Infinite first boot after flashing Droid 4 with CyanogenMod 10.1 - Motorola Droid 4

Howdy.
I've just flashed CyanogenMod 10.1 - 20130315 to my droid 4 with Safestrap, and I haven't been able to boot into it; the cyanogenmod splash screen with the rotating wheel graphic shows up, but it spins for upwards of 40 minutes without doing anything.
I followed the guide on the cyanogenmod wiki for the droid 4 device. The forum won't let me post a link to it.
Before I installed I wiped / factory reset, and after install I wiped cache/dalvik; still no dice. I've tried doing the same process several times (even wiking the system before trying to reflash), but the same result has always occurred: ever unhelpful eternal wheel...
I'm a bit at my wits end; I haven't been able to find any other information about this that wasn't solved by wiping cache / dalvik, so I turn to y'all for help.

Are installing on ROM slot 1? Also, you used to have to wipe data before booting the first time. Not sure if this is still the case but might want to give it a shot.

That would be my guess too, make sure you created a rom slot and flashed to that, rather than flashing to the stock rom. The only roms that work when flashing to the stock rom are stock-based roms such as olegfusion or eclipse.

[SOLVED] Unstable accelerometer on ICS rom

I'm desperate with this one please help me! I'm using SlimICS but it seems like i have a miscalibrated accelerometer. I tried apps to calibrate but doesnt work. I read somewhere about the sensorcalibutil_yamaha located in /system/bin/ but I cant find mine. Cant play asphalt or any landscape accelerometer games bacause it kept tilting. I searched everywhere regarding this but still cant find an answer. Im using semaphore kernel in case it has something to do with this.

Solution: I flashed back to Gingerbread rom, did the horizontal calibration and flashed custom ICS rom. Works for me
Go into settings/display/horizontal calabration.
Please hit thanks!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
that wont help. As I've said, im on ICS rom and horizontal calibration is not in the settings. I tried gps status but didnt work either. I'd like to know how to calibrate it with emulator.

Well if you go back to gb and calabrate then go back to ice that might work. Unless of course you tried that already. Make backups in TB first if you don't want to lose anything.

Thnks but is there any other way besides flashing to GB rom? I dont want to wipe my datas.

BUMP for those experiencing the same issue.
Bump
I've got the same problem but I really really don't want to reflash my phone 2 more times. Is there a way to calibrate? I'm currently on Cyanogen Mod 9 Nightly Build

I dont think there's another way buddy. I've searched everywhere but nothing helps. Flashing to GB rom is the only one that helped me.

Try reflash the rom you're on then u don't have wipe, only clear cache and dalvik
Maybe format system in recovery,find it in mount/storage and clear cache and dalvik,then reflash rom
I'll be putting the new nightly in a second so I'll try that. What will happen when I format system?

[Q] Bootloop after flashing Gummy

Hi, guys,
I am recently rooted. I am experienced in rooting (Eris and Incredible), but you all know the Droid 3 is a little different. I am gaining CM recovery with the bootstrap app. I flashed gummy 1.2.0 but I keep getting stuck in the animation. I am wiping dalvik and data, and I know I am doing everything right.
I flashed Gummy 0.9 last night and it worked perfectly except I had no 3g, so I researched and discovered 1.2.0 was released which fixed the problem, so I tried it to no avail. I LOVED Gummy 0.9, and I would really love to have Gummy on my phone. Any suggestions would be great.
And yes, I have been searching the site since last night.
Try flashing Safestrap instead.

[MOD][CM10] Transparent lockscreen

Transparent mod based off of this mod here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32385363
Download attached zip
reboot recovery
flash transparent_lockscreen_mod.zip
wipe cache and dalvik
reboot
this only works on CM10!
NOTE: first lock and unlock will be black, second should be transparent, this is on every boot i believe, have fun!
this *might* cause lockscreen settings to lock up and reboot your phone at times, only happened once for me
Thanks xboxfanj for the help
First! For iSaint! The one and only Gonna test drive this for ya Andy. Needed something to do at work,lol

This is nice Andy. This is one like the evilisto guy. I love the optimus 4X one best. Thanks I wanted to try this out.
Sent from your phone.....turn around.....
Wow I really don't like the transparency on the lockscreen like I thought I would... maybe the screenshots aren't doing it justice... thanks for this though, always nice to have options... hopefully be getting a new epic in a few days so the more things to flash the better...

