Have a look through the forum there are multiple threads where people have been stuck in a boot loop. You will most likely need to download the official Google files and flash via fastboot

I was able to get the driver installed...locked it and then unlocked and rerooted...now I am afraid to do anything else

Got it fixed....whew!!!!

[Q] Issue with HTC One X after bootloader unlock and recovery flash

Hey Guys,
So I am totally stumped at the moment.
I have used the Hasoon2000 HTC all-in-one and performed the following:
Unlocked the bootloader
flashed the recovery
Installed SuperSU
My phone is rooted and all is good but now everytime i try to open an app that has something to do with i think either the gpu or sound it freexes then restarts.
What should i try?? I have tried to flash stock recovery with no success and wiped the cache and tried full factory reset. All results in the same issue. I ahve even tried to remove the SU in the system/xbin and bin folders.
Should i try flashing with a stock rom?
Any help is much appreciated

Which apps are doing it, are they stock or 3rd party??
You will find there are still a lot of apps out there that dont work or arent too clever on ICS, so if its from the market id investigate its ics compatability b4 you do anything.
It has happened to me, PROPMODDER, it loads, but as soon as you try to alter something it all goes wrong.
Failing that, try booting into recovery, wipe the cache, dalvik cache, and finally fix permissions, see if that helps any, if it is stock apps causing the problem and you dont want to use 3rd party apps you could also boot into fastboot, open a cmd prompty changing to your ADB directory were fastboot is and try FASTBOOT ERASE CACHE, this can sometimes help with issues.
Good luck with it, i hope you solve it.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I have tried clearing both caches and fixing permission (clockwork recovery) but it has made no difference. it is any app including stock that cause this issue. Seems to be anything related to the GPU or sound (pretty sure sound).
I have the srock RUU, should i lock the boot loader and install the RUU (1.28)??

as a basic test i just tried Youtube and as soon as the video begins to play it freezes for 10 seconds then restarts

Attempted to install orignial RUU but got an image error unpn installation
I checked my phone which matchs the below file, dont know why it thinks its wrong
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.28.707.10_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_257076_signed.exe

Did you lock your boot loader before flashing the ruu?
Also, did you read some threads around here so you could understand what you are doing to your phone? I'm asking this because the all in one tool is nice, but it's also dangerous when you don't quite understand how it works

Well no i didnt have the bootloader relocked as it wouldnt load the OS back up, it just kept booting to bootloader. Turns out that was a good thing. Ran RUU and now im back to the beggining lol thanks all for your help. I will do some more reading before I root again
Any recommendations? all i want to do is a simple root to connect a ps3 controller lol

[Q] stuck at sony screen

now before you tell me off, I have looked around on the forum and nothing has helped me.
xperia arc s originally running android 4.04
right,
I am fairly new to android rooting etc, and I recently rooted my phone, installed X-Parts then I followed all the instructions and formatted my phone, and then installed cm 10.1 and got error 7, I think it was. so I decided to restore the nandroid backup that X-Parts had done and it completed successfully, so then I clicked restart but it gets stuck at the "Sony" logo but it will still go into fastboot, but windows 8 says it doesn't recognise it, or it wont install or something like that.
thanks for your help
getting a bit worried as this is my phone and it was quite expensive
again thanks

I don't have flashtool yet, could you provide a link?

don't worry, I got it from androxyde. please anyone could I have a step by step guide on how to undo or fix what I have done. thank you!!!

how do I install the adb drivers

download flashtool then find the stock ics in .tft format then flash it to your cellphone in flashboot..Thats what i did when my arc s got bricked

Just out of interest, if I do that will it remove carrier branding

right, new problem. i have fixed all of the above and now i have downloaded cm 10.1 for arc s. i have copied .zip files for rom and for gapps, and have flashed the kernel succesfully, and now i want to boot into recovery (which i have installed on my arc s) and when i turn the phone on in order to boot into recovery, wipe the phone and cache, and flash the rom the phone vibrates and the LEDs change colour, finally finishing on yellow and then it does nothing. why?

[Q] Xperia S doesn't boot

Hi all,
Before I had CM10 installed on my LT26i. Then I have installed the prerooted JellyBean software from DoomLorD. The phone started lagging a lot after a while, I had a factory reset on it a few days ago. When I tried to install my apps&data back which I have backed up from Titanium backup app an error occured. And it was saying the phone needs to be restarted. I did, but now the phone doesn't boot. After xperia logo it starts bootingg just for a few seconds and then freees and turns off. I can't get into recovery mode. Tried to have it on fastboot on Windows 8, but it says unknown device.
What procedure I should follow now ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

if i were u, i will re-lock the bootloader and save your phone with update service
update service will probably put your phone into .200 rom
then flash it to .211 rom yourself and root it with the doomlord kit

Xperia ZL problem with flashmode

Hi guys.
My problem is that I tried to install cm11 on my xperia so I rooted it, then I unlocked the bootloader and then I installed CWM.
So I started with the wiping, and though im quite used to the procedure I made the mistake of wiping data, cache and... system :/, Ive done it before but this time the cm11 zip failed to install and though I tried, it kept telling me there was an error with some changes and it aborted.
Was kind of busy so turned it off, big mistake, as I expected, when I tried to turn it on it started the bootloop.
So here I am with its battery fully discharged and no OS on the device.
But my fear is that now it only goes into fastboot, but when I try to set it on flashmode the led quickly flashes green, then red and then none, and it doesnt go into flashmode. So im out of ideas as to how can I recover it.
Do you think it is bricked? Is there a way to get it working again?
I thought about getting it to sony, but I dont know how they'd react to my flashing mistakes xD Wanted to ask you guys first.
Thanks in advance to anyone. And pleasee tell me theres a way around this xDD

u don't have recovery!?
before try to flash rom
try to install recovery first and then through recovery try to flash.
if u side-loaded rom in internal memory and aborted error appear try to install it from usb-otg.

The things I wiped data and system partitions, the zip is still in the internal memory but I have no access to it.
Im trying to say I cant even try to turn it on or enter recovery without it going into bootloop.
Can you tell me more about that otg-usb? What do you mean?
It wont even get into flashmode.

fastboot is enough to install recovery.
follow this;
Installing recovery using fastboot
-
after installing recovery cwm or twrp (that u can find them in dev section)
it s time to install rom (flashing rom)
then u should boot into recovery. almost of recoveries have built-in file-manager it means u will access to ur file in internal memory.
if u cannot install rom from internal memory then connect usb by otg cable.
it means transfer flashable rom.zip to USB-flash memory and then connect it to ur phone and install ROM from it.
hope to have success
:good:
