So I was able to successfully root my AT&T HTC One X and decided I wanted to install the CM 10 ROM (1st ROM install). I did all the data backups with Titanium, downloaded the latest zip files from cyanogenMod (both the 12/13 and 12/14 nightly versions), transferred them to my phone, booted into recovery (TWRP), did a back-up, did a system wipe, flashed the ROM and then did a reboot. However, when it boots it gets stuck in the boot-up screen (bootloop) and doesn't do anything. I have read on this and it keeps saying to wipe system data again and flash the ROM again and it keeps doing this. I want to install this ROM, but I need some help. Any suggestions on what I did wrong?
Do I need to manually flash the boot.img file or should I only need to transfer the zip to my phone and install after wiping/doing a factory reset?
Well, that didn't work either as the zip file failed completely during install. So I downloaded the latest "stable" version just for giggles and wiped everything again and did an install. Just like before, the install was successful and on reboot it locks up on the boot screen. I am at a loss on what to do.
Hey buddy, i had cm10 running on my HOX, when i did it i had to flash the boot img through fastboot as well.
I found a tutorial on youtube by cursed forever helpful, sorry I'd post a link but my thread counts not high enough yet

So was running an old version of PA 2.16 by Th3Bill and I kept having a problem where Apollo would crash. So I decided I was going to do a clean install of the newest version of PA 2.99 Final. Verify the MD5 and install with the guide on his page here: http://th3bill.com/?page_id=150
Making sure I have the proper CWM Recovery and Aroma Prep installed. At first it took the ROM, but it kept hanging a few seconds after boot and then rebooting infinitely. Tried doing a complete wipe and starting the process over. Now it CWM Recovery locks up and the screen glitches out during the ROM install at 40%. I tried the CM10 ROM it does the same thing. I tried to restore my backup of PA 2.16 and it took the files, but it just looped endlessly. Lastly I tried restoring a backup of a GB ROM and that booted and worked perfectly, but I'd prefer to get back on JB.
Anyone know what could be wrong and where I should start?
So, I was able to successfully unlock my bootloader, got TWRP 2.6 on it, and put a few different ROMs on my machine; however, I have yet been able to install a ROM and get it to move past the boot animation.
I have tried the latest nightly ROMs for CyanogenMod 10.1 and 10.2 for my TF201, both of which get stuck in CM's boot animation. I just tried the same with the newest Baked ROM, only to be stuck in its boot animation as well.
I'm trying to figure out if there was something I forgot to do. I have been able to revert to a backup of my stock Jellybean 4.1.1 that I stored using TWRP, but haven't been able to use anything else.
Are there any thoughts on this? Have I missed something? I was able to use the unlocker utility and each boot offers the confirmation in the top-left that my bootloader is unlocked. I am able to enter TWRP from the recovery mode. Shouldn't it be as simple as selecting a ROM's zip archive and installing it from TWRP?
Have you done a full wipe before installing, including cache and dalvik cache partitions?

Try installing twrp 2.5. AS I just read in another thread there are problems with 2.6..

Factory reset
After flashing CM 10.1 nightly last night i had the same issue. I booted into my recovery console (flatline cwm) and performed a factory reset. This seemed to clear whatever issue was bothering the tablet. Still sat there for about five minutes on the animation after the reset but then progressed into setup.
Doubt if it makes a difference but mine was connected to the dock too.
If you're still stuck the method that worked for me yesterday was:
Used Flatline CWM as the recovery, installed using fastboot
Used an external memory card to copy the relevant zip files to my sdcard, recovery couldnt find them otherwise using adb push
Installed from zip using Flatline CWM
Installed gapps using Flatline CWM
Booted, got the issue you had
Booted into recovery, performed a factory reset
Told recovery to restart the machine
Booted into setup screen after loading for a few minutes
I installed cyanogenmod on my HTC One X+. It's really slow now, so I would like to install another ROM. I tried installing another ROM but it gets stuck on the booting screen everytime. I just installed my backup again, so my phone does work again. How do I install another ROM? I figured out I need to flash another image or something. I can't find a good tutorial on how to do this for a specific ROM and with updated files, because I understood from various forums that I need a newer image if I want to install another ROM?
Thank you.
flash boot.img which is in your rom.zip (you have to do this on every rom-update and wipe dalvik cache and cache after this)

I was using my phone and all had been working fine for ages. It was in my pocket for a while and when i took it out to use it I saw that it was on the boot animation of CM11. My phone was already on when I last used it so I had assumed it had crashed. I took the battery out and turned the phone on again but it got stuck on the CM boot animation. The last time I turned on my phone before that was when I flashed a supersu zip file to make my root work as I was having some problems. After flashing the supersu zip and told my CWM recovery to restart the system, it prompted me to "fix root" or something like that, and I clicked yes and it booted normally. That was the last time it booted normally before being stuck as it is now. First thing I did after it got stuck was go into recovery and reflash my current rom ( a CM11 snapshot) I then got faced with a status 7 error and so couldnt flash the rom. So then I flashed multiple other CM11 roms, none of which worked, so I flashed a CM10.2 stable rom which worked. I then got faced with the fix root before reboot thing and so I clicked yes. Still had the stuck booting thingy. I tried many things, flashing kernals roms gapps etc and nothing made a difference. I wiped cache, dalvik cache and no difference. I even wiped the system and tried to flash roms but only the 10.2 one would work, still got a status 7 with the CM11 ones. When I wiped my data however and flashed CM 10.2, it booted. I still couldn't flash the CM11 roms though even after a factory reset. So I have the reason to believe something in the data is wrong, not cache system or anything like that. What could it be? I don't want to have to lose all my data in order to be able to use my phone again, even then, something is still wrong as my phone won't flash CM11 roms anymore. So my questions are;
What things could have caused this?
Can this be a problem from flashing the supersu zip (a root issue)
Is it possible to somehow view or copy the internal data on a computer (since I cant get into the operating system), and this would allow me to get all my pictures contacts music etc anything so I can use my phone by wiping data?
Thanks, sorry this is quite long and probably hard to understand whats going on, but help is appriciated thanks
Don't fix root if you wish to use SuperSU instead builded-in cm superuser. Also try to flash via Odin latest recovery. TWRP should be fine. You can mount partitions from recovery level to download data to your computer. Of course if it still exists. If not, if they are corrupted you need to flash stock ROM and repeat whole cm11 adventure again. If Odin successfully flash the stock then it's a chance your partition layout and user data are untouched.

I was using the Nightly ROM and when i tried to flash an update, my NEXUS 9 went into a boot loop(I had lost root earlier). I was able to go into recovery but even after flashing the lastest zip, had the same bootloop problem. SO i decided to flash an updated SU hoping to get back root privelages. and reflash Nightly, G apps and SU. Still bootloop (Overnight)
After all this i did the mistake of doing an Advanced Wipe which wiped all the data on the device. When I go into recovery i get the "Keep system read only message"
Unable to load any ROM or Flash it. Please help.
Trying to use fastboot to load the factory image
At the moment , trying to flash in the factory image for the NEXUS 9 to restore the system , boot.

You have to select not to keep system read only. If you're having trouble flashing the factory image, try using wugfresh nexus root toolkit. It's here in the forum. It installs on PC and it downloads and flashes everything for you. It has some great features.

I am currently having the same issue. I am using wugfresh toolkit. to get it back to stock and start over. Don't know why it is not wanting to read data. Never had this issue until today. It looks like wugfresh saved the day.
