down button to navigate menu selection and power button to select. Navigate to the "factory reset" option and select it, once it finishes select the "reboot system" option, and you should have your tablet reset.

Hello, I have a Transformer Prime that only shows the logo of asus and in the upper left shows "the device is unlocked." I could only enter the tablet in APX mode but I dont have backups of nvflash to operate wheelie.
I have tried to put the tablet in ADB mode (power button and volume -) but the tablet just restarts and is not detected by the computer.
is there any way to recover the tablet or should I get the idea that I have to buy the motherboard. a friend gave it to me in this state and is like new and I would not throw it just for that.
Thanks and sorry for my bad English.

Keep holding volume down and power down button. After 10 seconds the prime will restart, keep holding both of them down for another 10 seconds, if you get to a screen with 4 icons on it (one of them is fastboot) then we can rescue it. If it just keeps restarting and you cannot get to them icons then you have hard bricked your device without nvflash backups.
What did you do to get it to this in the first place mate?

hello, as you report the tablet was a gift from a friend who had gathering dust. I decided to check it when I found this problem. and such as I read information on the forums asked if had tried to do something with it and just told me to try to free it with the application of asus. I have no more information about it and asked if he had backup of SD but I had the tablet had already formatted for use on another tablet.

Hey
A friend got his Transformer bricked.. And its pretty well bricked im afraid, it can only show me the splash screen with the "unrecoverable bootloader error 0x0000004"
Is there any hope at all to fix this ? Pluging the device into my PC gives me nothing .. I can however if i hold all buttons down (volume up, volume down, and the power button) sometimes get the pc to see it but it fails to install any drivers.. Sometimes its listed as an APX device or sometimes Unknwon device..
Help !

APX mode (which you get to by holding down the power button and volume up until it restarts and goes black screen) is useless to you if you do not have nvflash backup files (which I'm guessing you don't).
Do you get anything if you hold down power button and volume down for 10 seconds until the machine restarts and then keep holding them for another few seconds?
If you do not get to the bootloader menu with icons doing the above then there isn't really much you can do with it except replace the motherboard.

Yes it does. I mentioned the penguin specifically:
Seeing the penguin is normal. I have managed to fix the issues I have and I am running a custom ROM by Cuoco92, all thanks to the help I got from @simidisc.
I will assume that you have installed all appropriate USB drivers.
1. Visit http://bit.ly/1Q6irPH and download SEZIONE FIRMWARE and SEZIONE RECOVERY. Don't worry about this being in Italian - I don't speak Italian and managed no problem.
2. Copy the zip file from Sezione Firmware to your phone.
3. Unzip the the recovery file on your computer and connect your phone to your computer.
4. After unzipping TWRP, run "Install Over Fastboot".
5. Your phone will reboot and you will see THE PENGUIN. Just press VOLUME UP + POWER at the same time and your phone will reboot to TWRP.
6. You should now be able to flash the ROM, making sure to wipe cache, dalvik etc.

I am having the same problem.
The penguin comes on then no matter what I do, it either just reboots (if I keep holding power down) and continues to do this for ever, or boots into the LeEco recovery, if I press volume up and power, or just boots into EUI rom if I do nothing.
Any suggestions?
