Just wondering if there's a way to enable a reboot option on the powerdown menu. My modded G1 had it and it came in handy when you're messing with the phone and going in and out of recovery and what not.
i just use quick boot off the marketplace. will reboot, reboot to recovery, or to the bootloader,
I'll give it a try. Thanks

Hey guys, so I rooted the phone, unlocked bootloader, and try to install the twrp 2.2 on my phone, but i still cant boot into it from the hboot...it just reboots over and over until i turn it off.
I've installed twrp both from the ap and manually by doing fastboot recovery openrecovery-twrp etc etc
Fastboot in the settings is disabled.
I want to ultimately install clearrom4.1 on it and call it a day.
Any ideas? Cheers.

Try installing it from GooManager https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zMHVwLmdvb21hbmFnZXIiXQ..
Open the app, hit menu and install the open recovery from there. Then boot while holding Power + Vol Down (or adb reboot recovery)
Edit: I'm stupid and can't read. I didn't notice that you already installed using the app...Try it again though and then adb reboot recovery to see if you can get there. Once you install a custom rom there should be an extended power menu where you can boot into recovery directly.
I'm sure you did but just asking, on goo manager, did you install " open recovery script" ?
AT&T OneX twrp2.2 CleanROM4.1SE
In power settings turn off fastboot. The turn off phone and boot into hboot.

I tried to use the search and google but didn't really find anything helpful. Almost 2 years ago, I unlocked the bootloader back on honeycomb and did custom recovery, root, and custom rom. Then a little while after ICS came out, I did the OTA update.
Today, I reset the xoom back to stock ICS and tried to unlock the bootloader again...thinking nothing of it. The process was taking a few minutes so I decided to get a snack and when I came back it was rebooting.
I assumed that it worked and continued to try and fastboot a recovery image. The recovery image installed and I did another reboot but was greeted with the android welcome screen. Anyways I went through the menus and then tried to enter recovery and it gave me an android laying on its back with and exclamation point above his open chest.
I hard rebooted and can still get into my device, but adb cannot seem to find my xoom anymore. I have tried it on a 64bit desktop and laptop with no luck.
Have I messed up? Or is there a simple fix that I am missing? Thanks in advance for any help!
Can you get into fastboot mode? The second time you unlocked did you have to go through the questions on your xoom again?

Yes, I can get into fastboot by holding the volume down key and the power button. That's fastboot, right?
Yes, I had to go through the menus the second time I unlocked.
sounds like the recovery you try to fastboot did not take or the rom was corrupt.. Which recovery was it? Do you want to be rooted and run a custom rom or completely stock? what xoom do you have(wifi, 3g, 4g)

I want to flash this ROM

With whichever recovery is best. I tried flashing this recovery:

I am on a 4G xoom on 4.0.4 but I don't use my data plan. I would like to be on a nice stable build of 4.2.
Download your rom choice, gapps and put them on the root of your sd card. If they are already there skip this step
I like TWRP Recovery the best. Easy to use and lots of options.
download this Twrp 2.4 img to the folder you hve fastboot in
open a cmd prompt in that o that folder
type fastboot flash recovery TWRPv2.4.1.0.img
Once you have verification on your device that this has been flashed, reboot your device by holding volume up + power.
Then 3 seconds after you see the Motorola logo, hit volume down. You should now see "Android Recovery" in the top left corner. Hit volume up to boot into recovery.
You should be in twrp 2.4
select backup/restore and backup your current system
select install and find your rom select asnd then swipe to flash
when done then select home
select install again and find the gapps package and install
when done select wipe dalvick/cache
when done select reboot
select system
you should be good to go.
Well I got through all of the steps, but when I try to boot I get stuck in a loop of the roms boot logo. Is it okay to flash a wingray rom over a stingray device?

I think it is fine just the 3g/4g won't work.
I can get you going again but you are going to be starting with a locked honeycomb device. You will then have to either let it update to ICS or JB or unlock, root, install custom recovery and flash a rom. What xoom do you have 3g or 4g?

Okay I restored it again but this time i did a factory reset and wipe dalvick before flashing the rom and gapps. It works! Thank you for your help!
However, could I ask how to root this thing?
since you have a custom recovery on it already and are unlocked.
Download this file Universal xoom root place it on the root of your sd card and flash it. Then reboot and try a root required app such as root checker

Morning. Was wondering if anyone can help me. I have a verizon HTC One M8 running 4.4.3 rooted. I was loading Xposed apps last night, selected them in the framer and attempted a reboot. Now the phone locks at the verizon screen. Do not know how to get past it. Any suggestions?
There is a zip file automatically created by xposed that can be flashed in recovery to disable it in these very situations. I don't know its name or location but I'm sure you can Google it. Go to "install a zip" from your custom recovery and drill down to that folder to find the file, flash it, and you should be able to boot up and disable whatever went wrong in xposed.
If you don't already know, you can get into recovery during a bootloop by forcing a reboot with power+volume up and as soon as it starts to reboot switch to power+volume down. That gets you into bootloader where you can select recovery.
That is what I was looking for in an answer. My only problem right now is that when I try a hard reset it is just going through the normal boot and locking on the Verizon screen.
I believe that the FastBoot may have been enabled. I think that is my problem. But I don't know how to get by it.
I was finally able to get it to reset. But I couldn't find the zip file option. I just TWRP reset. It's working.
This guide is intended for the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime, but it may work on other devices if you have the same issue.
The problem: You can only boot into recovery, and bootloader/download mode.
What you need: Stock Recovery, Odin v3.10.6 (This is what I used at least), TWRP Recovery and TrapKernel.
Download those and when you are done boot your device into Bootloader/Download mode.
Guide for 'beginners'
Connect it to your computer.
You should already have TrapKernel flashed then good, if not then flash if by clicking BL(It doesn't make a difference from what I have noticed, if you choice BL or AP but in my case I choice BL) and selecting it TrapKernel. Hit start.
Your device will start normally. This Doesn't fix your problem yet. Turn your device off and boot back into Bootloader/Download mode.
Click BL again and select the stock recovery you downloaded.
Click start.
Your device is now booted normally, but yet again this is expected and doesn't fix the problem.
Turn your phone off. It will boot into recovery again, scroll down and click "Reboot into Bootloader"
Now hold your power, vol down, and home button until your device turns off and turns on.
It will prompt you, hit vol up.
Now go back into Odin and hit BL again, and find TWRP recovery.
Hit start and it will, once again start your device normally.
Your device is now fixed. Don't believe me? Power off and power it back on. It will boot normally.
For more experienced people that just want the basics of what to do:
Flash TrapKernel if you haven't already.
Flash Stock Recovery (By itself), then flash TWRP Recovery(By itself).
Your problem should be solved.
Have any problems or think I didn't explain this good enough? Tell me. I am open to constructive criticism.
Very important root necessity
very important root necessity before you try to root your phone you must go to the developers options and check the "device to allow OEM bootloader unlock"this way it can allow the bootloader to be unlocked and you can then gain root. Sincerely Bricked for days.
Your sir are a savior
I'm sorry if I come off as crazy. BUT THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH. I just got done typing out a lengthy reply in the rom's forum about the "Device reboots into recovery" issue. I wish I had read around for your reply. Jesus man, you saved my bacon. I will like your post. Both of them.
