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.

If nothing else, like Jkilo said, provide a logcat and maybe someone could take a look.
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 keep wiping cache/ wipe data, but after i restart my phone the apps and everything is there. i even flashed stock rom, and everything is there. what is the problem?? how can i flash it back to stock
You have tried to flash the factory image? How did you root your device?

Are you saying all your apps you've past downloaded are there or all add in Google stock apps? If it's your apps, when under phone setup when flashing new ROM, if you don't want to restore the apps of the past to start fresh, uncheck restore or stop downloads on Play Store start up. To flash new ROM and have fresh start, you also have to WIPE data/factory plus cache and dalvik. Clarify is this is not what you needed.
when i go to the bootrecovery and wipe settings, it says error processing rom manager script. please verify that you are perfoming the back up E: unkown volume for path etc..

I don't think you flashed stock rom like you think you did. To wipe the phone of apps you need to do a factory reset. But when you boot back into the phone make sure you don't check the option to restore your Google apps or it will just redownload again.
Just do a factory reset.

Clear the cache in cwm and see if that helps
Edit, if it doesn't you're going to flash the cache.img in fastboot. That should fix your problem

Sounds like a bad recovery flash to me. Try reflashing the recovery and see if problem persists. The recovery is not working and isn't wiping so that's why apps are still there. Reflash recovery, backup, flash new ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507905 i followed this procedure again, but i still get same error.
is there a way to flash it by cwm app? or different method?

Hey guys,
I woke up today to see that my Google Play service was taking up a huge amount of battery overnight. I had heard of this being an issue, so I searched for a fix and downloaded AppOpsXposed. I installed it, rebooted, and found that my phone no longer had any network connection at all (time/date was set back to 1970 too), and my sdcard could not be read. Searching for Network Operators just results in searching forever. I searched for a similar issue/phone state, but couldn't find anything like it (I've never seen this before either)
Realising that I screwed up pretty bad, I booted into recovery and restored a backup made with TWRP two weeks ago, which restored successfully. However after I booted back up, the issues persist!
How bad does it sound? Can I still save it without resorting to flashing a new rom? Should I be wiping caches/data before performing restores?
You should be wiping everything (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) before performing a restore, just in case.

Thanks for your response. I tried the restore once more, this time wiping system, data, cache, and dalvik cache, but unfortunately it didn't seem to help.
If a restore from a backup won't work, would that mean there is a chance that flashing a new rom won't fix the issue either?

It's too hard to say whether it will or won't. Instead of just flashing another ROM though I'd be flashing the stock images with fastboot.

I managed to flash stock, and ran into a few other issues like infinite boot screens, but in the end, I got it all to work.
Thanks for your help!
so i wanted to backup my oneplus one using twrp 3.0 and for some reason i decided to wipe the cache before i backed it up. I went to wipe (just the regular cache) and it kept trying to wipe but it never succeeded so i just forced rebooted it went back to twrp and backed up my phone. Once the backup was done i tried to boot it up and i was met with a boot loop. Then i kept rebooting my phone and no luck. then i tried to completely wipe my phone. well just a factory reset. it didn't work i was greeted with an error saying my cache is not mounted or something like that. so now i cant even wipe anything at all and i think twrp has a feature where you can access files from recovery and that doesn't work for me. adb isnt working either i was trying to push a file. What im trying to do is flash a newer version of twrp or try to adb sideload my same rom. but i dont have access to my same rom cause the links are down. my rom is minimal os btw. any ideas ?
Edit: I've fixed the problem by booting into fastboot and flashing a newer version of twrp 3.0.2. then i wiped the cache and it was successful. then i booted up and it works!
