In need of help!
I have a rooted Galaxy Nexus. I have been having many problems since it was rooted (will not connect to Google I think...? WiFi signal grey), but if possible I'd like to keep it rooted. I used Nexus root toolkit and SuperSU seemed to mess everything up. For a while after I uninstalled SuperSU it worked OK. Then later they WiFi signal went gray again so I factory reset this morning. Internet seemed to work (even though it was still gray) so I went about finding replacements for Google apps online because my Google apps didn't work(Google play, YouTube, etc). About an hour later suddenly my screen froze then my phone crashed. When I attempted to restart it stayed on the blue, green, red, yellow, X for 2hrs. I decided to pull the battery and put it in boot loader. Instead of what boot loader normally says it instead said "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" When I tried to use the volume keys to change the "Start" sign it did nothing. My only option (I think) was to press the power/sleep button to try to turn it on. Just like before though, it stayed in boot loop.
I'm sorry if this was too long... I'm new to XDA, could somebody please help me?
Thank you
Oh and this whole time I didn't have any form of superuser installed...
Can anyone help?
Does anybody know what to do? Please help me!

Just happened this morning, while using my non-rooted stock gsm gn. All of a sudden it turned off and rebooted, but can't get past the google screen... it goes back to black screen then google screen... pls help!
This happened to me aswell, like three hours ago.
A full battery load during night and then I used it for navigating to a customer, sent a SMS. When I check the phone later the white led is flashing to tell me I got a new notification.
But the phone won't wake up, so I pull the battery and now it is stuck at the Google logo, it never comes to the boot animation. It is freezing with the Google logo and it can't be turned off.--- without pulling the battery
I'm running OTA update 4.0.2 the phone is not rooted.
Still stuck!
This I have tried to no avail:
Via fastboot unlock the bootloader, hangs.
Via Odin reinstall image (ICL53F), hangs (aborted after 10 minutes of waiting)
Odin hangs at "NAND Write Start!!"
To me it seems like I've lost the flashmemory...
If no other solutions is recommended I guess I have to return the device... GAAH!
Also tried:
Code:
fastboot -w
Went for lunch and came back, but that command aslo hanged.
Update
Update.
My Galaxy Nexus is now running again, after a motherboard replacement done at a Samsung serviceshop.
I was trying out using a keyboard with a cheap USB OTG cable, and all was good. Then all of the sudden the screen went buggy, where ever other line of pixels was shifted to the left or the right, almost like some sort of corrupted video file. It started to reboot itself, and it got to the black screen with the Google logo and then the screen fuzzed in the same way as before. It then starts to reboot and does the same thing over and over again. I find that I can get to the recovery screen with the scroll arrows. From there, if I tell it to reboot into recovery it goes back into the same Google logo bootloop. I then went back to the original recovery screen and I decide to try out adb to see if it works. Sure enough it does, and I unwisely start flashing a stock 4.2 bootloader image. However, while it is flashing the screen does the same fuzz thing and and stays fuzzed. Then it doesn't respond to anything. I take out the battery, and try to restart and with will not turn on at all, no vibration, no light from the screen, nothing. I tried a unbricking methods from there, and nothing can make it come back alive. Any ideas?
Additional info:

Phone's been slowly giving me more and more issues. Today I was using it fine, turned off the screen, a bit later, tried turning it on and nothing. This has been a common occurrence, about once a day I have to do a battery pull or plug it in to make the screen turn on, then all is normal. Battery pull got it to boot to the splash screen, but then nothing. Plugged it in, and nothing. Left it plugged it in for about an hour, tried again, still nothing. Unplugged and tried powering on, nothing. Pulled the battery again, and could only get to the splash screen. I'm running JB Sourcery, and have the one selected where the apple rots and then it spells out droid. I get through that and then it does nothing else.
Info: just tried again, had to pull the battery, then I could get the google logo to pop up, but that was it.
Info the 2nd: plugged it in for 2 hours, the graphic showed it fully charged. So I tried booting it and again, same response..gets through the boot splash screen, but goes black after. Pressing power button does nothing, doesn't even get the charge graphic to show up.
Info the 3rd: I left it be this time thinking maybe it was just really laggy or something, but after 15 minutes, still nothing. But I can feel a bit of heat as if it is on.
Info the 4th: I can get into bootloader and recovery fine. I was even able to make a backup (only thing I could think to do in there that would take some time and not risk screwing it up more) So it's not a battery issue, seems to be something with the rom.
Please help
Even though the phone is rooted and custom rom, can I take it back to Verizon? I've only had the phone since December. If I could do that, is there any way to get all the pics off of it first?

Silly question, but how would I go about getting that? And can I get it to the phone without the phone being able to boot

deja vu.....million times.
with a little search i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
Was able to wipe data/cache and re-flash the rom. Seems to be working for now. I think I'll go back to stock (thanks for the link samersh) and see if I'm still having issues.
First off: I have an AT&T HTC one X
I am an almost total noob when it comes to this stuff so please bear with me here.
I had my roommate put cyanogenmod onto my phone when I got it and all was well until I moved to Asia and got an unlock code from AT&T to be able to use it over here. The unlock code wouldn't work and I found some stuff online saying that it might be a problem with cyanogenmod. I followed a youtube instruction guide on how to get rid of the mod and everything was going fine until right at the end when I got a windows notification that the RUU had stopped working. I figured I would just do it again, but the actual program itself said it was successful. As I waited for it to reboot and load the roms, it started a loop. The loop is the white screen with the green htc letters for a few seconds and then it goes to a black screen with a phone logo in the middle. Around the phone logo is what looks like a recycling symbol except circular instead of triangular and on the screen portion of the phone logo there is an arrow facing down. I assume this is just telling me I need to actually download some software on the phone, but it won't connect via USB and every time it starts up it says that the drivers were not successfully installed and htc sync manager doesn't recognize that a device is even connected. The loop continued and i tried to boot it back into the fastloader which did nothing. I held down the buttons as if to boot it into fastloader, but this time for about 15 seconds which took me to a battery charging screen and finally ended the loop. I assume(hope) that since it's actually responding to input from the buttons that it's not irreversibly bricked. Is there any way I can get some version of android back on this thing? Any help would be much appreciated
Wrong forum buddy, you belong in the HTC ONE XL forum. Don't use anything from here because you risk a serious brick !
Hello,
In the last few months i have had some minor issues with my phone. In May or in June I have tried to root my phone. It was my first device I wanted to root, so I decided to use Kingo Android root. It didn't work. I installed HTC universal toolkit ( or how was it called ) from XDA forums to my computer. With its help I unlocked the bootloader, installed the TWRP and rooted the phone with Kingo. Everything worked OK, the only problem was that TWRP didn't respond to touch input. I didn't solve it at the time because it wasn't urgent. A month ago I installed few root apps from Google Play, but I didnt experience any issues. Today I was browsing the internet and suddenly I saw a HTC logo and the screen came grey. I waited for a minute and then force turned the phone off. It didn't want to start again. I booted into bootloader. It showed few errors, but was successful to boot. I wanted to open recovery, but it opened the bootloader menu again. Factory reset option didn't work too. I turned the phone off and then turned it on again, but it was stuck in infinite startup loop. Also the HTC logo was broken, there were strange colourful squares around it.
How can I repair my phone? I know that it isn't totally bricked, but this looks really bad. At least I would like to save my data and I will buy a new phone.
Thank You very much for Your help.
