[Q] Rocko fails to flash - Motorola Photon 4G

Does anyone know what the issue is with the newer versions of the Rocko rom? I've tried out at least 4 other roms without any problems but Rocko 2.1 and 2.2.1 both seem to just sit at the motorola screen on the front. After I left it for 30 minutes or so 2.2.1 started showing the boot animation, but after another 30 minutes it was still just repeating so I think something is broken.

Ive wiped everything and flashed it with no problem I have feeling its the kernel that is not working for some people I would try
1.flash Rocko 2.2.1
2.flash kernel of choice
Shouldn't take more then 5 mins honestly
And im guessing your unlocked?

Wow, thanks for getting to me so soon.
Firstly I am definitely unlocked.
I'll give the flashing and switching kernel thing a try in a bit. I'm having the same problem with redROCKO1.1.1 too which is a bit odd.
I used TWRP 2.0 to install it, it shouldn't matter whether I use that or CWM, right?
Edit: Do you recommend a particular kernel? I've only flashed roms that already had their own kernels in the past.
Edit 2: I keep getting a message "E:Cannot load volume /misc!", could that be the problem?
Edit 3: I flashed Rocko 2.2.1 now for the third time and it started showing the boot animation properly after about 5 minutes. Another 10 minutes later and the boot animation isn't looping properly and the screen turns black for a second before it loops again.

Twrp had some problems flashing roms i like cwm better did you flash a different kernel?

Working on the kernel now. Did you know that most of the sites hosting Joker's 1.4 highpro kernel have taken it down on copyright grounds?

Flashed the 1.4 highpro kernel, same thing as before. The boot animation doesn't loop properly and nothing seems to be happening. I have to head out now so I'm just going to reflash my old setup for now and try to work on this more later tonight, thanks for your help. If you can think of anything I'll get to it later but the big thing I'm going to try is to flash cwm recovery back and see if installing with that makes a difference.

Sent from my MB855 using xda premium

So I tried it after flashing cwm back, still the same problem. Give up?
Edit: I also tried fixing permissions, and flashing the kernel over the kernel of my old HomeBase setup, the problem doesn't seem to be with the kernel.
What in the startup do you think could be erroring out/going in an endless loop?

Same things happens to me on 2.1.1 version and on 1.1.1 version after booting contating network its show than it show for activating if I press ok than again contating network comes its repeating again and again and this issue I face on joker and magnifier roms plz som1 help on this I, m on 198_7 rooted and unlocked

Help flashing Kens GB

I dont know what i am doing wrong i have bricked 3x trying to get this going. Ok here is the scoop one final time. I am on HKTW rigght now and i go to the CMW and flash the 4.5 it starts off smooth and then it gets stuck at the web-top permissions for some reason. DO i have to start from a lower build and update? I am determined to get this working tonight because i really dont want to get comfy with the HKTW because ill loose a lot when i eventually do flash. So some instructions please do i have to wipe anything before flashing? Please help me out and i leave yall in peace
Try with beta 3 first, I went from hktw to beta 3 with no issues
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Do you mind giving a little more info? What version of the CWM you are using might help, what exactly you mean when you say it gets stuck at the Webtop permissions, which exact version of 2.3.4 are you trying to install...
If you mean it hits Webtop during the install and doesn't go anywhere... well, for some reason Webtop takes for godawful ever to install. Several minutes. Try letting it sit for a little while?
Same boat
I'm in the same boat as you frankie. Had to flash back to HKTW because it kept getting stuck on dual core technology screen. Tried both Kens and Nava's GB .zips with no luck. Just realized my CWM is outdated, but I don't see how that would be the problem. The installation with Kens GB says its completed but the green bar isn't full, I let it sit and it fills up. I will update CWM and try again.
Try the beta 3 NOT 4.5
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
LMFAO I'm an idot... It was the outdated CWM, I updated it and it installed Kens GB ROM with no problem. Frankie I hope this works for you.
Funny how one small thing can break everything, isn't it?
True that, I think the main issue was the wipe data/format. Which the new CWM fixed
D$G THANK YOU for realizing what your mistake was. You know what? I have been making the exact same mistake. An old version of CWM, and getting stuck at the dual core screen. I get a feeling it will flash correctly for me this time. I hope the OP gets his own problem fixed.
yea thanks for real but how do i know which version i am using of it lol
[Edit] HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH IT WORKS its because i didnt have updated CMW but more important i cannot flash the radio.... why?
You have to flash the radio via RSDLite

