[Q] ROM Problem : Stuck on boot logo

This is the story
I first installed Unlocked bootloader from asus, CWM recovery for tf300t, and then i used the update.zip to gain root access
I downloaded the CM nightly build, used CWM to backup, then flashed the CM ROM.
It was stuck on CM boot logo for about 30 min, so i restarted and cleared my cache.
I tried flashing again, and it was still stuck on boot.
I then restored to my backup, and now it is stuck on the original ASUS boot animation.
What do I do?

restore with cwm,ifyou can, to earlier version,working
then remove ClockWorkMod Recovery, by fastbooting TWRP instead...much more reliable (team win recovery)
then to root, theres a theres a batch script tool, that,when tablet is connected to pc, will run and reboot the tablet several times, rooting it.
ill look for the link, its in the forums here, debug,defug..something
there are other methods,that worked the best for me...
CM had been having issues, install CleanROM 2.1 HAS THE JB UPDATE V13 in it. its smooth

I have tried recovering with CWM, and restoring to factory settings.
Both didn't work.

I am having the same issue installing any ASOP roms on my tf300t.
I have the TWRP recovery, gained root by flashing.
I can install ASUS based roms like CleanROM fine, but I cannot flash any ASOP roms like CM10.
Just curious on what is preventing us from doing this. Especially when our devices are supposedly "unlocked" with custom recoveries and root.
If this device still continues to be this locked up, I might just have to sell mine when the GN2 comes out.

First declare your bootloader. Have you ever been on a jb-rom, stock or otherwise?
Looking at git for cm it appears the kernel is 2.6, so I would expect that is not a jb rom.
cwm has some issues on this unit.
get into cwm and use fastboot to flash twrp for the proper bootloader you have.
or get into fastboot by use of power and volume down
at that point you can twrp a rom into place; probably not to restore your backup as twrp and cwm have issues reading each others backups.
Good Luck!
Note: If you can power up and access recovery (cwm in your case) you are not bricked and should be able to recover. I have as well as many others. Take your time and go a step at a time! Make back ups and make sure you have fastboot and adb access to your unit! If you are still ics bootloader consider nvflash once you have this mess sorted.

This is a known problem... once u get the OTA asus jb update, u can no longer flash any aokp or cyanogen jb roms. This is due to the kernel in these roms which are based on ics but since uve installed new ota jb bootloader it will not work and get stuck on boot screen. Restore in recovery will not work either. U need to download latest asus firmware and flash it then fastboot a recovery (i recommend twrp) and reroot.

Ah, ok. I have the JB OTA update so i have the latest bootloader :/
I restored my nandroid of stock and it worked fine.
Just flashed CleanROM which is running great. Cant wait till the CM team gets the JB bootloader worked out as i have always loved being ASOP. Any info on when it might happen?

Stuck on boot animation.

Wondering if anybody else is having this problem? If I install a custom rom like cm11 unofficial I just get stuck on the boot animation. It happens on any custom rom I installed and I followed all instructions. Any ideas? Running 1034 16gb on kit kat.

Make sure your bootloader is unlocked and your device is rooted. In addition your recovery must be installed correctly.

I had this problem yesterday. Here is how I fixed it:
Install stock firmware. I installed a 4.4 one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Then rooted using superboot
Finally, I installed TWRP
It took like three tries to get superboot and twrp to work properly. That's how I fixed it. Goodluck

Had the same problem with a xt1032 retail.DE version, but didn't work.
I flashed the US umts4.4.2 version, was able to install root using superboot (at 2nd of 3rd try) and installed TWRP. Tried to Cm11 and gapps installed good, but still got stuck on bootanimation.
Losing faith here.

well this just happened on my phone again. the way I fixed it last time isn't working now I have no idea what to do

Why is no one helping with this issue. Ive experienced this a lot and I always have to restore it stock. I have never been able to install a custom ROM no matter how many times I root.

