help! my Galaxy nexus is stuck in a boot loop the X animation... with the glowing blue, red, yellow, green.. it was rooted and i believe it was on JB.. but it may have been Kit Kat.. i tried to just pop out the batt and let is set for a big.. did no good... still boot loop... i have tired to get to recovery by Power on Vol- did no good... still boot loop.. at this point i dont care if the phone is wiped clean.. i have it all backed up... but its just a cool paper weight now.... so with the phone in infinite boot loop... what is my next step.... if just want to flash a new rom or something... its un rooted but stock... kinda lots here... help?
edit:
i can get into odin mode.. home + DN
but
when i try home +up all i get is boot loop... even after doing the remove battery thing...
have tried the nexus root toolkit.. will not see the device says i need to enable ADB on the galaxy nexus.... which i cannot do because i am in a boot loop... this is looking bad and worse!
edit: sorted... back to ICS.. so now its time to find a stable version of KitKat or Lollipop... any ideas?

i flashed the new deepshinning 9x about a week ago, and it was fine for a while, but in the last few days i noticed it began to slow down, and this morning i tried to reset it but it won't turn back on, it hangs at the boot logo can anybody please help, i need it for tonite
You mean you are at the boot logo or stuck at the bootloader?
If you are stuck at the boot logo try a hard reset. If that doesn't work try flashing a new rom.
the boot logo, and i couldn't flash anything else cause the phone wouldn't come on, but i did a restore, now i'm finna get this deep shinning completely off, i'm done with deep shining, any ideas on a better rom? i thought about tryin energy
im stuck at the tp2 logo atm, it makes it to tp2 then restarts. im not turning it on and cant keep it turned off.
i cant get into the boot loader (vol down on start) because it closes after about a minute in the loader
i'd love to task29 the whole damn thing but i cant get access to it via usb >.>
what can i do?
Hi,
I've attempted the JB update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737899..
fastboot flash boot boot.img etc.. which said all was well..
But now find that my phone will not boot up, doesn't get past the Google and unlock screen.
I've tried all combinations of volume buttons, I can get to the fasboot menu where I can choose either Recovery Mode, Power Off, Start or Restart bootloader.
None of these appear to do anything, recovery goes to the google a screen followed by an Android on it's back with an exclamation mark over it.. then goes to the Google and unlocked icon screen and stays there...
I fear my phone is bricked... Please help..

1.) Your phone is far from bricked at all. You have access to the boot loader (i.e. the screen with the options). The recovery you're seeing is stock recovery. All you need to do is go into boot loader and fastboot flash recovername (CWM) and you will have your custom recovery back to wipe data and reinstall a rom or restore a nandroid backup
Mine is doing the same thing, weird thing is, it was working since yesterday on jellybean, it just randomly froze this morning and and now won't boot..
im currently at work so i don't have admin rights to do a fastboot flash..
any idea why it would randomly stop working when i havn't flashed anything on it besides the jb rom?
Sorted..
Thanks for the comments.. yeah i was over-reacting a bit there..
I downloaded the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, got a stock rom form gopogle, flashed it.. back to normal, well, it will be after i restore the CWM backup i took.. phew..
Thanks again
Ian.
Still stuck
I'm also stuck in the same situation(google with the unlock screen). I fear I'm a little more stuck. I also can see the recovery/restartbootloader screen. However, everything I try still comes back to that same google screen and gets hung up. Need some help!
this has happened twice today and i think it from using volume+

Boot into recovery, wipe cache, Reboot
I have flashed the recovery and after the reboot now there is no starting. I cannot come into the recovery and if I want to see the loading animation nothing happen after plug in the usb to the device.
Is my phone dead?
Provide more of a description of what is actually happening.
Does it not respond to the power button?
Can you boot into the bootloader or ODIN?
Does it boot and get stuck on the splash screen?
100% full akku.
powerbutton dont work. nothing happen. screen is black. no google logo apears. recovery and fast boot modus dont work too.
odin how does it work if the phone not start?
I guess you have already tried to remove and replace the battery?
yes the battery is off now for 1h

that sounds like a brick for me. I have got the same with the driver like there.
OP- Take a look at this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1760787
It might be helpful.
Might be a stupid question, but can you check if you flashed the correct recovery for your variant?
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
I rooted my Galaxy s4 as soon as I got it and after flashing a few roms i started getting issues getting them to boot up now im basically stuck on twrp because no rom will boot up, they flash perfectly but once the phone reboots i get stuck on the Black and white Samsung Galaxy S4 logo and wont boot past that. I am currently stuck on twrp recovery since nothing wants to boot up not even my backups. Any help?

If you still have a rom installed and it will not fully boot up normally
then simply go into cwm or twrp recovery and do a "factory reset",
after that it should boot normally without any further booting issues.
Since this will be the first normal boot, be sure to give it 3-4 minutes.
Have patience.
Good luck!
I was playing around with my Tablet. Being a mad scientist trying to get root working on 5.1.1 and I did something that messed up the First boot screen that says. Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro. Well its not there any more just a crazy screen lol Some times its a whiteish screen like static some times I swear it was my desktop after it boots up. The tablet boots up just fine. But the First Splash screen is toast. Anyone know the way to fix that?
EDIT: I have tried reflashing the whole 5.1.1 update with ODIN and still the first boot screen is bonkers.
I believe there is two logos, one is built into the kernel / boot (the one that says Galaxy Tab Pro), then the other animated logo is stored under /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg (Swirling Samsung Logo), so it sounds like something with the kernel or boot loader is messed up
I would try doing a factory reset, (you will loose all data), then a re-flash, if that doesn't help you might try to downgrade the firmware to kitkat (if possible) then re-upgrade again, maybe it skips flashing the boot loader if its already the same version ...but really it might not be worth the hassle if it's just the logo...

Try reflashing with Bootloader as you have nothing to loose
