I'm on 5.1.1 and this has not happened before. I booted into the Recovery mode and tried to wipe the cache partition, but as soon as I wiped the cache partition, the phone went into a mode with "No command" on the screen. I'm not able to reboot the phone using any of the reboot methods. Does anyone know what I can do to get resolve this issue or is there a way to reboot the phone somehow through the PC?
Resolved.

When i try to flash a stock firmware particularly XXKPK after i see the PASS i disconnect the usb cable and wait for phone to start but it keep restarting to samsung animastion.
I am now waiting for 10 minutes and it is just the same. I followed the exact procedures from this article http://droidangel.blogspot.com/2011/08/samsung-galaxy-mini-s5570xxkpk-android.html
But i can't get to Region selection screen. First i had to do something else to pass the boot loop. I don't remember what i did before but i guess i did a wipe system and cache from recovery and after that i could went inside.
Is this normal or should i pass boot loop after flashing without wiping cache and system...
its normal..
But in the guide writer only mentioned about wiping the cache. And he/she said it after selecting the regional settings. Thats why i got confused.
after flashing, pull out the battery,
put it in again,
turn on into recovery mode,
wipe cache and system/data,
reboot now.
if still bootloop,
try flashing again.

Usually it will bootloop maximum 3 times. Try wipe your data,cache and dalvic first before you flash

I did experienced same problem with this case, I just reflash the firmware and it worked like a charm.
Hey guys.
Last night i got the sudden urge to load paranoid android on my phone. i downloaded cwm and advanced restarted the phone. then instead of booting cwm and clearing the cache and datvic cache and wiping the phone, i wiped the phone and cache through the standard android loader. i restarted and tried to get back into cwm but everytime i moved up or down it would restart the menu. after rebooting and android stock reinstalled itself, i read somewhere about typing 'su' and some binary type chatacters in some comand shell app to fix the restarting menu. after all of this i tried to restart right after but the phone wont switch on.
My question before i take the phone to samsung is, is there a way to repair this myself? Is there a program for windows that can force my phone to boot using the power from the usb port? Is there another combination of buttons to try resetting the phone without it first needing to go into advanced recovery?
Okay more than one question. thanks in advance.

Use Odin to get back to Factory Software and then You have to do the Root process again.
Go to dr.Ketan's thread on how to install stock firmware using ODIN. The thread is in the Original Android Development forum. Go to the download mode (volume down+home +power) and download the stock firmware and flash it using ODIN.
Okay, so I am having a lot of trouble with a bootloop for seemingly no reason. I got two nexus 6'es, and i unlocked, rooted, and flashed TWRP on mine, no problem at all.
So onto my gf's, I did fastboot oem unlock, and then i went to reboot-bootloader, but i accidentally bumped the power button, which was on "Start". It launched a weird loading style screen - the green android standing up with a blue ball spinning around (NOT the stock recovery, android laying down with chest open) , and i couldn't do anything. eventually, when i hit the volume up button, it said "Formatting /data..." but it never completed.
The only thing I could do was unplug it from my computer (mac) and put it in fastboot mode again. I tried flashing all the shamu factory images, and then rebooted again. Same thing. Now, i re-locked and then unlocked the phone again. Now it's just looping at the red, blue, green and yellow circles for over ten minutes now. What the heck can i do to fix this? I can in no way get it to boot to the lock screen, but fastboot is working fine and it recognizes the device
Edit: Got into TWRP by writing it over stock recovery. Tried to factory reset in TWRP and got the following errors:
E: Unable to mount /data
Unable to mount /cache
Unable to mount /storage
Wiping the cache should fix it.

I was trying to take picture but suddenly my phone restarted. Then after few sec it was not booting up. It was giving me blank screen, no boot animation was coming up. So now what should I do? I try to wipe/factory reset the phone but still phone was not booting up. It was still stuck on blank screen. Please help?
Device: nexus 4
I got stuck in a boot loop also. I had to reflash the factory image. See this link here. It's the best way to do it just follow the instructions you should be fine. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-fix-er...roid-5-0-factory-images-nexus-devices-1474865
Try to flash the unencrypted boot image, mine did the same thing when in first flashed TWRP to it and it. Then reflash the stock image and wipe the phone.
Hello everybody,
I am having severe trouble with my HTC one mini 2: After an update to TWRP 2.8.5.0 the phone gets stuck at the CM12 logo.
After I got the phone, I installed CM 12 with TWRP 2.7.1.0. Everything was working fine, besides the well known problem that TWRP freezes from time to time.
Yesterday I wanted to update to TWRP 2.8.5.0. I performed the recovery flash and everything seemed to work fine. Also I erased the cache. I used the following commands:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp-2.8.5.0.img
After that, I wanted to reboot my phone. Unfortunately, this did not work out at all. My phone does neither boot to CM12 nor to recovery. It does not react to the Power button. I can restart it by holding POWER + VOL UP but the phone gets stuck at the CM logo and will not move further. Also, I can not boot to recovery.
Also, the phone is not available via adb/fastboot. adb/fastboot does not show any attached devices. Adb/fastboot can only detect the phone, when the phone was running out of battery and is attached to the PC but not yet turned on. In this case, adb/fastboot detect the device, but mark it as "unauthorized" so that i can not connect to it.
I am kind of desperate. I hope somebody con help me with this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
braumeister

THX for your help.
Unfortunately I can not install another TWRP version as I can access my phone neither via adb nor via fastboot.
Both, "adb devices" as well as "fastboot devices" do not recognize my phone. Also I can not access recovery. I tried "POWER+VOL UP/DOWN" but it did not work.
Same problem
HEy guys,
like braumeister said... I have exactly the same problem.
Is anyone here able to help us? That would be great!
@fleischball
You are probably on a bootloop. A soft brick. It happens when you dirty flash ROMs.
The simplest solution is
- wipe dalvic cache/cache via your recovery
If this doesn't work
- wipe cache + dalvic cache + data + android secure.
- reflash your ROM
- again wipe dalvic cache + cache
- reboot
This method is called clean flash.
Hope this would be helpful for you.

Thanks, Hitman. But this wont work at first try because - like braumeister already described - we are not able to get into recovery or bootloader:

After you reboot with pwr+vol up you have to hold pwr+vol down exactly when the phone reboots to enter bootloader.

I recently unlocked and rooted my nexus 6, installed twrp for back up. Then I wiped before making a back up. No I have no os on phone. Is there a fix or am I screwed?
Try using fastboot to flash factory images
Just grab a factory image and flash it.
Remember wiping a device does just that. Wipes it clean
The thing is, I can boot into recovery, but my phone does not show up on my laptop. So I am not sure how to load a factory image. Thx in advance for all the help.
If it doesn't connect while in recovery, uninstall/reinstall drivers.

Boot in to recovery, choose reboot system, TWRP will say, no OS installed are you sure? answer yes / swipe, TWRP will ask/say your device is not rooted, do you want to root it? Swipe to confirm.
Reboot your phone, pressing power and volume down, choose recovery mode again, your phone should show up on your lappy.
If not, re-install drivers - adb/fastboot as mentioned before.
