[Q] Any reason for ICS to break itself?

Hi there,
Have been using ICS on my galaxy s for a couple of months. However this is the second time out of the blue it's decided not to boot for me.
The first time I thought it was because I dropped it and reinstalled gingerbread through Odin, then went back to ICS which was a very lengthy process.
I haven't installed anything, and now after just using the phone as per normal and it's decided to stop working? Any tricks I can do?
Basically it boots up, gets to the loading screen and just does that forever. I can boot into recovery but not sure what I should be doing next.
You could try reflashing your rom from recovery .
I think it's necessary to know which ICS-rom, for example slim ICS 2.8 needs to flash kernel first and then the rom ...

Thanks imgibby123, if that is the last resort I may as well try it.
I've actually forgotton which one it is, I flashed ages ago and was very stable it just literally broke itself (a number of apps where crashing this mornign (reader, gmail etcc), so I held down the power button, turned it off as per normal, now the phone won't get passed the loading boot animation).
It was cynogen something, team platypus - I feel stupid I can't recall the details. But the ROM is still on there so I'll try reflashing from recovery.
Edit: It's ICS 4.0.3 RC3.1, so obviously still a RC but still! It worked flawlessly for months before
Thanks for the help.

Booting problem

Hi
I'm having problems when turning on my galaxy note. I was using Paranoid Android J.B. and was playing Death Trigger happily when suddenly the screen started acting like an old T.V. I got scared so I exited the game and rebooted the phone and got stuck so I re restarted the phone by long pressing the power button but this time it didn't boot but only appeared quickly the galaxy note N-7000 screen and turned off.
At first I charged the phone thinking maybe it was low on battery but happened the same. Then I entered to recovery mode after pressing the buttons a longer than usual time and installed P.A. CM9. Everything was ok but 15 minutes later I ran off of battery and the phone turned off. I charged again the phone and after a few minutes I tried to turn on the phone but I couldn't because again all I got was a quick flash of the galaxy note screen.
I entered again on the recovery mode but this time I only selected the reboot phone option and it turned on as always.
Does someone knows what could it be or how to fix it?
Would you recommend me to install stock rom and unroot the phone just in case?
Thanks four your help
Hello perri.etb, you could first try another custom firmware and see if the exact problem persists. You could then try a stock firmware just to double-check.

That's why I installed Paranoid Android CM9. I have used it some time and know that it works perfectly but yeah, maybe installing a TW rom could work. I'll try.
Edit
I installed another rom and everything worked fine. Now I installed again P.A. CM9 and everything is fine.
Thanks.

[Q] Get past bootscreen on i9000b without losing data

Good morning.
first of all, I've already read most of the posts that concern recovering the mobile, but here's the thing:
I flashed other ROMs a while ago, the ICS one iirc, then gave up and changed back to stock froyo, followed by an update to gingerbread via Kies, so my SGS already has the stock ROM. Everything worked fine, as expected, but once in a while when i turned the phone off and back on again, it got on a bootloop, and after many attempts it started ok. It also used to crash and turn itself off sometimes, but since it rarely happened, I wasnt bothered by that.
This time, I had to turn it off, and it just doent start back. I can access download and recovery mode, but since I have some things in its memory that I dont have backup, I really wanted to avoid the hard reset.
Do someone has any idea of how to proceed?
Thanks very much.

do you have clockworkmod recovery? if so then wipe cache, dalvik cache and fix permissions.
if not boot to download mode and flash cwm. then do same as above :good:

[Q] Note randomly turns off and gets stuck in bootloop.

I've had my Note for around a month now, and I'm having an issue where the phone will shut itself down at a random time.
If you try to turn the phone on, it'll get stuck on the Galaxy Note N7000 splashscreen. Occasionally if I go into recovery
and select Reboot Phone Now it'll boot properly, but very rarely does it work. I've also tried leaving it on the splashscreen
and coming back an hour later and it will be fine again. It happened twice yesterday and once today.
If I can't get it to boot, the only thing I can do is restore a CWM backup, but doing that multiple times a day is very frustrating.
I'm running a stock XXLSA deodexed and rooted ROM. I've also tried a stock XXLSA non-deodexed and unrooted ROM with the
same issue. The phone was working fine on ICS 4.0.4, but I really need the use of MultiWindow so downgrading is not an option.
I'm using Philz Kernel 3.99.
Any ideas?

That's a common issue with the JB leaks. You have the following options:
- Do a nand backup, do a full wipe, format cache, system and preload, restore your nand backup (might work)
- Do a full wipe, format cache, system and preload, reflash the rom (works always)
Even if you manage to fix it, be prepared that the problem will occur again. For me it was always the same, I flashed the rom, it worked for several days, suddenly it got stuck at the boot logo, I fixed it, after several days the bootloop reoccured.... Eventually I decided to flash a stock ICS rom in order the get a stable device.

Problem restarting Galaxy Note

Hi guys
I have a problem with my Note. I have installed several roms over the last year without any problems. Recently though I had a problem. I had been using about a week or two the ROM SuperNexus but a few days ago the powerbutton started not to work. It would at some moments work and some other moments it wouldn't. Very frustrating. I reinstalled the ROM, still didn't help. Then I installed a different ROM. It worked but not for long. Now it also started to reboot itself every 5 minutes or so. No idea why. I decided then to flash a new kernel. Abyss didn't work like I wanted so I installed Speedmod kernel and then installed the stock JB rom. Now that worked all fine and well. No problems at all, but the weird thing is when it gets to about 20-30% on battery, it reboots and then gets stuck at the bootscreen.
Why would this be? I'm afraid there is something really wrong with the phone. Does anyone have an idea what this could be or how I may be able to fix it?
Thanks in advance
Daniel
Edit: Also should not when it gets stuck at boot, wiping data/reset factory helps. Also when it's stuck at the bootscreen, it does get warm I find.
I just did a test with the App eMMC BrickBug Test and it said that Yes. Insane chip.

1. Boot your phone in recovery and flash the latest kernel from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789397
2. Restart and allow some time to settle.
3. reboot and do wipe data /factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
4. Use pc Odin to flash stock ROM from sammobile.com
5. Check if it works and update...
