My g2x keeps rebooting over and over again! This happened after i mounted it to my pc. it tries to read my sd card then just reboots over and over again. I have nv flash and tried to restore old back up but still does it. can any one help im thinking i need to flash stock.
you need to do a factory reset if your nandroid backup doesn't work. if that doesn't work reflash the rom.
I already did a factory reset and wipe and tried to re install the rom. it just continues to reboot. It starts up and if quick i can get into my lock screen and access things but within seconds it reboots and continues to do that
What rom are you using?

I was on a stock rooted rom when the problem happened. so i then i did a restore. when that didnt work i reflashed the stock rom that was posted on forum. i think it has something to do with my internal memory which i cannot access. this all happened when i was trying to back up my sd card while in usb and it just got an error when i unplugged it enless reboot.

I was hoping it was something simple like undervolting with a custom rom. I wish I could help. It sounds like you tried everything I would recomend. Maybe one of the real Android techie type guys can help you. I am still learning myself.

Hello everyone. It seems like the issue is getting worst and I think I've narrowed down the problem... Now I just need a solution and we can all be happy
So sometimes my phone decides to restart itself and it will not boot back up. The only solution is to remove the battery and try again. It could be solve after a couple tries in the past, and now I find myself sitting for half an hour + trying to get this phone running again. I do have clockwork installed, and it seems like my issue is with my SD card. When trying to mount/unmount my SD card via clockwork, there is an error doing do. Sometimes I can't access my pictures because of the same problem. Does anyone know if there is anything I can do to remedy this situation?
Thanks!

are you using a custom rom or kernel?
I used to, but now it is just stock rom rooted
Edit: I lied, seems like when I restored, the kernal stayed the same.... I assume I can just flash a stock kernal over my modded one?

have you tried redownloading the rom and reflashing it?
Note the edit above. Just checked my settings and it looks like I still have my old kernal..( non stock) I dont seem to be able to find a stock kernal anywhere... Do you happen to know where I can find one?
theres probably a version of the stock rom floating around with the stock kernel already included. check the developement threads.
Stock rom, check stickies in General section.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I reverted everything back to stock with the exception of the bootloader still being unlocked. I thought the issue was fixed, and I have not had issues with the phone since. Until today when I decided to restart it. Same issues as before not being able to mount the sd card, which seems to be required to boot. Any ideas? Is the sd card in the nexus s actually there? Maybe it came loose?
The basic deal is I got bored of the software and decided that I should root an install some custom ROMs on my Nexus S.
I used the One click method posted I believe in the general forum and everything went smoothly. I downloaded the latest AOKP and CM zips, put them onto my phones memory and went on with my day.
So today I began to put on the AOKP ROM and it got stuck at the initiating swagger screen. And was stuck there for a good 20minutes. I didn't know what to do, so I battery pulled.
I thought I had some backup saved from the day before, but that wasn't the case. So now I'm essentially stuck in thee boot menu for clockwork and my phone has been rendered useless. If any of you guys know what I should do, please tell, I'm extremely pissed off at myself for letting this happen.
I deleted the Cache partition and Dalvik thing when I was first getting ready to put on the ROM. I didn't to a factory wipe, so that might be an issue? I don't know. I've also tried plugging the phone into my computer, but because I cant turn on USB mass storage, I can't look through that either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi,
If ur in the bootloader screen scroll down until u see recovery. Then press the power button.
From recovery scroll down to mounts and storage to connect to computer via USB.
From here u have a few options bjt i would just download another ROM and its gapps or a ROM that already contains them.
Just be careful to get the correct zips for ur type of phone
Good luck

Wow. Thanks a lot. Do you think I should do a factory reset before I install a new rom?
EDIT: Hey vidaljs, thanks for the help! I got the CM10 ROM up and running, apparently I was running some really old version! That USB mount thing really helped!!

No worries
Next thing u should do is make a backup of this working ROM so u can always go back to it in a pinch.
And always follow what the developers suggest in their thread since they created it.
But when I go to a new ROM, I always do a factory reset, wipe cache and wipe Dalvic.
If u haven't found it yet, use titanium backup for ur apps so its easier to apply them to ur newly flashed ROM. The free version is fine but I've heard that paid version has some extra useful benefits.
Good luck and happy flashing.

