I have recently updated my nexus s to ICS and was using codename android. Everything was fine until I turned off my phone and turned it back on again. The boot animation would load for a couple of seconds and crash, reboots nexus s and on the second boot it eventually starts up. It gets really annoying especially if I needed my phone to boot quickly. I switched roms to nuhetri and the same problem was there. Sometimes it would just stay on the boot animation and loop over and over again until I tool out the battery and wiped the dalvil cache. I was wondering if anyone else has the same problem.

Hello folks, first post, hope you can help.
My phone has a very specific problem that happens with every rom BUT with AOKP.
When the phone is on idle it just gets stuck, black screen, button lights are on. Only thing to do is pull the battery out. It also happened with the stock rom, so I tried to unroot it and give it to sprint but they couldn't take it because of a small crack on the screen(been there forever).
I came back home and tried to flash it with a custom rom again, and recovery was broken, so I flashed recovery on the device 3 times before it started working again.
I randomly chose AOKP and it was working pretty well, although it slowed down lately a lot. I tried to install JB on it recently and the problem returned, so I tried CM9 again, CM10 even tried Bugless Beast, same thing. I keep going back to the backup I have of AOKP and it's the only one that doesn't crash my phone.
I've attached the phone information so you guys can see exactly which built I'm running.
Bump.
Please help me fix my phone, I'm really at loss how to solve this problem,
Do you turn deep idle on? If so that could be the problem......when u flash a new rom, as your setting everything up, make sure deep idle is turned off.....the option is under advanced in the cm roms .......hope that helps
10....0011....10101
so i been trying constantly to install cm10 on my phone and i even tried some of the other roms based on it (pacman and JellyBam) but the phone loads fine and i get the the screen that sais to pick my language (obviously the first time i booted i got the "android is upgrading" stuff)
but on every rom i get like half way though the initial setup and my phone just shuts off but not actully off it just turn off the display and the keys but i cant do anything and i cannot turn back on without pulling the battery.
i managed once to get past the setup screen but then i got some FC's such as clock and keyboard. am i doing something wrong?
i upgraded from Stock GB and also tried from CM7 (stable) and also the cm7 works with the phone signal but every rom i flashed with cm10 i get no signal at all.

SiyahKernel s3-v1.8.8
Posted on January 13, 2013
Changelog
rebased on i9300 update7 sources (sudden-death issue is supposedly fixed in this source drop)
reverted temporary fix for exynos-mem exploit as i9300-update7 sources already fix that
cm10.1 is now supported in dual-boot configurations
1.8.7->1.8.8: fixed cm10.1 not booting when installed as 2ndROM (a tiny typo in ramfs)
BUT,it doesn't work anyway (just trying now at it's stuck on the boot screen)
Just try it and report back! :good:
You do realize that the siyah kernel is for the international S3 which has different hardware then our s3? If you are using a kernel for a different phone then of course it wont boot....

By "International", you mean the exynox version unlocked right?

