I just flashed a new rom and it has been booting up for 10 minutes, Is that normal or no?
10 minutes is a bit long. Do you have the sdk set up? If so, type ddms in your command prompt it will open the debug monitor. There you can watch the log to see if your phone is bootlooping.
Some roms take a bit longer for some reason. I have a sort of internal clock these days from flashing so many roms that tells me when it's been booting for a bit too long
I just loaded the Alfonso 4.0.3 rom last night, was taking ages. found out I had to wipe all data, cache etc and try rebooting again for it to work..
thx
Ill try that and lets all hope that it works.!
Android Revolution HD
Just flashed Android Revolution HD 6.2.1 XE through ROM MANAGER. It has taken about 12 minutes so far in its boot up.
Does anyone know if this seems long?
(I'm a NOOB. Sorry if my impatience is taking over. Just anxious to use ICS.)

12 min seems a lil bit long, i needed for the reboot after flash 3 - 4 min....maybe u should try to flash over normal cwm and not rom manager....
The last time I flashed AOKP it was in bootloop about 10-15 minutes so I battery pulled (probably not the smartest idea) and then restarted and it booted perfectly. If you decide to take that route, just make sure you have SDK & adb set up so you can save yourself if you have the need. Aside from that time though ROMs usually only take a few minutes to boot.
*Also if it takes too long to boot I would recommend going back into clockwork and re-wipe/flash and it should, in theory, boot correctly.
taking for ever

If you have TWRP recovery just do a factory reset. Otherwise just wipe system, cache, dalvik, and maybe try a new rom or try again?

?? what device are you using?
I don't recall seeing those rom/kernel.names for galaxy nexus EVER?
did I miss something?
Just hard bricked my GN GT_I 9250 while trying to flash it a factory 4.2.2 with nexus root toolkit. I just flashed the zip file (apparently that was wrong?). It died in the flashprocess and won't even go to bootloader.
there is a guide here, where I'm not allowed to post yet, but I can't install INF driver in step 5 so I though you might have another solution?

OK, as the title says, my phone is stuck on the splash screen (nyan cat) and i am freaking out, i only have very basic knowledge of CWM and hardly anything else.
I was running GummyNex v1.0.1 and the stock kernel that came with that.
Now what i did to get myself into this mess!
I was playing around in jrummy16's ROM toolbox and installed a font onto my phone, then when i did the reboot it told me to do after installing the font it just hung on the nyan cat splash screen for over 30 minutes, after that i pulled the battery in fear.
Next step i did was reboot into fastboot then clockwork recovery and wipe the cache, tried rebooting, never ending nyan again.
Again into CWM and wiped data/factory reset and wipe dalvik, the same story.
Now i found someone who had the same problem online, but he luckily wasn't an idiot and didn't remove all ROMs from his internal memory a few nights before. flashing a new ROM fixed his problem, but unfortunately i cant because i dont have any in my memory and i have no idea howcome i don't have a nandroid backup anymore, i did one of my last ROM but its not there (more stupidity)
can anyone please advise on what to do next? I am in dire need of help.
is there anyway i can get a ROM + GApps onto my phone when all i can access is CWM?
Thankyou for any help
Cant you put your SD into another phone or an SD reader? Had the same problem myself in the past so I know how does it feel, but it's your only chance.
EDIT: damn just saw its a nexus so my post is nonsense, I hope your GNexus fellas can provide you a solution. I think you can to put back stock rom with your computer,after you put your phone in APX mode.

The AIO installer will be more than enough (and will take you 3 minutes max) for this purpose.

So, last week or a bit past last week, i flashed aokp JB build 3 and then franco nightly. I have Clockwerk recovery and flashed gapps. (Tutorial)
So now yesterday , my phone was fine. Around sometime in the afternoon after i replied a text , then an hour later my phone was off. I thought that was weird, so i turned it on and after the google logo, i'm stuck on the aokp logo. And can't get past it. I played a 55 MIN dota 2 game with the boot logo on. I'm quite a noob. So help me please?

Probably nothing wrong with your device. I would guess it has to do with a bug in either AOKP or your custom kernel. Flash back to stock and I bet your device will boot. (Link is stickied in General or look in my signature.) You have to expect issues like that when you are running custom roms and particularly custom kernels. If you don't want to deal with those issues, I would recommend to stay stock.

