This forum won't allow me to post on the roms section because I have less than 10 posts -_-. I did everything required, I wiped data cache dalvik cache and used rom manager to make a backup. Then used it's install rom from sd card. The flash failed I get a boot logo that never goes past boot. Booted into ClockworkRecovery using the 3 button trick. It beeps five times and the green light comes on but the screen is black and ADB can't see the device when I adb remount. Any suggestions?
Please trash this thread I don't see a way to do it. I fixed my own problem.

I successfully rooted my G2 and then decided to install Miui. I did so by downloading Rom Manager. I selected to install zip file from SD card in Rom Manager, but did not back up my current ROM, because it did not work when I did ask to back up. When the phone restarted it goes to the Miui main boot up screen with the orange and purple lines and it just stays there flashing every 30 seconds or so. I then tried to restore to factory settings and no matter what option I chose from the main screen, my phone just sits on the icon with the top hat and orange arrow for hours doing nothing. Hopefully this is not irreparable. Please help me in anyway you can.
Try re-flashing. If you can get to the clockwork mod screen do a factory reset, then go advanced menu and toggle on usb mode and connect to your PC. This will give access to the sd card via windows. Then you can transfer a doable ROM zip file to it, or retry the downloaded file, but make sure you factory reset clearing all data, cache, dalvik cache etc. first. Let me know how it goes
i fixed it by installing a the factory ROM on the root of my SD card.
Hey guys, I flashed the mod located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692233&page=9
It mentioned that it would work on any Sense 4.0 Rom.
i'm running CleanROM 3.0 SE.
Since flashing, I'll get to the HTC boot logo, then the screen goes black. The backlight is on, and the softkeys vibrate when pressed, but the volume rocker doesn't work. The power button seems to turn the display on and off though.
I tried:
Wiping cache
Wiping dalvik
Fixing permissions
No luck.
Any ideas?
Can you get into recovery? It said to make a nandroid before flashing, i hope you did so you can restore.
Me being dumb, no I didn't make a nandroid backup. I got lost in the whole confidence thing.
I can access recovery though, it's all the screen will display other than the HTC logo.
I have a nandroid running now. I was thinking of making the backup, performing a factory reset, then installing TiBu and using the "Extract from Nandroid" function to get what I need out of it, unless you have any other ideas?
ADB isn't working for me, I read somewhere that CWM on the HOX had ADB working, so I can't do much on that end...
I used twrp. Mounted the sd to my pc. Then moved over a tomorrow and installed.
So delete the system and cache and dalvik cache and install the rom. Make sure you unmount the storage when you move the files

Heres my problem...
I don't have the CleanROM zip on my phone anymore. It left me with like 20mb of storage, so I had to get rid of it.
If I flashed twrp using fastboot, would it still allow me to access it and then mount USB?
My P5100 had CM10 nightly on it and was running fine until I upgraded to the latest version of CM10 after wiping the cache & Dalvik cache. After the upgrade I couldn't get Google Play to run even after wiping its data and fixing permissions so I tried to do a CWM restore. Unfortunately there was a fault restoring the Data partition and now my tablet is stuck at the animated bootscreen. If I long-press the power button it powers off but immediately restarts. There is no way to start in in recovery or flash mode. I've plugged it into my PC and the Samsung Android ADB interface is showing but the other references to the tablet all have a yellow triangle in Device Manager. I'm hoping some clever person can help me rescue the tablet with ADB. Thanks!

IF CWM is not working use Odin to flash CWM again then use CWM to flash CM10,
You may need to do a factory reset (full wipe) from CWM.
If all else fails use Odin to flash stock JB ROM

Thanks but Odin cannot see the tablet to re-flash the recovery.
Downlods mode
Then flash new firmware

That's the problem - I cannot access download mode
UPDATE - it just started in download mode! I can manage from here!!
Just for the record you can install adb on the pc and run the command 'adb reboot recovery'. This will force the tablet to reboot in recovery mode.

