Please be nice to me.....I am a newbie, very bold and out of the box and living dangerous with this rooting and ROM flashing. I am addicted but do not know a lot. I am not techno stupid but I get excited and dont think sometimes (was before I took my A.D.D. meds so I was being impulsive) anyhow for some stupid reason I didnt run a nandroid backup. I have a backup but for some reason it wont boot to it. What happened was after flashing 7 the other day, I loved it but market kept force closing all my apps and I couldnt figure it out so I restored back to mod6. was up all night playing around trying to learn all this lingo blingo ROM crudola...........anyhow saw the 7nightly so I flashed it while driving to work (bet yall think im really dumb now) LOL and it boots and gets to the Android screen where it says touch the Android to begin......NOTHING HAPPENS. Rebooted 3 times no worky. So I figure well go back to Mod6 and have a phone until 7 is stable. Cant do that so Im not sure what to do now. I tried flashing a Full Mod6 but to no worky I am at a LOSS. Figured I would ask the experts to please help with ideas. Hugs from Texas girl
Currently backing up my SD card in case I need to.
Have you been wiping in-between flashes? If not:
1. get into recovery
2. wipe everything except battery and rotate stats. Wipe it all again.
3. Flash the Rom of your choice.
4. ???
5. Profit (hopefully)

Btw cm7 nightlys #7 is working fine I have no issues other than I think I might be having radio issues but that has nothing todo with cm7.
First you have to wipe and partition all data on your phone inrecovery mode. Cache dalve calche and do a full system wipe. Get yourself one of those minisd to sd card adapters to format your sd. Erase all data by formatting the sd the copy and paste your working rom zip back on the sd. Put it back in your fone and reboot into recovery. From there id do one more factory reset just to be sure then flash the zip. You should be good. Sounds to me you flashed to many roms on top of eachother without wiping prior installments.
Omg thanks
Wiping Data was the ticket.......DUH to me! you guys are awesome. Im in and just logged in and setting it up now. EXCITED!

Alright..........I change roms quite often on my EVO 4G. But once I zipped the UNleashed rom, things started to head down hill!!! I was getting force-closes out the ass! So I tried to change roms to solve the problem. I then went to the new Myn's Z rom, nothing was better. So I zipped the ELITE rom came, and I couldnt even open my market!! Plus a few other things. So then i zipped the 1.3.4 MIUI rom.....smh......and I kept getting a "android.process.acore" force-close REPEATEDLY!!!! I couldnt do ANYTHING without it popping up!! So I zipped and went back to Myn's Warm2point2 which is where i was before all this! And NOW.....my "PHONE" and my "PEOPLE" are ERASED from the phone!!! I CANT connect the phone to a computer using the USB!!!! And HTC sense and anything related to it is ERASED from the phone completely!!!..........did I mention I have NO NANDROID BACKUP!?!? I cant make calls, recieve calls, make texts, recieve texts, view my contacts, view my call log.....ANYTHING!!! So.......................................A SOLUTION PLEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEEEE!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
try to wipe all data and cache in recovery mode....
Im doing that as we speak!! Hope it works.......smh
What he said.....same thing happened to me and doing that (read above) solved my issue.
On a second note....I've edited your post's title....don't offer money unless you are willing to pay up.....for example...you owe the guy above me $1000...do you plan to pay him? Or even worst...now you owe me $1000....soooo
Cheers,
M_T_M
Wouldnt have a problem with it, but I see you point! But....that still didnt solve the issue!! :-/
Where is moderator when he needed.
take the battery out for three to five minutes...replace it and turn phone on CWR....clear data and cache (hoping you did a backup) and the reboot...it should fix it.

Dude.
RUU
start over.
First thing is to calm down. Sounds like things are messed up probably from flashing so many different things and not doing it properly.
If you don't want to flash back to stock, try this. Shut your phone down and yank your sd card. If you read it directly from the computer does it seem to work ok? If not, your sd card could be borked. If it pulls up ok, format it. Then, put back in your phone and boot into recovery. Wipe everything. Then, try to mount your card via recovery usb mount. If it still doesn't mount, then post back. If it does, move the rom you want onto the card and flash it. Then, go from there and see how things turn out.

