Forgot and i dont know where this goes and i cant do nothing im not bricked just cant boot i have bootloops
I did the same thing - so you can use adb to reboot into recovery mode.
So make sure your Xoom is connected to your PC and your in the adb dir and while that honeycomb screen if looping type :
adb reboot recovery
It will boot you back into recovery mode and you can do the wipe.
Did the same. You can power down holding the up vol then when the red moto logo shows press the up vol again and you should get the option of Android Recovery so you can wipe. I did this and all worked fine.

I have a TF101 with Megatron installed. I also have an HTC Thunderbolt. I believe at some point in using the tablet I entered recovery through the preinstalled Rom Manager, and now am stuck in a recovery boot loop. I can access the system by holding down Volume+ and Power, then letting the system cold boot. The system has Recovery Touch 5.8. I tried installing roaches recovery, and it said successful, but it still reboots into 5.8. I do not have direct access to a Windows Machine for a long while. i do have complete remote desktop access to a Windows 7 Machine over the internet, and access to my Thunderbolt. Is there anyway to fix this boot loop with what I have available to me? Thanks for any help.

As i understand you can cold boot you tablet. Method when tablet of hold volume - and power button till too white lines of text appear in left upper corner. Let go of the button and wait for it to cold boot up.
Then go online with your tablet to this topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213723
This topic is especially for bootloop problems with recovery. Our tablet can for some reason not handle if your boot into recovery throug rom manager.
Now in the above topic pick an earlier build of cwm and download it onto tablet. Then go back into recovery and flash this recovery the normal way as install zip from sd card (internal memory is that for the tablet )
Now you should be able to normal boot the os. If it after flashing still only boots into recovery your not able to flash recovery. And that can be solved by flashing cwm 3.2.0.1 from the same topic. Afterward you can flash touch recovery over the 3.2.0.1 to be updated.
Download ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4 roach-tf101-r2 from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=934821&d=1331070176
Place the recovery zip on the sdcard where clockworkmod can read it.
Reboot into recovery using "adb reboot recovery" or "hold volume down and power for 3 seconds, let go of power only, then press volume up when prompted on screen"
In recovery, select flash zip from sdcard and select the recovery zip you downloaded
Once it has flashed the zip file, don't reboot but hold power button to shot down

i install the paranoid android rom on my nexus 7 and now its stuck on the bootanimation of the paranoidandroid rom i didn't wipe the data but i did wipe the caches so if somebody can tell how to get out of it i will appreciate the help I'm new to this thank you
Hold on the power button (I believe) to turn it off and go back to recovery and re-wipe and reflash. It happened to me once. Or wait till the battery dies.
Hold down the volume up (might be down, can't remember) and power button down at the google screen. Then the screen should go black, quickly hold down all three keys (up, down, and power) and it should bring you to recovery mode. :good:

Hi. Have the same problem. When trying getting into recovery mode, nexus stuck on google logo. Please help. I don't know what to do.
Ran into the same thing and now fixed
I had the same problem and finally figured out (I think) that it was because I was installing the ROM and the gapps at the same time. I installed just the ROM and then booted. Then rebooted to recovery and installed the gapps.
1. Hook it up to the computer.
2. Shut it off. Hold power. Then hold Power and Down till at the bootloader screen.
3. Flash recovery "fastboot flash recovery recov_filename.img". I used the zip from thread 1837401 on these boards to get fastboot and clockwork recovery.
Sometimes have to do this 2x if won't run through. If it sits doing nothing, go down in the menu and reboot bootload and then rerun the command before touching anything on the GN7.
4. Go into recovery, flash PA and reboot. After got in and running, reboot and install gapps.
5. Enjoy the awesomeness!
LOL you have to wipe the data. use tib to get your stuff back. Wiping the cache is a meaningless gesture if you haven't wiped the data. If you had followed the instructions in the rom thread, there would be no problem for you.

When attempting to enter recovery mode on my xt907, I get a sideways android figure with a red triangle instead of the normal recovery screen. I have not attempted to root the phone. Everything is stock. I usually boot into recovery once in a while to clear the cache. I have not changed anything since the last successful recovery boot. Any ideas?
Doesn't this always happen... then you have to press vol up and vol down to then enter the recovery menu... this should show you how to get in there... http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JtzubRAGMWc&desktop_uri=/watch?v=JtzubRAGMWc

In that screen, hold volume down and tap volume up to get into the recovery menu.
So about a few hours ago I saw that I could download the new 10.2 cyanogenmod. I wanted it because it was Android 4.3, so I downloaded it. I tried watching flash movies and stuff, and the browsers and stuff kept crashing, and the internet didn't work completely. So, I downloaded 10.1 again, and installed it. It rebooted to the teamwin thing, and then rebooted again. A few minutes after, I was curious as to why it was still loading. Waited a long time, and it still was on the CM boot logo thing. Im using the Nexus 7 toolkit (its called something else, but im not sure what. The icon is a red toolbox with 3 tools in it), and can't reboot into recovery or flash stock back on it. How can I get it out of bootloop? I really need help! D:
Press all the three buttons , power , volume up and volume down together and boot into bootloader. From boot loader use volume buttons to go onto recovery , do a clean wipe there and reflash a ROM. Another alternative is to use adb and type
Code:
adb reboot recovery
then wipe clean and reflash ROM.

Hi Red Devil,
I just tried to install CM 10.1.3 on my Motorola Atrix HD.
I forgot to wipe data and cache before installing the ROM, and now it is stuck in the boot animation.
When I press the power and volume keys down together, it takes my phone to a black screen, and when I press them again on the black screen it gives me a brief menu that says
"Normal power up"
"Recovery"
"AP Fastboot"
"Factory"
and another one I can't recall.
This screen times out in about 3 seconds. and regardless of which item from the menu I select, it still shows my boot logo, then the CM animation. I cant boot into fastboot or recovery, and I can't find anything good online to help me.
Help! What do I do?
Part way through rooting the tablet I try and boot into recovery mode but it just displays pink/blue pixels and lines. Is there a way to reset the process and get access to recovery mode?
It sounds like you are stuck in the hardware test mode not recovery. Just hold the vol + and pwr at the same time until you see the Lenovo logo and let go. This should boot you into recovery. Alternatively, vol - and pwr gets you to fastboot which you can reboot using the fastboot reboot commands.

Won't boot to recovery, just has a pixelated screen. It will however boot normally. I've done a factory reset and tried to do a system update but it bots to a pixelated screen again.
