Hello all
I recently upgrade to an HTC TBolt but decided to keep my droid for mp3 playing since it has great battery life.
Well I went to download CM7 RC4 and the download always stopped I chalked this up to bad wifi signal no big deal. Downloaded the zip on computer moved it to the SD.
So not I go to boot into CWR and it wont, tried through CM7 reboot menu, rom manager, x + power, power + volume down still nothing.
The phone boots to moto logo site for a bit goes black and back to moto logo for a few seconds or so then goes right to CM7 bootlogo...
Tried a CWR reinstall didnt seem to work. Also rom manager wont install updated version and it wont install the alternative recovery...
Motorola Droid
CyanogenMod 7 RC2
Rom Manager 3.0.0.7
Clockwork Recovery 2.5.0.1
Any help with figuring this out would be great and thank you in advance.

Ok so i rooted my moto droid i just got in and installed ROM Manager. I Dl'ed the newest stable version of the cyanogenmod rom and choose to make a backup and install the new rom. the backup failed and moved on by itself to installing the ROM. after it was done and rebooted the boot logos have just been repeating themselves over and over. It has the "droid" logo that turns into the red eye. Can anyone please help me. I just want a "working" custom moto droid. Thanks
Can you boot into recovery (hold x while you power on)?
I had the same issue and could not get into recovery. I removed the battery from my Droid to turn it off, connected my Droid to my computer, started RSD Lite and re-flashed SP Recovery. I was then able to boot into recovery and reinstall my previous ROM (which you can do if you have a valid backup). That got be back to normal save reinstalling apps.
Some time ago, when I did my first flash process on android I fell on that very problem, and I could fix that flashing again, BUT I think that is very important to do a factory reset before that, so, yes, go to your Open Recovery and clean first your phone, then flash it again and I hope you are done.. good luck
So I have one of the original 'lucky' i9000m phones with working recovery and download.
I was on Darky's resurrection 9.2 ROM and it was working fine for the past month or so and then the Facebook app buggered up some stuff.
Blah blah, long story short after the last time I did a Wipe Data/System from CWM, it is now stuck at the White on black Galaxy S boot logo (not the loading animation).
tried reflashing the ROM but no luck. I can still of course go into recovery and download, so I'm not worried about it being a brick, just want to be able to use my phone.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I also tried flashing CM7 on here again. Same deal, it flashes on fine, it even swaps out to the CM7 boot screen (again not the loading animation) but won't go any further.
I don't think it's a brick, but I'm running out of ideas.
Nevermind.
Flashed CM7 again and used the latest nightly initial package. Worked like a charm
I just rooted my phone with SuperOneClick and was a huge success, started installing apps like superuser elite, setcpu and rom manager pro. I also installed clockworkmod and went on really great, I could acces the recovery mode by holding the pwer button and volume down. Tried installing CM7 on my phone using rom manager and CWM failed to backup, tried it several times and still nothing. so I tried not backing it up, CM7 kind of installed then suddenly my phone restarted. It went through the first lg logo which is all white then flashed to the other logo (with the colors in the background) and it was stuck there. I tried booting to recovery mode but it doesn't work. Please help me, I'm a super noob when it comes to all this development stuff and I would really appreciate it if anyone helps me with it.
There's a solution. Se http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041248 for a solution.
I have rooted my lg thrill using ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.4.3 a while back.I noticed the battery would drain fast.So I wiped the data on the phone thinking that would help I did not make a back up.When the phone booted back up i see the lg logo then it takes me straight into cwm. So I downloaded a rom to put on there.It said the rom installed. But when I reboot again I see the same thing lg logo then cwm.Is there any thing I can do now or is it like a concrete brick?

I recently bought a LG Optimus Black (LG-P970g is what it says under the battery). The phone came with Android 4.0.4. The battery life was terrible and I wanted to try Cyanogenmod to see if I could get better life (and more features).
I was able to root the phone and install ROM Manager. I went through the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery option and it said I successfully flashed it. I put the ROM on the SD card and had ROM Manager restart into recovery mode. However, instead of booting up I get the LG screen with 'Security Error' on it and then the phone shuts off.
How can I get the phone back up?
Resmartflash. Or try to access recovery via bootloader. Or adb reboot recovery. I think you flashed a gb rom on ics bootloader... which is not working.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
I was able to use SmartFlash and a GB rom to get the phone back up and running. Now to see if I can get it up to cyanogenmod.
