Problems With Bootlooping

Hi sorry if this has been answered already but i had thought this might help peeps having problems with boot looping i had this problem with wildpuzzle V8.0.8 the solution i used is
1) Remove all data from memory card (backup delete whatever u want)
2) Go to wwwdotsdcarddotorg/consumers/formatter/eula/
3) Download and unzip
4) Run program check all boxes (CAUTION WILL WIPE ALL DATA)
5) Reflash rom
This should solve problems with SD rebooting and bootloops it did mine
Hope this helps

tried this as a last resort... but alas - didn't work at all... ;p still either stuck on splash screen or loops it. this is getting frustrating...

[Q] Strange Problems on my gt540 !! Plzz help me out

I recently found the phone numbers in contacts being displayed like 123-456-789. Previously it was being displayed without "-". I tried to change the locale & regional settings but it didn't work ! Why is it so ? Now After I factory resetted the phone & selected locale & English (US), though this problem got sorted out. I am facing two new problems. My Android market does not update itself !!!!!!!!! & the progress of the ongoing downloads does not show/appears blank. I am very worried. plzz tell me what to do !! i am using stock 2.1 V20c (India) ROM in my rooted gt540. Previously I never had any issues with my phone. Plzz help it's urgent. I have tried to master reset my phn 5 times hoping the problem wud get solved but it didn't.
New problem- new downloads take a lot of time to start after they have been queued for download

well... I`am not sure if this will help....but i had some issues with market not updating itsef and displaying wrong letters in system...so i formated my system, boot, data and cache partition through clockworkmod recovery and then restored from backup, after that everything worked fine...now, I assume you don`t have a backup, or clockworkmod recovery....or do you??

No.. I dnt hav a backup. Recently when I rooted my phone I deleted everything in the system cache folder and also removed some built in apps like SNS,layar,task killer, vid editor and wapedia thinking this wud free up internal memory. I think that is where the prob originated. Now tell me wat to do...

Try to flash ur phone with M6 or something like that...
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App

I would reinstall the operating system (and i suggest you to do that)....first install rom manager from market.. if you can..then while still conected to internet install clockworkmod recovery (you`ll see an optyion in rom manager) when you do that..try to boot into recovery by presing power button (first shutdown your phone.....) and home button, when it turns on(holding) if you get something new...a menu, that`s recovery... now go and make a backup of you existing system....that way even if you make some bad choices you can always get your system back.........from this point you can put any ROM you like.... just download wanted ROM put it on the root(outside of any folder) of your sdcard ond go into recovery and choose instal from .zip.........I don`t have the time to search the stock 2.1 ROM v20c for you to install...you could try google
EDIT: here you can find all ROM-s, even a backup of 2.1

@ssik -- thanku so much 4 d detailed info..buddy.. as far as the complete list of original stock ROM's link goes... I already hav the link.. so u didn't hav to search it 4 me...anyways since u hav already done..thanx a lot..i owe u a lot 4 dat. so dont get disgusted..since I am new to this modding thing I feel frightened to hav my phn bricked while flashing...so I was asking 4 any othr alternative.

How to select my device in rom manager ? Since gt540 is not present in device list ? Does my phn's firmware needs to be fastboot enabled so that I can install clockwork ?

you welcome @sujitmohanty .....while in a rom manager (conected to internet aswel) just press flash clockworkmod recovery, wait till its finished and then try to boot into recovery mod as described, if that doesn`t work then we`ll do something else.... let me know if it works... and ask for any help you need... I was also as frightened as you in my beginnings )

ok dear..got it ! I wil be definitely doing it but today. I will be carrying it out tmrw cozz now its 8.23 p.m here in india and I am feeling bit tired. aft I do it, I wil b informing u in this thread or thru PM. till then take care.. and lastly once again thank u very very much for lending ur support and instilling confidence in me.

The guy above is telling you BS. You cannot flash clockwork on our device through ROM manager. It must be flashed in fastboot.

I think there is but it is untested and only just my theory.
Also, it doesn't matter what fastboot rom you flash, they all work the same, regardless of country etc
EDIT: Look at this..

he could also use a program on the market called yaffsexpert with the recovery_clockwork_2.5.1.8_swift.img ----> ***.mediafire.com/?sax544hf3cye3gx (www insted of ***)
on root his sdcard.... less risky for him

[Q] Need some help with boot loop on ColdFusionX

Well, i've flashed my Blade with ColdFusionX ROM and everything seems to be great.
Then i decided to restart it and it stays on boot loop. It can be solved by entering on recovery and wiping the Dalvik Cache, but i want to know if there is another way to solve it? It's kinda annoying making it everytime i need to restart or shutdown.
Another question is for a good app to make USB Thetering, since the one on this ROM works but drains battery faster then USB provides.
Thanks and sorry about the bad english.
link to ROM's page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539

Update:
Now things are worst then ever. I've updated ROM Manager to last version and then i can't enter on recover anymore and cellphone can't start.
Is there any way to flash the recovery from outside the phone?

