Stuck in CWM recovery loop - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I'm trying to flash NEXPlay onto my device and I'm having a problem, my phone keeps going into a CWM recovery loop. I've tried twice to get this to work to no avail.
There are no instructions on how to flash the ROM correctly on the thread from what I've seen so I followed the steps provided on my other ROM's thread (NXT Lite). I flash the .58 Enhanced firmware using FlashTool and then select "FastBoot" and then "Reboot into fastboot mode (Via ADB)". I then click "Select kernel to Flash" and flash the Kernel that is required.
The phone then boots to recovery so I cleared the cache partition, Delvik cache and wipe data. I flash the ROM and it takes a while (probably due to the size) and finally it says "Successful". I select "Reboot system" and the phone shuts down, displays the "SONY NEXPLAY" logo and then boots into recovery. I keep restarting and it keeps doing this.
Any ideas on how to fix this? If it persists I might just go back to NXT Lite. I have an R800i model with unlocked Bootloader.
*EDIT* I just installed exitrecovery.zip and that doesn't work either. I have no idea what is going on.

Phone keeps rebooting randomly, not charging

Help me please.
I was previously on ARHD ICS and i decided to try CM10. I did a wipe and flashed paranoid cm10 in CWM, then flashed the boot.IMG and then cleared cache etc.
However, the phone starts up, boots in to cm10...but doesn't charge anymore. It also reboots randomly when i use it and it get s stuck in a loop for a while and then it boots into cm10 fine again.
I've tried loads of different rome and its doing the same thing. PLEASE help.

Desperate here anyone,?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
Did you do a full wipe before flashing (/system, /data and /cache)?
Yep. Numerous times. I have no idea what it's doing. It will boot into the android system, I'll use it for 5 minutes or so without issue, then all of a sudden the 'shutting down' dialog appears with Android System in written at the top in the background..This is on all the roms i tried.
Very Easy To Fix This Problem
First You Must Unlock Your HOX ....
Flash Stock Recovery .... Then Do Factory Rest From BootLoader .
Now Extract "boot.img" From The Rom You Want To Flash ( use winrar/7-Zip )
Flash "boot.img" You Extracted From Fastboot By THis Command
Fastboot Flash Boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Now Flash ClockModRecovery And Open It
Mount Use Storage From Recovery then Copy Your rom.zip To HOX .
Do Full Wipe From Recovery
And Now Install The Rom From The Recovery ........ and restart your phone
if your HOX stuck on first boot just reboot the phone and wait ...
sorry for bad english ...
I've already flashed the boot.img. This isn't the first time i've flashed a rom
Ok ..... do you try factory rest ?
Your Must Do Factory Rest And The Stock Recovery Only Can Do That
Flash The Stock Recovery ( Download From Attachments "StockRecovery.Zip" )
Fastboot Flash Recovery rstock.img
Then Back To HBOOT Menu And Do "FACTORY REST"
Now Flash "Boot.Img" For Your Custom Room " Must Flash Boot.Img First Then Flash The rom As I Know "
And The Other You Know
The Trick Here Is Format Your SdCard Completely By "Factory Rest"

Bootloop in recovery

hi,
for the past hours i'm trying to flash skynote 9.3 after long time on some other 4.1.2 rom and i am having troubles after the flash, i wipe system, cache, dalvik, etc but after i select reboot now i get a prompt about root is missing with a No option and a yes (Install root) , the phone goes to samsung logo and then after a second reboot goes back to recovery! I have tryed twrp 2.8, cmw6.0.4.3 and phliz
i search througt the forums and the closest thing i came up is with this post
i have tried a stock firmware from odin first in case it was the bootloader...
any thoughts?
Hmm i dont know why but i have same problem on my Alcatel 4034x, until i bricked recovery and it booted into system without problem except now it looks like rom is poorly made, it automatically filled up dalvik and cache partitions and now i cant boot into recovery, fastboot or system. Its just stuck on alcatel logo. I also tried to flash it with sp flash tool, didnt work cuz drivers arent "signed" for some reason. Someone help me too pls

Unable to Reset - Strange behavior

Hi everyone,
yesterday my beloved galaxy nexus started rebooting continuously. I did not even touched it. The loop is continuing still now without any reason. Usually, in this occasions, I've performed a clean/hard reset (I don't know the correct term), wiping system, data, cache and dalvik partitions, flashing a new rom and bla bla..
The very strage thing today is that I'm not able to do that. I'm using the TWRP custom recovery: if I wipe something or perform a factory reset (standard in twrp) it starts the process, gives me at the end the advice that everything has gone well, it even allows me to flash a new custom rom and gapps but when I reboot, nothing has changed. It reboots in the previous system, nothing erased and again with the reboot loop.
I've just tried also using fastboot interface. Any command I launched performed its task, the phone gives a positive ending but when I reboot again, it's like nothing happened.
Specs: Galaxy Nexus Maguro, GSM version. Actually running a 4.4.4 rom (SlimKat) with its own kernel. A lot of customization (writing/formatting) in the past 2 years.
Thanks in advance for your help!

