Hey all,
Couple days ago i got the official update for my HTC ONE X to Jelly Bean 4.1.1.
I was extremely happy and installed it asap and the install worked great with 100% success.
Sadly , After the 1st launch the phone worked for couple seconds and then stuck for 2 seconds and just reboot it self , then it launched again and rebooted again after couple seconds.
It looks like a boot loop with official rom , I must say that the phone get to the "Desktop" main screen with the clock , but cant stay "alive" more then couple seconds and resets over and over.
FYI - When i enter Boot screen it doesnt reset , and when i plug the phone to the charger - it doesnt reset at all (even in the phone main screen - apps and stuff).
I dont wanna send it to repair because it can take up to 3 weeks without it.
I even started to think about Custom ROM , but i really want to avoid that when there's 4.1.1 official rom out there.
Any solution?
I will really appriciate that.
thx alot.
Does it stay enough for you to do a Factory Reset? If so do it (Both from Bootloader and from Settings) then you should have your phone good as new
Do a factory reset in bootloader menu,maybe it helps.....your phone is 100% stock now ?
Enter the bootloader menu by pressing and holding the power button and volume - button until it reboots into bootloader menu
I did factory reset both on settings and on boot screen , The problem doesnt solved.
My phone is 100% stock yeah.
Then i suggest you take it in for warranty ! If you unlock the bootloader and start rooting and custom romming you will definitely void the 100% warranty that you still have now !!!
Is there any option to Re-install the 4.1.1 update? or Roll back to 4.0.4 without unlocking the device?
Atm its 100% stock lock im reminding.
Rolling back to 4.04 is impossible without unlocking the bootloader. Installing the update again.....can't really answer that question ....sorry mate

You can install the ROM from scratch if the RUU is avaliable, check htcruu.com.

I have a stock GN, not rooted yet. Today my phone automatically shut off and now it starts back up, google logo shows up and all those colors come on for couple of seconds and then the phone reboots itself.
I can press both volume up+volume down + power button and get into a menu which gives me the options of Start, Restart bootloader, recovery mode, and power off. I choose recovery mode but then it goes on to an android sign with exclamation mark. After that I can't seem to get anywhere. I have tried volume up +power, volume down+power, and volume up+down+power but nothing seems to work. It just keeps on rebooting it self.
Any solutions to this problem??
There are two possibilities:
1) Software problem. Since you were stock, this is unlikely.
2) Hardware problem. This is more likely, in my opinion.
If you want to eliminate 1) as a possibility, you can try this:
1. Download the GNex Toolkit here
2. Install it & get the drivers working on your computer (if you haven't already)
3. Unlock the bootloader by selecting Option 3 (it'll wipe your phone)
4. Flash factory stock rom by selecting option 8
5. Try it. If it works, congratulations. (if you want to re-lock your bootloader, use option 11)
If this doesn't work, relock your bootloader and send it in for warrantee. (most likely a hardware problem)

So, I did the above method and after flashing the factory stock rom it won't start up anymore. It doesn't respond to anything at all. It seems I've bricked it
Is there any way to unrbick it now? I'm assuming I can't send it in for warranty either now if it's semi bricked. Unless it's been completely bricked which means there is still a chance of getting a replacement phone.
I have the same prob on rooted SGN
This morning I switched off the airplane mode to be available, system crashed and restarted. And then still the same again - booting / android logo / restart again.. /./. I am using Android Revolution HD 2.1.5, for last month with no problems.
I tried to boot into recovery, then wipe the cache and reflash rom and radio from sd, it is still the same. I can see all the files on my int. sd with no probs.
Please help.
I'm thinking it might be a hardware issue, but I'll wait for another member's opinion before confirming.
Solved!!!
That's what I thought - HW prob, but it seems that luck is on my side, I hope. It helped to get back on stock but with total deletion including int partition
Anyway thanks for support.

