[Q] No more bootanimation nore Download Mode !

Hello,
First, I tried Der Kernel, which made my bootanimation (the one in /system/media) disappeard. When the phone boots, it boot well, but instead of the bootanimation I got a black screen.
So I restored my Nandroid backup. Still no bootanimation.
Then I wanted to try new Codename Android ROM, so I used ROM-wiper, and flashed Codename... which never boot...
The only thing I can boot now is my nandroid backup, without bootanimation.
I can access to recovery (TWRP 1.x), but can't go to Download Mode.
I tried Vol up + Vol down + power when plugged and unplugged.
Also tried Vol down + power, plugged or unplugged.
I'm stuck ! Please help me !

That's a normal thing. You can only get Trinity boot animation when you are using cm9 rom. But for the test versions(check the Trinity kernel thread), it seems boot animation works for roms other than cm9.

All you have to do is reflash the rom and kernel without wiping. Fresh install isn't required.

My problem is not really about the bootanimation, my problem is that I can't boot on anything else than my nandroid backup.
Installing a new rom don't boot at all.
Plus I can't acces to download mode anymore.

Nobody had this problem ? Don't know why I flashed this kernel, happenned to me already on galaxy s, but download mode was still here...

One question, what is the download mode you are talking about? Are you talking about boot loader?

Download mode that you can access via Vol up + Vol down + power when plugged
or Vol down + power. In this mode you can flash with Odin. Flashing with Odin fixed the problem on galaxy s.

lg nexus 4 stuck on nexus logo after factory reset

Hi guys. My nexus 4 is rooted. Everything was perfect. I just wanted to do a fresh start. I did factory reset. Then it rebooted. Came to language selection. I selected English and than suddenly screen was black and nothing happened. I restarted again and it stuck on nexus logo. I did downloaded root toolkit 1.63 and it found my model and its selected 4.2.2 automatically. Then it downloaded stock image file and said my device adb error saying need to select USB debugging mode. I can't cause its stuck. Now about the rom it was liquidsmooth rom. Please help me how to go back to stock android 4.2.2. Thanks.

hi,
did u try to wipe cache/dalvik?

Bro I do not know what happened but I did volume up and power for 20 secs and power button again. It showed boot loader mood and switched off the device.

sorry, but for the stock img flash isn't needed just the bootloader mod? The deb mod is useless for this!

Throw it in the trash.

dont use a toolkit, they can create more issues than they are worth. boot into the bootloader, then flash the stock image via fastboot. thats all.

Thanks a lot. I sold it. My bad. Dn wanna use custom rom again.

problem solved.
If you would enter in recovery with latest firefly 3194, push volume down and shutdown buttons.
At the begin it seems phone stucks on boot logo oppo find but wait some minutes without press buttons and it automatically enters in cwm recovery.
Then at reboot, it stucks on that chinese words, to overcame them, I pressed shutdown button with volume down for some seconds, or only shutdown button and then starts.

where you able to get everything sorted?

I've tried every possible way to enter in recovery, and what i've just to do was only to wait more or less 100 sec. However it's strange why phone doesn't enter in recovery via fastboot. When i put commands on cmd, it continues stuck on fastboot mod despite cmd says "rebooting"

I guess i need to hold from flashing firefly

Yeah, got in same situation after firefly OTA update(prev. chinese version), though I got a brick LOL
This was introduced by the 2013.05.09 update(OTA or full ROM) and the trick is indeed to wait a bit more on that screen message, maybe a fellow from China help us understand what it says in that message.

The message u got is put by Oppo to overwrite the custom recovery image with the stock one.

Nexus 4 stuck on boot up.

So suddenly phone died, tried to restart it but its stuck at the loop of Paranoid Android. Battery was still in 40%. Tried to go recovery mode, hold volume down + power button but all it does is go back to the google logo and loop again to the paranoid android and get stuck again.
Tried plugging it to mac, android file transfer says " try reconnecting or restarting your device."
Im on Franco and paranoid.
what to do?
PLEASE HELP.

Not sure if this will work for you, but its worth a try. Attempt holding the power button while its booting up to allow it to turn off (do not let it go when the screen turns black). Then hold volume down and quickly release and re-hold the power button.

The bootloader is the fastboot screen
There you should be able to use ./flash-all.bat (extracted from the stock rom)

Stuck in fastboot

Hi, everyone!
Yesterday I wanted to update my rooted Nexus (2012, Wifi) to 4.3 Android. So I tried a "Back to stock" using Nexus Root Toolkit. After that the Nexus is stuck in fastboot mode, if I turn it on I see the Google logo, but green square with the START appears and the only option that works (other that POWER OFF) is Restart bootloader.
I tried many of the methods (hard reset, fastbooting an img using commands) I found but nothing seems to work, it's just stuck
Cheers

Try with you nexus toolkit to unlock first. This worked for me.

Stuck in fastboot ot fail the ota or bootloop all can be fixed by downloading google stock nexus image and letting toolkit flash it. Ull be going back to stock without root but then u have a working device and a solid bass then start your tinkering again.
I do soft brick just for fun and fix it later so i know how bad things can get.
