Make sure you have power. Try plugging it in for a while.

Yeah that was the problem. Back to stock now. Guess now I learned to wait until I know for sure if a ROM can be flashed thru cwm.

Hi so I have cm7 7.0.2 on my nexus one. Today it froze on the unlock screen, as it has a few times before since I put cm7 on my phone, so I did a battery pull, and then it wouldn't turn on. I plugged it into my charger, and now it turns on, but just goes to the colored X screen, and then reboots in a loop, over and over again.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
Use something like RUU to go back to stock then root your phone and if you have a backup on your recovery select that once you are done setting it back to stock.

Did you do OEM UNLOCK? if you didyou can simply boot into the bootloader and then choose recovery and from there you can re flash your rom
this is exactly what happen to my phone. say good bye to our nexus one my friend, i don't think we can fix it. it's been a week.

I wouldn't bet on it, if it's simply in a boot loop then it's perfectly fixable. Go into the bootloader by holding the volume button while turning on the phone. Navigate to the recovery option using the volume buttons and confirm using the power button. From here you can wipe/restore nandroid/flash CM7 again. Also, you don't need to unlock the bootloader to do any of this.

thanks, but that's what i do, when i can't boot. it's stuck on x when i try boot to recovery, and flash boot, recovery, system, not changed the situation.
ok, i am not an expert, but just brainstorming here based on what i understood while flashing mine..
download a recovery image to your PC
get into bootloader mode on the nexus, connect it to ur pc, select the fastboot usb option on ur fone
open windows console
type:
fastboot flash recovery <image file path> and press enter.
fastboot can be located inside android-sdk. so make sure you have your present working directory set to the path of "fastboot.exe"(e.g. c:\android\android-sdk\tools)

You will either have to run PASSIMG.zip (The forums have good guides on this) or unlock your bootloader and flash the individual .img files through bootloader/fastboot.

Did you try he fastboot erase commands first? I'm not at my computer to write a quick guide but if you still need it in a few hours ill write it up. If it still gets stuck in a bootloop after that then your device is probably bricked

nexus one not rebooting after the battery drained
I am currently in the same situation. In my case the battery drained completely. I removed the battery and disconnected the charger. In the past this worked. Now what I get is the colorful X.
What I can do:
Fastboot via power and the "pearl"
Go into the boot menu via volume down and power
No matter what I chose after that I get to the same X. While this seemed promising none of the following worked:
reflashing recovery
Reflashing back to stock of radio/recovery/system/boot/
replacing battery
Any other thoughts?
Before wipe all your data on your phone in the recovery and reinstall passimg.zip

Hi my phone is unuseable now...
Everytime the messege Sorry! The process android.process.acore has stpped. Try again pops up.
I can't (or just don't now how to) enter recovery.
I also can't go to settings because the message pops up every 2 seconds.
When I click Force Close it goes back to the launcher.
Can I do a factory reset (I think it is solved then)?
How do I do that?

I'm rather sure you only have Recovery if you installed CWM. Than just press power long and select it from that menu.

What ROM do you have installed? A stock one, or a custom ROM?
Infact in both ways you can do a factory reset by:
Plug in USB cable, enable usb debugging (if you have a custom ROM, it always should be on),
download the adb package from my noob how to (see attachments)
cd to the directory containing the adb files, type:
adb reboot recovery
Now you either are in CWM and can do the wipes 1 by 1, or if you have a stock ROM, it will perform
a factory reset right away
If all of that doesnt work, you have to use smartflashtool!

I'm running streak droid honeycomb. I did a factory data reset through the settings menu and the device reboooted, appeared to be resetting but no I'm stuck on a screen with the android character and a triangle with a red exclamation.
I rooted and installed this so long ago that I'm lost. I mostly mess around with my phone. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Did you try to get into recovery after charging it? You could reflash that way or nvflash it again.
But WHY THE RUM?!!!
Follow the instructions here:
Streak 7 Flashing Guide
to get into Recovery Mode. Then select option 3; "Factory Reset (User data and Internal tablet storage".
That'll get you back to bone stock assuming all you really did was root it. Done this a bunch of times. It'll work.

I hope it's alright I jump in...as I have the same problem. Stock HoneyComb 3.2 not rooted. Would boot up fine, but was unable to get into recovery or fastboot so performed a factory reset through privacy setting and now stuck on the logo. I was (don't know now able to see connect using nvflash but unable to locate any clear instructions on how to flash a ROM (either a new one or stock). Hence the factory reset.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Thanks wptski.
Using nvflash I got back to 2.2 but the problem remains that I can't boot into either stock recovery or fastboot in order to install an update.pkg.
I can connect in AXP mode but haven't found any instructions of how I can use it to perform an update or install a custom recovery. It's a problem on the tablet - all the drivers are installed on pc and I've never had any problem in the past, as long as I could get the phone into recovery or fastboot. The symptoms are soft keys light up, battery light flashes 4-5 times and then it shuts down. I can boot up normally into 2.2
I should probably find another forum for my 'new'/old problem...as I'm not stuck at Dell logo anymore :silly:

Okay, to get into the stock recovery and /or Fastboot mode you are holding the up/down volume button and the power ON button at the same time, correct? It does take a 2-3 seconds for either to come up on the screen.
You can't installing anything from APX mode or get into recovery mode from it either.

Correct re: stock recovery/fastboot - lights flash shuts down. I can get into APX mode, that's how I got 2.2 on it.

Have you tried to NVFlash 2.2 again? From your other post, you were on 3.2 before so I'd retry the NVFlash again, at least. It seems that you got into stock recovery mode before so the buttons did work before although I have heard of them getting stuck with both ON.

I re -nvflash'd 2.2 with the same result....successful flash and can boot into OS. Still unable to get into stock recovery or fastboot. The buttons don't feel stuck - but? Can I use nvflash to get anything other than 2.2 on to it? This all started with wanting nothing more than a 'simple' root Since I"m broken, any chance I can use nvflash to to get TWRP and ICSB4 on it - nothing to lose at this point
Another thought: would moving to a linux machine open up more possibilities?

Here's a test to see if your buttons are stuck since you have the NVFlash drivers installed, with the S7 OFF just plug into your PC, if you hear the normal audio sound when you plug in something into your USB port, they are stuck. Not sure if it would boot normally with stuck buttons.

I have a quick question about this. I have never done any of the holding buttons down while you reboot nonsense to get to recovery. If I hold in the power button I get a menu. I can shut down, restart, go into recovery or start the bootloader. I just select recovery and hit restart. It boots into TWRP. Am I missing something? It seems to have worked fine with my latest rom. Maybe this situation explains the trouble i was having loading AOIP.

I think I have a unique problem here. I tried to install the Holo Blur Rom using bootstrap. After I flashed it my bootup is looping and all attempts to get into Recovery mode are fail.
When I do the Power+Vol+ I get a screen with Android on it's back and the ! but nothing ever happens. I have also tried getting into the Bootstrap menu but that doesnt work either, it goes into boot up.
Do you think there is a way to save my phone still?
- Bootloader is unlocked
- Rooted
##EDIT##
I figured it out, I did not know you had to press Pwr+ Vol+ Vol- all at once. I thought it was just Pwr+ Vol+ only. Thanks!

With an unlocked bootloader, you should use CWM or Touch Recovery, nothing else as these custom roms need one or the other to install.
