Miui rom - Phone keep booting itself - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
Im looong time om my favorite Miui rom. I was all the time on version 4.11.13. Last few days i had updates ( like 5 times ) until 5.5.20 which i had yesterday.
Today i had few boots with no reason but after few hrs. phone keep booting all the time. After boot everything is loaded normally, i get service and then shows " settings has stopped" or something like that, few sec norma using and boot. Its not even boot just logo lg with no sound and coming back. I still can access twrp. I found one backup which was CM and problem gone. Phone works fine. Then i try download every version from here http://goo.gl/lHnRMA and still booting. Even after install the same 4.11.13
Do i have to install something else, did i forgot about something ?
What is wrong how to fix it ? I fighting all day with this and now i don't have idea whats wrong.

Unable to flash new rom

hi friends.. basically i am unable to install any new rom on my Redmi 1s, I searched almost everything but couldn't find the solution.. so i am posting it here... i will try to describe my problem below..
Back a few months i was using CM 12.1-20150603-UNOFFICIAL-armani.. then a OTA update came i installed it joyfully.. but my joys didn't last longer as a noticed that after booting my Wifi always shows "Turning WiFi On" but never got really opened. So i flashed back to old version... Then i installed Xtreme Music Mod and and the Earpeice Speaker went off... So i thought of flashing again, This time I flashed Flex OS.. was sucessful and then days later i installed xposed and got struck in bootloop due to an improper mod... due to my noobness i staraight away tried to flash flex OS again and then the install was successful but after the initial boot phone worked for like 30 seconds then freezes and reboot.. this happened again and again untill i flashed the CM 12.1-20150603-UNOFFICIAL-armani again... in middle of all this i tried using Multirom but was unsucessful....
And NOW MY PHONE WON"T ACCEPT ANY ROM OTHER THAN CM 12.1-20150603-UNOFFICIAL-armani
I tried changing recovery, gone through the Fastboot flashing and doing things a fresh
but every time i install a rom My phone either freezes on "ANDROID IS UPGRADING" or it boots completely and then freezes and reboot...
I hope someone has a solution for this.. coz m dying to use MM ..
Thanks

lg g3 d855 bootloop

**UPDATE:** so I have managed after many tries to unbrick my phone. So I have unbricked it using kdz method.
No the weird thing is that the phone works fine while in the charger, but when I take the charger off it shuts itself off and starts getting into a bootloop again.
I really don't care any more about my data, I just wanna get my phone normal again.
Any idea what to do?
So I have installed fulmics rom 2 days ago in my phone. At first it seemed great but after couple of hours it started having some problems (when entering the snapchat it just shutdown). It really annoyed me so I decided install a new kernel . I downlaoded xceed kernel and just flashed it and hoped it will succeed.
After that every thing got ****! The device just showed the LG logo and restarted and than showed it again.
I didn't know what to do than I searched a little bit and I connected my device, and using adb sideload transfered cloudy rom(of course I did wipe before flashing it).
After I flashed the room every thing seemed great, it took time and in the setup there was a step where you "restore" you device. (Google service).
I chose the apps I wanted and while it was proccessing it just shut down and again started showing the lg device and restarting it self.
I am really lost, I dont know what to do, I trying ****ing every thing.
Thank you guys.
Same here and still dont know the answer
I'd advice you to read carefully on the rom you want to flash before flashing so you know exactly what to expect. While your phone is busy stuck in bootloop, try connecting it to the charger and let me know what happens.

Stuck in Boot loop after weeks of normal usage

Hi.
I have a problem with my D855. My phone is rooted and runs the fulmics ROM. Everything was working fine, , on Fulmics 5.3, except than one day, I was using my phone normally and then it crashed. I saw the phone rebooting, but for some reason it got stuck. The phone tried to boot unsuccessfully until the "firmware update" went through, after what it reboots again (unsuccessfully) and so on.
At that time, I was able to access twrp, do some backup, and flash properly with a downgraded version of fulmics (from 5.3 to 4.1).
It was able to boot again and use my phone like before. Yet, after one month of usage, the same problem happened on version 4.1. The phone crashed and now cannot boot.
Any idea of where it is coming from? Should I go back to stock? Should I contact customer service?
What did you do before the phone crashes ?
I think you probably should flash the stock ROM and wait for an other crash... or not.

I haven't done anything special. I think that the first time I was playing on candy crush. The second time I was just looking at pictures in my gallery.
I was using the ROM without any tweaks or extra modules such as Xposed. Just regular use.
Update on my situation: I switched back to stock ROM and it seems to work OK for now (it has been 4 days). So I will wait and see if new problems happen. By the way, it was extremely difficult for me to get back to Stock directly from fulmics ROM. I tried several methods that I have found on xda based on LGUP or LG Flash tool without success. For some reason I was not able to connect the phone to my PC in download mode.
The only way that I found was to use a nandroid backup that I did just after rooting the phone and that was based on stock ROM.

You can also use the Stock rom flashable from twrp. So you can wipe the system partition and get a "better situation" than a nandroid backup that should be with an old version.
Or use this that has also root and other improvements.

