[Q] Optimus V (Update ZM9) Freezing at boot w/ any rom - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I attempt to boot up the phone with a custom rom on it, the first boot seems normal and all, but then it will suddenly freeze and not do anything. I have seen threads with this issue but with no answers, and I was hoping I could get some help here. Sorry if I'm lacking details, I'm not super Android savvy. Thanks.

Do you deleted all user data (Factory reset)?
If no, do that! If the problem appears again, restore your NANDROID backup (You did a backup, didn't you?)
And if the problem isn't gone reflash your firmware using KDZ Updater (Your LG will be unrooted)

(Sorry for the late reply)
I've already recovered my phone and apps. When I have the defaut Froyo (rooted) on my phone, it boots fine, but whenever I try to load a custom rom, the first boot-up lasts forever.

Lol I think you over clocked it on the minimum ... try the minimum at 800m ... or if anything flash a new rom.. its probably the rom itself
Sent From In between Your Moms Boobies
Try another (stable) rom? (no development rom)
Wipe everything.
And yes, probably its underclocked/overclocked too high.
I would like to flash a rom but once I turn it on it keeps force closing everything and I am unable to do anything on the phone, It boots into recovery mode just fine though

Good news, you flash your ROM from recovery. Download the package, boot into recovery. Mount the SD card and push or push using adb push. Flash the zip from CWM.
my friend purchased the phone yesterday and he is on the latest Official version (2.3.6) and the phone keeps rebooting!!!
is this normal?? there must a problem!

Wipe data/factory reset from recovery if it's a used phone.
If he just bought it return it... thats easy
If he rooted it and changed the rom -- put it back to stock or put a new rom on it
I personally found that most of my restarts were due to me trying to pull the stock launcher into an unfamiliar rom. Make sure (if you are using Titanium backup) to only load apps not system *unless you are trying to go back to the same rom*
good luck
First check if he overclocked too much or underclocked too much. Put it to normal.
Alternatively you can just flash another rom. Before flashing remember to wipe everything
Goodluck!

[Q] Bricked galaxy I747, Desperately Need Help

Hi All,
I have an I747M Galaxy S3, and decided to root it and have some fun. Things lead to things, and its 2am and I'm changing some settings around. Reboot and everything broke. Touchwiz Home crashed, System UI crashed, nothing worked. I pulled the battery, and rebooted into recovery. It wasn't until I remembered that I hadn't made a backup, that I realized I'm stupid. In my panic, I wiped the phone and reset to factory defaults, but I'm sure I don't need to tell you that didn't work. It still boots into download, and CWM, and I can get it to be recognized in ODIN. However, I can't access the internal phone memory at all, (or at least not in any way I know of).
My question is there any way to flash a custom rom onto my S3 given the current circumstances? I apologize if this question has been repeated in any way. I tried to find anything close to my situation on the forums, and didn't have much luck.

[Q] Help with recovery after failed ROM installation

So after 6 months of perfectly working NON rooted phone, I decided to root my Verizon Galaxy S3. I previously owned a Moto Droid 2 and rooted and had no problems ever. Unfortunately, within hours of a successful root, I made the mistake of downloading ROM manager (since it worked fine on my Droid 2) and tried installing the first listed AOKP custom ROM. It rebooted and did everything that was expected, until it just hung on the boot up screen for over an hour. I then decided to (for better or worse) pull the battery and just boot into recovery. Unfortunately, this brought me to a message from Verizon saying "you are doing bad things, bring your phone to Verizon" (more or less anyway). So I fixed that much by getting the factory image/reboot and installing via Odin. My problem now is it constantly keeps failing/closing android process every minute or so. I can't navigate it long enough to do anything before it fails again and takes me back to lock screen followed by home screen. When I boot to recovery, it says I have no files to restore either, but I KNOWWW for a fact I did a backup through CWM before I did ANYTHING involving any custom ROMs. PLEASE help me! Ask any and all related questions that will help you and I'll do my best to answer them.
Can you check your file system and see if your CWM folder has a backup? It should be Sdcard/CWM or extsdcard/CWM. If not, do you mind flashing another rom or that same rom?

2 questions: Which factory image did you use to restore (link to thread)? Did you change the default backup location in CWM (ie, did you backup to the external sd or the internal - internal is default)?
There is a file in both extsdcard and sdcard with clock work mod back up. I did manage to factory reset and re root, so phone is functional again, just with none of my apps or settings. I have a feeling I'm going to need to un root in order to re receive my JB update too?

Didn't unlock bootloader?
I don't know for sure. I unzipped SU plus bootloader file exactly as specified in forums/video. Had no problems until I tried installing that ROM through ROM manager. And forgive me for trying that. I hadn't rooted in over a year. But main problem now is just that I want to recover how my phone was ie settings and set up if possible.

How big are those 2 folders?
One is 4.82 gb...so I'd think there has to be a file in there.

That sounds about the right size for a backup. When you go into CWM and do the restore (or restore from external - which ever has that folder, you didn't say) it doesn't show a backup?
What version of CWM are you running?
It's version CWM6023touchvzw.tar.md5. And it's on the external. But no matter which option of restore I choose in the recovery boot, it says file not found.

