Have you tried re-flashing a new recovery?

If your s-off try a fastboot erase. If your not look into it. After a fast boot erase do a full wipe. Then reflash your recovery via adb. Then backup all your data to your pc. Then format your sd threw your pc and restore the factory defaults. Then reformat your sd threw recovery. No swap no partitions just fat/system. Then redownload the rom and gapps. Flash the rom then gapps right after. Then see if its boots up. If it does then boot into recovery make a nandroid, restore your data then and carry on. If not then run the ruu in zip format. Then update your radio, profile and prl. Then locate the hero root apk thread. Follow the instructions. After that you'll be rooted again so boot into recovery and make a nandroid of your sense rom for future updates then reboot. Then boot back into recovery do a full wipe and reflash your choice of recovery via adb then reflash the rom and the gapps. It should boot up. Hope this helps.

Hi. Would be great if anyone could help as I bricked[?] my phone earlier today.
So here's what happened.
I was on SweetRomV1 JB previously and wanted to flash back to ICS RRv12.
So I stupidly flashed Abyss Kernel from my recovery forgetting that it doesn't support JB rom.
So the CWM started refreshing itself, stopping me from surfing the menu up and down.
I pulled out the battery, place it back in. The phone started up, but the screen was empty/blank/black.
Searched on the net then I realized Abyss Kernel doesn't support JB.
So under some forumer advice, I flashed a Stock ICS Rom using PC odin.
This time, I can access recovery with no problem. However I'm still stuck, the phone is not rebooting.
I'm stuck at the Samsung logo.
So I decided to flash a new kernel using PC odin and a new rom.
I flashed SpeedMod K3-15 using Pc odin and in recovery, I flashed the RRv12 rom.
Now it's still loading the boot animation.
I'm really at a loss now. Can anyone help?
I can access download mode and recovery. But I can't place files into my ext_sd because I can't boot up my phone.
Can anyone help me to get my phone working again?
Thanks in advance.
Flash stock gb via pc odin and work from there. The problem is you flashed incompatible kernels. The flash back to original should be fine.

I did it last night. I'm able to boot up now and I'm in RRv12 now. However, what just happened was, I changed to a fresh battery to charge it.
When I boot up, it shows that battery is disconnected. So I did a power off, and pulled out the battery. Used the method online, dropped the battery from around 2 feet high.
When I place the battery in again, I'm stuck AGAIN at the boot animation.
Any help?
someone please help i tried to flash the jelly bean ftf on my v with flashtool but it crashed halfway and it cant boot beyond the exclamation mark thing. It would just shutdown. Someone please help?

Reflash the JB ftf, install CWM for JB and do factory reset there.

ive tried, but the phone goes into a bootloop ending at the exclamation mark screen everytime i plug it to the computer in flash mode. only time it works is in fastboot mode where i tried to flash different kernels to no avail.
Try formating system in CWM and install some rom in zip. Is it possible to mount system, data, cache, etc. in recovery?

Flash a recovery, backup your internal and external sdcards, format them, flash Rom, boot your phone at least one completely, restore your sdcards and done

thanks everyone for responding. I've managed to flash cm10.1 on my phone and boot it after wiping everything. However after that when i try to go back to stock/stock based roms i boot into that screen again. Any ideas why? Luckily cm10.1 is stable enough for daily use.
You just need to let it do it it's thing, when I flashed jb, I had to leave it over night on the triangle...

the problem is that it doesnt stay on that screen, but just shuts down till the next boot.
With the new boot loader unlock it comes time to use a recovery other than safe strap. The easiest way to flash a custom recovery, in this case, clockwordmod recovery, is to simply download ROM Manager and use it to flash the Motorola Photon Q version of CWM Recovery. I flashed it and booted into it and haven't experienced any problems as of yet so for those looking for a custom recovery straight out of the gate, this is for you.

Nice i don't know if i should try it or wait for an official one for our device. In the mean time back to my nexus 4
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
If you really want to give it a spin you can always flash the Photon Q version otherwise I'm sure there will be an official version ported soon

Dumb question...... if I uninstall ss and install cwm will I lose the current ROM im using?
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
You'll have to reinstall yes.

Dumb question part 2..... uninstall ss first and then install cwm? Also erase all ROM slots before uninstalling? Thanks!
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Yea make sure to erase the rom slots. I forgot to and uninstalled then was missing quite a bit of space lol.

Have you flashed anything with it?
I haven't actually tried yet flashing a ROM but since I'm on stock and don't want to flash white yet I haven't had the opportunity, as long as its flashing to the device it should work with no problems

So far, i have installed the cwm for the photon q like you, and made a back up through it. Im going to see if it will restore from it as well. ill keep everyone updated.:good:
:edit: I sucessfully backed up my stock JB rom, wiped everything, and restored everything back and everythings perfect... I dont know what else to try before attempting to flash using the photon CWM. any ideas?
I uses the photon q recovery to backup & restore, and haven't had any issues yet. No ROM flashing for the time being, just haven't tried it yet.

Did you try to go back into CWM and wipe everything again after the boot loops? That sometimes helps when it is boot looping after an install.

I'm Stock Again, Restart always sent me to fastboot with a failed flash error, I could back out of it to the pizza ROM each time however I don't want to depend on my phone booting incorrectly so I used RSD and I'm stock again, I'm going to give it another try tonight.
UPDATE...Reflashed everything started over and everything works PERFECT Yippie!!! I'm very pleased!!!!
Running AOSPizza and Loving it!

So what was your full procedure? I want to try this and try to install CM10 later.
From what I read, you installed the Photon Q CWM, installed Pizza through that, got boot loops, flashed back to stock, then installed Pizza again?

Fastboot was kicking errors and was boot looping into fastboot with firmware flash fail, I found however I could start into AOSPizza in DB mode (Safe Mode) , so I did that, charged up the phone 100% then used RSDLite and Reflashed Stock current firmware, it however does not re-lock the bootloader as some have mentioned might be the case in other post's, from there I started up the phone,turned on usb debug, used "motochopper" to root it, then installed Rom Manager from the market, flashed clockwork to device with the Photo Q CWM , copied AOSPixxaV1.zip ( The ROM ) and GappizzaV1.zip to the Phones internal storage not on the external SD memory card, from there went to clockwork mod on my atrix opened up the program and selected to reboot into recovery, went to the mounts and storage then select Mount System then go back then install zip from sd card then choose zip from sd card, then scroll to your rom and select it and it will flash when its complete you will go back and go to reboot system now, it will ask you if you want to bypass stock recovery on boot select it and your phone will reboot into AOSPizza......Have Fun!
Hey! I got big problem, I can't open the recovery mode after updating my CyanogenMod to the latest RC4 version. After that i flashed Semaphore 2.9.25 kernel, and today I can't open recovery anymore After using Vol Up+Home+Power i see semaphore boot animation freezes for like 20 sec, then CM starts.
So what should I do to get into recovery mode again? I don't know if installing nightly updates will work (recovery doesn't work so how it will be updated), maybe using SGS Kernel Flasher will help?
Please help me solve my problem
Flash a rom with Odin
Go back to stock, try upgrade to CM10.1 again.
Alternatively if you want to learn how to use it you could try using ADB to force recovery. There are guides somewhere in these forums. But going back to stock would probably be easier...

Today I accidentally dropped my phone, and after back to home... I tried to open recovery CMW again - and it surprisingly worked so I was able to update my kernel :laugh:
But thank you for future solutions, I'd further try to flash only kernel via Odin
