Won't boot in what way? Can you get into fastboot and/or recovery? Since you're asking about CWM, I'm assuming you can get into it.
If you did a Nandroid backup (the main point of CWM for me), you could try just restoring it. If you didn't, I'd try a wipe all settings and then reboot. You should be able to get back to a virgin state on the main OS that way.
I can get into it, the problem is i erase all data on my phone. Thanks in advance!
???
Is there any way i can get my phone back up and running restoring everything from clockworkmod?

I'm still confused what your problem is.
You say the phone won't boot, but then you talk about erased data.
What exactly did you do to the phone? What was the last few things you did before you "broke" it?
What happens when you try to boot the phone (ie., it's powered off and you press the power button)? How far in the boot process does it go?
If your problem is that the phone boots but all your data is gone, there's no way to get back unless it auto-syncs down from Google, or you used a backup program like Titanium, or you made a nandroid backup in CWM.
If you made a nandroid, you should just be able to boot into CWM, select backup and restore and then restore your backup.
This is what happened....
I tried to replace my fonts in system that are supposed to work on a different phone. Then when i tried to boot up the phone was stuck on the silver google logo. Now, after that i went into clock work recovery and formated everything in the mounts and storage menu. After reinstalling the phones boot img, my phone freezes at the google logo. I can still get into the clockworkmod recovery. I never backed it up, but tried to use a nandroid someone posted online but i get a md5 mismatch.
Again, thank you for all your help!

The Modaco rom(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883985) should work just fine. Put it on the USB storage then in Clockwork go to "Install from zip."
i have a problem almost like that but my rom manager open but wont even backup current rom or anything, my titanium back doesn't backup either. it said i could not acquire root privileges, this app will not work, please vertify that you rom is rooted and includes busybox, i have busybox and it's rooted. i guess this happen when i update the google update last night from rom manager. what should i do

Known issue. There is a thread in the Development section(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884499). The OTA "broke root."
Ouch. Now I understand.
In the future, always make a nandroid backup before messing around with things, easiest way to recover.
I see you're looking for help in this thread. Maybe they can help you.
You could also try flashing Doc's or Paul's roms also in that section.

Did you wipe/factory reset before attempting to install? I realize that you're pretty much wiped at the moment, but always best to start with that.

You've tried another NAND backup, besides the one that MD5 mismatched, yar? Be careful not to rename it, as that can cause the mismatch.
Nope
Nope i didnt try any...
Do i have to rename it to update.zip?

The custom rom? No, you just go into recovery, wipe/factory reset, install from SD card, then navigate to where you put the .zip on the SD card.
I see you did try the 2.3.1 NAND backup in the development section. Try downloading it again on your PC, unzip it, then place the new folder on the clockworkmod's backup folder on your SD card. Again, do not rename it.
Im trying it now.

Be warned that if you do get the NAND to restore, you may lose clockwork recovery. I know I did when I first tried to use it.
Don't panic though, because you can fastboot flash clockwork back on from the bootloader.

You need to DL the whole rom, first backup your apps with something like titanium...Then goto CWM and wipe everything, its recommended by evil.

Not only recommended, the install process automatically wipes data and cache.

THX I FIGURED THAT, IT'S JUST TAKE SO LONG TO DOWNLOAD FROM MY PHONE.
Hi guys, I flashed a jamal's 4.3 rom coming from omega's google edition rom and i did the usual stuff like I always have factory reset etc.. and i reboot the system and fix permissions as usual and my phone is now stuck on the omega's spinning boot up animation with the phone vibrating.
HELP!!!
Re-download the rom, could be a bad download. Did you check the md5sum?

It's a long alpha-numeric number that is associated with the file. Next time you download a rom look for it on the download page. When you down load a file the md5sum should match the original indicating a good download. There are apps that check the md5 and most file managers will show it in properties
ok, but how do i get out of the bootloop

If you've done the factory reset and that doesn't get you out I'm guessing the rom you flashed was a bad download. You made a nandroid backup before you flashed the rom, right. Boot back into recovery and restore it. Then re download the rom and try it again

Live and learn, I was afraid of that. You're probably going to have to use Odin then which will return you back to stock. And then start everything over again. Have you let the boot loop go for like 5 minutes. Sometimes it can take that long on first boot, but the vibration isn't normal.

