CM10 Infinite Boot Animation - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys I am running into a problem after I flash CM10 to my GSIII, It flashes fine (rooted, unlocked bootloader, using CWM) up until I try to boot at which it gets stuck on the boot animation where it just runs for what i assume to be forever, I gave up after 10 min the 3 times I tried. Is anyone else having this problem or have any idea how to fix it.
Thanks in advance

I would try two things, first be sure you cleared everything (dalvik cache, factory reset, clear cache) in CWM, and if you're still having problems try the "fix permissions" option in CWM.

happened to me earlier, I wiped cache, dalvik, factory reset, and flashed again, and it worked

Derp, it was the factory reset, i had always been clearing the catches so i dont know why it didnt occur to me to do the reset, but thanks a bunch guys

[Q] Stuck on boot animation..Please Help!!

I have this in development but though it shoudl be here.
Please help
I had issues loading AOKP| Build 4
These issues were caused I think by me. Before reloading I wiped Cache and Dalvic Cache, I then did a Format/Factory reset. While on this it stayed on formatting cache for about 20 mins. Since it locked up on formatting cache I held the power and vol down to get back in to CWM. I tried to install zip from ext sd Build-4. When it started it gave me a 4-5 lines saying E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log and others relating to that. I proceeded anyway with loading build-4, sometime through the installation it rebooted itself. After that the unicorn would come up for a few secs then reboot, then keep doing it in a boot loop. I again went in to CWM and tried again with the cache, dalvic and factory reset, same thing happened where it got stuck at cache but it restarted by itself this time. I then downloaded the stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1722745. After loading stock from Odin I was able to get ride of the cache errors and cache lock up problems.
The issue now is reguardless of Build-4 or stock it is stuck at either the unicorn or the samsung logo. I have also tried CM10, so stuck at boot now on stock, CM10 and AOKP-Build-4 Any help would be GREAT. Thanks
Do a factory reset in the stock recovery.
You are my hero!!! Several days of doing all kinds of things and that was the one I would have never thought about. Yup and going. No problems now.

advance data restore

Everytime i try to rrstore data after flashing a new rom or after a new nightly i always get hung up on the boot logo. I just went from baked to the new synergy 125 wiped data factory reset wiped cache and dalvik flashed rom rpm and modem and rebooted. All was fine as far as installing the rom. Went back to recovery wiped cache and dalvik again advance rrstore data and get hung. What am i doing wrong? Really annoying to have to redo everything everytime....and im a crack flasher

You can't just restore the data that's the same thing as not factory resetting because all you're really doing is wrong the data and then putting it right back on.
You need to use something like titanium backup

[Q] [P6210]Boot Looping and Corrupt Data Partition

Been running CM10 and CWM 6.0.1.9 for ages with no issues and loving it. Yesterday morning (while on vacation) picked up the tab from charging and it was boot looping. Tried formatting cache and Dalvik cache as 1st attempt to fix and it reboots when trying to format Dalvik cache, regular Cache deletes just fine. Next reflashed CM10, but still boot loops. Started manually formatting partitions and when I get to Data it reboots.
So this sounds like Brick Bug, but shouldn't be since I'm on CM10/CWM6.0.1.9 and wasn't wiping when it occurred.
So questions for the braintrust...
1) Is there anything I can do to fix this while on vacation when the only PC I can access is Windows RT? Basically it needs to be something I can flash with CMW.
2) Assuming #1 isn't possible, my next step was to try flashing a stock rom when I get back home. Make sense or other thoughts?
Thanks,
Todd
try removing your ext sd card and boot it up. See if that helps. If not, I'd Odin the stock ROM
I have experienced this too. My fix was to delete data after reflashing CM10. I tried just clearing cache and dalvik like you did but it continued to boot loop. So I flashed CM10 because I was at school and it was all I have but it was still stuck and so I cleared data at CWM(Didn't flash CM10 again anymore). And yeah, it pretty much deleted everything, but I had a backup at home. It was fixed.

Thanks. Formatting data causes a reboot, so I think I'm stuck until I get back home and can use Odin.

For the sake of the archives...reflashing stock Honeycome fixed the partition problem and allowed me to re-install CM10.

Infinite booting

So I haven't changed anything on my phone in a little while. Running CM 10.1 (from about a month ago) with no issues.
Today, my phone on my desk at work reboots. Ok, whatevs. Boot animation, CM animation, get to home screen, it says 'Loading Widget' then reboots. It's been doing this for about an hour now.
Any ideas of what to do, short of re-flashing? (which I realize isn't that bad, compared to problems that a lot of people have).
Thanks
If it isn't booting properly, I wouldn't think there's any other option apart from flashing again.

Just dirty flash (wipe cache and Dalvik, then flash) and see if it boots. Or restore a nandroid, if you have it. Either would have taken about 5 minutes.
Of those fail, then full wipe and reflash.

Managed to get it to reboot into bootloader, wiped cache and dalvik, and then it worked! (didn't flash anything).
No idea what broke it, but it's working now. Thanks for the responses

Just getting the logo and a black screen after an update

Samsung Galaxy S2 i727 Skyrocket.
I recently updated to a 4.3 rom.
It booted up and I just got a message "Unfortuanately, Nfc Service has stopped. Blame Tyler."
I couldn't get the message to go away and the only thing I could do was a hard reboot.
Still same issue.
Rebooted into Recovery mode.
Factory Reset, wipe cache partition, format /system, wipe dalvich cache
Restored an older rom.
It booted up with no issues. But when I rebooted, I just get the Samsung logo and then the screen goes black.
I even tried Factory Reset, wipe cache partition, format /system, wipe dalvich cache and installed a new rom from scratch.
Same problem.
I have no idea what to try next or why this is happening.
Any help or comments are welcome.
Thanks

What version of cwm? Most likely you need to update it. And what 4.3 rom?
Thanks.
