I tried the Apps2SD 2 App on the market today. It hung then finally said error, check this guide online, which I didn't write down the link for. Restarted and now I'm in a boot loop. I tried to say forget it and installed the brand new JACHero2.2F ROM. Still boot loop
I have tried to "Wipe" which I don't really understand. What does it mean exactly? It says it was completed but my G1 is still boot looping.
I was on JF 1.41
Please please please give me some insight. I really don't understand why I can't get it back to a place where it'll boot.

I actually had a similar issue with apps2sd- It crashed on me then I got stuck in a boot loop
I don't recall the exact details as its been a while, but I believe I formatted my card back to scratch and then re-applied an update. Different images wouldnt work for me until I re-did the card for whatever reason. Never found out exactly what the cause was but I attempted to get as close to a 'new' flash as I could and it worked.
Don't suppose anyone else had a similar issue and knows what happened?

just restart call-HOME-end then hold end(power) and home then ALT-L ALT-W ALT-s and your done
So, I'm drunk with my friends, and I turn on my G1 for the millionth time in the last two days... and it turns on!!
Somehow it is working. I can only assume it is because I reformated my memory card and re-updated a million times.
The strange thing is that it is redownloading some apps. Dunno what's going on yet. I am going to apply the JFHero ROM soon.
I tried to install expresso on DC 2.07 and the zip file flashed, then when I rebooted it just keeps looping without getting to the OS. I suppose I screwed something up, so I was going to nandroid back, but now the phone won't let me get back into the recovery console. Anybody have any tips on how to get the recovery console back up?

You pulled the battery and put it back in, then held just the home button and the power key?
if the above doesnt do it
Pull the battery put it back in power on hold down home and back. clear the data.
I am currently running the newest version of DC, hours after the update I look down the phone is continuously restarting never making it past the sprint screen.
I go into recovery it says it cant mount to the SD card. so as of right now my phone is dead in the water.
I purchased a new SD card and im loading DC onto it to do a flash. Ill let you know If I get the same thing, mine didnt do it right away but it was fine before the update this morning... oh and Damage whats up with no Wireless Tether??
Mine is doing the infinite loop also. I had everything working and did a nandroid backup. After I rebooted, it started to loop, the nandroid loops also, I wiped the ext on sd, and still get the loop.

So you guys can get into Nandoird, you wipe data, dalvik and ext partition, reinstalled ROM and you still get a boot loop?
Yes exactly..
I ruled my phone bricked earlier for no reason at all. phone was fine, i did the update to 2.7.2 and hour or two later it keeps looping..
I tried New SD card,erase data, davlik, re partitioned, downloaded a fresh version off the net just incase my copy was corrupt and still looped
I took it to the sprint store before they closed and got a new phone.
I Would seriously look into this obviously I wasnt the only one

Yes TrevE says it may have something to do with /data/private-app/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6174954&postcount=1951
All I know, it boots like normal, I install exchange, hotmail. some market apps. titanium apps, paid and free, then when I went to reboot I backed up in nandroid, then when it actually booted, it was stuck in the HTC quietly brilliant and the start up of the sprint logo and keep looping. TreVe suggested adb logcat but I can not get that far to log the error. He said he logged it as the private-app
Oh I also tried to delete sd ext, davik, remove sdcard, run from the nandroid back up and everyway made the loop. I think TrevE is onto something though. I have one app that I install that is a private app that is from Titanium that may cause this.
Oh and btw, if I wipe the rom and reboot it boots up normally so i think it has something to do with something that is installed. Is anyone else using titanium backup to restore a paid app? Installing a paid app from the sdcard??

Not much left to look into since the phone is gone. I would have restored to the unrooted 1.56 ruu to test, but I guess a new phone is good too.
Try flashing a different ROM as in different frameworks. Sometimes going back to a 1.5 ROM can fix weird issues like that.
I went with fresh's Rom this time instead of dc. Everything has been good so far.
I had a problem with a loop with both DC and Fresh. It all began after I set up my Exchange email. I am using Touchdown and I haven't had any issues.
Keep on mind I never added or used any private apps. This happened after the update through the loader. I changed nothing and have been using the same apps for months.
I kept having these issues after 2.07.2 even after a full wipe and reset still no dice. So I just went to Fresh.
So i flashed something that my phone doesnt agree with and now it gets stuck in boot. it gets to samsung screen then goes black and back to samsung over and over..
through clockwork i've wiped everything, tried to recover, tried to flash fresh roms, new kernels everything but i'm still stuck.. is this a situation to try odin? I don't have access to a pc so i just wanted to know if that is the next step cause its kinda of a pain in the ass to get a hold of one

what exactly did you flash to your phone that it didnt agree with
i flashed geek's uv superfast test and then followed his links to enable the BLN.. i think i might have flashed a bln mod for another device by accident but i'm having trouble finding the links i clicked so i'm not positive.. all i know is after i flashed it my boot animation changed to i 9000 and then it got stuck and then it got stuck in boot lock
to be frank, i can't find what the **** i did so i'm starting to think i was in a diff device forum or something... i musta flashed something for another device

yeah you are pretty much screwed
screwed as in i should go to verizon w/ a sob story or screwed as in try odin
Couldn't you use Odin to restore? Or have you already tried that?
yeah man just revert to stock via Odin . Youre fine , happens to everyone at some point . Get back on that Android horse and ride it haha .
Yes, use odin.
If flashing other kernels doesn't fix this, (ie you still get stuck after the Verizon logo with lit buttons) let me know. I've got a trick up my sleeve for this, but I've only seen it happen twice, it's pretty rare.
i'm not proud of myself but i went to verizon and they gave me a brand new device...

awwwww wheres the fun in that XD
OK I did the same thing last week. I fixed it by running voodoo uninstaller. Don't know why it worked or how but I was desperate after being without a phone for 2 days. Then that afternoon my replacement showed up via fedex
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just got a Color Nook, and did a manual upgrade to 1.3.
Followed the SD install of cyanogenmod and that went pretty well too.
Problem started when I tried to put gapps on the uSD device, and
I have spent hours reading the forums and searching, and reflashing
the uSD and nothing I do seems to make this nook boot off the uSD
device.
Thoughts. I could swear I had seen something prior to the SD install
where I could pick, but all the ways I've seen are not getting me to
recover from stock.

problem solved. I managed to corrupt the boot img so that was causing the problem. Grr.

That and stopped using XP for updating the SD. Consistently, Win7 is able to see the proper SD partitions. Only once in a while, when I pop the SD back into my XP laptop with SD reader does it see "boot" partition. It usually picks up one of the other ones, which makes updating rather difficult.
I was running the FlexReaper Relix v7 and suddenly yesterday my a500 just froze. Nothing worked, homescreen, back arrow, nothing. So I restarted it, and it was stuck in bootloader, twice. So then I held down the volume and power to get to recovery. It took me several times trying that to finally get to recovery but while in recovery I couldn't do anything. I can't wipe any data, or install anything. In fact it won't even ready ANY of my SD Cards. I have the TWRP recovery 2.1.3.
Edit: Now I can't even get to the recovery screen. Would love some help

Yes, I also have a lake in my back yard. I'm ready to give up on it and buy a new tablet, but don't want to spend unnecessary money.
