"starting services" does not stop...on boot up

Hi all , just joined xda-developers but i spend straight 14 hours trying to fix this DAMM photon q yesterday
all i got in the end is a normal boot after following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001108
BUT at the startup , the screen comes like for a millisecond and then this " starting services" logo doesn't go at all...it just continues forever
any help would be appreciate .

Can you explain what your setup is, and exactly what you've done to get where you are?
For example, you were bootloader official unlocked, on CWM and asa-10, etc.
Thanks.

bootloader is not qaulified for official unlock... and its my friends phone so he gave to me since he was unable to use it.. i thought i could give it life again.. so...i don't what esle info you want but i did EXACTLY what that thread told me to do... and still the that thing does not go ..

Still doesn't tell me what you've done, what state the phone is actually in, etc.
I thought my question was pretty straightforward. Unless you provide more detail, I don't know how anyone will be able to help you.
Is this a stolen device? Why is it not qualified for the official unlock? Either way, how does that play into what's wrong with the device?
Did you have custom recovery on it? Give some details!!!

i think i am a noob at explaining things but let me try again...i don't know the exact history of this phone , my friend gave it to me yesterday and its not stolen ... he paid his insurance every month but then who know what he did... i have no idea why its not qaulified for the official unlock probably because he bought a new phone on the same line so the company deactivated this phone..
ok so when i got the phone yesterday , the bootlocker logo appeared and i was unable to do anything ...then i installed CWMrecovery and it was successfull and then i installed every possible rom available online as far as i know but same thing happened with all of them ..... successfully installed , it reboots and little square thing saying " starting services..." and then it does not go away at all ... but at the same time i am able to bring the top menu ..and go to the settings and everything from there but i can't go to home screen since ...it is black and is occupied by "starting services.."
so finally i came accross this thread for master reboot and i followed it ....i installed TWRrecovery and made backup and then restored a backup providers by that guy ... i flashed new stock recovery after that... so following his thread , he told that if all went successful ... it will return to original stock
and now i am at the same screen as previous... " starting serivces..." my friend told me he tired to root it and he messed up really bad ..so i believe there is still some old files in the internal storage from previous rom versions.... but i deleted everything......wiped, data facotry reset and then
installed a clean backup provided by the thread starter...... and everyone else had success except me ...
i hope i answered your questions if not .. i would aprreciate if you tell me what exactly you want to know ..... thanks

i also tired every US ROMS from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/asanti_c/list.php
and all of them showed " starting services.." after i installed them from sdcard using CWMrecovery.

You have to extract the files and edit the xml file. And you use rsdlite on your pc phone connected thru usb to write it to the phone

Reactivate in Sprint? What do you mean? Only Sprint can tell you whether the phone can be activated or not. Call them. Not sure why you would even worry about that if it's not stolen.....

[Q] Stuck in bootloop.

Hi everyone.
I have the following problem with a Nexus 5: During an update, the system crashed. The phone is now stuck in an endless bootloop, trying to install the update. When left long enough, the update screens eventually come up, but you are immediately blasted with a ton of errors and no matter what you do, you are unable to complete the update. This, however, is not the problem.
I have tried various utilities in order to flash the phone back to factory settings. I have made use of Unified Android ToolKit, as well as Nexus Root Toolkit, but a problem with the phone itself is preventing me from flashing it and the problem is as follows: I can access the phone via USB, as well as the bootloader, but when I unlock the bootloader to start the flashing, it immediately locks itself again and I'm unable to start the flash process.
I've searched for other instances in which the bootloader won't unlock, but I can't find any information. Is there perhaps a hardware problem preventing me from unlocking the bootloader or can someone help me find a solution to this problem?

If the lock state reverts on a reboot, 99 times out of 100, it means the internal memory has an issue. RMA.

No probs. Sounds like the update got stuck at the bootloader flash and corrupted. It's probably not a fatal NAND issue, rather corrupt partition or two but it usually means sending it in.
You can try the LG flashtool as a last resort before doing so though, as you never know...
You can find a link to it in the sticky thread in my signature. Best to stay away from actual "toolkits" though and either use fastboot manually or LG flash tool, although fastboot probably cant help you here - just saying for future ref...

Can anyone suggest some steps for me to try before I RMA the phone? Although, being unable to unlock the bootloader probably limits my options.

