AT&T GSlll stuck at Cyanogen boot

new to rooting, flashing, etc.
Tried flashing CyanogenMod 6, I believe, using ROM Manager app. I downloaded the ROM to SD card and followed instructions to install. Now it's been stuck booting for an hour. I tried taking the battery out and going into recovery but it just gets stuck at the Odin screen with 'do not turn off target' message.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone.

CyanogenMod 6??? Why not CM9 or CM10? Did you root the phone ? Follow this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426

I'm not sure what version I attempted to install. It could've been CM9/10...
I did root the phone prior to doing all of this. I did as you suggested: go into recover and wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and fix permissions and when I reboot the phone, the Samsung logo pops up and vibrates, then nothing. I keep having to take out the battery to restart.

You can go to the tread I posted before, download and flash with odin stock rooted rom it should work. It did for me.

I downloaded the file to my desktop and when I use Odin to load, it cannot find the file type. I think it has to be a .tar file.
Thanks

Flash the rom twice, then see if that works.
Usually in rom manager it detects your phone and WON'T let you dl a rom not specific to your phone.

I suggest that you pay more attention to what your flashing and do some more reading. You can end up with a paperweight easily being this careless

You need to download a 7z file extractor its like zip or rar, Extract the stock_root67.tar from the .7z file you downloaded.

[Q] Pacman 19.1a not booting

Hello,
I'm having issues to get the Pacman 19.1a (GSM) to start. It's stuck at boot. I've tried flashing 19.1, which is booting fine, however this is not allowing me to enter a PIN code. This issue was reported fixed in 19.1a which is why I tried.
I'm using the following kernel: boot-HELLBOY-CM10-201212251747.img
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thanks!

As far as I know, I'm using the latest hellboy kernel. I've tried CM9 and CM10, but they both have the same effect. Should I be mistaken, could you provide me with a download link or version number I should get?
@brusell: So it seems I'm not the only one? I would have reported it in the ROM's topic, however my current postcount does not allow me to...

Resolved in Verdion 19.3
Just wanted to post the "solution"; the issue has been resolved in version 19.3.

Ok so I did a factory reset wiped cache and wiped dalvic, installed pacman 19.3 using twrp and then flashed hellboy kernel and rebooted, but I've been stuck at the pacman logo for 2 hours!! Did I do anything wrong? Can you tell me how u got out of it on 19.1?Do i just wait for the battery to die?

My device stuck on HTC Logo when I format it !!

My HTC One X stuck on "HTC One's Logo" every time I try to format it,
so I restore my backup which works fine and when I tried to format it the same thing happened.
Whenever I try formatting my device it stuck on the logo !!
Please I need your help, what should I do with this strange problem ??
- Updated on May 26 -
Everything was okay one month ago and I was able to format my device normally but know I can't
I tried almost everything:-
1. I formatted my device then installed the ROM & Boot.img (and I was sure that it will not help)
2. I formatted my device from ARHD Aroma installation
3. I restore my ARHD backup then formatted my device again from CWM Recovery
Tips: formatting from recovery don't touch system partition, I'm sure

What do you mean by format? You mean from custom recovery? Factory reset from bootloader?

Maybe because you delete everything ? And without sytem it won't boot.

If you Factory reset a custom rom, it will bootloop! Because there's nothing to boot beyond the logo!
1. Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then fastboot erase cache
2. Now go to recovery wipe data/cache/dalvic and then restore the nandroid backup.
3. Reboot. Let the OS load completely.
4. Go to bootloader and then do factory reset.
If your still bootlooping, then download a nandroid backup from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140 and then restore it! It will work flawlessly!
If you post your main-version, then we can also find a RUU for you?!

But I tried this lots of times before and it format only user data, and system partition remain as it is.
I forgot to say that also when I flashed ARHD and checked "wipe data partition" in Aroma, the phone also stuck.

Ok. start from zero.
Download again ARHD.
format sd card
Put ROM in Sd
Put this one in sd: http://d-h.st/kG0 (t.y for vin4yak for link)
Put boot.img in fastboot folder.
via cmd (i recomend to copy cmd into fastboot folder ((it automaticaly gives acces to that folder))) adb reboot-bootloader
type fastboot flash boot boot.img (fastboot must be in usb)
wait
reboot in recovery. install super wipe (link given)
clear catche, dalvik
install rom
clear catche, dalvik
And IF! it still got boot loop, go to bootloader and repeat fastboot flash boot boot.img command via cmd. It should work.
And after all, if it doesn't, do a full nandroid restore.
Good luck.

