So I got myself a cheap TF201 tablet and decided to put Android 7.1 on it using this guide. I followed the instructions completely and everything went perfectly well.
Had TWRP 3.2.3.0 installed, Android 7.1 installed and it was working great. Rebooted a few times, set up my Google account in Android, started installing a few usual apps such as Chrome, etc. when suddenly the Pad completely locked up. It then rebooted and went straight to the TWRP logo screen, sat there for 10-20 seconds then rebooted. And now that is all it does - ASUS screen comes up for a couple of seconds with "This device is unlocked" in the upper left, then tries to go into recovery but it reboots instead.
I cannot access fastboot mode at all - holding PWR + Vol DN does nothing. I can access APX mode and I can briefly use ADB while the TWRP is up.
I have backups of all blobs and I have nvflash installed - I got through the whole guide step by step without a single problem.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!
I got quite the same issue here, I also flashed 7.1.2 yesterday and installed some stuff. Then today I wanted to install Magisk to root it. After the installation (I can't remember that it was successful but I think it wasn't because there was no Magisk app to find) I wanted to boot another time to the recovery and went into a bootloop. When I'm trying to boot to TWRP it stucks at the teamwin logo. Sadly I have no cable here at the moment to maybe reflash the recovery or try some other stuff.

Dear community,
I tried to boot into CWM (installed via Rom Manager) but nothing happend after the reboot-to-recovery, invoked via Rom Manager. The tablet was stuck at boot, displaying the Asus logo. No animations and no error messages were displayed. I needed to press and hold power to reset my prime so it would boot my rom again. I was still able to load fastboot (power + volume down)
Next I tried to reboot-to-recovery using Goo Manager. The same issue occurred, stuck at startup, displaying the Asus logo, but now I am unable to recover from that state to load the rom!. When resetting my prime it is still stuck at displaying the Asus logo. No animations and no error message displayed. I can also no longer enter the menu using power+volume down...
I am afraid I perma-bricked my Prime but ofcourse hope it is not the case. Can anybody help me confirming my fear?
Thank you for helping me out!

That is bricked unfortunately.
CWM only ever worked on the ICS bootloader and there are warning everywhere on here never to use it.
You needed the correct version of TWRP for what bootloader you was on.
If you cannot get into the rom, the bootloader menu or you have nvflash backups that you created before then you are out of luck.
Hi flumpster, Thanks for clearing this up :good:
I think I have the similar problem. I have TF201 Android 4.1.2 installed and a PC Ubuntu 13.04 installed.
-First of all, I used unlocker releases by Asus. Then I loaded CWM by fastboot, but it didn't launch, I loaded CWM Touch, but it didn't launch, I loaded TWRP and again it didn't launch. When I tried to launch recovery rom every time it stuck at splashscreen.(It says booting recovery rom or smth like that)
-Then I tried to start unlocker again, it gave network error.(If you shut down the wifi it asks for internet, I think Asus collecting some information about prime.)
-Then I rooted my device. Again it stuck at splashscreen while trying to launch recovery rom. I reloaded recovery roms again it didn't work. I choose restart to recovery from the ROM MANAGER, it stuck again but nothing about "booting recovery rom" just "device is unlocked" writen. Then finally I installed CWM from ROM Manager again and I choose restart to recovery from GOO Manager. Boom! I think it tries to boot recovery rom in everytime. I can't boot android, I can't boot fastboot, power+volume down didn't work. Even I can't close it, it always restarts and I had to wait until the battery last.
So is there anything to do?
So a friend recently bought this spanish voxter tab 97 IPS (16GB) and after a few days of usage and several attempt to install a custom ROM, the tablet stopped booting. According to him, he tried loading a "compatibility bla bla bla.zip" file with CMW which I really do not know what it is, and since he did the installation, the tab stopped booting into system. Every time it's turned on, it just stops at the boot screen and nothing more. Although before this, he had installed a custom recovery and had also done a Nandroid backup with the recovery. However, what baffles me is, CMW is no longer accessible through the normal "power + volume up" key combo and I'm quite unsure of how to boot into fastboot.
That aside, I tried booting into recovery with adb because apparently, adb recognizes the device whenever it's stuck at boot screen, this also failed, neither did rebooting into fastboot via adb work. All I need to know is if this device is totally bricked, or if there's still something I can do. If there's any, I really would appreciate every help offered. Thanks..
I installed stock Android 10 Q (from 9 P) via Odin on my galaxy tab s6 LTE, then i unlocked the bootloader and rooted with magisk (manager 7.5.1, zip 20.4) following the magisk git site installation instructions (which are a bit more complicated than from some third party sites.)
Everything ok, but then when i power off it reboots. It's not in a bootloop: it boots up normally, but if i can't power off then that's not good when I'm not using it. I tried patching again and checked i got the the same md5.
Eventually i found that if i booted to recovery mode and there i choose reboot, it reboots to unrooted, but it does power off.
To get root access again i start with the recovery key combination but let go at the splash screen before it enters stock recovery mode. This means that i have to reboot each time i want to either switch it off or have root (but not both.) It's good enough for now, so I'm posting this in case anything else has the same problem.
A strange problem. I flashed 18.1 and it seems to work (I can boot into a minimal system) but now I can't get into TWRP Recovery even though I used it to flash 18.1 in the first place. The phone powers up fine but when I hold down Vol- and power, it does not boot into TWRP but boots into Lineagos. If I try ADB, then it sees the phone but it's offline and I've tried all the tricks to get it back online.
I also notice that when the android on his back is displayed, then Download Mode at the bottom is indicating Disabled.
Any ideas, or is it completely stuffed?
Hello
I tried to root my nexus 10 with the nrt by wugfresh. Everything went smooth and when I pressed unlock bootloader button. The tablet restarted and went into a bootloop. I searched the internet how to solve and I managed to get into recovery mode. But before doing anything in recovery mode, I decided to use flash stock + unroot button to fix my tablet and I set tablet status to bootloop. Everything works until it restarted my tablet. Now every time i start my tablet it doesn't even show the google logo, it goes straight to android guy with the hatchet open and I can't select anything. When I go to recovery mode, it just restarts my tablet and goes to the android guy again. Nothing works anymore. Please help me. Thank you
