So my Prime is completely stock from an OS standpoint. Not rooted, just a handful of apps. I got the JB firmware notification this morning and I went ahead and kicked it off. Things seemed fine and the android with the blue progress bar popped up after a reboot. I left it alone and when I came back it was sitting on the ASUS boot screen. It has been on that boot screen ever since. I let it sit that way for over an hour and finally tried to power it off. I can power it off but it automatically tries to restart and gets stuck on the ASUS screen again. Tried holding the volume button down during power cycle and no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Try the following and see if it helps.
Hold volume down and power button and when the text appears in top left just wait 5 seconds. When the icons appear on your screen use volume down to go to the wipe icon then press volume up.
Not guaranteeing this will work but it has for others.
If still broken come back and post.
I have a unlocked TF201 and managed to install cyanogen mod 10 on it. Then one fine day, it encountered the "turning on wifi" error, and I tried to be clever and did a format /data on CWM.
Now I have a TF201 which can enter CWM (but can't install anything because it can't read SD card) and can get into Fastboot (since it's unlocked), but can't seem to be detected when i run fastboot from my win-pc.
Can anyone help? I tried installing various of the ADB fastboot drivers, in particular the universal naked driver from another thread, but still can't seem to work!
Can help? Pls?

adb and fastboot are different things.
adb you will be able to use while in CWM and fastboot you can use while in fastboot.
You need to be able to push a rom onto your device thru adb while in cwm.
There could be a few things wrong. It could be a faulty cable or it could be that your usb ports on the computer don't like it.
Have you tried using usb ports on the back of your computer and seeing if anything shows up in device manager when you are in cwm?
If not can you try it on another computers usb ports and see if anything shows up in device manager when you are in cwm?
Please come back with a bit more information when you have tried this. Once you can see the device in device manager you should be able to install the naked drivers and I can help you from there.
edit.. can you please also tell me what happens when you just try to let it boot.. where does it get stuck, what is on the screen?

Thanks for the response. vol down and power don't do me any good. It won't let me into the stock recovery mode. I've been down that road before and entered it successfully so I'm pretty certain I'm doing it right. It just loops me back to the ASUS screen.
Thanks again.

The only way to do it is to have it powered off. Then hold the volume down button first and while holding it start holding power button also.. Then don't let go of both buttons until it appears.
If that don't work I'm not sure what you have done sorry mate.

I guess I'm looking at an RMA then because it is powered off when I do the vol down + power. Still only get the splash screen. I wouldn't be upset if I was trying to load a custom ROM or something but all I did was let the blasted thing try to install the OTA. Oh well, thanks again for your time.

After communicating the issue to support, they said to do an RMA. This is my second RMA for this device, which is pretty annoying.

I think there must be some serious issues with TF201 and JB. I have got into exactly the same position by trying to use Protato's method to update to WW JB - and so have at least 3 others. But if the genuine update is doing this too!!
I'm going to request RMA. My tablet has gone to hell and this is just the seal of approval. Have a feeling I'm Infinity bound now. Good luck to all.
I am definitely going to have to RMA at this point. 3rd for me. Mine started off with the wonderful Serial Number unknown and was then suffering from pretty bad wifi/bluetooth fallout. ASUS has made good by me on both cases so far and I felt pretty good about my Prime but I must say I'm a bit disappointed that I need a 3rd RMA. I'll be happy overall if they get it back to me in good working order in a timely fashion.

How long foes RMA take for you usuallly? I was an idiot before to an opened up my Prime. I didn't mess with it just peaked to assembly if my camera fell out. Think this will matter? Do we have to pay the shipping?
NEED DESPERATE HELP ! ! ! [/B]
My HOX+ ran of out charge completely yesterday while I was playing a game on the phone. I plugged the phone in for charging via USB, the red light blinked three times and stopped. There is no sign of the phone charging anymore. So I then tried charging it via an AC adapter. The red lights stays there for only about 5 seconds and disappears again.
I have tried already tried to hard reset (power + volume down) the device. No sign of recovery! I also tried removing the SIM card and tried charging. This wasnt of much help either.
Please help with out any charge I'm not able to see a lot of options for my phone????

My recovery is kind of under a big question mark. I was using CWM but due to certain reason i wanted to shift to twrp. So i got rid off the CWM and flashed Twrp. However when i booted into recovery it just showed a black screen. This happened about two weeks ago tho. Could this be the issue?

Could be,
Visit Lloir's thread or TWRP official site and install the TWRP that is relevant to you (INTL / ATT)
you need to restart in fastboot to flash recovery.

