So I have CWM and I was going to flash AOKP, and the creator had said to wipe data, wipe cache etc, and to format the system. So I did that and now I hold all of my buttons down to enter CWM, and it initally brings up the text, "Samsung" and at the top it says it's booting into CWM, but then it vibrates and it goes blank then says Samsung again and then doesn't do anything. I also can see when it is plugged in as the battery comes up, but then disappears after a bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

your phone not brick --- do exactly what you are doing but when you see "Samsung" and at the top it says it's booting into CWM "unhold the power button but still holding the vol up and home on until bring the CWM

...you were IN cwm when you did the wipe, bro. hold down volume up + home + power. when the phone vibrates, let go of the power button. when you see the blue wording on the top left corner, let go of vol up and home. after samsung splash screen you should be in recovery (cwm)
Yeah, same thing happens here, u can't get into recovery if u has full wipe, after u full wipe and cache etc. u don't need to get turn off and boot to recovery,, just flash the rom after full wipe. And now u need to repair it or reflash older kernel and rom, root and flash new kernel and do what I says and install new rom and reboot, yeah it all done

While booting a back up of MIUI 1.1.28.1 my phone rebooted went through the process fine, then right after I got past the lock screen it shut off, and I couldn't turn it back on. Just before this I updated to the newest Clockworkmod 3.0.0.7. I thought my phone was done for so i let it sit for the night on the charger in the morning i tried to turn it on using the power and volume down button and it booted into recovery so I went along and tried a normal reboot, same thing got to the lock screen, powered down on it's own again. I've been trying to turn it on again now just to get it into recovery and maybe work with it there but it's not going for it. Any suggestions?
Since you can get to recovery screen it is not bricked. In general you can not brick by flashing a rom, only brick by flashing non-working radio or hboot
Here is how to fix it.
1) Download another ROM to the SD Cards. Pick a stable one, I recommend CM6.1
2) Boot into recovery and enter Clockworkmod
3) Wipe everything (Cache/Data/Dalvik cache)
4) Flash new rom in recovery
I got into recovery once after the initial shut dow, now i'm having the same problem as prior it simply will not turn on i've tried most combinations of the buttons and nothing seems to work any suggestions for getting it into recovery again? I realize that I need to boot another rom now but I need to get the phone on first haha. Thanks again
There's only one combination that should boot into recovery.
Turn it on holding down the volume up arrow. If it doesn't do that then you may have seriously messed up or even bricked your phone.

Volume down* up is qualcomm diagnostics. And that's to get into HBOOT, not recovery lol. Also, holding down on the optical trackpad works just the same as if you're holding volume down.

d. Volume down key to highlight recovery, then use press the power button to enter recovery.
2) You should now be in CWM Recovery. Now it is time to wipe everything.
a. Select "wipe data/factory reset"
b. Select "wipe cache partition"

That should do it! Let me know if you need anything else.

This happened to me yesterday, and here is how I eventually fixed it.
Let the phone boot up as far as it would go.
Pluged in my USB to PC
Ran reflash_package.exe from unREVOlked
Booted up normally.
Hope this solves your issue.

Thanks everyone got it all figured out it ended up being something really simple I just jumped to thinking my phone was done for, thanks for all your help!
Slong427 could you let me know what your fix was? i have been plagued with this issue for two days now and any rom i try gets to the unlock screen and shuts down. thanks, ian

have you wiped data/cache yet? looks like you havent, because if you did, you wouldnt get bootloop after flashing an sbf. enter stock recovery (when switched off, hold volume down, and then press the power button. hold them down till the m logo shows up. after that, a triangle with an android figure will show up, press vol up and vol down az the same time), wipe cache/data, and try again!

