Corrupted CWMR? Boot loop

Hey all, first time posting here,
So, I rooted my phone a few days ago and flashed Invisiblek's CM10(Running the August 10th build), using the instructions found here. Haven't had any problems at all until now. I had to reboot my phone, and now it's stuck in a boot loop. The CWMR screen is missing the background, and it won't let me boot into ODIN mode. What do I do?
Thank you for any help!

You should be able to boot into odin by taking the battery out, and then putting it back in while holding Volume Down + Home + Power at the same time. And then just flash a stock or stock rooted image in odin.

There we go. Thank you very much!

Flashed the ROM linked from here. Now I'm stuck on the 4G LTE screen. Suggestions?

Flashed it again. Still nothing. Did I brick it?

If you can get into Odin mode, I suggest flashing back go stock and starting over. If you can't get Odin to work, or even enter download mode then you might have other problems.

I am (thankfully) able to get into odin mode. Where can I get the stock ROM for the US VZW version? I haven't been able to find that anywhere, and the thread on here only has dead links.

Flashed again, still nothing. I get stuck at the 4G LTE loading screen.

Found a stock ROM and flashed back to it. Still stuck at that screen. Did I brick it?

dont forget to wipe data/cache...
it happens
you can do this by booting into stock recovery
Volume UP + Home + power.

i love you too.. lol ive been there..

So, I've got it worked out so that I have a recovery image made of a rooted version of the stock ROM. However, I SWEAR a kitten dies every time I look at the TouchPiss interface, but whenever I try to flash Invisiblek's CM10 I get stuck in a boot loop. Any ideas as to what's causing it? I've tried clearing data/cache/davlik cache before flashing the ROM, after flashing the ROM...

Would there be any way at all that I could flash it through ODIN?

Hi,
I also had some troubles recently and I did a lot to actually be able to boot again.
This may be a stupid question but did you really install CWM or does it boot to the standard recovery? I had some troubles installing CWM in the beginning.
My first step was to install CWM (I used TWRP) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1851548
These steps where mentioned in some thread but I cannot remember where:
1. When flashing CWM through odin untick the "Auto Reboot" option within Odin.
2. Flash CWM.
3. When done , press power & volume up ( the one apart from power button ) until the Samsung logo appears, then leave both buttons.
4. CWM will appear.
5. Choose "Reboot System now "
6. You will get a new screen with an option mentioning something like " disable flash recovery" , press it & reboot.
7. Now if you get back to pressing power & volume up you will have a permanent CWM.
I had to do a full wipe to install a new firmware and I used stock 4.1.2 DEODEXED - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909950
After the wipe I installed via CWM (TWRP) and loaded the firmware from external SDCard (it has to be FAT32 at least for mw exFat was not working).
Good luck!

Yes i Had success flashing CwM on odin and also I unchecked auto reboot as I said I dont know why my volume button are reversed holding volume up and power after flash it will bring me back to odin mode... very wierd and there is not problems with my tablet is only one month old no. buttons damaged

I flashed the German 4.1.1 onto my 8013. when I went back to ICS to get the official update I was stuck on Samsung logo. I had to reflash the ICS a second time and then I was all good. I didn't have CWM tho, I was rooted with the exynos exploit

If you are able to boot into CWM (and you do not have any relevant data left on that tables) do a wipe again (there are several wipe options).
Cache and Dalvik Cache wipe is very important and I also do a wipe for /system, /cache and /data.
Then try to boot into CWM and install the ROM from there. For me only the installation via SDCard worked.

Hey man,
Heres what you do.
1) Boot into download mode, and flash the stock JB
Get CWM High on Android from max at rootgalaxynote.com heres the link http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...t-galaxy-note-10-1-easiest-methodcwmmethod-2/
The file you want is the root galaxy note 10.1 zip.
2) Open ODIN and flash Max's CWM high on android.
3) Reboot Recovery will work now. BUT WHEN YOU TURN OFF YOUR DEVICE IT WILL AUTO REBOOT, SO WHEN THE SCREEN GOES BLACK AFTER YOU SWITCH IT OFF IMMEDIATELY START HOLDING VOLUME UP PLUS POWER. WAIT FOR THE SAMSUNG Galaxy note 10.1 LOGO TO FLASH ON TWICE. LET GO OF POWER AND CONTINUE HOLDING VOLUME UP, WAIT UNTIL CWM RECOVERY STARTS!!
4) Wipe data factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache three times each in that order.
5) Reboot and wait up to 10minutes for the device to boot VOILA!!! You have your not3 back on stock JB or ICS whichever you originally flash!
Please donate if this helps and thumbs up!:good:

Getting back to stock from bootloop has been the same for years and does not need such a convoluted method as yours .
Fixed enough bootloops on multiple devices including Note 10.1
But if it works for you then use it one more method of fixing boot-loop is one more tool to save the day .