I was stuck in the boot animation and when it opened there was a lot of system errors and it would reboot by itself over and over again.
what fixed it was to do a wipe cache and dalvik and reinstall it

I tried the 'wipe cache' as well, but it returns a bunch of errors as well. I'm starting to think the NAND is screwed. What is dalvik?

Dalvik cannot break your bootloader. Your only option was use lg flashtool and if that failed, RMA. Let's not get false hopes and waste time not doing this.

i thought about LG FLASHTOOL but decided to try reinstaling the rom cuz i had no other option since i forgot to leave a backup rom on the device. So I did it as if I was installing a brand new rom Wiped dalvik, cache and system then reflashed the rom and then the gapps. Even tho it was the same ROM file I had a different outcome. It's working fine now but I did go back to the nightlies after it started working again just to be safe.
Now... people may have a different outcome when trying to solve this issue but this actually worked for me after having a minor heart-attack thinking I was gonna lose all my stuff

Yes, but your issue is different to the OP's. His bootloader lock state reverts whenever he changes it. This is a pretty much "fatal" issue. What you did cannot help him unfortunately.

Unable to Wipe Data since CM13

Hey ! First of all excuse my english I'll do my best.
I flashed CM13 to test it. To do that I flashed the TWRP you can find in CM's thread and just after I wiped the data because without that you're unable to wipe cache/dalvik/system. After the flash everything was right except for some reasons in my opinion this rom wasn't smooth enough so I wanted to go back to EMUI (damn EMUI never thought i could want to go back to this again).
To do that I flashed The "normal" TWRP and tryed to wipe my data. It was impossible. Si I tryed to restore my nandroid, impossible too. Some errors messages.
So I flashed the CM's TWRP and was finally able to wipe my data and restore my EMUI nandroid. After that I tryed to flash again the "normal" TWRP and take a look at the wipe options to see if I was able to wipe data or dalvik or whatever but the same errors messages came to my face.
Is there a way to fix the wipe of my TWRP without rollback to stock and root again ?
I hope I was clear, my english really sucks.
Thank you guys.

seams he's not good enough to get that so I'll explain more !
for some reason or flashing roms u' might get some errors while flashing roms or trying to wipe data ! ..
restoring ur nandroid sometimes need to be restored throw the same recovery but for some binary errors while restoring or for some reason it wont !
I recommended to do the following :
Use the full restoration method to get back into stock fresh . ( to do that all u need is : download fresh rom from official EMUI website then send it to SD card , put it into ur phone , make sure its off , press volume Up+Down+Power for 3 seconds or 4 then will start getting back ur original Software ) if u got fail might be for some reason of a kernel so u'll need to do the ADB Method will be later if fail only .
now after getting back to stock install TWRP again and make nandroid restore only for data without system and cach and delvik
u must get all ur phone back as will but the restoration should be only above same rom version and custom number .
GD Luck ..

Thank you for the "not good enough" man I'm flashing roms since 2009, I had a lot of phones and a lot of way to flash roms. My english sucks, not me.
I know how to erase the recovery but I already try to flash different recovery, it's obvious for me that my problem is here because of the encryption missing of the DATA partition who have been erase by the CM's TWRP. I try to find a way to fix the encryption without get back to stock because it's a pain in my ass and if I can do another way I'll be happy. I hate come back to stock, it's a waste of time to come back to all tweaks I made on my actual rom.
But if I have to come back to stock I'll do it.
I'm use to work with phones more open than Honor so I'm a little disapointed about all the pain devs have with this phone.
Thanks for your help anyway. Oh and yes, I can be wrong about encryption but I don't think so.
Much love.

Dead Mother's locked Velvet

I searched the forum for this and maybe I missed something but I can't find help anywhere.
My mother recently passed and we're trying to crack open her LG Velvet. She was very secretive about passwords and such and I can't break passed her finger pattern lock screen. Everything I've found says I can wipe her phone clean and it'll be clear but we need in to access her information and photos, we don't know what details she kept on her phone so we desperately need in. Does anyone know a way we can get passed the lock screen without erasing data? We've tried 55 times all the patterns we think she used but it's so far to no avail. We have T-Mobile, of which I called. They can't help so they sent me to LG and they can't help.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

Id u can get an custom recovery installed on that go to /Data/system/ and erase all files with lockscreen name on it and it would remove the pattern