Need help with evo 3d stuck at boot screen

Hey guys maybe some budy can help, I can go into recovery and wipe data, cache etc.. but for some reason I can't run any rom that runs with sence they all get stuck at boot screen, the phone freezes,.. but I can intall miui through fastboot and everything runs ok, rom boots it doesn't get stuch what's happening, by the way I unrooted the phone the HTC way so I'm on 1.5..
You need to reinstall a different kernel through fastboot usb. If miui works then a sense rom won't until you flash compatible kernel.

Similar problem being stuck in boot screen
I am on twrp shooter 2.0 with hboot 1.5 and I was running syncombelite when I tried to in stall the CM9 Alpha build and I was not having luck with loading the rom through recovery so I tried to use Flash image GUI. It loaded the image but after it was done it would not boot. I was stuck on the HTC boot screen. I tried to do a nandroid recovery and the same thing over and over. I figured maybe try a different rom so I tried a couple.. I used one and it actually made it past the boot screen and loaded the Beats audio logo then was stuck there for maybe 30 minutes before I tried a reboot and the same thing. Then I though I wll do a superwipe so I downloaded the synergy superwipe along with the
fresh-evo-3d-4.2.0 then it made it past the HTC boot and just went black for another 30 minutes. Now I am at a loss. Please help me...

your phone is doing a boot loop b/c your boot.img file is corrupt... the rom you are trying to install isnt installing properly and is causing this issue....what version of the rom are you trying to install?

The recovery you use shouldn't matter. I have used CWM touch and non and TWRP all the same as long as it works for you. The easy way to flash CM9 is to use FlashImageGUI.apk before you wipe your current rom. Do not wipe ROM before using FlashGUI as it needs a OS to run on.
First flash recovery, whichever you want. If you don't already have one.
Put CM9 on sd
Flash boot.img from CM9.zip with Flash...GUI.apk (browse to CW9 on sd card)
Boot recovery, Flash rom from there.
(Flash..GUI should ask if you want to boot recovery after flash)
I used TWRP to flash CM9 tonight so I know it works 100%
I have tried that and I get stuck at HTC boot screen. I'm at a loss. I finally got virus eternity to flash using fastboot on my pc. I then tried ics (yes I know that's not what we were talking about) but I can't flash many different Roms lately. It's just weird. I have been rooting and flashing for a couple years now but I'm feeling more noobish lately than ever.

[Q] I need help to stop all the reboots

hello and thank you for taking the time to read my post and your efforts to help.
my rebooting problem is really frustrating because it seems to inconsistent to really describe. i'll try my best.
gsm evo 3d Rogers Canada
unlocked, rooted using revolutionary, s-off
now it reads hboot 1.49.1107, radio 10.13.9020.08_2m
ive tried several roms and kernels (king cobra, ROMeOS, LeeDroid) -nothing solves my problem. Im currently on ROMeOS with the stock kernel he provided.
I've done SEVERAL full wipes by clearing cache, dalvik, full wipes and used superwipe. still no good.
1) it tends to do a lot of rebooting in the morning after charging all night. ill wake up, use it for a while and it'll reboot in my hands or seconds after i put it down.
2) the only thing that seems to help prevent reboots sometimes is turning it off and leaving it off for a few hours. but even this only works inconsistently.
3) Ive often noticed a huge battery drain (roughly 20% in 30 mins) on those mornings when it then proceeds to reboot.
sometimes, after leaving it off for a few hours and turning it on again, it reads a higher battery level and then works well the rest of the day. in fact, once it begins to work well, it tends to drain nice and slowly and not give any problems until the next morning after another night of charging.
Ive noticed that often, if i get the big drains in the morning, i can unplug it and immediately replug it until it reaches full and it then works well with no reboots and good battery life that day.
it also takes forever to go from 99% to 100% charged.
4) another thing that bothers me is that i can do all the wipes and clean install a rom and it'll will work fine for a few weeks until all this starts happening again. OR it can begin repeating these problems right after a clean rom install.
5) another weird thing is that often, i cannot turn the phone on without using volume up and down and power at the same time.
I wanted to return to the stock rom without losing root so and i downloaded the rogers stock RUU thinking it would be a ZIP file that i could just flash through CWM but i keep reading contradicting instructions on how to do that. some just said "download the RUU, plug into PC and install" but that sounds really vague. In other posts it says i have to relock bootloader and extract the zip etc -which seems so much more complicated than just flashing a new zip file. so im stuck not knowing what to do.
have mercy on me guys...

