You are probably stuck on boot loop.
try this:
1. wipe data/factory reset
2. wipe cache partition
3. advanced ==> wipe dalvik cache
then reinstall the rom.
you need also to be sure that you have the right CWM partition.
Try to follow the instructions of the developer
I hope this will help you

I can reboot into Bootloader, but when I try to boot into Recovery it kicks me back into bootloader. Im using Rom Manager and Clockworks. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.
Use amon-ra its 10 times better than clockwordmod just download this http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=PC36IMG.zip
drag it to sd card and go to into bootloader thern fastboot and it should say update
Step one, get rid of Rom Manager.
Step Two, flash Amon Ra.
Fixed....
That did it. Thanks guys. Follow up question..do I do a full wipe or Delvick- Cache wipe when flashing Roms? Im used to letting ROM Manager do everything for me that im not 100% sure.
Do a full wipe User Data/Factory reset, then wipe each sub-category, EXCEPT SD Card.
Heck, I re-wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache twice.

My suggestion is that your read through the forums here as there are several "beginner guides" that will get you started.
After you installed your first custom rom the process proves itself to be easy:
- Flash a stock ROM (2.2 nordic)
- Acquire root using SuperOneClick
- Instal Clockworkmod recovery/2ndInit (I prefer 2ndInit)
- Transfer the nandroid backup (.zip file) to the root of your SD card
- Reboot phone when led turns blue hit volume down
-Wipe data
-Wipe cache
-Wipe Dalvik (It's under advanced)
-Restore -> select update zip from sdcard
- Browse to the nandroid backup file you put on your sdcard in step 4
Done
Hey guys,
I've tried to flash DarkSide preFinal on my Atrix, now the phone is stuck on "Unlocked, Dual Core"-Screen.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded latest DarkSide and saved it to internal SD
Factory Reset via Recovery Console
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flashed the zip file
the process seemed to go through just fine, now when I'm trying to boot the phone it is stuck at the "Dual Core"-screen
Any ideas on how to solve this? I tried to factory-reset and wipe several times, still stuck
Any help is appreciated!
1. Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. Are you using a CWM-based recovery?
If you have answered yes to both 1 and 2 then:
3. Have you tried flashing the zip from the external SD?
4. Did you try to flash anything else after flashing the ROM while still in the same recovery session?
(If you answered "Yes" to #4 then re-flash the rom by itself and boot at least once before flashing anything else)
EDIT: Ignore question #1, I just realized you mentioned "Unlocked" on the boot logo.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I reflashed with Wet Dream from the external SD (newer is always better, right? ).
Everything is working now
Seems like being a great ROM.

how long did you let it sit at the loading screen?
Usually when I have boot loops, I let it sit on the loading screen for awhile(2-4 minutes). If it still doesnt boot, then I do a battery pull, and then usually after that it boots.
And if it doesn't boot just reboot into recovery mode, wipe cache, data and dalvik and reinstall the ROM again.
Sent From Rob's RP-Hybrid Atrix.
When installing any new rom, it can take a while to build up the dalvik cache again. I've had it take up to 10 min before. Best to just walk away and come back and check on it.
Hi all,
So I'm facing a problem with my Defy after flashing some ROMs, as detailed in this post.
Since I've made Nandroid-backups when everything was OK, my natural answer was to restore the phone to a previous state using it.
But for some reason after restoring a Nandroid (I've tried with both I have) my phone stucks with the Google logo and never finish booting...
Those are the steps I follow to restore a Nandroid:
1. Boot into Recovery Mode
2. Wipe data/factory reset
3. Wipe cache partition
4. Wipe dalvik cache
5. Restore system & data (choose nandroid by date)
6. Reboot system now
Am I doing something wrong? Why can't I restore my phone to a previous date?
Any idea is greatly appreciated...
You might have flashed gb kernel ROMS as well. Probably now you are coming from a GB kernel build to a froyo kernel build.
You need follow these steps, restore system+data, boot, devtree, and optionally recovery. Check if you have boot.img, devtree.img files in your nandroid. You should use cwm recovery which has these options to restore, they will present in Advanced restore.

Thank you. I would've tried this. But yesterday night I did a full SBF so that I could restart using the phone. So I've lost access to root and CMW. Will bring those back when I have a chance and, then, ROMize it all over again...
Cheers.

Try using the normal option after the restore in the boot option in bootmenu rather than 2nd-init
