This. Just boot into recovery with the phone plugged in and you shouldn't have any issues.

Failing plugging it in to a power source, reboot your phone into recovery again.. sometimes I run into these hiccups in Recovery and a reboot fixed them..

do you have the engineering hBoot or the stock hBoot? Can you boot into a fully working ROM?
it happened to mine as well...did you flash a new kernel on it....sometimes on a rom if you flash a new kernel to lets say overclock your phone or some sort it goes into a BootLoop where the Mytouch boot screen keeps rebooting but does not go into any rom...if you can get to recovery wipe cache and try to reboot..if you cant get to recovery try getting to it through the normal Hboot (volume down +power key)..hope it helps

If you can boot completely, install ROM Manager and flash a recovery with it. If you can't boot, then you can flash a recovery using the fastboot tool from the Android SDK, but only if you have the engineering bootloader (0.85.2007)

When adb said my device was offline I just typed in (While it was connected)
Code:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
any my device was online.
Are there anyone who knows what they are talking about? Or, most people just say things to be busy or something. Come on people if you dont know how, why waste your time

Help please! :( need to nflash b70 device.

Hello, need some help please.
Had my 101 with JB Nightlies rom and wanted to try another rom. I've downloaded super wipe for samsung galaxy S3 and run it in my CWM.
The process didn't finish and the tablet restarted giving me an endless message saying to wait a few moments and that it was deleting everything.
The problem is that this process does not stop and i can't get in CWM again. It just stays there... tried to restart and the message comes again and no CWM.
I figure it out that i have to nflash my device but i never did it. I found Wheelie on this link: http://androidroot.mobi/2012/05/27/introducing-wheelie-nvflash-for-asus-transformer-tf101-b70/.
But i just don't know how to do it on linux... just installed Ubuntu.
Can anybody help me please? :crying:

First don't run scripts that are made for other devices, especially a super wipe script, not only that, some roms done need a super wipe, refer to the install directions on each ROM page.
Second,using olife though terminal is probably one of the more dificult methods to use to do what you need.
Try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688012&highlight=tool+one+click+stock
It's basically a simplified package instead of you using terminal, it's really straight forward but ask if you need help.
Great software m8 this is probably what i need!!!
The funny thing is that i've been here for 2 hours clicking on vol + and power button and i can't get in to APX mode and i know that i have the correct drivers installed because after the problem append i successfully connected to APX once

Are you clicking like a short press or actually holding them down.
To get into apx you need to hold both of those buttons down while the power is off, usually for about 5-10 seconds.
If it's boot-looping try holding the power and volume + button for like 30 seconds to 2 mins.
I've gotten stuck in a boot loop before and I just had to hold the buttons down for a while before it did anything.
Keep trying, good luck!
Btw is the script you're running on the internal storage or on an SD card?
If it's not even letting you boot android or recovery I think APX mode is your only hope.

I think my problem is my cable because before this happend to me i tried to copy a rom from the computer to the tablet and it wouldn't connect. I've order another cable from Ebay yesterday and let's see what will happens.
This program is very easy to use so i think i will not have a problem. :good:
Will report when i get the cable
Thank you very much!!!
Well, i tried on another computer and i got in APX mode and used the software to nvflash... it totally worked.
Thank you very much fauxsoul for your help :good:
This means that my tablet will never have anymore problems again despite the fact that is a b70 device except if i drop it on the floor! eheheh

Can't boot, tried flashtool, not going well, help

So heres my issue, ATT G2. Installed clean rom xe 1.1 then was dumb and used titanium to restore my app data, not system, just app. but someone that caused a system ui to keep crashing, so I got into recovery mode by holding down and power button (white screen that asks to reset to factory). Did that and it booted to TWRP ran a script and then went back to LG screen and then blank screen with flashing led and that's where it stayed, won't go any further.
I've put it in download mode now and am using LG flash tool but when I plug the phone in the box for COM41 in the flash tool just says waiting for connection and thats it. then when I unplug it it says failed, obviously. Is my phone a brick or can it be saved?
I think it's getting a model information check fail in lg flashtool, ugh this sucks.

