Sorry, was abit stressed when I posted it as I had things to do. It was unrooted, nothing done to it at all. Ended up getting Sony's companion and having it reset to fix it.

[Q] Phone unresponsive randomly

Hi guys, something strange happened, got my nexus 3 weeks ago and i right away unlocked bootloader, flashed custom recovery and rooted it, installed a few apps and everything was fine, day before yesterday while sending an email my phone got stuck and rebooted, took awhile and when it did i noticed the cell network being empty, i would press anything on the screen and it would do the same. So i downloaded the stock images and flashed everything according to section D of the topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2010312 and boot took awhile finally it started and i got the welcome screen, clicked on English USA and again the cell network is empty and phone frooze in the first screen only, it rebooted and it boots up with a black screen and i get the message "process system isn't responding, OK or wait" and press ok or wait whichever and phone reboot or even if i try to press any of the options, its stuck. But bootloader works since i can do fastboot devices or fastboot reboot-bootloader, i can also boot into recovery which is CMW. This is getting frustrating and im confused, can anyone help me out here? Thanks
RMA time. Relock the bootloader and ship her off. If reloading the stock images doesn't fix it, it's likely hardware.

Isn't there anything else i can try before shipping it back or give up?
EDIT:
I pushed CM zip file via adb and it got pushed successfully and i even flashed it via CMW recovery and it even said complete and when i reboot the device its stuck on the Google screen and nothing else happens..

Gong back to all stock software with fresh flashes is the most extreme attempt at a fix, software wise. What else would you do?
Hmmm, true...this sucks, no other option...thanks

[Q] Nexus 10 stuck in bootloop - cant access recovery [SOLVED]

Hi,
I received a new Nexus 10 yesterday and everything was running great on 4.4 kitkat until the wi-fi suddenly started running very slowly and only on this device. I looked up online and found a suggested fix would be to wipe the cache partition in recovery, so I did that, except it froze halfway through. I left it for a while but nothing. The bar wasn't going up and the device was completely unresponsive.
I forced a reboot but now the device is stuck in a bootloop. I can get to the bootloader and my PC recognises it there, but if I try and get into recovery again, the little graphic of the android on it's back comes up with a red warning triangle on its chest (can't remember if that's normal or not) and then nothing else happens. I can't open the menus or see it on my PC. When I try to boot normally, I get stuck at the bootscreen but my PC can see it.
Thanks
EDIT: I fixed the problem by simply reinstalling android via ADB and sideload.

I9505 bootlooping & not booting

Galaxy S4 I9505
Phone was second hand to me at the start of this year, though had been well looked after, always in a case etc
I flashed it with the newest stock ROM in January this year
I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505BTUHOJ1_I9505XXUHOJ2
& rooted with CF AutoRoot
It has worked fine until about 2 weeks ago, when it randomly shut down. After restarting, it kept bootlooping.
Left it off & charging overnight, & the next morning it booted ok. Managed to use spotify for a few hours.
Then it started bootlooping again, sometimes getting all the way but then crashing after a few minutes.
Managed to boot into recovery & do a 'wipe cache', that didnt fix it.
'Wipe data' didnt fix it
Have flashed the PIT file & ROM (via odin), no errors in odin, done it twice now
wiped cache & data
still wont boot past the white splash screen, only sometimes boots into recovery
(also, only the menu button lights up, not the back button.)
I've checked the power button (clicks & dosnt stick)
Dont think the batteries the issue (charges fine, dosnt get warm, isnt bulging)
What else could stop it booting?
Have you tried booting into safe mode?
Safe mode, from what I read, can be accessed by holding the menu button while the phone boots.
But you should also do some reading about it, in case I'm wrong.
The other idea would be to try a custom ROM.

Can't boot into safe mode
(& having read up on it, it would only not run apps that arn't already in the ROM)
Any suggestions for a custom ROM
& why would it work when the original official one won't?
Well, it's booted far enough to get into android & add a google account, then it bootloops again.
Then after leaving it off for a while, it will boot & let me look at settings etc, then bootloop
however
the menu soft key stays lit all the time after a boot
the top half of the phone, around the camera, gets very warm
Does that indicate it's a hardware issue?
Could it be the battery?
If it's the top half warming up without you doing anything, it's the motherboard.
Boot into recovery and and let it stand by, see if it reboots.

The battery can't prevent the ROM from booting. It would have to turn off during the boot, which it doesn't. So, by my logic, it isn't the battery.
Try official CM.

I am not able to go into recovery after firmware flash. The recovery bot appears and when the blue loading bar goes to half, the phone reboots and then again boot loop. I just noticed this always happened when i flashed a rom. I was never able to enter recovery on first boot.

Why do you want to do factory wipe after one boot?

blank screen after the third restart with any GSI ROM

Hi
RP2, GSI roms (I tried three: LOS 17, NitrogenOS, RevenageOS), arter97-kernel-r12, Magisk-v20.3
I am installing a GSI ROM, the system is working. after the third or more reboot, the phone is booted to a black black screen.
Wipe all data, phone booted.
doing something simple (install software from google play,restore data from old device via google restore)
restart
phone booting to blank black screen with sound. computer (USB) recognized the phone.
Tried with Magisk, withour Magisk, restored vendor.img from origin (I was deleted the two apks for BT).
clear data
phone booted
restore
blank again
where to start debug it ?

Yea I've had the same results as well.
Try Havoc and PE from these links. They are phhusson based and work with some bugs but at least you can boot up after the third time

If you want/need to restart if you do it via the power button then hitting restart, it will boot to a black screen. But if you hold the power and volume down till it reboots, it'll boot perfectly. Happens every time for me

Not if you let go when you see the screen turn off, then it's just a dirty restart I guess?
In my case, it only happens when you use the Encrypt password to start the device.
So I suggest skipping the encrypt part on startup setting and the problem should gone.
*Sorry for my bad English.
In my case, Don't use the "Secure start-up" thing when you set up your phone in Android 10.
Nor It will mess and cause a black screen on your device.