Hi guys,
Almost same stroy, I tried to Root & install Cyanomodgen 10 on my Nexus S, but boot isn't working quite well, and I'm stuck at a circling image preparing the launch.
Recovery isn't working I got stuck at the image with the robot and the back and the exclamation mark on top of it and like 5 minutes later it launch the cyanomodgen ring again - and can't get in download mode.
I pretty don't get what I should do.
Any idea?
I feel I lack some info on my problem, I'll create a fresh post for it
thanks
So, I'm really sorry if there is an easy answer to this....but I swear I have looked....
I was running CM10.0 on a rooted gs3. I tried to update to 10.1 and the phone lost its mind. I booted it into TWRP and tried to do a factory reset, but that didn't help. Originally the phone would start. But gmail, the play store and most apps all crashed. So I kept messing around in recovery trying to undo the update.
Getting frustrated and confused I apparently wiped my system. I can't start the phone at all. I tried to flash another custom ROM which failed.
What is the easiest way to fix this? Would it be to use ODIN and flash a ROM? The only reason I didn't try this yet is I'm confused about the no OS. I start work as a pediatric intern tomorrow and need to have a working phone. I would normally spend more time trying to figure this out on my own but I'm kind of a nervous wreck at the moment, and need to try and get some sleep before the big day tomorrow.
I really don't care if the phone gets unrooted and back to stock, I just want a working phone...

Well likely you somehow corrupted one of the system partitions.
ODIN back to stock and it should fix everything

You will need to go to a Stock Image via Odin.

Thanks guys, I finally got it working!
I thought that was what I needed to do, but I was so confused when it said I erased the OS...
Now to try and get some sleep before the first day on the job!
So I had cm12 installed and something happened to where my.phone was lagging so I said screw it and reflashed, while something happened and now I tried to while everything. Well I think I did something wrong because I lost all my apps in the app drawer,but when I go into file manager all my stuff is still there,but now the last couple times I tried to reboot the charging light was flashing red to yellow, but when I take the battery out and put it back in it reboots fine back to the screwed up home screen. Still with all my apps and pictures. Viewable in file manager.someone please help I'm freaking out thinking my phone is screwed up for good ....
Very hard to understand you. What ROM did you flash to now? Does TWRP work, can you get into TWRP?
Yes I can get into twrp,basically it threw me back into my cm12 ROM with none of my apps,and I tried to reflash Google apps and it didn't work,so if I can get into twrp is there a way to fix this by doing like a general full factory reset? And if so exactly how do I do that? I dunno this sucks....I dont wanna try anything else until I kinda have an idea what to do, don't wanna screw it up anymore

If you don't know how to factory reset you probably shouldn't be flashing in the first place. I highly suggest just doing a clean flash and flash Gapps right after you flash CM 12. In order to wipe data, you just click wipe in TWRP.
No I know how to factory reset lol.it's just I did that and when it would go to restart I got little error code up in left hand side of screen. But it doesn't matter because thanks to androidrootz I downloaded New firmware connected it to pc and completely reinstalled operating system. So I'm not rooted or anything and I'm back to square one, .but much better than where I was at.
If your custom Rom was bugging out it could have been a corrupted download. Sometimes all you can do is start from scratch. If you want to flash custom, you need to expect these things. Remember that this is a development site. I have seen where the same Rom acts differently on the exact same phone model. This could be due to a variety of things such as microscopic differences in hardware (this is one of the reasons phones of the same model handles being overclocked more our less than others), settings, tweaks, or apps installed.
Hey guys, I was gifted a transformer tf700t, well I tried doing custom ROM's or some **** or tried putting a new OS on it, and now it's all ****ed up. It tries to boot into "Cromi-K" or some ****, but I can go into recovery I think it's called and use TWRP or the other popular one and flash images, only I don't know what images to flash to just get it back to stock, and every image I try it fails to flash it.. even after I clear cache and clear everything else. All I want is it back to stock and running again. I'll pay like $10 BTC if that's allowed if someone can help me. I also dont know anything about using commands from the PC and pushing it to the tablet.. so..
If you can help, my Skype is: Goldstingz
Thanks
this happened when i rooted, installed freedom, left freedom on, and reformatted, then it ****ed up. so i tried crombi. and idk ive tried a lot.
