This just started yesterday and i cant stop it. My phone reboots and says that memory is nearly full, then goes into a bootloop. I cant stop it long enough to back up texts, phone contacts and call log which is REALLY important; is there a way to back that up through recovery?
i'm really desperate here!
Edit: I can get the phone working through a format, but i need to be able to get contacts and sms backed up
Alternitavely, is there a way to run a clockword mod backup on an android emulator on my comp, so i can back up my important stuff?
what you should try doing is putting your sd card directly into your computer and delete stuff you don't need to get back so memory and then once you do that out it back into your phone
i cleared up the memory, internal and external. the stupid ROM is still broken
if its just the rom go to a different one and redownload mikrom later to make sure nothing happened in the initial download
If you haven't already, try removing some apps through adb, then reflash the ROM only wiping dalvik and cache. You shouldn't lose any of your text, call logs or contacts if you don't wipe data.

I love it sooooo the rom isnt stupid, the team of developers supporting it are amazing and you should setup adb and get a logcat, also you should nandroid before you flash so in case it goes wrong you can flash back, like insurance but you actually get something from this without paying..
if you did nandroid boot into bootloader and select recovery (hold volume down and power on use volume button to highlight recovery and power button to select)
I'm not sure if mikrom wipes or not but there's always that advanced restore option in cwm recovery flash rom, restore data and sd-ext if you have a ext partition with important data on it.

thanks I always do a nandroid backup before doing a format; doesnt help. I can load the clean rom just fine, but when i restore, it goes into bootloop again....

If nothing else, like Jkilo said, provide a logcat and maybe someone could take a look.
Did you ever get this fixed?
The usual way of fixing this is formatting /system, wiping dalvik, wiping cache, and reflashing the rom.

no. what i did was a backup, complete factory reset, wipe, dalvik wipe, etc - several times each, including a full on sd-card format, which took me hours to reload everything back on - and then reflashed MikShift. It worked fine for about a day, but then it started to go into bootloops again, so i again did a backup, full reset and all wipes, and restored data only to the new flash of mikshift. Once again its bootlooping.
LOG: ive been off the forums for several months, how do i get this log?
IMAGE: When i go into bootloader and enter recovery, it shows me a message in green text
"PG06diag.zip
No image!
PG06diag.nbh
No image or wrong image!
PG06img.zip
No image!
PG06img.nbh
No image or wrong image!"
At this point, im ready to RUU back to factory unrooted, so i can take it back to sprint and get it replaced.
I should not need to reflash the ROM every single day.

OK
0) Run a backup with titanium backup.
1) First of all go to clockwork -> mounts storage -> FORMAT /SYSTEM.
2) Wipe /cache, wipe dalvik, wipe/data, factory reset, repartition sd card.
3) Redownload the rom or try a proven ROM like UKE or CM7-255. If AOSP MAKE SURE TO FLASH GAPPS.
NO NEED TO RUU.
4) DO NOT RESTORE YOUR BACK UP. See how stable the phone runs.
5) If the phone is still unstable try a different battery.
6) Do not flash a custom kernel.
i formatted my backup SD card, and copied the essential data to it, and i have it running in the phone now. it seems to be running fine so far, i suspect the other SD may have gotten corrupt or physically damaged
Vic: every single time this has happened, i first went to clear the data and dalvik caches and ran a factory reset, all through the CWM recovery interface. Then when i reinstall mikshift, i restore the data using advanced restore, wait 24-48 hours, bootloops start all over again.
after two days of running on the new sd card, i start getting bootloops again. it must be a problem with the phone or the OS, but at this point i dont care anymore.
Is there a guide to RUU back to stock unroot? this phone is going back to sprint by weeks end, period.
thanks for the help folks.

Here's the 2.2 RUU zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971550 Just put it on the root of sd, boot in hboot and let it do its thing.
Or you can run the RUU exe, just download and run from your pc. It's pretty self explanatory http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335068

The problem is you didn't format /system.
Redownload the Rom. Then follow THIS GUIDE when you flash.

Yeah that guide is great for flashing sense roms since "most" sense roms don't format/wipe the system partition correctly. Aosp roms you just do a data facotry wipe and everything installs just fine
Hey guys I am running into a problem after I flash CM10 to my GSIII, It flashes fine (rooted, unlocked bootloader, using CWM) up until I try to boot at which it gets stuck on the boot animation where it just runs for what i assume to be forever, I gave up after 10 min the 3 times I tried. Is anyone else having this problem or have any idea how to fix it.
Thanks in advance
I would try two things, first be sure you cleared everything (dalvik cache, factory reset, clear cache) in CWM, and if you're still having problems try the "fix permissions" option in CWM.
happened to me earlier, I wiped cache, dalvik, factory reset, and flashed again, and it worked
LKJ
Derp, it was the factory reset, i had always been clearing the catches so i dont know why it didnt occur to me to do the reset, but thanks a bunch guys

Has anyone had issues with ROMS showing "failed" in TWRP, or just locking CWM up and requiring a battery pull? I have checked the MD5 and they always match. I have also flashed a ROM, tried something else, and when I try to reflash the original ROM again, suddenly it won't work and I get the failed message.
I always wipe system, cache, dalvik and format system between flashes. Thankfully I am able to restore a backup when this happens
Thanks

Been running CM10 and CWM 6.0.1.9 for ages with no issues and loving it. Yesterday morning (while on vacation) picked up the tab from charging and it was boot looping. Tried formatting cache and Dalvik cache as 1st attempt to fix and it reboots when trying to format Dalvik cache, regular Cache deletes just fine. Next reflashed CM10, but still boot loops. Started manually formatting partitions and when I get to Data it reboots.
So this sounds like Brick Bug, but shouldn't be since I'm on CM10/CWM6.0.1.9 and wasn't wiping when it occurred.
So questions for the braintrust...
1) Is there anything I can do to fix this while on vacation when the only PC I can access is Windows RT? Basically it needs to be something I can flash with CMW.
2) Assuming #1 isn't possible, my next step was to try flashing a stock rom when I get back home. Make sense or other thoughts?
Thanks,
Todd
try removing your ext sd card and boot it up. See if that helps. If not, I'd Odin the stock ROM
I have experienced this too. My fix was to delete data after reflashing CM10. I tried just clearing cache and dalvik like you did but it continued to boot loop. So I flashed CM10 because I was at school and it was all I have but it was still stuck and so I cleared data at CWM(Didn't flash CM10 again anymore). And yeah, it pretty much deleted everything, but I had a backup at home. It was fixed.

Thanks. Formatting data causes a reboot, so I think I'm stuck until I get back home and can use Odin.

[SOLVED] [Q] [P6210]Boot Looping and Corrupt Data Partition
For the sake of the archives...reflashing stock Honeycome fixed the partition problem and allowed me to re-install CM10.
