Hey guys, I could really use some help right now. I think my Sensation just went into a boot loop. I've never had it happen to me before, but I was using the XDA app on my phone when all of a sudden the phone went to the CoreDroid boot animation. The animation plays for about 10 seconds, freezes, and then plays again, over and over. I've tried holding down the power button, which doesn't do anything, and I also tried to boot into recovery to no avail as well. I looked up how to to fix a boot loop on an Android phone but it seems like most sites say the first step is to boot the phone into recovery (and like I said, I can't do that). Do I have to pull the battery? I don't want to do that until someone says it's the right step to take because I'm worried that could seriously screw it up.
I'm on CoreDroid 2.4 and on faux's 0.1.2 1.56 GHz NoHz kernel btw. I could really use the help because I'm leaving tonight on a vacation.
OK, update, I ended up pulling the battery, putting it back in, booting into recovery, and rebooting the phone, and it actually worked! You can sure bet that I'm doing TB to back up all my apps/data right now and I might even do a nandroid even though I have a nandroid of CoreDroid 2.3 and a couple others. And boy is boot looping a battery hog! I had 98% right before it began, and after only like 10-15 minutes of boot looping it was at 66% lol (phone got extremely hot too).
Now I'm just curious if this happened because of the kernel or if it might be due to the beta battery monitor widget that I had just installed (I'm not sure if beta apps can cause problems).
Each phone and set up is different. Sounds like a kernel issue. I have read that if your phone reacts in the way described, you should just revert to stock kernel that can be found on coredroid's fixes post.
I have gotten bootloops with one of faux's kernels, I think it was the nohtz 1.7. Now on the JRCU 1.5 with coredroid 2.4.
If you are concerned with bootloops, besides the battery pull, which I personally like to avoid, I just plug it in the usb port and do a adb reboot recovery command from your cmd window. I recommend just reverting to the stock kernel for now until you are comfortable in troubleshooting away from a comp. And remember to always have a nandroid to revert to in case of any emergencies.
As title. I had disabled set on boot prior doing this and set the max clock to 1.5GHz. The tablet froze almost immediately so i restarted it by holding down the power button for 10secs or so. Since then the tablet is stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus logo. I had it set to 1.4GHz stable before this. Any help is appreciated. I want to leave a factory reset as a final resort as i havent backed up my apps.

This problem came when i overclocked my smartphone too much with setcpu
Please someone help, i have tried everything i know
So recently for some reason my Nexus 5 gets stuck on the booting animation. I think it was updating to 6.0.1 or something but I'm not sure, because I just woke up one day and the phone wouldn't boot, and when it finally did it just gets stuck on the boot animation. I've tried to flash stock images and etc but I need an unlocked boot loader and for some reason if the phone doesn't boot completely after unlocking the bootloader, then it gets re-locked. So now my last option is to use the stock recovery to wipe data or something but when I go to the screen with the dead android guy, no combination of buttons seem to make the recovery options show up. If anyone could help that would be great, even if it doesn't involve the stock recovery!

You only need to go back to the bootloader to unlock and then flash factory images, why do you need recovery?
If the bootloader is relocking itself after a reboot, the emmc has probably gone bad and can only be fixed with a motherboard swap.

aw that's unfortunate. thanks anyway
I had two Nexus 5 phones that would bootloop and, eventually, the bootloader would keep relocking each time I rebooted.
I bought a couple of used N5s with busted screens, swapped motherboards, and everything went back to normal. A new motherboard is way too expensive.
Hey all. I followed the instructions for root. I ran the root.bat and my phone restarted on its own. I see the custom icon but than when it gets to the white T-mobile screen it just stays there and every so often it will vibrate?? Can anyone help?
Have you tried a factory reset? I had to reset mine because I had some system apps disabled and it was also stuck on the T-Mobile screen.

That is normal you were supposed to create a backup before becasue flashing a modified kernal and rooting could cause this white T-Mobile screen. All you have to do is reset the phone and upon first boot install trickster mod from play store and set CPU governor to interactive and check apply on boot.
