Power off power on if it doesn't go to stock is, boots static to same screen or boots to black screen. Hold the power for 30 seconds then power on when you see the white kindle blue fire quickly depress the power button a few times till you get a boot menu. Select either normal boot or reset Bootmode while Will take you to the stock is or boot to black screen. If it boots to black screen repeat process of holding power button 30 second and this time select recovery if it boots to recovery you can mount your sdcard and transfer a rom.zip and gapps.zip , unmount, wipe everything except your sdcard/external storage. Then select install flash rom.zip, flash gapps.zip select reboot then system if prompted or reboot system. If none of this is good boots to black screen or fails to boot to recovery your shell is missing or broken and no recovery was installed. Then purchase a factory cable that will force it into fastboot and use kfu to send twrp to the device and use the above instructions to replace your damaged system. I know sorry slot to swallow your biggest jeopardy right now it the battery dying power it off with a 30 second hold if it will be some time before you get to it or leave it plugged it to the stock wall charger off is the best bet "IF" it is indeed off. Good luck.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitaIis:
Have been researching this topic for a long time and I dont see any solutions other than sending it to the HTC.

Symptoms:

No boot at all (unable to get into recovery , boot menu etc)

When I try to turn the phone on (using power button) I get 7 vibrations and a blinking red led light(sometimes), nothing else. (the screen is dark, the only response from phone is those 7 vibrations and led)

If I try to boot it with power button and volume key , I get the response mentioned above.

If I plug the phone into the computer I dont get ANY response from the computer or from the phone. If I try to plug it into the charger I get 7 vibrations and constant led light.

Battery is good. Had this phone for 2+ years, no water damage, not rooted. Had been factory reset few months ago.

Basically I was walking, wanted to check my time, pulled out my phone from my pocket and it was turned off. Tried booting it and get the symptons above.

EDIT: after I try to boot the phone and experience those symptoms, the phone doesnt respond to anything.

The only way to get 7 vibrations back(excluding led - sometimes it stays on/blinks after vibratons) is to pull the battery out and try to boot it again.

Thanks.

sticky keys

This happened to me, I repaired it by cleaning the volume terminals and keyboards. My DZ died on me when I was doing field work and it is hot that day. I guess that some how sweats has sipped its way in the inside of the unit and when it evaporated left the salts causing the keys to short out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
Wanted to get an idea from the group on options here:

Have seen quite a few postings on the issues with JB on the TF201 and how limited that makes things. Currently have a Gnexus phone running cyanogenmod 10 and really like it; started wondering what interesting features that rom might bring to the TF201.

So, first question is can any roms such as the CY10 even be installed given the JB limitations?

If so, are the benefits gained from custom roms worth whatever headaches are involved with the currently upgrade processes.

I am heading out on a deployment in about 6 days so access to pull down upgrade files will obviously be limited. Won't be returning to the US until the Sept timeframe, so definitely a needed decision on if anything can/should be done for improvements (to play with of course!) during the deployment.

I have the weekend to tinker but wanted to ask whether I'm better off just keeping the device as-is or putting in the time for possible upgrade steps.

Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trophx:
Hey militarymedic23,

There are definitely ROMs that can be installed currently, however most are unofficial ports from either a different device (TF700) or ported to the JellyBean bootloader (current OFFICIAL CM10 runs on ICS bootloader and will fail on updated JellyBean bootloader).

After experimenting with unofficial ports of CM10 (4.1), CM10.1 and JellyBeer (Android 4.2), I honestly recommend sticking to stock JellyBean as of right now. These ROMs, although offering a lot of customizations, are not "done" yet. There are many little bugs on each (ex: JellyBeer rom doesn't show dock battery, uses mobile mode aka. single pane, for play store, etc etc.) and although by itself doesn't take too much away from the experience, does tend to bother me over time.

It is these small bugs that I wouldn't recommend changing over from stock. A lot of the Asus features also missing (I really enjoy being able to change CPU modes from navigation menu-- which is a missing feature, for example). Also, assuming you already upgraded to the JellyBean bootloader, official CM10 ports DO NOT work, so you're getting unofficial ports.

