lemme guess odin? I was pretty bricked once. I took the sd card out. Plugged it to my computer (not wall) and held one for like 30-40 seconds and then pressed power and it magically booted into download mode. Just try that or the other way around. Worked for me. Good luck!
What were you doing with it when it got bricked?
Did u plug into computer while battery is out? Then try going into download mode?

yes.. and ill try it powda..
i was odin working on eg22plus, went to odin back to eg22 stock and it just immediately failed after md5 check, and wouldnt come back on... didnt even show to try to write anything.
Do you have a car dock or media dock. I was in a similar predicament once and all of the above failed to bring it back. Then I was on the way to the Sprint store to swap out when I put my Epic in the car dock (force of habit) and it magically booted to the screen with the pictures of the pc and phone. I was able to pull the battery and boot to download mode from there.

Did you push the power button repeatedly when battery was out to drain any leftover juice in the phone or is that just a myth?

Was that to me? I was just suggesting last ditch effort stuff for Chris to try since his phone was bricked. I would even try the pinhole by the camera under the battery cover. Nothing can hurt to try once you have tried all of the other tricks to get your phone back up.

Hi every one! Everything was ok with my GNote and for months with ics update. yesterday I tried to reboot it because the battery was empty after long time use. I connected the phone to the charger but nothing happens. I waited a few hours but nothing too. It does not pass to download mode and recovery mode too. I tried the battery on the GNote of my brother and it works and its battery does not help to boot up on my GNote. So the problem is on the phone. What is the solution please?
PS: i don't changed anything on the Gnote since Mounths
Thank you

Just a long shot, but is it a faulty battery connection on your device.
have you tried to flash another gb or ics rom?
Im guessing you run on stock ics, you could be superbricked if you deleted a big file from your phone, deleting big files could trigger the eMMC brick command. Just guessing here so i could be wrong.

Wrong.
Seems to be battery connection problem from your tests as it was said before. If your warranty is not void..should go for SAV.

i'll send it to SAV Later. Thanks for all of you
Have you tried charging your battery in your brothers note, and then placing it in yours? If your phone boots, then its a faulty connector issue.

If it was a faulty battery connection, as seems to be a consensus here, than your phone wouldn't boot at all; yet you say that you can reach Download and Recovery mode.
It's something else.

Hello, thanks for taking the time to read this topic. I just got home from a camp that I was at and one of the first things I wanted to do was play with my Kindle Fire, but I noticed that when I booted it up, it would not let me use the touch screen and the battery was at 0%. I then went to charge it for the night and again, no touch screen usage and 0% remaining. It seems like it is some kind of bootloop because after it turns itself off, the Kindle turns itself on again. I am rooted and running an older version of the JandyCane ROM. When I came home and first noticed that I had this problem, I was using Hashcode's latest JellyBean ROM, 7-13. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask me on this post or by pm'ing me. Thanks!
Plug it into the charger and hold down the power button until it shuts off. Then wait for a couple hours and check back on it.
thats where i would start
Thanks guys, totally worked Don't need to buy that new battery after all! Now I'll just be using Jandycane until Hashcode updates his ROM :laugh:

Make sure to update your FFF bootloader to 1.4a and TWRP to 2.1 or higher if you haven't done so already.

Well for some odd reason my 3G isn't functioning correctly. It randomly appears and disappear. Started happening after my last flash. If anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it. But for now no more flashing. Also I would appreciate to help out if anyone needs help.

Switched from ciscogee's rom to normal deodexed rom.. then put trailblazers mods cause I never really checked what all it had. and as soon as the phone booted up from flashing that's when the 3g started acting funny. but it's all good now. and no one to blame. just my mistakes.
Just wondered, cause I've had some random odd things going on...wifi not scanning/connecting, notifications not working, weather not updating, apps that did work fine fc'ing, earlier today my soft keys disappeared... they still worked just couldn't see them. Some times the phone runs like a Ferrari, sometimes like a pinto. Rebooting seems to fix it, or jump to another problem. Its almost like sometimes things don't get loaded correctly at boot. Not bad enough to make the phone unusable, but does have me scratching my head sometimes.

Hmm.. that's odd. the only problems I had was that my lockscreen wasn't showing even after I locked it and the whole 3g issue. The lockscreen problem didn't bother me much but the 3g one did. both fix themselves on their own. Rebooting does work. but also when it's booting up it's best to wait and let everything load instead of using it right away. But aside from this don't worry much. These bugs and error will go away soon as we get closer to our goal.

Oh, I'm not complaining! It's still MUCH better than Verizon had it!
Yeah, letting it boot and "settle in" is the way to go...still starts up a lot faster than stock. The only bug that really concerned me was the wifi. It only happened once, so probably just a fluke.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda app-developers app
The lockscreen won't show until you toggle the "disable lockscreen" or whatever it's called on and off in TSM parts ---> lockscreen... it'd be a good idea to also choose a lockscreen too, and pick one you like
And I figured out awhile ago why we have some problems, including weather syncing, ticker sleep settings, unsaved options for social network options in ticker options, ticker time delay nut saving, etc etc... it's because there aren't proper permissions given to the dbdata/databases/com.android.settings/tt_prefs or something like that I managed to fix it, and I can release a quick patch that fixes it, I just didn't know anyone else was having the issues, haha

While we're on the subject of odd stuff...anyone had an issue with when you plug in USB with the phone on/screen off the phone locks up? Doesn't matter if its the wall charger or connected to a computer. Have to pull the battery and reboot. If the screen is on or if the phone is off then everything works as it should.

Oh I know...I hope its not coming off like I'm complaining, cause I'm not. I like how the phone works now, there is a 0% chance of me going back to stock. Just putting it out there in case someone else has the same issue.
I'll try to get a log and see what's going on when it happens.

I noticed that my 3G will go out when I'm on wifi, however if wifi isn't connected to internet it will not automatically pick up the 3G. I would recommend if people continue to have problems look and see if toggling off wifi will help bring the network back online. Worked this problem and many others last night. Nearly "bricked" the unbrickable thankfully stayed calm and worked through each problem one at a time and soon will try and reflash CWM and then TB's mods for ec09.

I had this problem on my tf300t. I am running kitkat omnirom and cm11. I can run either.
The sleep of death was 100% caused by a faulty sd card. Not sure if it was file(s) or the card. Fixed the problem in both Omni and CM.
Backup your card to your computer.
Erase/Format it using the system you are on.
Verify that the SOD problem is gone.
That has happened several times to me too. Completely stock. Formatted about 3 weeks ago. Has not done it until just now. went to check it and it won't come on. Have to wait til I get home and put it on the charger. I just charged it last night. Maybe I didn't connect it right. Well update when I know for sure.

Ouch. $92 that's abit expensive. Perhaps you should had consider to topup abit more to get a new Memo FHD 16GB. It is about $250 at amazon.
I just got an email from Asus. I wil not pay $200 to repair an out of warranty tablet, when I can buy the exact same model from Frys for the same amount. They said the motherboard needs to be replaced. It took them one full week and 3 phone calls to get this quote in the first place. They told me that it was diagnosed on Feb 14.
I seriously doubt I will buy anything from Asus again. I was told that it would cost $92 to fix it. I will not spend that kind of money on an item that could break the minute I get it back as they do not even warranty their own repairs. This tablet was nice while I had it, but it was not the greatest either.
