HELP: Phone shuts off on boot screen - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my moto x today, updated it right away to lollipop, then went to work unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and installing TWRP.
All worked great, and then i went into TWRP to do a factory reset so that I could have the setup wizard when i turned my phone back on to set it up.
well after I did a factory wipe in TWRP (now i am thinking maybe i also checked to wipe system as well, but im not positive).
after the factory reset my device boots to the boot screen, and stops on the blue m logo at the end.
So i flashed the stock kitkat images using mfastboot, and it boots to the boot screen and then shuts off, doesnt even hang at the end anymore.
What are my options/ what the hell did i do?

[Q] Phone stuck on boot animation

HI, im sort of a noob at this but i have been using the Custonexus rom for a cuple of days now and it have been running very good But yesterday when i tried to unlock the phone, the lockscreen didn't show up, the backlit buttons turned on as usual.
I turned off the phone, and did a factory reset. The phone booted up as normal with no problems. When i was up and running again, i booted into recovery to flash back to the stock rom from my backup just to be sure it didn't happened again. I did a factory reset and navigated to the backups but the backup was gone I rebooted the phone but it got stuck on the CN boot screen. What should i do? i have tried many times to reboot it but it always get stuck on the boot animation.
Install original lg kdz and redo everything.
You have to install the Stock (original) Firmware. Here is a HowTo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723

[XT1053] Updated Boot Animation causing Boot Loop

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.

softbricked 6? stuck at boot animation

Was running stock 6.0.1 in unlocked mode, and applied the 7.0 OTA Tuesday AM. Phone booted fine, with the exception that the 6.0.1 boot animation displaying. Phone booted into 7.0, so whatever. worked great for 2 days, when i woke up yesterday screen wouldn't turn on, so hold the the power button and re-start. Phone got to boot animation and stayed there for an hour until i shut it off, never got to the pattern unlock screen. I've tried wiping it, factory resetting it, installing TWRP to wipe and install, nothing, still stuck at the boot animation, no matter how long i let it sit. I've tried flashing other roms, with the same results. I can get into bootloader and recovery without issue, and can flash without errors (that i'm aware of) but always have the same result. Any thoughts? Or am i going phone shopping today?

[Q] Possible partition corruption?

Here's the deal, I have a sprout8 device (the Indonesian Nexian Journey One) running stock 6.0 with some xposed mods installed on it. Suddenly the device shuts down and when I try to boot it up it only goes halfway through the bootanimation when it shuts down again. I wasn't too worried as I thought it was just a conflicting system issue and I also thought it was time to re-flash fresh stock 6.0 to freshen up my phone anyway. So I went ahead and did it.
Here's where the problems start to show up, I had a hard time booting to recovery through the power + volume up combination. The phone suddenly shuts down on its own as it boots up. I tried it a few times and finally got to recovery. After that, as I flashed stock 6.0 the phone shut down again. I thought it was an issue with my recovery so I tried wiping everything through fastboot and re-flashed recovery through fastboot aswell. From there I tried again to flash stock 6.0 through recovery and again, the phone shut down. I tried a different ROM thinking it was a ROM issue but still got the same results.
After hours of trying to flash a ROM through recovery (retrying over and over as it suddenly shut down while flashing), I finally got a ROM installed. Then I rebooted my phone, but again it freezes halfway through the bootanimation (literally freezing the bootanimation) and refused to do anything. I took off the battery and booted up the phone countless tries trying to get it to boot up. When it finally booted up, I filled in all the Google startup credentials and finally got started on a fresh stock 6.0. However, I tried to restore my previous application data through Android's application recovery on startup but everytime the device installs a new application it would freeze up and shut down. This happened countless times. Then the phone, once again, shut down and could not start the ROM. It would freeze up on the bootanimation.
Then things started to get weird, when the phone turns on it should show the "Nexian" logo in all its glory before going to bootanimation. But here the screen gets all distorted and shows these weird horizontal (and sometimes vertical) lines. Nothing's wrong with my phone screen so I assume it is a system error. From here on, the phone refused to boot. It just shows the Nexian logo and restarts over and over. The same thing happens even after I re-flashed both my recovery and ROM. I even tried using SP Flash Tool to re-flash stock but still the same results.
Now, the device wouldn't even turn on. But when I connect it using USB to a Windows computer, it still gets detected through device manager as an ordinary MediaTek device.
I'm assuming now that it may be a problem with the /system parition where we install our ROMs in. The partition may be (partially) corrupt. Seeing as the device could still boot the ROM a few hours ago but freezing upon updates to the stated partition.
If you guys have any other ideas/solutions I'm all ears.

HP Touchpad stuck on boot screen (CM11)

Today I had to reboot my device and now my touchpad is stuck on the boot screen (the spinning logo). I used Clockworkmod to clear the cache and dalvik cache, but it doesn't seem to have done anything?
Sometimes I'll see the Android is Updating/Optimizing apps screen, but it'll stop and go back to the spinning logo boot screen.
If I leave it running for a long time, will it boot into the system? Is there anything I can do to recover the system? I'd like to avoid deleting everything if I can.
Edit: after 10 minutes or so it booted into the system but then it immediately restarted and went back to the spinning logo again...
Thanks.
A bit of an update. I restored an old backup I happened to have and it worked... up until the tablet started to update itself. At some point, it rebooted and was stuck on the boot screen again, so I am assuming that some update is causing the problem.
Is this fixable or should I just move to a different ROM at this point?
