How to Ask Questions!
If your messing with your phone, eventually you will have a problem you cant solve on your own. We have all been there, its just part of modding your phone. but if you give some time and a little patience, most of the time its easy to get fixed.
FIRST: SEARCH!!!This means try searching a thread if its too long, or searching the entire G2X Section of the forum. (and we can tell if you really searched or if you just say you did to get rid of the people yelling at you) If you see nothing that relates to you, or you have tried all of that, then you can make a post, BUT FIRST...
Stuff to Try Before Posting:So... your having a problem with your phone... well there are a few things you can do to help fix most issues:
Go into CWM and clear Cache
try this first, it really does help solve most issues from within a rom
Make a Nandroid Backup and clear data
just do this as a test, make a backup and clear data. check to see if the problem still exists, if it fixes it then its something you installed/did to the rom that caused the problem.
if not then...
Try flashing a new ROM
even if you don't like it, even if you can never go back to gingerbread after ICS just try it to see if it fixes your problem. If it does then you can decide if ICS is worth the issue your having.
Clear App data/Reinstall App
If you having an issue related to a specific app, try going into settings and clearing that app's cache and data. if the issue still exists try uninstalling it then reinstalling it after a reboot.
If none of these things helped you, then its time to make a post.
Things to Include in your post:If your having an issue, many of us are willing to help to get it resolved, but first, you need to give us some useful information.
A good checklist to include in your post is the following:
Current Rom
Current kernel
If you have done ANY undervolting or overclocking.
If you had this problem before (either on other ROM's or previously on your current ROM)
If you wiped Cache
If you wiped Data
If you tried installing another ROM
Any other things you already tried (BE SPECIFIC!)
the more you include in the first post the better, too much information is MUCH better than not enough.
If you think the issue is related to a specific ROM, try posting in that ROM's thread in the development section, but please don't spend too much time there. If nobody can find a simple fix, move your discussion to a new thread in the Q and A section, don't clog up the Developer's thread with a single issue.
Once again, the more information you give us the better, and if you don't post the above, someone will most likely ask you those questions, or tell you to do those things first (or they just might ignore the question).
If you see any typos, or think of anything i could add or improve on please let me know.

I have the same problem and I can't find any way to fix it I am going to post a new thread about the problem.
Hi all...
I was watching, reading and was excited about cm 14.1 for my LG g2 which was running on lollypop.
What a mess I created for myself. Will explain step by step. I I would be thankful if anyone can teach me get out with it and back to LG rom lollypop.
1. I rooted my phone with one click tool.
2. Then I installed Twrp through play store app.
3. Download cm 14.1 for lg g2. The as well as open gaps.
4. Next thing I did rebooted to twrp recovery and clean it after taking back up. But was not able to flash cm 14.1. Also loaded gapps7. 1.
5. After so many trials nothing happened I even updated twrp to 2.8
6. Then I found twrp 3.0 and tried to flash it.
7. Suddenly my phone came to a stage Fastboot.
8. My computer stopped detecting it.
9. Then I re plugged it into the USB of my computer.
10. I found the partitions are there. But no system is there.
11. Even I don't know to sideload it.
12. Lg flash tool is not able to flash it.
I request if someone know the way to flash it with lg roam. I L be thankful.
Can anyone email me steps to do to get out of it.
My email is [email protected]
Thanks

My phone was working perfectly with an older version of the evil hero rom so 2 days ago I decided to update to the newest version which is v2xx or w/e and ever since then I have not been able to either go past the green mytouch boot up screen or If it does boot I cant login into my google account if I skip that step I can browse the web fine over 3g and wifi but cant login into the account...I have tried many different memory cards I have unrooted and re-rooted my phone like a million times now...if someone can just tell me whats going on...I flashed the engineering spl too .2005...I would post in general but it seems as if that section does not get as many hits as does the android development.
First of all.
If you were having several issues PRIOR to trying that laundry list of steps to go about solving the problem...YOU CONTINUED TO GET IN OVER YOUR HEAD! That's admirable that you made an (unsuccessful) attempt to go about fixing said issue on your own; but not worth it.
You were stuck on the SPLASH SCREEN - not locked in bootloop. Typically, if you didn't WIPE before an upgrade, that splash screen should remain for roughly 5-10 minutes depending on the range of changes made in the upgraded version of the ROM. Also, if you follow the developers thread on ROM features, you might want to re-read or properly describe exactly what you did, saw and tried to do ---> IN THAT THREAD!
My suggestion: Assuming that you backed up your ORIGINAL NANDROID from the stock "Cupcake" version of the OS...restore that backup, then start all over from the basics.

