i was running CM7 then i went back to stock and it kept saying my memory was getting low so i went to settings>privacy>factory data reset. then now it wont come out of android system recovery with any rom or anything! PLEASE HELP!!
if i were you i would just load another custom rom:
1. in recovery, wipe data, cache, dalvik cache
2. connect your phone to your computer
3. download a custom rom on your computer and transfer it to your phone (by enabling usbms toggle)
4. flash the rom
ok i did that and it didnt work, said it installed successfully then i went to reboot system now and just went back in android system recovery.
Do it again and again and again until it works. Which recovery are you using and which rom? Btw, I guess you now know why they say not to use the inphone factory reset on the phone. May want to check in the ov forum instead of the general forums

and after the xionia_cwma_12518.6 my phone keep boot into recovery mode wipe data, cache, dalvik cache reboot and go back to LG log freezes that or sometimes it going back to the same state :"recovery mode wipe data, cache, dalvik cache reboot" I can't make the phone connected stable with my pc if i can get this connection stable i would fix my problem so i can't even use ADB.EXE
This just started yesterday and i cant stop it. My phone reboots and says that memory is nearly full, then goes into a bootloop. I cant stop it long enough to back up texts, phone contacts and call log which is REALLY important; is there a way to back that up through recovery?
i'm really desperate here!
Edit: I can get the phone working through a format, but i need to be able to get contacts and sms backed up
Alternitavely, is there a way to run a clockword mod backup on an android emulator on my comp, so i can back up my important stuff?
what you should try doing is putting your sd card directly into your computer and delete stuff you don't need to get back so memory and then once you do that out it back into your phone
i cleared up the memory, internal and external. the stupid ROM is still broken
if its just the rom go to a different one and redownload mikrom later to make sure nothing happened in the initial download
If you haven't already, try removing some apps through adb, then reflash the ROM only wiping dalvik and cache. You shouldn't lose any of your text, call logs or contacts if you don't wipe data.

I love it sooooo the rom isnt stupid, the team of developers supporting it are amazing and you should setup adb and get a logcat, also you should nandroid before you flash so in case it goes wrong you can flash back, like insurance but you actually get something from this without paying..
if you did nandroid boot into bootloader and select recovery (hold volume down and power on use volume button to highlight recovery and power button to select)
I'm not sure if mikrom wipes or not but there's always that advanced restore option in cwm recovery flash rom, restore data and sd-ext if you have a ext partition with important data on it.

Did you ever get this fixed?
The usual way of fixing this is formatting /system, wiping dalvik, wiping cache, and reflashing the rom.

no. what i did was a backup, complete factory reset, wipe, dalvik wipe, etc - several times each, including a full on sd-card format, which took me hours to reload everything back on - and then reflashed MikShift. It worked fine for about a day, but then it started to go into bootloops again, so i again did a backup, full reset and all wipes, and restored data only to the new flash of mikshift. Once again its bootlooping.
LOG: ive been off the forums for several months, how do i get this log?
IMAGE: When i go into bootloader and enter recovery, it shows me a message in green text
"PG06diag.zip
No image!
PG06diag.nbh
No image or wrong image!
PG06img.zip
No image!
PG06img.nbh
No image or wrong image!"
At this point, im ready to RUU back to factory unrooted, so i can take it back to sprint and get it replaced.
I should not need to reflash the ROM every single day.

