How can I resolve the bootloop problem? - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I put the latest version of CM10 and I got stuck in the boot loop sequence: I see only the intro animation.
1. If I press the power button for 7 seconds, the tablets restarts itself and I'm from where I went: the intro animation
2. If I press the power button for 7 seconds and the up button, the tablets restarts itself and I see the samsung logo and here:
2a) if I keep holding power button and the up button, I get in another loop: the tablet restart and I see the samsung logo and so on.
2b) if I take my finger off power button but I keep pressing the up button, the tablet gets into the intro animation of CM10.
Any suggestions in how could I resolve this problem?

What do you get when you press the power button and the down button?

Same thing as with Up..
Anyway I solved the problem:
So I managed to put in Recovery mode using ADB.
I let the sucker to die (leave it without power), I connect it to my computer and after that " adb reboot recovery ".

No, I made a stupid mistake.
I put on top of CM10 a build of CM9 and the rest is history.

[HELP] STUCK entering nvflash recovery mode

i'm not flash any rom/kernel etc.
i'm only play with power and volume button.
and then my xoom stuck at "entering nvflash recovery mode".
my,question,how exit thaht mode?
i can't adb cause my pc not recognise my xoom.
please,help me to figure out.
thankyou
*PS:-my xoom is m600 [wifi-3g/verizon-usa version]
can you reboot the device? if yes does it stuck on reboot without pressing buttons?
if you cant turn of the device with the power button just press power + vol up at the same time for 3 sec
now it should turn off
this may help you
Here is how I was able to get into different booting modes.
1. Power down
2. Power up and wait for the M sign to show up
3. Press volume down, nvFlash will display, press volume down again, RSD mode will display, press volume down again, fastboot mode will display.
4. Press volume up to select fastboot
5. Go ahead and flash the kernel that you like to restore
can you change the booting mode by pressing vol down?

thanks for your quick response..
yes,i can reboot/powerr off by power+vol UP.
but if only press power button to turn off ,nothing happens.
EDIT:-try this method and no success.
I don't know if I got something wrong up there, but since you didn't flash anything and were just playing around with vol up/down, you should not have to flash anything...
What happens if you just reset your xoom by holding vol up + power for 3 seconds and after that just wait? Imo your xoom should just boot back into android and everything should be fine...
he donĀ“t has to flash something
i am not sure if he wasnt able to turn of the device... and reboot it or something else...
the points for flashing r optional - if he wants to change the kernel or something

Try holding Vol up + PWR for 3 seconds and release, you should see the Motorola logo.
Can you tell us what happened before the xoom went off, or if you have loaded a custom ROM some time ago.

Let the battery go all the way down. Then put it on charge and try to boot-up.
Can you get into fastboot mode? If so, you should be able to reboot into your OS.

help! stock moto g won't boot into recovery

Hi, I'm hoping i'm just being stupid but i can't get my moto go to boot into recovery.
i powered it off, changed sim cards and now it boot loops.
so boot into fastboot menu and choose any option(except barcode and the one that changes codepages or whatever) and it just goes back into boot loop. any bright ideas anyone? not been a good day so far today, my number just got ported over to OVIVO today. but they stopped operating yesterday - the joys... :crying:
cheers!
What did you else do with your phone? Is it stock? Or did you flash anything? Are you pressing volume up to select option? Did you try a factory reset?

nothing!
it's completely stock. i think i installed 1 app (philips hue). was working fine. powered off normally, took the sim out, put new one in - boot loops!
i can't do a factory reset as it when you choose anything out of the fastboot it reboots. and that's using the volume up to select options.
i think i'll just take it back to the shop. but it's a pain in the neck
Yeah 2 options fiddling around yourself or going to the shop.
I would go back to the shop and ask there as it is untouched.
Maybe it has seriously some problems.
If you want to try it yourself i would reccomend you to reflash.

Are you sure you are pressing volume up?
Last days somebody had security case for the phone.
When he pressed the gum layerd buttons he accidently pressd the power button.
Once he took off the case it worked for him.
Maybe restore firmware

Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646415
hopefully this helps restoring your phone back to factory settings
I think this will help
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL DOWN KEY for 2-3 seconds then POWER key then release.
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to select
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, try a force reboot by pressing the Power key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
Try to perform a wipe data. In my case it works.

Did factory reset now bricked

So I did a factory reset, the tab rebooted to wipe the device, went to nvidia logo then screen went black, shuts off automatically and I can turn back on just for it to get right past the logo and shut off again, I've tried volume up with power and volume down and same thing happens. Sometimes the power won't even turn it back on for 5-10 minutes. Any suggestions?