i finally got to download it but its an exe file and i havnt found clear instructions for how to use it. i'm used to flashing zip files from CWM.
can you please advise?
i read its just a matter of plugging the phone to the pc with usb debugging and running the exe file. with this method, will i lose superuser permissions, s-off, or root?
I'm a Sprint user but I had a huge issue with random reboots after upgrading to the latest OTA from sprint. I have s-off through revolutionary. It sounds exactly like the issues the OP described so I'm just going to say that the only way I got rid of my random reboots was to use the latest RUU.exe file from my PC to restore my phone to completely stock (but you keep s-off after using the RUU). Every time I tried to upgrade to the newest OTA from Sprint using a PG86IMG.zip file, I would have the random reboot issue. After the RUU, no more random reboots on any ROM, whether it was MIUI, Sense 3.0, 3.5, or AOSP/ICS
Also, I sent some detailed instructions via PM to a few sprint XDAers who asked for help getting rid of random reboots. The replies I got all said the reboot issue went away. Idk if it's the same sort of underlying issue for everyone on the GSM EVO 3D, just thought I'd share my experiences

Put the exe on your computer, not your phone. boot into fastboot (hold vol down and press power on, then choose fastboot), then plug your phone in and run the exe on your computer.
EDIT: just noticed I didn't answer everything you said. You keep s-off, but lose the custom recovery, and root/superuser (same thing essentially). Getting root back is really simple though, all you have to do is add superuser back to the stock ROM (RUU puts you on completely stock ROM/kernel) or flash a custom recovery again and then any ROM from recovery, and you'll get superuser/root back in that ROM
Try this its helps with reboots. A lot of useres tend to neglect cleaning there sd and it can cause major reboots on all kind of roms and kernels

[Solved] CM9 Bootloop (Android Apps Update then back to logo)

Okay I have been trying to get a CM9 rom to boot on my Atrix for about a week now. I am coming from Nottachtrix 1.3.1 on radio 37p with faux GB24 kernel. My bootloader is unlocked and I perform all necessary wipes before install. The furthest I have gotten any of the CM9 roms to boot is the screen that states Android Apps(or something) updateing. It then states starting system and boots back to the booting logo. I have tried fastboot -w. Formating data, cache, system, osh, pre install in mounts storage menu, and clearing both caches before and after install and I get the same results. This only happens with CM9 roms. I cannot get the CNA, Jokers, Turls, or Atrix tablet past the screen stated. I have tried with the latest rom racer from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500 and both recovery and touch recovery from rom manager and I get the same results. I have posted my issue in the dev section, but decided this was better as I did not want to clutter up the dev forum with my problems. Could it just be my Atrix or would the 37p radio have something to do with the bootlooping issue. Any help would be very much appreciated.
For some odd reason I decided to pull my external SD card before boot, and freaking BOOM BANG POW NO BOOTLOOP!

Did you flash twice ?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
I believe the problem is with the radio, I had this issue (on stock radio), then I upgraded to the newest CM9 Kang (0.4.4) and it went away. I then flashed the 37p radio in an attempt to fix a problem I've been having with my WiFi and bluetooth (they both don't work and cause reboots, I assume now it's a hardware problem) and the boot loop came back. I'm gonna try flashing some other radios to see if that works.
Yes flashed twice to no avail. Gonna try the 36p radio and stock to see if that fixes my issue.

OP......Not your phone or radio. There is something you are doing incorrectly. Quite possibly wipe procedure. If I remember when I am at my PC in the morning I will PM you exact instructions, start to finish, for flashing one of the CM9 builds.