OK
0) Run a backup with titanium backup.
1) First of all go to clockwork -> mounts storage -> FORMAT /SYSTEM.
2) Wipe /cache, wipe dalvik, wipe/data, factory reset, repartition sd card.
3) Redownload the rom or try a proven ROM like UKE or CM7-255. If AOSP MAKE SURE TO FLASH GAPPS.
NO NEED TO RUU.
4) DO NOT RESTORE YOUR BACK UP. See how stable the phone runs.
5) If the phone is still unstable try a different battery.
6) Do not flash a custom kernel.
i formatted my backup SD card, and copied the essential data to it, and i have it running in the phone now. it seems to be running fine so far, i suspect the other SD may have gotten corrupt or physically damaged
Vic: every single time this has happened, i first went to clear the data and dalvik caches and ran a factory reset, all through the CWM recovery interface. Then when i reinstall mikshift, i restore the data using advanced restore, wait 24-48 hours, bootloops start all over again.
after two days of running on the new sd card, i start getting bootloops again. it must be a problem with the phone or the OS, but at this point i dont care anymore.
Is there a guide to RUU back to stock unroot? this phone is going back to sprint by weeks end, period.
thanks for the help folks.

Here's the 2.2 RUU zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971550 Just put it on the root of sd, boot in hboot and let it do its thing.
Or you can run the RUU exe, just download and run from your pc. It's pretty self explanatory http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335068

The problem is you didn't format /system.
Redownload the Rom. Then follow THIS GUIDE when you flash.

Yeah that guide is great for flashing sense roms since "most" sense roms don't format/wipe the system partition correctly. Aosp roms you just do a data facotry wipe and everything installs just fine
Hi:
I am quite worried, because my Xoom is unable to boot normally. I have EOS Nightly 99 installed, and after many weeks of perfect bahaviour, it was giving some messages like "gapps has closed", so I restarted the tablet. To my surprise, I saw the Moto lgo, the Tam EOS animation, and the "wheel" that appears before booting completely... and that´s it. Stuck.
I tried wiping dalvik-cache and cache and restart. Same result.
I tried restoring a nandroid backup. And here's the strange thing, because it can't restore data. The error message reads:
Error removing /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/webview.db-wal!Error formatting /data!
I tried wiping userdata, same error message
I tried with another recovery, in case it mattered (cwm and rogue). Same error
EDIT (Update):
I tried accessing the Xoom through ADB, and try to delete manually the pesky file. I was succesful. When I tried another "wipe data" from the recovery, I got a similar error:
Error removing /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/autofill.db (another file)
When I tried to delete it, I got the following error message (through adb) [why did it work the first time and not now???]
rm: can't remove 'autofill.db': Read-only file system
Any help, please? I'm at a loss here...
I post some photos of the errors

Yes, I did try that as well. It flashes without problem (rom + gapps), but does not restart (same original problem). I flashed it after a cache and dalvik-cache wipe.

ok backup your recovery to your desktop just so it is safe
try this
wipe cache - wipe dalvik cache - wipe/reset factory data - flash rom only then reboot - if it bootloops again enter recovery and go to advanced settings and run fix permissions and reboot

Thanks for your reply.
The problem, in case I wasn't clear, is that I can not make a WIPE DATA (that's when I get the error). It doesn't help wiping cache and dalvik beforehand. So I am in the same bootloop situation. tried fixing permissions, but I continue in the same situation.

sorry i must of mis-read your op - all i can suggest then is returning to stock using adb guide here http://goo.gl/G09vP then flashing your rom again - just make sure you get the right image for your device

I will try this, as a last resort. Now I am making a backup of my internal sd card, because this process will delete everything in it. In case somebody wonders how to do this (I didn't know it myself), I used adb. The exact command I used was:
adb pull /data/media .
It's taking ages to backup my internal sd files (at a rate of 7Gb/hour aprox).
Meanwhile, anybody knows what possibly is happening to my Xoom?
After wating several hours to back up my internal sd card, I have been able to wipe (format) /data from fastboot. In case somebody needs to do something similar:
Once in recovery, type in your computer:
adb reboot bootloader (wait for the xoom to reboot into fastboot)
fastboot erase userdata
I then rebooted into recovery, and restored a nandroid backup. This time, no problems.
Now I am in the (again) long process of copying the /data/media files back to my Xoom, but I was VERY relieved to see that it was booting normally after this...
glad you got it fixed dude
i have rooted my phone with gingerbreak and wanted to install gingersnap rom. i followed this methood http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197991 and my phone is stuck in fastboot now.... i am able to press home+voldown+power button to go into clockwork recovery i think thats what its called and pretty much nothing else please help im new to this stuff
Go into the recovery, then use the volume keys to navigate around and either the search button or the menu button will select things depending on the version you're using. Once you're there, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then reboot it. The boot will take a long time, if after five minutes it's still trying to boot, then go back into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then install a rom like gingersnap. If after another five minutes that isn't working, boot into recovery again do a factory reset (this will wipe all of your apps, contacts, calendar entries etc), wipe system, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache (do not wipe sd card or external storage) then install a rom like gingersnap and see if it boots up.
thanks for trying to help but none of that helped i dont really know how to install/flash a rom but i looked around a bit and found that i made a backup before i tryed to flash it so thanks
Watch the videos about installation of custom rom for Android (LG P500) !!

