Hi pal
I have an Asus Transformer TF300TG 4.2.1 and I successfully unlocked and root it. it was working good and I decieded to wipe my data from recovery when I did it my pad didn't boot up into rom... and stucked in Asus logo and nvidia tegra mark. and also when I turn the pad on usuing (volume down + power) it goes automaticly to cwm and I can't see that three options (RCK, Android, Wipe Data) anymore. my bad is... I was running an openrecovery-twrp.blob but I flashed a CWM to see if I can re wipe the pad but it says:
Can't mount system
Can't mount external sd
Can't mount sd
.
.
.
Please help me or tell me something that makes a little hope for me
I'm realy disquiet...
Hello,
The above will work only if you are able to access the FastBoot commands, in most of the cases we are facing we have access only to the APX mode (Reset + Vol up) not FastBoot (Reset + Vol Down.).
Thanks for sharing your findings though, hopefully if any one was able to recover his TF300T or TF700T from APX mode to share his findings also...
I suggest you follow up on this Thread:

Bricked tf201 prime
Many Thanks to Buster99
I had mine transformer prime tf 201 bricked. unrecoverble bootloader. i did al the steps and now i have at least no unrecoverble boor loader and i got twrp running again.
I waited at leat half a year for this solution.
Many Many thanks i am going to download a custom rom and see what happens.
Update : It is running perfect again thanks it is unbricked. And asus told me to pay €365,- for a new motherboard.
i knew it was a mather of time.

I was already going to pay for the new motherboard
Thank you so much ! I've already lost any hope to "revive" my device, but you came with your simple yet usefull guide as a "savior of all unfortunate TF300 owners" !

YOU ARE AMAZING! I had the unrecoverable bootloader error, but I could still use fastboot, and it works!!! Confirmed on the TF201!!
TF300T Bricked accessible using APX Mode.
@Buster99
The above will work only if you are able to access the FastBoot commands.
In my case i can access only to the APX mode (Reset + Vol up), I cant access the FastBoot (Reset + Vol Down.).
I flashed everything FastBoot flashall, so now I have the TF300T ASUS logo now.
The above doesnt work with me, any suggestions how to UNBRICK my ASUS TF300T starting from APX mode???

those have all to do with apx mode.
sadly i don't really recall how i got out of apx mode
- sorry.good luck

your guide is great but you should (if you want) to insert the string -i 0x0b05 after the item fastboot

You Are the MANNNN!!!!!!!
This saved my TAB!!!!. I followed the steps to the letter. I tried everything else before i tried your method i even tried reaching out to TWRP channel but that didn't help. This was awesome find. How did you find out these commands? i didn't even know you could manually type them in fastboot.

so i can prevent this from happening again, does anybody know if you use this method to flash to stock ICS blob, will this restore the bootloader so i can use NVFLASH??? that is the $$$ question.
if not is there a way to erase the bootloader and restore it to ics, so we can use NVFLASH??

This should definitely be put in a spot for all who have this scenario. It fixed mine also. So happy! Thanks for your hard work.
Thank you Buster. I have now got my TF300T back to normal again. I was about to give up but your method worked.
I had to do it twice - first time I didn't use "erase misc". Second time worked. Thanks again!

165My solution
I have the same on my TF300t and A700 - but it seems i just managed to get my TF300t back
i tried all fastboot (reflashing recovery, boot, system etc) no dice - especially since writing system was done after 3 secs all the time.
Here how i restored my TF300T JB
download your appropriate lates firmware from Asus (WW, US etc.) and extract the zip twice so you have your blob file
install your device drivers if needed (i used Google SDK ones) (and as a Tip Win8 sucks for Fastboot stuff so try to get Win7 Vista XP for this)
Reset your device with a paperclip/needle (about 2 cm down of your sdcard slot) and hold vol-down to enter fastboot
(the folowing i did at least 10 times already but didn't erase misc)
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\TF300t\blob (this is my path - your's may vary depending where you stored your blob) ((also this was the first time i saw the loading bar while flashing)*
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
* it also took a lot longer as it should:
C:\>fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\TF300t\blob
erasing 'system'...
OKAY [ 1.695s]
sending 'system' (800935 KB)...
OKAY [133.121s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [153.973s]
finished. total time: 288.789s
im now setting my tab up to get back to CM (which initially caused this sh1theap due to autoupdate error, same as my A700 got bricked )
hope i could help you out!
cheers
-Buster61st this is not for the dev section. You should ask questions in the Q&A section.
Go to Asus and dl the latest Stock. Unzipp it 2 times. You should have a blob file now in the extracted folder. put this blob in your fastboot folder.
Open cmd and type:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob
let it run. It seems that nothing is happening for about 5 Minutes. The whole thing can take up to 20 Minutes, so just stay calm and wait till its finished.
Now you should be back to full Stock with Stock recovery.3
This can be an annoying problem and you may have to try several driver packages, uninstall them if they don't work and try other ones. The drivers from the Asus PC Suite were for Windows XP. They may and may not work anymore - depends on your Windows version.
As you found out, you want to stay away from all these driver downloads sites - they are usually infested with malware.
You could try the Universal Naked Drivers from here: https://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/development/adb-fb-apx-driver-universal-naked-t2513339
I believe those are the ones I used when I moved to Win 8 and then Win 10. If you have the 64 bit version of Win 8 or 10 you have to disable Windows driver verification feature to install them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71YAIw7_-kg
Oh my... You do need to get adb working, I know only of one way to get out of that loop and it involves a couple of steps in adb. Check out this guide: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...my-transformer-tf700-boots-only-recovery.html
Somebody recently used this method to get out of the loop and he had only a few seconds connection in adb to perform the steps described. He created a script to run the two commands in that tiny window. Let me try to find the posts, maybe I can hook you up with him.
Edit: Here it is, last post: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf700/help/tf700t-bootloop-twrp-install-official-t3584529
Try to PM @andyf@n, maybe he can send you the script he created2
Did your tablet seem to freeze after flashing via fastboot? When I push blob, the console shows that it wrote, but then fastboot on the tablet freezes & I have to manually reboot, putting me right back to the drawing board.
