I have downloaded Bionix NS 1.2 w/stock kernel, moved to sd storage root folder, clockwork recovery, i backed up my stock rom, wipe data/factory reset wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache from clockwork, install zip from sd, install Bionix NS 1.2 w/stock kernel, reboot.
After this i get stuck on the Google screen and have to pull battery.
Does anyone know if I am missing a step?

I followed instructions here to root/cwm my Nexus S:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895545
Everything was working fine for a few weeks then suddenly it would randomly turn off and pushing the power button would not turn on the phone. I would have to remove battery then turn it on.
Starting today, it would turn on by removing battery but would be stuck on google screen and not go anywhere.
I went into fastboot and tried to erase/flash nandroid backup but would get:
C:\Nexus S\Stock ROM\2010-12-22.21.06.07>fastboot flash system system.img
sending 'system' (151459 KB)... OKAY [ 29.074s]
writing 'system'... FAILED (remote: Write Fail)
finished. total time: 29.080s
I can flash boot, recovery, cache, but not data.img or system.img
So I try using restore in CWM and everything loads fine from backup/recovery but when I reboot still stuck on google screen... I don't know what else to try. Any one able to help? Thanks!!!
Get the GRH78 Nandroid backup and restore it in clockwork recovery
just download a stable ROM like Bionix 1.2
and use CW recovery to mount the SD copy it over
then install the ROM zip using CW recovery
WIPE data(factory reset), reflash your rom, reflash your gapps(if needed), reboot.

Im having similar issue with the bionix 1.2, what part of the process is reflashing the rom and what is reflashing the gapps?
Sorry, just trying to figure out why I cant get by the boot screen on custom roms.

you're missing to wipe: Factory, Data Cache, Dalvik Cache (Advanced)
after you wipe THREE... then flash bionix NS 1.2 (install zip from sdcard)
then reboot.
yup. wipe wipe wipe...

Well OK, i wiped data/factory reset, wipe cache partiion( i think that is what you mean when you said Data Cache, and cleared dalvik cache and install,
Still stuck at google on Bionix NS 1.2 w/stock kernel. Any other suggestions?
I followed the guide for Root 2.3.3 On a Mac WITH OEM Unlock!
I got everything good it seems. Running CWR 3.0.0.5 but after I do the
16) Choose "choose zip from sdcard"
17) Choose "su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip"
It works and installs successfully but after my reboot it remains at the Google Logo. I've let it sit there for quite some time. I've read also that I might need CWR 3.0.2.4? I tried flashing CM7 but it aborts.
Any suggestions?
If you did the nandriod of stock rom then do the full wipe. Wiping these, factory data, cache partition & in the advanced section wipe dalvik cache. Then flash the rom.
GT-I9020 or 9023 ?
Anyway try with CWR 3.0.2.4.
Ok, a pinch of history. I have had many Hardware problems and I am now on my 4th G-Tablet. Finally got a NEW one as a replacement. I got it home today and loaded it up. Let it update and the latest build still stinks.
So I installed cwMod .8 and then CM7.0.3 stable. It then started to hang at the "Viewsonic" Screen. I realized that I likely had the boot loader problem since I was installing over a newer version of stock.
I wiped back to stock with nvFlash and allowed it to update to 3588 since my understanding is that this is the transition point I need to be at. I reinstalled CWMod .8 and then loaded CM7.0.3 again but it hangs at the startup screen with the spinning circle.
So I tried installing Vegan 7.0.0 RC1 and this also hangs at the pshycodelic "Vegan-Tab" startup screen. Any thoughts about what is going wrong?
have you tried repartioning 2048/0?
It shouldn't be a bootloader issue, as 3588 is a 1.1 bootloader, as is CWM .8 and CM7. It's probably an easy fix (I hope) try repartioning, wiping data, etc...
i think it's not in the hardware problem.. try repartitioning sd card select 2048 then 0, then reboot..
for clean install, use nvflash + calkulin's format all, then partition sdcard for assuring.. cause i dont know if calkulin's format all does partition..
then install your desired rom + wipe data + wipe cache + devilk cache wipe(advance setting cwm)
I just posted about an issue like this and I had a ton of trouble with it the format or wipe data did not work but repartitioning the sd card worked like a charm thanks alot.
I have clockworkmod recovery installed and rooted. It's been a few months since I rooted, and can't remember exactly what I did, but OTA updates stopped working. Hence, I am still on gingerbread.
Trying to flash a custom rom now, CM9. I tried the rom manager method several times, found out that wasn't recommended, and then tried the recovery method.
The same thing happens either way: it boots into CM9, but the boot animation keeps playing.
With the rom manager method, I tried wiping nothing, then tried wiping dalvik only, then tried... whatever the other option was, wipe cache and data?
With CMW recovery I downloaded CM9 zip and the appropriate GAPPS, moved onto the internal SD card, booted into recovery mode Wipe data/factory reset, then Wipe cache partition, then install both.
I'm able to restore from backup each time, but this is annoying.
Thank you
1. Install ICS Radio (UCLF6)
2. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
3. Format /System
4. Install CM9.zip
5. Install Gapps.zip
6. Wipe Cache/Dalvik
7. Reboot
:good:

So "UCLF6" appears to be rom that is similar to stock, I'm guessing the idea here is that I'm resetting the phone but retaining root, the idea being that something on my phone is messed up and preventing CM9 from booting but doesn't prevent the current rom from booting?
Two other questions
1. Won't format/system wipe out all my backups in addition to my data?
2. Have you had or seen this problem before? I'm hesitant to commit myself to something, especially with no backups, if it's just a theoretical fix. I do appreciate it either way.
UCLF6 is an ICS modem/radio you need if you're coming from gb.
If you back up though CWM you can restore again later if you want.
Formatting /system will delete the operating system.
Formatting /data will delete your apps/settings/wallpaper etc...

I had a similar boot animation loop when I went from stock GB to stock ICS. What seemed to fix it was updating my CWM from 5.0.2.6 (non-touch) to 5.5.0.4 (touch). (BTW, I couldn't find an advantage of stock ICS over stock GB. I have since put on CM9 which I'm liking).

Still got the boot loop.
When I did the "Wipe data/factory reset" I did get an error message during one of the processes"
"Error mounting sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping format"
I had a boot loop problem when I first tried to flash JB. I went from GB to ICS with a custom rom a few months back, but I couldn't get any of the new JB roms to work. I ended up having to upgrade my CWM to the touch version in order to get JB flash to work. Also, a tip-- the boot animation will take a minute or two even when it is working. Don't assume it is still a problem if you see it more than once.
Well I dont think I totally screwed it up because I am able to get to the recovery but here is the scoop.
I decided I was going to root and install jellybean. So I used the 1 click method to root from [TOOL]"1-Click Transformer Root"-Root/Unroot/cwm/stock rec-TF101(G)/201/300T(G)/SL101 - xda-developers
I did the 1.1 verison. All went well tablet was rooted my stock rom still worked fine.
Then I went to flash jellybean rom which i did this one here v6.0 [ROM][JB][4.1.1] AOSP build #6.0.0 - xda-developers
Before i flashed i made a nand back up. and wiped all cache.
After install of RaymanFX's jellybean rom it got stuck after the splash animation.
I then tried to reflash it. Only to see the same result.
So I cleared all the cache again and ran the nand backup i made now i am stuck at asus splash screen.
Someone please tell me what i am missing.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Copy this ROM to your SDcard or MicroSD card, whichever one you used to hold the ROM the first time
http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/eos4/EOS4.2.2-tf101-20130408_previewB190.zip
Copy these Gapps to the same place
http://goo.im/devs/teameos/roms/eos4/gapps/gapps_4.2.2_TF101_20130323b.zip
Copy this Kernel to the same place
http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/K.A.T/kernel/Tim_KatKernel_102_JB4.2_Lidpatch.zip
Boot into Recovery, Wipe System, Cache and Dalvik Cache
Flash the ROM
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache only
Flash the Kernel
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache only
Flash Gapps
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache only
Reboot
All being well, you will boot into EOS4 (Jellybean 4.2.2)
Also, this tool is the best way to root / flash custom recovery and to unbrick
