Ok so i was changing my boot animation for my phone and i found one but it was too small for my phone. So i tried to change it through the app (boot animation). It failed and kept resetting to the default size. So i changed it manually through root explorer. I rebooted my phone and the screen went black, nothing. The system seemed to be find, me being able to still hold the power button to vibrate the phone and switch it off eventually.
So i decided to boot my phone into recovery (clockworkmod) and i hadnt made a back up already so i made one just then. It failed (i have really bad luck or something ) but the boot animation backup worked so i restored it and rebooted my phone. It stayed black but the samsung stock sound played. Im stuck now.
Any help would be apreciated.
I have s3 mini clockwork mod.

I have attempted to flash two different themes now to my wilfire but everytime I reboot after flashing it gets stuck on the boot animation until I get bored, remove the battery and restore my nandroid backup. I'm running Cyanogenmod 6.1 stable on my wildfire and both themes have been confirmed as compatible. Any thoghts on why this is happening?
after getting stuck on boot animation and pulling the battery, dont nandroid backup....try simply rebooting the phone again and see if it gets past it......same kinda thing happened to me recently and that worked
Thanks for the reply but still gets stuck on boot anim.
Woke up to my phone at a fully white screen. I shut it off, but every time i turend it on it would simply freeze at boot animation.
Figured it was time for a new rom anyway so flashed paranoid android and it worked. Rebooted and it froze during boot animation.
Tried Android Revolution, Cyanogen Mod... all jsut start booting then freeze during the animation (all different animations). Sometimes they'll freeze for a while, then the animation runs for a second, then freezes again. Never ending. Wiped the whole device, clean install. Not sure what could possibly be going on.
I still have access to recovery (twrp 2.7.1.1/adb/fastboot).
It's awesome timing as i just got a moto360 yesterday... anod now can't use it as my phone is dead!

you say you wiped did you ever format data ?
have you tried re-flashing the firmware
have you tried flashing stock recovery / factory reset from stock recovery ?
Last night I started messing with the S5, I used Odin to restore to stock, then took all the OTA updates all the way to the 4.4.4 one that came out recently and after that I debloated it and removed the att apps and such, everything was fine. I tried changing the boot animation but messed up somewhere along the way and it wouldn't show a boot animation at all but still booted and got to the main screen and functioned perfectly. I decided to start over and tried to use Odin to restore to stock 4.4.2 but after flashing the first screen comes on and says that it's custom and has the open lock symbol then shows a slow and laggy samsung boot animation before freezing at some point on the animation and the screen goes completely black but the blue LED light stays on and it does nothing after that. I have tried using Odin repeatedly and erasing everything through recovery and nothing works. Please, any help would be appreciated.
It has been fixed I believe, I flashed the G900A_OA1_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 and it works again.
Where did you get the .tar.md5 file? I think I just bricked myself out of recovery mode
I was able to root my ME572c without issue, installed Titanium backup, removed a bunch of Asus apps, and the device was working fine. I randomly decided to restart the tablet this morning, and now it is stuck at the Asus boot screen, and It is not even going through the boot animations (no boot loop). I'm not sure what i did to make this happen. I did use ROM manager to flash clockwork recovery, and I'm not sure if i flashed the correct version.
What can I do to fix this? I can't boot into recovery mode at all, nor turn off the device.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
I didn't know there was Clockwork recovery for this as I looked and couldn't find it. Do you have a link?
Hey guys,
I was using my phone today and decided to turn it off. I am currently on 5.1 and I am rooted on stock. When I turned it back on, I was kind of stuck on a boot loop but I can usually bypass this by holding down the power button until I feel a quick vibrate and then my phone starts doing the "Optimizing Apps...". However, it didn't do that this time so I decided to reboot my phone into recovery, wipe the cache and dalvik and restart. Again, stuck on the boot animation screen. So I just let it run its course and then all of a sudden I see my phone go to the home screen but my launcher is reset and I am running out of cache space. I decide to connect my phone to my computer and backup some files. As I backup the last of my DCIM folder, my phone reboots and all of a sudden I have the new Motorola boot animation with the stitching I guess. But then I'm stuck at the bootloop again.
Anyone else experience this or know how I can fix this? I reaaallly don't want to factory reset.
I recently did a reset via settings on a gen 1. No change in boot animation. I then did a reset via stock recovery and got the new animation. I then did another reset via settings and during the first boot it had the old animation but subsequent boots have the new animation.
