Last week I rooted a friends phone and flashed ginger clone on it and the red cwm. Everything worked fine at the time.
Today the screen kept freezing and the screen going black. I had to reboot the phone at least 10 times just to get into the OS and boot into recovery.
Once I got into recovery I wiped data, cache and dalvik. Then restored the factory backup (which I verified worked after making it last week) now the phone can't get passed the initial sidekick boot screen. It sits at the screen and vibrates every few seconds.
Is there any luck for this thing?

Disregard.. after doing a little reading on the forum I was able to get the phone into download mode and i'm downloading the stock odin files now.

I recently installed this ROM and I thought it was working fine. I did a restart of the device and now I seem stuck at a android screen that it doesn't see to be going pass. The android word just display as a light goes across the screen and then it seems to cycle again.
I can't seem to boot into recovery either to put restore the back up I made, because when I get to the white fast boot screen the selection won't scroll down to recovery when I hit the down volume button. It just stays there and then tries to install a patch for a radio I believe.
Any thoughts on why this is stuck at the android word screen or how I can get back to my back up and restore that. Thanks

Try removing your sd card and then vol down and power. Then once you're past fastboot white page pop it back in in time for recovery, and do your thing. Try clearing caches first. If not then restore a backup.

Yup I think I seen that in another forum to a similar type problem, I removed the SD card and was able to get back into clockwork recovery. I wipes all data/settings, cache partition and then loaded the rom again.
First thing I did was do a reboot so. So far it didn't get stuck and booted back up. Will do another reboot later tonight to see if it holds. Thanks for the tip
I'd reccomenf going to the dhd forum and getting the latest version (new one coming out soon)

Use this to put cwm and then flash the rom you like.
If phone still boots into recovery you may have a stuck vol- button.

i cant get into recoveery now im stuck in it relaoding as i tried to flash the recovery again and its stuck
try and flash again, if it doesn't stick, then try again. If it gives you an error report the error. Try what mansa_noob posted, it usually works for everyone, it fixes everything (partition and issues) and then flashes the recovery for you.
So, I successfully rooted my GX2 (p999), and I successfully installed Clockworkmod Recovery, and followed the steps to install EaglesBlood. Everything went ok until I actually tried to turn on my phone.
It WILL turn on, and it will start to boot up Eaglesblood, but then the screen goes black for about 3 seconds, then the Eaglesblood logo shows for about 5 seconds, then it blacks out for 3 seconds, then shows the logo for 5 seconds, etc etc etc, for as long as there's battery to do so.
I tried going into the boot recovery to reinstall, but I think the Eaglesblood installation removed Clockworkmod recovery? It will show the recovery loading bar, then reboot the phone (instead of showing the recovery menu).
Is there a way that I can connect my phone to my PC without being able to boot up? Have I bricked my phone?
I know other phones have a downloading mode. Does the GX2 have that, and if so is there a fix with it?
The G2x is pretty much unbrickable to an extent... When you rooted the phone did you use a one click method or nv flashed cwm?

I have the nexus s 4g flashed to boost mobile. it has ran great for over a year now. i have flashed many roms and kernals to it and it has worked like a charm with only the occational hickup. but a few weeks ago when i would power it down and change may battery it would start to get stuck on the google screen. i could pull the battery a few times and it would eventually take off and work fine for a few day and then do it again. this last time it done it i cant get it to go past the google screen for nothing. i can get into the fast boot mode and also into clockworkmod touch recovery but when i go into flash zip from sd it say error loading sd, when i plug it into my computer it conects when in fastboot but i cannot access my sd memory at all. i tried the pdanet but it wont work due to no access to the sd. i downloaded the program wugs nexus tool kit and tried to flash stock and unroot with option bootloop / soft-brick in my boot loader. the program seems like it is working, it takes control of my phone restarts bootloader a few times then says restarting your now stock phone, but my phone just sits in bootloader. i have tried to manually reboot system and it just goes to the google screen and stops. when i power on my phone the google logo comes up, flashes away for a split second then pops back up with the leds at the bottom of my phone on this time but thats all i can get. please help i dont know what to try next. let me know if any of you have had this problem before and what you did to get it fixed. Please help i miss my Nexus...
** UPDATE *** Well i havnt really given up on my Nexus but i gave in and bought a new Galaxy S II so i could have a working smart phone again. Ill still be working on the Nexus in my spare time so ill update if i have any luck.

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.
