CM7 not booting

I installed the CM7 17 build the day it was released, everything was working fine.
Last night I had downloaded a bunch of apps and shut it down.
Now when I turn it on it is stuck at the 'Touch The Future of Reading' screen.
Any ideas?
I have powered it off 3 times and let is sit for 10 minutes... nothing.

Hopefully you have clockwork mod installed. Something may have been corupted, possibly your boot partition. Either restore a backup via clockwork mod, or reinstall CM7 via bootable micro SD-card.

I booted into CWM, formatted the cache partition, then installed build 19.
Everything seems to be working.
Bluetooth turns on now, it did not before.
All of my apps are still installed.
For future reference, when updating to newer releases, do you only need to format the cache then install the latest zip?

after you flash the zip, go into the advanced menu and clear delvik-cache. CWM may freeze, it's not a problem just hold down pwr button untill it turns off. The wipe of the delvik-cache does go through. Also the first boot after wiping devik takes a long time, don't worry.

Ok I did not do that, should I go back and do that?
So for anyone else reading.
To update from say build 17 to 19 or 20... as they are released
Boot into CW
Format the cache
Flash the zip
wipe delvik-cahce

I would go back and clear delvik to prevent any furture complications. Especially if you flash a new kernel (i.e. the OC kernel).

Turned it on this morning and it as stuck again.
Booted into CWR, formatted cache and wiped dalvik. ... Nothing

I got it after formatting cache then wiping cache.
I don't know why it is doing this...
Could it have anything to do with OC to 925?
I am not using setcpu just the cyan settings

[Q] FROYOMOD 2.6 - Milestone stuck at boot animation

Hi,
Android noob here-
I need help. I had cyanogen 6 mod and I wanted to try Froyomod. I booted into recovery applied FroyoMod 2.6.0 update. I did clear cache and partition (I didn't clear data). Now when I boot the phone I can see the M logo and froyomod boot animation, but thats where it stops. I tried to start the phone on recovery (power button+camera/power button+X key) but it doesn't work.
My phone is bricked. Is there a way to unbrick it?
Thank you!!

I had a bootloop the first time that I flashed FroyoMod. I cleared all of my data, wipe dalvik, but forgot the cache partition. If it still bootloops, I would just take the battery out, put it back in and try and boot into recovery again. Try clearing the data(if you have a backup) and the dalvik and cache partitions, flash FroyoMod, then clear cache and dalvik again before rebooting again.

Did you try without SD card??

Not wiping data when changing ROM can give boot problems. What is really unusual is that you can't go into OpenRecovery anymore. What do you mean with "it doesn't work?".

tried that many times but still stuck at samsung logo

any other suggestions?

Have Same Problem Brother
mee too got same problem any help would be appreciated..!

How long did you wait. I found that after installing a new rom or factory wipe that it would take up to 5 minutes to boot. It would just sit at the samsung logo with a pulsing glow for ages.
Maybe you just need to give it more time?
What tools and packages did you use?

Wipe cache, do a factory reset, wipe dalvik cache. If still stuck, it looks like a bad flash/kernel problem. Try flashing it again.

Finally succeed
It's work for me, I simply entered my galaxy S3 into recovery, make factory reset, wipe chache and then reboot and my S3 finally boot normally. Thank You all.

Make my thorough wipe as below when flashing a new ROM:
1) Wipe data
2) Wipe cache
3) Wipe dalvik cache
4) Format /system & /preload
5) Format internal sdcard (make sure you save anything you need before)
6) Flash ROM
7) Wipe cache again
8) Wipe dalvik cache again
9) Reboot
This way you ensure you flash your new ROM in a completely clean environment. Then when booting the new ROM, wait some time before saying it's stuck at the boot logo. As people already said, sometimes it takes a long time to display the setup screen (but should be less than 8 minutes in any case). I'm assuming you have CWM to do this; if you don't, try the equivalent in the stock recovery (but it doesn't have all these options), poweroff, boot in download mode, then flash using Odin.
ATTENTION: make sure you make the wipes using a brick-free kernel! Search the forums if you don't know what it is. If you don't, you may brick your phone. You should flash a brick-free kernel before anything, without any wipes (it can be done through Odin if you download a safe kernel in this format); then you are ready to go with the wipes and flashing a new ROM.

my j500h keeps on restarting just after displaying samsung logo. i have tried nearly everything but seem to be stuck on the same bootloop. any idea am so stressed up.

Can't access Recovery and can't boot to android.

I undusted my N1 to sell it and it was working before. I'm on BlackRose with stock values. Even if I flash any recovery, I'm still stuck at X. I can't boot to android or anything. Updated to original RUU (PASSIMG) but doesn't change anything. Wiped cache/userdata from fastboot too...
PLease help me.
Thanks

The battery has been left removed from the phone for few minutes while searching for a fix to my problem then I tried again to boot to recovery and it did... Just did factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and battery stats.
Will update if end with something working.

How long did you let to boot logo spin? It can take a while before it gets past that the first time you run it.
Have you wiped cache and dalvik cache? Those usually fix the issue. You could also try fixing permissions to see if that helps too.
When you say you wiped in android recovery, do you mean safestrap?

if I'm right, you should wipe in the custom recovery instead of stock recovery.
