HELP..
I have a N7 2012 that was rooted with stock ROM. I just updated to 4.4 and then decided to sideload 4.42. In middle of running the fastboot with the new image, it just hung at sending 'system' (625382kb). It was there for at least 10 minutes. Ctrl-break didn't do anything, all the keys weren't working in recovery. My only choice was to unplug the device. After unplugging, it reboots to the Google screen and hangs. If I hit the power button, it just returns to the same black screen with Google. It hasn't budged for about 15 minutes now.
I was using these instructions, which worked fine for 4.4.

Is there any way to fix this?
UGHHHHHHH.

UPDATE:
I just booted into recovery and just ran the 4.4 update again. It is working again. PHEW!!!
Um.. going to just hold off on 4.42 update. Wow..

Im running the stock ROM, rooted, wanted to back it up before I install Paranoid Android, restarted to bootloader, chose Recovery Mode (mine is CWM, flashed with mskip's toolkit), and suddenly it froze on the unlocked bootloader's screen ("Google" and the opened lock underneath). Hardware buttons don't work, the computer doesn't see the tablet. Is there a way to restart it and fix the problem? Thanks for your help.
Edit: Solved it, long pressing the power button for about 10 secs restarted it...
If I let my Nexus 10 update to 4.2.2 when it has downloaded an goes to reboot, it displays an Android on it's back with a red error triangle, then after a few minutes reboots back to 4.2.1. This happens every time. I have never rooted the device, what are my options?
Hello
I was on 4.2.2 stock, not root when I received ota. After upgrade I stuck in the X boot loop.
If I try to install the 4.3 with fastboot I've the same result
If I restore the 4.2.2 with fastboot I haven't any problem
Please help me, I don't know what its happening with my phone
Best regards

I have same problem , started my OTA 4.3 upgrade 40mins back . My phone keeps restarting with "installing system update ". Any idea how can i stop this ?
Update seems to have finished, bootloops after inputting user password to unlock screen. It's a short boot right back to the password screen again.
Was stock, rooted, unlocked, 4.3 was OTA update

I got really lucky somehow, in getting the phone to work and managing to keep my data.
I don't remember every step in order, as I'm sure lots of them didn't do anything, but eventually I just reflashed every part of the factory images EXCEPT userdata.img as I (correctly?) figured that would erase my ****.
Wiped cache a few times from recovery as well.
Had a couple scares - at one point the LED turned RED during a couple bootup attempts.
First time after the 3rd round of flashing (including system.img) it would not boost past the X. Had to wipe cache in recovery again.

Exact same problem with N4. Have ota'd Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 no problems...

Update:
After waiting about 10-15 mins I eventually reset the phone by holding down the power button for 10 secs. It then moved to the "updating apps" screen and eventually rebooted to the Nexus "X" logo. But it hung at it the X logo for about 15 mins. I again lost patience and restarted again. It finally booted all the way up to the lock screen. I now have 4.3 and it seems to be running fine...
Just wanted to share my experience as I had the same problem. It kept saying 'installing system update...' in a loop. Then I pressed the power button. It got turned off. I turned it back on and it got stuck at X logo.
Then I booted it up in recovery mode. It again said installing system update but only once and then it started updating apps and all went fine.

Hi everyone,
I am having a bit of a problem with my s4-i9505. A few weeks ago I upgraded to Android 5.0.1 manually (using Odin) and all seemed to work like a charm. I also rooted it to. So far so good
Last week an OTA was pushed and I mistakenly clicked okay. Suddenly the battery drain was insane. I read up on it and one of the solutions was to clear the cache. I powered down my s4, pressed the Volume Up + Home + Power button and for an instant I saw in small blue letters in the upper left corner: Recovery mode and underneath it the Samsung logo. Then the screen went black and booted normally.
Since then I've tried
using apps that make the S4 boot into recovery
reflashed the stock 5.0.1 firmware
reflashed an older version (4.4.2) causing a bootloop
reflashed the stock 5.0.1 firmware (solving the bootloop)
Flashing CWM recovery using ODIN.
Still only the text Recovery mode shows up, before rebooting and booting up normally.
Does anyone have a solution to my conundrum?
I managed to fix it myself eventually. I did a factory reset from within Android settings. And now i can get back into recovery mode.

Hey all,
Just some details before the background.
I was running a stock with a unlocked bootloader for a while now. I basically only use my nexus now to watch netflixs and HBOgo. Got the tablet over four years ago.
This morning after it's nightly charge I went to unlock it and it froze up. I rebooted it, noticed the date was off (Jan 1st) and froze after I unlocked it. Reboot again, it made it to the screen where it was optimizing my apps but the screen starting flickering and having artifacts, and powered off. Now it will power itself off 5 or so seconds into the boot animation.
I've tried going into recovery via the bootloader but when I select it and hit the power button it just turns it self off. I then used the nexus toolbox to reflash a stock rom (along with a factory reset), and TWRP. I tried booting up again and same thing. I then went into TWRP and start troubleshooting, but the screen is starting to flicker and have artifacts, then powers off.
Is the hardware dead on this?
Sorry for the jumbled mess of details, i've been bouncing around trying to troubleshoot/fix this.

PIT files
My nexus 10 has the boot loop problem and I think I have been left with the only option of Re-Partition but I need the PIT file. Can anybody help or provide this file?
I have tried everything else (fastboot, adb, temporary custom recoveries, Nexus Root Toolkit) with no success.
Is the battery original? If so, it's possible the battery could be reaching its end.