Your method doesn't work.
Convoluted by definition means too complex to follow.
In the context of successfully getting a device step by step to a working state it is the steps that are necessary for understanding. Especially for many beginners.
Convulsion is not the same as clarity. Which is lacking in your response to Manny.
Der cwm error. Reboot CWM.. Der. He mentioned being unsuccessful at getting into cwm.. derp.
You posted on a thread I made about bootloop after update check on root injected FW. You said the easy method to get out of bootloop is to flash stock FW through odin. That method doesn't work. It also shows how your opinion changed thread to thread...

Hey Guys I really appreciate both of you, If works or not I least you guys are trying to help this is cool, here is the updated news I know you guys will say it was dumb but i send it to samsung say what they say I'm 90% sure they will say I root because my odin mode was counting 30 already lol and it was saying CUSTOM , So if they denied to fix I suppouse to get it back when I get it back we will try to fix that crazy bootloop I will be back here as soon I get my Tab back but for now Thanks so much for the help

Mate if you send to Samsung there won't be a bootloop problem... They'll probably flash the stock rom, find it doesn't work and replace the motherboard....
Depending on how nice the repair guy is it might cost $$$ or nothing...
Here's hoping you get a lenient guy....

[Q] Need help with bricked miro (stuck on Sony logo) (CM10 cockup)

Hi guys.
so here is what happened to start with:
i tried to to put CM 10 jelly bean on it. (Free xperia Project) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997251
i followed all the instructions given in the how To', except for one
i overlooked on the kernel installation procedure(my bad ) and i directly went for the ROM and Gapps one.
i did all this through the latest Version of CWM, it successfully installed both, ROM and gapps.
but after that i tried to reboot, it didn't reboot
all it does is that, when i press the power button, it vibrates once, and if i constantly press on the vibrate button, it constantly Keeps on vibrating :/
without showing anything on the screen.. bricked i thought!
so to get out of it i started using Fastboot.exe using this as as a guide: http://forums.droidbeans.com/tutori...SESSID=af435aa8d3021e9723408b9fbec9d7d4#msg83 (part 3 onward). that didn't work as it had problems flashing cache and recovery (i think i made a huge error as it wont flash to cache and recovery anymore :/
so to get around it i I managed to get hold of the ftf. (Generic) I have flashed it using flashtoot but it still hangs on the Sony logo and does not much more.
so then I tried flashing FXP boot.img using fastboot and that went on ok and now I can get it into cwm recovery to flash cm10 rom onto it (with no errors) but it still hangs on the free xperia logo after wiping although it doesn't seem to want to wipe the cache. So I'm not sure where to go from here. stumped!
If it helps, when i start CWM Recovery It says something like E: can't retrieve / open recovery log a few times at the bottom of the screen And in fastboot I can't wipe or flash to recovery. at all. I now don't even know if that's the problem
I did the defeated thing and took it to the shop to see what they say and they want to send it away. But I will have to pay once they work out its my error, and im in no doubt it is. so I still have it, hoping i can sort it
if anyone can help i would be eternally grateful. the phone is only a month old and i cant really afford to replace it :'(

Update. I've found out from other page that it could be a problem with the kernel. I flashed it separately and it still hangs on Sony. I'm looking for a stock boot.img and I will try that.

Stuck with Samsung Logo after installing TWRP

Hi,
I decided to root and installed a custom recovery on my G920l.
The root went fine and I installed TWRP but once I tried to reboot into the recovery my phone has frozen and doesnt want to turn off.
I don't get what I did wrong and how to fix it or at least how to turn the phone off?
Thanks

I just figured out how to restart it holding power + volume down but I guess my TWRP doesnt work...

Try to Flash stock kernal for fix stuck on boot.

The phone is booting fine but I guess the recovery still doesnt work.
And TWRP keep failing to install the custom recovery ???

i got the same situration . do u know how to solve it

Hi guys, i have a g920f with 5.1.1.
Installed twrp 2.8.7.1 and i want to install a custom rom. To copy the rom on the phone, in the past on galaxy s4, i used to reboot in recovery twrp, then wipe everything and copy the rom file on the phone.
Now with twrp 2.8.7.1 and S6 when i reboot in recovery mode i'm not able to copy any file on the phone because i don't see the phone in windows explorer.
I think is twrp mtp problem, do you have the same issue? any workaround?
thanks in advance