I have this issues also on 4.4 us global rom. Rooted and recovery cwm

There are two ways to get this fixed:
Fix permissions through TWPR recovery (not available on CWM recovery);
Restore to stock firmware (you can find 4.4.2 firmware here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49861244&postcount=101), flash CWM recovery (or TWRP) and flash CM11 again. This worked for me.
Let me know!

Can anyone confirm these methods? (at least the first one)
Done the 2nd multiple times, same result.

i have same problem , and don't know what to do ?
i flashed 3 different ROMs all stuck on bootanimation .

I'm curious. Did this happen the first time you flashed a rom? When I bought my Moto G (tesco version) it had 4.3 on it, I upgraded to 4.4 via OTA. Unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM for 4.4 kernel, made backup and flashed various CM builds, booted with no problems.
Now I restored to backup, because of the non-working GPS.
It stucks on CM (the flashed rom) boot screen or the bootloader warning screen?

After trying the second one 3 times, I used the TWRP/Fix Permissions method and successfully flashed CM11.

I got CM 11 to boot the first time on a dirty flash, but forgot to flash gapps, so got a load of FCs when it loaded up. Since then, any sort of flash, clean or dirty gives me a bootloop.
Even directly flashing boot.img via fastboot doesn't fix it. Reinstalling the stock firmware and starting from scratch doesn't do it either.

problem flashing roms on moto g xt1032

Hi, I'm new to flashing roms and after installing CWM 6.0.4.7 on my xt1032 and rooting whenever i try to flash a rom it gets stuck in the boot animation. I have tried CM 11 Carbon rom and paranoid android. I don't know if I'm using the wrong GAPPS or what. Please help.

Gapps are not the problem:the same thing was happening to me. The real problem is the bootloader: if you are on kitkat, you have to revert to stock jelly bean (4.3), install custom recovery (for JB), root and flash the custom rom you desire. That's the only way that worked for me.

I tried o revert to 4.3 but when flashing boot.img it said hab check failed for boot and now when i try to boot up it goes to the unlock booloader warning turns off and repeats. I can get back to fastboot but when i try to enter recovery it shows a broken android lying sideways. I think i bricked my phone. I really need help

Go back to Stock and start from Scratch.
As long as you can enter fastboot you should be fine.

I too have suffered with this problem, today i have done as above said, reflashed 4,3 but when i onstalled the cwm 4.3 version i still suffered the same problem, so i tried the cwm4.4 and hey presto, i now have cm11 on my phone, yee haaa

Try this,when you get to the broken android follow the instructions in the link below for "external reset" this will reset your phone.
https://motorola-global-portal.cust..._detail/a_id/97329/p/30,6720,9050/action/auth
if that fails just flash a stock 4.4 image with fastboot using one of the guides.

Yes thank you so much I'm back on 4.4.2 You guys are great

hello everyone
I have a question about PaulOBrien superboot root method (look in modaco forum the moto g root method 1).
I have a 16GB Moto G and updated to Kitkat via OTA.
yesterday I used the method 1 (superboot) on windows 7, to root my phone, and run it for the first time and ended on a black screen with green bars (supposedly normal). I power off the phone and turned on and load kitkat normally and noted that the phone was not rooted.
y tried the method for a second time and have the same results (ended on a black screen with green bars), but when kirkat launched, on the initial screen i saw a message "System UIDs Inconsistent. UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." and the system didn't respond.
I performed a factory reset via stock recobey and kitkat showed the same message but let me in the "i´m feeling lucky button" worked this time. there I noticed that my device was now rooted but non app was able to access the internal memory due to some r/w permissions as I think, because when I try to copy files to the phone via USB cable, I get have the same denial, even whit ADB push i get the same message of permissions denial.
I need a way to solve this because in this actual stage the phone works but the apps have like no access to the memory making them unusable,
for example i cannot take a picture, or download a file, for some reason all google apps not work or force close every time.
I need a way to upload a .img file to the phone in order to perform a recobery or to make a fresh install via fastboot, donn't know how to make the phone let me wrhite files on it. :crying:
(note: sorry for my bad English)

As long as you can enter the bootloader you haven't bricked anything!!! so don't you worry!
I have two questions: when did you download the stock rom, did you check the MD5 ??? Are you sure that it wasn't a bad download ?
Additionally: are you sure that you have downloaded the appropriate ROM? Did you try to flash any other ROM?