Method 2.

Do you have Blade drivers for Windows 8, that drivers are for 7 and they aren't working.

Tryed method 2 but it didn't work, adb can't see my device connected. Now i'm trying method 3.
How can I know what TPT should i use?
Sorry for being so noob.

If you got your phone with 2.1 it is gen1, if 2.2 it is gen2.
Therefore, use gen2.

It is with 4.0.4 gen2, but i don't know if i have to use chinese or european TPT.
It was manufactured in china, so I use the Chinese TPT, right? Seems obvious but i'm kinda scared.

Update: Problem Solved!
I turned it in recovery mode, and it got stuck as was happening before. So I left it a while and when i plugged him on the computer, adb recognized it and I could use the fastboot of method 2.
But i still got the problem with the Boot-looping on ColdFusionX that I said on first post. Is there a way to fix this? (It can be fixed wiping the Dalvik Cache every boot, but it is annoying)

Flash another rom.

PLEASE HELP. Boot loops to recovery

I installed the HORSEMAGEDDON ROM and it worked - for the most part. But it kept giving me annoying errors about different apps that were attempting to update every time I turned it on. So I tried to restore my backup that I had made with CWM 6.0.2.8. However the backup apparently did not restore properly because it now boot loops back into CWM any time I try to start it. I get the errors:
E:Can't open cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open cache/recovery/last_log
So I tried to reflash HORSEMAGEDDON but it still loops back into the CWM recovery screen.
I have wiped everything according to the instructions on the HORSEMAGEDDON thread.
HELP!! This happened to me on another U8800-51 phone and I wound up hard bricking it trying to get back to stock.

Anybody???
Does anybody have any ideas on how I can fix this?

Did you wipe cache/dalvik cache?

Yes. I did a wipe of data and factory reset as well.

What I would do is get an SD card with a custom rom on it and try installing it from recovery menu

Obviously you have been having problems with that rom, so go with something different.

Okay. Here is what I did step by step:
1. I was on Stock 2.2.2 Froyo and flashed HORSEMAGEDDON successfully. But I had some errors related to updates since it was such an old ROM the updates were all for much newer versions of the apps tied to 4.x.x.
2. I attempted to restore my backup made with CWM 6 to return to the stock. It said it completed successfully but when I rebooted it just looped into the recovery screen with the error messages posted in my first post.
3. So I tried to reflash HORSEMAGEDDON and it said it completed successfully. But it still bootloops into recovery.
4. I can access most of the features of the recovery. I can access the pink screen and swap recovery versions. I can access my SD card from my PC when I mount it from recovery.
5. Yes, I did do full wipes with each attempt to reflash.
The ROM was not the problem. It worked and worked well other than update issues for apps. It was only after attempting to restore to stock I ran into issues.
The problem appears to be something was corrupted when I tried to restore my backup, even though it said it completed successfully.
So if I try to flash yet another custom ROM, even if I could find one I trust given all of the version issues etc., I don't think it would act any differently. But if somebody can recommend one I am all ears. Keep in mind I have a -51 phone so it will have to be for that or the PRO.
Given that, how can I get back to stock? Am I the only person who has ever had this problem? I don't believe that is the case, so somebody must know how to fix it or can point me to a procedure to repair the internal memory.
Help!!

None of the fixes on this link seem to apply to my situation.
When I said "bootloop" I may have misused the term. What happens is I power up, it goes to logo screen for about 10 seconds, shuts down and restarts to logo screen then goes into recovery after about 5 seconds. From other info that I have found it is due to a corrupt bootloader and I need to reflash the bootloader. Problem is, reflashing the bootloader i.e. CWM, does no good at all.
I am also hampered by lack of info specific to the -51 model. And I cannot find a copy of the stock ROM anywhere that is for the -51.
So essentially I am screwed. All of that said, I have found a new phone for $40.00 so all is not lost. It's a U8800 but not the -51 or PRO. I don't plan on customizing it, I'll just stick with stock. After trashing two phones even after following the advice to "BACKUP" I think enough is enough. Backing up did me no good whatsoever in both cases.
In my estimation, the culprit is CWM, or at least the versions I used.
If anybody has any advice I'm all ears.
