[Q] Can't reset my GN - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Can't reset my GN. I clicked reset and it rebooted, now it has been on bootscreen with the Google logo for the good last hour.
What to do?? I have tried earlier to remove battery and tried to reset again but it just won't work.

Are you rooted and using a custom recovery?

No root at all. I'm an "normal" user

Ok I don't have a clue then. I know if you have a custom recovery it can cause problems with wiping.
That's a weird one. You could use the adb/fastboot method to reload the stock rom on it which will wipe data.

How do I do that? Can you PLEASE help me with a step-by-step guide?

have you tried to press back button and then power to enter fastboot?
i did...but nothing happen
I have had then when i messed up rooting my phone, its not bricked. your recovery is messed up, follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6710081&postcount=2
if step 2 does not do anything then just hold volume down and power then navigate to recovery.
keep trying till you can boot recovery it will work, thats what i did
Did you try running the RUU update while you are in this mode?
The USB port should be in hboot-usb mode.

Koedil,
Did you ever manage to fix your Desire? If you did, then how did you do it?
I have the same problem and am tearing out what little hair I have.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rich
I figured out a fix
If you haven't already fixed your Desire, then after some trial and error I came up with this fix (post #5) that worked for me.
Read it ....Hope our xda be better

Hey people,
A friend of mine is getting a white screen on his Galaxy Y, can't do anything with it. Even a hard reset (as found on the internet) doesn't work. (Hard reset being holding volume up, center button and power button).
Does anyone have experience with this problem?

Try remove battery and power on again. If its not work try volume down home button then power button. If the download mode appears flash stock rom again using odin..

Thats NOT a hard reset! Pull the battery, and insert it again. Now do your "hard reset". As in, holding volume up+home+power key together until you see the Samsung logo. Do a data wipe and restart. If that doesnt work, search for flashable firmware packages in the Development section. If that doesn't work either, replace your phone.
Hey guys,
Thank you both for your replies.

Stating what happened: He just suddenly had a white screen, unable to do anything with the phone. Rebooting, pulling the battery etc. didn't do anything.
Your second option didn't work either unfortunatly.

Sorry about that, I just read in about this phone, since it's not mine, and I already forgot about the second part.
Unfortunately, neither of this works. Every boot method gets him a white screen. Since he rooted his phone about a week ago, looks like he's going to need a new one.

try flashing the ROM using Odin from the PC
Might Odin be the same as Samsung Kies in dutch? Or is this an external program?
Assuming it's this program: http://odin-win.sourceforge.net/
Now how does this work? I've been flashing my phone for quite a while now, but I'm not familiar with this program. Can I just download a ROM (stock) from the developers part here?

its a tool for windows which lets you flash firmwares. You need to connect your phone to your pc is download mode.
Search Google and you will get lots of tutorials explaining the process.

Okay thanks for all your help guys.
My friend tried everything you people suggested, but nothing worked. He just had an expert look at it and it's just totally bricked. Gotta buy a new one. Thanks for trying anyway!
Sorry for bringing this up again, but I kinda feel sorry when people brick their devices. Yours doesnt have to be a brick. Read this. The instructions are on the first page. There's a link to Odin too. Hope for the best!

You have to spam the switch a few times, once doesn't usually work to start factory reset, move it back and forth a few times. Timing is everything.

Okay, no it`s working!
Timing is the key thats right.

Helloo. Sorry to trouble all of you. My nexus 7 had problems booting up and it started boot looping from 'goggle' sign to 'x' sign somehow again and again. Afterwards, I went to see tutorials to solve the bootlooping problem and I saw WugFresh's toolkit I used that toolkit and some how it worked successfully all the way through until it finish to ' Press any key to exit' But my nexus 7 cannot boot up , they show booting failed at the top left hand of the screen T.T Can anyone help me? :crying::crying: Is there any way to solve this ?
Run the tool again using the 'doesn't boot' option to flash factory image.

I havent use that toolkit for a long time, but I still remember there is something called "Bootloop" or "brick," Is that panel everything you got from the toolkit?
By the way, what did you do to your Nexus making it bootloop?

I'm not sure how it got bootlooped my Nexus just drained and I charged it. I on it again and it was boot looping from 'google' to 'x'. There is a panel which have the 'soft-bricked bootloop' thing. I unrooted my nexus yesterday and it stop bootlooping but it went booting failed. Any solutions ? Now it cannot even pass the google sign at start ;n;
If you boot into recovery, do you still have TWRP or stock Android?
Vol Down + Power should go to bootloader. If this is true, use that to get to recovery. Let us know if you still have TWRP.

Stuck at Nokia logo after reset

HI everyone. I just did a reset of my phone through the menu to get it back to factory and now it is stuck at the Nokia logo every time I boot it up. I have reset it with the pinhole and power button a few times. Nothing has helped. Any help? Thanks.

Super. How do I do that? thank you very much for the reply. I would LOVE to get this phone working again.
It's a fault in software. Most people report that after full battery discharge the phone enter "the limbo" with endless and vicious reboot cycle.
I'm investigating if it is possible to repair using the ATF box.

I've asked the ATF Nitro http://www.advance-box.com/ (web form) and got no answer.
I'm thinking they are the only ones who can fix the issue.
