Hello,
Here is my problem, wanting to flash a theme on my Xperia Z, I had to perform a cache cleaning, this one was unusually long (~5minutes), so I brutally shut down the phone via power + volume up.
I wasn't aware of:
Phone hangs when cleaning cache?
Just leave it for a few minutes, it's needs some time to clean cache

Unfortunately it is now impossible for me to get back to the recovery (LED turns green but does not change to purple while holding volume up).
I already tried:
- Reinstall CWM recovery
- Install TWRP recovery hoping "overwrite" CWM (does not work either)
- Uninstall TWRP recovery
- Use the "reboot in recovery" option via clockworkmod and application TWRP (just reboot the phone normally)
edit:
- I now tried to do a factory reset but it's not working, nothing happen when I click "erase all data", can't tell if it's related though...
Having no other ideas I think it would be best to totally remove CWM recovery (via adb ?) and then reinstall it "properly"
Thanks
Update: Just tried to do a factory reset via settings but I doesn't work, nothing happen when I click "erase all data", can't tell if it's related though. Is there any other way to do a factory reset so I can go back to normal ?
Thanks

Have you tried to run the installer again? Hickups like this can happen.

Hold it under a lamp and repeat your hard-reset method or plug it into your PC and type
Code:
adb reboot recovery
and then re-attempt the flash

Everything is ok. Thanks! But what's with the lamp?
Think it needs proximity sensors triggered as well.. that's why.

I wanted to sell my nexus 6 so I decided to flash to stock rom. Everything seemed perfect until I realized I needed to wipe my data. I restarted in custom recovery and by mistake wiped all data. After that my phone will turn black/dark after booting into the home screen. I reinstalled the stock rom but same results. Even in safe mode. I know my phone is one because I can see the power menu after pressing the power button. Can anyone please help?

Wave I have a lg l90, as reported here:
Http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/help/help-to-install-cyanogenmod-lg-l90-t3489414
I installed cm13 with gapps successfully ...
I've been using it normally since then...
But in an attempt to run the "es file explorer" in root mode, I installed the supersu from the play store. I opened it, and he asked to restart by TWRP.
It restarted, opened the twrp... And after restarting, the CM will be booting forever.
Can someone help me?

Try wiping Dalvik and cache..
To get into twrp Turn off phone then Turn on with power button and pressing volume down button.. when lg logo appears release both buttons and press again both until a white screen appears. Use volume keys and power key to select yes.
If wiping cache and Dalvik dont work probably u have to flash cm again.

Do the steps above.. when it asks for factory reset choose yes. It will take you to twrp recovery instead factory reset your phone

really?
Really, I have no problem unbrick/formatting my cell phone... In losing data, information, etc.
This time, I would just like to save some pictures of my son that are in this device.
So by pressing "yes" to that question, it will not erase the data, but call the twrp?

Not sure if it was the new UI or Android 9 but has anybody else noticed that the start up seems to take ages? Certainly longer than previously?

I experienced the same issue as you after pie upgrade. However sorted it by wiping the cache. Now it's back to normal. Give it a try.

Great thanks for the speedy reply. I'll just google wiping the cache and let you know if it worked

It's very simple. Turn off ur Note 9. Once it's off wait for 10 secs. Then press the volume up + Bixby + power button together. Once you see the Samsung logo let go off the keys. Now you select wipe cache partition with volume up and down keys. Press power button to confirm. Once done select reboot now. That's it.

If wiping the Cache Partition doesn't work. Back up your device and perform a hard factory reset. That should resolve your software issues.
