cyanogenmod7 rc1.5 wont boot ahead the GOOGLE logo.help needed urgently

hey,ive installed the cyanogenmod 7 rc1.5 in my defy mobile.i did EVERYTHING neatly,but now my defy is stuck at a google logo and does nothing else.its not my phone its my dad's who will be back from a project in a couple of days,help needed urgently.
ooh,and i can access the clockwork recovery and stock recovery

clear cache and dalvik cache in custom recovery and reboot. Wait for 10-15 mins , if it doesnt boot try flashing cm7 rc1, clear cache and reboot.
If it still doesnt work you could just flash stock froyo or eclair using rsdlite. That will bring the phone back to how it was when u bought it

thanks you for you help
but ive tried everything youve said.i tried flashing sbf using rsdlite but it gimes me some stupid error,flashed cyanogenmod7 rc1 using cwm recovery,but it says bad file or sometimes it gives me an error saying that it cannot be installed as gingerbread is already installed or something.

Trouble Installing Rom

I am having lot of trouble installing Rom on my Epic 4g touch. I am not sure where I am doing wrong.
Here are the steps i followed to install a new rom
1) Installed SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-oc-sfx.exe (EL29)
2)E4gtAuto Root options C and L (CWM+ Rouge)
3)Calkulins format all * also did cwm wipe
-- Now my phone is stuck at Samsung Galaxy S screen but I am able to go to download mode and/ cwm
4)Copied Calkulin\'s_E4GT_ROM_v2.8.1.zip
--When i reboot it My phone is stuck at Samsung Galaxy S 2 screen.
What ever ROM I install it just gets stuck Samsung galaxy S2 Screen
Rom's I tried
1)Calkulin
2) Unamed Rom
3)ICS leaked Rom.
Guys I really appreciate your help.

Re download the ROM and this time wipe without using the format all zip, install the ROM. If it still wont work, reinstall the recovery through Odin, that may be your problem.
1 wipe data, system, cache
2 install .zip (ROM) from sd
3 reboot.
Sounds like from your post your skipping step 2

Am i still missing something
1) Restored to pre rooted stock based on EL29 rom
2)Flashed Rouge recovery using ODIN (difference i see between auto root and ODIN based flash is I see yellow triangle)
3)Downloaded Unnamed Rom
4)Wipe (Factory reset, System,Cache)
5)Install zip from SD card(external card)
Again it stucks on Samsung Galaxy S2 screen with yellow triangle.
Thanks for your help.
update: I am able to flash Calkulin but not any other ROM

Try wiping cache and data after the new ROM install. So wipe, install, wipe, reboot.

Screwed up my phone. HELP!!

So, I was running CM9 with D2SD but wanted to remove it because I was getting some problems so I tried to restore my backup with the normal CM9. It didn't restore properly. I then thought that anyways the internal member is very low on CM9 then I should try out MTDPartition. I forgot to edit the txt file which is using while flashing CM7 . It installed but didn't pass the boot screen. I tried flashing again but no use. So I downloaded CWM again and flashed it. Then tried installing CM7. Didn't install! So I flashed CWM again and tried with MTD. It installed.
Everything was working normally. I wanted to flash a theme so I rebooted into recovery and flashed that theme (Which I was using since over a month). It just didn't start my phone then.
Now everytime I reboot, my phone starts the boot screen and then suddenly gets stuck and restarts again. This happens again and again. I tried flashing CM7 and CM9 again but same thing happens always
Please HELP!

Have you tried installing CWM recovery again?
I would recommend, install CWM again, then run superwipe, then MAKE SURE YOU REBOOT INTO RECOVERY (NOT REBOOT SYSTEM), then flash your rom again.
(thanks to blueridge wfs team for the sharing superwipe script).

Before flashing your rom, did you perform the following steps?
1. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
2. Wipe Cache
3. Wipe Dalvik
If not, try to do that first, then flash your rom.

CM9 Defy won't get past boot screen

Hi all,
recently I upgraded my red lens defy from cm7.2 to cm9 Motoicegun mod. Worked fine so far, but I had a server error problem with Google Play. So I decided to restore my Backup of cm7.2. Now my phone won't boot anymore. All I see is the cm google logo. I couldn't even get into recovery mode. I managed to restore a stock rom (JORDN_U3_97.21.51.sbf) via rsd lite, which booted. Installed defy recovery, tried to install cm7.2 same problem: Boot freeze. Same when I installed cm9 Motoicegun, cm9 latest nightly, cm7.1 and my old cm7.2 backup. Now I'm desperate
Please help.

Don't worry. Just flash sbf again with RSD Lite. Then, reboot into stock recovery (vol down + power) and clear data. You'll now boot into the stock ROM. You know what to do next

Thx for the reply, but as i wrote, I tried that already.
Every time before flashing I erased user data, cache, dalvik and even the battery stats.
Restored stock rom, installed defy recovery, installed cm - boot freeze

Sound stupid but you tried boot without SD card ?

No, it happens before the animated logo, during the still blue google cm logo. waited for about 10 min, nothing.

[Q] Stuck after ROM flash

I have the Sprint S3 with 4.1.2. Last night I rooted it and it worked fine. I then flashed CWM Recovery and rebooted, all was fine. Tried to put on Liquid Smooth rom and didn't have gapps, attempted to flash gapps but came up with error. Got fed up with it and tried to flash the Synergy Rom. I cleared dalvik and cache, made a backup and flashed. Went through the whole process and auto rebooted afterwards. Went to SAMSUNG on boot and screen went black before finishing and will not go further. I can get into stock recovery but not CWM Recovery. I'd like to have the liquidsmooth rom on there but i also downloaded the stock 4.1.2 rom just in case. How can I get past this to get into either CWM recovery or somehow flash a rom from Odin? I'm stuck.

So you were able to get into the custom recovery (CWM) a couple of times before flashing Synergy Rom, but now it's reverted to stock recovery? When you turn your phone off and hold Volume up, menu, and power it boots into the stock recovery? I've never heard of that happening before.
The best way is to re-do your root process through Odin a-la qbking77's tutorial. This will install CWM again and then you can flash away. Make sure you check your md5sums on the Rom files you downloaded before flashing them. That's the most common cause of bad flashes around these parts.

I've ended up fixing it but had to flash stock 4.1.1 on it from Odin and then it automatically went to 4.1.2 after reboot. Thanks
But yes, it was going to CWM just fine before I flashed Synergy after Liquidsmooth. Thats how I put on Synergy. But at least it was just a soft-brick.

Did you wipe (everything) between flashes? Even roms of the same version can have issues if you flash one over the other
By everything I mean /system, /data (factory reset), dalvik cache, and cache
