[Q] Update Bricked my Transformer Prime - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I updated the firmware this morning and it looked like it had worked but then there was an explanation point in the notification bar saying there was an update available. I clicked the icon and everything froze. I tried to power off but it froze at the confirmation screen. I held the power button down with the volume down button to reset and it just took me to a page with gears and an orange explanation point. i did the data wipe with the same result. I did the reset button with a paperclip and same result. I downloaded the update onto a micro SD card and did the data wipe and was told by ASUS it would install the update from the SD but still nothing. I cant figure anything out, if anyone has suggestions or any similar problems let me know.

This is the thread you are looking for -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423503
Hope you fix it...

mine got bricked too. called Asus and they walked me through the factory reset process to no avail. they want me to send mine back to be fixed

I just RMA'd mine. I hope they dont release a do it from home fix because i have to wait about 3 weeks most likely til i get it back. what a bunch of b*ttholes.

the OTA updates launched me into a perpetual reboot loop. i tried letting the battery drain all the way down but it didn't stop it once I powered back up the next day.
ASUS phone tech's want me to send it in for service, but before I send it I am hoping that someone has another solution I can try.

Have you tried holding power and N for 30 secs then trying to power on ??
If its not battery dead you might have to factory rest
I have done that...still dead...
Sorry 'bout previous response, not up to speed on forum posting... I have left pluggedin overnight...no difference...
I will try the power n sequence suggestion and let y'all know what happened...
Thanks all for the help, appreciate your time and effort!

If that does not work then boot into CWM using the sdcard method and start from there. There are CWM backups and to restore 1.4.0 already rooted and with apps. Read my FAQ in the CWM issues section. Link in my signature.

OK, tried the power N, no success... Just want to be clear, the nook is completely dead. no screen life whatsoever... the power indicator on the power cord connection is green but when I try and power up nothing...absolutely black screen, no flicker nada, zero signs of life...will trying a sdcard solution help in that situation?
Thanks again for you time!!
Is your SD card still in? Have you tried taking it out of the nook and holding power for 3 seconds?
Edit: I realized that response seemed very odd. So, with or without the SD card in you should still be able to boot past the black N screen and get to the initial boot animation. I would suggest rather than just holding the power button for 3 seconds try just holding it and eventually it will, or should, actually boot to the initial screen.

I have the same problem with a nook tablet that I rooted for my brother. When I shut it down, it never powered back up. It is dead as a doornail. Very, very, very frustrating. I tried every key combination to try to get it to power up. Nothing works, Holding N+power for 30 secs didn't work. Holding vol down + power also didn't work. It's just dead. BN won't accept an exchange without a receipt. I can't believe this thing is dead after only a few weeks. I also tried charging it to full to a green light, still didn't work.
I have had a similar problem where the screen will not respond or turn on. Turned out to be the SD card. If I removed it, the tablet would respond right away. I now have a 32G San Disk and so far no problems.
Hi All, just wanted to circle back for an update... No change in situation, but have decided to give it a go with the warranty process, opted for the standard service with no CC info provided...figured with that route I couldn't be charged for the repair...worst case they won't fix it...Its dead to me now anyway.... will let y'all know whatsup when I hear from B&N or get the unit back...
thanks again for the comments and suggestions!
If you think a bootloader sucks, Just try the warranty process...
Just wanted to give an update, it had been over a week since I had sent the unit in; so I decided to give a ring and find out what's up... It seemed like I was the first person to ever do that, took forever to finally get an answer. I was informed that yes they had got it a week ago, but that it would take another week before the warehouse got to it...I should hear something then...
I have a annual BN Member Card, buy books there all the time, but I will never give them another penny of my money.... If only amazon put out something with and SD card slot...
Why is that such a hard spec?
Anyway, just wanted to give an update...
Best,
well hopefully it all works out

[Q] my.phones issue.

For the last two days my phone has been anything off at random... nothing has been changed... I'm on the cm9 nightly from the two days ago... this is the thing tho... If I gentely tap the phone it will shut off or shake it... so I figured maybe after time the batter is lose... but it also is turning off if it sits completely still...unless its playing music. It has not turned off since Round 8 ad I have just had it playing music this full time ...any ideas??
I already did a full wipe and re install and when I get home I'm going to Oden back to stock and redo everything.

My only suggestion at this point is odin back to stock 2.1.
Unfortunately this sounds like symptoms of hardware failure. I had a phone (cliq) which would do the exact thing as you described...the phone would vibrate shut off and reboot unexpectedly. I would open the physical keyboard and it would also shut off...this is totally hardware related from my understanding. But that is the worst case scenario.
Hopefully it is a software related issue in your case. Not much else i can say.

