Hey Everyone.
I recently went back home from college to find my transformer completely bricked. I have no idea what is wrong with it, and although It was previously rooted, was running prime, and was overclocked, I don't really know exactly what was on it anymore.
As it is now, it will not turn on, and just loops to tge EEE Pad ASUS screen when turned on or off, and does not do anything else. If I attempt to get into recovery by holding tho volume key down, then pressing up, It goes to the android guy with a ! in a triangle.
I really want to get it back working, and hopefully running ICS. I have looked all over and can not find anything that helps. I really want to use it for taking notes in class.
Can anyone please explain to me as if I was an idiot (Which I am) what to do.
It was be greatly appreciated!
Thanks Alot,
Alex

That Android guy with ! is your stock recovery.
Try Vol down plus power button but instead of Vol Up,
wait till you get the Cold boot or wipe data option. Try cold booting first to see if it work.
If not try wiping data.
I suspect it did an ICS update while you were gone?
Well, first of all what SBK version do you have? (If you dont know, check your serial number, if its B70 or higher, you have SBK2).
Second, try a cold boot by starting it with power + vol-, then wait until you get the option to cold boot.
You can install the official asus 4.0.3 rom by downloading it from their site, unzipping the zip file, rename the new zip to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip (not sure if thats the correct naming), place it in the root of your SD card then boot recovery. It should install the rom then and, hopefully, start.
Id recommend doing that as a last resort though, unless you dont really care about losing whatever you got on the tablet right now.
There are most likely other ways to get it going again.
edit: damn it baseball, dont sneak in with an answer while Im writing my own answer
I've tries both cold booting and wiping and both just freeze the transformer up.
Although the wipe says that it atleast completes before freezing.
The problem is that I can not get into recovery tho, so how am I supposed to load up the official rom? I do not care about losing any data at all.
Any other suggestions? I do not have a b70 transformer btw!
You have recovery but it's stock recovery.
Download the official firmware from ASUS.
Extract the zip file and rename to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip"
Put it on the root of your sd card and bout into recovery
(it's that Android with ! that you saw)
Thanks alot guys that fixed it pretty easilly.
Typing this from it right now.

I am new to the android world, I have a vibrant that I rooted using the update.zip method. Then I went to apply the LAG FIX using the same method from the RyanZA thread. Now all I get is a boot sound and a black screen along with the buttons on the bottom glowing. I have no Idea where to even begin to recover this. I have a mac, any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you in advance!

That's a boot loop. In your case, being new and all, it might be better to re-install the ROM and try again. You might need to give it a while as well, I don't know the details of the zip you used, but it might be copying large amounts of data, which will look like a stall in the boot process.
Get ADB and open a terminal window and do "adb logcat" it should let you know where you are stuck in the boot. Post the log and someone here should be able to help you.
Also, get boot camp and/or Virtualbox going so you can use Odin, which requires Windows. If you mess something up, you can use Odin to get back to a stock setup. Sucks that it requires Windows, but that's just how it is for now.
Oppps mis-read this phone is complete black no noise just heat
Moved your thread to general section.
Had the same problem when I tried to install that FixLag update.zip. Lucky for me, I did an Anroid Backup before I attempt it.
Hold down Vol+ & Vol- and power it up, do a Wipe.. when its done, restart your phone. When its booting up, its gonna act the same without the Tmobile Flash and still missing the Samsung Galaxy S logo. Just wait for your phone to VIBRATE. Then your phone should be working. I dont know what happen in that update.zip but it deleted the Graphic at the beginning when you first boot up your phone. After that I went back and did a Recovery and got everything back too normal.

It worked!! Thank you so much! I am back up and running. No boot screens, however funtional and root maintained. Is there a way to recover the boot screens?
I was just searching through the forums for the answer to the last post in this thread - "is there a way to reinstall the boot animation? Well, is there? Mind, I DO NOT want the horrible tmo portion, just the S.
Thought?

