Well i recently put a custom ROM(Cyanogen 7) and at first it was all good but when I tried to revert it back to the regular ROM was when the problem started. Now everytime i start the phone all i get is the Cyanogen 7 loading animation and it just keeps playing over and over. Did i brick my phone? Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried to reset everything, i've tried to download another custom ROM over it and had no luck, and i've tried to find the original ROM on the computer but was unable to. Help please

Did you mess around with a custom kernel along with your CM ROM?
You can still get into Clockwork recovery, correct? Get one of the stock nandroid images from the Development section and reflash both the stock kernel and stock system partitions.

Hey there,
I have an interesting problem, and it has completely stumped me for the past couple days. I recently S-Off'd my Sensation, put cwm recovery on it, and set my CID to 11111111.
I haven't had any problems with that (except that I had to change computers to do it, Revolution didn't want to run right on my laptop or set the CID, so I had to use my desktop).
Now the problem comes when I try to flash a custom ROM. The first one I tried flashing was CM7. When it booted, I got a bootloop problem of the CM7 mod logo over and over. I decided maybe it was a problem with CM7 still being in alpha. Then I tried flashing HyperSensation 1.8, and got the same error (bootloop) on the loading screen. After trying various other ROMS, I realized that it was a common problem with all custom ROMS. Luckily I had backed up the stock setup, and was able to get into that. So it's not a problem with the hardware. I have only tried flashing gingerbread ROMS. I know that ICS ROMS need a new firmware, but I dont want to mess with that unless I can actually get a gingerbread ROM working first...
Any ideas? There was a thread or two about this (on other phones) but didn't have any solutions listed..
Thanks for any ideas people can give me!

Hi,
Did you root your phone?
Did you flash the superwipe zip first?
Also are you getting full reboots with HTC splash screen then animation or just the animation looping? Sometimes I have to let mine loop for 5 minutes after first boot of new rom before it settles.

I guess I hadn't done everything.. I didn't factory reset before flashing the new ROM... As soon as I did that it boot right in. That's a bit odd to me, as I didn't have to do that with my last phone.
Anywho, solved.

ok so i rooted a few weeks ago and downloaded the usual apps. super user titanium back up and clock work mod. tried to flash a rom with clock work mod and got the e:signature verification failure message. found a post for a kernal that made clock work mod actually work so i tried to flash a rom. zSimplyAOKPV5_Dark to be exact. now it sticks on boot screen. i have searched for hours and cannot find a way to fix my problem. its my first rooted android and first attempted rom flash and i botched it right off the rip. please help?
Depending on what you did beforehand, you have some options.
If you have backed everything up previously, just flash back to stock with one of the one-click stock roms in the Development section (they're in a sticky).
If you haven't backed everything up, try holding V+/V-/power until it reboots. If it doesn't take you to recovery, you can try to flash a kernel (most likely one that would match the version of android/rom you were running prior to this flash) and see if it lets you into recovery. You'll have to flash it with either Odin or Heimdall, after rebooting into download mode (power off, hold V+/V-, insert USB).
If that doesn't work, though, the stock flashing would probably be your best and/or only bet.
it wont allow me into recovery though i can get to download mode by pulling the battery and pressing just the volume +- and plugging in the usb. i was trying to flash an ics slim rom. thanks for your very speedy response.
i have now tried to flash a stock rom however it is not working from there even with the stock kernal. now it is hanging on the at&t screen.
ok i got it. seems the kernal i flashed to help cwd work properly was the culprit. now i dont know how im going to flash this ics rom im looking at without it.

Flash corn kernel if you have stock gingerbread
Sent from my SGH-I897
The utility in my signature can help you flash the Corn Kernel so that you will have CWM.
I have corn kernal and odin 3 on the computer at home. Ill do that tonight. Any suggestions on a good stable rom for a noob? Preferably ics. I hated posting for fear of being flamed as a noob. My wife keeps making fun of me for it so I kinda have to get it done. I want to fix hers also. Its a great little phone it just seem a bit buggy to me. Very laggy. Thanks for all the help.

Maybe start with a KK4 based rom such as Legend and then move up to ICS after that. I only say that because there is a bug in ICS that could render your internal SD unusable. It's rare, but when it happens you will not be happy.
Still unable to get corn kernal to flash. I've tried a few of your guys fixes but I'm gonna have to get some other updates to my computer first.

Sorry to know, well if you find any solution then do share it here.
1) Are you sure the ROM you downloaded is for your phone?
2) Did you try downloading the ROM again? (You could have gotten a bad download.)
Sounds like a soft brick i had this happen several times. Start up in recovery, restore backed up rom, reboot, redownload the rom you are trying to flash, boot recovery, wipe your cache delv, and factory, than try again. If that doesnt work the rom you downloaded is bad. If you didnt make a recovery, take your SD out put it in your computer, download a rom go it that you know definitely works, put it back in your phone and than juat flash the working rom.
Fixing Permission while in recovery has done miraculous things for me and I did not see that you mentioned that. Also on some devices (HTC namely) if you are not running the right bootloader version some ROM's won't boot, EX running CyanogenMod ROM on hboot 1.58. Search your device forum and see if the answer lies there...and whatever it is that is causing this, once resolved please pot back so that others can learn from your experience.
Well the problem is my phone (Spice CSL MI 410) comes in different models in different countries and even different types like cdma/GSM etc. Its Spice CSL MI 410,Wellcom, Motorola Truimph, Huwaie Ideos X6 etc etc So i don't know if this Rom fits my model as here only Ideos x6 forum is present and i downloaded from there, still i will try to redownload it
I have a rooted Sprint Galaxy Nexus and i tried flashing it with CyanogenMod Nightly and now its stock on the CyanogenMod boot screen and has been that way for 8 hours i tried unrooting and flashing back to stock but it wont work. I also tried restoring with nandroid backup still didnt work. What else can i do??? I need my phone back to normal so i can use it. Even if I have to put back to boring stock in some other way. idc JUST SOMEBODY HELP ME!!
so It has been a few months since I flashed a new ROM.
The Last ROM I installed was a the stable release for 10.2 d2vzw
I recently decided to update my ROM maybe to a new CM or something difffernt.
Well I tired to download and install Smasher X-6.0 But partway thru the flashing process, it failed.
I rewiped and tired again and again, Even tired to reinstall CM. and It keeps failing.
Now when I attempt to turn my phone off, TWRP says i need to fix root, and when I turn my phone back on it goes straight to TWRP.
Its been so long since I have had a problem with my phone, I now dont know what to do to even maybe fix it.
Im guessing I might need to completely restore my phone, and then maybe moving forward from there, but I cant find anything to help.
Please someone help me fix my phone
EDIT: I am also not sure which Kernel Im using, So im not even sure if I can ODIN back to stock and just redo the whole process.
