[Q] I need help! my phone is stuck on the boot screen. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay so my phone is stuck on the boot screen, I don't know what to do.
I tried flashing a ROM today but when I tried rebooting it, it got stuck on the boot screen.
Can someone help me please?

I think it is soft brick. 2 type of soft bricked I faced.
-Boot loop at M logo : using CWM - wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache, wipe user data/ factory reset, reflash your selected ROM.
-flashing red notification LED, try this link

replace hxxp in the beginning of link with http. Sorry, I can't post link since I am n00b.

Okay I'll try those two methods out, hopefully they work... thanks.
But wait, I have romracer's recovery menu, does that make a difference?

remember to wipe right before u flash a custom rom. number one reason why ppl get bootloops

[Q] DroidX stuck in Boot Loop after Liberty Flashing

I was flashing Liberty Gingerbread to my Droid X with ClockWorkMod Recovery, I Wipe data/Factory Reset and Wipe Cache, but, when it rebooted, it get stuck in the Yellow Hand Boot Logo.
I don't know what to do, I've tried everything, pulling off the battery, Stock Recovery Factory Reset and volume down button and power button, so if you can help me will be great.
Have u tried reflashing the rom. It happens to me sometimes so i just reflash the rom and it starts to work.

About the thing of reflashing, how do you do it? and how i do it if i cannot enter to any kind of recovery exept the stock recovey which haves only four options:
-Reboot Phone (It reboots but gets into de Boot Loop again)
-Install: update.zip (I've tried it with the same rom and others and nothing)
-Wipe data/factory reset (does not work)
-Clear cache (does not work)
What i mean is that i cannot enter to ClockWorkMod Recovery so i cannot install a new rom.
I've heard about the Bootloader and SBF's or something like that but i don't know if it is safe or if it could work

Stuck on unlock screen

Hi guys I received a Refurbed phone today and unlocked my phone. I have tried both Tenfars and the RomManager version of recovery on my phone. When I boot up my phone says Unlocked and if I choose to I can enter fastboot or recovery without issue. The problem comes when I try to flash a rom.
After doing the standard Factory reset, wipe cache wipe dalvik, I reboot and then get stuck on the Dual core screen. I have waited more than five minutes on this screen with no luck. Any suggestions?
I have tried both Aura and Darkside in the same manner as described above.
Thanks much!
You may NOT wipe Factory Reset after flashing a rom... maybe its that the problem...
1.- Wipe Data/Factory
2.- Wipe Cache
3.- Flash your desired ROM
4.- Reboot
Try it in that order...

Yeah I always do all of the wipes before the rom... It ended up being fixed by reflashing RomRacers recovery. Thanks

[Q] Stuck on bootscreen

Hey,
First off i hope i have put this on the right sub forum.
I've been stupid (I Think) I've olso looked around on the forum and the [READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!
topic.
I'm using my SGS2 for a year now and was using the ressurexionRimix rom for a while.
I've been plaing around with my phone so i got lots of folder that were not used etc, so I wanted to get it back to factory settings, here is when all went down.
Via Settings-Backup and recovery i gave my phone a factory reset (while using the latest ressurexionremix rom, i think this is the misstake i made) When my phone went into the reboot is got stuck on the splash screen, it kept reapeeting the boot animation.
The second mistake i mad was not puting back my back-up but thought well i want it back to it's first state so i'll use ODIN to flash the stock ROM onto it. now, 4 hours later and about 10 trys with diferent versions of the stock roms i'm still stuck on the boot screen.
I've also tryd flashing a cwm so i could get in cwm recovery, this also without any luck
Does anyone have a idea what to do!?
go back to recovery - mounts andstorage and format the following :
cache, system, data, sdcards if you have it in recovery. reboot
you have a bkank screen as your phone has been wiped. reboot into download mode.
Connect odin and flash a stock rom. reboot and your phone should work provided that you have not damaged the flash chip on the motherboard.
Is this in CWM? the problem is i dont have that anymore because i've flashed it toc stok. I now get in the Android system recovery
The option i get there ar:
Reboot system now
apply update from external storage
Wype data/factory reset
Wipe cache parition
apply update from cash
test redbend fola[FS]
Will try this, thank..will let you know if it worked
Wiped data/factory reset and cache after this i ebooted my phone and i got the message installing application, now i'm in the setup menu. Looks like it is working.
Did'nt realice there was a recovery besides CWM Thank yoy so much Cosmic Blue!!! You saved my life!!

flash stock ICS Rom ftf with flashtool
Thanks for help
Thanks I managed to flash stock Gingerbread in the end.
In case anyone else has a similar problem here is a handy guide I found. (youtube.com/watch?v=hPPWRXcsz7g)
Where it says connect phone I found you need to connect it in fast boot (hold volume up button as you connect it) when the software is ready to flash un-plug phone then connect in flash mode (hold volume down button as you connect).

Your device isn't "bricked" and there is no such thing as a "soft" brick, the phrase is nonsensical as is just a made up phrase by n00bs for n00bs to label the times when they cant get system to boot.
We already have a bootloop thread that discusses all the different ways to get system booting again. I would recommend you use search button and read.
Hi, please search.