Flash problems
I've had installs stick at the boot animation or shortly thereafter several times. Usually it's because of a dumb mistake. The only thing that's consistently worked for me is flashing back to stock VZ firmware via Odin and doing the whole process over from root through installation. It sucks but it always works.
Howdy.
I've just flashed CyanogenMod 10.1 - 20130315 to my droid 4 with Safestrap, and I haven't been able to boot into it; the cyanogenmod splash screen with the rotating wheel graphic shows up, but it spins for upwards of 40 minutes without doing anything.
I followed the guide on the cyanogenmod wiki for the droid 4 device. The forum won't let me post a link to it.
Before I installed I wiped / factory reset, and after install I wiped cache/dalvik; still no dice. I've tried doing the same process several times (even wiking the system before trying to reflash), but the same result has always occurred: ever unhelpful eternal wheel...
I'm a bit at my wits end; I haven't been able to find any other information about this that wasn't solved by wiping cache / dalvik, so I turn to y'all for help.
Same here
I installed Cyanogenmod 10.1 with CWM the link:[Recovery/Bootstrap][5-sep-2012] CWM Touch recovery v6.0.1.1 - xda-developers and i went ahead and installed the mod: cm-10.1-20130211 all went fine untill i noticed that my camera is not working (not a big deal) but then i noticed that my phone only saw 488MB out of my 32GB this was un acceptable after i found how to connect my phone to my pc so it showed up as a storage device do that i copied the same mob but a different version (cm-10.1-20130129_v2) so i went ahead and booted into Android system recovery <3e> and i did a factory reset and then i said oh f*** i need CWMR to install the thing so i just waited for it to do its thing and then reboted the device thinking after i boot up i will reinstall CWMR but i was never able to boot because im stuck on the boot animation. Been waiting for +20min or so and nothing please help me what can i do this is my only phone please help
help with CM10.1 ROM issue
Hi folks,
this is my first post on XDA. I have a Sprint htc EVO 4G LTE phone which was running on JB.
Thought of root and flash with CM. So, first I unlocked the bootloader using htc dev and installed TWRP custom recovery and then rooted.
Then I flashed the stable CM 10 then flashed gapps which is compatible for CM 10 version. so far so good. oh, btw I did nandroid backup before flash and also wiped to factory reset, cache and Delvic cache.
After the flash i clicked on reboot system and I see the Cyanogenmod boot, but its stuck at that stage and I waited for more than an hour. No luck.
Thank god I did back up before this, otherwise not sure what I'm gonna do.
But, could someone tell me why it gets stuck at this point. I know some of you guys had this problem. I searched everywhere but didn't get help. I thought of posting this in android development forum, but as a newbie I can't do that.
Please help me out.
P.S: when I'm on boot screen (power button + vol down button) I see unlocked at the top but I also have TAMPERED in red color on top of that. Was this normal? or do you think that is causing the problem? and what should I do now?
(First of all I am not an expert)
It happens sometimes about 1/10 of every flashes I did with cm10
It might because some files didn't get copied or got corrupted.
Just try this method
Format data
Format system
Format cache
Wipe dalvick cache and factory reset
Now flash the ROM
Hit thanks if I helped

(First of all I am not an expert)
First wipe every thing(system,data,cache,dalvick,android secure....)
Now install ROM,
Wait don't install gapps
Now find an extended cm10.1 kernel or lupus kernel(or such kernels) for your device and flash it via pc
I prefer flashing kernel after installing the rom

Ask in the Xperia X10 mini forums.
Three-finger salute
Ran into this situation today when I tried to restore a backup and I couldn't get past the CM10 logo on bootup. Holding down all three buttons, power, volume up and down, got me back to the Clockworkmod boot screen.
ETA: Sorry, posted in wrong forum. My situation pertained to a Samsung Galaxy 5 Media Player.

Hi...i just happened to flash my x10 mini to cm9-robyn yesterday...same thing happpened to me...boot the animation until run of battery....i accidently booted it to recovery and just leave it...fortunately after sometime it booted by itself and run as normal. The cm9 run ok except the wifi is not working. Hope that will help. I am not an expert.
About 9 months ago, I bricked my Blaze, and after giving up, I've been using a new phone in the interim.
Here's what happened:
Battery dies while flashing some rom, get boot loop, fix by flashing stock rom etc.
Flash Kit Kat Rom, phone immediately shuts off when unplugged, works fine plugged in.
Flash stock ROM, infinite boot loop, can get in the CWM recovery, but flashing stock rom, etc. dont stop boot loop
boot loop description : SGSB4G T-Mobile 4G Green Android Rocket Animation --> Glowing Samsung Logo ---> Repeat
I've tried numerous solutions since then but none have worked.
Please help. Winner gets $5.00 paypal bc this is literally the only problem I've never solved.
Your battery is probably bad, replace it and you won't have a problem.

I will see if I can try out a new battery at the store and test the results.
I have been skeptical as to whether the battery was the issue, as the boot loop animation would still work when it was unplugged.
Thanks for the response!
