Boot Loop!!!! Boot looped in Stock TnT boot animation AAAAAHHHHH

I have no idea what went wrong, this morning I tried turning my gtablet on and suddenly it went into a boot loop!! I have no idea what I did with it except turn it on this morning. I kept seeing the same TnT Lite boot animation over and over again. All day I have been trying to get it out of the loop, but nothing has worked, I tried what Roebeet posted in that huge thread on his firmware, didnt work, went to try the droidpirate method and it brought me back to the Stock TnT boot animation, however, its looped there now too! Im running on TnT Lite 3.1.3, and Im really scared, someone please help!!!! :O
If there is anything, any of you can do for me i would be greatly appreciative!!! Thank you

I don't know what method droidpirate suggested but.
Install Clockwork recovery from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
clockwork 0.8 not the one from the market

Boot into clockwork recovery using Power/Vol+
Go to the advance menu in clockwork and repartition your sdcard to 2048 and 0
If you boot using Power/vol+ and you don't get clockwork recovery then it is not installed. Check your recovery/command file and make sure its there and is pointing to the right sdcard

Thank you so much! All is well, now just to restore all my apps and stuff... but thank you!! It worked exceptionally

I am having the same problem. I have tried formating, and clearing cache, also tried factory restore. Still no luck. Just get flashing TNT screen, and then blank screen. Anything you can offer would be great.
**Update: I used the NVFlash process and that worked.

Hey,
I have had the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy SL-i9003 , Every morning when i wake up i founds the phone gets into boot loop and after removing the battery and starting it again all the data losts.
The solution i have got from Samsung Service Center is that they have changed PBA(Mother Board) of the phone as well as the Sim tray.

Nexus S won't boot to OS

I have the Nexus S from Telus.
It was rooted, unlocked, running CM7. However I've been having issues with it freezing and decided I want to go back to the stock rom.
I ended up downloading what I thought was stock ROM for my phone (Stock GRH78 Nandroid Backup in this Tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884093) however after it flashed my phone, I ended up with a phone which was essentially stuck in Airplane mode, would not connect to Telus. I'm guessing that it has the wrong radio for my phone/carrier?
So then I ended up finding a zip file someone posted Stock-GRJ22-i9020A-unsigned which should have worked, I ended up flashing the zip file from recovery.
It said it installed fine. Rebooted, and now the phone just cycles the Samsung Loading screen endlessly.
I tried to go back to recovery, and it gives me yellow triangle with !.

Is there any way to flash the recovery image back to the phone?
I plug the phone in and the PC won't recognize a device.
I installed the Android SDK
Ran the command adb devices, no devices attached to the PC.
I tried fastboot devices - blank
I don't know how I'll be able to get files back onto the phone SD Card for flashing etc...

I had the exact problem two days ago...flashed an image that jacked my phone up. Wouldn't boot past the google logo. Sat there indefinitely.
Read this thread and see if you can get it work. In a nutshell, you need the PDA net drivers installed. Since PDA net can't install the app on your phone (because it's not booted into an OS) leave the install program in limbo and voila, fast boot will work. From there, push the recovery.img (google Clockworkmod recovery image), boot into recovery and you are off to the races.
This is, of course, assuming you already have a ROM image on your internal SD card you can flash to get back up and running. I'm not sure how to install a .zip image ROM if you can't gain access to your SD card.

Good luck, I know the feeling. It blows.

Ah, just found out how to install a file on a phone that won't boot.
You do need to flash CWM recovery first though.

Good news! I tried a factory reset/data wipe and rebooted the phone.
It doesn't hang anymore, all functions restored and the phone is working on Telus again!
I guess I had to format data, clear cache, before the flash of the rom.
So relieved.
Issue has been solved!

[Q] CWM boot problem. HELP!

Hey guy's I am running CWM on my EEPAd and until recently I was running revolver mod pre ICS. I downloaded ROM manager from the market place to get the back-up of the Revolver ROM. After I installed rom manager and started the back-up it froze half way and rebooted my transformer. When the tablet rebooted it went into recovery automatically and I seem to have lost the revolver mod after trying different methods to fix it I did a full format on my SD-card and I still can't get CWM to read the updated files on my sdcard. On a side note CWM only reads what was on the SD card before the update even after i for mated it having nothing on there. And if I try to use a previous recovery I just get a "mD5" dosent match error sign.
I hope you can help.

[Resolved] [Q] Stuck On ClockworkMod Recovery!!!

Okay so I'm really thinking I bricked my phone but I hope I did not! I am phone-less right now.
First, I changed my stock ROM to MIUI Android 2.4.6 but it started to slow down a couple of hours later so I wanted to switch back to my stock ROM. I backed it up on my SD card and when I wiped data and cleared all cache in recovery mode, I went to backup and restore and tried to restore my stock ROM.
It said MD5 sum not found and it was an error. Right now I am stuck on the recovery mode without any other ROM to flash other than the stock ROM I thought was gonna work that was in my SD card. Now that I'm at the recovery mode menu, when I try to select on something, a Android opened box with an arrow coming out of it pointing towards an Android icon is showing up.
EDIT: Problem was resolved by taking out the battery and putting it back in which allowed me to boot back into CWM and flash another rom.

[Q] ROM issues

I tried following some guide online to get my S3 rooted and running stock Jelly Bean and all was going so well...Casual Root worked like a charm, cyanogen all set. But when I went to install the ROM and Gapps in recovery it kept getting hung up. I assumed this was due to encryption on the device from my work email, so I went back to factory andremoved the account and decrypted the device.
Then it was back to recovery to flash the ROM and Gapps. All seemed to go well,the ROM installed fine, Gapps installed fine, but reboot got stuck at the cyanagenmod loop. I had mad a backup of the original ROM, but I must have saved it to the internal SD card by accident before i factory wiped. I thought my best bet would be to load the Gapps and ROM onto my external SD and flash from there, but I cant get it to mount.
The one good thing that I can do is get to the Odin boot screen. Anyone think there's a chance I can get Odin to flash something that will boot? And does anyone have suggestions of what to flash?
