If you can get into the phone's settings you can try uninstalling / reinstalling Launcherpro

CAN ANYBODY HELP ME PLEASE? PHONE STUCK AT RED M LOGO.
While being on Maniac's 25/04 build I decided to run V6 Supercharger. After I tried to run it got a message that it didn't have superuser rights although I pressed alow. The system got slow and I decided to reboot. It got hanging at the red M logo for a few min. Tried with Vol+- and power and after the blue and green lights it keep hanging on the red M logo. I decided to reflash the nightly but when I pres power button at the blue light I don't get to the CWM menu. Tried it 3 times without any effect. Funny thing is that I can still charge the phone. Does anyone have a idea what to do and spare me starting everything from the beginning? Any help is deeply appreciated!!!
can you boot into the recovery menu and wipe the caches and things??
hold volume down then the power button and this should get you into the stock recovery but you can still do a factory reset in there by doing a data wipe then clear cache and dalvik cache.
Not sure this will work and it will wipe all your data and apps but it may recover the system and make it boot.
Edit: maybe just try to wipe the cache first before doing factory reset, This will keep all your apps and data.

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately wiping cache on stock recovery didn't help, and if I do a factory reset I'll wipe out everything including 2nd init and cwm. It looks like I have to start with RSD and Froyo again.
yeah it sucks loosing all the apps and setting everything back up again but sometimes it has to be done.
I done it alot before I fully knew what I was doing. Flashing roms and RSD with the wrong kernels and all was frustrating to say the least

You get to CWM with VOL DOWN! And you should make a wipe cache /dalwik from CWM, not stock recovery as you did... You can try make a wipe cache, wipe dalwik cache from CWM, but maybe CWM got corrupted because of wipe cache you did from stock recovery...
If so, you you should make a factory reset from stock recovery, and start again with superoneclick, 2ndinit, CWM... Etc
If you flash custom roms you can forget stock recovery, everything is done from CWM! I've not seen my stock recovery for half year, flashing custom roms from CWM...
Good luck!

Hi there
I seem to have a problem flashing 4.3 roms, actually any rom that isn't stock in general.
Right now I am running syzmel's 20E with 1.3ghz overclock version 3.09.
Back to the problem: this is the steps I take to upgrade to any rom: 1. Download (slimbean, vanir asop) 2. flash v20D (unmodded) 3. Root it using Framaroot 4. Install CWM using L7CWM.zip (extracted, then clicked on flash bootloader, flash recovery, and then booted into recovery) 5. Boot into CWM 6. Click on factory reset and reset 7. Go into mounts and storage and format /system 8. Go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache. 9. Flash either 4.3 version slimbean or Vanir ASOP (tell me which is better) 9. Flash gapps (Slimbean: Slim AIO minimal Gapps, Vanir: 4.3 minimal Gapps which is found in the Vanir ASOP page) 10. Factory reset again 11. Wipe dalvik 12. Reboot
Now as soon as I reboot, either it stays rebooting, or boots once and when you reboot it stays at the boot loading page (slimbean logo, or android logo) (In other words, once you go black, you never go back. Not being racist, just saying once it blacks out it doesn't work no more). So i retry. And then I give up and stick on v20E.
So please suggestions?

Are you sure it wipes made correctly?
Danm, yes I'm sure.
Why you dont format cache and data & data/media ?
Did you try boot without gapps... Sometimes bad gapps cause a lot of problems

When you factory reset it clears cache automatically. I'll try without Gapps.
wipe data,wipe cache wipe dalvic cache

How do you factory reset? Factory Reset is NOT only wipe data

Factory reset in CWM clears cache automatically.
....Anyway, I finally fixed it. Turns out I had to wipe EVERYTHING. Including /data and /data media. Thanks anyway guys.

Are you saying that you have apps left over from your previous cyanogen mod install? If so you forgot to wipe something that you should have. When going from Cyanogen to Stock I wipe cache, dalvik, data, system, and internal storage. Then I go through the stock installation procedure and then on top of that once it boots I still do a factory reset (which assuming the previous wipes did what was needed probably isn't required).
My Galaxy S5 Plus seems to FC random apps constantly. Even after wiping and installing a custom rom, it still does the same thing.
Any ideas what could be causing this?

try this!
factory reset
format cache
format dalvik
format system
format sd
instal custom rom
factory reset
install gapps
factory reset
format cache
format dalvik
reboot
then fresh install apps from playstore
So is there any difference between a factory reset from the settings or the factory reset from the recovery? Talking about stock here.
Nope, both are going to wipe all the user and system data.
