I had an issue kinda similar like this and ended up having to flash the RUU through the bootloader. It is the stock firmware 605.19, and I had to reroot. It's a pain I know but it works

I to had to this at one point and it does work. I would first try to flash cwm in fastboot though. Sometimes that works.

My friend's phone tried to pull an OTA while he had CWM recovery installed, and it started boot looping. Had to download the stock recovery, name is PG05IMG.zip in the root of the SDCard, and force the phone to boot to the bootloader and install it. Once it did, the phone started up, rebooted itself, and installed the OTA fine. Sounds like yours may be trying to do something similar?
If so rooted phones need caches cleared for the ota to work.

From my understanding, Rooted can still take OTA, but you have to have stock recovery to do it (as I witnessed earlier). You will lose root, and will have to re-flash recovery to TWRP, CWMR, or whatever your normal choice is, and then re-apply the su.zip, but otherwise easy as pie.

Do you by chance have a working link to the stock recovery? I have been trying to find one without success.

Stock recovery PG05IMG.zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/PG05IMG-Stock-Recovery.zip
Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone who has posted in this thread to try and help out. I just started having a very similar problem- I'm rooted and running stock, but apparently my phone accepted an OTA and I'm stuck in a bootloop as well.
I got into CWM recovery and downloaded the stock recovery PG05IMG.zip, but it won't install. It just aborts every time I try to install it. I'm a noob at this stuff and not very good at dealing with these sorts of things and I've been having a panic attack for the past hour, so if anyone could help me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it.
I'm really scared of making things worse than they already are. I just want a working phone.

The zip won't work in CWM because it's not designed for use with CWM. It's designed for use in Fastboot. Should be on the root of your sd card. From off, if I'm correct (like this with other HTC devices), hold volume down and power to boot into fastboot. This will allow it to flash the stock recovery.

Right. I also have a recovery zip that installs the stock recovery if anyone wants it?
It can be found here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/OTARestoreAndRecovery.zip
(warning: I have tested it and it works but it did cause me a bootloop, and im assuming this is becuase im on a different rom - - - so not responsible for any damages)

you don't need to remove CWM
You only need stock rom and stock modem. If you have that go to the Samsung site and get your upgrade.

Hi Guys,
Last night for some reason my GT-19100T running CM9.1.0 wouldn't lock by pressing the power button, the button itself seems to be working. I can press the button down but nothing happens. I left it for the night and came into work this morning, I thought it might be a bug with the rom, i managed to boot into recovery via the "Rom Manager" app and was going to flash to CM10. My problem is now that i am in recovery, I can't select anything as the power button is not working. I can scroll through the recovery menu with the volume buttons but cant select anything, and now soon as the phone turns on after removing the battery, it goes straight to recovery mode and i cant get around it.
I have tried leaving the battery out for about 3 hours and same thing. I can boot into download mode, But at the moment that doesn't help me.
Any suggestions on what i can do? I'm not worried about warranty so i may pull the phone apart and clean it tonight. Thanks in advance.
Update:
After much playing around with the button i can get it work, it is very temperamental and requires to be pushed in the right way. Was able to flash with Touch recovery and am now updating to CM10 nightlies. Thanks all for your help on my first post.

Hi!
First, have you tried flashing a stock firmware? If that does not help, you can try cleaning your hardware.. it may be dusty or something.. be careful! I hope you get this sorted out.
Also, i hope my suggestion will help you out, cheers!!

Okay, Flashed back to stock ICS rom, Got a little bit further but still no go. It gets the "S" loading screen and stays there, Still cant do factory reset via Android Recovery as it also needs the power button to select. Someone suggested installing CWM touch recovery but i cant find a .tar version of "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-galaxys2" downloaded from CWM website. Any suggestions on how i can install this without using recovery? Thanks.

I guess you have to flash them with odin..
1. Flash a stock firmware to get you out of bootloop
2. Flash the latest siyah kernel cause it's a touch recovery via odin as well
Do you want me to post the links or will you find it yourself?
I hope this helps, cheers!

I was doing the dirtyracun s-off process and everything went as planned and it was a success. I flashed TWRP recovery and that was a success also. My phone loaded up just fine and then I went to turn off my phone to load it into bootloader and now it won't boot up at all, not sign of charging or anything. Did I brick it?

Always check the md5sum, read the don't panic thread if you need more info on md5 hash sums.
I just rooted a Verizon GS4 (VRUAME7) using this method. Everything went fine. I verified root with Root Checker, rebooted the phone, checked again.
Then I followed this method to install TWRP. When I rebooted the device as instructed, it got stuck on a splashscreen that has and Android logo and says "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!" :'(
The upper left in red says "Could not do normal boot. ODIN MODE"
I tried a battery pull, vol dwn + power, vol up + power and vol down + up + power.
How do I get back to normal boot or into TWRP recovery? I have a ROM I'd like to install, and as of now...it won't get past that splash screen.
What do I do?
Thanks!
First off youre in the wrong section. Questions go in the Q and A section. Second your on the me7 ota and you cant install a custom recovery/roms on the me7 ota. To get your phone booting again you will have to flash the stock recovery (not sure if someone has posted a stock recovery flashable via odin as I havent looked)or flash me7 again.

Also in the 500 or so threads where people freaked out when they couldn't ROM anymore after they took the update.

I already posted how to fix it ............ if you dont know how to restore your phone via odin then you have a small amount of reading to do and then your phone will be back up and running in no time :thumbup:

There are reports of it doing it over night.
To fix the phone find the full me7 Odin package and Odin it back to stock. Id link you but I have had no reason to have links for me7 packages yet.

This worked perfectly.
Hopefully it'll won't fall back into that. Can't wait until I can ROM this sucker. Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag.
Since you have the update, boot the phone up in Odin mode and plug in your USB cable.
If you installed the desktop software you will have a Verizon folder in your start menu.
In that folder there should be an app "Verizon Software Upgrade Utility"
Run that and it should tell you you are up to date.
There is a repair utility within that app, run that and it should fix your problem.
It takes a while because it downloads the rom and then flashes it.
No guarantees, but I believe that will get you back to stock unrooted.

Sounds like he just got into download mode and didn't recognize it, and his rom, recovery, and everything was untouched.
To the OP, you're probably good if your phone has booted normally, works fine, and you're still rooted. You can't flash any roms or mods, but you can still apply some mods by simply pushing them to your /system partition, setting permissions, and rebooting. Either follow the instructions for which directory to put the file/files in, or you can open up a flashable zip and use the same path as the directories in the zip.
You should even be able to push a modded framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and rename the old ones, once people start building ME7 roms, though I can't guarantee it'll work. All you can do is try, and now you know how to get into Download mode to use Odin if it doesn't work.
As far as plain lag goes, just freeze alot of the bloat, there's around 50 apks (in MDK, anyway) that aren't doing anyone any good. Then grab a cpu app like Trickster Mod and see what, if any, parameters the stock kernel enables you to change. If you can set the Interactive cpu governor, Deadline scheduler, Performance gpu governor, and increase the read-ahead size, you should see a significant improvement.
