My phone upon reboot usually gets stuck on a "Sorry! Process system is not responding" "Force Close" or "Wait".
Neither option works and I have to do a battery pull.
It doesn't matter what ROM I use it always happens.
Would someone be able to tell me how to get a log from bootup? And would someone be willing to look at the log for me?
Thanks guys!

I don't mean to sound like a tool by suggesting this, but, have you wiped? Wipe cache and dalvik to start off with see if that works...and if it doesn't do a full wipe and get back to us.
Again, I'm not trying to be a ****...if you are beyond this level of help, well, we're gunna need more details.
i can tell you how to get a log but i cant tell you whats wrong using the log
plug your phone into your computer, using adb type in "adb logcat" and press enter and you should see a whole bunch of text start appearing
before you flash a rom do you do factory resets and make sure to wipe your cache and dalvik cache? that could be the problem..
I have done it all, wiped dalvik, cache, and everything else. I even tried using CWM instead of twrp and the issue remains.
Thanks everyone for trying to help...

If you've done a full wipe and tried different roms then I would be inclined to believe that the issue is likely hardware.

I would use TWRP and do this:
Go into wipe menu, then Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data (factory reset). Go into advanced menu (I think) and there should be another wipe menu. Wipe /system. Then flash the ROM of your choice and it should be fixed. Wiping /system manually is the key since some ROMs don't do that (mine does, however)
Thanks ill try the advanced system wipe.

Negative I tried formatting system and all the rest. It didn't work. The strange thing is when I remove my sdcard it boots fine, I tried a second sdcard and the same issue.
Thanks again guys.

In a word, yes. Are any of these 'bargain' cards you got online by chance? If not and they are from a reputable vendor I would put them in the computer, copy data off and format them....and if that still doesn't help find a 'known good' card and go on from there. The stock card would be preferable, but, if you can't find that a 'known good' card is the next best thing. If the stock card or a 'known' good card doesn't help I'm still inclined to think it's a hardware error...but after hearing about the SDcard I'm leaning towards the phone is fine the card is screwed.

ok I appreciate the help and I will look for a new card.
Went to a sprint store, they said its probably a hardware issue and they ordered me a new one.
Here's to hoping the new one one won't have any issues....
I appreciate all the help from you guys.

Update: Worked for me on my Note
Given the similarity of hardware, i'm inclined to think that the Darkside superwipe tool (CMW tool) from the AT&T skyrocket forum would work for the note. I'm willing to give it a go depending on peoples feedback here. The tool i'm refering to is linked below.
*Added note for clarity: I am not aware of anyone else besides me using this Skyrocket tool on the note - i advise caution, intrepid explorers only! Please use the reference link for guidance on usage:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487706
It makes rom testing that much easier by performing all necessary wipes for a clean install.
Thanks in advance for your input!
I went ahead and tried it. Seems to work without issue, no errors. Saurom installing now.
His wording isn't very detailed in the thread. Do you put it in the root folder of your internal SD?
How do you know it worked? Did you flash a rom after or did you apply his update zip and then just reboot and everything was wiped?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Well, I went from the TPC rom to Saurom, running this CWM darkside install script before Saurom installation. Not only did the new rom install without issue, it did so without inheriting any installs from the tpc rom (which happans when flashing compatable roms over each other w/o wipe). But I didnt run darkside wipe and try to boot, i proceeded with the new rom installation. I took a leap of faith that the "success" messages indicated correctly after the wipe.
As for instructions on how to use, refer to the link in the OP

Glad to hear it works, makes me think more Skyrocket stuff might be compatible or at least easily ported. Only time will tell.
so, anyone else try this?
on my e4gt, we had caulkins wipe, which was a fantastic tool to run b4 flashing a new rom..hope this is the same type of tool for our Notes!
worked good for me

flawless victory :highfive:
It works perfectly fine. I've been using it for the better part of the last year without any issues. I've used it on CWM and TWRP.
I recommend that you use it after you've done your Factory Wipe and wiped Cache/Dalvik x3; cleans everything up nicely for a fresh install. :thumbup:

I don't recommend this. I used this and it fried my external memory card. Can't mount it or format it. Thank god it was only a 8gb.
I have used it on the t989 and the skyrocket when i had both with no issues but with my note it damaged my memory card.

Tell that to the 2 memory cards i fried just to see if it was the wipe. Killed a 8gb and a 1gb after doing the wipe.

