So I recently flashed my phone to the newest MIUI. I decided to delete CWM for some stupid reason and now my phone won't boot up.
I figured I can just flash my old 2.2 SBF back in and redo everything. Well, it goes into infinite boot loop.
So now...
Battery won't charge (doesn't recognize the battery when plugged to charger)
Tried all different kinds of SBF and all of them end in infinite boot loop
Only thing my phone can do is bootloader. Recovery mode doesn't work either.
Any ideas?
what happens when you try to enter recovery?(power button + volume down)
if it shows android with exclamation mark then press vol up+vol down at the same time..then wipe everything and reboot.
Battery was too low (0%), won't boot into recovery.
I did the Mcgyver trick and got it going.
System wipe + 2.3.3 flash booted it back up. It can charge again now. Right now trying to get rooted and get MIUI running again.
This time I'm not touching the 2ndinitdefy.
Everything was running so well and I had to go and screw it all up.
it happens....
everyone learns from their experience
All the best

Hello,
I was happily using CM7, and while reading through a Diablo III news page (hopefully it comes out soon ), my phone rebooted into a boot loop. Weird, but I figured at worst I would wipe data and reinstall a ROM. Unfortunately, I can't get into recovery any longer.
If I boot the phone normally, I see the white HTC splash screen for a few seconds, then it reboots. I can use HBOOT fine, but as soon as I try to reboot normally / boot into recovery / boot into Restore Factory Defaults, my phone will try to boot accordingly for a second, then reset. Let me clarify...
Pull and replace battery
Boot into HBOOT (volume down + power)
Select Recovery
Phone reboots and reaches CWM Recovery 3 for about 1/2 second, not long enough for me to click anything
Phone reboots into boot loop
I've used HBOOT to flash to CWM Recovery 3.0.0.8, downgraded to the stock radio, run the 2.2 RUU. I'm still running up against the same boot loop problem.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a hardware problem, but I'm anxious to hear if anyone has ideas to try first. Additionally, is there any way to restore to S-ON through HBOOT in case I need to bring this into a Verizon store?
Thanks!
Hey all - I have spent about 9 hours at this so far and thinking I may have bricked my Xperia Arc.
Here is an outline of where I am right now:
Phone previously on CM7, rooted & had CWM recovery.
Spotted the Team Xperia ics v2.5 and decided to give it a look.
Phone froze on splash screen - I stayed patient but an hour later, still nothing.
After this, I'm not really sure where I went at this stage!
The situation right now is that I have stock SE LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic+Global flashed to phone.
On boot, the splash image comes up, then a disconcerting white triangle with yellow exclamation point..... uh oh!
The phone continuously reboots through that loop.
Tried accessing bootloader (power on, toggle vol buttons) but the phone just goes straight by to boot loop.
Checked what I can connect to and can use flashboot to connect in both flashboot mode and fastboot mode.
SuperOneClick freezes (Not Responding) on restarting adb sever stage (I've made sure adb.exe has not been running prior to this)
Completely stuck now - any help rewarded through contributions - sure you'd be saving me the cost of a phone....
Thanks for any help!

You must press the back button to go in fastboot mode. That's the buttons left. If you press it on starting the phone, your led turns blue.
If it works, try to flash the firmware again.
If your phone's bootloader is unlocked then use fastboot to boot a kernel(if you're trying to run.42 then doomlords gb kernel), once that's flashed wipe dalvik cache via cwm and reboot.
So this has happen twice. My gnex has just restarted and get stuck at the bootloader in an endless loop.
I have a stock, rooted, 4.0.4 gnex.
Last time this happen I had to completely wipe my phone and start over. Dont want to do that again.
Has this happen to anyone else?
Thanks

When I load in to recovery I cant even see the CWM menu.
Can you run fastboot commands
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I could but now the phone wont turn on at all. Im actually one the phone with google right now to try to figure this out.
charge the phone (plug it in).
unplug it, press and hold both volume buttons, and press and hold power
bootloader comes up, plug it into computer
in this screen, flash the latest cwm file using the command:
fastboot flash recovery clockworkfilenamehere.img
press vol buttons to restart the bootloader, then select recovery, should pull up cwm.
Go wipe cache and dalvik cache (in advance), then pick restart, see if phone boots up.
If not, you'll need to reflash stock google image.
Charged phone over night and still wouldnt turn on.
Have you tried reseating the battery?

