I haven't really seen anyone with a solution nor response for this ....I fixed my recovery issue by flashing 3.0.0.5 clockwork and took care of that ....I've heard of others with boot issue but nothing to resolve

Help! Sd keeps unmounting itself.

I'm running peter's 2.3.7 with matrix 7.5. I noticed this happened the other day after I rebooted my phone that it was saying that the sd card was not mounted. Didn't know what to do so I did a nand restore. It's happened a few other times and now I just remount it through clockwork. Any ideas what's causing this?

I've had this problem a few times as well, but every time a disk scan on the computer solved the problem. It's most likely caused by some file system error. Give it a try.
Will do thanks

This happened to me. I went into Cwm and did a fix permissions and it seems to be working now.

How did you do that?
Boot up with CWM Recovery and go to advanced. Fix Permissions is in there.

[Q] Flashing Bugless Beast bootloops, but everything else works

Hello, guys. I have the newer line of the 16GB nexus 7's(C90K, iirc), which I just got the other day. Bootloader is unlocked, TWRP is recovery, device is rooted. I checked the md5 of the Bugless Beast flash and all matched up. Yet, every time I flashed it resulted in a bootloop that wouldn't fix itself. I thought maybe I was doing something wrong so I looked at how others were doing it: everything was just right. I factory reset and wiped system for good measure, wiped caches, and installed the ROM.
To make sure that I really wasn't doing anything wrong, I took Paranoid Android and flashed it. It was running in like two minutes. I tried the latest and the second latest of BB releases, so I don't think it's his release but something on my device? I'd appreciate some assistance, guys.
I don't mean to double post, but any ideas?
How long did you let it try booting? I noticed my newer nexus 7 takes longer to flash and first boots seem to be a lot longer as well.

It was a bootloop rather than actually getting anywhere/loading anything. I let it bootloop for 30 minutes a couple times just to see, though.

Updated SmoothROM and my Nexus 7 stopped working! Can't get back into recovery.

I have had my Nexus 7 with SmoothROM on it for a long time now, I use it here and there, but I noticed it acting kind of glitchy lately especially when using the keyboard. I got 2 notifications from GROUPER (i think thats the name of it...) saying I had an update to SmoothROM (v 4.2) and that google apps needed to be updated... I did the normal crap, wiped everything, flashed the new smoothrom, flashed on the google apps, but when I rebooted it just keeps popping up saying "Unfortunately, the process blah blah gapps has stopped", then when i press ok it says Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped".... and when i press ok on that it just keeps popping back up... will NOT go away no matter what I try...
On top of this... I tried going to fastboot and putting it in recovery mode but then it just goes to the main boot screen that says Google with a lock at the bottom, and it is just stuck there...
So what would be the easiest course of action here? I can't get it into Recovery mode I don't think, although I forgot how to do it in the first place, I thought it had to do with sliding the lock somewhere at the boot screen but I have tried that and nothing seems to work...
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Update: I managed to get into the settings and put USB Debugging on
so now it gets recognized by my computer and I can view and transfer files.... But I still can't get it into recovery mode so what should I do now lol?
Should I be looking for something like this " Google Nexus 7 Toolkit V3.2.0 " ?
Use wugs to restore to stock and start over
If you go back to smoothrom make sure you download it again might have been a bad download

When you power on your nexus press volume down and up and power button together for a couple of seconds. Your screen will go off and then "Google" will come up. Continue pressing and you will be in the boot loader menu. Go to recovery and install the ROM you want. (Can you get there?) Or else try to install it from your PC with cmd. Let me know if the first way works.

