[Q] I am Bricked....i think

Ok, So i rooted my T-mobile G2x 2.3.3 and there were difficulties when i flashed the Cyanogen 7mod. The Rom worked but the only default was i didnt get data. Like i couldnt even get Edge. The only way to use internet and stuff was through wifi. SO then i reflashed it thinking it was a bad flash. But when i reflash through rom manager it gives me the option to downoad with google apps. so i clicked that option. It downloaded fine but on the reboot it stayed stuck on the 2nd LG screen. Am i bricked or if anyone can help id appreciate it alot.

U can't do it via rom manager. U have to flash recovery using nv flash, then u can try to flash custom rom. Remeber to wipe data and format system before flashing any rom.
U r not bricked yet
Check here to nv flash the cwm

Did you flash CWM via NV Flash. If not, do that. Then boot into recovery by holding down the power + volume down keys until you get the second boot logo. Then wipe the dalvik cache and the regular cache. That is usually why a phone refuses to boot.
Also, if your phone turns on it is not bricked. Bricked means when you press the power button nothing happens at all. You can be soft-bricked like you are, but it can be easily fixed. Nothing to panic about.

I did all of that im sorry if i gave you info wrong. Like i cant do anything it turns on but goes to the first LG screen then goes to the new LG screen with the blue streaks and it stays there. Then when i try to go into CWR it shows the LG with a blue and black loading bar below then shows as if its loading something then it just goes back to the blue LG screen and im stuck there.

You have stock recovery on the recovery partition, not CWM. You MUST flash CWM onto the physical recovery partition using NVFlash with the One Click flasher. You used Rom Manager and that doesn't install CWM onto the recovery partition. Once you have CWM properly installed you can enter recovery and revive your phone.

@OP, this is is correct. Use tga gunmann's nvflash tool from the development section. The process is super easy. Just make sure to follow his instructions closely. Just fyi, most people get errors during the nvflash process because they don't install the apx drivers appropriately, so take your time and read the instructions carefully.

Start off by wiping cache and then go to Advanced and wipe dalvik cache. If you still can't boot after that then try a full factory reset.
Just remember the first boot after wiping dalvik cache can take several minutes as android rebuilds the dalvik cache. All subsequent reboots will be MUCH faster.

Did you do as phburks said and go into advanced and wipe the Dalvik Cache. Most issues of not booting are related to the Dalvik Cache not being wiped after flashing a new rom. That is essential to getting your phone to boot again. A factory reset DOES NOT clear the Dalvik Cache.

Boot back into cwm, go to Mounts and Storage, format /system and then reflash your rom.

Could be a bad download. I'd try downloading again. Use your computer to download again and save it to your microsd card. Then reinsert the sdcard, boot back into cwm and try again.

The reason I ask is that with cm7 you have to flash 2 separate zip files. First you flash the actual cm7 zip which installs the rom and then you flash the gapps zip which installs the Google apps (market, gmail, etc). Make sure you have both on your sdcard and then flash the rom first and gapps second.

Im glad you brought that up because when i first flashed Cyanogen i did also flash gapps but after i flashed gapps thats when i wouldnt get data. Do you know the reason for this? or was it could have been another bad flash?

Not sure. I'd just play it safe, re-download both, wipe data, and reflash both. Sometimes its hard to determine which step went wrong and its best and quicker to just start with a clean slate and redo everything.

I wont be able to post for a while so good luck.

[Q] Phone doesn't boot

Yesterday i preformed a hot reboot because my phone was not installing apps correctly. I used the app Hot Reboot. When i looked at my phone again this morning it was still booting! I took the battery out and back again and pressed the power button. But how i try it keeps booting all the time! I can get into all boot modes but i don't want to flash a whole new rom 'cause i haven't backup all my stuff... What can I do? Will this be solved with flashing for example a new kernel or anything wich doen't reset my phone? I'd really appreciatie help!

Try clearing the cache and the dalvik cache in recovery, if that doesn't work tho you will most likley have to do a full wipe and re-install your rom.

Tnx but my phone still keeps on booting after wiping cache. Is there maybe a way to backup all my system 'n data files using adb or something?

It also happened to me this morning...u may again flash your device with the stock roms (froyo or gingerbread) again by using Odin Multi downloader...first power off the phone..then hold volume down+home+power on
To bring into download mode
Then flash the roms...it should restart....at least worked for me

Go into recovery mode and then go to backup and restore and then select backup. It usually takes a little while backing up the system so be patient.

