Bootlooping =\

Hopefully this is the right place. Ive searched and not quite found exactly my situation, so if there are similar threads, I apologize..
So I have CyanogenMod 6.1.2 on my Evo, with MattedBlues skinned over it.
Last night it rebooted randomly in the middle of me writing a text and went into bootlooping from the HTC EVO 4G splash. I cannot get into recovery and Ive tried running the stock RUU .exe (as I did last time I bricked my phone) and I get error 170 over and over (from HBOOT USB and FastBOOT USB menus).
What can I do? I dont have the cash right now to pay the deductible for a new phone and I *must* have a phone.
I rooted using Unrevoked 3, but I believe my recovery image is damaged, and my HBoot is 0.97.00 when Ive read I need 0.76.
How can I fix my phone?
If I can get adb to recognize my phone, can I just push/flash a new recovery using adb since I cant get into recovery through the phone?

If your having issues running the ruu and the error your not completely out of luck. I have unrooted several times that way. I would recommend try rebooting your computer first off. After that before you run the ruin reboot the bootloader a couple Times, in fastboot you'll see the reboot option. This has always solved the issue for me, may take a few times but its still worth a shot.

Rebooting the bootloader doesnt help, still getting Error 170, so hopefully flashing a new recovery from HBoot will.

Okay so copying the PC36IMG to my SDcard, the bootloader recognizes it, and reads it, and I get a progress bar on the right.... but no option to flash the image, and booting into recovery does nothing.
Im going to try an HBoot run of the PCIMG36 RUUs I found on another page... I dont mind going back to stock, I just want the damn phone to work.

Double post.

So I used the latest PC36IMG Signed zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu&page=7, and it went through, did all the updates, but when asked to reboot, which I did, I get a blinking yellow LED that goes solid, boots up, get the EVO 4G white splah for a few moments... then nothing.
Im hoping its just a dead battery. =\ Gonna try it again in a bit.
Nope. Still getting bootloops, even with the new PCIMG flashed. What the f*cking hell.

Bricked Nexus S

Hey Guys,
Nexus S the phone which I love the most and I do own this one from a long time.
Please read the whole thing don't ignore as it's toooo big.
Straight away to my issue. Thing is I've unlocked boot loader, rooted and I was using CM9 MOD. Everything was going fine. And i saw Cyber GR-MOD with more customization in the forums, I also flashed Cyber GR-MOD. Every thing was again fine with the Cyber GR, but I was facing few bugs in it. I was often wiping the data/doing factory reset. I was bored with Cyber GR. Then I saw ROM MIUI based on CM9 build with IMM76D. I was really attracted by UI of the MIUI ROM. I decided the flash that ROM. Before finding the MIUI ROM I was facing some problem with the Recovery. I was often getting error E:\ can't mount SD Card and the phone doesn't boot up. I did solve it by locking and unlocking the bootloader. Even after doing that I was facing that issue. Some how i managed to get into the recovery and flashed the MIUI Rom. After flashing i rebooted the device and the thing is i ain't get MIUI boot logo. I was getting CM9 Boot logo and the phone boots up with the Setup wizard sometime along with that i get pop ups for all the apps in the system getting forced closed or it won't boot up, it just keep loading with the CM9 logo. And am not able to use any of the ROM. Again now am stuck in that f***king [don't mind this ] E:\ Can't mount SD Card and when i tried to lock and unlock my bootloader, It did get locked successfully but when I tried to unlock it. It freezes in the Unlock bootloader menu. And am not even able to restore the phone or install a custom ROM coz of the error which i mentioned above. What eva ROM I install the only things it always boots up with CM9.
Please give me a permanent solution for that E:\ Can't mount SD card and to get my handset back with a new MIUI ROM
Please help me out guys. My dad will screw me up if he comes to know that my phone is bricked. LOL!! but this is the fact

U can force ur phone into recovery using cmd in windows.search in google how to do it.
I forget the command
After get into cwm u can wipe data.cache.dalvik and try flash stock rom.
Good luck

This made me lol.
I've seen a link with a probable fix for it but I'm on my phone and can't find it.

Yeah, give this a try. Nowadays, even if you aren't on a linux OS, you can set that up in maybe less than 30 minutes.
All the best, hope you can de-brick your phone.