I just did this to my phone like the ones stated above..... Blank screen then vibrate and im in the Android OS and it changed the Audio but still no graphics....... Kinda disapointing but until someone finds hwo to actually finx this I'm stuck.
Hi everyone, I'm a new member to the forum, but have been a follower for quite some time.
Let's start by introducing my device wich is:
EEEPad Transformer TF101G with ICS running the latest WW_9.2.2.6 firmware.
The device is rooted and running ASUS stock recovery.
Everything was working fine until I decided to do a Cold Boot.
It got stuck on the cold boot menu for like 3 hours and I decided to turn it off.
After that it got stuck on the inicial Asus splash screen. I forced it to turn off a couple a times and it eventually booted up.
I knew something wasn't right, so I backed up all my files and applications.
Then decided to do a factory reset through POWER + VOL-
After that it never booted again, and after a few seconds on the splash screen I hear a click noise, like the hard drive is turning off.
When I try force it to turn off, it starts up again automatically.
I've tried to flash it through nvflash, but being a TF101G it also means it is sbkv3, wich is not supported by nvflash.
Also tried boot recovery tools, but it won't even start, because as I try to connect it to the computer through adb mode, after that "click" noise, the device becomes disconnected.
I didn't try any dangerous applications and stuff like that, just decided to do a simple cold boot, the device is a week old.
If I'm posting this in the wrong section I apologize.
And hope someone can come up with a good idea.
Thanks in advance.
Obviously somethings corrupted and in my opinion the only way to fix it would be to reflash the rom in apx mode using nvflash but that doesn't seem to be possible for your device as of yet but if everything is still stock maybe you can unroot the device (or play dumb) and get it replaced under warranty?
I don't think I can unroot it, since it won't run abd mode.
I'm trying to find a way of not having to send it to warranty.
Saving it as a last resort...

Eek.. since it was factory resetted I think you need to send it to warranty. Not much we can do now with just a splash screen on sbkv3
I don't consider myself an advanced user.
But I really did search everywhere and I got the idea that only with APX and without a compatible NVFlash I was screwed.
But I still had some hope.
Do you think they will give me trouble because of it being rooted?
I my opinion I don't think they will ever know, because It won't boot, It won't run recovery mode (stock) and nothing else at all, the only way to fix it is to flash it, but maybe I'm just being naive.
I treated it with all the care in the world, so only by divine intervention it is a hardware problem.
But you never now...
you should be ok (should)......
i done pretty much the same thing to a customers TF and Asus fixed it no problem.
The fact is that I actually didn't do anything wrong.
Just a cold boot that didn't work, followed by a a factory reset...
How long did it take for yours to get fixed?
Hi all,
I thought I'd consult the brains trust to see if anyone thinks this is salvageable. Was using my A500 about 2 hours ago, suddenly the screen powered off. Thinking nothing of it, I held down the power button to restart it. When powering back on, nothing appears to happen except for the power button lighting up. No screen on, no vibe, nothing except the power light on.
Tried power cycling a few times to no avail. Tried the reset button. Tried the Vol+ Power and Rotation switch reset. Nothing.
Out of morbid curiousity, I plugged it into the PC and switched it on and I get an APX driver being installed. So, clearly something is happening here.
It has done this once before and came back to life of its own accord very shortly afterwards, this time it's been dead for quite some time.
Any suggestions? It's well out of warranty now, so I doubt Acer would be interested in it at all.

In the Dev threads, or possibly Q&A, there is a thread called "stuck in APX mode". In there I believe are some steps to see if you can recover.
But, if you're in APX mode, you could probably try NVFlashing the bootloader and recovery the old fashioned way manually.
But look up that APX thread first. Will probably have the answer. I'll see if I can find it in a little while, if you don't find it first.

Thanks MD. I looked up the threads you suggested, and after a lot of screwing around I have installed the APX drivers and used blackthund3r's APX Flash Util 0.3 (The link is broken to the current version) to attempt a recovery of my tab.
Its now sitting at an Acer screen, "Entering Acer Download Mode" while the flash util is sitting at:
Nvflash started
[resume mode]
It's been there for about 10 minutes now, no progress to report. Is it worth just sitting it out, or now that the damn tab shows SOME signs of life, can I just restart it and reset to factory?
And then most bizarre of all. I declared no progress, rebooted it. It went back to APX mode.
Re-ran the blackthund3r tool, it didnt do much so I bailed that. Restarted tab and attempted to load recovery (vol + and power) and it booted normally.
What the hell...

