I was using my GW normally, but my battery ended, so I putted on charge and turned on, but I wasn't able to do it. He stucks at boot before the system starts. I'm able to go to CWM and Download mode. I already tried to wipe cache and dalvik, but no progress.
I didn't do anything to soft brick him. I was listening to music, only.
I'm using CM9 eol + Honeyx Kernel + TouchWiz mods.
Should I try flash the CM9 eol + gapps, without any wipe?
Help me and thanks for the advance.

do full wipe ( format your system)
It isn't really a soft brick if you can go to CWM. Either you try to do a full wipe, otherwise flash back stock rom via Odin.

Can I get more info, like which rom did you flash, and how did you root your phone, what process did you take? Did you do wipes prior to flashing. Thanks, will try to help you out.
Go back into recovery and flash your backup or use Odin to flash a stock rom, your just in a bootloop. You mustve flashed a bad download.

Seanster_GBaxe EX v1.4.1:Taste of ICS is the rom... pretty much used odin to install cwm base recovery 5.0.2.6 I dont think i wipe prior to flashing. Once I installed the rom it booted fine but everything was slow and my phone kept getting errors, so then i went back in cwm and wiped all the data, now when i try to install the rom again it just takes like 5 seconds to install, i reboot the phone but it keeps going into a loop.... at this point i am pretty lost. I am new to this stuff... :/
How do i download this rom/kernel/mod........
Oh thats right its in the wrong section ah thats it no wonder i couldnt figure it out (sarcasm)

On a more helpful note just wipe and reflash another rom or a backup if you have it, if that fails odin to the stock rooted rom.

Did you goninto recovery and wipe cache dalvik and permissions. Or even better just factory reset after installing stock rom. Odin to stock doesnt faxtory reset your phone. Old files could still be lingering in there.

Try redownloading the rom, then in recovery make sure you are A. Wipe Factory Data Reset, B. Wipe Cache, C. Advanced Menu Wipe Dalvik D. Advanced Menu Wipe Battery Stats, E. Mounts/Storage Format Cache, System, Boot, Emmc, Then flash the Rom.
Silly question but are you installing 1.4 before flashing 1.4.1? Cause I think that ROM needs the 1.4 full flashed prior to flashing 1.4.1.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
can you give me a link to a stock ROM? the one i am using is SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID
so then I do what you just told me
A. Wipe Factory Data Reset, B. Wipe Cache, C. Advanced Menu Wipe Dalvik D. Advanced Menu Wipe Battery Stats, E. Mounts/Storage Format Cache, System, Boot, Emmc,
Then flash the Rom - Go into Odin and Select the file(click pda), then click start - correct?
Follow this to get to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462870
if phone isnt stock and you still have files there then do factory reset from phone or stock recovery.

Hi, I tried to install that ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414173
Installation seems to go properly but after rebooting nothing happens, just a black screen (I waited 30 minutes for something to occur, so don't tell me I don't have patience). But After that I couldn't neither run the backup recovery, and bricked my phone. Thanks god I was able to install stock firmware using Odin.
And now here goes my question:
What could have possibly gone wrong with the CM9 install? (I wiped the data/cache after installation)
Bad download maybe, as nobody ever reported this

Just from cwm.
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
I had the same, but if you flash it again, then wipe data and cache and then reboot, no problem at all
try this methode.
wipe data >> flash via cwm >> wipe data again..
hope, it can help..
Don't understand why..
I flashed the boot.img included in the zip via fastboot
then i went into recovery and installed FXPCM7
rebooted
Stuck on FreeXperia logo for 30mins.
Whats going on?
After you flash the kernel boot into recovery...
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
then go into advanced then wipe dalvik cache
Then flash the CM7.zip
Let me know how it goes - good luck
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- advance > dalvik cache
install FXPCM7
tried it, still stuck on FreeXperia logo
do i need to be on stock when installing it?
I am currently on the enhanced v2 firmware with doom kernel..
update:
tried stock too, doesnt work..
Hm try this
Redownload CM7
using flash tool flash this FTF - It has the newest baseband and largest user partiton
flash the kernel that came with CM7
Enter recovery and..
> factory reset
> wipe cache partiton
go into advanced and
>clear dalvik cache
Then install the CM7 zip from sd-card let me know how it goes
Thanks, but that was the firmware i was on.
I tried that method twice but the same thing kept happening to me
stuck at FreeXperia logo
Just to check if the problem is specific only to CM7 rom itself try installing another rom like Gin2Jellybean - Good luck
I have used various ROMS (all working perfectly) such as:
Gin2ICS/JellyBean
xDarkICS 4.0.3
Xperia NXT
JokaWild
Advanced Stock
So I think it may be just a problem with CM7?
Oh that's strange, try to download it again or try another build from here
tried the stable build now.. same problem :/
EDIT:
Tried flashing doom kernal, this time it actually boots.. touch screen doesnt work but it boots..
Is there another kernal i can use that works?
help please? would love to get cm7

I finally figured out how to do it. Go in CWM and delete user data, dalvik cache, cache, and then go to the Mounts and Storage menu, and Format the System Partition. Make sure not to clear the SD partition on accident. Anyways, this is the only way I could get it to work

Isnt the topic of this thread helping the op to get cm7 working on his phone? And you're talking about the circle button.
Sent from my Xperia Play
hello guys, when i did this method (flashing the rom) and worked fine but when i turned on my phone and get it into recovery mode (purple led) , Its not on CWM but in TeamWinrecovery, (i know that i have CWM installed and tried cwm recovery before any flashing) Sooo, i wipe data/ dalvik etc then installed CM10 and GAPPS, and reboot, now im stuck on the cyanogen logo, i kept on rebooting it and doing the same procedure (wipe data/dalvik, install cm10 gapps) same results. Stuck on cyanogenmod logo but the circle thing is still moving, I havent tried waiting for one hour or two on that cyanogenmod boot logo. Should i really flash any roms using CWM? how do i install CWM without the phone turning on? pls help
Update: Left it on cyanogenmod logo last night and i think my phone is now on low battery status, What should i do?

after formatting the system, wipe cache/data/dalvik, should i install gapps and cm10?
I have a 6.2.B.1.96 build LT26i Xperia S.
I rooted my phone using DoomLord and the recovery using cray_Doze methods.
Following ROM instructions and a myriad of other combos like formatting phone, wiping cache, dalvik cache, applying permissions, formatting /system etc. my phone gets bricked after I select reboot system or power off in the recovery menu.
After I press the. power button, it vibrates once and nothing shows up on the screen. Only way to get the phone running was to flash a stock ftf using FlashTool
I've tried multiple ROMs, including CM, SlimBean and PacMan, all of them yield the same result.
Is there anyway I can fix the problem?

Nope, I don't get any errors.
So you wipe system dalvik cache and data, flash the rom, and what do you do before and after gapps?

i dont realy always do it in that order, it just depends on how i remember it , sometimes i forget to wipe system, before flashing rom
Well check this
Make sure zip isnt corrupted, copying to your device can corrupt sometimes
ALSO does it do it with all ROMS?, if yes then i generaly cant help you now :/