My phone reboots in 10 sec after he boots. I can not install flashify and not even flash cwm recovery.
The same here
I'm having the same problem here, it seems that It's not saving any change I try to make, as you've described it says that every task was performed ok but after rebooting it has all my apks, data etc. even afer wiping.
The only thing I can make to keep it ON, is to enter in SAFE MODE, then I can save my pictures and data but I can't flash anything (well I can but it make no change).
FACTS:
-If you start the phone and you activate USB debugging, after rebooting it's not active anymore
-It shutsdown after 10 secons entering in a boot loop (unless you use SAFE MODE, that way you can keep it on)
-If you wipe data, wipe cache, flash boot, flash bootloader, flash system, unlock boot loader, root it, restore, flash stock + unroot (using nexus root toolkit v2.0.5) or use any flash option of fastboot via command line including update, you will get task perfomed ok but nothing is changing; after rebooting It shutsdown after 10 secons entering in a boot loop and all my data including APKs, pictures etc are still in the device.
-You can boot in Download mode, Recovery mode
Phone spec.:
Galaxy Nexus GSM/HSPA+
Android 4.3.0 JWR66Y
Product name: Tuna
Variant: Maguro 16GB
Bootloader Version: PRIMEMD04
Base Band Version: I9250XXLJ1
Lock State - Locked (You can easily unlock it but after reboot it'll be locked again)

twrp causes bootloop

Hey everyone, i got a neat little problem with my one X.
I wanted to install Resurrection Remix LP v5.5.0 according to this Thread.
So first of all I flashed twrp 2.6.3.0 to my phone and tried to install RR 5.5.0., which threw me an error (because of layout differences).
I moved on by flashing another recovery twrp2811.BiG to my phone and booted into it, np. So i wiped everything, I think it was the advanced wipe option, I ticked every checkbox and swiped to wipe.
After a short time my phone blackscreened back into the bootloader and when I tried to enter recovery again, it displays the twrp logo for a short time, then crashes and reboots.
Since theres no Android to boot, it repeats it's bootloop. I tried flashing twrp2853-BiG, twrp-2.6.3.0-endeavoru,twrp-2.6.1.0-endeavoru. Fastboot flashes the recoveries and right before my phone restarts it even shows the correct "recovery splash screen" according to the current recovery image flashed.
When I flash recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-endeavoru and boot into recovery everythin works, but I can't manage to mount my USB storage anymore.
But that almost doesn't matter since I need twrpXXXXBiG to flash the latest Resurrection Rom, but I cant get any twrp recovery back to work (erase cache didn't help at all).

S.O.S Galaxy S3 Boot-Up Fails (Recovery Mode BOOTLOOP)

Ok guys im in some really deap ****. This is what happend
I was trying to flash my SGH-T999 with cm-2xxxxxxNIGHTLY-d2lte to get the 4.4.4kitkat upgrade. Rooting with clockworkmod using Odin V1.85 was succesfull. I got into recovery mode, wiped data factory, /cache, and /delvik cache/ and i went on to install zip from sdcard. The installation failed, tried severals times and it still fails. And when i try switching it on, it boots with the SAMSUNG Logo and goes back off, then comes back on again with a "Recovery Booting" written on the top left hand corner of the screen, and then it boots into recovery mode. When i hit Reboot System, it does same thing. I have tried downloading the recovery but my SD-Card slot seems to be damage of which the recovery needs to be put on, and more so i cant detect if the memory card i install is ready or not.
Flash twrp to the phone. Cwm has not been updated for a while.
A few months ago I flashed TWRP 2.8.7.0 using Heimdall just fine, no problems. Now I've been trying to flash the latest TWRP 3.0.2, I can't seem to get it to boot, the flash is successful. Then I reflash the older version, and it's not booting into recovery. I'm not too familiar with Samsung phones, but I've been doing this for a long time on my Moto X 2014 using ADB/Fastboot, without issues.
I was able to return to stock firmware using Odin.