Overclocked? Voltages changed at all from default? If you have anything set in voltage control or setcpu, get rid of them and try it. You could also try booting into recovery and see if you can reproduce the problem. That should also help determine if it is software or hardware related.
If the phone is plugged in it does not seem to reboot. i have not had time to mess with it i will check it out this weekend. Weird because it only seems to be doing this at work? I have not had it restart on me at all while at home.
Also if i have the music playing it will not turn off. This weekend im going to oden back to stock and see how it goes. otherwise gonna try to deal with it long enough till the gs3 comes out, ha.

Help Needed - Galaxy S3 Not Switching On

Hi - I'm using a Galaxy S3 right now and it's not powering on at all. Battery is guaranteed not empty as it has been on charge all morning. It's rooted and running SuperNexus - I9300 - BUILD 4.
I can't even get into download mode - tried powering on with volume keys held up and/or down along with home key and power key but no luck
I've called Samsung and they will take it away for warranty repair but my worry is if they know it's rooted - will they refuse to fix it?
I'm clutching at straws but has anyone got any other suggestions I could try?
I imagine you already tried this, but when it happened to me last, I simply took the battery out for a few and put it back in, then it fired up. Has only happened to me once though.

yeh it's been out for a few minutes. Maybe i should try it for a little while longer.
One thing I forgot to mention is that sometimes I would pick up the phone to look at something and the screen would be blank but the soft keys would be lit up. The only way to get the screen back was to keep the power button pressed down for 10 seconds or so so that it switched off and then back on.
This is what happened this time - but only this time it's refusing to come back on

There's a known issue with some devices having problems with this in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1993044
But if your device was starting to have problems before... maybe it wasn't related to motherboard but something else, maybe even software related... But still, if the device is not powering at ALL you should be good with samsung, as they will just replace the motherboard and thats all (at least some ppl had it repaired even rooted and with CM installed on the thread I linked above.
Good luck and share your adventure with the SAT (if you finally send it there) on the other post
If your in the eu then rooting your phone won't affect the warranty. It's been confirmed a few times in the thread posted above. It sounds to me like another mother board failure.

[Q] Help! New Galaxy S Advance Bricked After ODIN Upgrade!

Hi People of the world! As you can see im new to here so yeah i just might be in the wrong section...
So, I just got my shiny android a week ago, and know it sits on my desk, lifeless, like a brick. Like literally its dead! I don't know if I can fix it or the BIOS (if theres one in Samsung Galaxies) is fried, or maybe the motherboard is fried, or the battery overcharged, etc. But I just cant do anything! I'm totally out of ideas!
Heres the problem, I first rooted my android successfully, and played around with my android a while. But as you expect I just coudn't wait for the jelly bean update! So, I desided I would give a try to take the Russian firmware instead. That was already a bad idea, but I read on some threads that it would work fine, so I downloaded one from Sammobile.com. The real mistake? I downloaded the wrong phone. I own a Samsung Galaxy S Advance NFC Version;GT-I9070P The one I downloaded was UnNFC version; GT-I9070. Well, I didn't realize that, and proceeded with entering download mode and eventually flashing the PDA file from Sammobile with ODIN. So I pressed start. It started the process, and after 5 min it said in blue: RESET. I saw the phone rebooting. Now, another big mistake: I started touching the power button, which I shouldn't have done. Then, instead of waiting, as soon as seeing the thing wasnt booting, I took out the battery and unplugged the USB cable. Then after a while the PASS appeared in green. So it went successfully? NONONO Now it wont boot! More specifically, it wont TURN ON! like it wont whow any sign of life. As if it had no battery or USB.
Today I discovered, If I hold Vol UP+Power+Home when its connected to my PC, it makes the beep, shows that it failed to install the driver for "U8500 USB ROM" What the (*^&(&%*(&^&* is that??? Also, in 5 seconds, the device disappears, meaning that I must hold the button combo for another 20 seconds.
So, I've got no connectivity to ODIN, nor Kies, and I cant go into download mode, nor recovery mode.
Any Help?
Pleeaase if you can help youre a super god of androids!
ok, so if I understand correctly, You can't even turn on a phone - no samsung logo, no yellow triangle, nothing, right?

Exactly. Nothing at all.
The only evidence that its not fried is that the computer detects it as U8500 USB ROM for 5 seconds whenever i hold the power button or any combination. Nothing on the phone though.

Ikr its really bad to break your phone as soon as i get it. Worse, for me its a few of days to my birthday! Worse thing that could happen. I will PM you if i happen to find a good solution. Also, to make it really the worst thing, the GT-I9070 is one of the less popular phones (not like the s3). The NFC version? Even rarer! So not only are there not many developers working for that phone, not many people have really encountered problems with the phone at all.

