Bootloop with 4.3 ota

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.

Soft Bricked

Okay so I have been having an issue with my n4 for the last few weeks. It started when I went from a 4.3.1 rom to a 4.4 rom, I got a boot loop. So I used a back up and tried again and everything went fine.
Now a week or so later I tried to update to latest of the rom I was running and I got another boot loop. So I tried to go to a back up and boot loop still. So I tried to revert to stock, and now it boots somtimes but if the phone restarts it gets stuck in a boot loop. So I tried to revert to stock again and boot loop.
Any suggestions, I can pull a logcat if it might help. Thanks as always.

If there is any other info i can provide please tell me.​

S5 SM-901F Bootloop on device with Custom ROM

I flashed the ROM Ressurection Remix onto my phone to get a newer Android version since the model is quite old. Everything worked perfectly for over two years. Then while browsing, my phone crashed and got into a bootloop and restarts after showing the Samsung Logo. After manually removing the battery and putting it back repeatedly it boots up somehow. I couldn't reproduce what was happening back then.
After that it crashes in irregular intervals for no apparent reason and every time I could get it to boot properly by turning off and on for a long period of time.
Now I got the same problem and I wanted to get rid of the bootloop, so I decided to flash it with a new version of Ressurection Remix. I updated TWRP via Odin and had much trouble to get into recovery mode since my phone was crashing at the Samsung logo. As I got into recovery I made a factory reset and flashed the new rom. But as soon as my phone started to reboot after the flashing, it crashes again and the loop starts once again. Again, I searched for another Rom and used LineageOS but the problem persists.
Now I'm out of options, I can't even get into recovery mode by now.
Could anybody help me out?

If you flashed stock rom and still couldn't boot you likely have the BLOD. Did you try the TWRP found in the link below? If so and you still can't boot into that recovery your phone is likely dead, unfortunately.