Wipe Everything 3 times. Seriously.
Ok so im having some major issues. After wiping everything, il flash a rom using AmonRa recovery and it will start up like normal with no issues.. But when i need to restart my phone, or pull the battery or shut off or w/e, it wont get past start up screen.. Doesn't matter what rom i use..
All i remember is after flashing a bad Ice cream sandwich rom, i started having the issues.. Heard someone say something about my hboot? if it could be that, its version 6. 16. 1002.
Need help badly =( My phones my main source of communication and i hate having to reflash it daily
I had the same problem I flashed a miui ROM from amonra recovery and it just got stuck on the bootload screen... I fixed my issue by putting another ROM on the root of my SD card and flashed it you made sure you wiped the cache,dalvik cache,and factory reset right?? That's how I messed mine up I flashed cm7 to fix mine.. hopefully this helps if it didn't I'm sorry

will this cm7 work? not sure if its some system tweak or an actual rom lol
Download that one and I'm sure you won't need the gapps make sure you back up your current ROM and wipe the dalvik cache,cache,and factory reset etc.. plz let me know how it goes

Didnt work =/ I was ableto run it on first time, but not 2nd.. then tryed wiping and everything else to a new rom.. no changes in start up paterns D=
Damn I have no idea how to fix it then that's crazy I wish I could help you more but i just don't know what else could be wrong LOL sorry

Wholy crap,i'm not sure i want to mess with the reaper crowd,i'm not wanting to die anytime soon,ok guys.Anyway,the best thing i can tell you to do is,either install a new recovery and try that route,or unroot,then reroot,to see if that helps,here a link for the rooting and unrooting... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1245649
Normally, if you're having probs like this, it might be good to drop 10 and punt.
Run the RUU for your phone's version, and basically start over. I'm not sure about the newer H-Boot versions, but you may still be S-Off after running RUU. I know on mine, it's that way, but mine is from before Gingerbread
From common knowledge around the root community, that sounds completely like the wrong path lol...
Generally there is a much more simple solution lol.. I know that much..
and nice to see my signatures all over this website lol =D Clearly people like the clean slate Team Noctural sig i created.
I've had a ROM or two in the past do something similar. It would boot the first time and everything worked great but upon reboot would stick at the HTC screen. Try wiping your regular cache and dalvik cache and reboot and see if it will start again.
HI all,
I've flashed CWM5.5 from the recomended thread and installed Cyanogen 9 Alpha 1. Unfortunatly the phone seems to boot up but does never leave the boot animation screen (yes I've also flashed gapps after cyanogen).
Anyone can identify this pattern? On a normal device I could hook it up through a serial cable and try to debug the boot... Eventually how can I do that with a I8150?
Well, any help would be most welcome. I'm totally available for testing and I do have some experience with Linux even at a very low level/system space.
Install
Use CWM5.
Warning: Only use this recovery to flash CM9. Otherwise, you risk bricking your phone!
Wipe data and cache.
Flash update*.zip.
Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM9 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
Reboot phone.
After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Warning: Do not restore backup data of system apps!
If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.
read it thoroughly ...
1st you must flash update*.zip
2nd gapps*.zip
that just about it ....
what is your current kernel ?
That was pretty much it... I've restored not the original operator crap ROM, but instead the Value Pack ROM.
CyanogenMod9 seemed to install ok, but just looped and the phone didn't finished the boot. I'm not really sure on what happened. I'm just finishing restoring the stuff
I'm guessing you didn't wipe data/cache.
I did a factory reset, but sure, it might not have wiped the whole thing... Going to try again.
@argo68
True mate, the issue was not wiping the user cache. I've wiped the cache now from ClockWorkMod and it worked ok. Takes some time to boot compared to the stock samsung ROMs but it works fine
Anything you need tested ? I can most likely help.
I do have a problem with apps though, for example, GMAIL doesn't show the body of the message... as you can see on the screenshot, but I guess this is a app related issue maybe?
http://susepaste.org/images/39081870.png
After a reboot somehow it boots a bit faster and the gmail app is now displaying the body of the email and it seems a bit faster...
Good work, gonna ride this for a few days and see what happens.
@argo68
If you need beta testers, let me know. I'm off work this days but can't wait to get into my lab and check this stuff deeper
@argo68

