So, I received the samsung bookcase today. When I placed the tab in the case the screen shut off. When trying to power back on, it was unresponsive. When I retried to boot into safe mode? (power + vol down) I get the error message above and nothing happens after. Rebooting from there sends it into a boot loop. When I was able to boot up, I was immediately greeted with every app force closing. Touchscreen was unresponsive too.
Help!
(i/o edition, stock)
Unsure if I should just follow the steps given on other boot loop threads. (I like to think my problem is special). Or contact samsung?

Mine did the same thing before the boot loop issue. I thought it was my fault because I crammed too many things into my lap top bag and I broke it
Got it back running after multiple combo buttons pressing
After that it went into boot loop and got stuck
You don't have to download any .img files just do afast boot wipe

Thanks for the help. I would do that to but the moment I got back to my place, my computer's motherboard failed. I ended up just calling samsung and they'll fix it up for me.
Bad day...started off so well with a google campus tour too.

Hi. I were running a rooted stock rom with the newest radio and spl and ra recovery. I decided to try rom manager(i think thats what its called). I flashed the recovery, i believe it is called clockwork. When i rebooted my phone it just keeps rebooting at the htc logo. I cant enter recovery or anything. Is there a way out of this or can i just throw it in the dumpster?
Can you get into fastboot? Take the battery out and pop it back in. Then try powering on holding down back+power. You should get a screen with three Androids skateboarding. If you can get the port the information here. If you can and it just does the boot loop, do the battery again hitting the back button repeatedly, give that a few tries and see where it gets you.

Did they take it back under the warranty? Did you mod your phone?
Do you get the blue led & black screen when pressing trackball + power at boot?

So that means your device isn't fully bricked - your hardware seems to be working, and you should be able to restore the device using JTAG (search the forums). Though I managed to restore mine by resetting some stuff with draining battery and repeatedly trying again. I'd recommend you to try too.
I got my nexus 7 yesterday and straight away unlocked it with adb and flashed cwm and superuser. I've just tried to boot into recovery (turned off, held volume up + down then power, selected recovery) and it's just stuck at the black screen with Google in white and the unlocked logo.
Can't really do a battery bull on these soooo.... any ideas?
Edit: forget it, after about 20 minutes, literally after posting this, it booted back into android like normal <_<

Glad you got it working just a little tip tho cause I did something similar and I wiped data and formatted system to flash a new ROM, then I accidentally pressed reboot so I couldn't get into android or recovery cause as of right now you can manually boot to recovery , solution just use the one click method to root and it will take you directly to recovery the you can mount storage and flash a ROM

Unplug your device. Hold the power button until it turns off. Then hold volume up, volume down, and the power button. It should boot you into recovery.

I'm sure there are more ways to deal with this, but I personally would just flash a custom recovery from bootloader and re flash the rom. Probably the easiest way to go about it. Others may have a better idea.

What did you do before? If you flashed a new ROM / Kernel, most likely they are not compatible.

... but if it's still locked, you need to unlock and then you will loose all your data
@verysalty: Did you try already to access the system with adb? Do you have debugging option switched on? Then you could try to do a backup of all your data before.

Sorry, no debungging mod on...
How can i flash my nexus to stock. easy way please.
The easiest way in my opinion:
- unlock boot loader (you will loose all your data!)
- download factory image from Google
- flash the factory image (fastboot or adb)
I am wondering why synchronizing some files with dropbox is causing a boot loop ???

Had a very similar issue today
Nexus started rebooting in the middle of different apps 2-3 times last night.
charged it overnight, unplugged it and went to class.
Then progressed to rebooting after only 40 seconds after the lock screen loaded from the reboot
40 secs wasn't enough time to do anything in android so after much research this is how I fixed it:
- in the 40 secs that android worked I pressed and held the power button and powered it down to stop the boot loop.
- when it was finally shut down I pressed and held the power and vol dwn buttons til the recovery menu appeared.
- used the vol buttons to select recovery, then pressed power
- When the android with the red exclamation point (!) showed up I pressed power then vol up and released for the menu to appear.
- Selected and execute Factory Reset. Then wipe Cache. then reboot, fixed the problem so far, now I'm re-installing apps.
I talked with a google rep about the problem, said it could me anything from a poorly written app, to a corrupted boot sequence.
Anyone know what may have caused this, so I don't inadvertently cause it to happen again??

