[Q] Wifi 3.1 Xoom stuck in Boot Video

Hi, first of all thanks in advance to anyone who will try and solve my problem.
I unlocked my xoom using thi tread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967065
and rooted it using this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078019
after that I successfully opened and checked my phone. It was rooted with super user and everything.
I tried to enable the market for everthing so I used this tread for enabling market with replacing build.prop method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065698
As soon as I restarted the xoom couldnt get past the video introduction.
Now, I have tried getting into recovery and doing factory reset and everything but I cannot seem to get past the video..
I am genuinely scared if I bricked the tablet...
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank You in advance...

Hi Cozzeck,Can you possibly post a link for a guide to flashing back to stock? I don't want to mess it up further by doing something wrong.
And also, do you advice to try and root it again after fixing it?
Thank you, in advance...

I sent you a pm

Like you read up, you need to back to stock and do the procedure to root again.
Look for the stock image on the android development section, install it by clockwork recovery, and after get on stock do the procedure for root again.
If you have question u can PM me.
See ya!

Nexus S stuck after Rooting

Hey there guys i have had my nexus s for 2 days and after listening to my friend i decided to root my phone. I am a complete noob at android phones and after rooting, the nexus s rebooted to a locked screen and I dont know what to do from there. It wont let me go through the recovery either. any kind of help would be great.

Could you describe the way you rooted the phone/point us to the guide you followed?
Or could you describe the "locked screen"?

it is just a black screen with the google logo and a lock symbol that i cant click on.
I followed the steps mentioned in the addictive tips site. xda wont let me post the link to the site. This is the title of the post on the site:

What version of gingerbread are you running, 2.3.4? I think superboot only works with 2.3.3 and below.

Some people in the Modaco thread have had the same problem: http://android.modaco.com/content/g...-colour-revert-superboot-rooting-the-nexus-s/
What you are going to have to do is flash clockworkmod recovery then flash the full 2.3.4 update. Have a look in the Nexus S part of the forum for the links and instructions
If you are still stuck, you may want to start a thread in the Nexus S forums.

so i basically went into recovery mode and did a hard reset but now all that shows when i reboot is the google logo. i believe the rom is deleted. is there a good tutorial to install the stock rom 2.3.4? thanks for the reply

You are going to need fastboot working.
You can find everything you need in the Nexus S forums.

If you don't understand what I mean when I say flash the stock rooted version of the ota then you need to stop and learn alot about your phone before you mess something up.

There is no need to tell me what i need or don't need to do with my phone.
There is no point in useless advices.
Let me be clear:
I want a stock 2.3.6 rooted phone, I am very capable of rooting it myself but because of a weird bug i am incapable of doing that.
what i tried to do is to install a 2.3.6 OTA and re-root, that failed.
so if you are able to provide me with a fix it would be appreciated, if not please provide a rooted version of a STOCK 2.3.6, and not a ROM with million unneeded extra stuff.
if you are unable to help that is ok, but do not presume that because i am newly registered i have no idea of what i am doing.

I still need help ...

Why did it fail?

Thank you so much. Where do I get framaroot? I looked on the Play Store but it is not there. When I get it, will that allow me to put a recovery on it?

see the list of supported devices.
its only for rooting and it doesnt help you with installing recovery.

Is there a way you recommend installing a recovery?I've looked on cyanogen mod but I don't think they support my device. Any ideas?

Wwhich device are you using ???
All devices have a recovery mode . While rooting you are replacing a recovery mode like cwm .

what phone?

I've never had an issue rooting... its gotten pretty safe, as long as you follow the steps closely you shouldn't have any issues or worries about bricking anything.
There are backup options of your rom after you root it. Clockworkmod Rom Manager makes backups and installing new rooms as easy as 3 buttons.

Since the galaxy player 5 us version is older device is there a clockwork mod recovery for it?
