[Q] Unable to start anything - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hello everyone,
I'm a bit crying right now, i hope you can help :-/
So, i thought about going to cyanogen on my tf201 some months ago. What i remember is that i unlocked it using the asus software then i installed some versions of twrp (i think). After that i stopped because i was kind of lost between many tutorials.
I did not use the tablet since that, i was abroad.
I get it back today and i tried to reset everything, so i went in the settings and click on the reset thing. It did not work, the tablet just blocked on Asus screen and when i manually restarted it, it was like i did nothing (normal boot and no reset).
So i went in the bootloader (power + vol down) and i tried the (4th?) option to wipe everything. The thing said something like "loading image ...." and blocked.
Now the tablet is blocked on the first screen (with asus writen in the middle) and it won't boot, i can not go into the bootloader either, i only have that screen.
I can not even shut it down, keeping power pressed will only restart it.
Is there anything i can do or is the tablet dead ?
Thanks for any help

Help!!! My Samsung galaxy player is bricked! (i think)

hello, my name is shahrukh and i need some help. i downloaded animmod (from 4shared) and then i donwloaded busybox. then i pressed blur and then it asked me if i want to reboot it. i pressed yes. this is when the problem starts. It turned off and then it turned on half way and then it turned off. it kept doing that and then i just left it for the night. in the morning it was not doing anything. when i held the power button it turned off and on for like two times and then turned off. i cant even start it up so i have no idea what to do.
i don"t know what to do
please help!!!!
Okay, we need details, describe exactly when "halfway on" is. We need your full model number and rom version (if you know it). Have you tried plugging it in to charge? Does it show anything now that you try to boot it? try holding volume up and powering on to enter recovery menu.
details
ok so when it turns on it says samsung. then after like 10 seconds it turns off. it does that for a few times and then it just goes in a black screen. the model number is YP-G7OC/NAW. when i plug it in to charge it goes on and off two times and then off. if it has low battery it just shows the sign. as for the rom i don't think i have any. i just rooted it using superoneclick. if it goes to recovery mode what do i do?
thanks!
(you got me really fired up when i saw the recovery menu!)
If you can get to recovery menu, try a factory reset, and clear cache. I am not sure if there is a recovery rom for your device, you should check samfirmware.com
tried both of them...no luck. and i couldn't find a recovery rom on samfrimware.com.
Your device has capacitive or mechanical home button?
it has a capacitive home button...the usa version

The phone boots in recovery?
If so, I can investigate a little more what's happening.
I'll try to post a return-to-stock image soon... The problem is that mine is cluttered with crap that the zergRush exploit added (it insisted on installing busybox instead of just rooting...)
(I'm not sure, but I think someone else already posted a stock zImage and system image...)
Here is the post about fixing capacitive buttons. A quick search of forum should have found it.

nooooooo!!! you guys have all got it wrong. first of all it doesnt boot in recovery. the only way to get in recovery mode is when it shows the battery sign i hold "up volume"+ power button.and the capaciative button is completely fine. im just stuck in a bootloop (i think) and it has nothing to do with a broken capacitive button! i will try to post a video today to show you guys exactly whats happening.
i kind of had the same problem, one time i thought i had entropy's kernel on and i had CWM well i didn't but i still thought i had so i tried rebooting into recovery using the terminal:
su
reboot recovery
then i turned off and went to this weird recovery menu it had four options, reboot system, apply update from SD card, wipe data partition, and power off and it had a ton of red letters and words saying like, couldn't access data partition or cache partition and couldn't access /data/media, or system, and then i just turned it off because i wouldn't let me choose an option, and then i got stuck in a loop but not during when it says SAMSUNG mine happened during the animation music part that look like fireworks and then SAMSUNG would light up blue then go through it again and 2 more times then go black and i tried flashing the US stock ROM in download mode but still would go through the loop and it doesn't even charge so i got nothing
so did you somehow fix yours? and i never got a recovery menu that showed something about shut down.:confused
Before brick
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
wait....are you asking me those questions? just to tell you im no developer or something. im just a 12 year old who has his galaxy player stuck in a boot loop. you have to make another thread if you have a problem.
sorry!
Ok. : ) You got it wrong. No problem. His case is different from mine. Just wanted to use her Brick in case. Nothing more. good luck.
I resolve my doubts alone. Nothing that Google does not respond. haha
At least before brick.
ok. let me ask google too xD
anyways..anyone have any idea of how to fix this boot loop?
im trying to do the Linux thing by running the ressurector ans the VM windows the forum is posted under development called hard brick recovery for galaxy 5.0
ok.(i have no idea what you are saying...just saying!)