Funny, my CDMA gnex just started doing exactly the same thing. Verizon is overnighting me another one, with Saturday delivery even.
you must factory restore your phone
you need to restore your phone to the factory image, use wugs toolkit,
galaxynexusforum.com/forum/galaxy-nexus-hacking-mods-lte-cdma/1445-wugs-galaxy-nexus-root-toolkit.html
it will download the 4.0.2 factory img for you. then use the same tool to root your phone. then install your rom. Install Liquid rom 1.4. i have tried them all it is by far the most stable and the fastet. coupled with franco or imoseyon kernel i am getting 20+ hrs of battery life and a smokin fast phone.
stuck in bootloader
My GSM nexus running aokp milestone 4 randomly got stuck in the bootloader the other day. It was working fine and after hitting my snooze button on my alarm and waiting a few minutes I realized it was off. when i turned it on it was stuck. I tried clearing cache and dalvik cache which wouldnt work so I was forced to do a factory reset. Came right back to life (with none of my data obviously).
This happened to me last night after trying to restore a nandroid. Wouldn't go past the Google screen when trying to boot the rom and wouldn't go past the team win recovery plash screen.
Luckily I have basic fastboot and adb command skills. Flashed fully back to stock, boot loader, radios, from, kernel. Booted up fine after that and no issues since.
So I was stuck in a similar mode (recovery download mode) yesterday, it only show Android robot with spinning gear on his back and a scrolling progress bar. I turn it off (Power + Vol Up) and then no matter what I do, just power or power + vol down all just go back to that damn robot.. Fastboot, adb won't work.. It show up on the computer as HTC Android Phone USB Device in the DVD/CD drives
It refuse to get out of that for hours.. I finally give up and I leave it running and walked away.. somehow when I got back (around 2 hours later) it is booted back to normal and asking for new setup. So I thought is working. So after messing up the initial setup, I when and try to factory reset it this morning.. and again it goes back into a similar mode, but this time it have the word Erasing under it. However this time it won't leave the mode even for 3 hours +. Anyone know how to get it out of that mode and maybe interact with Fastboot or Recovery or bootloader or something
When it is working... I could into booloader and stuff. The phone has been modded to play edition, S-off and bootloader unlocked...
However whenever that happen, if the phone is off but plug into a computer, it show up as QHS_USB_BULK. and then usually turn on and get stuck on that robot again... Also if I just keep pushing up an then power it will say formatting and then backup recovery log and then all the spinning gear and progress bar just stop
I don't get this thing. Please help
So I managed somehow to kick it out again (after waiting for a long time).. but wanted to convert the GPE back to original. Was following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523 but before I could go back into TWRP to load the new rom, I accidentally hit factory reset and it got stuck in the HTC version of that same screen. This time it have one extra line Backup CW Package.
Again can't get into the bootloader.. just stuck on this boot loop.. god damn..
Here is how it looks like

Hello everyone,
Yesterday when I was going to use my tablet I noticed it was off, but minutes before it was on, so I tried pressing the power button and nothing happened, plugged the charger in, nothing, no signs, it seemed bricked, so I tried to power through download mode and it worked, after that I pressed volume down to cancel it to start normally, the first samsung logo showed up (that one that says the model and stuff), but it was there for really long, i left it running and after 5 mins or so it changed to the pulsing blue samsung logo, left it there and about 30 mins later it was back to the 1st samsung logo again. I also tried a soft reset and booting to safe mode, didn't work either.
This tablet has no custom rom installed (I think it is on stock 4.4.2), the only thing different I installed is TWRP and root, years ago, but I cant boot to TWRP through the vol up+home+power, it doesnt work, tbh it never worked since back then, the only way I found to boot to twrp was thru "adb reboot recovery" using adb, which didnt work in download mode, I want to be able to backup some data before flashing it with Odin, so here are my questions:
1- Is there any other command I could try to force it to boot to recovery?
2- Is there any way to backup data via download mode on this device?
Thank you for your attention