I don't have clockworkmod recovery. Can I just flash the latest version of g3mod (wich involves cwmrecovery)? Doesn't it reset my phone if I flash that?
But are there no possibilities using adb? Because i run one of the first g3mod kernels...

Just flash the latest G3MOD kernel and use the CWM from that. It won't wipe any data whatsoever but if you get force closes it is recommended that you wipe the data from CWM. I don't really know how to use ADB but i think rudolf895 has a tutorial on youtube. Google 'rudolf895' and find his video that is called how to make your own custom ROM.

[Q] PLZ HELP!! very bad soft bricked GT-P5100 :'(

2 days ago i was just going around my advanced junk with clean master app. there was a filed named empty folders which was 11 mb in advanced junk section, so i cleared the file and went to play angry birds, then suddenly it stuck and rebooted. :'( now every time it boots up, shows the boot image, starts the cyanogenmod boot animation and then the boot animation stucks and then the whole process again...REBOOT LOOP
i tried every thing till now:
1. tried to install stock rom through odin but still shows cyanogenmod animation and reboot loops
2.tried to install different recovery but the recovery doesn't change also.
3. tried to install a different rom for eg: PAC rom. it installs but it still shows cyanogenmod
4. also now i tried to install stock firmware with pit file but it still shows cyanogenmod animation.
AND MY WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED MONTHS AGO
i think there is a problem with the partition or something... i dont know how to fix it

If you are able to boot to recovery, can't you wipe completely? (System, cache, data) Once CM is gone you should be able to install other Rom. I'm a little confused how CM could continue to boot if it has been wiped from phone...

You can flash a Custom-Recovery using Odin.
You´ll find a link latest recoverys in my signature.
If Stock Recovery still boots you need to uncheck "Auto-Reboot" in Odin. When Odin finished flashing, wait 1 minute to be sure. Then directly boot into recovery from download-mode and enjoy the custom recovery.
This will increase your flashcounter!
Put your Rom & Gapps on your MicroSD Card
In CWM / CWM based recoverys:
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvic Cache
Wipe Data Factory Reset
format /system
fromat /data and /data/media (this will format your internal sd! be sure your rom placed on microSD card)
flash the rom
reboot (first boot can take ~30 minutes - if it still bootloops: something´s worng )
if everything working:
reboot recovery
flash gapps
reboot

Strange that reflashing the system didn't help. You could try it with an other recovery?

[Q] flashing from cm11 to 12 nightly then PA bootloop help needed

ok so here is what i have done and what has happened. so far google and the search box keep taking me to threads with similar problems but those fixes dont work or do not apply to me afaik.
so i started on cm11s stock rooted on the One. (bootloader is already unlocked)
checking the PA rom thread it said if you are flashing from cm11 make sure to flash to cm12 first, then flash gapps.
once that is working get into recovery mode (twrp in my case) clear cache and dalvik then flash PA rom
done that then ended up in an android apps loading bootloop. i have flashed GAPPS also but still remaining in the bootloop.
now if i go back to cm12 i can get to the homescreen and use it a little. but once i plug the usb cable in (connected to PC) it reboots. it also reboots randomly. i have since just wiped the entire phone. now once im on the homescreen i try to access the internal storage in windows and the device appears but does not show anything. i am trying to copy the PA rom zip and Gapps zip to the phone to try flashing again. since it has been crapping itself i have been using adb sideload to flash files.
so what am i missing, what have i forgot to do along the way?
cm11 to cm12 then PA as per instructed is giving me a bootloop (with wiping cache+dalvik when supposed to)
any help is appreciated,
cheers,
kanjo

The PA thread actually says to flash PA over the top of CM12 while only wiping cache and dalvik cache? No wiping system or data? I'd put money on that being the cause of your problems. The only reason to flash CM12 first is to have the proper updated firmware installed in preparation for PA. Leaving the system and data partitions intact before flashing a different ROM (PA over CM12) is asking for trouble.
Go into TWRP and perform a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache), then flash the PA zip and the gapps zip and reboot. Don't flash CM12 again because the firmware was updated the first time you flashed it.
EDIT: Exactly which thread are you getting these instructions from? Neither of the PA threads that I'm aware of contain those instructions.

