Serious problem with boot loop - General Questions and Answers

I've spent the last 2 days trying to install CM10.1 on my One X+ but eventhough I meticulously follow the Installation guides: I always end up with AOKP ( Yes you read it right) boot loop with the unicorn and swagger initiation.
I've successfully installed the AOKP before and ever since then, the unicorn boot is stuck on my phone no matter what I do, I've tried a complete wipe of my phone, I've reinstalled the original RUU like 5 times but whenever I try to install the CM10,1 I get stuck on the AOKP boot.
I follow this order of tasks for the CM10.1 Installation:
1.Relock bootloader
2. Install original RUU
3. Let my phone boot in the original ruu and copy the CM10.1 zip + the correct gapps
3.Reunlock bootloader, flash recovery TWRP and let it root my phone with the SuperSU
4. Boot up my phone and let SuperSu complete the rooting through TWRP
5. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Data reset in TWRP
6. Install CM10.1 rom in TWRP
7. Install gapps
8. Restart in bootloader and flash the kernel with the boot.img obtained from the CM10.1 zip file
9. Restart my phone, after the HTC logo, the AOKP unicorn boot animation pops up and stays there forever.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Bootloop problem, totally perplexed

Problem: After installing CWM, the phone won't boot fully. It goes to the HTC screen (with some new red text about this being a development-only build) and then reboots to the same screen over and over.
What I've done based on what I've read here:
Cleared the caches in fastboot and rebooted.
Run the unlock token script again.
Installed TWRP, wiped everything.
Attempted to flash CM9 through TWRP (fails).
Attempted to install Scott's Roms 1.85 ROM throught TWRP (failed).
Reinstalled CWM to try to flash Scott's 1.85, but CWM will not go into recovery mode (just goes to the HTC screen and starts boot loop again).
Attempted to install CM9 and Scott's 1.85 through flashboot, no luck because of missing text files (am I using the wrong package?).
Factory reset just takes me to TWRP, and when I try to factory reset from there it goes back into bootloop.
What does work:
I can get to Fastboot on phone.
With TWRP installed, I can into TWRP recovery.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks.

Uhhhhh...try to relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) and run an RUU. You'll go back to stock. Then follow these steps:
1. Re-unlock your bootloader using the same unlock token you used before
2. Flash TWRP from fastboot (or a one-click)
3. Reboot into TWRP
4. Mount storage and put whatever rom you want into whatever folder you want on the sdcard (CM9 Alpha 5, CleanROM, AOKP M6.2, etc etc)
5. Factory Reset
6. Flash the rom and anything that needs to go with the rom (like Gapps if you're flashing CM9 or AOKP)
7. Reboot and enjoy, be sure to update your SU binaries immediately after booting by opening up the SuperUser app
Also, do not use CWM, our device is not officially supported by the CWM team. Only TWRP is an officially supported recovery for our HOX.

Worked. I had to leave town for a week as I was reading your reply stnguyen, so I didn't get a chance to try it until I got home tonight. I'm up and running again. Thanks a ton!

[Q] TF700T can't get CyanogenMod to load.

Okay I have been using Android 4.1 for a long time on my tablet it has not allowed me to update so I decided I was going to try and get one of these Roms installed.
First try I downloaded the nightly and then just use my CWM 2.X to install it and it went into a boot loop. Then I read up that it needs at least CWM 3.0.6 so I flashed that onto the device and I got it and then I tried to again install the latest nightly. This time It installed and did not boot loop but stock at the mod loading screen.
I then read this needs the 4.2 bootloader installed so I decided to do this -
Fastboot install CWM 3.0.6.0
Reboot
Fastboot install the 4.2 bootloader
Reboot to CWM
Flash up the Nightly
Flash install gapps
Reboot
And I am still sitting at a stuck boot screen.
If I use the standard 4.2.x install from Asus it installs just fine so I am wondering why this mod won't? Anyone have any ideas?

You'll need to reboot after the bootloader flash. Also probably need a full wipe to solve bootloop.

No go.
Did this -
Wipe
Fastboot install CWM 3.0.6.0
Reboot
Fastboot install the 4.2 bootloader
Reboot
Reboot to CWM
Flash up the Nightly
Flash install gapps
Reboot
I finally got it working here is how it worked -
Wipe
Fastboot install CWM 3.0.6.0
Reboot
Fastboot install the 4.2 bootloader
Reboot
Reboot to CWM
Flash up the Nightly
Flash install gapps
Reboot
Stuck at CyanogenMod boot screen for hours. (still not working before)
Reboot
Fastboot install the 4.2 bootloader
Reboot
CyanogenMod installed and came up to setup screen and I am now downloading over wifi all the Apps again.
Thanks for attempting to help. I am wondering if the setting the fastboot to the staging just did not get applied 100% until the nightly got installed and with the reboots they may have kicked the bootloader out of the staging section.

