[Q] boot problems cm11 - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

im having problems upgrading to cm11 i already know how to wipe data, cahe, dalvik and install the roms the problem is it boots then on the cyanogen logo it freezes then reboots and keeps doing it ive tried factory reset redownload the rom and gapps but nothing seems to work
i am clockwork recovery 6
cm11
gapps 4.4.2 core 1-16

What exact version of cwm do you have, also try flashing the boot.img on the phone. Extract the zip, find the boot.img and place it in the root of your platform tools folder on you're computer, boot into fastboot on your phone, initiate the command: fastboot flash boot boot.img
It will send the boot. If you're on Mac do: ./fastboot flash boot boot.img
If it is a confirmed write of the boot.img, reboot the device.

S-off or s-on? If s-on I would suggest flashing the boot.img via the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You say you can get past the boot screen of CM 11? Its more than likely you need to flash the boot.img in fastboot.

Those things do not correlate, that has to do with the phone ram going to zip and the system not being able to reclaim it

Are you unlocked and rooted?
Have you installed CWM?
If so, can you boot sucessfully to it?
Are you using the GN Toolkit?
Bit more info as to what you have done so far would be helpful...

All six img files were flashed successfully. Device rebooted and stuck on New Jellybean logo. To be sure what I did is right I did the same steps for ICS img files and it boots to ICS without any problem ,,,

When you are booted in fastboot mode, does it indicate that you are on the lc03 bootloader and xxlf1 radio?

What happens when you boot into CWM?
If you have a JB ROM image on your flash then you should be able to completely wipe the phone (system, data and dalvik (under advanced options)), install the new ROM then boot it up.
Having a phone that hangs during boot is usually symptomatic of not having wiped the phone properly when flashing a new ROM.

I did all kind of wipe !!!
Try this: Make sure you have the JRO03C boot and system images handy (i.e., in the same directory as your fastboot.exe file), reboot into fastboot mode and type the following command in a terminal:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system.img
fastboot flash boot.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot reboot
EDIT: Note that it should take 5-10 mins to boot up.

Still nothing ...but there is something I should mention ... I was in JB before one month .. then I got back to ICS cos JB still in the first stages as custom Rom. Then I flags ics miui rom and work great then I flashed miui update and it was corrupted and get many problems till I fix it by going back to stock ICS. Now do you think this is the issue ???

Going back and forth should have nothing to do with it. But it really does sound like you're not wiping one of the needed things first which mixes your ICS and JB files.
I'd suggest that you download something like CM10 and AOKP build1, go to CWM and do ROM Wipe/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, and Wipe Dalvik. These are the 3 you need to do. Then install zip from SD - your new ROM. Then install gapps for JB. Boot up. If you use Titanium Backup, don't restore any system data.
Yes I do

Screwed up my One X

I tried installing a custom rom today and I think I messed up really bad, because my phone does not get pass the boot screen and I cannot enter the recovery setting. I think I messed up after entering
fastboot flash boot boot.img
in the command prompt and restarting because I forgot to put the rom zip on my phone. Since then I could not get pass the boot screen and even tried running a backup using CWM, but it didn't help. I then managed to mount my phone and put the rom onto it and installed it, but again it didn't help.
Now my phone can only enter the bootloader, I select hboot and fastboot, but nothing else works. Everytime I select recovery or factory reset I get the htc boot screen and it gets stuck. Does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks
did u backup your phone rom???
if you did u can go to recovery and restore it
and never try to change rom again trust me in that
otherwise i can't help bcuz i did the same mistake
I did make a backup, but like I said I can't enter recovery anymore, so I can't load the backup.
Thanks for trying to help anyway though.

What HBOOT version do you have and what custom ROM are you trying to install?
edit: you didn't need to restart after changing boot.img cause in Recovery you can just go Advanced and then mount USB and copy the ROM or whatever files you want that way.