Overall, I don't mind stock, and as long as you ROOT, you can go ahead and remove all the ASUS bloatware to get a pretty clean tablet experience. I also didn't find any performance enhancements after upgrading from stock (which I expected). I can include some pictures of stock vs unofficial CM10 benchmarks upon request.

My personal recommendation, due to the fact you will be deployed (so not sure if you'll have all the time to always flash the newest upgrades) is to continue with stock for now. The last thing you want is to be stuck with a buggy firmware without any way to update and restore. This way you can still receive OTA updates from Asus, which from my experience has been pretty timely (If you are out of the country, using an app like Hotspot Shield may help you get an OTA update if it isn't accessible from your current region).

Hope this helps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
Hi trophx, thanks for the input on this. I do agree that overall the stock software isn't actually that bad. In comparison to my phone, CM10 does give a nice assortment of features over the stock so I was thinking it might also do the same for the tablet. But for all of what I plan to be using the tablet for while deployed, keeping a stable release would eliminate one possible headache!

On a last note; I have seen other posts that mention some tablets have dropped by the wayside in terms of developers focusing on them vs the latest and greatest fresh meat hitting the market. Do you think the TF201 is among those tablets that probably won't be having things like CM written specifically for them?

Thanks again
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trophx:
The difference between the phone and THIS particular tablet is that the added dock functionality which is built into ASUS' stock firmware (which means support for a all dock keys-- screenshot, volume, brightness, lock, etc.--, USB, SDslot, etc.). This makes it different from almost all other tablets/phones in terms of how to get the best user experience. To address your point, the added functionality of CM10, for example, isn't THIS tablet specific, thus not as appealing in my opinion (just because of the instability of the build as of now). Although there definitely are a lot of added features-- very similar to all your phone features. But as I said before, I'd probably prefer stability over extra functionality at this time.

To your second point, I'm not sure. I certainly hope that development continues. On the plus side the similarity of this device to its siblings (tf300t and tf700) makes porting software across each device easier (One of the CM10 dev threads is a port from tf700). Currently CM does officially support the tf201, however, they haven't worked out the issues with the new JB bootloader, and doesn't seem to be too high on their priorities list. On another plus note, ASUS has been pretty quick about shipping out new firmware updates.

Hope this helps
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
I'd suggest Androwook 1.51. It's stock based so you get all the Asus compatibility with tweaks and performance out the @$$. It's definitely a lot better than stock and more stable/faster than AOSP based roms like CyanogenMod unofficial ports.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
hmm, that androwook does look interesting. And you say that it pretty much adds to the base functionality without taking away any of the prime/keyboard specifics? I did a bit of searching on it and saw that many people like it and are awaiting 4.2 to be pushed out so the 1.51 -> 2.0 can go forward. Any rough timeline floating around on that?

Also, considering I will be overseas and on a limited connectivity basis, can anyone point out issues with 1.51 that would be a problem in this scenario?

Since my prime is completely untouched in the sense of no unlocking or rooting, is there a specific guide recommended, start to finish, for getting this loaded? Some of the articles I read seemed to expect a few steps to be done already. Messed around with my phone without too much problem but I get a bit edgy with wanting the exact process for the tf201. I bought it over a year ago now so the unlocking shouldn't be an issue with the one year warranty now expired, but I guess I'm more concerned on making sure I don't brick it!!! Currently use TWRP for my phone, and if that is installed on the tf201 would that allow a full restore back to the current image that is running right now (in case of whatever issue rendering it problematic)?

Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trophx:
Yep-- for the most part. Since I don't believe you can use NVFlash (this can recover almost all bricks) on already Asus's OTA jelly bean bootloader, TWRP is next best option. I've been flashing and restoring and such for a few months now and no issues. Just be sure to READ very very carefully because the JB bootloader is very different from the ICS one, and (Cyanogenmod for example) some only support one-- installing the wrong one can brick your device permanently.

Ps. I don't want to seem like I'm recommending Stock over other roms in most scenarios, just in yours with limited connectivity, and I don't know how much time you'll have to mess around with a comp, and backing up your device and what not. I just think OTA updates from Asus is the easiest way to go.