How did it go? I'm curious, because I'm presently on CM9 nightlies (which is already 4.0.4 based), but am thinking of flashing the stock ICS 4.0.4 just for a look at it. But... don't want to brick out.

Please help!!
Followed all the steps.
But while resurrecting the device am getting error as SBL Injection Failure.
I don't know what to do.

Constant Reboots, Hanging and Annoying Me

Okay, so first off, I'm literally about to light this fking thing on fire.
This damn phone has been the death of me. I have a Tbolt and Galaxy Tab, and NEITHER have been as much of a pain in my ass.
This seems impossible because since I got the phone, I've had nothing but problems.
1. Unlocked bootloader via fastboot. K, done.
2. Flash AmonRa Recovery (I did this before AND after using CWM recovery, having custom rom, etc, it never worked) Always sat in a loop at the google X with unlock symbol, or just reboots into normal (and yes, the MD5s are correct) 3. I've had the phone get into the rom both with SIM and without, and randomly reboot, from using anything from market, to file explorer, to hitting the lock screen.
Honestly, I'm tempted to just sell it again (since I bought it off ebay) and buy something different, though that's a pain to do, and I need it for a trip to europe in a week, so I would love to have a phone I'm not pissed off at. And yea, already got mad enough I threw it.
I've literally spent HOURS looking through Google results on all the issues. And have YET to make this lil pos stable enough for me to use like I do my tbolt. nice 100 battery pulls. Seriously. Heeelllpp on this, :-/

try
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata

and then flash via fastboot the AmonRa recovery again.
BTW, which ROM are you trying to flash? ICS or Gingerbread? And do you have Blackrose installed?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872441 << Flashed this.
So far, I've knocked my network to 2g and it's been fine. though not really much of a fix. And I had cleared all of the above using CWM prior to the attempted flash. I'd rather not have to wipe everything again just to get AmonRa. I've wiped quite a few times. Though did get something about /sd-ext missing when erasing via CWM. Also, I tried erasing recovery, and got this: "erasing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)". Not sure if that matters. Just seems that flashing via Fastboot has failed everytime. I flashed CWM via fastboot and that failed too, I ended up getting it working via RomManager.

First of all any ROM you find here for an update is going to have bugs. So have to prepared for reboots, and/or no boots.
On the other hand, you have to verify to see if you have any hardware issues. In order to do so, you have to flash to a stock ROM to see if the issue continues. If stock ROM is just fine, then its the custom ROM that is causing grief! So try another custom ROM, until the one that suits your needs.

my sugestion 2 u - use cm7.2. use 4ext touch recov, wipe all ur stuff, flash blackrose hboot with no repartitioning, flash cm7.2 rom, finally, stop b!tching!

Still having bootup problems
Okay, sorry to bring this back up, but I am still having an issue with the phone booting. If I get the phone on, it's fine, doesn't randomly turn off or anything. However, if I try to reboot, power off and power back on for any reason....it becomes a pain to get back up and running. I usually have to do a couple battery pulls before it comes back up. Does the same thing. Hits the X, vibrates once like it's gonna turn on. Then a few seconds to a min later, goes black, then flashes the x and vibrates once again. It loops like this until I pull the battery and try again. Sometimes it takes a couple times to work. Its not the ROM either, because this is the issue I had when I first got the phone and did fastboot oem unlock. It would hang on stock. It's done it on all 3 ROMs I've tried. I don't wanna say fully it's a CPU issue, because I don't have issues once it's on.
Any new idears?
PS. I tried CM7, and I didn't like it. Not a fan of AOSP ironically enough.

The Nexus One will give off 7 Vibrations to indicate a hardware issue, we will just have to wait and see

nexus 7 stuck on android is upgrading

i have a nexus thats completely stock( out of the box) worked fine for about a month, let the tablet die and has been unplugged for about a week. got it charged up and and would not turn on. using the nexus root toolkit i was able to get to turn on. unlocked the device( unlock logo below google icon on startup) was unable to get past that point. now finally i can get past the nexus boot logo but it gets stuck on aindroid is upgrading " optimizing app 1 of 11" i cant root using the root tool kit bc when i unlocked device it got rid of developer options ( by what the msg said before i unlocked). im simply trying to get my device to turn back on. i dont plan to root or install a rom, im fine with the stock rom. i just want to damn device to turn back on. when i was able to power on the device when i first got it i did upgrade to the newest jelly bean rom. any one can help me on this issue ??
thanks

