I recently rooted my Lg Nexus 4 on android 5.1.1 I installed the xposed framework and got myself a few mods and it was all working fine. Then I installed Xhalofloatingwindow not knowing there was a different version for lollipop, and when I activated and rebooted my phone for the mod to take place a message saying system ui failure the message wouldn't go away so I rebooted my phone, and now its in a boot loop. I have entered CWM and wiped dalvik cache, wipe cache, wipe memory, and factory data rested and tried rebooting but nothing works. So I am letting my phone die and then going to plug it in charge and see how it goes. Any help? Still stuck in the bootloop. Please let me know of there is anything to fix this with. I did not make a nandroid backup unfortunately

My phone will currently not boot bast the CyanogenMod boot screen.
I flashed my phone several months ago to CM10.1 It was the update that patched the "masterkey" bug. I have been using it daily since then with no problems.
Today, I turn my phone on, and it just hangs at the boot animation.
There were no significant changes since the last time it was powered on. I think I installed McPixel from the humblebundle, and uninstalled a game from the playstore called Krog. No setting changes of any significance.
I've tried booting into safestrape and deleting both the cache and the dalvik cache, neither has helped. My stock rom still loads just fine, but i had factory reset it quite a while ago. I do have a backup of the rom from about 40 days ago i can try restoring, but i would love a more nondestructive way to fix this.
Try booting into safestrap, wiping system, cache, and dalvik, then reinstall the ROM and gapps.

0.o wouldn't that be a LOT more destructive than just restoring the old backup?

Nope. You are not wiping data so all your apps, setting, etc will still be there.
the data itself will remain if you just wipe the system, cache and dalvik cache but be sure to reinstall the latest stable build of CM and gapps for it

ah gotcha gotcha...
unfortunately it didn't work.
for troubleshooting's sake, i went ahead and made a backup of the rom in it's non-working state.
i restored my old backup, it boots just fine.
restored borked backup (tested it, still won't boot), wiped cache/dcache, wiped system, installed cm-10.2-20130821-NIGHTLY-maserati.zip and gapps 20130812, wiped cache/dcache again for good measure, then reboot and waited 10 minutes, still won't pass boot logo.
so i figure someting's wrong with Data right? so i rebooted to safestrap and did a factory restore, then wiped cache/dcache, and still won't boot.
so now i'm going at it the opposite direction. restoring the working backup, restoring just the data from the nonworking backup, then upgrading CM/Gapps
rebooting.. and....
blank screen with full backlight. not so much as a CM logo.
i guess for now i am going to restore back to the old backup, update the rom, and go about reconfiguring, unless anyone has any more suggestions?

Yeah, definitely sounds like something in /Data. Only other possible option I can think of would be to use Titanium Backup. It has an option to "Extract from Nandroid backup". It's under the "SPECIAL BACKUP/RESTORE" options. I've never used that option before so I have no idea how or if it would work but might be worth a shot.

wonderful idea, unfortunately TB crashes when i point it at either backup.
buuut i did find Nandroid Manager * ROOT which looks like it might be working.
if you really wanna see if it is the data or not have you tried to
flash 10.2 or whatever you started out with... then restore -just-
the data to the freshly flash system and then do a wipe of all
said caches... I do that sometimes to get a fresh start on my
os itself.. works pretty well. Just do not restore the cache just
the data part. Or restore with MD5 checking... if it doesn't check
out then you know for a fact that the data partition in that specific
nandroid isn't any good :/
After restoring a backup of cm10.1 the boot animation took longer than normal and then froze. So I tried doing a clean intall of cm10.1.2 and the phone doesn't pass from the boot animation. I've already tried factory resetting, wiping dalvik/cache, flashing boot.img of cm10.1.2 through fastboot after flashing cm10.1.2.zip ... nothing works, always the same result... and if I flash some other cm compatible kernel over the rom, when I reboot the phone doesn't pass the LG logo... So I'm out of ideas for now, and that's why I'm coming here to see if anyone has any other idea of how to revive my (soft) bricked phone...
Thank you for your time
PS - All this happened after trying to flash this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2413135 and getting stuck at the LG logo...
PS2 - Okay, it seems that the problem is caused by the fact that I installed cm10.2 and then reverted back to cm10.1... But I have done factory resets, have wiped cache, data, dalvik, and system, all to no good... Don't know where to go from here... Btw, by flashing cm10.2 I can get to the "Android is upgrading - Starting apps" but then it gets stuck in this part and goes no further...

Hey guys sorry if this has already been posted. I tried to search through the other threads but couldn't find anything with my exact problem. I am a noob when it comes to this stuff so please bear with me. I was trying to reinstall my ROM when I made the dumb mistake to format system, When I was in recovery I wiped data/factory reset, wiped the cache partition, wiped Dalvik cache, and then for some reason went to format system. After I did that and went to reboot the phone it asked me to fix root. I did this and it started the CWM bootloop. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to fix it?
exitrecovery.zip will stop the boot loop.