[Q] Can't access recovery nor reset to factory settings on rooted device

Hello,
I own an Android tablet KO PARA1 FULL and experiencing a strange problem. This is a chinese atm7029 quadcore tablet (16gb, 1gb ram, without bluetooth, only wifi, bu supports 3g dongle), running android 4.1.1 nad 3.4.0+ kernel, which came prerooted. After some time I've decided to install backup programs on in to make a full backup of the device for the case something would go wrong, and after some trying I descovered, that there is something like recovery for that purposes which seemed a good solution for me. I decided to install CWM, which I managed to install without problems and made some backups on my device. Everything was fine, I did some factory resets through the time, some restoring processes from my previously backup states of the device, was always able to activate CWM recovery menu through Reboot to recovery or through combination of Volume down a Power button...
Until last saturday. I was normaly surfing the internet, reading mails and afterwords I powered my tablet off (it is draining battery in sleep mode, but its another story..). After a while wanted again to write a mail, so I powered it on. In that momet seemed the screen too dirty for me and I tried to cleen it little bit throug the bootup process. Unfortunately I obvious confused the system with it and after boot it was not responding properly. I did not wait enough and after a while powered it off with power key pressed for a long time, to make a new boot.
But when I powered it on again, it stayed stuck in boot logo and did not boot at all. I've tried a copple of times to boot it again with no cuccess, stayed stuck in boot logo for more then 10 min...
Afterwards I decided to make it boot up with the help of computer. I downloaded adb and drivers and somehow managed to make it boot up. I thing I was too excited to see it boot up again, that during boot up process I desconected my device from computer...
My worries were reliesed and I thought it would be a good idea to make a restore from backup to prevent some strange behaviour, so wanted to boot into recovery, but nothing had happened. After some repeated clicks on Boot into recovery button, as well as app called rebooter with nothing happening, I decided to try it out through button combination. It has not worked as well Next try was to reset to factory settings. But when I go through the menu, I can click on reset to factory settings button, seeing warning that I will lost ma data, then I can push the button to make it happen, but nothing is happening. I see only the screen with the button, can touch it 100 times and the tablet stays on, fully funcional. making no factory reset as it done before.
I did a lot of reading and searching, but have not find answer for my problem. I flashed recovery images from my backups (using flashify, flash gordon, adb shell, terminal emulator), from all previously functional states of the device. I refleshed the CWM recovery downloaded from the internet for my chipset, which previously did the job just perfect, with no success...
I am still not able to reach recovery menu. For me it seems like the bootloader would be locked, but I did not find the answer how to unlock it without to be able to start in some recovery state to use fastboot command to unlock it.
Otherwise, my device is functional, still rooted, i can use it without any other problems. But not be able to do recovery from my backups, even do a factory reset.
How can I restore my access to recovery mode? Is it somehow possible?
Hopfully it is not too much information (tryied to follow the intructions and wrote everything I thought would be important to know about) and you will not be bothered to read all my story and pull me out of my darkness with helpfull suggestion.
Thanks a lot in advance
Steve

[Q] HELP! Stuck on bootloader unlocked screen, phone wont turn on! Motorola Xt890

A few months ago my phone (Motorola Xt890) froze, so i turned it off and couldnt turn it on again, it would go from the motorola logo to the intel inside logo and so on... i tried to fix it on my own, so i cleared the cache, reset factory settings, and updated it from adb device, but it only turned on for a little while, i noticed the "fastboot: max download size: 100mb" error, unlocked the bootloader and rooted it, but it didnt work either, so i reinstalled the operative system, it worked just fine for about 3 months, and now it froze again and i wont go anywhere but the "warning bootloader unlocked" screen, i can enter the fastboot, but i dont want to loose all the data again, is there anything i can do?, is it a hardware problem?.. maybe the internal memory is damaged.. could that be it?
sorry for the broken english, and thanks so much for your help.

[Q] Stuck at encryption unsuccessful - Impossible to factory reset

Hello,
This morning, I was reading comics on my tablet, an it froze completely. The touchscreen and buttons were not responding so I held the power button to turn it off. I turned it on again, and I had an "Encryption unsuccessful" message, saying that I needed to perform a factory reset. The problem is that I never set up my tablet with encryption...
That being said, this screen pops in when my tablet starts, and there is nothing else I can do but to turn it off. I tried the following :
Reboot
Reboot to safe mode
Launch the recovery mode and launch the Android icon (I don't know what it's here for)
Launch the recovery mode and launch a factory reset
The factory reset starts for less than one second before showing the Android sign with a red alert triangle, and resets the tablet. At this point, nothing worked, I am still stuck with this screen, I don't really see what I can do.
I bought my tablet in the US in 2012, it runs Jelly Beans if I recall correctly (the ASUS version, I never rooted it). I have a Mac running Mountain Lion if it can help. Does anyone know what I can try now ?
Thank you in advance for your help

Is the bootloader unlocked ?

No, it is the default bootloader. Everything is standard, I never felt the need to modify the OS of my tablet. Do you have a theory?

Honor 8 stuck on boot (no fastboot, no recovery, stock rom)

Hi guys,
first of all thank you for taking your time and reading through this. I'm not completely new to android, nor using fastboot and recovery. I flashed a few phones over the past years I even resurrected bricked ones. However I have no idea what is happening to my Honor 8. One thing to mention, it's the latest Nougat update, and a STOCK ROM.
It all started this afternoon. The phone suddenly reboot while using it. After that, the android screen came on, then Honor animation and.. freeze. Completely. I had to reboot using the long press method since it was stuck between the bootloader and the rom itself. It started up ok after that.
An hour passed, and while I was typing a message, it froze again. I could go back to home but the phone was really slow. After opening up Messenger again, it froze completely. Had to restart again with the long-press reboot method. It started up ok, entered the sim pin and upon entering the screenlock code it froze again, completely. Long-press reboot, again.
Since then, the phone won't boot. It gets stuck every time on "Honor powered by Android" for about a minute, then it reboots itself. I even got some weird green screen with a blue and a red rectangle, but that just stopped after a few reboots.
I mentioned that I know how to recover and fix stuff when something acts weirdly, but that's not the case, I can't do ANYTHING. No fastboot, no recovery, no button combinations, I can't even turn off the phone. It just keeps rebooting on and on, and yes, the battery will eventually die, but I have no access to any recovery options. I even tried dload but no luck.
It's still under warranty so I can send it back but I just rather fix it at home (without taking it apart), because I don't want to wait 3 weeks to get fixed. But it seems like that is the only option right now, I have never ever seen anything like this happen.
Any help or comment is appreciated. Even if it's not possible to do it at home (hardware issues?), I am really curious what can be the cause of this issue (damaged rom, filesystem permission issues?).
Thanks.
