Hi people
I tried to installed a theme in Clockwork recovery ("install from SD") which it said was sucsessful, then rebooted, but then it got stuck on the boot screen (the colourful X) AND the led light was on a dark blue colour . After a while I left it as that and I eventually fastbooted it into Clorkworks and wiped the data and rebooted again, but still stuck on the boot screen but the led isnt on any more.
ROM: AOKP
OS: 4.2.2

Try dirty flashing the rom. If that doesnt work do a full wipe and reflash.
This is why you should make nandroids.

what do you mean by full wipe and reflash? I done a data wipe(incl dalvik cache) in recovery already, that didnt help

I have made nandroid backups but they all saved to my pc and not on the nexus, without ADB mode I cant restore the nandroids that are saved to my pc's hard drive

Dirt flash means to only wipe dalvik cache and cache, then flash the rom.
If you have nandroids then you can push them back to your phone. ADB works in recovery mode, so go into there and run:
Code:
adb push \path\to\nandroid /path/to/where/recovery/stores/nandroids
you always want to keep the latest nandroid in your phones storage, a copy of your latest rom and gapps, and a copy of the kernel that you are using. if not, you are just askung for issues. now, wipe data(factory reset), then flash your rom/gapps/kernel, or push your nandroid to your phone via adb.

Hey guys,
I've tried to flash DarkSide preFinal on my Atrix, now the phone is stuck on "Unlocked, Dual Core"-Screen.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded latest DarkSide and saved it to internal SD
Factory Reset via Recovery Console
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flashed the zip file
the process seemed to go through just fine, now when I'm trying to boot the phone it is stuck at the "Dual Core"-screen
Any ideas on how to solve this? I tried to factory-reset and wipe several times, still stuck
Any help is appreciated!
1. Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. Are you using a CWM-based recovery?
If you have answered yes to both 1 and 2 then:
3. Have you tried flashing the zip from the external SD?
4. Did you try to flash anything else after flashing the ROM while still in the same recovery session?
(If you answered "Yes" to #4 then re-flash the rom by itself and boot at least once before flashing anything else)
EDIT: Ignore question #1, I just realized you mentioned "Unlocked" on the boot logo.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I reflashed with Wet Dream from the external SD (newer is always better, right? ).
Everything is working now
Seems like being a great ROM.

how long did you let it sit at the loading screen?
Usually when I have boot loops, I let it sit on the loading screen for awhile(2-4 minutes). If it still doesnt boot, then I do a battery pull, and then usually after that it boots.
And if it doesn't boot just reboot into recovery mode, wipe cache, data and dalvik and reinstall the ROM again.
Sent From Rob's RP-Hybrid Atrix.
When installing any new rom, it can take a while to build up the dalvik cache again. I've had it take up to 10 min before. Best to just walk away and come back and check on it.
Hey, first time posting. Flashed Shooter RLS 4.4 (first ROM) and everything was GREAT. I decided to change the unlock Screen from Android to Honeycomb (because it didn't show who was calling if the phone wasn't unlocked) and it said that I needed to reboot. So I did... And then it's been stuck on the white HTC Evo 4G screen ever since. I took out the battery and tried restarting, nothing. I took out the battery, booted into recovery, attempted to reboot via Amon Ra,...back to the white screen. Anything I can do other than re-flash the ROM? I don't have a nandroid backup (yeah, messed up).
Thanks in advance for the help.
Did you try wiping the Cache and the Dalvik while you were in recovery?

Just did and so far it's back up and running. A lil sluggish right now but I'm sure it'll work itself out.
Appreciate the help.
What exactly does wiping Cache and Dalvik do, if you don't mind explaining.
Thanks either way.
You need to wipe everything before flashing a new rom and cache and dalvik before flashing a theme or mod to a rom, cache and dalvike are temp files that need to be erased and rebuilt, you have to wipe everything else when flashing a new rom to get rid of all the data just like formatting a hard drive before installing a new OS

Since installing CM10, my N7 shuts down/crashes overnight on charge. and after rebooting, still on the charger, it will shutdown again usually. Any ideas what this may be? Never did it on stock. Is there a CM forum to report this?

How did you flash to cm10. I would re download the latest cm 10.. (these change very often ). Do a Full wipe dalvik cache System and so on.. Then Flash the fresh copy.. CAUTION: if YOU WIPE DATA. You will have to adb push cm 10 back to device while in recovery/boot-loader..
Reflash after the full wipe.. Boot back into recovery after flash before first boot wipe dalvik/ cache . then see how it does.. Could be just a bad flash.. Or nothing more then a bug on that nightly of cm 10..
Your request for help is very vague on what and how you flashed. The more info you give the better answers you can receive .....