Dumb question, but are you sure the battery is charged? I would leave it plugged in for awhile and try again. Then if it still is not booting try to enter download mode while connected to PC. Mine did something similar to this once when I did a factory reset as well. It only recovered after connecting USB to my PC.
I'm guessing you have custom recovery installed?
1. Download the factory image from NVIDIA website (specific to your device version),
2. Go into fastboot by pressing volume down and give a slight nudge to the power button (don't press until the logo comes up, just a quick nudge will do)
3. Unlock your bootloader using the instruction which can be found on this forum (if you have, skip this step) sorry I'm on mobile phone, so a bit hard to do a search for the link with small screen.
4. Unzip the recovery image zip file.
4. While still in fastboot, flash the recovery images using flash-all.bat contained in the unzipped folder.
You will lose your custom recovery and your root, but since you were gonna wipe your device anyway.. let me know if you're stuck somewhere.
I think i might have found fix....
Shut down the device with long press (8sec) Power button
Press and hold Vol down key
Press and release Power key
Device enters fastboot mode
Select Recovery mode option (using Vol up/down for navigation and power key to select)
Device enters recovery mode (after showing NVIDIA boot logo) with Android Robot screen.
Press and release Vol UP + Power button simultaneously
Then select wipe data/factory reset with Vol up/down key to navigate and power key to select
try this but be PATIENT AND wait for it to say erasing then i think ill be normal once its done also just wait with it on the "blank screen" we could have just got ahed of are selves and whent to conclusions and thought it was bricked

Phone stuck in bootloop, can't boot into fastboot or recovery, Please help

After trying to flash a TBO calendar/calculator inverted app I rebooted from recovery only to now be stuck in a bootloop. The only thing the phone will do is begin to reboot itself if I press all three buttons to "hard restart". (power+vol up+vol dwn). Tried using adb/fastboot to reboot into recovery or bootloader but I don't think that the phone is far enough into the boot process to be recognized by adb/fastboot because typing adb reboot-bootloader just returns "waiting on devices". I have also tried to use power+ vol dwn combo to reboot to bootloader. I have noticed that this only works for stock and other certain ROM's. It's a hit and miss as to why this occurs.
So right now I am stuck in a perpetual bootloop with no way to get to recovery or bootloader. I don't know of any other way of getting into recovery to restore a nanroid. Any one have a good suggestion? Please!
The combination of power + volume up (for like 10 or so seconds) will force a reboot. As SOON as it reboots you just need to hold volume down to get into bootloader.

I'm having the same exact problem, I figured out the volume up + power, turns the phone back on in a hardboot. But, exactly how long do you need to hold the volume down button for once it's rebooting?? I just got a replacement phone on 9/24, my previous phone had no problem with this & had the option of fast boot in the settings. Just rebooting my phone takes FOREVER to turn on (or so it seems in comparison). Any idea how or why this is now? Is it due to an update, can I uninstall the update to go back to a fast start setting?? Thanks!!

When you hold the volume down button are you also holding the power button? You need to use volume up + power to restart. Then, when it restarts, immediately hold volume down without letting up on the power button. Needs to be volume down + power to boot into hboot. As for now long do you hold it, until it boots to hboot.
Thanks for the info...
Thanks for more details I'm pretty sure I did let up on the power button thinking it was keeping it from loading. I'll try this out now!!!

Samsung Galaxy a40 stuck on "powered by android" screen

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy A40 and yesterday I tried to flash LineageOS (I already have experience flashing gsi's), but when i rebooted the system, it just stuck on the "Powered by Android" screen.
It's not even rebooting, it just stays on that screen until the battery dies. So I've tried to let the battery drain and then booting into download mode after charging it a bit by pressing Vol Up + Vol Down and then plugging it into pc, but for some reason it just won't boot into download mode. What can I do now without having to risk booting into that screen and having to wait another full day again?
Hi,
You probably have to flash the latest firmware for your device.
If the phone freeze on the powered by android screen you can press and hold volume down + power and the phone will force reboot.
To reach download mode you can try this :
Turn off the device
Press and hold Volume UP key + Power Key for a while
Release all key when Samsung logo appears then you will see Android System Recovery
Select Reboot to Bootloader
Use Power key to Confirm

The easiest step is the keys but look like it doesnt work for you.
You should try to boot with different key combination get past the bootscreen, otherwise i suggest you to got to a repair center if you can't
