Device keeps rebooting at android setup - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys so im in a rough situation, I turned on my phone and randomly got a message same something like: CM loader could not be run/loaded and wouldnt let me do anything on the phone. So i decided to wipe the phone and install a custom rom. Now when i get into the setup screen after 3 seconds the phone reboots. This continues to happen till i hold the power button down and turn device off. Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help is appreciated!

have you tried to just do a complete wipe and reflash the rom after the problem persisted?

yeah i did with a different rom too, still same thing

And you did a full wipe (system/data/cache/dalvik cache) before flashing?
Transmitted via Bacon

found the problem! i didnt check usb debugging when installing the rom. used this guide to help me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/stuck-bootloop-dont-usb-debugging-t2920564

Help! Can't format my Xoom.

Hello there, I have a huge issue with my Motorola Xoom.
I ran the #156 TeamEOS 4.2 Nightly Rom for my European 3G Xoom when all of a sudden my tablet started acting really weird.
Apps were crashing, Google Play wasn't working, Browser as well, and so on.
I decided to do a hard reset, formatting cache, Dalvik Cache, Hard Reset...but nothing was cancelled. As soon as i rebooted my device, everything was back the way it was with the same issues. I noticed my tablet was costantly updating the same apps and even if I updated them the following reboot they were back re-updating themselves.
I have no idea what to do, I tried everything, including RSD Lite. Nothing.
Can somebody help me figuring out what to do and how to at least format my Xoom completely so that I can re-install my rom and then re-install the apps?
Thanks.
I would boot into recovery and do a full wipe the reflash the rom a gapps. you should be good to go.
No can do, sorry. What's weird is that even when I go to change the performance settings on the rom, to overclock it more or less, the changes are not recorded. I can set whatever I want but it doesn't change it. It's like the tablet is in a loop, always stuck doing the same things, charging the same rom, the same settings. I really don't know what to do, I don't want to throw it away but I don't know how to solve it.
Which xoom do you have? We can always flash the stock img with fastboot to restore it. It will be back to complete stock.
Can you get into recovery at all by powering off then press the power button wait till 3 sec's after the logo appears and press volume down. You will see android recovery at the top press vol up to select. If you can and you have a backup restore it. If you use an external sd card you can load a rom on to it and flash it in recovery.

this is the same exact problem i'm having. I cannot get my xoom to reset. It always goes back to where it was before.

Sounds like your data has gotten corrupted somehow. You can take the boot.img out of whatever Custom ROM ur using, and via terminal -
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
I'm not using any custom roms. I'm using factory settings for almost everything.... also i don't know how to use terminal

I have the same problem.
The Xoom is a european with android 3.1 kernel version 2.6.36 and build H.6.3-25-9 <- this i dont understand but i think that is no correct.
I try flash the H.6.1-38-1_Retail_Europe version, all the process finish ok, but when i restart the tablet everything continues as before.
I not know what else to do, Heeeelp.

[Q] Restart loop(not bootloop) - really weird

Hey lads,
I got a really weird problem and I've tried nearly everything I can think of. I had EMUI 2.3(b121sp06) and I tried the online OTA update to b307 if I remember right(was automatically suggesting the update) and at the update screen it loaded to about 99% and then stopped. Said not to press power while on this screen but obviously it wasn't going to finish. So I reset the phone and it started the "recovery loop", so basically keep trying to apply the update. I had to flash CWM to break out and flashed the whole system by hand(recovery,system,boot,cache,cust and userdata img files) and it starts up but it keeps resetting and seemingly it's random. Android boots up, I don't touch the phone--> boom reset. Weird thing is it even does it in recovery.
If I really want to explain the problem it's like as if my finger got stuck on the power button(that naturally made me think that the button might be f*cked), but booting into fastboot and not having resets cleared my suspicion. What I also noticed is that every time it boots up it doesn't recognize the sim card and I have no signal or whatsoever.
Tried multi tool unbricking method -> doesn't work
Tried factory reset from stock recovery(had to be fast so it doesn't reset before) ->doesn't work
Tried wiping dalvik cache and factory reset from CWM ->doesn't work
Tried killing battery by letting it keep resetting -> battery drained, reset loop stopped ->put the phone on charger->reset loop started again
I have no f*cking clue how can I get out of this, will keep trying though. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Hi
Did you try to remove the Sd Card ? Honor 6 reboot is often due to faulty SD Card.
Which model do you have ? L04 ?
B307 upgrade sure ?
Seb
Yes, that was my first idea, still does it though. I have the L02 and I'm not positive it was b307, but it started with 3, could be b303 if there is one.
I don't know for L02 but for L04 there is a Full ROM that you can flash with the three buttons method. (Vol+,Vol-, power and put the ROM in /dload folder on the SD card).
Maybe there is such thing for L02 ?
There is, but as I said the phone restarts even in recovery. It's like the phone restarts every 30 secs except for fastboot.
if it's not SD card or internal flash problem so, it seems to be hardware related to me (
Would make sense but it occurred only after I tried OTA. Would be really surprised if that killed that hardware :-/

Its might be a battery problem Or power flex cable. Try to turn on the phone during charge
guys im facing the same problem now... waiting for any solutions
I have tried stop & uninstall some app
I've tried as quickly as I can when the phone (nokia x) is on, then I stop> uninstall I consider potentially cause this problem (facebook, whatsapp, uc browser) and then it managed to prevent the continuous restarts. but problems arise even though the application had me uninstall and then I restart the phone. and it is back again, I uninstalled the app that has remained with the error settings and restart repeatedly. who knows what else : '(

In the past my battery lost it's endurance pretty much. Furthermore I've read that a defective battery causes lots of weird behaviours on our Honor 6, which was the same to mine.
In my case a replacement of the battery worked well, to get my Honor 6 back to life:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceyzXavxFAw
It's not that difficult and lasts approx. 30-45 mins. Spare Batteries are available for 6 - 10 bucks on ebay or directly from the chinese internet stores.

