I rooted my phone and installed the cyan fox rom in December and it was working flawlessly, but yesterday it would randomly shut down and then get stuck in a boot loop or wouldn't boot up. So i installed a stock rom and there are no problems with that. Today I installed cyanogen mod on now the problem is coming up again. I have tried wiping dalvik cache, factory resting and that doesn't seem to do much.

Install Stock Rom again or ask in Cyanogenmod community
Recovery
What recovery are you using? Is it the latest version?

I've encountered a strange problem with my nexus 7. As soon as I install a custom rom (I've tried the latest nightly of Carbon and Slimbean) with a full wipe my device does not boot up. It stucks on the carbon, respective slimbean, bootscreen. Another strange thing is that the latest CM nightly seems to work without any problems.
I even tried to flash a factory image and then reflashed the recovery (TWRP 2.6.3) to try the mentioned custom roms again. Still no luck - CM did work again.
So, do you guys have a solution to this problem? I've used both roms in the past as my daily driver, so I am out of ideas for now...
No suggestion, but I just flashed SlimBean on mine from a full wipe, and I'm having the same issue.
I tried SlimBean again, and it worked. Here's what I did:
1. Updated my bootloader. Mine was still 4.13, and it looks like the most recent version is 4.23. I flashed the img from this post using NRT.
2. Went back to unrooted stock with NRT. (I had to update my bootloader to do this.)
3. Let it boot back into unrooted stock, wept with joy, made a nandroid from NRT.
4. Flashed the SlimBean 1.9 weekly and minimal gapps from NRT's advanced area.
5. Watched in amazement as it boots obediently. Let sit about 10 min, and rebooted.
I'm essentially lazy, so yes I used NRT instead of manually pushing everything with ADB. ADB was plan B. It was briefly plan A, but I got tired of trying to convince the Android SDK that I did in fact have the Java JDK installed.
Mhhhh....

Well I have the same problem with booting Ubuntu touch.... Either it's stuck on white Google Logo or stuck on Cyanogenmod Logo... Have flashed it with TWRP and MultiROM...
Was on cloudy's latest gpro2 rom with dorimatrix 4.8.1, updated to 4.9 and wiped cache and dalvic cache and upon first boot everything I would click force closed after a minute or so so I attempted rebooting. It would then go into a bootloop. I adb rebooted into recovery, wiped the caches, and flashed 4.8.1. It now did the same thing as it did before, followed by a bootloop when I rebooted it. Decided to try flashing to a different rom, so I did a complete backup and sent over the latest CM11 nightly. Wiped all and flashed, and now I'm bootlooping at the CM screen with no recovery access.
I remembered when I was already bootlooping that I needed to flash the 4.2.2 partitions to use an AOSP roms. A little too late huh. Now I'm stuck at the CM bootanimation and no ADB. Are my only options to use mobile odin and start over from or can you guys come up with something else?

Fixed it... realized I still had recovery active, booted into it with the button combo, wiped, installed cloudy pro, all is good.
Short Story: My phone works fine when its stock 4.4.4 , no root. If i root it and flash a custom recovery using WUG it gets stuck on starting ups.
Long Story: I was running the latest version of PA, rebooted my phone because of a franco kernel update, and it got stuck on the bootscreen. Tried everything, couldnt get it to boot, so I finally flashed stock using WUG, it worked. I then rooted and flashed custom recovery, and it got stuck on starting apps. Flashed stock again and it worked, repeated the root, and it got stuck on starting apps.
Anybody know whats going on?

You should do a CLEAN install, wipe dalvik / cache / System and Data, the last two ones are very important to wipe, otherwise you got stuck on boot.
It is best to flash your rom using recovery and forget the toolkit, just upload your rom on your N4, get to recovery => install => choose the rom, that's it.

I did all that before, and it still didn't work.
I think your problems are related to flashing the recovery, did you try to revert back the the old one ?
EDIT: the problem is solved, see my last post
Hey guys,
I'm not new to installing roms, as I did with my SGS 2 before. But I haven't done it for a long time and it's the first time I do it on my SGS 5... with no success at all.
The problem is that, out of all the roms I've tried, none of them boot up entirely without crashes. I've followed the instructions to the letter and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Here's what I had before starting to fiddle:
SGS 5 G900F, no specific carrier, bought in Europe
stock android/touchwiz 5.0, never rooted or anything
Here are the roms I have tried:
cynaogen 5.1.1 12.1 20150508 for klte + these gapps http://teambliss.x10host.com/BlissStalk/Gapps/ --> stays blocked on the samsung logo forever
BlissPop 5.1.1 v3.3 20150515 for klte + pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150418-signed or pa_gapps-modular-full-5.1-20150418-signed --> google newstand and another google app are crashing in a loop during the setup, I can't tap any button
PAC 5.1.1 20150503 for klte + pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150418-signed or pa_gapps-modular-full-5.1-20150418-signed --> the install wizard application itself is crashing in a loop
THe kernels I've tried:
KT-SGS5-LP5.1-AOSP-G900-05.02.2015
boeffla-kernel-2.0-beta8-CM12.1-g900f.recovery
My recovery:
twrp-2.8.6.0-klte (flashed with Odin, it works fine, and I could boot the stock rom without problems with it)
Any idea about the cause of the problem?
Thanks
I guess if you are not new to stuff like this, you have 100% wiped everything before flashing in TWRP recovery, and factory reset / wiped caches after flashing the ROM and Gapps?

Yes, before and between installing different roms, I wiped everything: system, cache, dalvik, internal storage
I've also flashed twrp previous version 2.8.5.0, and philz touch recovery. They all work fine, but still can't boot any rom
Strangely, I now works using this version of CM 12.1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ent/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-android-5-1-t3066252
I have no idea why I had all these crashes and boot problems with the other 3 roms.
Cheers
Odd.
I recently installed CyanogenMod 10.2 on my Sprint Nexus S 4G, but after realizing it was Android 4.2, not 4.4, I installed OmniROM 4.4.2 on my phone. However, it's now stuck in this annoying bootloop. I removed the battery and went into recovery (CWM recovery). I tried reinstalling the ROM, doing a factory reset, wiping my cache, wiping my dalvik cache, but it's still in the bootloop when I rebooted. Is it because I installed CM 10.2 before? How can I get it to reboot correctly? Can I restore to the original OS?
Thanks

I actually figured out how to mount my USB storage to my computer and managed to return it back to CM 10.1 and get it out of bootloop. However, I would still love to have Android 4.4 on my phone, and I can't seem to get OmniROM working. I'm also looking into Avatar ROM 5.0.3, but the link seems to be broken. Any ideas?
Also, the link to return to stock doesn't work.
FIXED
Turns out that I just had to flash the boot image through fastboot, works great now! Thanks

well you can try AOSP too, just remember all these projects are discontinued, so any support in case you break anything support won't be there..so always backup.
for AOSP!
