So, I've been using SweetROM v7 for quite sometime now and it never showed any problem until now.
I switched off my phone to change my SIM (Yes, it was working perfectly) and then switched it back on but now it just goes upto the Samsung logo and reboots again.
I thought it might be stuck in a bootloop (Sorry if this was a wrong thought, I'm still a noob) so I flashed the Jellybean Bootloader but with no success.
Please get me through this problem. I don't have any other phone and I kind of need it urgently.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Wipe data in recovery and reboot once, may work out. Though this will lose all the non backed up data.
Will I lose the images and the files which I had in My Files too??
No no, you won't lose the images and files.
have you made a back up copy of sweetROM after you flashed it? If you did, you can always try to run that back up and that could solve your problem.

I would start with wiping dalvik cache in cwm. Sometimes this can get you out of a bootloop. And you won't loose any data.

Hi guys. Yesterday night I was installing a few new apps but the seemed to be stuck installing forever. So I decided to reboot. However, after the reboot, it never goes past the second boot screen.
I know I can just flash to another rom but is there a way to save my data in the instance? I can still get into recovery mode if that helps. Thanks
I've read you can hook up to your pc and mount your sdcard from cwm. Never tried it but if it works you can save your data that way then maybe a master clear/cache or dalvik wipe will help.

You can mount USB in recovery and get all your stuff off of your SD that way. You can also nandroid your current ROM in CWM and re-flash it, then restore from backup. As far as saving texts and all that, Idk if you can, but I'm sure someone else does.
Also, you could try clearing dalvik, cache, and then running the kernel cleaning script. It's gotten me out of a few binds before. It might help you to where you wouldn't have to flash again.
My csl spice mi410 Freezes on boot up after showing the home screen and preparing the sdcard freezes and reboots again and again and taking the
battery out and starting a dozen times will let
the phone boot up.
I'm running on rc2from tjstyles with a 16gig transcend sdcard.
please any idea what's going on or what i should do.

hi
use SUT and flash the stock rom this should solve ur problem for now
atleast ur phone will be working
Try wiping data/Dalvik cache, if that doesn't work then try doing a factory reset... Do it using the CWM recovery. I think this should solve your problem. I faced a similar problem and solved it using this process.

the phone eventually comes on after a dozen or so reboot taking out the battery and placing it back but when i restart again some times it does the same thing, i will have to repeat the process again removing the battery and placing it back.
just wonna know what wrong.

i would say it's a bad flash, ie the flashing of ROM process was not done properly, files corrupt or something happened.
try what the other people suggested, if all else fails I think you should have a CWM/Nandroid backup to restore to right?

yea thanks eventually works after a lot restarts with the memory card . i tried taking out the memory card and it works fine but i don't think there is something wrong with the memory card as it works well with my galaxy 7.7 tab.is there a memory Card fix i need to apply or do i need to install an sdcard booster or something. please help.
nb: and i also notice that when i put my Samsung original 2gig sdcard, the phone works flawlessly with out a hitch but when i try anything higher that's when i have this prob.

hello
i had clean installed the JB rom xxlsa on my note
my battery died while i was playing a game so i put the phone on charging
now when i turned it on its not starting
what shud i do
i booted into recovery and tried to clear cache and dalvik cache also reinstalled the rom from memorycard but still the same
can anyone guide me
Reinstall like the 1st time, do all wipes + formats then flash.
Is the phone looping ? Meaning on the glowing samsung logo, It vibrates then restarts the animation over and over again ?
Also, how long has it been like this ? Have you left the phone to charge for around 30mins before trying to power on ?
Im certain its nothing serious as you can still get into recovery and its still attempting to boot, So maybe its ROM / Kernel related.
EDIT: I just noticed you said its stuck on the Galaxy Note screen, not the boot animation... Have you by any chance just flashed philz kernel ? I had this issue the other day and I could only get it to boot by doing a full reset
BUT....... If recovery is working, Make a nandroid backup, reset the phone, then restore the apps from the nandroid using titanium backup. That way you wont lose any apps that you have installed since your last backup.

Well your contacts will be backed up with google but im pretty sure a nandroid will back them up too, including sms's
Titanium will only restore apps from a nandroid, if you want to restore other things, try this app
What is disturbing is this just happened to me as well. My battery also ran down while using an xxLSA based ROM and won't boot past the "Samsung Galaxy Note" logo. Fully charging my phone so I can do a reinstall.
edit: Just confirming that Factory Reset fixes the problem. All my data is backed up so I went for it.

yes factory reset solved the problem for me

Just to make another confirmation: This happened to me running an lsa based rom also.
Same here. LSA based Rom. Happened 2nd time already. So annoying.

Me too. I tried at least 4 times to get v5 installed. It works fine until I try to install any app such as Titanium. Then it gets stuck at the first Samsung .. screen on the next reboot.
It's really p****ng me off. There must be a hell of a bug in this ROM.
This is the result of hurry. Let the developer test the firmware first. Not everything is flashable let the devs make a sacrifice first then on his recommendation install the FW

I rebooted my phone to install a font and now it continues to turn on (HTC logo) and then restart. Tried to get into recovery and it just exits...
I had my phone off at night and turned it on - read a few text messages - and went to replace the ****ty font I installed yesterday.
Just looping.
Any help?
Can't even turn it off lol - I would need to go into bootloader and click power down. It is odd - I didn't do anything and it started up perfectly before 5 minutes I did the fonts.
flash the boot and/or recovery?

I flashed the recovery with CWM and installed Android Revolution HD 6.1
I was just wondering if it was safe to re-flash the recovery again to see if it would work. I don't want to screw up this phone lol.
EDIT: Got it. Reflashed the recovery and had to reflash the ROM.
I don't know why a simple font change would screw ALL of that up. I don't want to keep flashing this ROM lol it has been about 4 times now.

You need to reflash what ever was on it. Hopefully you made a backup if not and were on stock find the correct nandroid back or RUU for your phone and flash that. You can also try doing a factory reset that may bring it back.
agreed...try to re-flash everything to stock than go from there to find what is causing the problem.
So I flashed but now my phone just boots to Android Screen - I am a Novice in this area - how can I restore my phone to factory or getting back to working condition

Likely your flash was interrupted. Try flashing again and make sure the progress gets all the way through. My last time took the attempts to get a clean flash. Had to keep it in the foreground and not do anything else on my computer.

Also, make sure you have the lastest mofo (version 0.0.2).
So I tried to flash the hotspot rooted image also the just plain rooted image. Which image do you suggest I use? Yes my first flash got interrupted. So are you saying that since I get to the white android screen that's a good sign?

Shouldn't matter but I'd stick with the original root image. Android logo isn't a good sign you are just stuck in a bootloop. If you can't get the regular rooted image flashed then you can go here for rsd plus stock, but I'd only do that as last resort since good chance of loosing all your data - http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/quark-stock-firmware-moto-maxx-droid-t3063470
If it still won't flash the root image, you might want to hit the Mofo Thread and ask for help since a few others are having similar issues of not being able to get 100% through a flash - http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/mofo-root-turbo-t3064404. They seemed to have identified issues if you installed more then one usb driver and/or are using a usb 3.0 port.
All good now - lost data but wiped phone then flashed - it work finally
