Hey y'all.
My father was messing around with his TF201 and decided to hit "wipe all data" while in recovery mode and it has been bricked ever since. All I know is that he had rooted it and unlocked the bootloader. Apparently he didn't want to fess up to bricking his present and now he doesn't remember what else he had done to it or what exactly he did to brick it. Normally I would keep my nose out of this, but he told me I could sell it if I got it back in working order, and I have had such issues with fixing it that this has become a personal challenge.
I can't get the tablet to turn off and it only boots as far as the Asus splash screen with "this device is unlocked" in the upper left corner and the nvidia logo in the bottom right corner. Whenever I try to power down the tablet it re-boots as far as the splash screen. My computer isn't recognizing it, adb isn't recognizing it when I enter adb devices, and I cant get the tablet to turn off or go into fastboot. I tried updating the drivers on my computer, letting the battery die and recharge a few times, and using the reset button, all with no change.
Unfortunately, I think I am a little out of my depth here. I was hoping I would be able to push a new rom on it via adb and hopefully un-do whatever he did, but it looks like I was incorrect.
If anyone has tips on how to enter fastboot, how to get adb to recognize the device, or how to get the tablet back to factory I would be crazy appreciative! I have gone through most of the similar threads, but none of their fixes seem to be working for me.
Thanks!