[RECOVERY][SCH-I705][2012-24-10] Unofficial CWM 6.0.1.2 for VZW G Tab 2 7.0

This recovery is an older port. For a source build version see this thread
UNOFFICIAL CWM 6.0.1.2 non-touch
NOTICE: I am not responsible for your device!​
NOTE: This CWM was ported from VZW SGS3
I have successfully ported CWM to our device. It is NOT an official release, nor is it built from source.. I'm still working on that one. BUT, for now, we have this. This has been tested on my device. I've successfully made a backup, wiped everything, and restored. Device is still alive
YOU MUST BE ROOTED!
How to flash:
1. Download CWM 6.0.1.2 to the root of your SD Card -- *old thread*
2. From Terminal emulator or ADB do the following:
From ADB
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot recovery
From Terminal
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot recovery
Congratulations! You should now have a functional CWM recovery.
Once you got custom, NEVER accept an OTA!. Verizon released an OTA for the SCH-I705 that makes changes to recovery, boot, and aboot, THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BREAK YOUR ROOT AND UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER! DO NOT ACCEPT!
TO RETURN TO STOCK RECOVERY
Follow the same procedures above, except flash this recovery instead of the CWM recovery.
*Old thread*
Thanks to:
ruben00 - for helping me out with repacking
invisiblek - for his mkbootimg cmdline values, they worked!
Whoever built the GS3 recovery I ported.. Can't remember for the life of me.​
Good work. Wish I could test.
Wonder if mobile Odin would work to flash this like on the other gt2 models.
i just tryed it. it worked perfectly. thanks.. your the man. now when i get home on Monday from the honeymoon. i will build a kernel for it. need a little more speed.

Is there a new thread you guys are working out of? I haven't seen any activity in awhile. Your probably just busy.. I just want to stay in the loop!
Thanks, Nexttonomy
I've been really busy and haven't had a whole lot of time this week. I've also moved most of the work to PMs between a few people.

Yes, using titanium you can freeze SDM.
Green icon with a phone and up arrow. Freeze or uninstall with titanium and verizon won't know what hit em.

No, VZW Tab 2 only. Only ever flash a recovery built for your device.
Just got word.. That update was nothing important. Other then. It was only for wifi pop up screen.. And data usage software.. Just more bull **** for Verizon running the battery down..

Hey guys, I'm not sure if many of you know who jt is, but he's been developing on samsung devices since the fascinate. He's done great work on both the device mentioned and the samsung galaxy tab org. If he had the galaxy tab 2 and some beer, you can bet your ass he would get some work done on it.
I'll put in 20. Anyone else down for raising some money to get this dude a device?
All do respect. These tablets around 350 bucks. And there Really not that many owners on here. So the goal would never be reached. Just hang in there. Few of us development people are working on this. Should have something with in a month.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent SkyBlue Tapatalk 2
Unfortunately I don't have a lot of cash to spare. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a wedding after that all just within three months for me. Great offer though!
However, do you think he'd mind lending a helping hand by giving us some advice/input?
Anybody got a link to the origional build released on the verizon galaxy tab 2? Need to downgrade to gain root I think.
Month came and went. Still nothing. LOL

Custom roms

Is there still the problem with the partitions if I flash a custom rom such as aokp Or cm 10.1? I'd like to flash one but last time which was a couple months ago I had the problem of having to reformat data to get my sd card back to normal in order to go back to a sense Rom . Thanks for any input

I was never aware that AOSP Roms were corrupting storage. You had to format your storage?
Or do you mean the whole 4.1 > 4.2 thing? Where a 0 folder would be created?
This is what your looking for.

Yes. You are correct. Does the problem still remain where multiple folders are created? Thanks

It does and always will. But there is this flashable zip that moves all the files for you. You can search this forum and find it.
EDIT: whoops! Look above. That's the zip.