Same here, I dirty flashed it from stock instead of full wipe. Always do full wipe just in case.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
is the lock under the Google logo open or closed? if you installed a custom ROM, it should be open. if it is closed, the bootloader somehow got locked again.
however, i think the issue you are experiencing is related to gapps. you either have a bad download of gapps or flashed the wrong gapps (some roms require custom gapps). try the volume down+power thing to get to the bootloader, then go to recovery. if you can't, flash a recovery using fastboot or use one of those toolkits to flash a recovery. before you re-flash your ROM and gapps, i'd recommend verifying the MD5 sum, since that will tell you whether the downloaded file is good or not.
Sorry for the late reply guys but as it usually goes my ADHD got the best of me and before I came back to read this i ended up using that Google toolkit thing that I asked about and did what somebody said (option 9) to download and then install the stock ROM (but thank you!!) BUT in case anybody would like to know the lock was open and I could put it in fastboot but it wouldn't boot me into recovery. Hopefully anybody else updating smoothrom that ends up in my position will find this thread. I also suggest just downloaded the ROM and flashing it with the recovery that was my first time using that update ROM thing and it screwed up lol.
Again thanks a ton! Is there any new ROMs out there for the Nexus 7? Anything better than SmoothROM (or stock, lol)?

Rasbeanjelly with Franco kernel. I think it's the best out there.. I got 5k on quadrant with no overclock anywhere. Games play with no lag, it's very good

Maybe I'll try that... I'm gonna do quadrant right now I DLed it right after I got stock on but haven't tested it yet

I have seen a huge difference also in the overall speed of the system, very responsive and fast every second you should try it out

Help unexplainable bootloops and no pc

I have no explanation of what has happened to my n7. It shut off by itself and just bootloops when I try to turn back on. I can get into recovery and I have a nandroid backup of a stock rom. Everytime I restore it restores system and then fails?? I flashed 3 different roms and all r flashed successfully but I get the same bootloops . I was using latest twrp and was get error I/o data / speedtest. Something else but I flashed cwm touch b4 I could jot down the errors . I figured it was twrp bug and didnt realize I wouldnt b able to flash back to twrp do to using gooim to write the image in the first place. I am desperate to find out what happened and I wont b near a pc for a few days. I have an unlocked rooted grouper version . I have read and searched b4 posting

it could be a hardware failure, maybe the mounted drive (emulated sd card) is corrupted and broken? the boot partition seems to be working
It sux cuz I wont have access to a pc for a few days

have you tried clearing the whole of /system /data /cache... everything except /sdcard then flash a new rom? maybe that'll clear some things up

Yes I wiped system /cache/dalvik/ and factory reset I did them all like 5 times each and flashed a brand new rom. Its so weird
Nothing works. I am always prepared for atuff like this with multiple nandroids cwm/twrp but they both fail to restore

Back in a few months ago I'm faced with that problem once, tried everything like factory reset, format system/data/cache/sd, install new ROM and also tried to restore by nandroid backup (that used to work fine before that problem occur) but non of these solutions work.
Finally I've to use fastboot to flash it to 4.1.2 (to format and re-partition the device) and flash it back to 4.2.2 and then it work fine again even with many custom rom and kernel installed to my N7 very frequent and today it still work just fine.

In the future, I'd refrain from flashing if you didn't have a computer on hand.

Oneplus 2 bootloop after 3.0.2 update

Hello op2 was rooter, unrooted on su, installed os, rebooted and phone optimises as usual, and starts again endlessly... I have access to fastboot. When trying to go into recovery, all phone remains in boot logo... I had made a backup of my phone and left it on as card is there any way I can get it? Is there any way I can reactivate recovery without loosing everything? Your help would be greatly appreciated!!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I wasnt even rooted and did the OTA and ended up getting boot loop. Had to clear data for it to work.
They've changed the bootloader. So a modified TWRP is required. Flash Grarak's modified twrp via fastboot ---> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572330218882108
Then Flash the Rom via Modified recovery. Full guide ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/zip-oxygenos-3-x-t3392826
could I be luck and not loose all.my data and backups left on the SD card if I used your options?

Hasn't fixed anything... unless you tell me in needs to go thru optimization of apps as it reboots many time... started with 237, now it's down to 180...

I can't get Into recovery or boot... power plus button down stays jammed at boot logo. How would I do this??

I can only get to flash boot button up and power... thats all!

Connect phone using fastboot & issue this command "fastboot continue". This should turn on the phone (if u restart u might end up in bootloop again), When it does go to developer options and enable "oem unlocking". Then try to unlock it. Then flash TWRP and any rom u like.
