Just received my phone today and it was okay for a while and now it just reboots it self.
Try do the hard reset first. Turn off, press volume up + menu button + power button together. Follow the instructions from there.

It is rebooting quicker than I can factory reset it.

When you have a sd-card installed:
... try to turn it off and remove the sd-card, wait for about 3 minutes and boot again. There is a little change, that you run into a bootloop:
a) depending on too many apps installed on the sd-card
or
b) that your sd-card gets to hot, so the system reboots by itself

Hi All,
I was attempting to perform the 8 failed boots unrooting trick and it worked to get the update started but now it is just endlessly rebooting and running the update again.
Anyone know how I can fix this? I can't even turn it off without interrupting the update process.
Maybe try interrupting it with nooter? Then go back to holding the volume up and the power?

So what did you do? I am having the same problem...
me too! what was the fix?
Have you tried the 3 button data reset? Hold down the N key, power button and volume up button.

Tried that, it goes through the factory reset process just fine, but on reboot goes right back to the "down arrow" install screen
I'm trying to get putty.exe to work (thinking boot count is stuck at 8)- but getting a "network timed out" error and it's unresponsive.

I hate when that happens!
Ok, I got it working, Thanks Bu By.
My solution
I was stuck in an infinite bootloop that drained battery to the point to the Nook not booting.
After a full charge, I used a Nookie Froyo (0.5.6) card to boot.
Then, re-enabled ADB in Win7 and then reset the BootCnt file to 8, forcing an update back to 1.0.0
THEN, ontop of that I had to do the 3 finger salute to wipe /data.
After that, I was very careful in adding my hacks back in there one at a time to make sure I find the reboot culprit.
I've been running 24+hours without reset. ( My suspicion is that something in the autoconfig script is causing issues so I removed some of the code before running the batch file)
My nook froze while in recovery. I was wasn't flashing anything yet just deleting the caches. Is there any way to force shutdown while in recovery besides letting the battery drain?
Strange, it reinstalled my last rom instead of boot looping.
Nevermind just gotta hold down the power button. Hope recovery is volume down and power.
I've had that same prob a few times.... I just wait a few min in case its still working, then just hold power till it shuts down.

Hope your right. I just date wiped again and it froze it again. I'll leave it along for a few.
Edit: Does anyone know what i might be doing wrong. I go into recovery wipe and it freezes. I've tried like 4 time already
Mine freezes every time I do a data wipe also. Have to force power off and go back in.

how do you make it go back into recovery. volume down and power? that doesnt work for me.
I've shut it down but when it reboots as i'm holding down volume down it boots the rom back. After i go into recovery again to from rom manager the cycle just continues.
n button + power to boot in recovery
Some clarification....
To do a hard power off at any point hold down the n and the power buttons together for about 7 seconds. This works is any state.
To boot into recovery takes some practice. From the completely off position you need to hold down the n and the power button for a specific amount off time. Releasing too soon or too late will not work.
For me it works if I release after 3 or 4 seconds, once I see the "Touch the Future..." words. You really do need to practice!