Try flashing it again then. Do all the wipes first then flash it and then flash gapps. Did you flash the gapps package? I'm not sure what rom you're trying to flash but it probably requires gapps too.

gapps isn't on my phone so i cant flash it. i've flash it about ten times now and it won't work. it must be a bad download even though i flashed it before. after i flash the rom, it shows the boot animation of the rom i had been using before. werid huh? the only option i have now is to buy a micro sd card and put the rom on that and flash it that way. i really don't want to use odin.

You're just going to give up? Seriously? It's really easy to flash stock fw with Odin. And also easy to root afterwards, to each their own.

What do you mean giving up? I'm going to wait until my microSD card comes and then I will transfer the zip file that way. I don't have time to fiddle with odin. Besides I don't even have a pc, i have bootcamp, which takes a year to boot.
I have been trying to go back to Marshmallow from the N beta 3 preview for a few days now, but it doesn't seem to be working any way I try. I originally tried to use the OTA method by unenrolling my device because that is the way I got the preview to begin with. Every time I tried that, though, it would end in an error after trying to install the update. So i tried flashing the Marshmallow images manually using fastboot. I flashed everything, including the bootloader, radio, recovery, boot, system, vendor, cache, and userdata, but when I tried rebooting, it would be stuck on the Google logo. Can someone please tell me if I am doing something wrong or can maybe help somehow? Thanks in advanced!

Not trying to say you're lying but are you sure you flashed everything? Are you using the flash all script or are you doing each image manually?
Mainly you need to flash boot, system, vendor, and userdata. Userdata just wipes that partition.
The N bootloader and radio should be compatible with the latest marshmallow release.
My best guess is if you used the flash all it didn't work, because it never works.
If not that then maybe you got a corrupted file? Try redownloading it and try again.

Nah I don't use the flash all script. I flashed everything manually and I didn't forget anything. I actually tried this twice and used a new file the second time so it's really weird. I have no idea what's wrong

Try this command first: "fastboot format userdata" - then flash all images, exept "userdata.img".

So you wiped everything and used that ? Can we just flash that or does it have to be side loaded I'm.on N it works but I don't wanna go back to MM cuz it's causing issues to others from what I heard I can keep the bootloader and radio but everything else you gotta flash would you lose root or have to re unlock the bootloader?

Okay so I'm not the only one who's having this problem. Did the sideloading method format the sd card?

Download the file and rename it whatever you want. I changed it to update.zip.
Go to stock recovery and then select update from adb.
Then type ---> adb sideload "name of zip".
You will then be downgraded to stock MM with everything working.
Well at least that's what worked for me. Because I was on Android N Preview 3. It was too buggy so I tried to manually flash 6.0.1. but kept getting stuck on the white Google logo. The above method worked for me.
Are you rooted still? Someone told me if I'm going to pure rom all I need to do is wipe like normal like when you u flash a ROM and with gaps and I'll be fine with the vender image . Or do I have to do it your way . Did you go back to stock mm or a rom ?

After flashing some custom roms and playing around with the phone, and booting to the Android Recovery, I've noticed at the bottom of the window this message;
Supprted API: 3
E:Failed to clear BCB message: failed to open /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc: No such file or directory
I flashed back Nougat to test the Recovery and there were no messages. So I'm wondering why flashing a custom rom it's messing something up?
Thanks

Does anyone know anything about this?

Doing a normal flash of Stock works, if it didn't, I'm assuming I'd see this message in the recovery and I don't.
I only see this message in the recovery on custom roms, not sure if it was all of them I tested, but it seemed like it was, last I remember...
Anyone please?
I can't figure out why this is appearing in the custom roms I flash, but not Stock Oreo.
