[Q] Help: Motorola Milestone Stuck at Motorola Logo on boot - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

i rooted my milestone a few months ago (g.o.t.) and recently i tried to install the shadowsmod gingerbread rom onto it. when i restart the phone it stuck at the Motorola boot logo (M). i can enter recovery mode and do a factory reset but the problem still remains. maybe i just have to flash the stock sbf to fix the issue but the problem is that my battery is almost deplete and that the phone wont charge itself so if i enter the bootloader it'll say: battery Low cannot Program. please help me, i searched hours long for solutions but nothing worked.
Thanks in advance

Have you done a nandroid backup? If so, you must be able to nandroid restore the Milestone, if you still have some batery left. It is usually pretty quick the restore. And if done correctly, your "stone" will be back. Next time flash the phone only when you have a fully charged battery. That would be what I would do.
Hope it helps.

YESS thank you ! i am so stupid : i DID do a nandroid backup but for some reason i forgot it! it works it really works! thanks alot your a lifesaver

Glad I could help . But you went lucky. As soon as I send the reply I though to myself, if the flash is done through .sbfs it must erase the open recovery partition. So, no nandroid restore option. But I guess you where trying to flash the roms from within the open recovery itself. So that way i believe the open recovery partition still remais untoutched. Not shure though.
Anyway, it still worked. And that´s the most important thing.
See you around.

normally if you have this problem after install a new rom, you just need to clear the cache / dalvik cache and it'll fix it

i have the same problem but i installed a rom with Droid 2 recovery bootstrap. before flashing i maked a nandroid backup but i cant get acces to restore. anyone can help me?

just reflash stock firmware. i have Droid2 Global and haved same problem but, reflashed stock firmware, root and after install bootstrap recovery, worked for me. may be helped you?

Need help! stuck in unlocked boot image!

Hey guys i need some serious help
Im coming from cm5.0.8.1,froyo radio, pershoots kernel. I tried to go to jand-o-rama. final 9.
So i did a nandroid back + clockworkmod backup. Now i wiped evrything,dalvik-cache, cache, restore/factory settings and battery. When i was flashing kand-o-rama everything went well except the last part were i think it was flashing the kernel. It said error(couldn't remember the code). So i did another full wipe and tried to restore to my previous version but when i did its just stuck on the colored X with the unlock sign. I tried several full wipe/restore with no luck. I also tried to full wipe/restore factory settings then reboot but still wouldn't go past the bootloader.
Also tried to reinstall fastboot but still the same.
Im not good with ADB so pls if you can help me with my dilemma.
Pls pls..
Thanks!

Bootloop after the factory reset

Hi guys.
I was planning to install CM 7.2 on my Galaxy Ace for quite a long time and decided to do it today. I have rooted my phone and installed CWM on it, following steps described on the forum. I have made some backups with CWM and My Backup Root. Everything was fine, I have turned my phone off and back on without any problems. However, after doing the factory reset and clearing cache partition via CWM I cannot get past the bootloop animation, it keeps showing my network logo and Samsung logo. After about 5 minutes I have pulled the battery out and restored the CWM backup, but it didn't help. Any idea of what to do to bring my phone back to life?
Thanks,
Draggy
I have flashed my phone with the latest Samsung Galaxy Ace firmware using Odin, but it didn't help - instead of O2 logo there is only the Samsung animation now. I really don't know what to do.
Try a FULL Odin package, and make sure your phone model is the exact one of the rom you are flashing (5830/5830i etc)

After flashing the new software I had to take the battery out and then go to the recovery mode and do the factory reset again. I think I now need to root my phone again and install CWM, as I've got the stock recovery now. Thanks for help.

