[Q] Still Stuck in boot loop after using the unbricking guide - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone,
Posted about this in the unbricking guide post (see below link).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59886507#post59886507
Was wondering if anyone could offer up any suggestions as to how to fix this problem. I apologise for posting about this twice, but I am in dire need of any help I can get on this one.
Update: just to let you all know, after many days of trying to resolve this, I decided to take it to a local phone repair shop. Unfortunately they have not been able to fix the problem either. As this was the case, I decided to buy a new phone.

[Q] Galaxy Nexus Restarting/powering off

Hey everyone.
Just been reading a lot of relevant threads on what I'm about to post and nobody seems to post a fix.
Has anyone found a fix for the Galaxy Nexus restarting and/or powering off issues?
A factory reset didn't fix it for me at all, the shop I got it from won't refund me so I have to go to fair trading now.
Many are having issues after a few weeks of purchase. The problem only gets worse as they use the phone as has happened to me..
I don't want this phone any more unless someone has a fix?
Or I'll just take it to fair trading and get them to force the company to give me a refund.
Is it rooted? Custom ROM?
Does it boot into the bootloader? I suggest you root it, flash recovery and then flash either a stock ROM or a custom ROM.
PM me if you need more help.

[Q] Need help with my rooted, unlocked HTC One (M8). Please help.

Hello. I'm very new here, and I have a problem, and I'm desperate.
I rooted and unlocked my HTC One (M8) on Sunday. The reason? I wanted one stupid boot animation, that's all I wanted. I had no idea what "rooting" it and all that did, all I knew is that I had to do it to get my own animation. Not to say I didn't do my research. I searched lots and lots, reading a lot of articles and everything.
Now, it's rooted and unlocked, using SuperSU and TWRP (I think that's the right info, like I said I'm new to this). I've been trying for two days now to get that stupid animation to work, but to no avail. I've looked at it all.
Now here's my actual problem. Now knowing that I won't get the animation to work (I'm done with trying) I started to panic. I started realizing my warranty is gone, and that I'm dead if anything happens to it. I don't want that. I need it. I need help. It's lame, but I'm scared.
So my question is, is there any way to unroot and lock it? I just want everything back to stock. I want it how I got it. Please help. If there isn't a way, I guess I'll learn from my mistakes. But if there is a way, please help me out. I beg of you. I'd be more than willing to answer questions if you have any pertaining to my problem. Yes, I know I shouldn't have done all this, especially since I have no knowledge of it, but that all doesn't matter now. It's done and I need help. Step by step would be optimal, as, again, I'm new to all of this and don't really understand any of it.
Edit: Not sure if it's vital information, but I used the Sakitech step by step guide on how to root the HTC One (M8). I can't post the link, but it's the first video when you YouTube how to root it.

LG G2 Please HELP!!

Hello everyone. I've been trying to root my LG G2 for about 6 hours now. I've followed numerous guides and watched tons of videos. I am now stuck on a black screen with yellow text asking me to "send the package you want to apply." I dont know if this is a driver issue (in which case I am unable to find or install my devices specific drivers,) or if I have already ruined my phone..... if someone could take a few minutes and skype me so that I will be able to better explain / take instructiuon I would be very appreciative. I'm new to this and have rooted and installed custom roms on 2 other phones that were a cake walk so I figured this one would be as well...... oh how wrong I was. Anyway thanks in advance and pm me for my skype info or try to type instructions. Just hope I can keep up and follow correctly. I'm unable to use it while this problem persist so i'm trying to get this figured out as soon as possible. Thanks again!
This is the forum for the G3.

So My A100 died...Again, this time no warranty. Need help with DIY fix.

HI Guys. So i managed to flash the a200 bootloader on this thing a while back and installed some custom stuff. After bricking it once and having to RMA i decided to leave it unlocked. About a year later the tablet just died all of a sudden. I can get into CWM recovery but when I try to flash a rom it gives an "fail to mount" error. I did some searching and i found out that maybe the emmc is bad and would require a motherboard replacement. Well since Acer wants to charge me $250 to repair it and a replacement motherboard cost be around $30 I think i would take the risk doing a pulldown and replacing the motherboard myself, If i can get some help to do it as I wouldnt even know where to find the first screw. I'm also willing to document the process and post it as a tutorial for those facing a similar problem if it is successful. So if anyone can advise me on how to do this I would be eternally grateful.

HTC ONE M9 Stuck in BOOTLOADER LOOP - Willing to Compensate

I recently bought a new HTC One M9 from Ebay brand new, the listing said it was unlocked and gsm. Unfortunately this was not true, so when i finally got it I had to unlock it myself which i managed but i went further and wanted to root my phone, as far as rooting after the step to install Team Win Recovery Project, I followed this tutorial: (youtube.com/watch?v=rOHN8byHAzk&t=941s) and basically im like all the other guys who have their phone stuck in bootloader loop, i've tried the RUU exe's from HTC they end up giving me a "Signagure" (spelt that way) error so i cant use that, i've cycled through multiple micro sd cards to try get the stock os to install in the download boot. i've getting roms they dont work and the loop just continues. Im lost guys...and heartbroken with a new uselss phone...IM WILLING TO PAY(within reason) anyone that can help me to get my phone back to normal.
The phone was from USA under Sprint, I tested my GSM network when I had it unlocked and it worked, I dont care if I can only get it back on Sprint, I just want it working again. Again I'm willing to Pay the person via PayPal to Help me out.
Thank you. you can contact me at [email protected]
Never ever follow video tutorials. They're outdated as soon as they get uploaded.
Depending on the firmware version of your phone you need different files for rooting your M9. That's why you ended up with a bootloop. The video doesn't give you that information.
Take a look at the ReadMe thread. It should explain all you need to know and contains all files you might need for recovering your phone.

THank you for replying im still busy looking for help on how to do this, I stand by my promise i will PayPal anyone that can help me save my device, I consider myself tech efficient in general, im just new to android - this is my first andeoid.
As said before, just look at the ReadMe thread. A bootloop isn't the end of the world. There's no need to pay anyone at this point since all files and information you need are available for free.
