hi, had my hox for a few weeks and all been smooth till today, i changer my rom to viper and flashed boot using the viper flasher. got bored of the rom and switched to jelly bean, followed steps properly. flashed boot erased cache, the only thing i did different was wipe dalvic or davlic. now i cant get anything to boot i can get to bootloader and recovery fine ive tried flaashing several roms but they all get stuck at the jtc boot screen? what have i done ive tried flashing superwipe and clearing everything and stil nothing? help please
A quick search could have solved your issue. But here is some help since a new thread has already been open. Re download the rom and boot.img and check the MD5 values. Get into fast boot and do commands:
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then get into recovery and wipe system, data, cache and dalvic cache. The install rom. Wipe cache and dalvic cache again to be safe. If the rom doesn't boot then you aren't following my instructions properly.

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

Hello mates, I recently unlocked my boot loader, rooted, nandroid backup, then installed trips cm10 (in that order)..
My problem is when I boot into recovery I can't restore my nandroid backup of my original sense ROM.. when I restore the backup and reboot my phone just boot loops on HTC splash screen..
I tried fast boot erase cache but no luck..
Can someone guide me to restoring my nandroid.. am I doing something wrong??

Extract the boot.img file from the nandroid backup. Flash it through fastboot.
Fastboot erase cache.
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go into recovery
Wipe data/cache & dalvik cache
Restore the nandroid
Reboot
It should boot now.
Good luck

When I extract the boot.img, do I leave a copy of it in the nandroid..
I copied the boot.img to my fastboot folder a copy of it is still in the nandroid folder.. do I need to completely remove it?

No you don't.
You don't need to do anything with the nandroid beside copying the boot.img.

ok i just followed the instructions and it still bootloops
Best way to do it mate without losing any data is first restore your nandroid backup.
Next reflash your rom you were using without wiping.
Next go straight to fastboot and flash the boot image as above and erase cache,
Then go to recovery and wipe dalvik cache and flash custom kernel.
If your were using stock kernel .
Then go straight to fastboot first and flash the boot image as above and erase cache,
Then go to recovery and wipe dalvik cache and flash ROM.
This happened to me when i tried a nandroid restore.

were you using any custom kernel on your stock before taking the backup??
Hi. I have a Galaxy Nexus (GSM, maguro, I9250). I use stock Android 4.2.1 (JOP40D), unlocked, rooted (with CWM recovery).
Recently, I've tried to flash several different ROMs.
After every attempt, I got stuck on the boot animation (5+ minutes).
First, I tried to install CyanogenMod 10 (build is the latest stable for maguro from get.cm) together with a gapps package.
This made me get stuck on the boot animation. Restored, tried again without gapps, same result.
Then, I flashed TWRP recovery and tried installing the same build again (without gapps).
Still got stuck on boot animation.
Back to CWM, I got the latest stable build of AOKP for maguro from the offical website's downloads page.
Tried to flash that (without gapps), same result. Stuck on the boot animation.
I'd really appreciate some help with this.
Might sound stupid but... did you wipe ?

Factory reset before different roms.. guess you just posted that ya did wipe. How about both dalvik cache and regular cache? fastboot erase cache?

I'll try installing AOKP with fastboot erase cache instead of CWM's "wipe" functionality.
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.
