Just wipe everything and flash rom without booting.
Without booting?

Yeah...otherwise if you boot your phone after wiping it, your settings (apn a.s.o.)
are in there.
ROOT will be set by flashing.
So I can just do it all thru recovery

Don't worry bricking your phone is unlikely unless you do something silly and don't follow the guides correctly.
This is the best place to start, you'll find everything you need in this one thread.

Welcome to the section. Check out the guides for rooting and installing custom roms on your phone. There isn't really a big chance of getting your phone bricked. Once you root it, you'll feel alot safer because the worst thing that can happen is a bootloop. (Which can be repaired!)

Its fairly simple when you actually do it, revolutionary does all the hard work for you. The guides just look scary as there's so much in them.

Try it with and without the phone plugged in. I think you'll probably have to have it plugged in.

okay i did all that now its stuck on the cyanogen loading screen what can i do
You've done the hard part don't worry its not broken. It should take around 5-10 minutes for first boot anyway so if its only been a minute or two and the rhythm of the boot logo is still turning smoothly and not pausing or restarting just leave it a little longer but if the logo freezes and restarts over and over this is called a bootloop. Easily fixed by rebooting into recovery again then select the wipe menu and wipe dalvik cache, cache and data then install your cm7 zip again. Everything should work then.

hmm i may have ruined it then for i just re did the installing of RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814
then left it at that for it worked then lol, is there anything i can do to get it actually done from there

yes i can still get to clockwork recovery by rebooting into hboot and going through recovery, ive also got the super user app in my apps
Just check in hboot that you are s-off and as you can still get recovery you're good to go, remember to wipe dalvik cache, cache and data when changing roms, if its an update you might get away with not wiping data sometimes. You'll get the hang of it soon enough. Before you flash cm7 again just run the backup in cwm then if it goes wrong again you can just restore.

Can anybody help me? I have been having this problem with my NOOKcolor i flashed cm7.2 on it and once i am on the home screen my NOOKcolor just shuts down and reboot itself again.
I would wipe and re-flash. Something obviously didn't go right :-\

If wiping and reflashing does not help, go to my nook color tips thread and look at item A8, bootloops.

Can you post the link here? Im new to xda, Sorry for that.
I also noticed that after multiple rebooting the NOOKcolor would restart reboot on it own.
I had tried wiping and re flashing its perfectly fine now but just right after a few reboots I got the same problem again the NOOKcolor reboots itself again this is getting frustrating but thanks anyway for your solution guys and I hope you guys can help me solve this problem thanks in advance and thanks for reading this hope you have a nice day.

Are you selecting reboot from the power menu? If you are... try powering off... waiting a minute or so and turning it back on... see if that don't fix the reboot issue.

Thanks. I would try that when i get the rebooting problem again but i wish hopefully not.
I flash a new rom yesterday for my nexus 4. Unfortunately, it was stuck in the custom rom logo.
I want to fix it via recovery mode. Sadly, my volume key was broken:crying:
Does anybody knows how can I boot my nexus 4 without using volume key? (it was stuck in the custom rom logo.)
Is it an other way that is possible to fix my phone?
And don't pick on my english, I know that is poor:angel:

The phone bootloops. Did you try to use adb reboot recovery when bootanimation shows up? It could work

Hi all; I have a soft bricked Nexus 4. I need a way to save it without wiping the files. I have an audio file I need to rescue from the phone. All online solutions I have found so far assume that I can access the phone features/settings (I can't) or that I can remove the battery (I can't - it's a Nexus 4). The phone is stuck in recovery mode.
I'd be hugely appreciative if anyone can tell me how to either:
A) retrieve my audio file from the phone
or
B) unbrick the phone without losing data
Do you have a custom recovery or are you stock? Also, is your bootloader unlocked?
What did you do to get in the condition the phone is on now?

Thanks, jd1639. I *think* the only thing that happened was that the battery went dead. The battery is not dead now.
Recovery Mode screen says fastboot mode and it says locked.
I guess I am stock? I don't do anything fancy to my phone. I'm too much of a noob.

Is it working now? If it isn't you'll not be able to recover your file. Doing anything will wipe the device.

If you can't boot thart's nothing left to do at this point. Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the device. But you might be able to save the device
