Unhappy [Q]Help think i'm bricked!

Hello,

Need some help! or maybe got to find $400 for a new transformer if it's bricked .

Seem to bee stuck on and Eee Pad start up screen. I can boot up with volume down and get to a Droid lying on it's back with a red exclamation mark by using the up volume or to wipe data or Andoid with letting it start up holding down volume. But never any further

Basically I was trying to downgrade and to .17 and it seems to not have liked me I guess! Still not sure when I went wrong.

Is this bricked or is there something I'm missing? Thank you in advance for any help or info even if it's bad news I guess!

What method did you use to downgrade? Do you have and SD Card on the device with a blob file?

I have an Sd card in the device but i put the blob file in the root directory of my tablet, is that where I went wrong? Can I put a new blob on the SD card or did I mess that part up?

I used the 2nd method of Wolf's ultimate flash and downgrade guide.

Hmmm what was the last step you tried of Wolf's method? Remember it takes like 10 mins for it to completely downgrade. Did you use the one click version of wolf's downgrade? If you connect the tablet to your PC does it get recognized while it is stuck on boot? If you are able to access the internal sdcard try removing the blob file and rebooting.

So the last step I reached was step 9 for below

8. Once rebooted you will see ASUS EeePAD flashing progress bar. Be patient and wait till the end.
9. Tablet will reboot itself and start loading new system. (as it is first boot it may take few minutes)
10. Be happy from your new firmware.

I have left it for way over 10 minutes and it still stuck on the Eee Pad screen.

The main sticking point is that it doesn't recognize that anything is plugged in on the computer so I can't change or remove the Blob file which is why I think I bricked it. Without having access to the Tablet not sure how I can do anything.

Is there any different ways to boot it except with the volume down option?

Hmmm I guess you could try to see if adb recognizes the tablet while it is in the loading screen. I'm not an expert on adb though.