Hi, okay so it says that flashing wont remove data, then above on the top of the thread it says that it will erase everything. I'm confused.
If this is the ONLY way , then can you please tell me how to do this, i'm confused.
If there is another way on to get out of this boot logo aokp thingy, without losing data , please tell me.
Note: i dont know if i'm doing anything, but i backed up via the recovery CWM
then after i deleted cache and dalvik, then flashed aokp,franco and then g apps. And nothing happened
Bump please. i really don't want to wipe my phone
Reflash AOKP, the Kernel and GApps, You could also jsut reflash AOKP and GAPPS with no custom kernel. that should pull you out of the bootloop. If it does not pull you out of the bootloop you will have to find another rom based off of what AOKP is and try flashing that. Most likely right now there is a problem with your boot.img file or AOKP rom its self. if you just reflash everything like you are flashing a nightly you should be fine unless something else is work. After you flash everything like you do with a new nightly make sure you wipe cache and dalvik. If non of the above works you might have to wipe and start all over again. You do not lose your internal SD card data just your user data and system data.

Uhh i reflashed aokp, kernel and gapps. Nothing really. Two questions.
1. Anything else?
2. for the reflashing, i want to flash another rom, how do i put the files on the phone? Gnex doesn't have an sd card slot and i dont know how to access it on the computer if it is in recovery mode. So confused
EDIT: not entirely sure what flashing means, so what i meant by flashing in my case, was that i just re ran the zips. then reboot. Nothing . waited 5-10 minutes ish. Never had long bootups on my first try.

Please do not bump a thread more than once every 24 hours (see rule 16). Thanks.
As for your issue, I will say it again: the link I provided you has all the information you need to return your device to stock without wiping the data on /sdcard. You just need to take some time and read it carefully a couple of times instead of rushing through it. If you don't understand something, just ask. (What you had said previously: "Hi, okay so it says that flashing wont remove data, then above on the top of the thread it says that it will erase everything. I'm confused." says to me that you did not read the entire post and the notes. And note, if your bootloader is already unlocked, you do not have to unlock it again...)

But there is a problem. I cant access the phone. Since it won't boot up i can't access it from the computer.. Or can i? There's no sdcard slot either
Ok, so last night I got my phone totally back to stock. So today I decided that stock is boring lets try CM10! I followed all the instructions for my phone a SGH-989D to a tee. The phone boots up and displays the CM Circle logo and just sits there spinning away forever. It's quite pretty really, but the functionality seems to be a little lacking. Any idea how to get past this? I have pulled my battery and factory wipe/ deleted cache / wiped dalvik already. And yes, when I get home I can wipe back to total factory, but I would like to give CM10 a try if possible. Thank you for your time!
My first question would be how long are you waiting? First boot after a clean flash will take a long time. If you've waited more than an hour, then you might have a problem.
What recovery are you using? If cwm, try using darksidecachewipe zip before you reboot to system.

Yeah I waited like 30 min ish, which is way longer than any other ROM i have used. I had all sorts of issues afterwards as well just getting it back to stock. I am now on ICS stock ROM for Telus atm, maybe I'll try the stable CM10 over Christmas break when my phone is not so important. Was annoying being at work all day and having it now work...lol
Hey guys, I am pretty knowledgeable on flashing rom's as I have done it quite some time now, but I just flashed this rom and can't get my phone to fully reboot. I am not sure if this is supposed to happen or if it is semi bricked etc. I had cyanogenmod 10.1 on my samsung galaxy 3 sprint and I factory data reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache, and format system all before I flashed this Axis rom. I went through the aroma installer and everything checked out and after installation completed it said Installer status: 0 and option for reboot. I hit reboot thinking everything checks out and the phone tries to reboot as I see the samsung logo..but then it goes black....nothing happens for minutes (I am not sure if it is supposed to take that long but it looks completely off..screen isnt on or nothing) so I wait for long time and nothing...I try to turn it on again and samsun logo appears with the Cyanogenmod Blue Android guy...(not sure if that is the same logo used for axis or if it didnt wipe the logo from previous rom)...then it goes black again...so i tried reflashing the rom again and again...and nothing same results..just turns on samsung logo with the blue man and shuts off...i am able to get to the custom recovery...but thats it...please help...I do have a nandroid backup but when i go to restore it doesn't find it...is there anyway to get another rom or something flashed? maybe through odin etc..
I think something like this happen to me before. I ended up having to go back and use Odin and reinstall the recovery and rom. Some how I had erased the ability to install a ROM. I may have had to treat my phone like it was the first time rooting it and go through the entire root process. Sorry just working from memory. Hope this helps and good luck
i wasnt aware that we had a rom called Axis for this phone. you probably flashed a rom not meant for our model phone
That rom is for the AT&T model, why would you flash it to a sprint model? I think using Odin to go back to stock might be your best bet.

