I tried to update my Aria from Cyanogen 7 RC 2 to RC 4 last night and phone got stuck on the spinning blue android boot screen. I didn't have enough space on sd card so I couldn't back up the old rom. I've done this multiple times but it wouldn't work this time. I put the rom on sd card, flashed into recovery using power+vol down. Wiped data/cache/Dalvik and tried flashing, yet it still gets stuck. I've tried flashing rom about 4 times now and it still gets stuck. Any help would be appreciated
Try formatting the system partition as well before flashing.

I flashed a rom the other day and a couple minutes after flashing the rom kept rebooting not goin past the Mytouch splash screen. If the sdcard is in it'll reboot about 3 or 4 times and finally boot up or just removing the card it'll boot up normally. I unrooted to see if that was the problem. Same result I've tried different cards reformatting and everything and the cards work on other devices. So I'm assuming its the phone. Is there a way to fix or am I just stuck with a phone that can never be rooted again ?
Also when I go into recovery I get the" E: can't open /cache/recovery/command"
I originally was trying to flash CM7 using a SD bootable version of CWM 3.0.2.8 and it wouldn't boot at all. So, after a bit of searching, came to find out my refurbished Nook was one of the "new" ones with the partition change and was told that custom ROMs won't work on it yet.
I then got a CWM flashable 1.2 stock ROM and flashed it back to stock. Now, it won't boot past the N screen. I tried holding the power and N button to get into recovery to restore it, but that process freezes up half way through.
Next, I tried the 8 times boot interrupt (which is only 4 on my Nook btw) and it too freezes up part way through while "Clearing Data".
Any ideas on where to go next?
Nevermind, problem fixed. Whew, I went from having a Nook that wouldn't even power on this morning to a fully restored one.
Turns out I needed to have the power adapter plugged in while doing the 8 boot interrupt process.
Here's the deal: I've been running dual boot for several months but yesterday upon trying to boot from the alterative partition to the main partition it froze at the boot screen.
I was able to get the boot screen to say "loading...." under the cyanogen logo or get it to say "loading alternate" or "booting into recovery", but the nook just freezes there no matter what I try. In fact, the more I hard reset the nook the worse it gets.
I have wiped, reinstalled, reflashed, re downloaded, and flashed from internal cwm and bootable sd. Once I reboot out of one partition to the other, it freezes.
Has anyone else encountered this? Any ideas??

Can you run cm7 from an SD card?
I tried (clean) flashing a droid concepts build over on droid-hive a little while ago and everything went ok when flashing. I tapped reboot system in twrp and the screen went black and didn't boot. I can't get it to boot consistently either into the os or into fastboot. It'll occasionally let me into recovery and I tried restoring a backup and also just rebooting from recovery and it won't boot at all. When it is plugged up, it'll show the charging icon when I tap the power button like it does when the screen is off. I've tried everything I can think of. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Edit - I finally got it into fastboot and I flashed the stock google image. Its working now.

Hi All
I searched all the threads related to boot loop but did not solve my problem. I was in stock lollipop and my phone was working without any issues. One fine day I felt that the phone is hot and tried rebooting. The phone was struck in the initial graphic screen. Tried restarting again but the same result. After multiple failed attempts, tried doing a factory reset from the recovery with no luck. Thought that something got corrupted, installed twrp and did a fresh install of the factory image. That also did not help. Then installed Chroma ROM and then back to Kitkat factory image and all the attempts failed. Then tried installing Chroma ROM again and after a long wait, it booted up. I inserted the sim card and the network was not detected and hence had to reboot again. The reboot resulted in the bootloop again. Then installed CM 12.1(without sim) and it booted after considerable amount of wait time. Then inserted the sim card and it was not detected and had to reboot again. Now struck again in the boot animation. Is this a hardware issue? Also does the SIM card insertion requires a restart in Nexus 4.
Tried clearing cache/ dalvik cache and did factory reset, file system check but nothing worked..
Can some one help me on this..

Have you tried out the Nexus Root Toolkit? I know most are against toolkits but it really can't hurt in your situation! Try following the guide while having the SIM installed. And yes, SIM card insertion requires a reboot.
Good luck!