erm for now i would make sure you have all backups of data, cpud etc,.. just incase. you can just sit em on your computer i always try to keep a nandroid of all 3 of my devices each month or so.:good:
edit: and of course keep the link for the thread MD recommended.
Gee. Sounds exactly like mine....
The only thing I haven't tried is an update .zip, but I don't hold out much hope.
Considering parting out at this point....
Yeah, I dont have high hopes that it will last a whole lot longer. Up to this point it has been running Acer OTA updates only, no custom ROMs and no root.
I restarted the tab a little while ago and it went back into APX mode again and stayed there. Some more furious button mashing and attempted restore-mode boots, and it booted normally.
I made the point of wiping it this time using the Vol+ & Power & Rotation Lock trick and its been ok so far.

I have a cousin in Jamaica. She might possibly help (chicken foot and some frogs blood...voodoo you know)
Here's What I think.
You got some corrupt data or a partially bad devblock. This might explain the strange behavior on boot.
Like the tab really doesn't know how to boot.
Personally I would do 1 of 2 things at this point. Either;
1. Root that thing, and try running Timmy Deans root back to 3.2. This should reset your partitions back to normal. Then work your way back to an ICS rooted, Bootloader, and custom rom.
2. Leave it alone, and don;t turn the tab off. Clearly some partitions are messed up at this point. The toggle of the lock usually wipes user data. But the core issue is still there.
If it were me, I would pull out the nuclear missile and go for it all.

Tried timmiedean yesterday, went into Acer Download mode OK, failed....
If dolps is like mien, the first time he tries to go into recovery, it will crash again...
It's baaaack!
Tried blackthunder flash again, failed.
Went to turn off to get out of APX, and it booted!
Now boots, boots to recovery and boots to primary.
I have no explanation.
We will see.

I told you maaaannnn, go see me cousin in Jamaica maaaannnnn. She do some good things you see
Glad it's running again.
MD
First, is this a SOD?
I can kill it by booting into recovery and get it back by using Blackthunder flash tool to go into APX and letting it sit for 20 minutes or so. Close the program, unplug, reboot and it is back. I would like to use timmiedean (td) and go back to square 1, but it fails at the image detect ( displays ICS 4.0.3 Civato as the current image, a red X for the new image). Has td been proven to work reverting from ICS? Will a boot recovery reflash and a new ROM flash solve this? Is there another way to get out of ICS back to HC?
Any suggestions/comments welcome!
EDIT: I flashed FLEXxx V4. Shut it off, problem still there....
Really frustrated. Trying to use the timmiedean tool, but it requires that the unit be shut off in the middle of the process, which kills it. Does anyone know the whereabouts of the blackthund3r revert tool, or the .apx package for his flash tool. I can't find it...
I'm done with this one. On Ebay for parts.... GONE!!!
Have an A100 now, rooted, unlocked,. on Relix
1 more A500 coming next week
Not sure what the heck happened to my device. I was using it when it just froze up outta nowhere. I tried resetting it a couple times but it wouldnt get past the android screen. Hard Reset, nothing. So I tried going into APX mode, power+vol up(idk why) then, it wouldnt get past the 'Acer' screen after that. So I let it charge overnight now it doesn't show anything at all. The power button does light up, but thats it. what the heck just happened?
NOTE: I lent out my sdcard with the update.zip in it. would putting my sdcard back in fix the problem or is it bigger than that?
is this thread a possible solution to my problem? problems seem similiar

Eh, well, need to know the condition of the tab. Sounds like it is stuck in APX mode. (Black display, white PWR light). Is this the case?
Generally, you might be able to PWR down, by press and hold the pwr button for several seconds. Then try to boot it normally.
Oh, BTW, Pwr and Vol+ is not how to get it to APX. That usually gets the stock bootloader which really isn't much of anything unless you have an update.zip on your ext sd card.
Were you completely stock? (not rooted or custom rom)
MD
Yes that's the condition, black screen white pwr light. It is rooted, thats it. Running ICS 4.0. I wont be able to get my sd card until wednesday so if I need that update.zip file I'll have to wait a few more days. Its completely off right now, I tried powering on and off a few times and I got nothing just a blank screen. Im unsure, what to try next??

