I just downloaded the update for the Thunderbolt and when it restarted it stopped at the screen with the little green android and the exclamation mark in the white triangle.
It won't do anything else. I tried holding the power button and volume up, and it did nothing.
When I take out the battery and reboot, it goes to the home screen just long enough to verify the SD card before it shuts down again and tries to install the update.
Any suggestions?
Can you boot into recovery? If so, try clearing your cache and rebooting someone in another thread said that fixed the same issue.
Hold power and volume up to boot into recovery right?
Power and volume down.
Power and volume down if you have installed a custom recovery like Clockwork.
Cache cleared, phone working.
Thanks a ton!

I was in Honeycomb, I'm running Prime 1.6, and I hit the power button and pressed the recovery button. My Transformer has been bootlooping ever since, I can't even turn it off, it keeps turning on then off, etc. I tried NVFlashing a recovery but even when that is flashed when I try and manually enter recovery by holding power down then rocking it up, it just continues the bootloop, turning off then on. Any suggestions? Will I have to NVFlash to stop this? And yes, I searched.
The only way i was able to recover from a bootloop is hold down the power button until you see the tab turn off,as soon as it turns off,hold the volume button down,when you see the text in the upper part of the screen hold the volume button up,it should boot into CWM.
I'm usually pretty good at following instructions but I have a problem. I am rooted with TWRP, stock kernel. I successfully applied the 4.4.1 update and used the phone for awhile no probs. Tried re-applying the 4 way reboot menu mod that I'd used successfully on 4.4.0. TWRP says flash was successful. I rebooted and am stuck at the spinning google colored circles. I cant get into recovery mode by holding the volume up/down and power buttons. The phone vibrates briefly when I hold all three but the logo keeps spinning. Pressing power button only does the same. Tried connecting to PC but mac says can't read device and to reboot it. ?help?
Update - Got her to reboot with volume down/pwer, into TWRP, and restored from backup, Back up and running...
Dear experts,
Phone model: Karbonn A9+
Rom: Custom Rom Hyperion Skyfall
When I hold the power button, the phone turns on and off, No problems with that.
However, when I press volume Up+Power, I get a green screen saying FASTBOOT at the top left corner and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
when I press volume Up+Power, I get a green screen and holding the buttons past that I get a red screen saying RECOVERY at the top left corner and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
However, when I press volume down+Power, I get a black screen saying ENTRY QPST DOWNLOAD at the top and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
I have to remove the battery to turn my phone off.
Moreover, I tried a factory reset erasing internal and external storage, after erasing when the phone is rebooted and gets stuck in the start-up screen. I removed the battery and powered on the mobile ,no problem at all the phone turns on but not resettted.
What I did?
Tried to install latest CWM through recovery, updated it but I pressed something instead of restart your device.
What should I do to make everything work again? I am a noob in Android, please be extra patient and illustrative
Many thanks in advance
So I did a factory reset, the tab rebooted to wipe the device, went to nvidia logo then screen went black, shuts off automatically and I can turn back on just for it to get right past the logo and shut off again, I've tried volume up with power and volume down and same thing happens. Sometimes the power won't even turn it back on for 5-10 minutes. Any suggestions?

Dumb question, but are you sure the battery is charged? I would leave it plugged in for awhile and try again. Then if it still is not booting try to enter download mode while connected to PC. Mine did something similar to this once when I did a factory reset as well. It only recovered after connecting USB to my PC.
I'm guessing you have custom recovery installed?
1. Download the factory image from NVIDIA website (specific to your device version),
2. Go into fastboot by pressing volume down and give a slight nudge to the power button (don't press until the logo comes up, just a quick nudge will do)
3. Unlock your bootloader using the instruction which can be found on this forum (if you have, skip this step) sorry I'm on mobile phone, so a bit hard to do a search for the link with small screen.
4. Unzip the recovery image zip file.
4. While still in fastboot, flash the recovery images using flash-all.bat contained in the unzipped folder.
You will lose your custom recovery and your root, but since you were gonna wipe your device anyway.. let me know if you're stuck somewhere.
I think i might have found fix....
Shut down the device with long press (8sec) Power button
Press and hold Vol down key
Press and release Power key
Device enters fastboot mode
Select Recovery mode option (using Vol up/down for navigation and power key to select)
Device enters recovery mode (after showing NVIDIA boot logo) with Android Robot screen.
Press and release Vol UP + Power button simultaneously
Then select wipe data/factory reset with Vol up/down key to navigate and power key to select
try this but be PATIENT AND wait for it to say erasing then i think ill be normal once its done also just wait with it on the "blank screen" we could have just got ahed of are selves and whent to conclusions and thought it was bricked
I accidentally froze, by my mistake, all my apps with titanium backup, now my Phone is re booting itself after the message "optimizing x app of x"
I'm not able to reboot in recovery neither safe mode but only in fastboot but I'd like to avoid flash stock and restart from scratch, suggestions?
Even to save /sdcard
Thanks in advance

Why?
Shutdown phone from any screen by holding power button for 10 sec (or it turns off). You can do it also while it is optimising apps, does not matter now.
Then hold Vol down+ Power to boot into recovery.
What he said. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to shut it off by holding the power button and then boot into recovery. If you are already doing this then it's probably a case of using the button combo incorrectly (lots of people do). You need to hold volume down, then power (so you're holding them together), then when the phone begins to boot and you see the OnePlus boot logo you need to let go of power but keep holding volume down until you reach recovery. If you keep holding power after seeing the boot logo the phone thinks you just want to reboot again.

Thanks guys, maybe due to panic, cause I need phone and was not at home, I did the button combo incorrectly,
Booted in TWRP and wiped /data did the trick, then reinstalled TiBu and restored all apps
