Guys I am a week into this and still can't figure out exactly what I am doing wrong. I did the Prime Wipe and was able to get back into TWRP Recovery but nothing much beyond that. I installed the ADB and platform tools on my PC and Mac using the many tutorials provided. I have tried both machines with no luck.
I am able to find my Galaxy Nexus and Infinity with no problems in ADB, but I can not find my Prime while in TWRP recovery like others in the Prime Wipe Thread for some reason. I am confident I can get my ROM to push if I can just get my ADB to List my device.
TWRP seems to be my only option because my TF Prime freezes every time I pick the USB icon on the Fastboot screen.
I am at my wits end. If anyone can help, at all, it will be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
I got my tablet Asus Eee Pad Memo ME171. When installing the device Clockworkmod was brick. QHUSB_DLOAD see it as a device in Device Manager. Asus has given Firmware own site. Installation can not. Can you help?
Hello,
I download from the ASUS website the firmware with version "V10.4.2.18 Only for WW SKU (Android 4.1)" and the pop-up for update de firmware appear normally to me.
Then, the TF201 restarted and since then does not passes through the ASUS Logo.
I Was on 4.0.0.3, firmware 9.4.2.28 and tried to upgrade to a superior version (my mistake as I can see now).
Even when restarting with Power + VOL DOWN the only thing that appears is :
----......................
The Device is Unlocked.
Android cardhu-user bootloader <2.10 e> released by "WW_epad-9.4.2.28-20120525" A03
Checking for android ota recovery
Booting recovery kernel image
-----------
And stays here forever... No option with the 3 icons, so I can choose USB... And neither the VOL UP during this process does nothing...
Anyone can help?
Thanks in advance
Looks like you updated to an incompatible version. The first thing you needed to do was to unlock the bootloader. Volume up will not work unless you specifically enable nvflash, which is the second thing you needed to do. Considering that you still have usb, you may be able to use fastboot to replace your recovery. From there you may still be able install an older rom. If you can get at least some kind of rom running, you'll want to enable nvflash first thing so that you can make your tablet bricksafe. Let us know if you get that far...

I installed the drives and the PC recognizes the TF-201.
But it seems that fastboot can't recognize the tablet.
Well, I didn't get so far...
But I still want to try, but I'm a little lost...
Any help?

From my PC device manager I can see the asus transformer Prime APX Interface and is saying that "This device is working properly.".
However, every command that I sent from fastboot the result is always the same:
< waiting for device >
I'm completely out of ideas to get this back to work...
THATS BAD do u have working adb ?
No i don't...
HOW to Reserruct from APX mode^
HI all,
I have been searching for months how to unbrick the tf201 after trying to load the official update from Asus.
I see so many users stuck like myself in APX mode with the "unlocked" message and Asus Logo.
I have tried in all described ways on the forums to get it to fastboot mode but nothing is helping.
Asus as many have written, are charging a lot for repair, I even bought another used one hoping I could upload the saved blob file from it but it is device related as I read. Is there any solution that will help?
I see a lot of advanced users creating roms and upgrades but never proposing how to unbrick this device in APX mode.
Thank you for all developers here who take the time to push things forward. :angel:

Did you get lucky meanwhile?
My TF201 is working. Recovery ok. Android is working and booting.
But every time when i want to reflash by fastboot i endup with
`< waiting for device >` Fastboot is responding on `devices` command with device id but on flash still waiting.
Now when i was trying again to flash i noticed something.
`lsusb` is returning my TF201 as
```
Bus 003 Device 049: ID 0b05:4daf ASUSTek Computer, Inc. Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 (Fastboot)
```
I think thats my problem. Does anybody know how to repair it ?
Next step
Ok i figured out It's not a problem. This state is ok but still problem in flash -
After i reconfigured udev and serval things finaly able to call flash command but it only says "sending"
I'm sending there a recovery - flatline so 7MB waiting 5 minutes. No success.
Any ideas?
What bootloader version does it say your 201 is running?
NP
I was on some stock bootloader. Then i downgraded to 10.4.2.15. Finally i figured out fastboot on my PC was not communicating with tablet.
So i flashed recovery from my Macbook without any problem... Backuped tablet with wheelie and nvflash.
So my problem is gone. Now i flashed again kernel_chooser every thing is fine.
Just now im trying to find some old images of some linux and kernel to boot up some linux.
If you know about tell me. Otherwise we can close this thread.
Hello, I would like to ask you for your help with my Asus epad transformer prime tf 201, basically the program that has been installed on this tablet doesn't work very well, it show up with "an unknown error occurred which could be linked to your Internet connection. Wait and then try later".
Asus doesn't want to help me with this situation by telling me that its against the rules for them to reprogram this tablet.
Tf201 is rooted
Version system: WW_epad-10.4.2.18-20121122
I know that the tablet is old but would any one know how to do this properly
Please help me !
