I have used the RSD to flash it but my droid remains at the power up status.The animation of a flashy vedio display card(I don't know how to call it.) plays again and again.The RSD said "Please manually power up this phone."If I try to enter the recovery mode my phone will display a broken robot for a long time then reboot by itself.What can I do now?
Hold Power and Volume Down(For like 5-10 Seconds) and it will shut off, then go to the boot loader(Power + Volume Up + Volume Down) and choose recovery and Clear Cache which should fix it. If not you might have to Factory Wipe the phone.

Hello everyone.
I got a new Galaxy Ace S5830i today.
I rooted it and installed CWM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552792).
After that I did install Retribution beta 4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1806471).
Then after rebooting I ended up getting a boot animation loop and neither the recovery mode would work nor the download mode.
Could anyone of you please help me? I feel very uncomfortable with a brick in my pocket. :x
I'd be surprised if neither were working, particularly if you are getting as far as the boot animation.
To clarify, to enter recovery mode: Switch off your phone (pull out the battery and re-insert if its looping and the power button won't work), hold down power button AND home/rectangular button AND volume up button. When you see the Samsumg GT-S5830i logo, let go of the power button but continue to hold down the home and volume up buttons for around 5 seconds then let go of everything. Recovery console should appear on screen.
To enter download mode: Switch off your phone, hold down power button AND volume up button AND volume down button. Warning about custom OS's should appear, followed by download mode after pressing volume up again. If this doesn't work try taking out battery, sim card and SD card, connecting USB lead (screen will be completely powered off) and then trying the key combination.
I just tried to install CM 10.1.3 on my Motorola Atrix HD.
I forgot to wipe data and cache before installing the ROM, and now it is stuck in the boot animation.
When I press the power and volume keys down together, it takes my phone to a black screen, and when I press them again on the black screen it gives me a brief menu that says
"Normal power up"
"Recovery"
"AP Fastboot"
"Factory"
and another one I can't recall.
This screen times out in about 3 seconds. and regardless of which item from the menu I select, it still shows my boot logo, then the CM animation. I cant boot into fastboot or recovery, and I can't find anything good online to help me.
Help! What do I do?
Hi. There's a catch about the bootloader mode (the menu you're describing). You have to press vol down to scroll down to Recovery, and then press vol up to select it. Pretty dumb IMO but that's how it is.
If you're completely sure you can't get to recovery using this method, you could try going into download mode and factory reset through fastboot:
Here's the guide to get fastboot working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226527
To go into download mode, shut down the phone completely, hold down the power button and volume down buttons. Then let go of the power button while still holding down the volume button and it should boot to fastboot (download) mode. The connect usb cable to your pc.
You can do a factory reset (format data and cache partitions) using fastboot -w.
Btw, is there any particular reason for going CM10? CM11 is just so much better now, nightlies are pretty good (12/20 has been rock solid for me, even with ART enabled).
Good luck!
My Motorola Atrix Hd won't boot up every time I turn the phone on the m logo shows up then goes to the recovery screen that have a red triangle their and stay their for a wild then goes back to the m logo how do i fix the problem
If it keeps going to recovery, you could try wiping cache and Dalvik to see of that happens. If this doesn't help, you may need to wipe the data partition too. If that doesn't help, you may have to re-flash the stock ROM.

how do i wipe the data partition
When you boot your phone, it goes right to the dead android all the time? If it does, that is recovery mode. I think you press the volume up key, select the option to wipe data, and reboot.
Special boot modes
Recovery: Hold Volume Down & Power simultaneously.
Bootloader: Hold Volume Up Volume Down & Power simultaneously. On the next screen use Volume Down to scroll to bootloader and then use Volume Up to select.
Fastboot: Hold Volume Up Volume Down & Power simultaneously. On the next screen use Volume Down to scroll to bootloader and then use Volume Up to select.

i did that but the phone is still doing the same thing
What ROM was your phone running? Does it have an unlocked bootloader? Did this happen after you did something to the ROM?
I am also have startup problems.
I manually restarted my phone and it fell into a black screen. No logo motorola. I made all [power + volume (+, -)] => My phone booted into normal.
The cause of this problem?
Since I have a problem I did not start that way anymore: Power -> Reboot
Instead I just power off.

Well hold the power button till the screen goes black .. Now don't leave the power button and press the volume down the volume button ! Now leave the volume down button and then power button.. You'll boot in to the bootloader ! Now boot into the recovery ! And flash some other ROM !
Or flash the same ROM again .. This time clear internal data , system , dalvik cache , and then flash the ROM ! Hope this works !