Be careful next time
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
The problem is that I haven't done anything wrong. I followed the steps from the forum and I would have never thought that the bootloop may happen because of factory resetting the phone. Anyway, I'll try and get the CM working tonight. :silly:

Xperia SP C5303 Bootloop Help

Hello xda community,
First I have to say I'm french so sorry for my english
I really need your help. I've bought that phone TWO days ago and it already doesn't work. Lemme explain:
- I used DooMLoRD method to Root and install CWM (C5303 model with locked bootloader).
- I installed Xperia Pureness. Wiped System, Cache, Dalvik... It worked fine.
- But i after a few hours Home button didnt work eek so I decided to reflash the rom to reload the System UI. As I used to do with my HTC Sensation, i only wiped dalvik cache and cache for the 2nd flash (ERROR). I realised after have rebooted that i should have had wiped System too.
- It didnt boot since this 2nd flash.
- I've been trying to repair it for this ENTIRE day, nothing happens (pressed red button 5 secs, 10 secs, also tried to reflashed stock .254 ftf with FlashTool...), still can't access Home...
Can you devs find a solution? I really need to repair my phone, bought it 2 day ago :crying:
PS: it doesn't matter if i loose data on my phone

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm always on bootloop, so can't even access CWM, is it still possible to flash a ROM, or access CWM? I've tried something like 10 times to reinstall stock ROM with FlashTool, still stuck at bootscreen.
I didnt think about making a backup

You're going to have to do the MLG restore. See the link in my signature for info on how to do it and links to where you can get the stuff you'll need.
If you don't want to attempt the MLG restore, you'll have to go the the Samsung Experience Center at your local Best Buy and have them reflash it for you.
thankz man. I am working on it now. It's already 2:39 AM here now. real late. any way, thank you bro for the awesome prompt answer.

TWRP recovery loop

So the case was I reset my device, and later after i flashed a ROM into my device, it does not boot. Instead, it goes into TWRP recovery. And it goes to TWRP every time i boot my device.
I have done this for so many times and I cannot even know what is going wrong this time. I am quite frustrated and I did googled a lot but it did not solve my problem. So, I want to know if anyone else encounter similar problem and solution towards it.
I tried:
1. Wipe the dalvik cache.
2. Remove the battery for half an hour
3. Reflash the twrp
Any efforts and reply is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Mine's exactly the same, I factory reset so I could pass the phone on; and now it will not install custom roms, I've tried about 7 or 8, and it will only boot into twrp 3.0.2-5. Soft brick, but I'm unable to find any solution.
Here's hoping someone will come and help.
I think I'll have to reinstall twrp by connecting the phone to the computer, but I've no idea how to do this.

Exactly the same issue here too, installed lineage 14.1, was working great, I was selling to a friend, did a factory reset, now stuck at twrp, roms install etc, but after a reset, every time straight back to TWRP.
Looks like I might need to flash back to stock somehow.
But I did find this, but not yet tried.

That is good to know, I shall attempt to do the same, did you later install a custom rom and everything was fine afterwards?
Yes, i flashed custom recovery and ROM afterward. Even several attempt on wipe and flash the new ROM. So i guess it should be fixed
Thank you.

As slifer225 mentioned you can downgrade to stock firmware by installing the stock MM rom s433 version using spftools.
Download and Install stock MM rom using spftools.
Here is the link- https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Cco5/JYk3ytrW1
For further info follow this post- https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-...3#post71749243
Follow this step by step guide to go back to unrooted stock rom. If you want to root after that then try installing custom recovery(twrp) again using spftools and flash supersu.zip using recovery. Do take a backup though before rooting your device.

Everything is working perfectly as I myself had gone through the same issue and did everything to fix the problem until I downgraded back to stock. Did root on my device again and installed lineage 7.1.1 and it works like a charm. One thing I love about this rom is the efficient ram management, lag free but battery management is not upto the mark but I guess we can work it out.
Whatever you do never forget taking a backup of functional rom.
Yes, I can confirm the solution worked for me, I left it with stock rom for my friend, I tried lineage 14.1 and did a factory reset, but ended once again with softbrick , lineage will install and work perfectly, but as soon as you do a factory reset, soft brick
Now I've hard bricked it. I loaded up a 'looprecovery' when it rebooted there's nothing, no charge light no vibrations PC doesn't see it, land fill?
Wondering...

Not working for Lenovo K3 Note.