Was your phone rooted or bootloader unlocked before the problem occurred?
Anyways I've sent in my phone for warranty, hopefully samsung will fix it.
So my phone company called me today and apparently Samsung told them that it's corrosion(?) problem. When I asked exactly what does that mean they said it's moisture damage or physical damage that probably caused it. But I'm confused how could my phone possibly get moisture damage inside an otter box. I know how delegate these devices are and I know how to take care of them.
Anyhow it'll be $90 to fix it. I had no other option so I asked them to go ahead with the repairs. So frustrated with Samsung to be honest. I never dropped my phone once, never had any water damage, phone was always inside the defender case. And I still have to pay them for fixing my phone even though it's not my fault.
That's quite worrying, I just started having boot loop problems today. I've had the phone since Feb 29th and not had a problem with it yet, but today it started boot looping. I went into recovery and did a factory reset, was alright for a couple of hours then it crashed, started bootlooping again. Running stock 4.0.2 unrooted, I'm wondering if flashing 4.0.4 might help.
I'm in the same boat.... unrooting stock 4.0.1 firmware - canadian version from Negri.
April 23rd my phone crashed and started boot looping. Google logo - reboot - Google logo - reboot
Factory reset worked. I installed less apps than I had before figuring perhaps an app was corrupting something.
Yesterday - it happened again. Phone crashed. Boot loop. Factory Reset worked. Installed even fewer apps.
We'll see what happens this time around. I am hoping it is just a software thing. Hoping 4.0.4 gets pushed soon too.....
I've been having the same issue, plus sometimes my home screen it would lock up and wouldn't let me do anything, so I did a battery pull and it would boot loop for a half hour.
After the 3rd time I just took it to my Verizon wireless store, and showed them the situation and they couldn't figure it out, so their sending me a replacement, which I'm not looking forward too, don't want a semi-used phone....
Via Galaxy Nexus [LTE]
Rebooting Issue Solved.
I was also a troubled Samsung Galaxy Nexus user and my phone kept restarting more than half a dozen times everyday. Most of the times when I switched between two or more applications, or when it was simply idle on my desk.
However, I found a solution (at least in my case). All I did was root my phone, install cwm recovery, and flash a custom rom after wiping cache and factory resetting the phone, It's been about 5 to 6 hours now since I flashed the custom rom and I haven't had a single reboot or hang since.
Others who face this problem, please give it a shot, who knows? You might save your Galaxy Nexus instead of sending it back to get a replacement or spend some money on it for repairs which aren't even required in the first place.
I also had this problem unrooted. I had to give it to Samsung for the warranty
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Trinity Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
I got my nexus yesterday, almost immediately after first start it start to install JB from OTA.
I did buy 2000mAh samsung original battery and started straight with it. not even testing with 1750mAh bat.
after installing JB and needed softwares, it started to randomly reboot.
it rebooted even it was just in my pocket.
sometimes when I did do something, display freezed and after about 5sec it rebooted.
Now I did changed to original 1750mAh, and it havent boot at all couple hours, even I did play angrybirds space.
I wont dare to root it before I am very sure problem is with 2000mah battery.

I could be wrong, but have you tried to clean the pin on the battery? Seems like battery and the phone isn't contracting too well
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
Little update, phone did continue rebooting with original 1750mAh battery also.
I did also reset with recovery mode, and after that it did also reboot one time.
like it uses all memory/cpu and when nothing to do reboot (like windows )
I also did flash stock rom with toolkit but no help.
I will test rooting phone and flash another rom, or is it useless ?
after using couple days, not yet rooted.
Phone works and wont reboot even in heavy stress. but sometimes it just reboots by own not a single program in task list.
might reboot right after previous reboot or take hours to reboot.
stupid phone
I have been done some research.
I did one more time reflash google stock with rootkit, and forgot lock phone, it was almost 3 hours by own in wifi, no reboots at all.
when I noticed that I forgot to lock it I rooted whole phone and installed paranoid android 2.13 with CWM.
Now Ive been using 2 hours without any reboot, installing software, setting things up and using apps.
I dont understand at all:silly:
edit: noup, yesterday evening one almost reboot, paranoid android did reset itself but didnt even reset uptime. so I didnt count that normal reboot.
but after wake up this morning, it did reboot once when I put in my pocket, another just lying on table, once activating bluetooth in my car.
going to send it back to seller.
I have a similar issue, although not quite the same. Last night my phone started boot looping - it managed to boot up to the lock screen, and I can use it for about a minute before it dies and then reboots. This continues again and again (I have to pull the battery to quit it).
I have stock JB on my GSM GN, but rooted with an unlocked bootloader / CWM. I restored my old CWM backup, and had the same issue. I also wiped the cache and the dalvik just to see if that helped, but I had the same issue. I then tried to do a factory reset in CWM, but after I did that the boot loop just got to the nexus logo and died, entering a new (slightly shorter) boot loop. I went back into recovery and reflashed my CWM backup, and that at least got me back to booting into android.
I can't understand what's going on - could it be a hardware issue if it will happily stay alive in recovery, but dies after 1-2mins of android?
Thanks for your help. If it is hardware then I hope I can reflash the stock recovery / bootloader and unroot through recovery... the phone doesn't stay on long enough to do it when it's booted into full android!
Hi everyone, (sorry for my english, I am French)
In June I decided to unlock the bootloader of my HTC One M8 * Edit * and I've rooted the phone and only that because I wanted to remove on screen buttons
Any ideas so?
I succeed, then one day I get an issue with bluetooth so I decided to reboot the phone.
From this moment the phone only reboot every time it restarted!
More or less after 70 seconds after the HTC Logo + music
I tried to factory reset and it worked but if I reboot it it comes again
I have succeed also one time by rebooting the phone with a USB cable I have still not understood why.
Since one month I haven't reboot the phone but today I have use it too much and it turned off because of the battery (0%)
Now it continues to reboot everytime...
Do you have any idea to help me because I have too much important thing on the phone and I can't just reset it every time...
Thank you
What other mods after unlocking the bootloader? I assume you must have done something (root, custom ROM) or why unlock the bootloader?
Yes I have rooted the phone and only that because I dislike completely the on screen buttons so I used an app to remove it from the screen. That was the reason I unlock the bootloader and then rooted the phone sorry I missed to say that
Any ideas so?

