hi everyone. i've been following the forum here for awhile and finally decided to root my brand new NC. i autorooted from 1.1. i saw some things weren't working so i quickly decided to unroot back to factory settings. i unrooted by unregistering the device and turning off the power 8 times. my NC boots up fine, but it gets stuck on the "Registering your Device" page and just remains there with the circle spinning. i think i left it there for more than 30 minutes and nothing happens. has anyone experienced this before? if so, how did you fix it? any help would be appreciated.
sorry if this topic has already been asked - i tried searching but didn't find anything on this specific issue. if there's already a thread, please feel free to share the link with me. thank you!
EDIT: really need some help here... i tried to fix it myself (i know i shouldn't have) and might have made it even worse. i tried to re-autoroot my NC but just completely failed. it was not loading anything anymore, so i tried to unroot again by powering off 8 times. when i restarted, everything looked normal, except the bootloader screen was not stock. it brought me back through the normal tutorial and same thing with it getting stuck on "registering your device". could someone please provide a thorough walkthrough on how to reset to factory settings? i'm seeing all these threads throwing around all these acronyms that i don't understand. seems like i need to try running some clockwork rom but not even sure how to do that. please help!!
Bump, i have just encountered this problem and i need help as well.
Update:
actually just figured it out and heres what fixed my problem, i wasn't doing the factory reset part only the 8 reboot interruptions.

Thanks for your post, even though no one ever helped. I was having the same problem and doing a clear data/factory reset from Clockwork Recover booted from an SD card did the trick for me.

Hey guys its been a while since I've even tried to fix my phone cause everyone was saying its dead. But I've been reading stories of people coming back from the G1 logo. So i could really use your help.
Heres the problem, A while back I dropped my old G1 and had to get a new one. Upon looking for the video I used last time to root my phone, I couldn't find it. I searched high and low but to no avail. I figured any video would work as long as it rooted me. So I started up the video. however once i was "done" with it i noticed nothing had changed. So i figured the video was garbage and found another one and started it up. I know, STUPID. Well when i booted my phone after wiping and flashing. It stayed on the G1 logo. I knew the worst had happened. So now i don't know what to do. There have been one or two occasions that I've gotten it to boot loader. So i know i can get there. but what do i do when I get it?
Also, no, I never got to flashing raido's or anything like that. I thought I wasn't rooted so i didn't move on.
I know it was long but I'm getting all the info out there. Please help, I think its possible, and if it is I want my phone back!!!
What were you installing by the way?
EDIT: Made a mistake, thought you were able to boot into recovery.
He does not get to recovery, but into bootloader mode (cam + power on). This is good, as there is a good chance to recover from that.
Try the first section of this guide:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
You have to flash the correct dreamimg.nbh via bootloader. You might need a Goldcard to do so, in certain countries, but lets just hope that is not the case (would be more work...)

Hi everyone.. after hours and hours of reading and studying on this website I really got myself into a mess and I just can't seem to climb out of it.. I desperately need some grade A help..
To be descriptive, I was trying to flash Serendipity 7, I was following the steps, used odin 3 1.7, I put all the files where they needed be, and followed it down to a tee, I pressed start, and then my phone goes into a boot loop... So I google around to look for solutions, and I thought I found one, well after I flash this "P-SBL.tar.md5" some tar file that is meant to fix the 3 button recovery mode issue. (Basically my cappy can't select anything in recovery mode due to it not having a "ok" button..) So I try it.. and not my recovery mode is littered with multi colored lines.. and I can't seem to get them to go away.
If anyone can help me I would forever be in your debt.. I would be happy just to go back to stock 2.2 if possible.. or perhaps advice on getting serendipity 7 to work.
I could make it happen if only I could get my recovery mode to work. D:
Please anyone help, I'm in dire need..
Thanks!
Search for "stock kb2 adam outler"
Then after you get back to stock, stay that way until you have done about 12 more hrs of research and reading. You were lucky that you didn't hard brick your phone, and you don't realize it. Don't just flash something because you"think"it will fix it. Know what you are flashing and what it will do to your phone. And you can call me an a#&h&$#if you want, but i believe most of the regular users here would agree me.

Totally agree !!
suoh18, If....wow....whoa....dude don't be so trigger happy to flash. You were this " | " <---(that is a thin thin line by the way) to having a brick.
They need to get rid of that 3 button fix, its bricked more phones than I know, it should include both bootloaders and not just the one, I would contact Adam Outler like mrhaley said, to see if he can help, 3 button fix brick may require a jtag.
I know I was.. I was just reading what everyone was saying how easy it was.. it was my first flash and I guess it just back fired on me.. x_x
I really appreciate your help a ton, you have no clue how thankful I am.
I'm downloading what I need right now and I'm praying it works, thank you again so much.
^
Keep us posted on the end result.
I just used the program.. and it very well got my phone back on the right track. The boot looping stopped, it's back on the recovery mode that I can actually use, but after it loads it just goes to a black screen and keeps vibrating, I read that if it doesn't work the first time to check the flash bootloaders button. so I'm going to reboot one more time, then try that.
Thanks a ton guys, you really are great.
EDIT:
Which I think I need to do, because I still have a weird Galaxy S starting screen that appeared after I tried to flash serendipity.
EDIT 2:
Okay, After re-flashing the bootloaders it removed that screen that shouldn't have loaded, but I still get a black screen after the boot and nothing shows up..
I can enter and exit my recovery and download modes fine..
EDIT3:
Okay.. I went back into recovery mode and literally just wiped everything I could.. cache, user data, internal card, and after I rebooted again, viola it worked.
I'm so happy and I am seriously very appreciative. You guys are great and there has always been a reason why I respect this community so much.
Thanks again everyone that helped me, I don't know how much I can say it, but really, thank you so so so much, you are amazing.
Hello All,
I'm fairly certain there isn't another thread asking this question, if I overlooked it I apologize in advance. Now to the point, I have a dell streak 7 and I have been having some stability issues with it for about the last week. What was happening is I was running Android 2.2.2 and my system would crash randomly eventually it wouldn't start back up. I tried doing a factory restore several times this didn't work so I re-flashed to restore the original file system and I installed the T-mobile system by mistake. I played around with this for a little bit and every thing seemed fine. So I decided to upgrade to 3.2 honeycomb, I flashed the DS7 did all of the set up steps and started reading about rooting the device (I didn't start any of the steps). While it was sitting next to me in sleep mode I noticed it just randomly reset itself and started booting up. I looked around in it and nothing seemed to be changed, so I powered it off and powered it back on to see if it would freeze up and crash again. it didn't so I put it back in sleep mode and kept reading. then the side lights came on and it froze up. I was able to get it to boot by going into recovery mode and then selecting boot normally. So my question is, is this some sort of hardware issue or something that I am doing wrong? I don't think it's hardware but I could be mistaken. Also, has anyone else had an issue like this and if so is there a known fix? I am going to try re-flashing to the original file system again and replace the restore .img and see if this helps. Also, I'm not sure if my DS7 is the mobile version or wifi only version. I entered the service tag at DELL's website and it said I had the mobile version, however it didn't have the t-mobile start up animation before I flashed it the first time and in the sim card slot there is a black piece of plastic or card (IDK which) lodged in there and it wont come out. Any help or advice on this would be greatly appreciated .
Thanks in advance-Woulfenstien
OK I'm pretty sure i got it solved. what I did was I re-flashed everything. I re-flashed the boot.img, the system.img, and the recovery.img using fastboot and then i re-flashed whole system with nvflash. It's been a couple of hrs. and this has seemed to work so far. I upgraded back to 3.2 honeycomb and rooted the device with no problems so far. If any other issues arise I will post them here along with what i did to fix it. I would also like to thank everyone on this forum who has posted the tutorials, it was a huge help I wouldn't have been able to fix my DS7 with out all of your help.
Thanks again-Woulfenstien
What my mother did with her Milestone I don't know but everytime I try to boot it, it loops on the Motorola logo. I've tried several things already to fix it but I really need help here.
I've installed open recovery, tried to flash several sbf-files but afterwarrds it keeps rebooting. Last I tried to put on CM6 through apply update in OR but still no succes. So please give me some advice on how to fix this problem.
Kind regards.
Nobody? I just flashed Central Europe sbf-file SHOLS_U2_05.26.3_SIGNED_UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B806E.0R_PDS003_UCAMS1FRYOQWRTEU_P013_A006_HWp2a_WIG145231_1FF again (since I live in Belgium I believe this is the one) afterwards go into stock recovery and do a factory reset but still cannot boot. I get the white motorola logo and afterwards it reboots.
Anybody some ideas please? Might there be a hardware problem? My mother says she was taking a picture when the Milestone (type MVQ7-334411A11) rebooted and kept on rebooting. Please give me some advice.
Same here
Hi!
I seem to have the same exact problem with my friends phone.
Things i've done:
-Installed several different sbf's. All they do is boot-loop.finally installed GOT_RTEU_2_2_1FULL and that does the same but i thought i'd do other tweaking with that firmware.
-Installed OR 2.01 which starts up nicely. Tried flushing caches and stuff...
-Got a tip that the pds-partition might be malfunctioning, but i can see the files there just fine from shell and backed them up to the memorycard. Although i dont really have idea that if there some files missing from there.
files that are there follows:
pds/
pds/public/
pds/public/batt_offset_data
pds/public/batt_tuning_data
pds/public/tcxo.bin
pds/public/batt_phasing_data

-i've also tried to get something started that would start bootlogging so i could see what's happening. No luck with that.
typing in shell:
echo 1 > /data/property/persist.service.aplogd.enable
doesn't work. but i think i need CM7 firmware for that?
Well...I'm a bit out of ideas now. You guys have any?

Hi XDA community,
I'm scared out of my mind. Tried rooting for the first time ever, but don't actually know what I'm doing. Using various guides I found in these forums, I:
1. Used HTCdev to unlock the bootloader
2. Used ADB to install TWRP 3.0.2-0
3. Used TWRP to install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76.zip
Once that finished, my phone tried booting up (the white HTC logo) but now it has the red development build text at the bottom.... and then it gets into an infinite boot loop.
I don't know how to fix my phone. Please someone here with guidance, please help.
I've got the same identical issue.
I was able to get out of the boot loop by holding volume up and power, and I got back to download mode. From there, since the SU update I tried to install boot looped me (I was following this tutorial), I jumped ahead and just installed cm13 as I was planning to.
This install went fine, but then I ran into the issue of the rom not recognizing my sim card. I've been researching this problem and I guess I need to update my baseband? I tried for hours but I do not know how to accomplish this, and couldn't figure it out for the life of me. This thread on the cyanongenmod forum seemed to be the closest thing to help I could find, but still it didn't help very much.
So at this point now I'm trying to back out and unroot my phone and get everything back to factory settings; it doesn't feel worth it anymore to me since I've just had trouble every step of the way. I've been trying to follow this post to get back to at least a usable factory rom. But I can't even get this one to install because I cannot access my phone through adb while it's in download mode. Furthermore the instructions are just confusing me because I'm not so versed in the nomenclature of these procedures.
Is there anyone that can help me get back to complete stock t-mobile sense? Or if not, help me get my cm13 rom to recognize my sim card so I can at least have my phone working in some capacity? I'd be tremendously grateful of either. I'm really in over my head here and quite scared I won't be able to figure this out.
