I cannot get a ROM to stick, after one reboot it gets stuck on the boot logo. I have looked through all of the forums and have done this step by step. I have an unlocked bootloader. RSD lite back to stock with success, then root, then install latest TWRP. Nandroid backup then format data, then install ROM. When I reboot it gets stuck on boot logo. This happened ever since I installed CM 10.2, but I really want to install another ROM. I am not sure there is anything else I can do. Can anyone help me?
Nevermind, all is well, the first boot just took 15 minutes or so, which seems a bit long but fixed nevertheless.
There's a fsck (disk check) process that runs and sometimes takes quite a long time. Many have had this issue, patience is a virtue. So are proper thread titles...

So I have already flashed this ROM by following the procedures asked by the DEV. I used TWRP insted of CWM as it was recommended but for some odd reason whenever I do choose to install what I want instead of the DEV's picks, it doesn't let me get out of boot. It seems that it gets stuck on a boot loop after the reboot and the installation.
The boot seems to last longer than the 10 - 15 min the DEV has listed. It even goes up to 30 minutes.
Does anyone know what the problem? Should I wait for the boot even if it passes well over 45 minutes? :/
And I wipe my system the exact way on recovery mode which is why I'm wondering why it gets stuck on a loop after installation reboot.
I have tried the DEV's pick and it is amazing but I do want to try other things as well. I am running the hyperdrive rom (dev's pick installation) right now.
Hello guys.
I apologize for making yet another "my phone is soft-bricked" thread, but I have been through at least 20-25 of the other threads, seemingly tried everything, and I can't get past my problem. Also, most of the other threads I saw are pretty old and not really active anymore. A few of the tools there can't even be downloaded anymore because the links are dead.
Anyway, here's my story.
I have a 16 GB US retail XT1032 that I bought mostly to give tech support to my parents, whom I also bought a 8GB each. Theirs, I left untouched. Mine, I unlocked bootloader and rooted right away. All went well for a long time.
My parents kept receiving OTA's and it took them all the way to Lollipop. Me being rooted, I got stuck in KitKat somewhere (I'm not 100% sure whether that was in 4.4.2 or 4.4.4), but since it wasn't my daily driver, I let it lie as stock rooted KitKat. Recently I wanted to go to Lollipop in order to keep seeing "the same things" as my parents, and I installed TWRP in preparation to flash a "stock enhanced" version of Lollipop. TWRP flashed fine but there was something funny all along: I could use ADB or a root app to boot into recovery from the ROM, but I could never manage to get the phone to go into recovery by booting into fastboot (vol down+power) and then choosing recovery. Screen would go black and recovery would never load.
So I copied a "stock" Lollipop image and booted into TWRP from the ROM and wiped everything and tried flashing the Lollipop ROM. It got stuck somewhere part way, and a few hours later there was no more progress.
Ever since then, I am stuck in fastboot. Fastboot seemingly works correctly, recently I was able to flash an OG animation to get rid of the nasty "your bootloader is unlocked" warning. I can flash recoveries (TWRP and/or CWM) without error on the phone or the computer, but when I try to then boot into recovery using the bootloader, I get stuck on the black screen and go nowhere.
As others in the various threads have commented, when I try to boot "normally", I get the boot animation and a vibration and then it gets stuck.
I have tried so many things by reading different threads I couldn't tell you anymore what all of them were. I've gotten errors about downgrading, I've gotten stuck in fastboot reason: "failed flash", I've gotten flashing errors about the size of recovery or boot or gpt. What I've never managed to do again is to boot into anything other than bootloader. No recovery and no ROM.
Could someone with a bit of experience please point me to some working links and/or when you have the time, help me look at a couple of logs or something that can help me figure out where my problem lies and how to get out of it? my daily driver phablet died a gruesome death and I wanted to go back to my trusty moto g, to no avail.
Thank you very much to whomever can help.
Ruben.
Try to reflash full stock firmware for your device according to your bootloader version. Hope it helps....
Try typing in fastboot devices
I have an original Nvidia tablet which hasn't been killed by the kill switch yet. So I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP into recovery and installed Lineage and some other ROMs. But all ROMs are stuck in the boot process when it shows the NVIDIA logo. Any ideas what could be wrong? Did I miss something for the installation process?
First boot can take ~10min, how long did you wait?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I was waiting more than 10 minutes. I guess it must be something different. I am not sure what I did do wrong.
Hello there ! I'm in the same situation here...
Try to update my rom with a new one. (rooted my shield during the killswitch event)
What i did : update the recovery, dl a rom and open gapps. Then instal them with the nomoreota.zip
(i did not perform a factory reset before...)
I waited the 10 minutes and was still on the nvidia logo.
So... Back to recovery : factory reset, wipe cache, data...
Abd push new roms and opengapps and still stuck on the logo (i wait the 10 minutes everytime)
If anyone have a solution, it would be great

Just to let you know that the post" [HELP] return to stock by manigault" help me to re instal my shield tablet. So if anyone have an issue like this, try this post.
Beware, if no back up, all your data will be lost.

Now I have the boot loop while charging... :crying:
Meaning that when I charge my phone, it reboot autom. and... We're stuck...
Hello.
First of all, i'm sorry if this question have been asked before. Believe me, i've tried searching even through Google's 2nd page but still no luck in finding answer.
I had a OPO 64GB version. It was working fine until i decided to do ROM update. My previous working ROM is "CM13-20160812-somethingsomething-SNAPSHOT.zip". It is rooted with Xposed installed
I tried to update it using TWRP. the update is "CM13-20161216-somethingsomething-SNAPSHOT.zip". It got stuck at "Patching system image unconditianally"(probably wrong spelling there) for more than one hour. So, i decided to force reboot it and it is now stuck at boot logo(not bootanimation)
Thing is, i cant get it into fastboot, nor recovery. it just stuck there and i've tried to Power Cycle but still no result. I tried to plug it into my computer and it does detect it in "Device Manager" under "Portable Devices" with name "A0001".
I wonder if it soft brick or hard brick. I'm asking brilliant mind in here, if there's a way to restore it. I just revived it from broken screen since 2016(talk about bad luck) and i don't want to completely replace as the device is still in good condition.
Also, if there's no other choice then i had no other way than to follow this guide here, which completely unbrick my phone(also losing me 30+ apps)

Nevermind. i got it to work by installing QPST driver. for some reason it enable adb at boot logo(yes at boot logo). got into recovery and recover my system partition(which is broken).
I ask the mod to delete this thread. Thank you
Hey. Not sure if I'm asking for help in the right place. I'm new and I made this account because I'm getting kind of desperate, so I'm sorry in advance if I'm posting in the wrong place.
I just installed TWRP onto my Samsung Galaxy J5 2017. I thought it all went pretty well until I tried to reboot it after checking out the custom recovery only for it to be stuck in a boot loop. The regular J5 logo comes up, then the screen goes black, then the logo comes back up and so on. I am still able to go into recovery and download modes and I've tried using the TWRP recovery to wipe and format all data, but to no avail.
Upon some researching, it seems that flashing the official firmware using Odin is one possible fix, and I am currently downloading it from Updato, though it is a slow download and it will take all night. Even so, once it's ready, I'm not entirely sure how to flash it or whether I need any extra files to make it work, since I haven't been able to find any guides for this phone specifically.
If anyone could confirm that I'm going down the right route and guide me through it, or suggest some other, more effective, fix, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Mayo
Well, I flashed Magisk and that seems to have fixed it
