Just flashed 3 mods and now my phone wont load? - Vibrant General

I just flashed the 2.1 update for trigger, the matte theme, and the accurate battery mod in clockwork. now my phone will load to the homepage for about 10 seconds and then go back into the loading animation (the one you get wen you turn on your phone) and it keeps doing this. what should i do? i already tried restarting.

If you'd saved a nandroid backup you could restore from clockwork recovery. Might have to have a close personal conversation with Odin3 if not.

Well it sounds you flashed all of them together. What I would do is just flash the 2.1 ROM, rebbot and let it sit for about 10min. Then I would flash each mod individually, rebooting after each flash

you cant flash a battery mod and a theme together.
You can but its not recomended, as you can see the results can leave you stuck in a boot loop.
When you flash a battery mod, it changes the entire framework-res.apk.
When you flash a theme, it does the samething, so unless they are totaly compatible you shouldnt flash both.
When you flashed the theme, you changed the framework-res.apk and then when you flashed the battery mod, it probly removed some changes made to the original framework that was changed when you flashed your theme, causing you to be stuck in a bootloop.

It was the matte theme, it's not ready for 2.1 yet.

Yeah what the above posts said... sorry guys I should be more clear on what is and isn't okay to flash for those who don't know.

this is typically indicative of an .xml-.png mismatch......if you dont have a nandroid backup, youll have to wipe and start fresh
for the future....when you are applying themeing mods (just changes to framework-res.apk) what i like to do is just use RootExplorer to backup framework-res.apk only, just in case before i mod. that way if something goes wrong, instead of having to do an entire nandroid restore (which can be time consuming if you have a lot of data, and also might be outdated depending on when you last backed up), you can just push your old, pre-modded framwork-res.apk to /system/framework through ADB, reboot...and you are good as new again, no need for nandroid

Can't Restart my CM MT3G?

I have flashed the new CyanogenMod and the Cyanogen Recovery 1.4 and when I wipe everything and flash, it'll load up and I can use the phone 100% perfectly, but once I reboot my phone, or turn it off and on, it never goes past the green boot screen. Anyone have any solutions/reasons why it does that? It's with every single Cyanogen mod too, i've tried several of them.
Probably because you have a lot of apps?
If not, reflash it.

what do you actually flash and what is the actual process, you shouldnt have any issues after it boots up the first time, wipe everything and make an exterior partition meaning get rid of your cyanogen recovery 1.4 and get amon ra's latest... look in the dev section and read up on cyan's page on how to flash the rom

Thanks for help man, right now I'm running dwang's rom 100% perfect w/ no issues at all. it can reboot and everything just fine. I'm just a little worried on going back and trying to flash cyanogens.
When I installed it, I first did the root process, downloading the .apk file and going through all that part smooth, then I downloaded and flashed the Cyanogen Recovery 1.4, and from there I downloaded the two files (DRC83_base and the latest cyan's rom, i forgot the version #) and applied update from SD, first doing DRC83 and right after doing the rom itself, without rebooting the phone. It loads up A-OK and I can installl the apps and go about my business, but once I need to restart my phone, it just never turns back on. I'm puzzled completely...I even did the whole unroot and reroot thing and STILL i'm not having any luck.
K I got confused in there some where did you flash a cyan rom at all in there I read that you flashed the drc83 zip file but sounds like you just flashed that and booted the phone lol... never tried that but.... any way it seems like you are doing everything correct onlything I could suggest is make sure you have the correct htc base image, and make sure you wipe and repair everything!!!!! and also try a differant download of cyanogen as you might have gotten a bad one or something I have never had any issues with a cyanogen rom except maybe a FC back on 4.0xx or something

Openfire ROM Problem

Apologies for the double post but I'm dying to get my wildfire back working.
Rooted it yesterday with unrevoked, attempted to add the Openfire ROM this morning with everything going fine untill the reboot. I'm now stuck on the white HTC screen and have been for the last hour. Any help would be great, cheers.
did u do nandriod back up first
Sent from my Archos5 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
I backed up the stock firmware I already had manually, before it prompted on the flash.
did you do a full wipe before flashing the rom?
No i didn't, thought it would be safer incase something went wrong?
run your restore then I couldn't get it to work either
Sent from my Archos5 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
if you did a nandroid backup of your stock rom then you should be fine to wipe, since you did not wipe and flashed the new rom over your stock rom, apps and settings will conflict, therefore not work...
Right I see, I'm currently going through what I'm guessing is the restore....recovery - Nandroid, I'll let you know how I get on.
Thanks again.
Nope I seem to be getting nowhere here, can someone point me in the direction of the restore?
you didn't do nandroid backup did you haha, you'll have to install an RUU file to return to stock rom, or just do a full wipe and flash a new rom like openfire or wildpuzzle.
Where can I find the RUU file and how do I access my SD card? USB won't let me get to it, I'm guessing the phone is in charge mode?
go into recovery - partitons menu - mount sd card (or somthing like that) to open your memory card
Spot on, I'm on downloading an ruu file now, going to load it up with a stock rom then try flashing it again, but wiping it this time.
Infact how do I do a full wipe? I'm after the easiest way to get the phone booting up so I can flash it properly?
Anyone?
I'm still no further than I was three hours ago!
EDIT:
BREAKTHROUGH!!! =D
Restored it to before I flashed it incorrectly. Nearly threw the phone across the room in excitement.
go into clockwork recovery and click the title "wipe data/factory reset" and then flash the ROM you want to use.. to install a ROM:
- "install zip from sdcard"
- "Choose zip from sdcard"
- "click the zipfile"
- "yes"
- "reboot"
and if you want to install RUU dont ask me never done that

From the HBOOT screen go to recovery, then nandroid, restore, and to the appropriate time/date.
I've still had no luck with actually flashing the phone though. Back to Android 2.1 for me.
I'm 99% percent sure you have the OC issue some ppl incl myself on here have - try reinstalling openfire if thats what you wanna use - and then go to wildpuzzle thread - dl 0050 and flash it. If i'm correct phone will be fine and use openfire - but will NOT be overclockable. I wish Jacob had my phone or got hold of a phone w that problem...
I had problems with the Wildpuzzle 8.0.11 ROM, it would just sit there (did a ADB logcat on it, but I've lost the actual log... sorry! ) ignoring a duplicate entry (yeah, I did a full wipe . Removed WP and put on the latest OpenFire ROM... omg... what a difference to the stock ROM! Soooo much faster, even before I overclocked it.
I'd say, if you have boot issues with WP give OpenFire a go. Certainly worked a treat on my Wildfire.

[Q] Something went wrong, Stuck in cwm and can't restore a backup?

Hello all,
I recently switched to the Fascinate from the HTC Incredible. So far I have rooted and installed cwm. I got the Super Clean ROM and one of jt's voodoo kernels installed. The kernel was the 12/14 version from Rom Manager. Everything was going fine and I had finally gotten everything how I wanted it. Then I though oh how bout a theme now.
Apparently that wasn't the right thing to do. I download the zip and boot into red recovery to install. I make a nandroid backup and continue to install the zip. Upon installing the theme I reboot the device. Then it just boots into stock recovery. So I think oh no that's not good. I apply update.zip to get into cwm, but then green cwm pops up intead of red. Also an error also pops up saying E: can't open /cache/recover/log. At first I didn't really think anything of it so I continue to try to restore my backup I just made. No luck. So I try to reinstall the kernel and ROM I had downloaded. No luck. All I get is errors and I dont really know how to get back into red cwm.
Now I am stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been searching for solutions all day and I can't really find anything with my particular problem.
Which theme did you flash?
It was through rom manager. Something from blackhole. I don't remember exactly to be honest.
Ok I'm not sure if I made it better or worse. I took the sd card out and put it into my moto droid. I then created the disable_lagfix folder in the voodoo files. Then I put the card back in my phone. I tried flashing the stock DL09.tar through odin and now it is stuck in a loop. Samsung screen pops up then immediately runs a factory reset and does it all over again.

Cant get passed boot animation screen

Rooted using unrevoked. Flashed to evio 3 and trying to flash different roms such as CM 7, or Decks 1.0 and it wont get passed the boot animation screen.
The animation keeps looping and I end up restoring it back to evio 3 with manual recovery mode boot.
I tried cleaning the caches before flashing and it wont work.
Flashed with different methods as well.. Rom Manager and manual install zip from sd on recovery boot menu..
Im new to flashing roms so please let me know if you see anything wrong in my steps. I have titanium back up, but I dont think I have my stock rom backed up for some reason..
Did you wipe EVERYTHING before flashing?
all the caches it specifies on the pop up from Rom Manager, yes.
I havent wiped it to factory, re-root and flash if that is what you are asking.
Ok, wiped everything and got it to boot into new rom but marketplace is gone and its functioning bad. apps arent working and I cant restore apps or contacts..
You need to flash gapps to get your market and other google apps - this will then allow you to sync your contacts, calendar, etc. There should be a link to it in the rom's thread.

For the love of God do some damn research and learn something before you go and ruin your phone.

Just go ahead and reinstall the RUU. Search on youtube for unrooting htc evo. I believe the video is from zedomax. Great tutorial for getting your phone back to stock.
And another one having problems, and using ROM Manger......

Guess I screwed something up :O

So I was trying to go from comrom to OMFGB nightlies, and didn't know you have to go to OMBG first. When I tried to do that. I odined the ED05 modem, then flashed OMFGB, then the GAPPS. It wouldn't work, and then I read I had to flash a new kernel, so I flashed the Glitch high leakage. Then it started to work, but after it went to the boot screen, it went to a new CMW, blue, and tried to install GAPPS? I think that's what it was doing, but it went really quickly, and said something like it couldn't mount the sd card, which is weird. So I took out the sd card, and it said waiting for mount, or something similar. I put it back in, but it wouldn't work. So then, I flashed back to UKB with the pb&j kernel, to see if I could get things going from there. It booted fine, but when I tried to just flash OMFGB, it would go to the boot screen, and then go back to CWM. So I tried to go back to UKB, and then it did the same thing, didn't change the boot screen at all (so now it's stuck with Galaxy S Cyanogen mod boot screen). I tried to flash OMBG then, but it was still going back to CWM. I'm thinking about odining the eclair package, and then trying from there. What do you think. Oh and usually I go to android central, but they don't have OMFGB nightlies there, so here I am.
TL;DR: I flashed a bunch of GB stuff in what I assume to be in the wrong order, now I'm stuff. Help me?
EDIT:After flashing a bunch of stuff, I don't remeber what or what order, just that the Glitch was last, I managed to get it to boot, first with a glitch boot screen, then the android boot screen. I'm not sure what I'm on, I think it is OMGB, at least that is what the widget says when I booted it up. I'm really confused. Anyways, I think I got it.
EDIT2:Nope, stuck at the boot to CWM loop. I'm going to try to go back to UKB (froyo) through that sticky in dev
EDIT3:Well I'm waiting for it to download, so what I did that worked was flash OFGB in red CWM, weird, but it worked. I'm leaving it at that for now, cause nobody is replying.
While I'm glad you got things to work, you should probably start from scratch if things start to get weird again. I highly recommend this thread as the proper way to go from CM7/MIUI/OMFGB back to stock, and from there back to whatever you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391
Remember that when you flash stock DL09 or EB01 or ED05, you also have to have the atlas 2.2 pit file and "repartition" checked in ODIN.
Finally, while you still have things working, I recommend you do a nandroid backup. If you need to go all the way back to stock before coming back to gingerbread, you can do an Advanced Restore > Data Restore in order to get your apps and such back pretty painlessly.
Yeah thanks, that's the sticky I was talking about. I didn't know about the re-partition button having to be checked, thanks for that And the Data restore is through CWM? I assume so. And for that, I just need a regular nandroid backup?
Yes, in CWM you can choose backup and restore, and then do a system backup.
When you want to go back to a given setup (i.e. your apps, widgets, etc.) you can do an advanced restore where you choose to restore just data, and not the whole nandroid system backup.
That's pretty cool, I never new about that. So I tried the *228 1 and 2 thing, cause I couldn't download the beta swype, and I thought it I needed too, but it said my phone couldn't be activated, and to try again, then the I lost all signal. I rebooted, and it came back, but I couldn't activate it again. It's being weird still, and in the morning, I'm starting over like you suggested. I'm still receiving calls though, and I get good connection. For the morning, I was wondering if I could just check to see if I have everything I need. I have:
CI500_VZW_ED05_FROYO_REL.tar.md5 from the thread you posted for odin
OMGB 1.2.0
OMFGB nightly build 7/21
Glitch High leakage v11.1
The CWM for all roms (red)
lithid gapps (unless you think the other gapps is good)
and I think that is it. I don't have the atlas 2.2 pit file, can I just search here for that? Thanks for all the help
EDIT:Found the atlas 2.2, and I use that at the same time as the md5 file, right?
EDIT2:Okay, I tried to do a nandroid backup, but with the CWM recovery 4.0.1.0 (I think that's what it is), it didn't show anything, like it said backing up system, then it didn't show what part it was backing up, and the status bar stayed blank, then it moved on to data after a while, and that. It said it failed to back up sd-ext, which I'm guessing is why it wasn't working properly. I'm doing the odin restore to froyo, and if someone could tell me the correct order to install/flash/odin stuff to get to the OMFGB nightlies, that would be amazing!
EDIT3:I think I did it right. Odined to froyo, Odined the ED05 modem, Odined the CWM for CM7, flashed CM7, Rebooted, Flashed Glitch Kernel, then Flashed OMFGB nightly build 7/23. I still need to do gapps though.
EDIT4:I did gapps, and almost everything looks good. I can't activate my phone through *228 1, and when I try to set up my google account, it says it couldn't establish a reliable connection to the servers. And After I call to activate my phone, my service goes dead. I can still text and receive calls though
EDIT5:man, a lot of editing. I flashed OMGB 1.2.0 on top, and now I can set up my google account. Still not activating though :/
Unrelated question, how come sometimes my wifi and signal bars are grey, sometimes blue (I'm using cyanbread)? I think when they are grey, I'm not using signal? How do I make them blue?