I did that previously. I used the recovery suggested for my phone. Something still went wrong with the recovery.
I cant restart in fastboot. The phone is dead, No charge to even flash a ROM or do anything to recover my phone.
I think its time to give it to HTC. Hopefully since the phone doesn't switch on they probably wouldn't be able to figure out its rooted.
Thanks for your help guys but I think its time to call it.
Time of death- 10:28 P.M

Okay So I left the phone on charge for 27 hours. No lights and no sign of any activity. So then I had this little whack idea
I plugged my phone into the PC first. As I mentioned earlier- When I plugged my device into the PC the light blinked three times and then no light at all.
So this time when i plugged it into the PC I held the power button and waited for the three blinks after this I quickly took the usb cord and plugged it into an AC adapter while still holding the power button and Voilaaa
The phone is completely functional again.
Glad to have put you on the right track

But never when it is not even turning on...
Hi All.
Not exactly the same problem but very similar. I've opened my HOX+ a little (just enought to measure the pogo pins by inside). Then, when my device got discharged (already closed), I plugged the AC power and turned it on. During the boot screen, It suddenly turned off and now, when I plug the power the only thing I got is a red light blinking forever. No boot screen.... My device was unlocked and flashed with Elegancia for some days before it happened.
Does anyone has any ideas? Now I have a pretty fancy paperweight!

the flashing red lights = it's charging but not enough juice to boot, so leave it on an AC charger for about 30minutes

After some hours, all still the same. I think that this could be due to a bad contact. I dont know? Any other thoughts?
because of my stupidity, I accidentally flashed the FTF for the Xperiz Z (yuga).
Any ideas on how to get back my device? thank you!

won't boot. seems responsive when I press power + volume keys (white led lights up).
edit: device gets detected on flashmode using flashtool but it gets undetected soon after and the LED indicator becomes red.
This is exactly what happened to me yesterday! I seem to have flashed a bad recovery after I finally decided to unlock the BL after much deliberation and lusting for some Kitkat goodness. Now it won't turn on. BUT:
It WILL give me a red LED (steady) when I do the Power + Vol-Up dance while connected to USB. However, the computer won't recognize it since it won't turn on at all. No SUS, no EMMA, no nothing. It won't go into Fastboot mode or Flash Mode.
There will be white-purplish LED action when I press Power + Vol-Up. First a single blink, three in a row when I hold it for a few seconds. I won't get a red light when not on USB.
That's all. I had the XTZ charged over night (with red LED on) but that didn't change a thing. This is the first time ever bending an Android to my will went sour and I have done it with dozens. Does anyone have any idea what to do?

Indeed. But since it was clinically dead, I now have a brand spanking new N7 for sale. Let see how much in value it lost in one day
So, ever since i updated to a 4.4 rom ive been having some boot loop issues. In the past i just had to plug the phone in and itd boot right up. But today it seems to have gotten into a pickle.
About every 7 or so seconds it reboots itself back to the white HTC splash screen. I can get into fastboot, but after a few seconds it reboots again, and i cant get into recovery at all because its rebooting so fast.
Any ideas on how to fix it, and any ideas on how to prevent it from happening in the future

Is it possible without those few seconds to some how get it to reset.. If not there really isn't anything you can do. You'll half to take your phone for a replacement.
Only other thing your can try is to fastboot a RUU

Thanks, I didn't realize that the bootloader was rebooting as well. Sounds like he's got hardware issues.
Sounds like a hardware issue to me as well. You have a warranty? Otherwise you could try taking it apart and see if the battery has a bad connection or something. I have a feeling it's the soc or something like that though. I feel like the fact that it's happening since you updated to 4.4 is probably a coincidence.

So, i feel that it may be my power button going bad in some way. Because before it goes into the bootloop the 3 hardware buttons flash, as if the power button is being held down, and ive found that to get out of the bootloop i can just 'pump' the power button

Do you think, maybe, the power button is bad. I've seen a few reports of this.
Sounds to me like it's stuck, pressed. That would cause the repeated reboots, lights flashing, etc.
Edit-- I see you already suspect this is the problem. Never mind...
Well, i flashed back to a 4.3 sense rom yesterday and havent experienced the bootlooping issues since. For reference, before i switched back it got to the point that it was doing it twice an hour
So hopefully it is a software issue and not a hardware issue(knock on wood), id rather not go through the hassle of paying my deductible and getting a new phone
Hi all,
My phone is rooted, and I'm not on any special ROM as I only really wanted access to the WIFI thether app. Everything has been running smooth for months, but now the phone won't go past the white htc ONE logo. Here's what I've tried:
Holding the power button down does nothing.
Holding the volume button down with the power button down does nothing.
Holding the volume up button down with the power button down reboots the phone in this way: Black screen, White HTC screen with red letters saying it's a developers build, then the Sprint Spark animation and the screen goes to full brightness, then the animated white htc ONE splash screen and the screen goes to low brightness and stays there.
Can I get any help to get to some other screen?
Thanks in advance.,

Well, rebooting it over and over and over (and over) again finally got me to the home screen. I think I'm about to give up root and start totally clean, in case it's dying and I need to get a replacement. Now I have to google how to remove the root.
Thanks for listening to my sad story.
