I updated TWRP to the latest 2.6.3.1. Then I made a backup and reflashed a mod I have used often on this phone/rom. The phone got stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S III" screen. So I tried restoring my backup and it failed. So I tried restoring the old backup I keep from a fresh setup, for emergencies, and it failed. So I odin'd back using the no-data-wipe file I used to set up this and other phones. It succeeded, but my phone still won't go past the Samsung Galaxy SIII page. So now I'm kinda at a loss.

Try to reboot a few more times. Also try to wipe cache/dalvik then reboot. If none of that works, you probably need to do a full data wipe to get back up and running. I hope there's nothing on your internal storage that you need and didn't back up.
Rebooting didn't work. I'm trying the root66 method that wipes all. Luckily the internal card is backed up

So, successfully completed all steps flashing back to root66, phone got past the "Samsung Galaxy SIII", but now hangs at the splash screen. I'll retry what I have done, but I'm about to be out of options.
Edit: Working. Forgot the last step of factory reset/cache.

Hi,
I have a Nexus S I9020T, rooted and running MIUI.
Today I rebooted my phone (after applying a new font via Font Changer), and it got stuck at the Google logo.
I have tried rebooting via fastboot, to no avail. I have also tried pulling the battery several times. I have even tried doing a full wipe and restoring a Nandroid backup that I made via ClockworkMod after it got stuck, but it still refuses to go past the Google logo.
Can anyone please suggest something? Thanks so much.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the device was plugged into the computer at the time, and I am not sure whether or not the SD was mounted. Could this be the cause?
If SD isn't mounting you wont get past the Google logo. See if it is mounted in recovery

I bet if you reflash the original miui rom you were on you'll be good to go. Sounds like the font package messed up the miui system. Good luck.
And no need to wipe most likely. I've bootlooped my miui applying themes and such and just reflashed with no wipe and good to go.

Well, I think I may be in trouble here.
I set out to completely restore my N8010 to the stock UK firmware but unfortunately I ran into some few problems.
I read an article (this one) on how to restore a Note 10.1 back to factory settings letter by letter and I'm now stuck on the Samsung logo.
I did run into a problem however. When I was using Odin putting the files onto the device I brilliantly got a power cut. Not thinking much of it, when I got my power back, I tried again using Odin and it said it worked but now I'm trying to boot up it's not. Anyone have any troubleshooting hints?
I used the same page for instructions. The same thing happened to me- got stuck on Samsung logo. What I did (at your own risk of course) was to boot into recovery mode. Then clear cache then did factory reset then restart. Worked but wipes all data. Then reboot and voilà it booted completely.

My phone was working just fine before I went to bed. I woke up this morning an my phone was stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy SIII" boot screen. I can't seem to get my phone back to a working state Here's what I've done so far:
I rebooted my device - didn't work.
I rebooted into recovery, wiped everything and installed clean rom 7 - no luck.
I've tried to ODIN back to stock and ODIN freezes immediately after it starts (for periods > 30 mins).
I've tried ODIN with two different USB cables.
Any idea on how I can get my phone back to a working state?
I am seeing the product name in download mode, so I don't suspect the "sudden death syndrome" that I've read about with the S3.

When you flash a new rom in recovery, what exactly happens? Does it completely finish, and when you reboot it gets stuck at the boot screen? Also have you tried restoring a backup?
You might have a bad rom download, but that doesn't explain why odin keeps failing. Try to do a factory reset without flashing anything and see if it'll boot up.

When installing the rom, it completes and reboots like normal. I've tried three different roms (and they've worked in the past) with no luck, so I don' think I have a bad download. Restoring a backup fails every time - I have multiple backups.
I've also done the factory reset - no go.

I'm pretty sure this is your problem.

This should fix everything. It sounds like a data writing issue.

Hi,
My HTC one mini has an unlocked bootloader, TWRP installed and S-off (i don't know if this will help)
I was trying to flash cyanogenmod 11 on my device via TWRP however it said that it had failed. Then when i rebooted my phone it showed the HTC logo but after a couple of seconds, the screen went black. Then the HTC logo popped up again, however, my phone had just booted back into my recovery.
I have tried to solve this by factory reseting however this did nothing, i have flashed a backup i had saved to my computer (that was saved by ROM manager) however there was no change, and i have switched off several times however i always end up in the TWRP recovery. I can boot into the bootloader but from there, i still can't get to the normal system.
This is a big problem as i can't find anything else on the internet that describes this problem and i think that my phone could be bricked. I can't access my apps or anything else. I don't think it is a bootloop as I can't even see the security screen and i don't have the option of entering my password which has happened in the past as it always goes straight to the recovery.
If anyone had any advice on what to do i would really appreciate it as I really need help!
Thanks
Seems you have no os loaded. I'm not sure why your backup does not work. I had an issue flashing cm11 originally, kept failing. Did you wipe data, cache and all and retry your backup again?

i have the same issue..
Ok, so for some reason when my phone ran out of juice today, it got stuck on boot screen and won't boot up when i plugged it back in. I've done battery pull, made sure the power button wasn't stuck, went into TWRP and cleared cache and dalvik cache but still when I reboot, I get stuck at the boot screen. I can get into recovery to maybe reinstall my last back up but is there anything I can do before I try that? Thanks!
Btw, I'm running carbon ROM. I believe the last stable release before kitkat ....I've been on it for a while now.

Never mind. Restored an older back up and its working but for some reason now, I've seem to lost root access. Totally weird. I have carbon ROM 4.2.2 running just as before. I installed superuser too. But for example, when I try to enter titanium backup, it says I don't have root permission. Also, superuser app says "su binary not found" then the box below it is checked "outdated binary notification".... Any thoughts or ideas on what I need to do to get root back? Thanks