Boot into temporary custom recovery using Nexus root toolkit(Advance menu). Now wipe cash and devlock than try rebooting into system. If it doesn't work you can try factory reset. Last but not the least will be Flash Stock + Unroot(Soft brick/boot loop).

ok i wiped cache and devlock was able to to pass the nexus logo into what looks like another android is upgrading screen it got up to 14 of 20 and froze. between my 1st post and yours i was able to get android to fully run. did all the 1st time setup but after about a couple screen taps the device kept freezing and coming up with crash reports. there were a few times that the stock launcher even forced close. after a couple of restarts it finally quit again and would not even pass the nexus logo. ill try to do the other options that u stated in your post. any other thoughts ?

If the factory reset doesn't work just go for the Flash. I don't think you are much worried about the data so it's not a big deal for you. and I'm quit sure this is gonna work. Best of luck.

ok did that. went smooth but then once again it just gets stuck at the nexus logo. waited for over 10 mins like the notes say after re flashing and nothing. so i did a restart this time it passed the nexus logo, went to android is upgrading optimizing app and gets stuck at 4 of 11. being that this is pure android are there custom roms out there that i could try to flash via odin. ive rooted and installed roms before on my other android devices no problem but they were never pure google. am i missing something here. also what would cause a brand new nexus 7 just to go "ape ****" on its self.

Okay, that's weird!!!
Are you using Nexus Root Toolkit?? If yes are you using pre-downloaded android??
Try Automatically download + Extract.....
Last of all I'm really confused how there could be a problem when you got a fresh OS and Stock.
I agree with the messing thing that you told... Try checking and double checking everything... Check if you have selected the correct device or not.
And do a full wipe(including system) using TWRP before flashing again.
Edit: Make sure you are using the latest toolkit. You can get it from the link bellow.

I don't see a way how the problem still exists... :S
Whatever the problem is it's seems to be with android OS. But how it exists in completely new android. Sorry can't find a reason behind the problem. You can still try flashing any older android (like 4.1.2).

ok i got a zip of stock 4.1.2 and using the root tool kit i can install a zip via the twrp but it wont let me bc it says adb device not found and that developer options need to be turned on. im un able to turn it on bc i cant even get into the rom on the device.

ok i got it working. i was able to flash the older rom to my device and its working so far. no force closes yet.

Fix for Infinite N4 Bootloop

I found the solution.
Really pisses me off that it was this simple.
Turn on your phone into bootloader
Leave it on bootloader until the battery drains 100%
You can tell it is drained when the phone looks like it is bricked and when you plug it in a red light shows on the notification light
Let it charge for ten minutes
Boot the phone
It should boot. Yeah. Seriously.
It looks like a battery fault of some sort. Welcome

Did you try to wipe Dalvik Cache & Cache in recovery after flashing back to stock?

If the above doesn't work then do this:
Boot into recovery(go to bootloader(vol. down+power) and select recovery). Use "adb pull /sdcard/the_folder_goes_here/and_so_on.jpg" to pull whatever you want to backup(pics, music etc) and flash stock ROM from Google https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam
It's the best way.

Well yeah, but flashing the stock rom just left me with a bootloop, just with those 4 rings..

boot into recovery, see if your computer detect your phone as android device, try use minimal adb and fastboot, it happen to me once, and success to fix it. if it cant fix it, try use nexus root toolkit, the tools here on xda nexus 4 forum. choose back to stock, and dont forget to choose current status as soft-bricked/bootloop. let me know how it goes.. we'll figure it out

Gday again, just curious as to how you went with going back to android 4.2.2. Is your phone back in action? I was stoked when mine worked again, even though it took me 12 hrs to make it happen lol.
This might be helpful, was for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/nexus-4-bootloop-official-4-3-ota-t2595057

I fixed it, and had it fixed for maybe 4 months, but now it is back in a bootloop. What i did to fix it the first time beats me, i just randomly flashed 4.4 roms, and it booted once. I used adb sideload for some stuff, but i am gonna keep trying.
