So I flashed the superlite CM10 rom yesterday and everything was running fine, except the phone would occasionally reboot. But this was happening when i had the older version of the same rom and it wasnt that big a deal. Today, it restarted and now it wont boot the OS, go into recovery, or anything. All it does is vibrate every few seconds. I get to the Samsung screen, then it goes black and keeps vibrating every few seconds. If i try to boot to TWRP, it gets to the TWRP boot screen, then the screen goes black and the same vibrating thing happens. Am i hard bricked or what? Thank in advance!

Hi guys,
So i went to Romkitchen.org, and cooked a rom. now this is my first rom so i have never flashed one before. Now whats happening is that when i boot up my phone, everything seems fine. although there is a pixelated screen before the splash pops up. Now thats not the problem, the problem is that i cant do anything on my phone. whenever my phone is turned on, i can use it for like 5-6 seconds, and then the splash screen pops up again. And this keeps looping over and over again. i tried using that small window of time to factory reset, since it didnt reset when i flashed the rom for some reason. except when i try to reset it, the phone reboots. except it keeps on the AT&T screen. Same thing happens when i try to flash to rom with ROMmanager. Please help! im 13 so i cant afford a new phone, since i got this one with a contract. Oh by the way, My phone is the Samsung Captivate.
hello,
I tried flashing an ICS ROM onto my Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (i727 AT&T) using Odin.
It was stuck at recovery.img. I unplugged my phone after a while, and then it wouldn't turn on. I would hold the power button, and then the Samsung logo would appear for a second, screen would go black for a second or two, and then the Samsung logo would come on again for about a second. Then the screen goes black.
I got into recovery mode, and wiped my data 3 times. I also wiped the cache. Then I tried rebooting the system, but the phone wouldn't turn on.
I took out the battery several times, and even tried turning the phone on with a different battery, once again to no avail.
Now I'm trying to flash the ROM on again, but it's stuck at recovery.img again.
PLEASE HELP. How do I get my phone back to normal/successfully get the ICS ROM on it?
I'm a noob at this.

Install this rom and you should be able to boot
Breaking News: ICS for Skyrocket Leaks, We've Got The Link (AT&T)
XblackdemonX,
That's the exact ROM I tried to flash. It's stuck at recovery.img. I unplugged and my phone wont boot.
However, that link mentions Heimdall files, what are those?

Hi,
So my SGS2 Skyrocket is stuck in a boot loop. I've have the Sky Icecream Sandwich ROM installed for a few months now, and haven't changed anything recently.
What is happening is my phone with vibrate every 2-3 seconds with a blank screen. When I take out the battery/power source, and put it back in, the phone shows the Samsung splash (not the Android splash) for a few seconds, then goes blank and does the vibrating again.
I've tried plugging it into the computer, but the power it gets from USB turns it on and into the boot loop, so I can't get it into any kind of recovery mode. I also tried the Vol+Home+Power key combo, with nothing.
Any idea what could cause this/what the course of action should be? Thanks!
Turn phone on and wait 2 hours. If it wont work do what you use to do when you booting recovery mode. (home screen i guess). But hold it longer.
Good luck
nathan-96, do you have any idea what caused this? Because what's concerning me is that it's not getting past the Samsung icon (before android starts actually booting).
When you say turn it on, do you mean just put in the battery? Because the loop starts right when I put the battery in, it doesn't wait for me to press anything.
No, I meant turning it on. Hold centre button and put battery in. Just hold it for a moment. Hopefully you will reach recovery.

Can you access download mode instead of recovery? If so you could try re flashing something with Odin...
Definitely try getting the battery out for a few minutes and boot the phone while maintaining the combination to enter recovery

You have CWM on your phone? Have you visited the forum for your device?

AT&T Skyrocket BOOT LOOP Cyanongenmod 10
Hi ,
I´am playing with my Skyrocket to run the Cyanogenmod 10 and always I got stuck at Boot Loop .
This is what I have and did :
- Running AT&T Stock ICS 4.0.4 UCFL6 rooted ( I have a back up of this)
- CWM 6.0.1
- Cyanogenmod 10 Nightly Dec 07 , but I also tried with Cyanogenmod 10 Stable
- Gapps
- Factory Reset / wipe cache
- Wipe dalvik
- Mount/storage format system
- install using CWM Cyanogenmod
- install using CWM gapps
- Mount/ storage format cache
- reboot
I also tried to wipe twice as other threads say.
So I´am still with the boot loop
I returned my backup to the ICS ...
Thanks in advance !!!
Skyrocket Bootloop
Whats happening is the power button acts as if its being pressed. Thats why you have the bootloop and the phone turns on as soon as you put the battery in.
Try repeating pressing the power button or hold the power button without the battery for a few seconds. :fingers-crossed:
I'm having an unusual problem for me I've not came across this before, I can get my tab 2 - 5110 to boot into download mode but not recovery mode, It will boot to the rom normally when I shut it down completely to the charge battery animation will it boot up normally. If I try restarting the tablet by holding in the power button then releasing it at the samsung logo it just goes to a blank black screen also kies nor odin recognises my tablet its a very unusuall problem for me and I've tried everything I know to try fix it but with no success so far, I was running phils touch recovery and brolees 3.0 themed rom, my tablet worked perfectly until I tried to install brolees 4.0 over the top of his previous one the 3.0 which I thought would have been straight forward, at first it wouldn't get past the samsung logo but I worked out if I can get it to shut down to the charge battery animation it will boot normally but it reloads the apps everytime, anyhoo if anyone has had a similar issue or knows what stupid mistake ive made I would really appreciate any help, thank you in advance!
I cannot get my gt2 10 to boot and keep recovery

I have a rooted and bootloader-unlocked Inspire 4G. A few months ago, I had been using the MoKee 4.2.2 ROM for some time, and one day, my phone's screen simply froze. I thought I shouldn't be worried about it, so I pulled the battery off, slapped it back in and tried turning on the phone again. It never got past the MoKee loading screen. I tried charging it, leaving it to boot for hours but nothing.
Next, I tried rebooting into CWMrecovery to try different stable backups I had from some time before that happened. The backups restored successfully, but again, the phone stayed stuck in the loading screen. I tried the same with 4EXT Touch Recovery and wiping all the data before the backup, but still nothing worked.
Since I was too busy at the time to install a new ROM and flash a new boot image, I decided to put the phone away and use my backup Galaxy Ace. Today, a few months after that happened, I tried to boot the phone into bootloader and I can't even achieve that. Holding the volume down rocket and power buttons, the phone still boots normally and stays stuck on the loading screen.
What weirds me out the most is that this was all random--I did not drop the phone or did things to it that could break it.
I feel if I could get into recovery I'd be able to do something else about it.
Any ideas?
Me too
Weird, mine just did the same thing today. Crashed, had to pull battery, now stuck at Mokee. Tried clearing DC, cache, factory reset. No luck.
