So, im having a problem now. I used boot manager then i installed a cm7 nightly, i restarted and went back to deck ics 5, then everything was fine so i rebooted. it was looping. so i wiped everything and i just decided to install deck ics 6 and it reboots and goes to the recovery, Im stuck and I need some help, after the flash and it goes to recovery, i checked the usb mode toggle and theres nothing there, so im guessing its not installing at all
Just do it the normal way. Wipe everything in recovery (With Amon Ra) as has been detailed a billion times on here, then flash the ROM you want
^ Yeah I agree with that person. I was using CWM until yesterday when it wasn't wiping the Dalvik cache properly. I now use the alternative that he said, use it lol

My phone won't boot more than 3 seconds into the animation. I use CM6.0 stable. I had flashed the PS3Freedom zip in order to Jailbreak my PS3, restored to CM6 with no problem, and then when I did it again I couldn't boot into my RESTORED CM6 ROM. I restored few old nandroids that I didn't like till I got to my rooted Sense 2.2 one, then I deleted a few nandroids from when I was flashing nightlies to make room to download BakedSnacks 1.7 through ROM Manager. Everything was working fine, but then I tried to get CM6 running again and I am still not able to boot into it. What's going on here?
To the best of my knowledge I've been wiping the Data/Cache as often as necessary, even the Dalvik Cache a few separate times trying to get this to work.

what recovery are you using?
in clock work, try wiping to factory, wipe cache partition, wipe datavik then flash from zip to whatever rom.
in RA do the same but make sure your rom is on the root of your sd.
i had the same issue and did that and it worked fine.
I just flashed a fresh cm7 rc4, along with gapps, and zendroid kernel (avs i think i'm not sure which one).
Things were working great. I was using the phone, had just installed widget locker, and then tried to plug my phone into the computer.
Thats when the trouble started. For some reason, usb debugging worked, even the wireless tether worked, but I could not get the sd card to be on the computer, the option just never came up.
To fix the problem, I tried resetting the phone, but when I did so the phone became stufk on the cm7 boot animation for a few hours. What do I do?
I would just do a fresh install, but this is actually the third time that I have gotten stuck on the bootloading screen with cm7, so I just need to find a solution. Please help.

Really need some help with this, guys...need my phone back
You're not alone. I installed GApps along with CM7. Stuck in Boot animation. My wife is pissed.
You posted in the wrong section. I will transfer this over to the EVO Q&A area.
I am assuming that you have your EVO rooted. If you are stuck in a bootloop, simply pull your battery, put it back in and press the power button while holding Vol Down. This will make you go into bootloader. From there, simply go into recovery, wipe everything, and reflash the rom. I have done CM7 and gapps and have no issue.

I did that, many times. One time, it just worked. Didn't do anything different as far as I know, but kind of makes me unsure about future flashes etc.
Pull your battery out, wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache in recovery. Flash ONLY CM7 and the google apps. I think the kernel might be the problem for the bootloop.

I never wipe any of those things seperately, I just use calkulin's format all. That couldn't be the source of any problems right?? I mean, I always believed that that was the best way.
Thanks. I ended up doing that. All is better now.

My problem was installing both at the same time.

I've used Caulkin's format all twice, and both times, I got stuck in the white screen boot loop and had to reflash Amon Ra, just to get back to recovery and flash one of my nandroids.
Wiping everything in recovery works perfectly fine for me.
I use Calk's format all at least a few times a week, sometimes a couple times a day. Always works fine.
Did you wipe?
Did you wipe the data/cache from the handset? if not do so through clockwork
I am trying to flash [ROM] Synergy - [RLS1] - the first time it got stuck in the HTC load screen, so i re-downloaded it and tryed again now it got to the synergy rom load screen and it is stuck on that one now. what can i do to get this rom working please help
I have also tried rebooting three times, done battery pulls. i have done everything the same way i did everyother rom i have flashed and this is the only one i have had any problems with.
We need some additional information to help you guys with this. Are you using RSL1 godmode or non-godmode? Are you using RA, CWR, or TWR? do you have an sd-ext partition setup?
If you are trying to flash RLS1 godmode you must use RA. Last I checked CWR was not compatible and I am not sure of TWR.
Here are the procedures I use in RA.
Wipe -> cache, system, data, sd-ext, dalvik. Then flash and reboot. It has worked for me every time. I know some ROM automatically format system and maybe data, but I do it manually before flashing anyhow.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
im using RSL1 non-godmode. Sorry im not sure what RA, CWR, or TWR are.and i dont know how to do a sd-ext partition setup. all that is new to me for flashing sorry.
I have done what you said you did as far as the wiping everything but it just gets stuck on eather the HTC boot screen or the synergy boot screen

