My XT720 die after I miss one step when install a ROM

When I try to install Khalpowers ROM using Namdroid.
I miss one step the "wipe Data / Factory reset." And I reboot the phone.
When the phone rebooting, I just play an clip with an eye and loop forever.
Please help, what should I do now.

[Q] lock up wheel while updating to ics

trying to update to ics did a factory reset in recovery then installed
Eos-wingray-1.0.0 Tiamat-Xoom-3.0.5-gpuoc plus google aps my xoom is currently stock on the wheel loading screen it just keeps going. I have no idea what to do.

Did you also wipe cache and Dalvik cache?
To do a hard reboot hold down the volume up and power buttons for a few seconds...your XOOM should reboot, when you see the red Motorola logo wait 3 seconds and hit volume down...you should see "android recovery" in the upper left corner, when you do, hit volume up to enter recovery.
Also just wanted to make sure, are you currently rooted with your bootloader unlocked and a custom recovery installed?

Yea I also wiped both caches I did a nandriod backup to my last working install a tiamat kernal. I have tried multiple times with no luck the install goes kernal rom then apps right? I'm rooted and the bootloader is unlocked just flashed the lastest recovery still no luck.

I think I have figured it out I have encrypted my xoom which is keeping me from clearing the cache and other things I have tryed a factory wipe but the encryption is still there.

I had the same problem. I could use adb to open a shell on the xoom once the encrypt access password had been entered, but the xoom itself would not get past the boot animation. I eventually had to 'fastboot erase userdata' to clear the encryption out. This erases entire /data directory, so all my files had to be restored from my pc backup. You might be able to back them up through the adb shell if you don't already have them backed up on another device (I don't know for sure).

Can't boot?

So I just flashed my new Inspire and that went well. I downloaded ROM Manager and used it to download CM7 and it brought up an install option after the download finished. There were 3 boxes that said "backup rom", "clear data and cache", and "clear dalvik cache". Dalvik was the only box checked so I assumed that was how it was supposed to be, so I hit instal.
It attempts to install but it gets stuck on the screen where the robot skates into the scene and an arrow circles him. I believe it's called bootlooping?
I booted into recovery and attempted to clear data cache and then reinstall CM7.. Rebooted and still stuck in blootloop.
I think the issue is that I didn't disable fastboot >.<', a pretty dumb mistake to make. I've read that if one can go to settings and disable fast boot it may fix the issue.. but uh, I can't start my phone.. So how do I disable it ?

The issue is that you used rom manager and didn't wipe the phone correctly. Get in recovery, wipe, and re flash it and you should be fine. Fast boot isn't the problem as it is a sense only feature and won't matter once you've changed roms.

I think the issue is that you didn't wipe and have no backup. I have not disable fastboot since my first custom rom. You can still get to hboot and recovery, it just takes a few more key presses.
Boot into fast boot( volume down+ power). Select hboot, this will start the scan of the sd card. As long as you don't have a file with a name it recognizes (such as PD98IMG.zip), it will take you to the hboot menu. Use the volume rocker to scroll down to recovery. Perform a factory data reset, clear cache, navigate to advanced an clear salvo cache. Go back to the first menu and choose install zip from sd card. Choose select zip from sd card and navigate to clockwormod then download. Select your rom and install it. The first boot can take awhile but you seem like you'll be able to tell if you are still bootlooped. Hope this helps and good luck.

htc explorer crashes and reboots again and again
SIZE="4"] Try to fix it , all you have to do is, turn on the phone by holding the on button and the volume - (down) button,boot you into recovery mode, scroll down to recovery then click the power button, when it loads up, look for the option that says "wipe data/factory reset select options on this menu, then if it is there click also on wipe cache partition, then click reboot at the top. Hope this works fine for you.[/SIZE]

Did you backed up your whole data using recovery mode???
If yes than wipe your factory/data, wipe cache partition ,go to advance wipe your dalvik cache, wipe your battery stats and restore your backup
then reboot your phone its done....
and if didnt backup try to flash different rom or download stock rom for your device and flash it...

[Q] I think I screwed up!

I went with this guide to root my Oneplus: http://www.xda-developers.com/how-t...and-install-custom-recovery-xda-developer-tv/
It worked, it is fully rooted (tried installing a root-acces app). It has TWRP recovery.
I wanted to install Mahdi-ROM, I went with this URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-mahdi-rom-2-7-oneplus-camera-4k-t2813107
I copied the GAPPS + Mahdi-ROM, booted into TWRP, went for advanced wipe and selected: Cache, System and Dalvik, like the guide says.
It worked and went on with flashing the Mahdi ZIP and Gapps ZIP. It said installation was succesfull, then it restarted to the onplus (powered by android) screen.
After this screen comes the 4 coloured circles (green blue red yellow) that swirl into each other and out of each other. My phone has been stuck into this screen for around 30/40 minutes now. I cannot turn it off or perform any action at all...
WHAT HAPPENED?

first off of course you can turn it off but log into recovery and just wipe caches and try and reboot. If you dont know how to do that its by holding power button till it goes off then holding vol down and power to get back into recovery.
You can also try wipe system and reflash rom and gapps

I did not realize that I could turn it off while being in this screen. I turned it off, wiped everything this time (ticked 'Data' too) and reinstalled everything.
It works so smooth I can't believe it.. thank you!