just in case he takes offence, which I don't believe he would

Hi I'm using this cyanogen mod for quite a few days now. The back side of the phone is always warm and the battery is drained very fast. Anyone have this similar problem?
I'm sure that I install the ROM correctly as i cleared everything on the phone with CWM 5.0.0.4 before and after. (Phone data / Cache Partition / Dalvik Cache / Battery Cache)
Any help would be appretiated
No such problem here. You should use an app to check what frequency the phone is running at in idle, and also how much load there is on the cpu.
Hi guys im a newbie introduced to the rooting scene. I got to say that this is by far one of the nicest forums ive read through. But i come to you for advice. My best friend rooted my htc evo 4g and did a great job with it. He put overclocking, super user, cache mate, etc. as i was slowly gathering the apps ive used i kept coming across the google play store saying that i had insufficient memory to further download the apps. So i took my search online and tried several methods to figure out why I couldnt download apps. I found out that it was due to the dalvik cache and all that. So i read further into it and tried to follow what advice was put out before me on the forums. Sadly i think i took a misstep somewhere and now am stuck at the black screen with the white android logo flashing slowly for 15 mins at a time. So did i just mess up? Please help.:crying:
Lmao.....yeah ur not bricked atleast. Go into your recovery. Click on mount usb or whatever it says. Connect phone to computer. Transfer ur favorite rom to ur phones sd card. Then exit that screen. In recovery go to wipe. Wipe everything except sd card. Then go to flash a zip. Go to the rom.zip u pit on ad card. Flash and reboot. I also recommwnd switching to smelcus recovery as it wipes so muxh better. Find that I'm dev section. Hope that helped a little
This is fixable...ur just bootlooped

What papa smurf151 is driving at is you killed your current ROM install when you wiped the davilk cache. (at least I know mine wouldn't work when I did the same thing playing around with my phone.) I had to reinstall the ROM to get the phone to work.

This depends on the ROM. A lot of ROMs are fine after wiping dalvik-cache.
What Papa is doing is ensuring the phone will boot with the selected ROM.

Hello,
I have a Samsung galaxy s2 T-Mobile edition.
I had Dirt Unicorns 4.3 installed on it.
I wanted to try something different so I was going to try liquid smooth 4.4.2
so I did the usual way:
-Boot into recovery Cwm 6.0.4.3
-made backup
-Factory reset / erase data
-wipe cache
-Wipe dalvik
-then ran Dark side super wipe ( I searched the internet and concluded that this is were I went wrong)
-Installed gapps
-installed ROM
It was all going fine but when the ROM booted up it was really terrifying. The ROM keep freezing and didn't let me do anything. Didn't even have the soft keys on.
So then I said oh well the rom blows(it probably doesnt just with me) so then I felt a little better because of course I had a backup of DU.
So I turned off my phone booted into cwm. This time it said something about it couldn't load the last_log.
Then I went to restore and tried to restore my backup.
All didn't go as planned, it moved system then data but when it went to .android_secure it immediately went to mounting sdcard0 and froze there.
so I let it stay there for a good 10min and nothing. So I held down my power button and it shut off. Turned it on it would go to a boot loop then just stay in the endless boot screen.
So after I felt really sad and down I tried to look up some stuff on my kindle about the problem.
Some people said it was cuz cwm 6.0 doesn't like darkside. It will do bad things so I was screwed.
then I read that it is a cache problem. So since the backups do the system and data I tried to do an advanced restore of just the cache. Long and behold it stayed frozen for a good 20m.
So then I tried a bunch of things trying to factory reset it can't format cache I tried to just for format the cache. nope. I tried to restore the backup a couple of times. I had another backup from awhile back of DU but some result. Then alittle bit of glory.
I had a backup of a while back. It was the jedi mind trick x4 ics. I restored that and oh man i was happy. It booted up fine and dandy and i have a decent "working" phone. It still has problems like when you lock the screen it doesnt turn off, just not interactive. and once i lock it the soft keys go crap and dont work(got button savior). So i thought well if this rom worked maybe the cwm is fixed. I tried to boot into the cwm through the power menu of the rom and it just froze while turning off. Held the power button then booted into recovery and the blue options line didnt come up so then i rebooted again and this time didnt let go of the volume buttons when the background came on. Thankfully they came on.
SO... i tried to run my backup of DU again and nope so then i repeated to go back to jedi mind trick cuz i need a working phone.
What im trying to solve is can i go back to DU working perfectly fine.
also i have tryed mostly everything in recovery But post as much help as you can and ill get back to you.
--
I also have been doing some research about the problem i had. Lots of other people had it but not really a solution.
I have kinda concluded on a solution in mind.
Heres the big question:
Can i unroot my phone and put the original firmware and stuff. Then just reroot and put a rom?
Is there a way to solve this problem?
Sorry for the big topic but i am really stressing because its a really good phone and i dont want to go to a crappy backup.
Thank you if you can help!

I had a similar issue flashing a new ROM and I had to unroot my phone as well. This was the guide I used: http://galaxys2root.com/t-mobile-ga...-to-ics-stock-on-t-mobile-galaxy-s2-sgh-t989/
After this you may want to upgrade to the latest firmware by using Kies, and then try your hand at re-rooting and putting another ROM.
Hope it works out for you. :highfive: :fingers-crossed:
Don't know about the rest of your post because I don't have experience with that ROM.