You're not the only one. My recovery hangs any time i clear dalvik cache and requires a reboot. As for booting into recovery, like the poster above mentioned, it takes some practice (n+power release 2-3 seconds after you see Read Forever text).
What I learned.
After clearing "dalvik cache" or a "data wipe" will cause my recovery to lock up. After unsuccessfully being able to boot into my recovery, wipe, and install the rom I decided to do something stupid. Knowing that the nightly #77 wouldn't boot without a kernel, I flashed it via rom manager app. I was not able to flash the needed kernel but for some reason I thought that flashing the rom would redo my recovery. I was dead wrong. What I was left with was a NC which hung at the boot screen due to not having the .32 kernel and device which for the life of me wouldn't be put into recovery. I really think I lost recovery because I tried and tried but couldn't get it into recovery. Naturally, I freaked out. With advice from Paul22000 who provided me the link on how to boot recovery from an sdcard, the nook was fixed 5 hours later. Only 10 minutes of work, but I had to leave it NC out of service until I got back from taking the girlfriend out to watch bridesmaid. Oh, and I can't forget the quick trip to walmart for an extra sdcard.
Hi All - while in the process upgrading from the previous version of MIUI to this latest one, I accidentally selected the 'restart system option after formatting the system, cache and data without flushing the new ROM and now the phone won't boot up. It goes to the main Galaxy S screen followed by Galaxy S Glitch screen then it runs some coding (in seconds so i don't know what is says) and then back to main Galaxy screen in a loop.
What I have tried
> Going to recovery mode with vol up + home + power button (released @ first Samsung Screen) but then it goes back to second Galaxy S Glitch screen in the same loop.
> Going to download mode with vol down + home + power button and it does the same as going into recovery mode.
> Tried to do go into recovery and download mode multiple times using different combinations of vol up, vol down, home and power button without success.
> Read through the threads here but I was not able to find anything with the same or similar problem problem
> I tried to follow the help provided by Thyrador on this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109110 with Odin except using the jig method and no go
> Connecting phone to ODIN keeps on going rebooting in the phone in a loop as well.
I know if I can go into recovery mode I will be able to flush the new ROM but getting there is the problem.
I would appreciate your help with this and hope there is a fixable solution.

I have done that a few times and both CWM and download mode should be there.
Make sure everytime you try the 3 buttons you actually remove the battery before trying.
K.
Edit: the coding you are talking about is CWM trying something and that's shy I think it is still there.
Did you just format system?

Thanks for your response
I actually formatted the system, data and cache without flushing the new ROM.
I tried what you said about removing the battery but that didn't show anything on the screen when I tried the 3 buttons. Is that what you meant?
cheers

What I meant was a bit dumb as since you have a bootoop you would have removed the battery anyway each time to try.
I normally flash the same way like you and I always do a factory reset (which formats Data and cache and I do the system manually. Unless soemthing has gone seriously wrong I don't see why you would not be able to get back to recovery?
I have even done it today actually and managed to go back to recovery.
I would say try and boot into download mode. Did you use Download Mode in the past? Are you sure it is there?
I read somewhere else someone saying that it does not always work the first time. Give it a few tries.
Your last option would be the JIG obviously but hopefully you should be able to get it sorted without.
K.
To tell you the truth I always use an app to boot the phone into recovery or download mode however one of my work colleagues has always being able to reboot my phone into any of these modes using the three buttons - not sure how. I will continue to try anyway.
Thanks again for your response and for give me hope that this has happened to you in the past.
cheers
i have been using my note for about three weeks now.. but for the past two weeks, i noticed that when i lock my note, it automatically opens.. it's like im pressing the home button.. then the screen will sleep then open again and again.. what will i do??
Hello
Is your note original not rooted?
Try factory reset!
Home button volume up and power button.
Hold it for a few seconds.
Than you are in recovery and select factory reset.
how will i do that?? it's original not rooted
No problem
just hold power and home and volume up together for a few seconds.
You will come in recovery and select factory reset.
and when finish reboot.
then all my files will be deleted?? i just rebooted it then it stopped opening it self.. when it happened again i will reset it just like you said.. thanks for the help
Its normal that you have to install all again because
a factory reset will wipe all applications
Nice only reboot and good again
thanks for the help
I installed clockwork mod recovery on my phone. Had a ROM to install, however the ROM installer package wasn't working properly. I mistakenly restarted my phone after having formatted my phone to install the ROM. So now the phone has started up to the white HTC screen and will not go any further. I cannot get it to restart into recovery or to simply power down. Do I need to just let the battery die and then restart into recovery or is there a hardware way to get it to restart without tearing the phone apart? Thanks!
Maybe try power plus volume up?

Just holding the power button for 10 seconds or so. It should power off. It is essentially the same thing as pulling the battery (on phone where you can do that).

Volume UP plus Power for 10 seconds worked to get it to power down. Then I was able to access recovery. Thank you
