I have a NOTE 4 that was just sent to me as a replacement from Sprint. It came with Lollipop loaded. I rooted using Chainfire autoroot. When I loaded the phone it told me that I didn't have root.
I think used the battery pull method to try and get TWRP to load. So I ran CF-Auto (I know I used the correct one). This time I unchecked auto reset or restart. I pulled the battery and went into TWRP manually
Once there I flashed the BOBv2 and Noterized Rom as well.
Each time I reboot with either of them it just HANGS and the yellow Sprint spark screen. I have tried to wipe cache, I did the factory reset with TWRP. I reflashed them...still NOTHING. Just hangs at that screen regardless of what ROM it is. Please help.
Are you giving it time to load? Maybe like fifteen minutes.
Yeah, got to give it at least 15 minutes to boot up after that. Hell I've gone up to 25 minutes.
It takes a super long time not like pre lolipop days. It make me hate flasing as much . Everyone phone takes super long to boot . It will just be patient. I wasted my time thinking it wouldn't boot to. Then i listened to everyone and they was right takes a long time. Let us know how things go
ART, known as Android Run Time can be a pain when loading your applications and optimizing the device. But once it's all loaded, your device will fly.
Thank u guys. I was just being impatient

Hey all, first time poster. I wrote a real nice explanation of my problem, but i lost it so anyways, i'll keep it short(ish).
The EVO is less than 3 weeks old, running the latest OTA, recently rooted using UnrEVOked 3, nothing fancy. I ran the battery down completely last night (first time since i got the phone) and once i got to a power source, it wouldn't boot correctly. It hangs at the white splash screen, and then finally boots up but won't respond to any touch input.
Also the phone seems to be running exceedingly slow, the boot process takes substantially long than normal once it gets past the splash screen and my live background is freezing and seems to be stuttering.
I launched into the bootloader and i get a "Touch Panel - Fail". LAME!
I'm not sure what to do at this point, whether i should wipe it or go back to stock or what. Any advice would be much appreciated.
UPDATE:
I managed to get the phone into the recovery console, make a back up (i was planning on going back to the stock image) and wipe the dalvik cache and fix permissions. I rebooted and voila! fixed. Hopes this helps any one else who has this problem.
Moral of this story: Travel with a charger.
Another update. It froze up again in the middle of sending a text. I rebooted by battery removal, and it did the same thing again. Super long splash screen and sluggish boot up, no touch response when it finally came up. I booted into recovery and cleared the dalvik cache again. Seems to be working again now. We'll see if it does it again.....
Well, the screen locked up again. I tried going through the whole process again. I wiped the caches and battery stats, nothing. I wiped all the storage and data, booted into a clean stock interface, nothing. Restored the backup image, and then at some point, through all the rebooting and whatnot, it just shut down completely. I can't even get it to the bootloader. I'm really feeling like it's a hardware problem, and i've made peace with sending it back for TEP, but i have no way to unroot it.
Any suggestions? Please......
Theres unroot processes out there. I cant remember where but ive seen them. Mine gets sluggish too, but after a reboot its ok. You cant even get into the bootloader tho. I'm not even close to an expert but.......uh I'd 'lose' it and call the insurance co....
Phone rebooted on me a couple times yesterday, then started doing it more and more frequently, about every 5 minutes. now, it mostly just sits looping at the HTC splash screen. Usually can't even get to recovery, reboots before it has time to load, or sometimes makes it, but dies before I can select anything. Managed to get it factory reset finally, but no luck. Sometimes it will eventually boot after 10-20 minutes of looping, and stay on for a minute or 2. Everything was bone stock (although bootloader unlocked) before this, had been running fine for months.
Any ideas before I buy a new phone?