Yeah, you're going to need an SD card. And make sure the tab is charged.
In the meantime, you can try a couple things just to see it you can get a different response. However, understand this.
1. You can probably forget any personal data that's stored on it. Photos, downloads, music, etc. Just to prepare you.
2. You probably have a corrupted bootloader partition. How it happens, with a normally functioning tab, nobody really knows.
You can try doing a data wipe. Usually we would wait till you get an SD card, but I'm curious if you can get anything on the display. To do this, with the tablet off, Press and hold PWR, while at the same time, continiously cycle your rotation lock left and right, quickly until you see "erasing user data" or something similar on the display.
Another thing, manually put it into APX mode. This involves using a paper clip, and press and hold the "reset" button near the USB port, then press and hold PWR. Count to 4 and release PWR, and 1 second later release the paperclip. Then plug your tablet into the PC, and see if the PC loads the drivers for it. You should already have installed the Acer USB drivers. If not, get them from the Acer site.
Understand, your chances of getting it going again, are less than 50/50. But, we all will give it a shot.
MD
This is exactly the situation I'm in... Black screen, White power light...
I was in the middle of an app, when tablet rebooted, wouldn't boot back up..
I was able to get into CWM recovery... investigated, and found that /system wouldn't mount... So, I was prepared to re-flash, so I first went to do a nandroid backup of my data folder... I also had an old nandroid backup, so I decided to restore that... After I did that, I couldn't even get into recovery anymore...
I've tried setting my tablet into apx mode, and trying to flash, but they always seem to freeze at "uploading image" (both with afterota unbrick and blackthund3r's tool)
Now, blackthund3r's tool will actually get the acer logo to show up, with "Entering download mode...", so that leads me to think the tablet isn't completely shot? It just gets stuck during the upload image...
Tried the erasing data as suggested by MD, but no luck, just black screen...
What is the sdcard method that you are speaking of? Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks in advance
---------
Edit:
Tried placing update.zip on sdcard for flashing, tried turning on the tablet with volume down...No joy
Hopefully someone has some other ideas for me? Thanks again in advance.

Edit 2:
After a day of searching, finally came across this post.
Fixed and saved my tablet... Whew!
Today I was finally able to get my phone rooted, install SafeStrap and get into TouchWiz. Thing is, I dislike TouchWiz so I downloaded CyanogenMod for note 3. I put the CyanogenMod zip in my downloads folder on my Note 3. I went into safestrap, clicked install, found the .zip and swiped to flash. After that finished I clicked reboot and I got black screened. I then took the battery out and then the **** hit the fan. I booted the device and the SafeStrap splash screen came up along with the stock bootloader android bot image and my screen was displaying all of these colors and tripping acid. I now have taken the battery out and am hoping I can save my device. For some information on the device, It's a Galaxy Note 3 on Verizon running 4.4.2 rooted. I cant even get into ODIN mode... I've been getting tons of views and no reply's so that's leading me to believe it's something major. If it is please don't be afraid to respond and if you need a clearer explanation please PM me so I can get this fixed. I need my phone for work and I picked a really bad time to start tinkering with my phone haha. Thank you so much for reading! :cyclops:
No sure but it sounds like you hard bricked your device ( no acces to download/odin mode or recovery).
"my screen was displaying all of these colors and tripping acid" sounds like a display error.
Put in the battery and keep trying to acces odin mode if the screen is working ( Hold power + home button + volume down) .

What should I do if that doesn't work? I've tried a few times already but I'll keep going at it. The screen has now shifted from "Tripping acid" to a white fuzzyish screen that shows the SafeStrap splashscreen kind of outlined.
Have you tried to boot into recovery? That is assuming you have a backup saved.
Put battery in...hold down power, volume up and home key...when you see Samsung logo let go of the power key only...hopefully it might boot into recovery. Just one idea...

OMG I GOT INTO RECOVERY!! I did make a back up but I did it in SafeStrap. It dropped me in the default BootLoader with a dead android with its chest opened up. Idk if this means something haha.
If it won't let you load the backup, you might could use kies software on a desktop or notebook to recover you device back to stock. Just another idea. Sometimes with enough persistence you can recover a semi bricked device. I sure hope you get it going. A messed up phone will make you pull your hair out....

You must clarify if you can get into download (Odin) mode:
- if you can not there is some major flash corruption going on, not much you can do
- if you can get into download mode you need to write your stock ROM.