Jeez, this has taken up most of the day to fix. I came across many problems I have not previously experienced:
1. When the tablet was stuck at the boot animation and I tried to turn it off by long-pressing the power button it immediately restarted. The only way I could get it to turn off was by long-pressing the power button whilst it was connected to my PC.
2. Flashing the stock ROM with Odin appeared to complete successfully but it would never fully boot, it always got stuck at the black & white Samsung screen. Same problems turning it off as above.
3. Flashing CWM with Odin caused the tablet to reboot into the stock ROM which would not load, in the end I had to untick the "reboot" button in Odin, power it off then manually restart with the Vol- & power buttons.
4. The only way I could get a bootable ROM was by flashing CM10 with CWM. I tried to restore 2 previous CWM backups but on each occasion there was an error restoring the Data partition and I got stuck at the scenario at (1). The backups were made to the external SD card with CWM Touch - is the Touch version unreliable?
I would be really interested if anyone could shed any light on any of this stuff!
For how long did you let it install during the first reboot? It happened to me too, and it took about 10 minutes, maybe even more...
Also, did you try in the "Mount and storage" cwm menu the options "format system", "format data", "format cache" and "format preload" options, prior to re-flashing a ROM? I have read somewhere that for a clean install it's better to do this, as it really clears everything that could mess up the system between two different bases ROMs (like CM and stock).
What I do everytime is using in CWM these 4 "format" options, plus "wipe" system, cache and dalvik, then immediately after this I flash with cwm the new "zip" copied on the card. Then the first reboot is much longer than usual, as at this stage it installs the files, rebuild the dalvik cache etc.
Good luck

I think I gave it a good 20 mins to boot. When I got up this morning there was an error message saying that there was no room to install any more apps even though I had very few installed. Settings -> Storage would not calculate the space available so I figured that the partitions had become corrupted. I did the step by step format you described and reflashed & it all seems to be OK now.
Hi all,
I decided to flash a different radio to see if that would have an influence on a couple of small signal issues i've been having with Bruce's CM10. After flashing it using the bootloader I restarted the phone and I can no longer get past the CM10 loading screen. I pulled the battery and turned the phone on holding power and down to get to the boot loader (eventually hoping to get to recovery). The bootloader trys to install the radio again and I'm forced to reboot the phone. How do I get out of this cycle of trying to get to the bootloader and it trying to install the radio again?
Thanks
I sorted it by doing
adb reboot recovery
Then wiping the cache in recovery. It rebooted and said "Android is upgrading" and then everything was back to normal.
I would have deleted the post but couldn't find the delete button.

Delete the PG58IMG from sd card (I presume that radio was a PG58IMG file) or move into a folder. otherwise next time that you go into bootloader it will start to update the radio again and again....
Normally, you should just have to wipe cache and you'll be fine. I had to reflash the entire ROM, but hopefully cache should be enough.

My problems began when i was trying to flash a new rom on my Nexus 5
I was trying to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655722 but despite doing a factory reset and wiping the dalvik cache and cache it refused to boot in to the new rom
I tried to flash the rom multiple times but without success, eventually when trying to boot into recovery to try again i was greeted with an unthemed TWRP recovery asking for a password despite the fact that i had a custom theme and multirom installed I tried to proceed anyways but was greeted with E: unable to mount storage
In desperation i tried to solve this problem and found this

TWRP asking for password
After unboxing my Nexus 5, here's what I did:
1. Booted into bootloader
2. fastboot oem unlock
3. Flashed TWRP v2.6.3.0
4. Booted to recovery
The screen that greeted me says "Please Enter Your Password".
I can hit the cancel button below this which takes me to the normal TWRP screen. I then pushed SuperSU to /sdcard, but when I flash it it fails because it's unable to mount /cache or storage.
When I reboot to the system, it takes an awfully long time (approximately 30s) to progress past the "Google" screen, and then it just seems to sit on the booting animation forever.
Any help?
EDIT: Solved my own problem.
Hit cancel at the password screen, then go into Wipe and then do a factory reset by swiping. Then go back into Wipe and press the 'Format data' button. You have to type 'Yes', and it will take a few seconds. After that everything should work normally.

I now fear that i maybe without both a rom and all my files such as my music that was stored on my phone.
Is there any way for me to undo the damage i may have done to to my phone?
You can't recover the data. But you can push files over with ADB.
