I flashed Quarx's CM10 ROM and it runs completely fine at first, but then when I reboot my phone it gets stuck at the splash screen and won't load the operating system. The only way I've found to fix it is to reset to factory defaults, which isn't really an ideal solution as I don't want to have to reinstall everything every time I reboot my phone.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do?

Just clear dalvik cache in custom recovery. You can find it in "Advance" menu. Dalvik cache has to be clean before first boot. You can wipe all caches just in case. After this try to reboot a couple of times to see if this issue persists.

I have cleared all caches and nothing has worked. I've left it to try and boot for at least an hour several times, but it just doesn't want to boot.
I'm only having this problem on CM10, by the way.. 7.2 still works.
Strange issue
Check after reboot in BootMenu (in 'boot' section) if it still boots in 2nd_boot and not in 2nd_init or normal. Normally if it boots in 2nd_boot at first, it should stay in 2nd_boot.

Try a format to ext4 from bootmenu.
After doing this reboot and wipe data once, then it should work fine

I had this problem few months ago...
I have tried everything (in my opinion) and only flashin with sbf file helped, then installing Quark's rom again...
Well, sbf is the surest way, but the method posted above I've used successfully to downgrade from cm10 to miui gb

It boots into CM10 then I when I restart the phone it gets stuck on the splash screen again.
And what happens when only format to ext4+ cache wipe(no wipe data).
Also cm10 for me sometimes hangs or boot loops on first run, removing battery and powering up manually fixes the issue

Same thing happens, it just hangs.
It runs perfectly fine on the first run, but then when I reboot it it just hangs at the boot splash screen every time I restart it.

Then you can't boot(after the first boot) even after formatting to ext4, data wipe+ cache wipe again?

Yeah, that's right. It's really weird, though.. because CM7.2 works flawlessly.
Really very weird. Does the booting problem occur even if you make no changes to the filesystem and simply reboot after first flash?
You can also try a sbf flash, though it probably won't help much

Okay, I tried that and I think I figured out the problem. My phone is carrier unlocked and I'm with a different provider, so I have to flash a soft sim unlock on my phone which is causing boot problems on CM10.. any ideas on what I should do?
If your phone is carrier unlocked, then you don't need to flash any unlock

My phone is locked to a carrier, "unlocked" was a typo.

So I rooted and switched ROM's many times on my MT3g, and now that i'm trying it on my MT4g, I'm having hella trouble.
So I got to S=off and its perarooted now, with ClockworkMod Recovery image: 3.0.2.4. I tried to update the Kernel to KB-Kernel-2.4.8-108-CFS-SV... put my phone with the stock ROM into a boot loop, so i restored it. Tried to update the Kernel then immediately install CM-7.0.0... again put it into a boot loop, and had to restore. What am i missing here? Should be partitioning like with my MT3g? Should i be wiping? Is there something else I should be installing?

That's your problem. You can't flash a kernel before the ROM, because the ROM's standard kernel immediately overwrites it. Try wiping all 3 items in the recovery menu, flash CM7, and then let it boot. Once CM7 is stable, try flashing your kernel. Just make sure it is compatible.
Sweet, thanks. Hopefully it works.

Wipe factory data
Wipe catche
Then go into advanced wipe dalvik
Should take 30 secs max to wipe, 5 mins max to install and reboot
Then flash your Rom and reboot. Once its rebooted then try flashing the kernel. There is no reason that won't work assuming you do have s-off

If what Mark said doesn't work, I'd look to a corrupt recovery image, or more likely a bad download or SD card.
Aww... I'd be hella sad if I had a bad sdcard. My problem was that I wasn't wiping the correct things, but now thanks to you great people I finally can flash again! Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Glad you got it working. If Mark or I have helped you, maybe you could hit the thanks button.
Make sure when you do a kernel you wipe cache and than davlvik and than flash the first time kernel and than repeat the process and than flash your desired kernel.

I've just flashed my mb525 the the latest nightly cm10. I'm having a few issues with it tbf, main thing though is that after I set the phone up after 1st boot (contacts, wifi settings, etc, etc). When I then reboot the phone everything is lost and have to start again?
I had the same issue when I owned an LG GT540. Try fixing permissions or wiping cache. I think it'll help. Yet, if not, try to perform a totally clean install with formatting EXT3 and wiping everything (barring your SD card )
Format to ext4, not ext3

Go to custom recovery and do it. It only deletes user data, not the rom itself

Didnt work coz as i flashed the rom at startup it has began with this error

I'm sorry, but I didn't get what you are saying. Data wipe didn't work because you got the same error, or are you unable to wipe data and cache for some reason?
Sent from my MB526 using Tapatalk 2
What i ment was as i flashed it new, at startup.the error accured.
So wipe data didnt work for me or fix permissions or flashing again
Just wondering if there is still problematic with wiping cache by it self

yah seems to be so, but there are some small fixes, what i did was followed the instructions of another thread.
boot up into cwm
goto mounts and storage
click format /system
click yes
it took the same time it takes to wipe cache....like forever, but after it was done it sped up the process
im thinking of going over to TWRP and see how it is, they seem to have a fix.
I have stock ROM, not unlocked, not rooted.
Have just OTA updated to Android 4.4. It was successful.
After that I tried to switch runtime to ART. The first reboot was successful. But runtime is still Dalvik. So I tried to switch to ART again.
Now it cannot bootup. It stucked with the four-color-circle.
I tried fastboot mode. But still cannot start.
Is it totally bricked? What can I do next? I think I haven't enabled USB debugging...
You can get into the stock recovery and try clearing cache or if that fails then try factory reset.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Factory reset will wipe all your data, wipe cache will clear the apps cache so hopefully it will it fix it. Instruction to get into recovery here.

I go to the recovery mode, it says "No command".
With stock recovery once you see the android with the red exclamation you need to press power and volume up at the same time to see the commands. It's a little tricky and it might take a few tries but it does work