I will try that. I thought I did a complete wipe, but I may have flashed over another rom. Sorry for the sparse detail, I was seeing if this was a known issue or likely just a possible problem in my install. I'm using twrp recovery, if I wipe data, I can flash from otg-usb mounted flash drive.
Thanks!

Yes you can but make Sure before you wipe data that you can see the otg drive Sometimes from in recovery twrp you need to select reboot reboot recovery.. for it to show up.. not sure if its my drive or what...
Good Luck.

Wiped everything, I did have to do the reboot recovery thing to see the USB, but all went well after that. Seems to have fixed it, it woke fine this morning. Not mush loaded, so if it was an app, I'll find out as I load them back slowly.
Thanks.

Well, I flashed 1130 nightly over 1129 nightly, and it did it again. This is frustrating, What are the correct steps for flashing a nightly?

Hi there
I seem to have a problem flashing 4.3 roms, actually any rom that isn't stock in general.
Right now I am running syzmel's 20E with 1.3ghz overclock version 3.09.
Back to the problem: this is the steps I take to upgrade to any rom: 1. Download (slimbean, vanir asop) 2. flash v20D (unmodded) 3. Root it using Framaroot 4. Install CWM using L7CWM.zip (extracted, then clicked on flash bootloader, flash recovery, and then booted into recovery) 5. Boot into CWM 6. Click on factory reset and reset 7. Go into mounts and storage and format /system 8. Go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache. 9. Flash either 4.3 version slimbean or Vanir ASOP (tell me which is better) 9. Flash gapps (Slimbean: Slim AIO minimal Gapps, Vanir: 4.3 minimal Gapps which is found in the Vanir ASOP page) 10. Factory reset again 11. Wipe dalvik 12. Reboot
Now as soon as I reboot, either it stays rebooting, or boots once and when you reboot it stays at the boot loading page (slimbean logo, or android logo) (In other words, once you go black, you never go back. Not being racist, just saying once it blacks out it doesn't work no more). So i retry. And then I give up and stick on v20E.
So please suggestions?

Are you sure it wipes made correctly?
Danm, yes I'm sure.
Why you dont format cache and data & data/media ?
Did you try boot without gapps... Sometimes bad gapps cause a lot of problems
Sent from my LG-E610 using Tapatalk
When you factory reset it clears cache automatically. I'll try without Gapps.
wipe data,wipe cache wipe dalvic cache

How do you factory reset? Factory Reset is NOT only wipe data

Dear XDA
Need some urgent help. I tried to do an factory reset of my phone and since then it doesnt want to turn on.
Oneplus 5 stock, locked bootloader
The phone turns on, shows the oneplus sign and then a black screen with a green LED light.
Things I have tried
1) Sideloading the latest software from OPO website (1.7gb) file
2) Multiple versions of the MSM Download tool
3) wiping cache and system date
I am stuck as to what to do now? Any ideas? Does the green LED have any significance.

Are you able to boot to recovery? If so, do that and do a format data and then reboot.
Yes I am able to boot to recovery. While in there I have tried, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe system data
I have then tried to boot. And then tried to reinstall the data via msmdownload and via adb but still not boot. Just a black screen with a green light.

Not WIPE, but FORMAT DATA, where you have to type YES to format. You need to Format to come out of this. You will lose your internal data..

Would using the MSM tool not overide this and formate everything anyway.?
So in my recovery after I select english I have these options:
Install from Internal storage
Install from ADB
Wipe Data and Cache->Reset System Settings, Wipe Cache, Erase everything
Advanced ->Reboot to fastboot, Reboot to recovery
There is no option to format?

i m not expert but i would try the third option.
if nothing happens,reboot to fastboot,unlock bootloader,flash TWRP.
reboot in TWRP,format data(typing yes)connect OTG,flash latest stock firmware.
IF you want your bootloader stay locked,try the OnePlus unbrick tool
So now I can boot into h20 os and I flashed recovery but kept getting error 7
I then tried to flash the zip via stock recovery but this did not work either. Still same problem. Black screen with green led
When i use the MSM tool to install h2o it is very hit or miss re when it works
Could this now be a hardware issue?

If EDL flash does not work it can be an hardware issue
I am starting to think it's a hardware issue. Even once I have booted I to H20 it only works on that occasion. Cannot get it boot if I restart the phone.
I managed to download twrp and install it and install a pre-treble version of o2 OS but again same issue it is hit or miss. And on restart it stops working
