[Q] NC boots to the home screen, then locks up. Strategies? - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It boots to the home screen, which looks normal, works for about a second, and then locks up when the SD card icon in the systembar appears. Doesn't matter whether there's an SD card inserted.
edit: Never mind. I just flashed a nightly over it and it fixed the issue. Mods, feel free to delete this topic.

rebooting problems

Ok. I am running CoreDroid V0.8 on my htc hd2. Everything is running great. The only problem is this is like my 4th time putting it on my phone. Reason being is that when my phone shuts off and I turn it back on, I can never get it to reboot back up. It gets stuck on the black htc screen and never comes up. Thus I have to remove battery and then reformat sd card and reinstall the Android. I need to know once and for all what to do to make sure I can reboot Android if ever I have to shut off my phone( i.e. system freeze, power loss, etc.)

Not booting all the way

My android was working just fine until i restarted my phone now when i load up haret it shows the htc quietly brilliant screen then my phone turns off, anyway to fix it? i even formatted my card and tried again and still nothing
i'm having similar issues, earlier I got 'android.process.acore' force close, so I deleted my data.img in android folder, now phone shows nothing after "android" logo
worked fine all last week, second time this is happening
UPdate: nevermind, i don't think it really turns off, the screen turns off, after about 10 minutes, i pressed home button and it was fine
corrupted android build in my opinion, can happen when installing and uninstalling apps and games too often, try reformatting the sd card, and when backing up data from softwares like titanium backup, just make sure not to backup system settings or do just a clean install, and backup sms and messages from mybackpro instead.

Help! stuck in loop and power doesn't work! (SD card?)

Can anyone help, really want to avoid wiping the tablet if possible!
I have Vegacomb (latest) installed
I noticed a week or so ago it kept turning itself on (whether charging or not) from being totally turned off. Occasionally after booting the power button wouldn't turn the screen off.
Now on boot it shows the bee logo, then vegacomb text exploding, then back to the bee and in a loop.
If I take the SD card out (everything installed on there using Links2SD) then it loads into Android but no apps work as they are on the SD.
However, when in the loop or if I take the SD out and go into the OS the power button doesn't work so I cannot turn the screen off or shut the tablet down, I have to wait for the battery to die
Any ideas?
Ok, i just booted it with no SD card. It booted but resets the time to midnight jan 1st 2009 each time and if i try using it then the power menu keeps popping up and most of the time it just restarts (doesn't seem to "shut down" just goes instantly off and then boots up again
Any ideas?
Hardware issue?
Easy to fix?

Constant Reboot 4.4.2

So my phone was constantly rebooting for about an hour until i removed the SD Card after a hard reboot (Power + Volume Up). A normal Hard Reset did nothing. This has happened several times before, but the problem went away, this time I had to remove the SD Card apparently. I use Apex for my homescreen if that helps at all. I don't use a custom ROM, everything is stock.
Sometimes when it reboots it will instantly go to the DROID boot animation, sometimes no audio would play and it would lag at first for a second, then suddenly it will play the animation at lightning fast speeds.
Another issue is at first, for about a minute or so, I CANNOT lock the screen. I can hold the power button down to get to the power off menu, but not lock it.
Again, The problem has stopped, but it WILL return. I was wondering if anyone can help solve this?
P.S. I'm on Verizon

[Q] Recovering files from messed up SD card and other problems with GT-i9506.

Hi!
So around christmas time my phone stock Galaxy S4 GT-i9506 4.4.2 started getting weird.
I kept wondering why my sound profile kept changing to something else eventough I've set it ie. for vibrate.
One day I noticed what was going on.
Everytime I open "settings" no matter how, through the gear in the upper corner of the notification drop down screen or from the app drawer, whatever...
My phone changes the sound profile automatically to silent. Once I exit the "settings" area alltogether the sound profile automatically changes to sound again.
No matter what profile I had to begin with it changes to silent when entering the "settings" area and to sound when exiting the "settings" area.
This problem still exists.
If i mess around in the sound settings area, everytime I open a setting to change, the sound profile goes to sound
momentarily until I back out from the menu to somewhere else in the general settings area, then it instantly goes back to silent again.
I haven't installed any apps that mess with sound settings.
Problem number 2 :
My phone started to randomly get really hot during which the battery drained really fast. And sometimes the phone would freeze.
Shutting down and starting the phone always made the phone work as normal again.
Next phase was that the phone started to randomly get hot again as before but this time the phone went to a boot loop.
The phone kept restarting itself over and over again.
In fact my aunts Samsung phone (don't know the model) started doing the same thing recently. I told her to remove the SD card and the phone was back to normal, so I guess this is a common problem with Samsung phones.
Next phase was that on top of the boot loop the phone kept unmounting and mounting the SD card. A Kingston micro SDHC 16GB class 4 card that wasn't too full.
Shutting down by removing the battery and starting again made the phone stable for a while. While the phone was stable "Gallery" functioned normally as any way of browsing the files on the SD card.
I still figured that the SD card was the problem, I removed it and the phone was back to normal apart from the sound profile problem.
Now to the things I need help the most.
I really need the files from the SD card but the SD Card wont open anymore in any computer, card reader or phone I've tried.
How can I recover the files from the SD card? A file recovering program perhaps?
What program is the best for this? It doesn't have to be free.
Also I guess an factory reset would fix the sound profile issue and some other occasional problems, but I would like to keep my phone as it is .
Is there a way to backup the whole phone, and do a factory reset and then restore every app, setting, file etc. I MEAN EVERYTHING back as they were? I just wan't my phone as it is without these bugs.
You can factory reset your phone but you can't recover everything. This is the idea of reset to get a fresh phone...