I had the exact same issue from your description, I solved it after I read someone else disconnected the battery. Its a pretty quick fix to what looks like an unrecoverable problem loop of switching on, then powering down.
Here's what I did:
Open the back using just my nail on one corner , it snaps off easy pesy, trust me
Use ifixit nexus 7 battery replacement guide , steps 1-6 only, note where they use a tool I used a pair of nail scissors to prise the connector out and back in
http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing+Nexus+7+Battery/9895/1
Pulling the battery out, as with any android device can work.
Total time 2 mins
It was working again before I put the back cover on.
I installed Asphalt 8 on the G2 only to find out the graphics settings only go up to low. I looked for a fix, and found I could get access to high graphics by changing the model in the build.prop file. I think I must've entered another model nuumber for a supported phone wrong somehow, rebooted and now it's in a bootloop with the LG Logo. Can I change the build.prop WITHOUT wiping it and installing a fresh stock ROM? I'm rooted and have TWRP & Busybox.
check the location of build prop then crate a buildprop cwm zip. U can reuse one fron another device. However put in correct buildprop and correct location of this on device in the script, then flash though recovery. It should boot then. Edit it in notepad++ though.

in many threads there speak about how to get into recovery. Go search at least the kernel thread where you got it from

Try holding Power+Volume Up.
If that fails, go to download mode by holding Volume Up while you insert your USB cable. Follow the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

I fear that during a boot loop there is little you can do.
And, as the battery cannot be removed, you need to wait for the battery to die! Then you power on to TWRP.
Power + Volume Down until the LG logo disappears and appears again. Let go of Power+Vol Down for a moment and press them back again. Should bring you to a white screen asking if you want to factory reset your phone. Press Power button to confirm and it should then bring you to recovery.

I've done something bad to my phone (tried to do a factor reset from within TWRP) and now I'm trying to get out of a boot loop myself... When I do the Power+Down trick to rest, it doesn't safely enter recovery and wait for me to do stuff, it launches some sort of recovery/reset script and reboots into my boot loop again.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I was on stock firmware, rooted, with TWRP 6.3.2.1.

You don't have to wait until your battery dies in order to shut down from a bootloop. If you hold all three buttons down, it will force shut down your phone. Not sure how long you have to hold it, but I believe you hold until after the LG logo disappears for the second time. It worked for me yesterday after I bootlooped my phone when I mistakenly enabled Thermal Daemon Mitigation instead of High Temperature Property in the Hidden Menu (don't ever do that). I'm not rooted, so I'm not sure if the function still works the same, but if you can get into TWRP after the phone is shutdown, then I believe that's the only way to do it.
My phone bricked itself out of nowhere. I bought it 2 years ago and since all I did weird is install NovaLauncher right when I got it and replace a broken screen with a new one after one year. Since then, it worked just fine until 4 weeks ago.
While watching TV I heard a buzz on the desk. It was my phone giving me the "Your device is corrupt and cannot be trusted" screen out of nowhere. After it powered off, I tried booting it back up. It gave me the same message, so I pressed power to continu. The phone then booted up normally. I tought: "that was weird". The phone worked like nothing happened until last monday. I was having issues with it and decided to reboot it since I didn't do it in a couple days. Then the message appeared but this time, it won't boot. It shows me the Essential logo, after a minute turns into the loading logo (the dots forming a circle) then reboots, giving me the same error message. It also says that it cannot boot and I should factory reset if this goes on.
Today I ordered a new phone but I want some of my data back from the Essential if possible before trying a factory reset. I have audio that I recorded using the Voice Recorder app and I really need those. Photos/video and music are already cloudbased so this doesn't matter, but the recordings are important.
Is there a way I can recover this data using recovery mode or something?
Thank you for your time.
Try booting while holding both the "power" and "volume down (or volume up)" buttons. Perhaps you can get to the bootloader and fastboot...