[Q] to root or not to root

Hello,
1st.: while starting this new thread, I looked through the automaticly generated similar threads and found non that was suiting my problem.
Last night I unlocked the bootloader of my wifes Xperia L (C2105) and got stuck into an boot loop. After this I had the need to flash an original rom (4.1.2). This results in an total wipe of the phone :crying:
Now the phone has an unlocked bootloader and an old Android Version. I want to install the pacman rom 4.4.4. I know i have to use cwm or twrp to do this, but do I need to root the device?
I'm a little bit confused. I thought installing the *.img-File from TWRP, with the folloing command, will get me the recovery option an with this option
Code:
c:\fastboot\Fastboot.exe flash boot C:\fastboot\openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-taoshan.img
Can anyone help me out?
My wife is not upset, but with the boot loop from last night in my mind, I'm quit unsure what to do next.
many thanks in advanced
Felix
you need to root the device and use flashtool by androxyde(Easier and user friendly), first download the rom and put it in internal/external memory and then install thunderzap 4.12 by select bootkk.img and install it in fastboot mode in flashtool, now enter the recovery go into wipe and format options and choose clean to install a new ROM and then flash the pac rom and reboot
Root isn't necessary.
Download PAC ROM, Take boot.img inside the zip.
Flash boot.img via fastboot.
Boot into recovery, wipe data / factory reset.
Flash ROM and GApps.
That's it
NOP, you dont need to root to install a custom rom

you can download the rom, extract it and keep, boot.img file, in fastboot folder, and also keep the downloaded rom zip file in sd card for later use.
than you can use use fastboot commands to flash those boot.img which will install the recovery into your phone, than .
use reboot command in fastboot, it will reboot your phone, take out your cable, using volume up key go to recovery,
there clear all the cache and delvik cache file, then, install your custom rom by selecting from your sd card, it will take a bit of time for first time, so don't worry,
than you are done,

Stuck On LG LOGO after rom

Can someone explain what exactly im doing wrong. So i keep getting suck at the LG logo after installing bliss pop (no gapps) heres my steps.
1. Power completely off.
2. Hold up and plug in phone to computer.
3. Restore phone back to 20o
4. Power up and root
5. Move all files to phone
6. Extract IMG from zip and Flashify recovery from here: http://blastagator.ddns.net/twrp.html
7. Reboot into recovery. Flash actual zip from above link (not sure if that actually matter)
8. back to main menu and reboot recovery
9. Wipe everything but internal
10. flash bootloader for 5.1.1 (D80030F(Bump LP)*) here: http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php
11. Flash Bliss Pop.
12. Wipe Cache/Dalvik
13. Reboot
And then repeats the cycle
Is there something im missing or doing wrong here?
EDIT: Got it working. Basically all the way up to step 9 what I did there was wipe again then installed the Stock LP ROM from blastagator and booted into it. I then went back into recovery wiped everything again flashed the D80030F bootlader the bliss and gapps. Working like a charm now. Whatever was in the stock lp ROM is what helped lay the grounds for bliss to work.
i have same issue. i can't boot into rom after flashing any rom using twrp. it just gets stuck on LG logo.
which stock did you flash ? the stripped lp rom from blastagator ? I still couldn't boot into OS.
btw i used ioroot if that matters. should i use some other rooting tool ?

Alternative Fix for Bootloop + TWRP Hang/Reboot

Symptoms: Tablet hangs on Asus logo or continuously reboots to the Asus logo, never to Android. When you try to enter TWRP recovery, it hangs on the TeamWin logo and then attempts to reboot Android, going back to the bootloop.
I wanted to find a different method to solve this issue without having to erase all partitions manually. This is what worked for me.
You will lose all data on the tab regardless of how you fix it.
You'll need these files (and the Android SDK, or at least fastboot)
CWM recovery (Cyanogenmod) http://www.mediafire.com/file/gpkvpnriqevwdfu/cm-11-20160815-NIGHTLY-tf700t-recovery.img md5: f6a3693d42aae4f412c4c8348f7ff185
Zombi-X 6.0 ROM from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65968239&postcount=3719
OpanGAPPs 6.0 pico from here http://opengapps.org/
SuperSU from here https://download.chainfire.eu/1113/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip
Follow steps in Post#2
Put the recovery img in your fastboot folder. The ROM, gapps, and SuperSU go on your external microSD.
Flash the recovery with fastboot-don't forget the .img at the end
>fastboot flash recovery cm-11-20160815-NIGHTLY-tf700t-recovery.img
You should see a blue progress bar on the tab while writing. When it's finished reboot to recovery.
Format "/data and /data/media"
Flash the ROM, SUperSU and gapps.
Wipe cache
Reboot. CWM will ask to reinstall su on exit, answer No
Once the ROM is up and running, you can flash whatever recovery and ROM you prefer.