Please help! I also bricked my Samsung S Advance I9070P after downgrading from JB to GB, since JB was updated for India I9070...but the phone bricked after downgrade. Everything was successful and it had auto-rebooted after the downgrade and stuck with Start up screen. When I removed battery and tried again..it bricked! No recovery mode, No download mode, no power on.

[Q] Anyone else had to soft reset their device?

So this is probably the 3rd thread I've made for this device.
After returning my first Z2, I got this one a few (maybe 4 to 5) days ago and now I'm having issues with it. First time, the screen froze at my lock screen pattern entry; no response whatsoever but the LED light was blinking as I had a notification. I had to hold volume up + power button to soft reset. In the same day (today) I've just had to reset it again for the second time but this time, the power button would not wake the screen! No matter what I clicked, it would not work so I had to press volume up + power again till it vibrated 3 times and reset. I'll be going back to return the phone tomorrow and getting my third Z2! Anyone else having issues or anyone have any ideas as to why it's/what is happening?
Thanks in advance for any responses
EDIT: Are there any built in logs I can have a look at or anything of that sort to determine what went wrong?

Is your phone bone stock at the moment? (locked BL, no root, stock rom, stock kernel)
I had the issue initially - the phone wouldn't wake up a couple of times a day and I'd have to soft reset. But I was rooted with a custom kernel, etc. and learning to use the tools for Sony phones (coming from Samsung phones). But now it's perfectly stable. In my case, I suspect it was a combination of how I was flashing things,etc.
Otherwise, completely stock, i don't recall the phone freezing. Have you done a complete wipe and repair via SUS or PC Companion?

Hey, yeah the phone is pure stock. I've not messed around with the software nor downloaded anything I shouldn't have. I've not done a complete wipe and repair but I'm thinking about factory resetting. Obviously this is not a hardware issue but I don't want to have to keep resetting my phone twice a day because that is stupid. Hopefully it was a one off and I guess I'm not too bothered but I may go in store tomorrow and just see if they will replace it. Silly reason to do so, I know, but I guess I'm within my rights if the phone isn't working properly. What do you think?

I only bought it a few days ago and manufacturer's warranty is 12 months here I think I'll keep it and see if a firmware update helps because it is perfect hardware wise and I won't be happy if they give me a new one and it has gaps etc. Would you happen to know if the new update helps with the camera/overheating issue?

Haha, to think I'm gonna be working for them next month! Yeah I'll have to record all problems from now until them give me a working phone. I saw the .402 OTA was available from today in Europe so I'll wait for that to roll out before making any rash decisions about returns

So this is probably the 3rd thread I've made for this device.
After returning my first Z2, I got this one a few (maybe 4 to 5) days ago and now I'm having issues with it. First time, the screen froze at my lock screen pattern entry; no response whatsoever but the LED light was blinking as I had a notification. I had to hold volume up + power button to soft reset. In the same day (today) I've just had to reset it again for the second time but this time, the power button would not wake the screen! No matter what I clicked, it would not work so I had to press volume up + power again till it vibrated 3 times and reset. I'll be going back to return the phone tomorrow and getting my third Z2! Anyone else having issues or anyone have any ideas as to why it's/what is happening?
Thanks in advance for any responses
EDIT: Are there any built in logs I can have a look at or anything of that sort to determine what went wrong?

I was having issues with mine freezing especially while using the camera.

Ah man. In a way I'm glad to see I'm not alone at least! For some reason mine is mostly random but I've kind of noticed it happens after I pull the charger out. Have you tried to go in and exchange it? If it's the camera causing it, it seems easily reproducible.

Hey Shaf, sorry to bother you mate. I just don't understand what is wrong with this phone! My estimated time on with stamina mode is down to 1 day a few hours again. It is a brand new phone I only got it yesterday. Is it the way I am charging it or is it just buggy software? I don't have any apps I don't need and even tap to wake is off. The battery works normally I guess although it is draining a bit fast (5% in 20 minutes while using it) but I don't understand what could be causing this to happen!

It's happened to me once where the phone wouldn't switch on after sleeping, turned on after about 2mins, but only when I received my magnetic charger and started charging with it. Not sure if the magnetic charger is the problem since I only had that problem once and never happened since.
Are you charging it with a magnetic charger?

Did you manage to sort it out? No I'm using the standard charger provided but after charging it last night, the estimation of battery time in stamina mode has come down significantly. The estimation assumes stamina mode is not on but it is turned on in my notification bar. This time yesterday the estimate was at ~5 days.