Have to go with wase on this one, used it everytime I flashed a ROM or prior to nand restore. Works like a charm and never had memory cards issues.
It's a random softbrick, no changes have been made for months, so I've not backed up for ages, I want to svae contacts and messages and app data.
Will odin wipe data, can it be repaired with CWM no wipe flash?
Long version.
I've been using ICS for 4 months.
I did a wipe and fresh install on the release of the official GB ICS.
I then used clockwork mod to changle toggles and clock, then triangle away.
Things were ok until a month ago when I hit the App to SD memory bug, which was fixed be removing apps back to internal.
Again been fine for about a month.
Then today, random lock on "Samsung Galaxy s II gt-9100" screen.
No changes have been made for ages, the only change was adding on{x} today.
Whats the best way to try and get this fixed? I want to save as much data as I can, I've not backed up for a few months, as I wasn't ,making any changes.
Should I just Just use odin and see what happens, or is there a better way, even if it is longer?
Can I put a no wipe flash on my SD and use CWM to try and repair? Is this a more complicated risk move? if so whats the risk.
I'd really like to keep as much as I can 'cos I've got the perfect setup for me (besides the boot lock...)
THanks folks.

I've lost loads of data :-(
But my phones sweet

I really should know better, as a sys admin I bollock folks all the time for not doing backups. luckily I backed up messages recently, so should also have contacs there. Just all my save games, app data, is gone

You can flash a 4.2.2 ROM; however, be aware 4.2.2 uses a different format for SD than 4.1.2 does. The standard practice if coming from 4.1.2 is:
1.Move everything you want to keep, including Titanium backup folder, pics, music, everything...from your SD to a PC.
2. Copy ROM onto your SD storage from PC or download.
3. Boot into recovery and wipe data and cache ONLY.
4. Flash ROM.
5. Boot into new ROM for first time.
6. After it boots up, boot back into recovery.
7. Format SD card (main SD storage only).
8. Boot back into ROM, set it up, and transfer all your personal stuff into the 0 folder on your SD storage.
9. Enjoy!

Yes you will need to have a 3rd party bootloader. Theres a few guides here and on the Main One forums on how to.
Also, to address something you mentioned in your OP...no need to be s-off.
Would not formatting your 'SD Card' cause any issues? Whenever I try to flash an AOSP 4.2.2 ROM it crashes shortly after booting and the power button no longer wakes the phone, would this be the cause?

Yes. You have to follow the directions explicitly. In other words, you have to wipe your sd card the first time.

How would you do that from TWRP? I have format sd card, but that'll wipe all my backups etc.
EDIT: Also, when you flash a ROM, doesn't it automatically wipe all the partitions before it installs? Also, someone mentioned alternative bootloader? Is that necessary, what alternatives are there?
Yeah I flashed a 4.2.2 Rom and of course it went smooth but I lost my data backups oh well live and learn

Flashing a ROM doesnt necessarily automatically wipe partitions, and the ones that do dont touch your personal data. An alternative to TWRP would be clockwork mod recovery.

Did you read the instructions? Step 1 says to back up ALL your data onto a PC because the file structure is different on 4.2.2 that 4.1.2.
I never deleted my ad contents when I switched to 4.2.2 they just get "moved" just "move" everything back and your good to go .. I would hate to backup 20 gigs worth of music and pics just for a Rom

I expect that the official update will erase the entire phone, but I could be wrong.

Found this link, which indicates that there may be some emulation of directories. Maybe they will copy the files over:

Hi everyone,
I wanted to ask if there was any reason to not just do a compete wipe of my phone and the SD card.
I'm trying to start all over with this phone. I have a HTC Thunderbolt that I haven't uploaded a new ROM on in almost a year.
I'm currently in Japan, but will be returning to the states for vacation and would like for my phone not to give me to much to worry about since it's been pretty out of sync for a while.
I'm not worried about losing contacts or anything (it's all up to date on my google account) but are there any system files that are saved on the SD card that are necessary?
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and give any advice.
I've done it.
I wiped the sd card not realizing it deleted the rom I was going to flash when I did that and I had nothing to flash.
Luckily I was able to Mount it with usb and put the room back on.
Worked out okay.
As long as your recovery has the Mount as usb feature you will be able to put the room back on and flash. Or you can push one with adb.

I actually got ballsy and just did it as well.
It worked out just fine actually. It's a good thing I had all my music on my computer because I didn't think about it deleting all of that haha.
But now I'm running a very clean LiquidSmooth ICS rom and it is amazing so far.
Now I just need my extended battery to come in from Amazon
