[Q] Wifi XOOM 3.2 boot loop help!

First off, I have done a search and read dozens of threads, none of which solved my problem...
I have a wifi xoom, which I rooted many months ago without any problems. Recently updated to 3.2 like a month ago or so. I have not made ANY changes within the last month, and the tablet has been working perfectly.
A few days ago, I left the tablet to charge. Once charging was complete, I turned it on and its stuck on the boot animation. I just keeps playing over and over again, I've let it sit for 10+ minutes, with nothing happening...
I tried removing the SD card then rebooting, and its the same result....
Please help! If need be, I can go back and look up all the exact steps I've done to root and get it to where it is today. Like I said though, it has been working perfectly, and I have not made any new changes in at least a month... I don't see why this would happen all of a sudden...

Have you tried to reinstall firmware?
Regards.

No need to panic.
When you rooted, did you install CWM Recovery, and if so, do you have a recent nandroid backup? Have you tried rebooting into recovery?
What steps have you followed to get out of your bootloop?

Yes, I have Clockword Mod Recovery 3.2.0.0 R4c 100611-1150
Upon attempting a restore everything appears to work properly until the end when it gets to restoring data, I get an error, regardless of which restore image I use(I tried all the ones I have). It reads as follows:
"Restoring data...
Error removing /data/data/com.noshufou.android.su/cacheError while formatting /data!"
I also attempted a clean wipe/factory reset with similar unsuccessful results. I get an error during formatting data, which reads:
"Formatting /data...
Error removing /data/data/com.noshufou.android.su/cacheFormatting /cache..."
The rest of the formatting appears to run successful for /sd-ext and /sdcard

Have you manually tried to format the system, cache and data? This can be done from the advanced menu.

Can you please provide me with more detailed instructions?
From the advanced menu I see:
Reboot Recovery
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe Battery Stats
Report Error
Key Test
Partition SD Card
Fix Permissions

Sorry, we're forgot talking about Cwm. It's under mounts and storage.

Still the same result as before... I went to mounts and storage > format /data
"Formatting /data...
Error removing /data/data/com.noshufou.android.su/cacheError formatting /data!"

Try format system first then data and cache.

My suggestion would be to go back to stock and then re-root. You can find the stock download on the Moto Dev home page.

+1. Restocking link. MOTODEV > Produ / Software http:/.ly/sQtpKQ bit cts > Device. Then use universal root method reroot.

Thanks everyone! I was hoping I would be able to fix it without going back to stock, but since I was unable to I just went that route.
Going stock worked, and I am back to where I was before, so thank you for the advice! In case anyone else may have this problem, this is what I did:
Went back to stock using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049485
Then rooted using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242241
Then got back to 3.2.1 using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278214

[Q] Nexus 5 stuck at flying dots. Any pointers where to proceed.

Hi Guys,
I was playing Clash of Clans on my Nexus 5 when my phone ran out of battery. I charged & switched on, from there my phone was stuck at flying dots. What I tried,
Hard Factory Reset
Wipe Cache Partition
Then again re-booted it, still again stuck at flying dots. Then used TWRP recovery, but still it stuck at flying dots.
After this little stint with TWRP, finally flashed Lollipop version5.1.1 (LMY48B), but again it stuck at flying dots.
But this time, I received ./cache partition error. I have used the steps mentioned in this link:
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
+ fastboot flash cache cache.img mentioned in here:
HTML:
http://androidforums.com/threads/nexus-5-stuck-in-the-start-up-screen.887612/
Though cache partition error got removed, but still was stuck at the same situation. Finally, roll-backed to KIT-KAT, this time it worked, but Camera, Gallery, Play Store was continuously crashing. When I opened the gallery it showed no SD card, then I downloaded few files + downloaded OTA update, they both got downloaded. So, I think internal memory is my fine, don't know the possible reason of this error. One more thing, my sim card was also not readable.
Few hours later, I again flashed my phone to Lollipop, then again got stuck at flying points.
PS : Apologies for making this post long, but just want to tell the methods I tried.