LOL, i just went through the same thing. I'll be posting a fix tonight I worked out with Scott.
"There is a "back door" method. This is why they updated TWRP by the way...
Download this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...with cmd.zip
Extract it to desktop. open the command.bat file.
Type "adb reboot recovery" then press enter. You need to keep doing this during the factory reset.
This assumes you have drivers installed. If you have no drivers installed for recovery mode then just select generic Google Nexus ADB drivers.
You kinda have to hammer the reboot recovery command. Its all timing... To hammer it... press the up arrow in the dos prompt and that will repeat the line. then press enter.
Keep doing it until you see it reboot to twrp and you should be able to sideload or load from storage.
It may take 10 or 15 minutes to get the exact right timing so dont give up.
And of course, this is all dependent upon you having the drivers already installed."
- Scott
For timing, you'll need to wait right when TWRP starts writing the script and start hammering it out. Timing is everything so when you see the TWRP screen starting hitting the up cursor and enter. It should load recovery. Don't bother using the tool, it won't work as it thinks your device is a D802 and won't be compatible with the dll. This will get you back to normal and from here you can just wipe and reinstall the rom again fresh with out losing media/data on the your drive.

I haven't tested it on VZW unfortunately. Check with scrosler. However, I assume it should be similar if not the same, but don't quote me on that.
Updated Link guys: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qsjwguwtlyczwdh/adb with cmd.zip
so I got it right when it said teamwin to reboot but everytime it reboot it tried to run the script and would never actually go into twrp. att is sending me a new phone but I'm worried when I send this one back they'll get me for being rooted.

The minute you see the twrp screen pop up start hammering away at the adb command listed before. after you type it once, you can keep pressing the up cursor and it will just replicate the previous command. You are opening up the cmd in the adb folder right?

yeah just tried it again and as soon as I hit it it starts rebooting again goes to TeamWin screen and then runs the same script I posted before and when it is done it reboots and then goes to blank screen. I had just put the latest twrp on the day before too so I don't understand why it isn't booting to it.
My biggest thing is will ATT freak and send the phone back once they get it and go to download mode and see it says rooted or if they try the hard reset and see it goes to a TeamWin screen.
side note, if I can type adb shell and get it to prompt me there, is there anything I can try and type quickly to have it do anything else?

like 5-10 min at most. it's literally timing. and based on what i saw on the youtube video you were having the exact same problem. btw, you have your drivers installed correctly right? you can check that under device manager. BTW, are you using a PC or mac?

N900W8 stuck during boot

Hey all,
I have just run into an issue, I was installing CWM and all seemed well, but then when I had tried to boot into recovery by holding down the buttons.
However, when it would say recovery booting it would flash turn off and reboot.
I figured it was just an issue with how I was trying to get into the recovery so I used ADB to Reboot into recovery, and that went fine but now I am in a boot loop of the phone trying to get into recovery but when it isnt seeing CWM for some reason it just reboots and continues the cycle.
I would appreciate if anyone has any insight as to how I can fix this or lets hope its not this but if Im screwed at this point.
Thanks in advance,
nEmo
Gahh... This is really getting to me, I've tried everything I can think of.
No one out there has any ideas?
I know Im not being very patient but its the only phone I have access to right now
It almost seems like there is either no OS on it (I hadn't wiped anything at this point) so this is the least likely,
or there was something wrong with the version of CWM that I was trying to use.
I think why I can't connect anything or do anything like that is because it keeps trying to look for the recovery
but because CWM isn't properly there it just keeps looking for it and just keeps on going in that loop.
would love to hear from anyone.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply, I would love to do that but the part that it actually gets stuck at is before any of the OS is loaded,
What happens is when there is power to it (ie battery or when plugged into a wall socket) it will try to boot as if I had held
down the vol +, Power and home and get the "recovery booting" text, from here the screen turns off and vibrates, a second or two later it reboots and repeats.
I might try to get a video of it tomorrow.

Hello, so as the title mentioned, I am in something of a similar predicament. Odin Mode is stuck, and it won't recognize any recovery on the phone. How do you boot into fastboot? Could you describe what you did? Thank you in advance.
Odin mode and recovery mode are two different things. You can't get into download mode where you see the android with the shovel?

Hope you have recovered your phone....if not tell about:
1. What ROM were you on when such thing started happening - Stock or any custom ROM?
2. If on stock what recovery do you have - stock or TWRP?
3. If custom ROM which one? Did you try to install ROS 4 without suggested GApps? ROS 4 loops without GApps install as of now.
4. Do you have access to a PC?
You can also try via Telegram channel for "Le Max 2 Development" for quick help.

Sorry to hear that. Boot to recovery, copy all your data to PC. It would help if you can post a screenshot of recovery.
Recovery with vol up and power buttons.
Edit: Once done with backup post the recovery screen here. Someone will help resolve or attempt to resolve from here.

The phone has stock recovery. Let us check a few things but let us not clutter here. I assume you know how to go about with private messages.
If you do not know how to, see the attached image - XDA accessed from my PC. You can read private messages and reply from there as well. First off we should sync our time. See your inbox.