Same problem here. Normal usage suddenly started to reboot and now it's stuck in boot loop
Coming from Fulmics too - stopped working one fine day.
Now, continues to boot-loop at the initial LG screen. Trying to get into the recovery shows me the the 'Factory Reset' screen, but beyond that leads to boot-loops again. Even the Download mode loops!
I'm at my wits end without a solution in sight.

Thank you for this advice. I was able to update my stock ROM after the Nandroid backup through LGUP, but your method would have been faster.
But anyway, I am waiting to see if I am stuck with bootloops again, using non-root stock version, so I can send it to customer service if this happen again.

Are you using Fulmics ROM as well? Can you have access to TWRP? I was able to connect to a PC in the recovery mode and to transfer files before flashing, in case you need some basic backup...

Silly question, but are you sure that you selected "Yes" when the screen asks you about factory reset? you have to press "volume down" and the "power button", since the default answer is no.

Yes, of course I was able to access TWRP successfully earlier.
Curiously enough, the phone boot-loops in regular startup, Download mode and trying to get to recovery. However, it doesn't restart itself and fall into a loop, while on the Factory Reset menu. Am I correct in assuming that the battery could not be the root cause of the overall problem? Because if it was, it would likely loop even on this Factory Reset menu as well as far as I understand.
Unfortunately, the phone restarts as soon as it lands in the Download mode so I cannot even restore to stock.
EDIT: Okay, weirdly enough it just booted and reached the homescreen before restarting again. What I did was let it charge to a 100% and tried booting while plugged in. Could it be the battery after all? Though this exact set of steps hasn't been helpful before.

Might've bricked my SMT320, not sure what to do next

Okay, so I'm not new to flashing roms or anything on this tablet. Been doing it on this particular tablet for years now.
But I think I really screwed up this time. I had been running an older version of Resurrection Remix ( I think it might have been lollipop, around '16 is when I installed it) and the battery was draining really bad suddenly. So after I installed a new battery I thought I'd put on a fresh new OS. Installed Lineage 14.1 and it worked wonderfully.
Then I tried to install TWRP because, I dunno... I didn't like the Cyanogen recovery that was on it.
I installed Rashr, went to install TWRP. Things looked okay, then it reboot. Got stuck at the downloading screen. Said at the top "Could not boot in normal mode."
Installed Kies, wouldn't connect to the tablet.
Installed Odin. Made a connection with the tablet. Still couldn't get rid of the "normal mode" error. Kept messing around with different button combos, popped the tablet open and disconnected the battery. Waited for a minute, put it back in and nothing different.
Finally I managed to get it to not show the "normal mode" error, but it might as well because Odin still doesn't work.
I remember a few years back I had to do some stuff on it to get the newer android OSes working on it, I think it involved repartitioning memory and stuff. So I don't know if I can try to go full KitKat stock rom or if it'll really mess things up.
I just want my tablet working with a recent rom.
I've literally spent 5 hours with this damn thing trying to get it working again and I'm at a total loss, here. Any help from you wonderful XDA folks would be so greatly appreciated!
EDIT:
Okay, so I let the battery drain overnight (the screen wouldn't turn off so it drained pretty quick) and while it's still stuck in Odin mode now it says at the bottom in red Unknown dev_type.
Have no clue what that means but yeah...

Help troubleshooting a confusing bricking? (Solved)

So previous to yesterday I had a fully working Galaxy S9 G960F, running the latest version of crDroid 11 (from 2021 heh), and something like TWRP 3.5.1? A fairly old version anyway, since I'd been running the same OS for the past year. I recently noticed someone had gotten 13 working on the S9, so I downloaded it and installed it like I'd done every other time installing a custom OS before, rebooted, and then the phone starts automatically going to recovery on boot, but gets stuck on the TWRP splash screen each time.
So I figured maybe the version of TWRP was too old for Android 13, and grab the latest (3.7.0), flash that with Odin, start the phone and I can at least get into recovery this time. So I try installing crDroid again. Same deal, just instantly boots straight back into recovery. So, figuring I'd best just go back to what I was using before, I reinstalled the previous crDroid 11 I had been using, and.. for some reason with that installed it only boots into Download mode unless I force it into Recovery. I try wiping everything and trying again, same deal. I even tried installing a different rom (Evolution X) and that just straight reboot looped.
If I go back to 3.5.1 TWRP it gets stuck on the splash screen btw. I am not sure what to do from here. Can I go back to stock and start over? Is there something else I should be doing? I've changed roms a bunch of times in the past and this is the first time 'just reinstall what worked before' hasn't worked, heh.
(For clarification, with crDroid 13: Phone turns on, shows Samsung Galaxy S9 boot screen, then goes straight into TWRP. With crDroid 11: Phone turns on, Galaxy S9 boot screen, straight into Downloading. With Evolution X: Phone turns on, Galaxy S9 boot screen, shut down and reboot. Buttons don't seem to be pressed in.)

Similar thing happened to me on a different Samsung device.
I did:
Used at that time SamFirm_Reborn_0.3.6.2 to get latest stock from samsung servers directly after inserting correct device designation and csc code.
Checked "binary nature" to get the full multiple part stock rom.
Flashed that with Odin.
Started from scratch.
Thank you so much! That fixed it.