Hi,
I was just a casual android user, noo flashing, no rooting, no 52634 aplication.
But still today my phone stoped working all of a sudden. It wont get past google logo. All i can do is get to hold volume down+powerbutton. But then, recovery, restart bootloader does nothing.
Was reading some tutorials how to flash a stock rom... but theres a huge problem since my phone wont turn on, i cannot unlock bootloader.
I know my phone is still under warranty but i want to fix a problem by myself. I dont want to be without a phone for 45 days, cus i know how warranty works in my country.
here's what happened, the phone started freezing and restarting every 5 mins, I uninstalled some apps thinking that's what's causing it, I used it for around 10 minutes and it was fine, installed the latest security patch update, restarted and everything looked fine.
plugged it in, saw it had restarted again and it was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy A50 secured by Knox screen,
rn: I can't enter recovery mode, (the phone won't shut down and releasing the volume down and holding volume up thing doesn't work)
I can only enter download mode, Connected to Odin, flashed the latest firmware and it passed successfully, but still it gets stuck and won't boot.
any ideas?:crying:
anyone?

Are you sure you flashed correct firmware? Tried to factory reset in recovery? Full Wipe and then flash the firmware?
You can also try 'adb logcat' to see what the error is if adb is available..

I can only enter download mode when it's connected to pc with odin running
Could it be a hard drive problem?
And I'm pretty sure i got the right firmware
Tbh not sure i got my A50 just recently, didn't even flash anything yet. Is you phone detected when you type "adb devices" in windows cmd?

tried it, it doesn't recognize the phone.
is there anyway to figure out if it's a hardware issue?
cuz I've heard it's a somewhat common problem in the A50 for the hard drive/storage to go corrupt.

I am having a very similar problem to yours, so I will follow this thread. I was using my phone two days ago and it simply turned itself off and since then I am stuck in the logo screen. When the phone is loading I have no indication whatsoever of the battery percentage at all. I still can access option and factory reset and wipe cache (unlike you, apparently - but it does nothing for me). This simply does not help. I end up back at the logo Samsung Galaxy A50 screen. I have downloaded two different firmware... android 9 and 10 from Samsung mobile, and have used Odin to flash it. The process goes through ok and without errors. I get the pass message and the message that the phone is being updated. Then it is time for the logo screen again and form then on the phone simply does not start. I am lost. Can anyone help?

hey there.
apart from the factory reset thing it seems like we have quite the same problem,
at this point I'm afraid it might be hardware thing

You know... I am not really sure. The only different thing I did was to accept to instal a new firmware one or two days prior. I am inclined to think that was it. Anyway... I tried to flash Android 10... Android 9 (both via Odin) and did not work. The support team instructed me to do the hard reset a couple of times ... and wipe cache and nothing. Today I sent my phone to Samsung assistance since it is still under the guarantee because that is what they thought I should do. I'll keep you posted. Hope you can get yours fixed soon.

yh I installed that update too and this happened later the same night.
unfortunately for me all the shops n services are currently shut down because of the Co-Vid situation so i have to wait for now.
thanks for sharing, lemme know what happens.
I've had these same problems before. When flashing with Odin, don't populate the last slot with anything (the HOME_CSC slot). Flash it to the device without auto reboot on, restart the device manually and hold vol up + down to get to blue scrern, then unlock bootloader. Let it restart, then reflash ROM.