Maybe after all that flashing and Odin-ing your recovery install got wanked, somehow.
Let's try this: it will re-install the latest CWM, clean and then let's see if it'll recognize your backups.
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/
download the touch image for the d2vzw (or just click here)
put that in the root of your internal sd card.
Open up terminal emulator on your phone and type the following:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-d2vzw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot recovery
(partition 18 is your recovery partition)
That'll push the known good CWM to your recovery partition and boot you into it. It won't mess with any sort of data anywhere else on the phone.
Alright, thanks. I'll give this a try after I get back home from work.

[Q] Need Help after rooting implosion

UPDATE: 07-04-14 5:25pm EST:
I was able to get all my data off using a mac. I re-flashed Purity ROM after doing a full wipe. I have now re-installed all most of my apps and have begun normal use. For now this is resolved hopefully I have no further issues. Thanks for the response @Kreateablaze Much appreciated.
So here is a brief history about what I did and what I am experiencing. I am pretty much a newb here so please be gentle and excuse my ignorance.
Just in case you don't want to read my book below:
TLDR: rooted phone, Installed TWRP, installed Purity Rom, system failed hardcore, cant get data off my phone because explorer crashes. I just want to get my data off so I can re-install a ROM or just flash back to stock and re-lock the bootloader.....
-Unlocked bootloader, rooted, and installed TWRP using "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit"
(just want to give props to any one involved in that tool, it is an amazing tool and worked flawlessly!)
-After running the toolkit, I was successfully rooted and running TWRP.
-I ran a back up using TWRP. Is that what is referred to as a "Nandroid" back up?
-After running this back up I installed "Purity ROM"
-For the first 24 hours everything was fine.
-I had to reboot my N5 due to an app that was acting up and a reboot usually cleared up the issue if force stopping didn't. (an app I used before rooting and I knew how to fix the issue I was having, I don't think this is related to my issue.)
-After rebooting the phone, I was faced with a pop up stating something along the lines of android UI has stopped working. I clicked okay, unlocked the phone it flashed black with my home screen icons and everything went back to normal. I rebooted the phone again just to make sure that was a one time fluke. This time The phone was in an endless crash cycle. Every process I could think of was crashing non stop the phone was unusable. I did some research and found something that said to go into TWRP and run a permissions repair.
-After running permissions repair my phone booted back up and was working relatively okay.
-After the repair rebooting my N5 results in that same UI crash I got the first time. BUT the phone is usable, and that process never crashes again unless I reboot.
-After running that permissions repair some of my apps disappeared. Trying to re-install them results in a -24 error. I got a few of them to re-install by clearing related data in data/data folder. A few of my apps refuse to re-install even though there is no trace of the data in the data/data folder.
-Another issue I am having after all of this is that I can NOT pull any data off of the phone. I plug it in, Windows recognizes the phone but it takes about 10-15 minutes to load the folder structure. I am then unable to copy any of the data off of the phone. Explorer crashes and I cant get the data off. UPDATE: I was able to get the data of the phone by using a friends Mac. I will post an update with some more info.
-I need to get my data off the phone before I can continue but am unable to. Any help would here would be greatly appreciated.
-Also if any one knows a more stable ROM with a similar feature set to Purity that is fast, has good battery life and isn't packed to the gills with features tht may one day cause more issues that they are worth. Please let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys may be able to offer me.
Well I'm not too sure what your issue could be, but purity is one of the most stable roms on here... Have you looked in the purity thread for posts saying the same thing happened? I highly doubt it is the rom.

I would definitely agree that something went wrong rather than the ROM being unstable..... Any idea about how to get my data off the phone. at this point that is my main concern so I can re-flash purity....

I'm not too sure, I never had to get the data off my phone using a computer, always just used titanium backup. Maybe try reflashing purity, just wipe cache not any data.

Thanks for your response. I was able to get my data off using a friends Mac... I am going to reflash Purity and see how things go. If they dont go well I may go back to stock. I never seem to have good luck with these things...

[Q] Phone gets stuck at every boot up please help! :(

Hi, All
I've been flashing for some time now. but i got a blaze 4g from a friend which was working perfectly till i tried to flash a custom ROM. i got a status 7 error, and the phone hasn't been alright since then. i flash via twrp, but it gets stuck at every boot up (i.e. gets stuck after bootanimation, and "preparing SD card). I restored the backup of the stock rom (gb). but it just also gets stuck at after booting up, the same way! audio not working too. i dont know what i'm doing wrong. ever since, every ROM i flash, does same. please help. i've tried everything i know: odin to stock, flash kernels, and all. any help would be highly appreciated. cm10 was responding well, but anything to do with audio just makes the phone freeze and reboot. i cant make calls, nor receive any' but network signal is there. please help
Have you factory reset after each flash?
from the depths of Sawny TL
yes, i have. even formatted system and all... but still persists.
i just wish @k0nane gets to help me out.
Usually a status 7 means recovery is incorrect for the rom you're flashing. Which twrp are you using?
