Defy bootloop - Defy Android Development

Hi,
Yesterday I had a problem with my defy. It powered off out of nothing and when I powered it on again the only thing I saw was the bootloader saying my FW is corrupt. I had 2init but that was also broken. With RSD I flashed a new SBF but when it's done it gets stuck in a bootloop. I tried several SBF's but they al go into bootloop! Can somebody help me out?

Wipe data + cache in stock recovery. Hold volume - + power to get in stock recovery. After that press volume + and - at the same time. Then flash a SBF.

I completely forgot to do that all the time! Thank you! The bootloop was killing me.

sometimes nand cache is messed up so what you an do is:
-switch off the phone completely
-Hold camera down + power button
Once you have the android toon with exclaimation mark
-press up and down simultaneously
-Once you get to stock recovery, just wipe cache and data (factory reset)
And you'll have no more bootloops

[Q] Problem stucking at Samsung Logo after Flashing.

Recently bought a Samsung Galaxy SL I9003, Successfully rooted then tried to install some custom ROM. Got to have XXKPH so I Flashed it with Odin (XXKPM Previously).
After Flashing, Just stuck at the screen with the Samsung Logo after the animation plays. Nothing else.
I tried googling that they said have to untick the Re-Partition while Flashing but problem not solve eventhough after i reflash it....
In Dev Sub-forum
There is a Guide on GB update. Refer to it.
Is my phone Brick or what ? I even tried to flash CF universal root and it now don't even plays the animation . just the Samsung Logo ....
Is it repairable ?
Off your phone, hold volume up+ home+ power buttons and boot into recovery. Then wipe data, wipe cache anand dalvik cache. It should boot

Yes u are right. Wipe up everything. Then flash a new rom via odin.
if the wipe does not work... thats the time you flash the new rom via odin
hello, it's called soft brick, so what i suggest that you get an stock rom from here also the guide how to flash it in there too thanks to <Misledz> here is the trike part when odin is done flashing and also stuck on logo long press power button, until the phone turns off now press vol up+home button+ power button the logo shows release the power and keep pressing the rest. will logo on stock recovery menu do a factory rest and wipe cache then reboot device. now u are in hope so.
root your device here is the guide here
then install the custom rom you want

[Q] Help! RAZR HD stuck on bootloader screen; won't turn off

I know I know, I'm an idiot. I've done this a few times before on my old Droid X, but clearly don't have the experience to be doing this. I now have a RAZR MAXX HD and was attempting to flash RageHE v1.1. Here's what I did and where I am: I unlocked, rooted and flashed stock system, kernel and radio as well as TWRP recovery using Matt Groff's utility. I made a backup in TWRP and then wiped dalvik/cache etc. I then mounted system etc and it asked me if I wanted to reboot. I did, and now I'm stuck on the unlocked bootloader screen. It won't even power down -- I can hold down vol +/- and power and it will temporarily power down, but as soon as I let go it powers back up.
What do I do??? Am I screwed?
well I managed to get it to power down -- I read on droidrzr.com that I could hold power + vol +/- and then as soon as it powers off, quickly press vol +/- again to avoid it powering back up. So now at least I'm powered down, but what do I do next?
OK I think I'm good -- once I got it powered off I was able to power back up using power + vol +/- and boot into TWRP where I restored from my backup. Sorry was freaking out a bit -- shouldn't be messing with things I don't understand well enough

[Q] Not booting to stock recovery???

hello guys,
I have successfully installed the Lollipop release LRX21o... Initially i used the flash-all.sh method... it gave me an error first.. so i clicked flash-all.sh once again.... then it installed everything without any error... Phone booted and everything was working fine.. but when i tried to load the stock recoevery (to wipe everything) pressing the vol + button on recovery screen doesnt get me any where.. all i can see is the android with red triangle.
I tried the manual process of flashing the rom.... same thing happened..
I havent tried any custom recover image.. .So cant tell about others.
Are u guys having the same problem???
Is there any work around?
Have you tried manually reflashing recovery?

The way to get into the stock recovery menu is not by pressing the vol + button.
When you see the Android with the exclamation point, you need to HOLD the power button and then press volume up.

cant use any recovery

hi, i try to boot into recovery, but i get only green android with red triangle, i try via bootloader and via press VOL +/- and POWER button, but in either case I can not access.
I flashed all the latest factory image via fastboot [boot, system, recovery, cache, bootloader, userdata] but the problem persists; the phone works well, i can use it normaly but the recovery is the only part does not working.... some advice? thx
When you see the dead android screen, you're holding down the power button and pressing volume up button?
It looks like you are booting into a stock recovery. Which would happen just after flashing the latest factory image.
What are you trying to achieve?
