So I was on a early January build of Mahdi Roms. I decided today to update it. I was told to wipe everything flash the radio zip, cloudy rom. let it boot up then flash the new mahdi rom.
However, im on twrp 2.6.3. and when i flashed the radio and flashed the stock rom it booted up into twrp instead. I tried wiping and reflashing but it failed. I tried to reboot but it said my device isnt rooted and need to install SU so i swiped to continue however my device froze on the LG logo for about 10+ minute. So here I am still with no working phone for about 2 hours
any idea as to what to do?

hey guys, It seems that i cant get my phone out of boot loop. This ocurred last night while i was switching roms. I went from PA jan11 build downgrading to the beta 8 build. I was able to downgrade successfully, but when i tried to upgrade to the latest experimental feb1 build I then got bootloops. Now when i tried to flash back to the older build it still wouldnt work.. My phone was at very low battery at the time(under 10%) through the whole process. I charged my phone over night and when i tried flashing PA again it still doesnt work. I am still able to enter recovery and fastboot. I tried to go complete stock through fastboot(and erased all data through fastboot) and now im able to see the Nexus X logo. This is where im stuck. I also upgraded twrp to latest 2.4.1.0 and it told me my data was encrypted. I fixed this by wiping the entire system through twrp. Then I went back into fastboot reflashed the rom again and im still stuck here with a Nexus logo. Any help?
EDIT: NVM I fixed it, installing cfx through twrp seemed to work. please close this
i was running triforce rom 5.1 and was going to try sacs 4.4.2. it said that i had to use the new twrp or cwm recovery for 4.4.2. so i cleared all my data as i always do before flashing a new rom. then i flashed the new twrp and rebooted. now it will not reboot into recovery it starts then just reboots again. i tried putting cwm and philz back on with odin but it does the same thing. anyone know what i need to do?
edit: i tried a different version of odin and cwm loaded
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 ?
I officially upgraded to 3.0.2, unlocked and rooted my phone.
It was fine for the first few times I flashed multiple ROMs. But ever since I flashed Exodus, I keep having issues switching to different ROM.
A week ago, I flashed "Switch to OOS3_H2OSMMv7" zip and was able to flash Resurrection Remix, but today when I tried switching to CM13 or PA it gets stuck at flashing the ROM zip. I tried flashing the firmware zip again and flash the ROM, but to no avail. It won't flash any ROMs now, just stuck at recovery while flashing the zip.
I have a working fastboot and recovery mode though, so I'm trying to avoid flashing the entire factory image but that seems to be only option left. Does anyone have any clue as to why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Edit: Resurrection Remix gets installed fine, CM13 and PA still giving me issues.
Edit: I downloaded the latest version of CM13 and it works. Earlier I was using June 30 build which seems to have issues with the new firmware. I'll try out the new PA build to see if it fixes that too.
What error does your recovery gives?
Do you have Data Backup?
Can you access ADB while in Recovery?

It does not show any error as it just looping while installing the zip. I have to force shut down the phone to exit it.
Yes, I have backed up all my data
Yes, I am able to access my phone in both ADB and in fastboot modes.
After flashing Custom ROM, Wipe data, cache, d-cache and then reboot.
If still doesnt work try flashing another custom ROM. You can use adb-sideload to flash another zip in recovery mod.
Phone is Lenovo A6000, not plus. I installed multiple TWRPs, 3.1.0 and 2.9 something.
I even installed CWM, still couldn't boot to the recovery.
Now, I know how to flash with fastboot, and I know how to boot. Booting doesn't work at all, it says "booting" and never finishes.
Flashing says "okay" and I reboot, do a reboot to recovery, and I get put into bootloader/fastboot.
Any help? I just bought the phone today, no one messed with it.
Edit: Nevermind. CWM installed. How do I install TWRP, so it works? Also, forgot to mention that the phone has the latest stock rom, 4.4.4.
Edit#2: While trying to install "TWRP-3.1.0-Lenovo-A6000.img",
I got an error.
"Can't open /tmp/update.zip (bad)"
"Installation aborted."
Edit#3: Same error with multiple TWRP images.
First of all the twrp 3.1.0 is meant for nougat roms. Since you are flashing that recovery on KitKat rom which it won't support. So first try updating phone to stock lollipop. Then flash twrp 2.8. then take a complete backup(most important) and save it on SD card. After that flash any rom you want. If you are flashing marshmallow or nougat rom then after flashing rom flash 3.1.0 twrp.
I have long ago (10 minutes after last edit) fixed the problem already by flashing stock firmware through some weird software, and then started updating to latest lollipop firmware, and then installed TWRP 3.1 and then installed RR android version 7.1.2. But, thank you for trying to help. I hereby ask a moderator to close the thread because the problem was resolved. Thank you.