Also try this...
Pull battery..
Count to 10.
Replace battery.
Press and hold Volume Down and power until the Factory Reset screen comes up..
Hit the power button twice, once to start and the second to confirm.
This should put you into your recovery mode... There you should be able to install the ROM again..
At least this is what has always worked for me...
Hello Everybody, My phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 and I have an issue.I am the one who is changing rom constantly.I was using the rom named ''Xperiance-Ace-v4_Sky_Walker_Studios'' for a long time.Lately i loaded another rom, 2 hours after i used, The phone was closed by itself, I tried open phone again but it stayed at boot animation screen.After that, I thought that rom is spoilt, I tried other roms but they stayed at boot animation screen as well.I tried all of roms that i have but result was same.I thought that i should try the rom which i was using before all those problems started.So i flashed Xperiance-Ace-v4_Sky_Walker_Studios Rom.Bizarre but it worked.When it opened i have faced with some pop-up ''android upgrading 0/70'' when it finished (70/70) i was at homescreen and all of my apps that i downloaded when i was using this rom at old days was there.It was so weird, And all aplications started to stop itselves and i even havent touched any of them. Like ''Unfortunately Whatsapp has stopped'' ''Unfortunately contacts has stopped'' ''Unfortunately facebook has stopped'' finally they all stoped working and i tried open applications, No application opened even contacts.
Present state: Only one rom is working, Others staying at boot animation screen and the rom which is working actually not working, Only phone is opening, No application working
What is the Problem? What Should i do? I am waiting your answers, THANKS.

Are you do a full wipe, before flashing another custom rom?
I did Wipe data factory reset, Wipe cache partition, Advanced>Wipe Dalvik cache

I suggest you install the stock rom using odin. It seems you have some corrupted files. Before flashing the stock rom, do Format Data/ Factory Reset, Format Cache Partitions, Mount & Storage> Format /system, Wipe Dalvik Cache and Wipe Battery Stats. Once you have flashed the stock rom, go to recovery mod and do Wipe Data/ Factory Reset and Wipe Cache Partition (otherwise bootloop might occur). After that install root and CWM from the recovery mod. Now you can install any other custom rom without any problem. Do post your results. Hope I Helped

Uninstall kies, and then download driver for galaxy ace.
Maybe, there is something wrong with your recovery, what recovery do you use?

And, try redownload, and flash that rom again. Maybe, it's corrupted.
i unistalled and nothing happened.
And there is no problem about driver because pc is recognizing the phone which means it's was already updated.
ClockworkMod Recovery version is v4.0.0.9
And i flashed many times

Try installing CWM 5 from the recovery mod. CWM 5 is much more stable than CWM 4. Once you have installed CWM 5, do Format Data/ Factory Reset, Format Cache Partitions, Mount & Storage> Format /system, Wipe Dalvik Cache and Wipe Battery Stats. Then try to flash any working rom with it. Here is the link,
CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830

i did all of the things that you said but result is same

Yes im sure i do all of them always
I'm running LP. After flashing the zip, it boots (after doing the "Android is upgrading" thing), but then if you shut it down/reboot it bootloops. If I wipe cache through recovery, it boots fine again (after doing the "upgrading" thing once again) and works fine till the next shutdown/reboot.
It doesnt work yet, there is no fix either..
Xposed for lollipop is still an alpha version and should not really be used

Bump
If it is any comfort, I have same issue - and yeah, read in other threads some people it is working perfectly.
Out of desperation I even tried factory-reset but still ended up needing to wipe cache/ Dalvik cache like you.
Hopefully, the Dev will soon release a working-for-all version.
For anyone who has the same issue (and is running on the stock ROM): A factory reset through TWRP did not fix the problem for me. I had to reflash the ROM.

you can just manually uninstall xposed, no need to wipe or reflash anything
Installing XPosed worked fine, the problem was the module installer. Even after removing the installer, the device still was looped. Another explanation could be that I was too dump to remove the installer. For anyone else having the problem, you may post how to remove the installer after being in a boot loop.
I managed to get Xposed to work - got rid of the infernal boot loop issue:
Came from rooted KK 5.77
Flashed pre-rooted Lollipop with R/W enabled, based on CE1
Ran 'Byeselinux' for recovery
Flashed 'Xposed.zip'
Installed 'Xposed alpha2'
Above resulting in the boot loop.
Flashed the 3 files directly on top of my setup, wipe cache/ Dalvik cache & reboot as suggested in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/lp-mini-deodex-t3076490
Tested by d/l-ing app from Playstore, installed Amplify from Xposed (had already Lolistat, Xperia/AOSP NavBar & Fix Lollipop Memory Leak running/installed), 5 reboots and all is ok.