Trust me, the CM9 kang (not turl's version, haven't tried that) didn't work unless you flashed it twice up to version 0.4.2 (I skipped 0.4.3 and installed 0.4.4 straight without wiping and only flashed once and it worked, so it's possible they fixed the bug). I don't think anyone knows why, but it's been confirmed many times.

That is what I am hoping, but I have tried every procedure I could find within the forums. Your start to finish is gonna be my last hope.
So I followed the same steps I use for other roms and managed to get this one working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580449
Hey CaelanT any luck on getting me a step by step.

Thanks for reminding me. Will get something to you here in a few!
<edit> Check your messages!
Gonna give it a shot soon as I get off work.
EDIT:
Unfortunately that was a no go as well. Followed everything to a tee and tried different kernels. I can only get the AOKP rom to boot, but its is currently without USB storage. Does anyone know a difference in the roms that would cause my Atrix to boot on one and not the other. I can also manage to get the MIUI to boot.

I think something is going on with the kernel. You may have a bad processor. That's where my train of thought is right now. Sorry I couldn't get you up and running!

Thanks for all you help. Finally got it to boot by removing external sd card.
[EDIT] Not sure but I believe the problem I had with m external sd is I still had an ext4 primary partition on it from when I was using Webtop2SD. Copying everything over to pc now and reformating external to see if my assumption is correct.
Looks like the ext4 partition on as was the culprit.

[Q] Reset to fully stock

So i purchased an atrix 4g off of eBay, and it has a few Root applications on it, but isn't actually rooted.
The android recovery mode is also broken, i get an android robot with the Attention symbol. Would post a link to one i found on the internet but i cannot since i am under 8 posts.
The phone was on 2.3.6 build # 4.5.141 when i received it. and i have done nothing to it so far.
So maybe someone applied OTA updates and killed the root or something, idk.
in the end the end i would like to root it with some ISC.
So is there anyway i can Reset everything to stock out of the box. Or to fix the problems with recovery?
Also for now it wont really be used as a phone, as i don't have a sim yet.
To cover the basics here let's make sure the phone isn't bootloader unlocked or rooted. To check bootloader, when you boot the phone, does the moto screen say "Unlocked" in top left hand corner of the screen? If not, it isn't. Then for root, check it with the app root checker basic or pro from market. Get back to the thread once you can answer those questions and then I will post something to help you with the getting ics.

Both of those come up as a no So no unlocked boot loader and no root
Try this but you know the risks of messing with the phone right??? Read EVERYTHING before you do. Your phone says a different version of firmware than the thread but if you look back in the posts of the thread in the end, it will work. You can also read the Atrix thread stickies.
Edit.... having trouble posting link ... give me sec.
Edit 2....can't post from phone. Let me post it from my computer when I get to the computer in the morning.

Try cm9. Here's the order you should do it in:
1. Full wipe
2. Flash 0.6
3. Flash 0.6 again
4. Flash gapps

Have you flashed a different ROM for the time being to at least have a working phone? Like a blur or cm7 ROM?
Sent from my Atrix with XDA Premium
Thats is what i was going to try next, i havent got to it today.
Are you flashing plugged in? Try flashing the rom without having your phone plugged in.
Also, if you're at the M logo screen, I suggest waiting it out for quite a while. Be patient. I used to think when I flashed roms that I was stuck at M logo, but I just wasn't waiting long enough, especially coming from a full wipe.
Otherwise, try doing a battery pull and then putting it back in and booting it up.
You can also try using Nottachtrix with the installer? I've heard that fixes a lot of people's problems that are getting stuck at logo screen.
well right now it seems that the battery is dead and wont charge....
So im not sure what im gonna do about that
Ok so im installing NottachTrix now will report how it went when done.
Also about leaving it on to boot, i did that for 24 hours, nothing happened
Edit:
It seems to be working so far. The phone is stuck at a charging screen with a battery icon, much more than it was before.

Wipe cache partition, wipe data, wipe delvik. Install Rom (cm7). Reboot recovery. Install gapps. Reboot now. If it's not working perhaps you cwm is outdated?

NottachTrix works fine so far, my battery just needed to charge some.