Hey, for some reason I just started having huge problems with clockworkmod recovery within the last few hours. I've had my nexus for a month just about and have been unlocked, rooted , and flashing roms since day one ( I've been flashing my phones for about two years now, just so you know I'm not a noob) and before tonight haven't had one issue. I was running aokp build 13 , and decided to check out the progress on cm9 kang. So I flashed it with no problem , rebooted, set up the rom, and then I went to flash Lean kernel 1.3.0 ( which should work for all 4.0.3 roms) and I ended up getting stuck at the "Google" boot screen, so I booted back into recovery and figured I would just restore my backup of aokp 13.... so I wiped data, cache, and dalvik and proceeded with the restore. The restore got to restoring data , and I got an error saying "data cannot be restored" or something like that. So I figured it was a fluke of some kind , so I tried again... still the same thing. So I tried another one of my backups , still the same thing . I can't figure out why none of my backups will install. So I had to download the stock recovery image and run the bat file just to get the phone working again , and everything was fine . I was back on android 4.0.1 and unrooted. So I rooted again and flashed recovery all over. Made a backup of the stock rom, and proceeded to flash aokp again and the install went smooth, but now any ics gapps I use end up in market force closes, so I figured " I don't feel like dealing with this again lol" , so I booted into recovery and attempted to restore my backup of the stock rom..... again it failed.....
I am beyond confused now what is going on with my recovery, especially since I started fresh a couple hours ago. If anyone has any idea what is going on or if anyone has some input it would be much appreciated. I'm going crazy over here
Edit: I also forgot to add that it seems recovery isn't wiping everything fully. As in I'll wipe data, cache , and dalvik , then install the same rom I was using ( the actual update.zip) , and everything will still be the same when I reboot , meaning all my apps are still there and my docks are still set up the same way like it wasn't wiped at all. Very weird , I've never seen that happen before.

okay, i was trying to root and flash cyanogenmod9 on to my friends s2. i personally have a droid x, that has been flashed a billion times, so i had a good idea of what to do. i rooted his phone using odin to flash clockwork, then flashed superuser in clockwork. after confirming i had root i booted into clockwork, and wiped cache and data. then flashed the hercules.zip and gapps. here's where things get tricky. his power button is broken and everytime i tried to reboot it couldn't because the power button was constantly pressed. eventually he got it to boot, but it never booted up completely, it just stayed on the boot animation. my question is did i do something wrong? do you guys thinks its because of the button since it couldn't have a fresh boot up. should i try flashing another rom to see if that works? any ideas?
I ran across this problem when I was flashing a Jellybean version of Cyanogenmod. If you flashed it on a NON-TOUCH recovery it will most likely boot loop like mine did. I installed a touch recovery and flashed and BANG. I had had Cyanogenmod. Hope this helped
This was my fix...

If it is the CM9 bootloop issue (where it hangs at the little blue dude) check out this page (sorry it won't let me insert a link because I'm a new user lol):

I couldn't get it to work until I followed this method, likely the use of Darkside Super Wipe and Darkside Cache Wipe was what fixed it. Hope this helps.
OOOhhh this happened to me when i first rooted my phone LOOOL......this is what u do....
if you are on cwm 5.0.2.7 or lower...u need to use darkside super wipe then flash the rom
i did the darkside wipe and it booted up fine. thanks a lot guys!
if cant be fixed flash stock. it happened to me once too. i think it was because i flashed the wrong radio