Formatting does only wipe cache and dalvic, you should still be able to boot. It does not get rid of Rom. I do it all the time when flashing a custom kernel. So maybe you should try as suggested above.
from my Viped out one x

Command: fastboot erase cache after flashing boot.IMG will fix it I guess. Looks like none of you do that but I always do that and never, I say never had a bootloop. And I switch ROMs weekly with wipes and all.
Hope it helps.

His question had nothing to do with flashing a boot.IMG, I've never not fast boot erase cache either. He was asking why when he hits the format button in recovery, his phone won't boot. Format in recovery simply wipes cache and dalvic so it should still boot, just like when you format after flashing the modules from a kernel.

O sorry for the misunderstanding.
So basicly OP asks "i took the fuel out of my car, why won`t it drive?"
Depends on wich recovery then cause in twrp a factory reset wipes not only cache and dalvik for sure!
From twrp site: A factory reset wipes data and cache (which includes dalvik cache). A factory reset will also wipe sd-ext and android_secure if your device has those items

Yes, I'm on ARHD. I mean by cleaning the rom is to format it to return fast as it was.

Thanks all for your help but unfortunately all in vain
Before a month I was able to format without any problem, but now I can't.
I tried almost everything:
1. I formatted my device then installed the ROM & Boot.img (and I was knowing that it will not help)
2. I formatted my device from ARHD Aroma installation
3. I restore my ARHD backup then formatted my device again from CWM Recovery
All these attempts but in vain, please I need your help essentially, I need to format my device as I was doing before.

Stuck at Google/flashing the wrong kenel

OK. I flashed the wrong kernel on my new Nexus 7 (2013). My stupid, I flashed the kernel (franco) for the old Nexus 7 on the new one.
Luckily, I can still access bootloader and recovery (TWP). Now it's stuck at Google (again, I can still go to bootloader and recoery).
Where can I find the stock kernel that I can use? Or Can I flash a custom kernel?
Thank you in advance and I appreciate every comment.

I recommend flashing a custom kernel.

Have you considered trying this which will return your Nexus 7 to its original factory settings with a stock image? I haven't used this method but it may get your tablet working again. Also, for future reference, you should always make a nandroid backup before you flash something new in case you run into problems like this.

Wiping the cache/dalvik cache usually works for me when it would hang on the boot screen after a flash.

I did it but nothing changes

Do you have a ROM installed?
Try restoring to factory settings, reflashing a ROM, and then flashing the kernel. Wipe cache/dalvik once you're done and see if that works.

Try flashing the stock rooted ROM here.
To restore to factory settings, go to "Wipe" then slide the slider at the bottom of the screen.

Thanks cyberprodigy and Username invalid for helping me.
I fixed it.
After flashing 2 custom kernels (all of them were said to be completed install) but I was stuck at Google.
So I tried to flash a stock kernel (I downloaded it from here, sorry for hotlink-ing from another forum: http://droidbasement.com/asus/razor/flo/sys-backup/jb-4.3_ota-full_n7_razor-flo.zip). I will also uploaded the stock kernel file extracted from that link in case somebody needs it but doesn't want to download the whole Stock ROM.
The file extension is .img, so for people not knowing how to flash this file, use this command
"fastboot flash boot <the file name.img>"
Thanks again.
Here is the llink to the stock kernel for N7(2013). it's 16Mb so I can't attach it.

Restoring stock rom using CWM, stuck while booting on htc one v

Hi ,
I installed CWM and I took the backup of the stock rom.
then flashed with new boot.img and installed MIUI rom, this is working fine.
I did wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and Wipe Dalvik Cache. after that I restored stock rom using CWM, restore went fine.
when I reboot phone stuck in boot loop with htc logo.

If your phone is not S-Off then restore can't update boot partition and you have to flash old boot.img manually.
The same way as you did when installing MIUI rom but different kernel image (boot.img compatible with stock rom).

My Phone has s-on....
I will find the stock rom supported kernel and flash before restoring the stock rom.
or
I will try to make s-off and restore.
either of one would be fine rite?

Yes, either should be fine., but the first method is much more easier I guess.

And you may flash the right kernel even after restoring or flashing a rom.
