"Fastboot flash boot boot.img" make sure u type boot twice.
Do factory reset/wipe data and wipe cache. Flash rom. Reboot into bootloader. Fastboot flash boot boot.img. reboot phone. Then reboot back into recovery to flash gapps. Should work "
so did you already flash the (right) boot.img via fastboot?

If you haven't, extract the boot.img file from the .zip and place it where you have adb/fastboot (Android SDK). Then boot into bootloader, go into Fastboot, plug phone in for "Fastboot USB" then type the following in command prompt and reboot.
fastboot flash boot boot.img

ive tried all that boot.img from zip even another one with the download no luck just stuck on boot with that cm9 rom on loop thanks for your help though guys any other suggestions other then just shooting myself in the head??lol
Try flashing Paranoid/AOKP and then flashing back to CM9.
flash older cm9 rom?
this is my first attempt of any ROM for this phone starting with cm9 alpha 13 does anyone recomend maybe installing a older alpha?? maybe alpha 10 cm9?? idk
Try flashing the latest alpha 14. Maybe you got a bad download of alpha 13.
did you solve your problem?
if not & you're not quite shure about flashing the boot.img properly with fastboot I set up a Tutorial yesterday:
[Tutorial] How to flash a new boot.img via Fastboot
perhaps this might help you if the above one didn't fix your problems:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929
I had the same problem. But this worked for me.
wipe all -> flash cm9 14 -> wipe all -> flash gapps -> wipe all -> fastboot flash boot boot.img ( i used the touchfix one ).
then i got in.. but took some time first load. But now i cant get wifi to work and cant see simcontacts. Drives me nuts.
Just reflashed all with no luck.
I have successfully rooted my Verizon Nexus version 4.04 build IMM76K and tried to flash two different ROM’s one is "Vicious-TORO-JellyBean-V3-signed" and the other is "Team Liquid Vicious-Toro V3-JellyBean Fully 100% Functional Deodex". On both it seemed to install fine, no error messages. Then at reboot it booted past the Google logo to the ROM logo and never passed it. I waited for a minimum of 20 minutes until I pulled the Battery and flashed back to stock. Please help.
Did flashing back to stock solve the problem, is your device ok?
Before you flash a custom ROM, always try wiping the cache and wiping the dalvich cache. You then wipe data and do a factory reset. After that you THEN install the ROM, that might've caused the problem. Maybe, I am not sure.
Which clockworkmod did you use to try flashing the ROMs, please give us more detail!
I actually did exactly as you said. Wiped, factory reset, wipe cache and then dalvich. Pushed the ROM to the phone and then installed it.I have been useing Gnex Toolkit v1.7
And did it work or what?
Wiping user data/Factory reset is important after installing the Custom ROM.
There is a good way to fix all this, make sure you backup EVERYTHING, and when I say EVERYTHING I mean EVERYTHING (Photos, Videos, EVERYTHING).
USE FASTBOOT, I have mentioned this heaps of times, I have because it just WORKS. I bricked my device before, and I just used fastboot. Understand 2 things if you're going to use it...
1. It DELETES EVERYTHING
2. You need to have your STOCK ROM in fastboot format
If you're willing to use fastboot and have the proper stock files here's how to do it (From Nexus S post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445635):
I QUOTE: "Put all six fastboot images in one folder, unlock your bootloader, perform the fastboot flashes, then lock the bootloader:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
"
Cheers
Oh by the way I am not sure if the oem lock and unlock bit applies to you, check a relative guide to Galaxy Nexus please , this was an example
Hi, I have unrooted Nexus somehow its not booting up no just shoing google Logo. I can only enter in dast boot mode and bootloader is locked hence can not load a new rom to it. Tried to unlock the loaded but unable to do so. Used most of the tools in the forumn but sill no success. Its still not boots into android
Any help will be appritiated.
Can you enter recovery? Like stock recovery or clockworkmod. You should be able to.
If you have stock recovery navigate to it using bootloader, then to active the menu press both the power button and the volume keys ( sorry I don't know which one). Wipe data and factory reset. Select it. BUT THIS WILL CLEAR ALL DATA.
If you have clockworkmod again boot into it like above and select wipe data factory reset. This will not delete you data.
If you have TWRP you can for the same as clockworkmod. But go to menu "wipe" and select wipe data factory reset.
Hope this helps,
UselessSniper001
Have you tried Wug's Nexus Toolkit? There's an option in the program for this type of thing. It'll flash full stock on your phone but at least it'll be working again, and from there you can flash CWM and root the phone as usual.
It's in the Nexus S Android Development forum, sorry I can't post links yet since I don't have the 10 posts needs.

