Hi guys,
So i went to Romkitchen.org, and cooked a rom. now this is my first rom so i have never flashed one before. Now whats happening is that when i boot up my phone, everything seems fine. although there is a pixelated screen before the splash pops up. Now thats not the problem, the problem is that i cant do anything on my phone. whenever my phone is turned on, i can use it for like 5-6 seconds, and then the splash screen pops up again. And this keeps looping over and over again. i tried using that small window of time to factory reset, since it didnt reset when i flashed the rom for some reason. except when i try to reset it, the phone reboots. except it keeps on the AT&T screen. Same thing happens when i try to flash to rom with ROMmanager. Please help! im 13 so i cant afford a new phone, since i got this one with a contract. Oh by the way, My phone is the Samsung Captivate.

Hey xda.
Recently I flashed my GS with this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449156&page=), but just in a older version(pre-alpha) and after probably a month of use I began to experienced at lot og bugs and suddenly crashes in apps and programs. I decided to do a reboot,battery pull or wipe cache to see if that clould do it, but nothing help. On the contrary, my phone would not start. The Galaxy S logo showed u, but when the miui xiaomi.com logo showed it bootlooped. Several reboots did not work, so i decided to mount usb from recovery and download the newest version of the rom and then try to flash. I did not wipe, but i worked just fine and i thought i had my phone back, but after little over a day of use the screen began to flicker and blink, and no programs nor apps worked, just crashed. I flashed again again but nothing worked, and now i'm stuck with the same problem as before. bootloop..
So have anyone experienced the same or does anyone have a solution for this problem?
Hello fellow XDA members! I am a Noob.
So I believe I have a Bricked Galaxy Note 10.1. Model GT-N8013
I Rooted Stock ROM, and flashed Collective Edition 5 Dark Side.
So heres what happened, everything seemed fine, until I made a mistake, I was Pimping my ROM with the PimpMyRom app. Every change seemed fine and my note worked, but when i saw the double boot screen slide in the app, i did what it said, i have the imf support or something like that. Then after i had the ''support'' needed, i clicked install button on the double boot slide, it seemed to do something and requested nothing, so i went ahead chose a second clip, and clicked set as second boot screen. It said it wont take effect until the 3rd boot, so i rebooted 3x, but at the third time, it was stuck at the boot screen with the galaxy note 10.1 logo ! It did not start or did anything, over time it would turn off and automatically reboot, but it would get stuck again !.
To attempt to fix it, I Booted into recovery (CWM) and did everything i could. I wiped nearly all cache, factory reseted, then out of fear, i flashed the stock firmware ROM from Sammobile website, with ODIN, and to my knowledge, it got worse!! It booted, seemed to do something then in the logo screen it got stuck once again!! Stock recovery says unable to mount /efs, i don't believe EFS is completely corrupted, I left it stuck for awhile and it shut down in like an hour. Help, what can i do to fix this!?!?!?!
Device cannot boot up.
I could boot into recovery and download mode only.
I thought that I too had bricked my 8013 the past weekend. Trying to do something that I shouldn't. It took me a bit of work and a lot of worry (my wife gave me my 8013 for Xmas and if I had to tell her that it was now a doorstop, she would have killed me). I used this method to get back to stock and then was able to work my way back to the ROM I use. I disremember in which order I Odin'd things, but in the end was able to un-brick. All I can say is give it a shot.

i did what u said...but all i got is i able to get through the logo but without seeing anything only able to hear the sound. any other tip? i got the same problem as above.
I have a rooted and bootloader-unlocked Inspire 4G. A few months ago, I had been using the MoKee 4.2.2 ROM for some time, and one day, my phone's screen simply froze. I thought I shouldn't be worried about it, so I pulled the battery off, slapped it back in and tried turning on the phone again. It never got past the MoKee loading screen. I tried charging it, leaving it to boot for hours but nothing.
Next, I tried rebooting into CWMrecovery to try different stable backups I had from some time before that happened. The backups restored successfully, but again, the phone stayed stuck in the loading screen. I tried the same with 4EXT Touch Recovery and wiping all the data before the backup, but still nothing worked.
Since I was too busy at the time to install a new ROM and flash a new boot image, I decided to put the phone away and use my backup Galaxy Ace. Today, a few months after that happened, I tried to boot the phone into bootloader and I can't even achieve that. Holding the volume down rocket and power buttons, the phone still boots normally and stays stuck on the loading screen.
What weirds me out the most is that this was all random--I did not drop the phone or did things to it that could break it.
I feel if I could get into recovery I'd be able to do something else about it.
Any ideas?
Me too
Weird, mine just did the same thing today. Crashed, had to pull battery, now stuck at Mokee. Tried clearing DC, cache, factory reset. No luck.
I am having problems with booting up my phone. This all started when i dropped my phone, the screen seems to be looking good, it is rooted with CyanModgen 10. So when i try to boot my phone it will only show me the HTC logo white screen for a few minutes and would automatically get off, i tried to do it a lot of times but the same thing would be showing up again. I have reset all of my data and then worked on it again but the same thing would be keep repeating again and again. Please if anybody would provide me some piece of advice i'll be glad to have it from you!! because that is the only phone i want to use!!!
Are you able to boot into bootloader or recovery?
Hello Everyone,
I have been trying to help my friend with his soft-bricked G3. He wasn't rooted and had never even played with flashing anything, it just stopped booting one day and would display the "LG Life's Good" boot screen for a few seconds before going black and then just repeating this endlessly. I was able to get into recovery and download mode so I used the tot method to flash back to stock after a hard reset just produced the same results.
When I flashed the stock firmware, everything appeared to work fine, it went through the MiniOS bootup and everything, said success, gave me the hard reset status screen so when it finished I pulled the battery as instructed and rebooted but the phone still has the same issue. I have tried to run factory reset through recovery now that I flashed the new firmware and it still does the same thing, just hangs at the boot screen for a few seconds before going black and then trying again, endlessly.
Has anyone encountered this before? Is it bricked?
Thanks.

Pretty common prob plug it in to the wall charge see if it boots sometimes it still wont but most of the time it will the battery quality on the g3 is crap they last at most a year with a few exceptions i would first order a battery.