Yo I did all of that im using the nandroid backup right now and I said I unrooted my phone and started from scratch and am still having the same issue and I always wipe before a new flash...its just frustrating that i cant login into the google account and the rom works fine other than that
also i never said that I bricked the phone or something the recovery is working and all...I have done all the basics I have the partitions and what not...the only reason Im posting here is to see if anyone know if certain mytouch's made after a day are having problems with root I saw it in some thread some where but wasnt able to find it I think it was mytouch's made after July 26th?
First thing...greetings! Yes, I am a n00b (loved the video, though) and have searched for quite a while to hopefully resolve the issue I am currently burdened with. A thousand pardons if there is already another thread like mine, but I just couldn't find anyone with the same issues I am having.
First off, I started with rooting my phone. No problems.
Got my hands on ClockworkMod's ROM Manager. Downloaded Cyanogenmod 9 to my PC, and any other necessary programs to get this flashing underway. Opened up ROM Manager and proceeded to boot in recovery. This is where I think the problem originated. I wiped all that I needed (or so I think). It's entirely possible that I may have missed something. Not sure. After wiping it clean, I then went on to install the zip of cyanogenmod. All went well. Then the reboot. It starts up and gets to the loading screen with the really cool animation. 5 minutes. 10 minutes. It's constantly loading. I head on to google and search some possible culprits and solutions. There were suggestions to go back into recovery mode, but the thing is, when I try to get to that menu, it doesn't seem to pop up and goes right back to attempting to boot.
So, all things said...is there any possible solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. And again, if there were any threads with my specific issue, many many apologies!
Thanks again!
i have a samsung captivate i897.
i bought it sim free and unlocked from the states but i'm in the UK.
i recieved it already rooted running cyanogen mod and miui and have had it for 8 months. its worked perfectly the whole time.
until the past month i'd say its been radomly forcing closs on nearly everything.
i havent installed any new software or roms or anything or even dl any new apps so i cant figure out what would be causing the problem.
i tried checking for updateds on the muiu and it runs android 2.3.7
i'm not a tech person at all so i spoke to one of the tech guys at my local phone shop and he said i should try a factory reset.
so i guess i'm asking a few questions here:
1) does anyone have any idea what might be up with my phone?
2) can someone elplain to me the easiest/safest way to fix it?
please bear it mind i am a total noob at this tech stuff. i'll try to understand and cooperate as much as i can with those so kind to help me, but i'd really appreciate if people would help/point me in the right direction instead of giving me a short blunt answer which assumes i know all this tech stuff then locking my thread.
If it's already rooted & running a custom ROM, then you probably already have a custom recovery installed (probably clockworkmod). 1st thing would be to boot into recovery & do a backup. Then, you can try flashing any ROMs you want / factory reset / whatever, and restore your backup if you don't like the results.

how do i know if i have clockwork mod installed (i've never seen it before, but then again if its on the boot menu where i've not been before)
for booting into recovery i just long press the power button (at least it works like this on my phone) > reboot > recovery > ok
then what should happen after i press "ok" ?
also just to state (if it helps) the options i get for rebooting are: normal, hot boot, bootloader & recovery.
i dont really feel confident to be flashing roms (mainly because i dont really know how/which are stable etc) on the other hand i do need to fix it. guess i'd like to try the factory reset first though..... under the assumption its slightly easier.
i thought factory reset would restore the phone back to stock settings? but the guy in the phone shop said it wouldnt? (not sure how reliable he is ;] )
found this thread here which seems kinda similar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264177&page=3
have tried uninstalling some apps to see if it helps.
the thing is with the problem is seems to occur randomly. the phone will work like perfect again for a few days then boom starts forcing close yet again.
only time will tell.
Ok first, I did a lot of research into the topic and spent more than a few months in thinking it over and seeing if I wanted to attempt this. In a day long research fest, I finally decided to just try rooting and installing my daily-driver Nexus 7 2013 Wi-Fi with CyanogenMod. I chose a method that wasn't too daunting, using the Nexus Root Tools to push the CM rom and finally into working... I used RootJunkie on YouTube, "How to Flash a rom with the Nexus Root Tool Kit plus make a Backup with one click" as a refrence, watchign and rewatching the video and all he referenced over and over.
I loaded the zips into the "Flash Zips" section (It loaded the GApps zip in first and then the CM image). It seemed to install without a hitch except the GApps weren't there. Figuring that it installed the GApps first and then wiped them, I redid the flash with the CM first and the GApps second. Now I'm stuck in the Cyanogenmod loading screen. Problem is, since it's hit the point where it installed everything and hasn't let me into the device, I haven't been able to enable USB debugging. Now the computer isn't able to recognize the device at all and I cannot push just the CM image to fix it nor can I restore factory since the computer doesn't recognize it.
I've attempted to boot into recovery mode, which just results in the android laying on its back with a red ! in a triangle over it. I'm sorry if this makes no sense but I'm slightly panicked because I can't afford to have this thing professionally fixed nor replace it at the moment and I use this tablet daily. Is there something I'm missing? I'm going to lay down for now and try to calm myself, letting the thing sit at the loading screen, hoping that it'll let me in after a while. What options do I have, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place, the wrong crowd... I've just browsed quietly and used XDA as my source for information for everything from rootig my first device to this and it seems I've overstepped my abilities in this.
Problem solved
I stepped away from my computer and tablet for an hour or two to calm down from a panic I was in and found that it let me into the bootloader finally where I flashed the stock image and then restarted the process.
I discovered my problem in trying to use the 'stock' level of GApps from opengapps when the Cyanogenmod wiki pointed directly for the 'nano' version. Sorting out a silly wizard crash later and my tablet is happy, healthy and working much better than the stock at the moment aside some setup I need to do.

Hello!
I have the following problem and after countless searches over many forums I ended up finding no answer:
About 4-5 months ago my P5100 started to restart itself after 1 or 2 minutes of functioning properly (restarts even faster if i try to connect over Wi-Fi or install an app). I thought that if I leave it for a while everything will be ok, it wasn't the case so I started trying to fix it. Before I go on I mention that my P5100 was rooted , running CWM version 5.5 and CM10(10.1.3), i haven't messed with the rom, recovery, firmware etc. for more that one year and a half so it started all of a sudden. I tried everything starting from simply updating the CM version to ADB commands and finally flashing back to the stock firmware with Odin. The wipe data/factory reset didn't work neither in recovery nor commands, I even tried to delete everything via Internal Storage in my pc through USB. Every time it reverts itself to the point it was left before although everything seemed to work just fine no errors or so. It doesen't remember after reboot any setting I made or any app that i installed(if I manage to install one) it is like i didn't do anything at all to it. :crying:
Many thanks for taking your time to read my thread and maybe help me:laugh:
