Why does my Rodriguezstyle MIUI keep rebooting after install?

I downloaded and installed Rodriguezstyle MiUi rom yesterday, following all the install procedures(the double wipes and what not). But when I go to use it, it sometimes worked and it sometimes would crash and reboot. It was very weird because instead of just rebooting to the os, it would give the Nexus X then, after going no further, reboot again giving the Nexus X and reboot again and so on. This happened with every MiUi rom I installed, but not with the Evil Desire rom I have now. I really like MiUi, do you guys have any fix?
Specs - Nexus One w/ 5.12 Korean Radio
Trying Rods 1.6.6

Have you overclocked it with setcpu? You might want to turn that off and see what happens. I assume you did a complete wipe first btw?

I did wipe and my rom crashes before I can install setcpu

MIUI 0.11.5 + English Pack
I am using MIUI 0.11.5 Deodexed + English Pack. No issues so far. Its perfect.

Why are you making multiple useless threads about this?

@ inferus
could you post the site you got it from. And I have also tired the bundle, which did not work either

I tried all three of those and on every one my phone gets stuck in the boot loop. I have tried everything, factory wiping, cache wiping, dalvik wiping, battery wiping, and clear storage. is there any way I can completely delete the operating system off my phone so I can freshly install the new rom of MiUi. This is bootloop also happens to me when I flash micromod and cyanogen. THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING! does anyone have the same problem too

this static X bootloop also happened a lot on KoR. its based on CM6.0 but maybe this solution will also fix your problem:

@pseudoheld
You are the freaken man, however, is this a permanent fix or only temporary?

I spoke too soon, when I do HBoot in the boot loader, sometimes it skips going to the recovery and goes into the boot loop. Is there any way to update the bootloader

[Q] Milestone wont boot up any Rom except SBF's

I have a Milestone. I flashed a CyanogenMod rom to it the other day. The Rom worked but after a day I decided to go back to Telus Lite V4. Unfortunately now every time I flash a new Rom, no matter what it is, it jus shows the booting animation forever. The only time I can flash it and have it work is to flash an SBF. Even then it will be glitchy. I don't know whats going on. I am wiping everything between flashes, dalvik, cache, system. Everything. I tried the Telus Lite again and it does the same thing, boot animation. Anyone know what may be the issue? And or how to fix it. I want to go back to Telus Lite V4 again. Thank you in advance.

the stock roms from here for Milestone
http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone
try it.

I am flashing the stock SBF for Telus now. Should I then go and reflash from a stock/ Hope this helps the issue. Thank you for the assist. Will let you know how it goes

K, I flashed a stock SBF and then flashed the vulnerable recovery file. I let the sbf boot up and finalize everything. I then went and wiped everything and reflashed the Telus Lite V4 nandroid. It works but I get f/c on the android market constantly. I tried to adb push the android market back into the phone and rebooted, and it still f/c's on me. Any other suggestions? Thanks again.

I Never tried it.
Can you refer back to its thread in the development section, mostly you'll find similar cases.

Got everything resolved. Had to flash a stock rom, then do the vulnerable recovery flash. From there everything worked fine. Thank you to all for you assistance.

Boot Loop

Please Help I installed a custum ROM and now I am stuck in a loop a skull comes up and droid and it continues till the battery is dies. I have tried to factory reset and nothing the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery can someone please Help

If the ROM is what's causing the problem, doing a factory reset won't change anything; it'll stil keep the same ROM in place. What you might want to do is download a more popular ROM, like a CM7 nightly, put it on your microSD card (using another phone or a microSD adapter, of course) and boot into recovery and flash that.
If that doesn't work, I dunno then. I got a bootloop the other day after using ROM Manager to flash a new kernel. Turns out it was the kernel because after a factory reset, it booted up fine. So I just chose another kernel and it's all good now.
You just might have a screwy ROM. Try reflashing it if you can. What was the custom ROM, btw?

Yeah I'd agree with the above; install another ROM and make sure to wipe cache and dalvik and if it still doesn't work wipe data as well. Note that wiping data will wipe pretty-much everything on your phones memory (SMS messages, contacts, accounts etc)

when it is cm7 than you should take an other kernel
Please, if you are experiencing random reboots (that involve the M logo) or prolonged screen freezes, you should revert to an older beta kernel that is free of the DSI errors. To do so, replace the boot.img in the update-cm-7...zip package with this one (from 0.04 version): http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/downloads/detail?name=bootimg0.04.zip

Stole that from another Thread:
_Flash with any rom you have
_Milestone will auto reboot after flash done and loop
_Don't worry about that, remove battery in 5s and re-plugin
_Turn on your milestone: hold X and POWER to access Recovery. Select Wipe and reboot

Do you have a Droid or a Milestone? If you have a Milestone, which country is the device from?
I had a boot loop issue too on my UK Milestone when I tried to install CM6.1.2, version 28.01.2011 0.07-11.01.28. (http://android.doshaska.net/cm6)
This is what I did to fix the problem...
- Flashed UK 2.1 SBF file
- Flashed Vulnerability Recovery
- Rooted the phone
- Installed and booted into OpenRecovery
- Installed 15.01.2011 0.06-11.01.15 version (phone booted fine)
- Rebooted into OpenRecovery > Wiped Dalvik Cache
- Applied 28.01.2011 0.07-11.01.28 version
One more thing, you may need to update and/or change your baseband files.
I hope this helps.