**Androwook is extremely stable and super fast. It is exactly as McJesus15 said, based off Asus's rom-- I didn't know if you were asking about those too, because it doesn't offer the same tweaking and system settings CM10 or AOKP offer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tweeny80:
Hi guys, I'll throw in my 2 cents ... Mr medic u should unlock and flash Androwook. The McJesus poster above wrote a newbie guide that I followed and had success with, glitch free. I had been fully stock and read heaps before taking the plunge. You seem the type to read 1st act 2nd so ... no drawbacks. All Asus stock options remain available and Androwook uses an installer that gives you choices every step of the way.

Good luck.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
Thanks for the additional feedback. Certainly am interested in the wooky version, but have a few questions on the process McJesus wrote.

The first would be an obvious download and run the unlocker (warranty buster) from Asus, and the second; that is more of an optional?

And per the instructions it seems once unlocked then doing the pwr_volume combo will allow the bootloader to see the SDcard contents of the wooky image?

Might be bordering on the paranoid level of doublechecking, but definitely can't afford to accidently brick this a day before shipping out!

Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
Alright I'll take care of ya before you ship out. Good luck and God bless you.

NVflash is a utility that can only be used while you are on Ice Cream Sandwich. Since you are on Jelly Bean there is currently no way to do the process.

Unlocking your Prime is easy. Just use the app provided on the Asus website. Understand that your warranty is now void (not like Asus intended to do much for you anyways). Once you are unlocked use the automated utility in my guide to easily flash TWRP. It's not the latest version but I haven't had time to update my post. It's perfectly fine for your uses.

Once that's done just flash Androwook either by putting the .zip file on an external SD card or the internal storage of the Prime. Once you begin the process and start selecting options the rom is basically totally customizable for you. One suggestion I will make is when selecting the kernel go with Clemsyn's 1.7ghz custom kernel as it literally is the biggest performance boost you could possibly do for your Transformer Prime. If you need any help you can message me privately or ask in the Androwook thread. The guys there are genius's. Hope we helped you get your Prime in working order before you deploy.

Oh, also, when you first boot into recovery I suggest making a back up immediately. Always have a back up handy and I personally keep 2-3 rom zips on my Prime for the SHTF moment.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
Thank you!

I actually started tinkering around with the unlocker just before you posted. Unlocked it fine, and put TWRP on it and did a full backup of stock. I did pull down the 1.51 wooky image and put it on. I guess after working with CM10 I was expecting all the fancy changes but so far I can't tell the difference between stock and androwook.

I did also try and put the Wooky Prime 2.1 image but the tablet would just sit on the asus logo and not go anywhere. Can you advise what major differences should be noticed between 1.51 and prime 2.1?

Thanks

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
it was buried fairly well, but here is the link:

http://www.teambamf.net/topic/3986-rom040712-androwook-prime-v21-complete-rom-customization/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Ahh, sorry mate but that is really old. That was when the rom was based on ICS. When it turned to jellybean it became hairybean and went back to version 1.

1.51 is the latest.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
oh, no worries though. Since it was hanging at startup I went back to 1.51.

Is there a rough rumor when JB 4.2 might be coming out and HB goes up a version? It will of course be while I'm away but if I know a general date then I can try and watch for it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trophx:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the AndroWook rom is based of OTA releases from Asus, so it probably won't have JB 4.2 unless something along those lines comes out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
of course but I was just curious if anyone has heard if a major version change or new version of android scheduled to be released in the next 6 months.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trophx:
Oh no idea-- Asus said they would be supporting 4.2 back in November, but it'll probably take a bit. It isn't a Nexus after all. But so far I've been pretty satisfied with their software updates in terms of speed of release and quantity.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] militarymedic23:
I'm in big rush considering where I'll be, so I'll just keep an eye out.

Actually, does AW 1.51 have an updater built in so I would see when a new release is up or is it a manual check?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
It's manual. I don't know if they'll be able to include an OTA updater like CM has