Resoved the issue using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide
Issue got Resolved. Nexus is Up again.:good:

What did you do to fix it, might help others

Problem with BlissPop: Stuck at "BlissPop is starting..."

Hello to everyone, posting this here as I don't have access to ask in the forum post for BlissPop - I.E fresh user
I'm having issues with my "recalled" shield tablet (wifi), I had it flashed to BlissPop successfully previously but when I tried reflashing it the other day I was met with a major roadbump: It just won't load the ROM.
The tablet freezes at the screen following the installing and optimization of each application - basically my screen is stuck at a small wall of text saying the following:
"BlissPop is starting...
Powered by Team Bliss
Starting apps.
Please wait for the optimization process to finish."
And before you ask, yes I have waited long enough (left it on through the night just to be sure - this thing won't load).
My procedure is as follows.
Bootloader is CWM and it is rooted beforehand.
1st off going into recovery mode.
#2 Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache - done
#3 Installed BlissPop via sideload, then gapps_pico afterwards (I've tried wiping cache+dalvik before installing gapps to no help.)
#4 Rebooting from CWM, here I've tried both allowing and denying CWM to "fix" root settings.
I've tried the first ROM I installed (when wifi/lte versions were available) and the newer releases - same problem with both.
After this I am met with this screen that won't budge, anyone got a possible solution to this issue?

Hey I just received my replacement tablet and was going through this process too. I did some digging around and found / remembered that having an external SD card socketed can cause this problem. So I powered my device off, removed the card and then rebooted without major issue.
Hope this helps.

I don't have any SD card in my tablet though, thanks anyways.

Did you format system?
If not then do format system/data/cache

Tried doing a format of system as well as data/cache/dalvik, still getting same result :/

Not sure its still helpful or not...i saw the xda thread regarding to this thread and whoever tried to flash the last zip got stuck at boot. So I'm guessing if you will flash a different one (by this time maybe they upload a new one) maybe you could get rid of it..

When I switched to BlissPop I had to format /data because TWRP was unable to wipe it. TWRP offers that option unter "advanced wipe". Might be the same with CWM.

any help my phone stuck on this boot loop and i dont know what to do now , any fix ? i dont wanna have broken phone i did everything that u guys said nothing works

Stuck at formatting system while flashing a rom in twrp

Hello everyone, I've been usuing Xda to troubleshoot all my problems for years now and this is my first time posting because i couldn't find a solution for my problem this time.
I'm trying to flash CyanogenMod 11 on my Galaxy Star Advance SM-G350E, I'm running twrp 3.0-2
Before flashing the rom, i got stuck on wiping system to prepare for the new rom, i was stuck for more than 30 minutes on formatting the system, i resolved this by ticking the (use rm -rf instead of formatting) option on twrp's settings. After ticking that, the wipe completed in seconds so i went on to flash my rom, but when flashing, i get stuck on ( formatting system ).
I tried waiting, but it's been over half an hour and still nothing, i tried troubleshooting the issue for hours and couldn't find anything online, so I'm posting here because i know i can count on my dear members . Any pointer are greatly appreciated.

Bootloop problems-cannot be solved by reflashing

Hey guys.
My friends Oneplus One 64GB got 'bricked' today, and I am trying to save it.
He has never modded the phone before.
Firstly, it got stuck in a bootloop.
I then cleared the cache, after which it worked fine.
About 2 hours late, the phone just switched off when he was using it.
I tried to clear the cache again, but there was no effect.
I factory reset the device through recovery, but it continued bootlooping.
I then downloaded the OnePlus One Toolbox from inthiaano, unlocked the bootloader, then flashed the official rr nougat.
it booted fine, but it immediately started bootlooping after it was unplugged from the computer.
I am on a windows 10 device, freshly formatted and installed, so i doubt its a virus from the computer.
After it started bootlooping, nothing would work.
It can only access fastboot at the moment.
Please help me.
Any help is much appreciated.
