Odin "Passes" but still can't boot...

Hi, my GSM Galaxy Nexus froze overnight, did a battery pull, got an "Encryption Unsuccessful" message, did the Factory Reset, and has been getting stuck during the boot. More info: Was running stock 4.04.
Can anyone please help with this? I'm new at flashing this sort of stuff.
Much thanks.

Don't you have a nandroid backup?
Which rom are you using?
Boot your phone in bootloader, hold volume down button while you power on the phone.
Select recovery with volume button and confirm.
Wipe everything and flash rom again.

Sorry man but there is no mentioning of accessing it by computer. You are probably using the wrong part. You want to use the 1. BOOT PROBLEMS section, which is in his second post.

Ehm
xda community is a place where expert people can surely help "noobies" ( not expert ) but you must PROVIDE more information, it's stupid and nosense write topic with only, i'm stuck here, help help me , it's like say "hey man, can you help me? ", other one:"what's your problem?" you: i don't know
You must be more specifical and objective
what's sense of "stuck" in fast boot mode, if your nexus "stuck" in fastboot can be badly driver ( personal experience ) , or remove battery and re-insert will fix it

Thank you for saying it. It can not be stressed enough how often questions like this show up in forums.
Tip to OP: provide details. What have you tried so far? Stuck as in it's non-responsive, or you don't know how to navigate your way back to a normal boot up?

I was so tensed when volume rocker and power key was not working! I was not knowing what to do! If I pull the battery,I thought will something happen to my phone! That's why I put a thread like this!

[Q] Pls can someone help me? Flashing new radio

HI, i've been on here all night trying to flash a new radio but after 3 hours I am pulling my hair out.
I have htc desire hd with cyanogenmod 7.2.0.
My radio is old so I downloaded PD98IMG as I don't have gps and it needs updating anyway. I've been searching around and I cant even get into bootloader?!
Maybe I don't have s-off?! If so I can't even get it?!
Please can someone PM me, I'll even pay you to help me!! I need a fresh pair of eyes and someone who knows what they're doing.

Are you S-OFF? have you checked that in hboot? without S-OFF it is impossible to flash a radio

I don't know how to check. I tried volume and power but it just brings up usual options.
I went into recovery mode and tried to install the PDIMG file from zip file but it aborted?!
Also same happended when I tried to install fastbootcommander

ok..you never install a PD98IMG file in recovery unless you want to mess your device. Boot the phone normally, go to menu>settings>power options and untick fastboot.
Then power off the device and turn it on by pressing power + volume down

Where's fast boot located in 4.2.2 ROMs

Thanks for the reply glevitan.
I don't have the "power options" option.
Nothing special happens when pressing power + volume down. It simply reacts to my pressing of the power button and offers me the usual shut down, reboot, silent, aeroplane mode etc.

1. I don't understand what you're asking and why. Could you clarify? Like, where the binaries are saved? And is there a reason you're asking?
2. You're kind of hijacking someone else's thread on a completely unrelated topic. You might want to consider creating a new Q&A thread.

Chill up miss...
Maybe he just wanted to ask where is the fastboot located(glevitan said to uncheck the fast boot in setting which only in sense based rom) and he used aosp based rom so dont have any fastboot option in setting,so he asked in this thread

Haha, thanks; I needed that. I've been in a grumpy mood recently. Sorry...

Apologies Glevitan, I can get into hboot now. I did miss the power off bit first.
However I can't press up volume as its broke and has been for sometime.
Tried to follow the guide http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...astboot-flash-radio-modem-using-fastboot.html
but it just says waiting for device and has done even before I worked out how to hboot.
I tried just loading hboot on its own to see what happened and when i load up the hboot it just says do I want to update radio v2 and I can't select yes (if that's what I should do?)

edit: thanks hdorius

So if your vol up button is broken,i think u can't flash the radio unless your device is ENG S-OFF which can flash the radio via fastboot...

lol.. i meant the bootloader. Thank god you corrected me..
You can use the adb to reboot to bootloader. Just go to terminal, cmd whatever, type "adb reboot bootloader".. And you can flash radio using fastboot command.. But you need to be s-off.. I am not sure whether it is possible to flash radio using shipped hboot. I think it is possible. But better to wait for glevitan to clear things up. :good:

My advice is that you fix the volume rocker first. If you get stuck flashing a radio and your rocker is messed...then you might get stuck in the splash screen...

It broke a while ago. I bought a new rocker and glued it on. The glue set and stuck, disabling the up volume button only. I won't be able to fix this now I've ruined it!