Try installing a RUU for your version, if it stays on long enough.
If not, take it to warranty.
Good luck!
So my phone has been perfect for over a year. Within the first month of owning it I rooted, installed TWRP, and jumped on CM13. Been updating nightlies all year long once every week or so and enjoying the phone. Its really been perfect. Tonight after work I jump in my car, throw it on my car charger, and drive home. When I get home I notice for some reason I have no cell service (Emergency Call Only) so I reboot. That was the end. The reboot got stuck on the CM boot screen flashing the circle out around the CM face over and over and over. So, I pop the battery, try again, same thing.
Well, being that I have rooted and flashed for years now I figured Id wipe dalvik and cache. Tried that, same thing. Did a full wipe and reinstalled the nightly from my SD card. This time I thought I made progress as it set up all the apps. Then it just hangs on "starting apps" and then it sits there forever. Never boots. Doesnt loop or restart or anything, just says its starting apps.
So, jump on here and find the bootloop issue. My serial is 505x so I was wondering if maybe thats my issue. Decide to download the all in one flash zip from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/stock-h811-20i-images-kdz-flashable-t3308227
and I flash that. Stock rom works without any issue. Fired it up, logged in, no problems. Huh. Do a restart and even though I flashed that file it still shows bootloader unlocked as the LG logo comes up, and boots into TWRP as normal as well. Figured well I flashed a stock rom, lets give CM13 a try again. I download a fresh nightly through my pc and transfer it over via usb so I know its good. Full wipe, flash, reboot, hangs at "starting apps" again.
Now I am lost. The stock rom sucks and my love for this phone is based around what it is with CM installed. Am I missing something here? I really want to get back to CyanogenMod and away from the clunky slow stock rom.
Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
EDIT: Well went through the Android setup steps after flashing the stock rom so I would have a phone until this was all figured out. Turned out its not working. After setup I am not getting "Process System Isn't Reponding: wait or close" No matter what I do the phone is so slow or laggy I cant use it. Its trying to download my apps and restore my phone from my Google account but it just hangs up. No idea what to do at this point. Is my kernel messed up? Its a totally clean flash. What the heck. 3am, I give up, hopefully someone has insight in the morning. Thank you all.

You really have to investigate by adb. Look into the dmesg output and logcat as well. Maybe your sdcard is corrupt or 100 other issues are possible as well. What device do you own? H811? unlocked?

There are several users reporting that the latest cm version bootloop the best option is to start in download mode and Flash with LGUP Stock ROM.
You could also try to boot into Download Mode and then flash the latest twrp and then Boot into Factory Reset Mode again
My Nexus 7 2013 tab is stuck on boot animation and not switching on thereafter. I installed a custom rom after flasing TWRP RECOVERY 3.0.2 via P.C and thereafter using the TWRP.
The installation process is successful each time but wont go further than the boot screen. I waited for almost an hour . Evem the Gapps zip is not installing and giving error on log saying that file not mapped. Any way out of this mess? Does it have anything to do with my process? ...I advance wipe the system , data and cache before flashing and the file.
Don't know if you ever figured this out, but last night, mine froze while the kids were playing a game. I couldn't do anything at all. I had to hold the power button down for a while and it finally shut down. I charged it overnight, and all I could get it to do was display the Google screen. I searched and searched for a solution, and the only crazy thing that actually worked was to give it a good whack! I don't know why, but as soon as I smacked it (not on the glass!!), it booted right up as normal. Very odd.

Which rom? Do you use the right gapps? Flash the rom without gapps and look if it's booting

Holy ****, this worked! Had the same problem last night for the first time (I used it until the battery drained and this morning I got the loop). Smacked it on the back and now it's fully on!
Shame I got desperate and did a factory reset first
Okay, so i have an LG G3 D855, few months ago it worked like a charm.. But then shortly after i started noticing random reboots everytime during using apps. Then it went in bootloop. I tried to turn it on again, entered recovery screen, choosed factory reset and it did, but then it went through the same process, random restart. Eventually stuck up in factory resetting screen. However i think i made mistake when the phone freezed in reset screen : pulling out the battery. later it lost its IMEI & kept heating up (probably tried to find its cellular framework of some sort).
Days passed, several factory resets has been done. Now the phone's at its worst state. It refused to get past the boot logo. everytime it finishes booting, the display just goes black, tried to plug usb charger, chargin indicator doesn't want to turn on, neither after i pulled out the battery. I have to leave it a few days to get it working again, but it keeps persisting.
Addition : The phone's also feels warm post the blackscreen.
Any thoughts whether can this be fixed or i have to replace something inside the phone's board?
thanks in advance.

