I am going to throw it at something... - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why does my N7 seem to get stuck on the Google Splash screen constantly? I rebooted it earlier and it got stuck on the splash screen, now I can't even get it to boot up. It was running just fine, just having a problem with my works Wifi so I rebooted...
It has done this in the past a lot and the only way I was successful in getting it unstuck was by booting to bootloader and "fastboot reboot"
Am I the only one with this problem? I might have to take it back...

Your not the only one it happened to me a couple times if i recall. Sometimes it would just stay stuck on that google screen which I am really starting to dislike at the moment. starting to miss my boot animations on my atrix lol. But yea a hard reset or loading bootloader usually fixes it. Are you on custom rom? I was on Clean 1.1 before mines went dark.

nexus 7 boot loop of death...

my shiny new nexus seems to be stuck in the boot loop of death...
it starts up, shows the google logo, then the nexus logo and then it just starts over... rinse/repeat etc...
i can get into the bootloader no problem, but since i have no roms installed my options there are limited to restarting the bootloader (does nothing to fix the problem), recovery (hangs on the google logo forever and does nothing, but at least does not loop) and shutdown...
again, i have no roms installed (haven't had a chance to yet)... this is pretty much a stock device with some games/apps installed from the market...
i got my nexus about 3 weeks ago from microcenter, so i have just under a week to fix this or i will have to exchange it for another unit...
so how bad is this ? fixable, or should i not even bother and just take a ride and exchange it ?
Completely fixable.
Have a look at wugfresh's toolkit if you havnt seen it yet.
It allows you to flash stock from bootloader mode which will wipe all your data, but fix the problem

Semi bricked?

Last night after a good night of working with my tablet out on the job I came home and noticed it was running a little sluggish so I rebooted it. It then proceeded to hang on the bootloader screen. I tried flashing into recovery and wiping and reinstalling but it still stays hung up on the bootloader screen. Getting into the recovery boot loader it says the secondary kerlel akb has an issue or something. Is there a way to Odin this thing back to stock? It's not totally bricked I can still get into recovery just can't get it to boot into the second kernel or whatever it means. I can get the exact terminology if someone needs it but I have been bricked worse than this before its just weird it won't fix itself after I re install a new ROM.

I am on the Skillraz V8 boot loader to be exact, and thats the first screen it gets stuck on..
I just tried flashing a stock un rooted ics zip but it still hangs on the first screen after rebooting after the install, which seemed to take ok... and it doesnt change my recovery or anything back to stock.

[Q] I somehow lost my recovery?

So I was running CWM (Philz) I believe, and I had been running into issues while on rooted 4.2.2 D800 stock ROM. There were force closes and random reboots, etc. I've only installed xposed mods. I've also used android tuner to adjust some of the build.prop and kernel presets.
However, after my phone got stuck in what I thought was a boot loop, I finally got it up and running. What happened next was odd. I tried booting into recovery -> the "LG" splash screen showed up and it went into another infinite boot loop.
I'm assuming I somehow corrupted or lost my recovery. Any advice on what to do? I don't know if I should follow the original instructions for flashing a recovery here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2633150.
Edit: Jesus christ my phone infuriates and confuses the hell out of me. After attempting to enter the recovery again, I am now stuck in a permanent boot loop. The last time I fixed it was by turning my phone off....and then *WAITING*.
What? That doesn't make sense you say? Of course it doesn't. But that's still what worked. I waited 12 hours, and then tried turning it on again. When I did, oh look, the AT&T screen!
CONFUSING. help please...
Double edit (Hard Mode): Going into download mode when I'm in this constant bootloop = nothing happens. That little icon that says "Download Mode" with the 5 blue circles just stays there, and my laptop ends up not recognizing anything. This happened the last time too, and all I was able to see on my laptop was "QHSUSB_BULK". I thought this meant that I would have to do a complete wiping process through Linux (found on another thread somewhere), but apparently waiting 12 hours also fixed the problem.

Samsung galaxy s5 stuck on bootloop with no recovery mode?

Got a problem with my samsung galaxy s5. A few days ago it was working fine but occasionally randomly rebooted itself. It was be on a bootloop then it will boot up normallly after while.
Randomly the phone had ended up in a bootloop which it is not able to recover from.
i tried using the recovery mode, but that doesnt work. The phone will boot up the first logo after while, but usually it will boot up to a white screen, then will constantky repeat and never end. The screen is working fine, i do not know why it is booting to white screen.
My phone did that with stock ROM bootloop, I found a good ROM and cm12, soz I didn't answer your question that well. But to me the white screen your getting sounds likes you've deleted your boot loader, but don't take my word for it as I'm not a XDA developer, but I'd try and reload boot loader, but wait till you get a reply from xda

Stock phone never finishes boot?

So I'm on my 2nd day of owning my 6P, and it rebooted without prompting at some point when it was in my pocket. After entering my PIN it just sits there on the animated Google logo, getting pretty hot but never making it past the boot screen.
I'm planning on trying a factory reset and seeing if it happens again since I was going to unlock the bootloader anyway, but I fear I've hit a hardware issue. Anyone seen this before?
i've had the same thing happen to me although this was after i restarted the phone. Been stuck on the animation part of the boot screen for a while now, wiping cache hasn't helped. Don't really want to do a factory wipe as I have a lot of stuff on the phone I need to backup first.
