How do i do that. I havent been using my phone in a while

also make sure you're using either the most up to date CWM from Rom Manager or the most up to date version of Romracer's recovery

most ppl who run into the bootloop problem with cm7 install forget to wipe data/factory reset...make sure u boot into recovery and do that.. on the latest CWM it's the 3rd option down

PEOPLE:
How do I get to the place where I can wipe the memory or clear cache? Is it Power+Vol Down?

yeah it power then hold volume down untll you see fastboot. then hit volume down untill you see android recovery, then hit volume up

YES! Got it working.
Thanks for all of those who helped!

Im glad it was that easy

Q- Hanging on Cyanogdenmod Splash Screen after flash?

I have just flashed my Galaxy 5 with Cyanogenmod latest and it is now stuck on a reapeating splash screen of a little blue droid guy, its not doing nothing i cant access my phone as it wont advance from this splash screen, i have removed my battery but nothing has worked.
Any quick tips/fix please?
have you wiped data, cache, and dalvik cache?
I havent a clue what you mean so i'm guessing not aha:/
whats your custom recovery?
for amonra, there should be an option called wipe and it has everything i just said.
for clockworkmod, theres wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, and under advanced, theres wipe dalvik cache
I am not 100% positive but i used Clockworkmod v4 in order to get Cyanogenmod 7 onto my device if that answers your question? (im new to all this stuff).
All ive did is;
Installed clockworkmod v4
rebooted my device.
installed cyanogenmod as a zip from my sd card
rebooted my device.
Turned it back on and just this splash screen repeating
Im sorry i suck at this aha
with your phone off, hold home+vol down+power.
when it boots into clockworkmod, on the first menu, there should be an option to wipe data/factory reset and another one to wipe cache. do both.
then after you are done with that, go into the advanced menu and select wipe dalvik cache. now reboot
When i hold that combination down it brings up Download mode for some reason :S
oh yeah. my bad i was thinking about my phone.
try reinstalling the recovery (using odin) and see if it boots back into recovery (do this at your own risk; since i dont have a phone that uses odin, im not sure if this will work or not)
Could this damage/brick my phone?
Thank you so so so so much sir! Id take my hat off for you, if i wore one!
I love you.
im guessing it worked, right?
no problem
Yes ahah, longest 3 minutes in my life though! Thanks alot.

Did you wipe the dalvik cache? If you didn't, go into recovery, then click advanced, then click wipe dalvik cache.
i whipped dalvik cache, still sits in the boot logo

Maybe you've had a bad install. Try wiping everything again, and then re-installing. After you've reinstalled, wipe everything again just for good measure.
This happened to me before, just download CM7 again onto your sd card and then go into your recovery menu and wipe dalvik, wipe cache, wipe data, then try reflashing the new CM7 zip you have on your sd card and reboot

I think this maybe my problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219956
cause I can only access my internal memory, but I have a bigger problem it says my battery is to low to flash and it doesnt seem to be charging. Iis there any mode under those options when you hold power and down volume that would charge the phone?
Try the method I posted on that thread to charge your phone, its a video on youtube that tells you how to.

[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.

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

Need help with Paranoid Android Rom

Just got a new EvoLTE, it's rooted, unlocked, S-Off and has TWRP. I wiped the cache and the Dalvik and tried to install Paranoid Android. My phone boots up to the Rom Logo but is stuck. Am I missing something? How do I boot into recovery since this phone doesn't have a removable battery?

Hold the power button down until it does a hard shut down. Then hold volume down and power and it should put you into hboot and give you the option to select recovery.
Once in recovery you will want to wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache X3 (just what i do)
then do a factory reset and system reset
Than flash rom and see how that goes.
Worked like a charm. Thanks a bunch.

NP! Glad I could be of assistance!
Okay, ran into the same issue trying to install a battery mod. Stuck on the boot animation again. Dow I wipe x3 and try to re-install the mod do I have to start from scratch again?

Did you flash battery mod from sense on aosp rom? If yes, then you have to start from scratch. You have to be more specific on what mod you flashed. You have to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing any mod.

[Q] rooted i777 running stock MD8 & AJKv4.9 NoSwap :: Stuck in boot loop

Howdy partners, not sure if I should have started my own thread...let me know if that is proper procedure please. I've already read the recent boot loop thread by vlmaadir t=2558286, but I'm unsure as to the applicability of the solutions in that thread to my problem.
I'm in a similar situation as the vlmaadir, except I've been running the most recent stock ROM (UCMD8) and have rooted via framaroot and flashed the AJKv4.9 - NoSwap Kernal successfully around 12/5/2013. Of course I've yet to do a backup of the OS or apps, but pics/vids/contacts were all recently backed up.
About two weeks ago I started noticing random reboots, but wasn't really sure what to make of that, never any boot looping though. Well this morning the phone was working when i woke (phone alarm raised me from the dead on time) and had approx. 70% battery, but by the time I got to work, the phone had apparently powered off.
When I powered it back on, it took a several minutes to boot up (normally around 45sec-1min), once booted the battery showed about 10-15% (in the red). The few apps I opened worked (naked browser, outlook), but were a bit laggy. I decided to restart the phone from the regular power menu to see if that would help the laggy/battery issue, and upon restart I am now solidly stuck in my 1st android boot loop!!!
I can boot into CWM recovery, but have yet to do any wiping as I wanted to seek a bit of advice here 1st.
If anyone has any pointers, I'm listening.
Thanks!
I would 1st try a wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache from cwm recovery and see if it will reboot.
If it doesn't then u will probably have to wipe data/factory reset from cwm recovery and then reboot.
If ya have been runnin good for a while with AJ's kernel, then a rogue app may be the cause of ur problem.
R u tweakin anything in the kernel through stweaks apk ?

Thanks 4-2.
If I have to go wipe data/factory reset, should i have to re-flash the rom and kernel?
I've been running the AJK for about a month, no tweaks. Like I said in the OP, I had noticed some random reboots in the past few weeks and at some point over Christmas day, when I was doing a good bit of pic/video work on my phone, it came up with a message that the internal storage memory was low. I knew this wasn't the case, at least as far as the entire internal memory, which had around 3 gigs free. Just a few strange things I've noticed since having AJK in place.
Are there any other good kernels for stock 4.1.2? AJK seemed to be the go-to of main stock and custom ROM folks.
I did a cache wipe, but when I enter the dalvik wipe confirm menu, the output shows
E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
and when I confirm yes, wipe dalvik, the screen goes black, then the phone restarts into the boot loop.
Any one know what is up here?
^^
Doing and wipe data/factory reset in the cwm recovery will just return the Stock MD8 to just full stock, as if u first installed it through Odin or att official, Except u will still have the AJ kernel. There is no need to reflash the rom as u say.
But if u cannot find an app that is causing the problem, then a complete Odin flash to Stock MD8 should help in the troubleshooting.

The "E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]" is the norm from what i remember.
But not sure why choosing to wipe dalvik cache resulted in a bootloop.
Have ya tried the wipe data/factory reset yet ?
Just did a wipe data/factory reset and I got out of the boot loop! Now I just have to set the phone up like I had it once again! Boo!
Thanks for the input 4-2!!!
Glad ya got it going. :good:
If any other problems arise, just let us know. There are several good members around that are glad to help.