was coming back just now to update whats happening.
i finally got PA to boot. after many many fresh installs of cm12. one booted without a loop. i went back to twrp did a factory reset (wipe of dalvik and cache) (device was already freshly wiped of all data) had tried this many times but it finally booted.
now i have some weird things happening., ie. if i go into settings and enable or disable ADB the phone reboots... it didn't have that happen when i was on cm11. so not sure why it is happening now.
further if i install GAPPS i get a boot loop of android is upgrading. not sure why. the only boot that seems to work is when i run PA no gapps and no SUroot. any ideas why this is happening? or for how long the android is upgrading is meant to loop. ive seen some people say it is normal and could last 10 minutes. ive sat through multiple sessions of this some 1hour+ long. so not sure what is going wrong. i dont usually have much trouble flashing roms. this one is puzzling.
**edit**
forgot to add when it does boot. well when it did,. its now on a Android is upgrading loop after flashing GAPPS and enabling root......
anyway when it did boot the homescreen would show an error saying "settings has stopped" not sure why that is happening either.

Just to be clear, you've wiped system, data, cache, and dalvik cache directly before flashing PA? No CM flashes since wiping all of those partitions?
Also, which thread are you getting those install instructions from? Neither of the PA threads that I'm aware of contain those instructions.

ill try to clean up what has happened here;
have tried booting to twrp. wiped all data,
flashed PA
booted. with weird errors (settings has stopped and reboots on usb plugged in or adb turned off or on)
tried to flash gapps and enable root
now bootloop of android is upgrading.
going to go back to twrp. wipe all data and flash PA again without gapps and without root. will report back in about 10 minutes. will flash by using TWRP and ADB sideload.
do i need to reflash cm12 if i clear all data in twrp? i saw you mention above once i have flashed cm12 once it will have the need FW files to go to lolipop (in this case PA rom) at the moment i am trying to sideload PA rom after wiping data, system, cache and dalvik. is this why i am having the issue?
im dead tired so i admit i can be making mistakes though everything i have done seems to be what i am meant to do. flashed from cm11 to cm12, cleared all data, then flashed PA+gapps and root. = upgrading boot loop and errors mentioned above. tried flashing just PA and it booted with same errors, flashed gapps and errors.
all the files MD5s look good. not sure what is wrong.
--edit--
okay now i am at homescreen on PA.
when enabling/disabling adb in dev settings i get a reboot. is this normal now? does it need to reboot to mount the filesystem or something?
when it does boot after enabling adb i get "settings has stopped"
going to go to TWRP and flash GAPPS now and leave root not installed. will report back in a sec.

You only need to flash CM12 once, ever. The wipes don't remove the firmware.
Right now this is the exact (and only) process you need to follow:
1. Boot into TWRP.
2. Wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, and data.
3. Flash ROM + gapps together.
4. Reboot phone.

balls, was hoping to us PA, haven't used it since my old s3 and figured it was the rom for me again. will have to check the rom comparison spreadsheet and look into others.
right now i have sideloaded PA alone. will copy PA and gapps to the internal storage to make things easier.
but it doesnt look like it is going to work for me.
going to try it once more like you said but locally rather than through sideload. though the internal storage is deciding when it does and doesnt want to show up.
TWRP
wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, and data.
and flash them both in tandem.
and for the fun of it when it asks if i want to install root i will let it go right ahead.
maybe this time it will work. if not then its a different rom for me. sadly.

okay so now **** got retarded. TWRP has been replaced by the stock cm11 recovery and i am too pissed off to think straight and cannot remember how to get this son of a ***** rooted again let alone to flash TWRP. i dont want to use any toolkits they all seem broken as hell.
can anyone point me in the right direction because ive just about lost my **** and this phone is going to meet my fist head on very shortly...
**edit**
done. after all this i am now on cm11 stock rooted ....seriously. hours upon hours, just to get back to where i started.
man i love when things go smoothly. anyway cheers for your help @Heisenberg . n

Is the ROM you are flashing made for your specific model number? Are you using the newest version of TWRP that you can find? Are you factory resetting, wiping cache and dalvik when you flash? Have you tried doing an advanced wipe in TWRP to wipe system partition and data partition and then flashing your ROM then wiping cache and dalvik after you flash?

1)in TWRP, tap the Wipe button, then it should say at the top of the screen: "factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik". Swipe the slider to do the wipe.
2)after wiping, tap the home button in TWRP, on TWRP home screen, tap the Wipe button again, then tap the advanced wipe option, wipe system and data.
3)tap home button, on home screen, tap install then flash your ROM and Gapps.
4)after flashing ROM and Gapps, wipe cache and dalvik(do not factory reset).
5)reboot.