Hi All,
I have the Telstra HTC One XL, and have just recently attempted to install CM10 ROM - however have run into some problems that I would appreciate some advice to rectify. I had recently updated to Jelly Bean OTA.
I followed the guide on these forums - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859478
I Successfully unlocked bootloader by following the steps at HTCdev.com
I Successfully installed TWRP Custom Recovery
I Downloaded CM10 as per - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790032. I transferred this as well as Google Apps onto my phones storage.
When attempting to install CM10, I created the Nandroid backup as recommended, and proceeded to wipe the mentioned items using TWRP (a guide I saw said to wipe everything). This is when my Nandroid back-up got wiped. TWRP gives you the option to wipe cache, delvik cache, factory reset, system, external storage, internal storage and format data. I did alll of these, and this was my mistake I believe? I proceeded to try and install CM10 and gapps from internal storage (I had to re load these back on after I wiped everything), and the install of CM10 displayed as successful.
Upon rebooting to system, the HTC screen comes up first and then goes to the CM10 animation. The phone then stays on this animation (rotating circle) for up to 10-15 minutes.
I have read thread after thread with people experiencing similar issues, and have tried rectifying my problem with various versions of roms and different guides out there. I can still boot into recovery (TWRP) mode via bootloader, and this means I can still mount my phone's storage onto my PC and have access to the storage directory. As I have deleted the Nandroid backup though, and because the ROM's won't install, I am stuck in no man's land.
There must surely be a way to have a ROM installed (even if its back to stock Telstra) from the position I am in, it would be greatly appreciated if someone may be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Robbie
maybe yall need to "fastboot flash boot boot.img" now

Why do people keep doing this??? Just because TWRP gives you all those options, doesn't mean you should use them.
Sometimes, people will say to do a "full wipe" when flashing a ROM. But that term is a bit misleading. Factory reset (from TWRP, never from hboot), wipe Dalvik and wipe cache is all that is technically required when flashing a new ROM. Some people like to wipe more "just in case". But if you aren't completely confidant in what you are doing, keep in simple and don't make it more complicated than it needs to be.
I don't know if wiping everything is the cause of your woes, but it certainly didn't help, and caused you to do some extra steps.
Flash boot.img via fastboot as previously suggested. Otherwise, just try to re-download and flash the files agin. Its seems that some people are having troubles booting after flashing CM10 (even after doing the correct wipes and flashing boot.img). Doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason, but just flashing again has fixed the problem for at least one person.
Thanks so much, such a simple fix! That has me booted up into CM10.
I have installed cm-10-20130107-NIGHTLY-evita and cm-10.0.0-evita , however with both of these versions, my touch screen is not working once it boots up. I can function with the volume up/down, and with the power buttons, but cannot get past my SIM card lock screen.
I noticed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083314 (no solution yet)...
Does anyone have a solution to this issue that seems a common one?
Alternatively, more than happy to get an alternative ROM on my phone in the interim...Can someone recommend me a ROM?
Again, I really appreciate the quick response to my problem, very happy my phone is in operation!