I am having the same issue. I got this xt1032 after it was OTA upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.2 and I downgraded it to KitKat 4.4.4 Stock. Now I'm also getting stuck on the boot animations on every Custom ROM I try to flash on it.
Does anyone know if having the bootloader upgraded due to the Lollipop update has anything to do with this? mine is at Ver. 41.18.
EDIT: I was finally able to flash after Formatting Data from Recovery. Keep in mind this will basically delete everything from the internal storage and you need to put everything back there manually. Always make sure you backup your info/apps/music/fotos before Formatting Data.

[Q] Please Help With Boot Loop after Updating/Rooting/Unlocking

So here is my problem. I was rooted on JB,and getting propmts to update to KK. After some research I found out that is it now rootable/unlockable, so I downloaded the .183 update and used RSD Lite to get on the update. That went well. Used towelroot and motoapocalypse to get rooted and unlocked. Also went well. Used Flashify to install TWRP. Well again. Heres where things fell apart. I booted into recovery to backup my stock ROM. After I did that I moved the backup to my SD card like an idiot not knowing it couldn't be restored from there. So I downloaded Validus 5.2 and Gapps. When I flashed them I was stuck in a boot loop on start up. Power down and tried again, still looping. Fastbooted to Recovery to restore my backup, but it was not there cuz it was only reading from internal storage (oops). So I was screwed. Then I read that CM had updated the modem or something and that you had to update stuff to use it. Still not sure about all that, but anyway. I thought maybe that was the problem, so I downloaded an older version of CarbonROM from June that was before the CM changes thinking I would be good now, but when I flashed it the same thing happened. Boot loop. So I went back into fastboot and flashed the RSD Lite stuff again. Rooted with towelroot. Unlocked with motoapocalypse. Verified status code 3 in fastboot. Verified root with Root Checker. Installed Flashify, but I haven't installed a recovery yet. Was TWRP my problem? Why am I boot looping on custom ROMs? Can someone help me out, or point out something Ive missed here?

You have to ensure the ROM you are using is built for the KK kernel. Not all ROMs work with the KK kernel.
Here is a list of ROMs that work with KK:

[Q] can anyone help? cant boot any rom. cant restore or create a backup.

its a first gen US boost mobile moto g xt1031. it is boot-loader unlocked and rooted. currently has twrp recovery and had cwm. i have never been able to flash any rom either from side-load or from internal or external sd. about a month ago i started having trouble restoring backups and now a few days ago it wont let me make a backup either. it gets stuck when it comes to restoring or backing up the data partition. beforehand i had no problems with backups. when i got the phone almost a year ago i didn't have any trouble boot-loader unlocking and rooting it. i am currently using lubuntu with the android sdk installed and my phone is recognized in adb and fastboot. i have been rooting and flashing android since my hd2 days and i never had this problem. i have tried several different boost moto g roms and none of them will boot. i just get boot loops. i have tried 4.4.2 4.4.4 and 5.0 roms. none will boot up. can anyone help me out with any ideas of whats wrong? debugging is on and again it is rooted boot-loader unlocked running twrp and recognized on my computer with adb and fastboot. thanks.

I am having the exact same issue. I first flashed BlissPop onto the device, and immediately ran into boot loops. I flashed a CM nightly for the 1031, same issue, and now even a stock rom does nothing but boot loops.

i have been trying to run cm since last july. im almost to the point that i dont even want this phone anymore. ive never had this problem with any other phone. i hope someone can help us. the only thing i can flash is recovery. but thats pretty much pointless since i can flash a rom or create or restore a backup. the old backup i have fails when it comes to date but it will boot. i just have to start from the beginning every time.

Yeah man, I've been through everything I typically do for rescues like this one, nothing has worked. Stock ROMs bootloop as well, which is just strange. I'm starting to think I killed the parition table on the phone itself.