I have hboot 1.39.0000 and I was trying to install the latest cyanogenmod cm-10-20130106-NIGHTLY-endeavoru.
Yeah I realized this after I restarted and did it get the zip onto the phone. I think I installed it, but the phone is still stuck on the boot screen
UPDATE: Okay I've managed to install CWM recovery, so I think I'm making progress
You had to flash CWM again? Odd..
Anyway, if you happen to encounter the same problem with CM10 I suggest you try some other custom ROM.. Just make sure you "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and then "fastboot erase cache", and if for some reason you decide to format the sdcard or simply forget to add in the ROM zip, you can do it in Recovery when you mount the device as USB under Advanced options. Best of luck!

Yeah CWM didn't load up, but I got it working again. Well it seems I'm back to getting the rom to install and being stuck at the boot screen again, so maybe I just need to use a different rom. Thanks for the help though
Okay, I've tried installing a few roms, but unfortunately I'm still on the boot screen, I can sometimes even reach the cyanogenmod boot screen, but get stuck there. I've read that this might be kernel issue, does anyone have any ideas?
CM10 requires a special boot.img for newer hboots. Check post 9308 in CM10 thread.

[Q] Bootloop help

I've been hitting boot loops left and right. After beups s-off method, I succesfully flashed custom recovery and a ROM, but I accidentally flashed an international version of a kernel. During the aroma installer it froze and I restarted the phone, but now it will not boot normally or into recovery. I've tried to flash the stock kernel but I still can not get into recovery. Any advice? I've tried different recoveries and erased fastboot cache before each flash
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I did a factory reset through the fastboot, reflashed the recovery img and wiped the recovery cache and it allowed me to run cwm. Then, since I was having issues mounting, I used CWM's sideload program in their recovery that allowed me to flash roms without having to put them on the SD card. Where are you stuck at?

[Q] Keeps bootlooping no matter what I do

So I already posted before about a bootloop issue I had. I fixed it by completely rerooting from scratch by following Cyanogens wiki (including changing the firmware) and then it worked for a while, but then it started bootlooping again (no matter which ROM) I used. Then I rerooted it from scratch again and this time it's only been like a week and its starting to bootloop again. I have no idea what to do anymore, I mean seriously, what else there is to do, since I've already tried rerooting/reflashing?
EDIT: Could it be because I chose the wrong way to downgrade when rooting? Like in the cyanognemod vision rooting guide there are 2 options for downgrading, depending on if you have gingerbread or froyo. Everything did work when I did it, though, so I don't think it would be because of this.
Can't say for sure, try and grab a logcat or last_kmsg
Also boot to bootloader and write down everything on that screen

Everything looks good, kernel never panics and shuts off and logcat shows mostly normal startup processes. Maybe can you explain more your situation, like if you were to wipe all right now and than flash a new ROM would it work? Then latter on you get a bootloop, or will new ROMs just not flash at all?

I've tried Cyanogenmod 7 and 2 other custom roms, all three just bootloop. Could it be a hardware issue?
And yeah I can install roms just fine, they bootloop after booting up, like a few seconds after it has started up.
I wouldn't call it hardware just yet, each time you flash a new ROM does the bootanimation change? Also let's make sure you wipe everything before flashing a new ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
Here, in the first post, you will find a super wipe script and aio formatting script
Download these and put on sdcard
Now boot to bootloader and run these commands through fastboot (see the above link if you need help setting up fastboot)
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
Now boot into recovery and flash both the superwipe and aio wipe tool (just like flashing a ROM)
The above is overkill yes, but its best to be sure you wipe clean when having issues like yours
Now once complete do your standard wipes from recovery and flash ROM plus proper gapps (if needed)
Let me know what happens here
If in a bootloop can you grab some new logs again, preferably with the full bootloop in them

Yes the boot animation does change. Also, is there another way to do fastboot erase system -w and fastboot erase boot, without doing them through fastboot, because I'm on Windows 8.1 x64 and I've found no way to get fastboot drivers to work on this machine. Adb for example does work, so can I do it through that somehow?
EDIT: I didn't do the fastboot erase, but I did flash the superwipe and aio wipe tool and now after flashing a ROM, it has been stable for a few minutes now. I don't know if the bootloop will return, because previous times it had returned even after a week or two, but then again I had never used these wipe roms before, so who knows what will happen. We'll see, thanks!