This morning I tried to flash Blackout ICS Incredible. I am currently stuck on stuck green logo with white backgroud forever. I am using CWM touch recovery. I can not get to cwm, bootloader or Hboot menu. Only way i can reboot is to take out the battery. Once I put the battery in and let it boot, it goes back to logo screen and gets stuck. Then I took out the battery again and put it back it and press power button while pressing down vol- button, and it goes back to same logo screen and stuck. Again if i take out the battery and put it back it, and if I press the power button while pressing down the vol+ button, the phone vibrates 3 times and goes blank(dark) with battery indicator light blinking(i am not sure if that is battery light).
Any help would be appreciate. I am trying to connect to adb or fastboot, but it does not connect to the phone yet.
Pull the battery, wait five minutes.
Press and hold the volume down button, then press the power button. Don't let go. Wait.... wait, should go into recovery.
Full wipe.
Format data/factory reset.
Wipe dalvik
Format all partitions except sd card.
Restore a back up.
Then read how to get that rom working. Been posted too many times as for me to repeat it. Check the thread somewhere below yours, the title of the thread I believe is the same as the rom, answer is there.

Just saw the HBoot screen but lost it. What I did was, took out the battery, sdcard, SIM. Replace the battery but not the cover of the battery. Then I hit power and volume(plus/minus) button, the HBoot menu came up, but because the batter cover was not placed, the menu was lost when I did not hold the phone tight, meaning batter got loose. Now I am trying to get back to HBoot menu again after replace battery and cover but to no avail. I still have sdcard, SIM out of the phone. I think there is some combination of keys you've to press coming out from cold boot vs. not. will keep on trying unless someone already knows.

That is common flashing that rom. Choose full wipe in aroma installer even if you did it manually. When the flash is done, don't choose to reboot with aroma installer...DO IT MANUALLY from recovery!!...that should solve it...:good:
The same happened to me and found that solution in their thread.

I was able to get to HBoot, choose recovery, came up with CWM touch, did the wipe data/app, delvic, cache, did format /data, /* all the mentioned other than /sdcard. Then went to install from sdcard and choose that Blackout rom. went through the installer but at the end chose not to reboot from the installer as suggested. Then came back to CWM touch menu and did the reboot from there. It stuck on that logo screen again for 5 minutes. Now again took out the battery for few minutes, and want to go back to HBoot, but could not. Do I have to take out SDCARD as well, Do not think so but not sure. And why do we have to take out battery for so long, any idea, taking battery out for a minute isn't enough?
5 minutes just in case.
You missed one step. Wipe from aroma as well.

Should work without battery pull as long as you power off. But when it doesn't, battery pull.
Just volume down, the power, both pressed till it turns on.
Oh, and fastboot unchecked
Edit: if it stll doesnt work, could be a bad download.

After monkeying around with this ROM for a day, it was actually problem with CWM recovery. It looks like this ROM is not compatible with this recovery. I replaced cwm with 4ext recovery and voila I was able to flash this new ROM. Thank you guys so much for helping out. This community is really great to be part of.

I had the same problem after unlocking the bootloader on HTCdev. After a lot of searching, it seems that the HTC process keeps the boot partition locked from recovery but not from fastboot.
I was able to get around this by unzipping the Rom and flashing boot.IMG using fastboot and then flashing the Rom again.

I think I bricked my phone:crying:. I have TWRP 2.3 and I performed a backup. Then, I did a factory wipe, wiped cache, and wiped dalvik cache. I thought that I had already moved b-reezy's stock rom to my phone, but when I went to install it, it wasn't there. So, I restarted it and plugged it in to my computer and moved the file to my phone. Then, I powered off my phone. Then held the volume-up button and the power button to go into TWRP, but it didn't go there. All it has done is flashed the LG logo then go to a lit black screen. I've tried pressing up and down on the volume buttons but that doesn't do anything. The only thing I can do is hold the power button for a few seconds and it restarts and does the same thing- just flashes the LG logo and then goes to a lit black screen. Please help!

Hold power and vol up buttons for a while (maybe 10 seconds or more) until the phone reboots. Once it reboots (screen black), immediately let go of those buttons, and hold the vol down rocker, don't let go of vol down until the bootloader screen comes up. If the HTC logo screen comes up again, just repeat the process, as you probably just started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early.
Once into bootloader, adb push a known good ROM to the phone (or put a ROM removable SD). Install the ROM in TWRP.
And let this be the lesson to NEVER wipe anything unless you know exactly what it means and what the result will be. Then double check and triple check what you have selected before confirming the wipe.
Those TWRP options are under "Advanced Wipe" for good reason. And the TWRP wipe screen also says for the default wipe that "Most of the time this is the only wipe that you need". Again, it says for for good reason.