Reflash with lgup.
Remove the SIM card and the memory card. try again. Full wipe system data ...
I've had the same problem. I've tried. Worked
found the problem. memory card
EDIT: Some kind of voodoo happened right now! I was about to unbrick again and wanted to give the phone a try to boot before. And it did! So no problem at the moment, but still a strong feeling of uncertainty...
EDIT: Phone is still randomly rebooting and gets stuck in bootloops

Hej guys, I really need your advice,
but first things first: Thank you very much for all of your wonderful work on custom roms and further support of older devices. I've been reading here for a few years now and was more or less happy to have up-to-date-roms for some of my phones.
Now I'm facing quite the same problem like OP did / does. Everything started with me, following this guide to root my D855 (coming from stock rom) and flash TWRP: you tube.com/watch?v=8VOgM3jLas4 (Note: The guide told me to flash "3__HacerPermisivo.zip" for updating the kernel, which I did.)
Next, I flashed a newer version of TWRP ("twrp-3.2.3-0-d855.img") than the one provided in "2__AutoRecMMD855.apk" by the guide above. I wiped dalvik and cache and after that, I flashed "lineage-15.1-20190410-nightly-d855-signed.zip", wiped dalvik and cache again and flashed "open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190411.zip". I wiped dalvik and cache again and told TWRP to reboot.
Here is, where problems began to occur. The phone got into a bootloop, showing up the LG splash screen again and again instead of booting into LOS correctly and set it up. At some point I decided to remove the battery. When I did, at the same time LOS was just going to load, which I saw because of its beginning boot animation. So I screwed it up right at the wrong moment, I guess.
From here, the phone bootlooped every time, I wanted it to start. No battery acrobatics helped and on top I couldn't get it into recovery mode. Any attempts ended in bootloops. I think, this might be what is called a brick / to brick your device, isn't it? I found this guide to unbrick a D855 and followed its steps: open -freax.fr/guide-unbrick-your-lg-g3/
Believe me, it was a real pain in the ass! Because of me, messing up something or the phone getting stuck into a bootloop during the unbrick process, I had to do it 4 to 5 times until success... I have to say: I didn't follow the last steps beginning from "Root". Instead, I followed the guide from the beginning of my post.
Finally, I got "lineage-15.1-20190410-nightly-d855-signed.zip" and "open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190411.zip" to run. I set it up and began to load some of my apps of my Play Store collection. While downloading, the phone froze, crashed and began to bootloop, from here unable to boot normally or to get into recovery mode. So I unbricked and flashed again (again several times because of bootloops before LOS first set up). When I got it to work again, I was able to install my apps without being trolled by the phone again. But scrolling through the eBay app froze the phone and it began bootlooping again...
You can believe me, I was about to throw the D855 against the hardest piece of wall, I could possibly find in my rage. The reason why I didn't give up at this point is, that I LOS-rommed two other D855s just a few days before. Those were my mom's and my girlfriend's and they work fine until today. I bought this third one for myself, because I was impressed, how good LOS worked on the D855s. On top I wanted to get rid of my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9515), because LOS kinda sucks on it, but this is another story...
So I figuered that the earlier LOS version I used for the women's phones, could solve the problem. So I unbricked again and flashed "lineage-15.1-20190327-nightly-d855-signed.zip" and "open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190329.zip". And hell yeah, that did work! No bootloops, eBay worked fine, just everything was as I loved it on the other phones, I flashed. Until tonight. I've been lucky for almost two days, but tonight this happened: I plotted a route in Google Maps and saved it as a shortcut on my homescreen. I closed Maps and tapped the route icon. Freeze - crash - bootloop - no recovery mode! I wanted to start crying, because Maps has already worked fine yesterday. And it still does on the other two phones, which run exactly the same rom...
So now, I'm sitting here, not knowing what can be done further. I'm not a programmer / developper or any of those cracks providing us the newest software for old phones. So I just can do wild guesses. Maybe the moment I removed the battery the very first time after flashing messed something up very deep inside the phones internals and it can not be cured any more. Maybe some of you guys have experienced similar things and know a tweak or a simple step, I forgot. Anyway, I hope I can use my phone on LOS some day which I bought especially for this case.
Keep up the great work, folks!

I ordered a new mainboard. It should arrive within 3 weeks. I'll keep you updated.