Nexus 5 not starting

Urgent help reqd
randomly my nexus 5 restarted
google came on screen and now only those four animated circles are showing up and the phone doesnt go further
went in bootloader but cant wipe cache, cant format, or anything else from there.
usb debuggng must be off as far as i remember
trying to flash through sdk manager. have downloaded image. but stops at "waiting for device" in cmd and it doesnt go any further than that. even tried doing it manually through cmd.
when the phone is connected it is showing the drivers but it isnt installng and can see the yellow exclamation.
manually downloaded the drivers and tried installing manually but shows drivers are up to date.
uninstalled driver and reinstalled but same issue. it is connected to usb 2.0.
now how do i get it to work?
I have tried all the options i could search for on this forum but none of them solved my issue.
Is the bootloader unlocked?
How do i check that?
Ok got it
It is locked
How do i unlock?
I checked some unlocking bootloader threads but they all require usb debugging to be on.
My phone is not starting at all so i cannot do that
How do i go about it now
Tried nexus root toolkit. It isnt detecting the device.
Unlocking will wipe you device.
Google themselves have a guide on how to flash, not sure why you are using toolkits.
Also, you will wipe your device, if you haven't already. Make sure you have the right drivers, make sure you get the device to come up under "fastboot devices"
Already tried all methods mentioned by google or xda.
If you read my initial post my phone is not getting detected as well but shows installing drivers when connected but the installation fails.
Manually install the correct drivers.
Tried that but i get the error that you already have latest drivers. But its not detecting the phone
Try removing the drivers and reinstalling
Also, try different USB ports and cables.
Did all of that a number of times. Still no luck
Other phones are getting connected and detected just fine.

Hi all, i have a similar problem
this morning my n5 boots into "optimizing apps", but stops when reach around 15/20 apps and reboot (3 or 4 times)...
Now, only keeps in android animation like useruser12.
I can see my data in TWRP, battery 95%...
I wipe cache/dalvik... nothing
I reflash the kernel (ElementalX 6.17), still nothing
Any ideas?
PS: latest news. After make a backup, I made a factory reset and restore a system-boot-cache partition from old backup. Now the phone boots but i hate lose all my data xD. I want try to solve my problem using my "corrupted" backup for avoid losing data. If that fails, I can always restore this functional backup. Any ideas again?
Used the nexus root toolkit.managed to unlock bootloader but immediately the device reboots and goes into the bootloop again.
Tried the flash stock + unroot function as well which detected my factory image and everything went smooth till it came back to unlocking the bootloader and rebooting the device after that and again went into the bootloop
Though i have installed the drivers, on reboot windows 7 automatically starts installing the mtp usb device driver but fails. Manually downloaded the drivers and installed as well.
Still its not worked and whatever i do it comes back and get stuck at the bootloop.
Any expert can give a solution? Thanks
After unlocking the bootloader, does the bootloader relock when the phone is rebooted? If it does, the memory chip is defective.
Phone doesnt reboot completely.goes into a loop after the google logo and doesnt go further.
If i switch off the phone midway here without it booting up and then restart the bootloader then its locked again.
But what i read was that the process of complete reboot needs to finish and i need to turn on usb debugging. So is it because of that the bootloader locks again?
Anyways, this what im facing

Lucky that you could do a factory reset. I wasnt even able to do that from the bootloader.

Sorry, i did it via TWRP.
If the bootloader relocks itself upon reboot, it's the memory chip that is damaged.

One PlusOne recovery loop- Help needed

Hello, I need serious help with my phone.
So, after a long while of having my phone rooted, and had a case of boot loop with twrp, I decided to go back to stock os and hung up the root days. I thought i did it right by getting a stock os and flashed it, and it worked for couple months, until yesterday.
My phone keeps going into Cyanogen Recovery, I tried rebooting so many times, once it did boot up to OS, but it went back after i restarted phone or it died.
Now I can't no longer get back, I thought factory resetting will work but it didn't. (Tried both wipe cache partition and Full factory reset option from the recovery) I found unroot your phone toolkits, thinking it could help fix my problem and just unroot/ give me back to OS (I wished i found this before flashing that custom stock rom).
But the toolkit doesn't work for me, it finds adb devices, but it cant find fast boot devices, because my phone cant even go into fast boot.
I tried manual, and the option from the recovery, it keeps going back to recovery. I have an option for apply update, and then apply from ADB, that was the only way for my pc to recognize my phone from adb devices. Any clues on how to fix?

Will try, Ill respond back if anything happens!
Hmm I'm still having trouble because, I can't get into fast boot for some reason. It's keep going back to Cyanogen recovery. It has the option to reload into bootloader, but goes into cyanogen recovery again.
There is an option in dev options, uncheck the "update cyanogen recovery" and flash twrp again

Boot into Recovery.
Turn your device off and press Power + Volume Down simultaneously for 5-7 seconds-ish and then select 'Recovery.'
Try connecting the device to your computer after it has booted into recovery. You may be able to access your files from the computer and copy/paste anything you need.
First, I would try wiping dalvik cache / cache NOT DATA!
Or If you manage to copy and paste everything you want to keep from here, I would then recommend factory resetting the device which you should be able to do from Recovery also. THIS WILL REMOVE ALL DATA. Do not do this if you haven't copied all the data you need onto your computer.
edit: Here's a video with instructions on how to get into recovery mode, wipe the cache or factory reset from recovery. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ax2DdQZVBQ

Seems like your Android Installation is corrupt. At this point it may not be possible to recover data. You might need to do a clean flash using fastboot to flash stock ROM in order to turn of the phone.