I am 101% sure that you are missing something while unlocking either the drivers or the fastboot files.
Otherwise nothing can stop you from unlocking. Finally when you unlock, flash the factory image via fastboot and then proceed again towards rooting and customs. :good:
can u please tell me what method you are using to unlock boot loader?
follow these steps:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
Hi there,
thanks to this forum I was able to flash several HTC phones sucessfully, but today I got perfectly stranded.
The original android version (jelly bean) of the Acer A700 was 4.1.1.
The plan was to get root access and put on CyanogenMod cm-10.1.0-RC5-a700.zip
Here is what I did:
- unlock the booloader (fastboot oem unlock)
- getting root access using easyroot.bat
I checked root access via "rootchecker" and everything appeared to be fine.
- Installing ClockWorkMod Recovery
- Under "recovery" I selected the A700 and also flashed the touch version of CWM
I opened up CWM and selected "reboot into recovery"
The A700 did was it was told and I got the usual CWM menue and could see the
desired cm-10.1.0-RC5 on my SD card
So far I was impressed how simple everything went and carried on flashing the CM10.1.
Before I did so I made a backup of the actual ROM on my SD card, then I selected
"wipe cache" an started the flashing process from the SD card.
Everything went fine and after a short time the rotating CyanogenMod Logo appeared.
However, the logo keeps on spinning an nothing else happens any more (20+ minutes)
I powered off the device and tried it again with the same result.
I also tried to press [power] + [vol -] to boot into recovery.
Letting go the [power] button and keeping the [vol-] button pressed after the device
vibrates for the first time brings up only "bootloader version JB365b3d3 (unlock mode)"
but the second line "loading recovery kernel image" does not appear anymore
In other words pressing the keys will show no difference to a normal start procedure.
When I connect the A400 with my PC and type in "adb devices" I get its number but the comment "offline"
In short, I have no idea what I could have done wrong nor how to access the device again
Is there someone out who can help me? - Thanks a lot in advance!
Comming from stock ROM, You must do Factory Reset / Wipe ALL to boot properly CM 10.1
About ADB, you must upgrade your Android SDK/ADB tools to the latest version, ADB changed a little with Android 4.2.2
With adb working, you can launch
adb reboot recovery
It should work, then make factory reset, and try to boot
Thanks a lot for the very fats response ... to be honest I thought, questions like mine are unlikely to be answered (oh no, not another dung-head who bricked his device)
However, I downloaded the latest adb version (dated 2013-05-22) and tried it again, but without success.
I can apply [pwr] + [vol-] ... [lock] to bring it into fastboot download mode.
At least the A700 shows the following lines:
Bootloader: Version JB-652b3d3 (unlock mode)
Bootloader: Version JB-652b3d3 (unlock mode) Starting Fastboot USB download protocol
Having achies this I tried to re-flash the initilally installed but now missing CWM
fastboot flash recovery root/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-a700.img
sending 'recovery' (5018 KB)...
OKAY[ 1. 326s]
wriiting 'recovery' ...
OKAY[ 1.154s]
finished. total time: 2.480s
fastboot erase cache
*** Did you mean to fastboot format this partition?
erasing 'cache'...
OKAY[ 0. 406s]
finished. total time: 0.406s
fastboot reboot
rebooting ...
finished. total time: 0.016s
Having done this I expected the CWM to be again on the A700, but when I start with [pwr] + [vol-] the A700 still does not boot into recovery.
Again I get this:
Bootloader: Version JB-652b3d3 (unlock mode)
followed by the nevern ending spinning CM10.1 logo ...
Without the adb running I'm pretty hopeless ... does a factory reset change anything at this stage?
You can try
fastboot boot root/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-a700.img
to go in recovery
and then in CWM
wipe all/factory reset
flash CM 10.1 again
flash gapps
reboot
We are ariborne, Sir!
Ereasing all partitions and flashing CWM again did the trick
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.2.3-a700.img
To be honest I don't understand why could not boot into recovery before?!
However all appears to be fine again!
Thanks a lot!
same problem
Hello, i have the same problem. I tried to flash CM with CWM but I didnt factory reset so my device is stuck. And i dont know anything about Sdk and Adb, can someone please explain to me how to do it
P.S: my bootloader was already unlocked so im very new to skd bull****, i dont know anything
2 hours I'm looking for a solution and this thead save my life
thanks for advises
the way I took is by the erasing all and fastboot boot recovery.img and after I install the last CM11 by the sdcard slot
Thanks a lot I can go to sleep
:good::good:

Hello! I've tried to root my phone (Moto G XT1541 Europe 1GB) but failed. I got an error when trying to flash the custom recovery. Unfortunately, it has overwritten the stock recovery and it didn't install. So, now I have a phone without recovery and I can't do a factory reset because of that (I think).
So, this is my question: how can I re install the default Android 6.0 recovery mode for my phone?
Also, my phone boots automatically on bootloader mode and I can't re-lock the bootloader because I can't flash anymore either; I got an error because the pre flash validation failed when trying to flash with adb fastboot, but this is minimal issues that doesn't really bother me, but they could be helpful and if someone knows how to get rid of them, I want to know!
I hope someone will help me!

The bootloader cannot be relocked in the Moto G 2015, the best you can do is hide the warning screen. Find the stock image and fastboot flash the recovery from there, or better yet, flash the entire image so you are in a known working state
If you are in Pre-Flash validation, you do not have the correct image for your device... I suggest you post in the "How to flash factory images" thread about returning to stock, if it is possible. You MUST factory default before flashing factory images, if you can't, try 'fastboot erase userdata' and try again.
Flash latest twrp via fastboot and reboot into recovery ,
don't reboot into system,
reboot into recovery manually, then you can enter twrp recovery and can flash supersu 2.62.3.
when you just reboot after flash twrp and reboot system erase custom recovery and save stock recovery, so don't enter fastboot reboot, enter fastboot reboot recovery after flash recovery via pc.
Rename twrp recovery as only twrp in fastboot folder in your pc , not as twrp.img,
But cmd as fastboot flash recovery twrp.img , then no errors ( are you unlocked bootloader ?)

Hey! Thank you! I've been able to flash the TWRP recovery and now I can do a factory reset (and also send sms, which I couldn't do anymore for some reason).
I still have the issue where the bootloader screen appears everytime I turn my phone on, and I still can't re lock my device because I can't flash anything either. I've recovered all of my data, so I think I'm going to stick with that for a moment but maybe I'll try what you said some day.
Again, really thank you for helping me!

Now I understand why my flashing TWRP did not take. I simply rebooted to system and still have stock recovery installed. I was successful booting twrp via fastboot and successfully flashed supersu 2.62.3. Is this step in listed in any faq? I must have missed it.
So after flashing TWRP, do you then power down device prior to manually booting to recovery?

Don't power down, already you are in fastboot mode, you can just enter recovery from that. I forget the reference, but i will search and post.
---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------
I get this from twrp official page
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
In our phone press simultaneously volume down + power button to enter recovery.
