My P500 hasn't been co-operating AT ALL lately. Every custom ROM that I flash and try out gets stuck in bootloops after rebooting. I don't flash anything apart from what the developer says to flash, but I always get stuck on bootloops. Also, whenever I try restoring a nandroid backup, it gets stuck in a bootloop as well. Every reboot causes a bootloop. What am I doing wrong?

It could be your sd card causes. Try to use another sd card and install a rom. Just a suggestion.

Hm, never thought of that. I'll test it out tonight and I'll get back to you.
Do you clear data, and system and boot before flashing?
Seek the signature below the line
Bootlop is normal when recovering a nandroid backup trough cwm
Try wipping cache, dalvik cache, data and /system, them flash.

Yeah, I do all the prerequisities everytime I flash a new ROM. Wipe Data, Cache, dalvik, /System, but it still bootloops.
Right now I'm on CM7.2 Nightly with Stock kernel, but I wanna test some other ROMs to help out with development. Of course, I can't because of this bootloop issue.

Use amonra. It is better than cwm 5.0.2.7

bootloops
try flashing a lg 2.3.3 stock rom then flash something else i had the same problem that fixed it
I already am using AmonRa - forgot to mention.
I did notice in the phone info for each ROM I use, the baseband would have some weird characters like ".\*@ ../?" rather than the "LGP500 V20G etc etc" that it should have. So, I re-flashed the new baseband via LGMDP.exe and now I'm using the AOPK APHONETHATIUSE custom ROM and it seems to be fine.
I also did reformat and partition the SD card just to be sure that there's no problems with that.
I'll use it for a while and I'll see what happens.
I had the same problem flash it with v20g first with kdz and u can use it in any manner; )

Hello my friends.
I unlocked the BL and install the CWM. So i try to install a new ROM at my Atrix.
I made the installation of the Neutrino V1.4 GT, but after made the installation of the .zip , my atrix got stuck at the boot screen.
So i made the restore of the backup that I already made, and the smartphone starts ok.
After that i tried install other ROM , CM7-ICS-FINAL and I got the same stuck boot screen.
I found other Thread about that same problem, and the user found a solution but he forgot to post that solution, just wrote ''problem solve''.
Anyone know what can i make to install the ROM ? Thanks for your attention

You are most likely using an outdated CWM (my guess would be Tenfar's). If it doesn't support ext4 then any ROM based on CM7 will not boot. Either use the one that comes with ROM Manager, romracer's, or TWRP.

That would be my guess, the recovery.

Hello my friends..
I made the install of the romracers recovery.. and i installed the ROM ( Neutrino ROM ).
But Now it gets to the boot up screen that says "Neutrino ROM ... system loading" the screen will black out for a couple seconds and then come right back to that screen in a loop. its been happening for about 15 minutes.
obs : I forgot to make the backup
Thanks for the help!
Did you use the recovery for the factory data reset and wipe cache/dalvik cache? You might want to try fastboot wipe as well.

hello my friend,
i just made the WIPE CACHE AND WIPE DALVIK CACHE and the install of the ROM.
When i saw the screen NEUTRINO I was happy, until the time the ''system loading" getting black out for a couple seconds and then come right back. I knew there was something wrong.
Now I will make the process again with the factory data reset and then i will post what happened
Thanks
MY FRIEND..
thanks for all the support! I made the again the process with the factory reset and now the ROM is installed correctly.
Let me ask a question. I want to install a new kernel to try the overclock 1.3GHZ. That new kernel can be installed with the romracers ?

Yes, romracer is recommended. It is the only recovery that is specifically developed for the Atrix 4G. You could also try the TRWP Recovery but romracer's recovery is proven to work well and recommended by most.
Glad everything worked out.

Hi,
so I tried to install a new theme and during the install the phone froze. I tried to access the recovery again, but I can't, the phone stucks at galaxy s3 screen. However I can access download mode.
My question is, what do I have to do to keep my SD Card content (like pictures)? Which firmware should I flash? I was on Wanam Lite Rom.
Thanks for Help

Flashing a theme will not mess your recovery partition so it cannot happen that you have lost recovery..so try again..
Once you are able to boot into recovery flash the ROM which you were using without a wipe first...you will not loose anything..if you face problems then wipe data/factory reset in CWM ..even then you will not loose the data on your internal SD..

Hi everyone,
Someone knows how to turn off my phone, everytime I use the Power off option the phone is rebooted. Also I tryed using a halt comnand but the phone was rebooted too.
What's wrong?
This happened to me using CM9 and now CM10 (nightly version and TNT)
Thanks.

Try boot into CWM and power off it from recovery.
Or you can flash another kernel, maybe is a kernel issue.

No, boot into CWM didn't work.

Maybe this is a kernel issue, as you mentioned.

Hi, all!
I have that annoying problem with all the 4.3 ROM I've tried with no exception. Everything is fine until the first reboot. Then it's stuck on the first Galaxy SIII boot logo. I'm using TWRP - the latest version if it matters.
I always wipe everything first.
Please give more details on how you flash it.

If you did all required wipes and followed the instructions did you try a different recovery? I read in the SB thread for example of people having issues with TWRP
Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
I am sorry for the wrong section. May I ask some to move it to Q&A?
I always wipe data, cash, dalvik cash, system. Then install the ROM and gapps...
After the restart I set up the google account and etc. And after the first restart the phone freezes. That's all.
I'll try with different recovery.
PS. I've just tried CWM recovery 6.0.3.3. and Omega AOSP v9. Still the same.
Try cwm 6.0.3.6 and after you install the rom and after its set up go to recovery and factory reset

That's strange, I run Philz recovery and every 4.3 flash till now went through without issue.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I tried all the recoveries I could find. Including Philz. Still the same.
And something else strange. I installed CWM, CWM, touch and Philz and with them I made backups. After restoration of the backup the phone freezes. I also tried to install Omega 49 and the installation goes OK, but freezes before the first start-up.
The only solution was to install manually TWRP (Odin) to restore some of my old backups. I'm beginning to think that there is something wrong with my phone. It's black if it is important.
Suggest total wipe of phone install your stock rom and test
Hi,
I just want to say I'm also having the same problem.
Started using TWRP with full wipe, same issue on 4.3 and no issues on 4.2.
On latest CWM same problem and 4.2 wont even pass the first boot on Samsung logo.
Also had to use Odin to get back on TWRP and flash a 4.2 rom again.
Anyway there is one more thing I would like to try but haven't had the chance to do so, is installing the latest modem and ril. But I'm kind skeptic about that currently because there is also some risks and my S3 is my daily driver.
Don't change the ril on any custom as you stand a big chance of breaking the calls and Tex's. Modem yes but not ril. Do change to cwm and retry.

You are doing a full wipe?. System and data is the main thing to wipe not just factory reset. So go into mounts and storage and format data,system and cache there then flash the rom /gapps.

Start fresh and flash stock with Odin then try again after you root and install cwm.

But nothing helped. I flashed a stock ROM, with Odin. First I tried with TWRP, and the second time (again after flashing stock) with CWM recovery. I tried two 4.3 ROMs. They both can't boot after the first reboot.

Hi, I think I did the following steps to get it working on my device.
1. Flash stock with odin
2. Hard reset
3. Boot up and finish first run menus
4. Flash twrp with odin
5. Format data with twrp
6. Flash 4.3 rom