Thx for the help guys I,m back up an running. Greatly appreciated

[Q] Stuck in Boot animation after installing seeARMS ROM

Hi, I have installed seeARMS ROM and followed his instuction. I have kept the JL2 modem and speedmod kernell (I was already on speedmod). I have tried 2 methods to install. The seeARMS.UGJL2.v0.4.zip with the seearms file and the CWM.
Both install went OK and I even had a congratulations screen. The problem is when the phone reboot it stays on the boot animation and get stuck there. I have tried 2 different boot animation and the same happen.
I have no problem to restore my data since I had backup but I would like to have the seearms ROM. Any idea?
Also a side question, can we get the new CK1 modem with seearms?
Richard

Have you been wiping your phone before flashing the rom? I have been having issues like you describe only when i flashed a rom w/o wiping.
(In CWM Recovery: wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and advanced -> wipe dalvik cache)

No. I did not wipe. I am not interested in the new ROM if it mean wiping. I made a test by downloading a boot animation app. I trying 2 different boot animation and had the same result. The boot animation play with no sound but I have a vibration during boot and then nothing. Eventually it go back to the animation, vibrate and this repeat until I restore the backup.
I am wondering if tehre is something special about the Bell Canada boot animation?
Can I use the seearms without any boot animation folder?

I don't think it's a problem about the boot ani in particular.
I am not very familiar with the rom, since i have another device. In the seearms rom thread the dev mentioned two versions of the rom, one that requires wiping and one that does not.
So i guess it could be working out to flash the latter w/o wiping. But in my expirience those things rarely work out that way.
There might be incompabilities with the config data left behind by the rom installed before, or other possible issues.
Only way to be sure that those things aren't blocking anything is to wipe the phone and do a clean flash.
Personally i always do it that way. And if i like the rom, and choose to use it, it is always possible to get back all the apps and settings back with titanium backup and/or syncing them back.
But as always before wiping, if you choose to do so, please be sure to have a full nandroid backup, in case you want to go back, or something goes wrong.

I will try the wipe version

What rom were u on before seearms

I was still on stock (froyo 2.2). Actually still on it today

You were right. The wipe version worked fine. I have now to decide to keep it or not...lol

ROM is awasome was worth well the trouble.

Glad it worked out for you - have fun with the rom

[Q] Can't install anything through recovery

Hey guys, so I had MIUI since it came out and kept updating it every friday like I'm sure everyone else does that has it, but today I wanted to try out a Gingerbread ROM other than MIUI or CM7 so I went and tried to install Mosaic IV. I followed the tutorial on MobileTechVideos for installing it and when I got to the part where I had to install the zip from the sd card I did it and it got stuck at formatting partitions. So I waited a while, about ten minutes, then took out the battery and tried starting over from stock again. Then I realized that I was supposed to use a different kernel for Mosaic IV then the one Josh used in the video. So I downloaded that kernel and used that one instead of the one he used in the tutorial. And I couldn't get into recovery mode with it. So I flashed to stock again and redid the whole thing, this time I got into recovery and flashed it but it still got stuck at formatting partitions. So at this point I was like crap I have to get a different ROM. So I tried flashing Serendipity and that wouldn't install either. Then I tried MIUI again to at least get back to what I had earlier today, and I got an error while flashing the captivate-efsbackup zip in recovery. I have no idea what to do, all I want is to just get off of the stock firmware which im stuck with for now since I have to go to work in a little bit. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I had a similar problem, and the ultimate fix for me was this:
Flash back to eclair stock (which you did)
Master Clear (aka format internal sd - make sure to back up your stuff first!)
Install CWM (may have to go manually - renaming to update.zip and reinstalling packages)
Wipe dalvik cache and cache partition, as well as user data
Install a stable Froyo ROM (take your pick, preferably a full-wipe with no bootloaders)
Reboot to CWM and do a second dalvik/cache/user data cleaning
(If you're going GB)
reboot to download mode
flash stock GB (WATCH OUT FOR BOOTLOADERS!)
boot it up, let it settle, reboot to CWM
flash your GB rom.
(If not)
Go where you would go from a stable Froyo Rom.
That's how I got back from a messed up phone with GB bootloaders to a working Mosaic installation. I can't say it will definitely work for you, but it may give you some ideas.

+1 get clockwork recovery...you need to make sure the rom you are flashing is compatible with the version of CWR you are using.
For example a rom that needs to be installed with CWR3 you will need to install the zip presumably from CWR2. Pull the battery and reboot back to recovery - you should now be in the updated version of CWR. Then for safety sake - re install your zip.
Reboot and you should be all set.
I had lots of trouble going from 2.2 to 2.3. Flashing between 2.3 roms is very easy comparatively

so your saying that you went to a gingerbread rom straight from MIUI? if that's true it failed because you didn't have the gingerbread bootloaders before you installed the rom

I flashed the gingerbread stock rom and have it rooted with xcal's kernel, but when i flashed mosaic IV it got stuck at formatting partitions and i pulled the battery after about 15 minutes and then restarted my phone to find it stuck in a bootloop. So i had to start from stock again and now im back to gingerbread stock with root. I'm kinda scared to try again because it takes me like 30 minutes to get back to gingerbread stock with root. I think ill just stick with stock for a little bit