It is a universal rom supposedly they have every carrier on the aroma installation im actually having this same problem he is :/ it sucks phone just keeps rebooting and wont stay in recovery or the download mode for long
I never trust those multi-carrier roms. Doesn't seem safe to me for this exact reason.

During the aroma installation does it have you select a carrier type? And does it have you select a kernel?

Hello Everyone,
I recently formatted my internal SD (Hercules T-Mobile) and I cannot seem to get Shadow Mastery installed. It just keeps boot looping. I have full wiped using infamous. I have tried every recovery possible including TWRP 2.6 as instructed.. Is it because my Preload partition is no longer present? If it is this how can I go about repartioning my device to include preload. I have also went back to stock using Odin. It still does not create a preload.. Thanks in advance for your input. I have been lurking and flashing since my G1 but am now trying to be more active in the community.
shadow master 2.2
im installed it last night and it froze on the green screen for about 20 minutes.....then I took the battery out and re installed it......
it did tha same thing......so I used DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE_EXT4 and whipped it again and in stalled shadow 1.5...
any reason why it froze ?

I tried all the things that were suggested because, I too, had the never ending boot loops. I returned to stock with Odin, rerooted, and formatted and reset everything and still had boot loops. I even tried a dirty install over Shadow 1000 just for yuks.
Bottom line after returning to stock again thru Odin and rooted, I used Infamous Wipes and installed Shadow Mastery 33 and still got the boot loop. I went back into TWRP and installed Tiberius-TouchWiz-2.4-LINARO-Hercules.zip and, surprise, it works.
I hope this helps others with the boot loop problem. I don't know what it is that could be about the kernel that my phone doesn't like, but it solved the problem for me.
Thanks a million. I will give this a shot. Knew I could count on such a awesome community to help me out. :good::good:
Tried Tiberus worked perfectly. Thanks again.

Hey there, I have been for the last three hours reading all 24 pages o the Shadow freezerburnt rom (final version) and at the end after so much reading I got confused but I am not allowed to post a question in the developers section, maybe you can help me here. I am now running JMTv7 , i had so far flashed a few cyanogen CM10, cm11, beanstalk 4.4, paranoid android 4.3.. and so far i had no major problems trying them out.
Now I would like to try this Rom from Rushing: Shadow Freezerburnt, but he makes a remark that says (no radio and no recover included) so I have now on JMT7 the CWM 6.0 recovery and the UVMC6 radio.
The question is: if I flash the Shadow FB Rom means I have to flash as well a new recovery and the radio cause it will get lost in the wipe outs? so far preparing for this I downloaded the tiberious kernel, the twrp recovery zip file, I am still trying to get a place to download the UVMC6 radio just in case but no luck with that. Seriously I have been reading forums (all 24 pages in rushing OP) for over three hours and now my head is spinning... I appreciate any pointers... Thank you.
Okay, I flashed today shadow freezerbunt, coming from JMT 7. I read tons before going for it I got all worked up hearing of so many people getting bootloops. I followed the instructions as kj2112 posted and I had no problems at all. So far is going smooth. No need to change kernel here. Thank you rushings this Rom looks great and runs suave...
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Guess I need to add my name to this list. I have never been able to install ANY of Rushing's Shadow series ROMs. I always get stuck at about 20% load of the Shadow Boot Screen. The only time I was able to get past it was by installing a Linaro Kernel before booting the first time. But I just tried his latest version which is supposed to fix the boot issues, and same exact thing, although this time if I install Linaro it goes past the boot screen, but then has a boot loop. And I've gone all the way back to a fresh ODIN factory reset, but no success. Does anybody have a real explanation as to why this could be happening?
Cheers
Try SHADOW MASTERY 1.2.3
The above file appears to be the same as Shadow Mastery AND includes the radio and recovery. I have been running this for afew weeks no with no problems.
