Just flashed the houstonn's AT&T version, coming from V03. Followed instructions:
MANDATORY
CWM - v14.4.5 (i personally use this 1) / v14.4.6 / v14.4.7
factory reset / wipe
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
format system
install rom
enjoy!
Phone does not boot. Sticks at the LG logo.
Do I have to LGNPST back to stock? Is there a key combo to get into recovery?
Took the sd card out, put it in fastboot, then hit power button, and it booted into CWM. Popped sd card back in, and restored to my original stock backup.
Perhaps my download of houstonn's ATT was corrupted?

I'm working with my new (from woot) Viewsonic G Tablet.
I managed to flash clockwork recovery (v .8) with little to no trouble. However, I am having some difficulty flashing a custom ROM. I have tried several different versions, including many of the ones posted on this forum.
Whenever I try, clockwork says that the install completed, but when I reboot it hangs at the Viewsonic bird-logo screen. After about 25 minutes I give up, reboot. It happens again. I reboot into clockwork and restore to stock and it works fine. I don't think I'm missing a step, but I'm pleading for help.
From clockworkmod -- Wipe Data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache. Repartition sdcard to 2048 and 0. The repartition will format your user partition, so back up any data to an external source that you don't want to lose.
Re-flash ROM of choice, hopefully boot all the way, if not then try wiping data again after flash and then fix permissions from clockworkmod.
I'll give it a shot!

No luck.
My steps:
1) Shut down
2) Boot into recovery (hold the vol+ and power)
3) Wipe data/factory reset
4) Wipe cache
5) advanced, wipe Dalvik
6) advanced, partition sdcard 2048, 0
7) mount usb, copy rom & gapps over (both from xda with reports of success)
8) install zip from sd (CorwinCM7RC4Beta.zip)
9) install zip from sd ( gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip)
10) re-wipe data
11) rewipe cache
12) rewipe dalvik
13) fix permissions
14) boot & freezes at the birds

Can you flash a stock rom like 3588 and see if that boots?
Stock roms are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000
They have to be flashed with stock recovery, not clockworkmod.
I would probably use nvflash to get a working stock image on it first. This thread for those instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
Nvflash bekit's images then flash 3588 through the stock recovery, and you'll be back to latest stock image. Then you might have success with the custom ROM again.
Some tabs had a slightly different partition structure, mine was one of them. I nvflashed bekit's originals and it straightened out some things for me back in December.
It seems like a lot to do, but you may only need it once. I've only needed to use it twice since owning the Gtab, and the second time was by choice.
Having similar issue on the batch recieved from woot. Stock and Vegan 5.1x works but everything else gets stuck at the viewsonic birds screen.
I have no idea why. I'm going to try to do the old nvflash push method of installing cw .8 bekit today, since on the two I had in my possession this weekend got stuck and I used the install via recovery on cw .8 on them.
(btw. My original tab loads any rom(g-tablet) i want to throw at it, I used nvflash in december so it's the only thing i can think of)
Model on the tabs from woot is upc300-2.2 so yeah I am baffled (unless it turns out the way cw .8 installs....)
I just flashed THS cm9 build 10 over build 9 on my fascinate, with CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4, before I flashed it I wiped cache & dalvik-cache.. and now when I try to boot it goes straight to recovery.
Is there anything I can do? or do I have to do a full wipe & start over?
edit: I wiped data, and re-flashed the zip and it still keeps rebooting into recovery. I guess I'll try restoring to stock, and then re-flashing THS build 10
edit 2: UGH..I wiped my data for nothing. At least I have a who-knows-how-old titanium backup of my apps. After I wiped data and it still would not work, I found "fix ics fascinate recovery boot loop" on google. I entered download mode for some reason by accident, and then I did the 3-finger-recovery. >_< so anyway I heimdall'ed a CWM from a Vanilla GB rom, and it's all fixed now.
Section 9: How to get out of a bootloop situation on cm9 mtd based roms without using odin!!
-Power device off, pull sd card, and push a cm7 based rom(see section 3 for link) to the sd card via your PC, then reinstall the sd card on your device
-three finger into recovery
-wipe data
-flash cm7 and and it will bootloop back into recovery
-flash cm7 again, then let it boot
-boot into recovery via power menu
-wipe data
-flash ics build 2 and let it boot
-boot into recovery again via power menu
-wipe data
-flash ICS rom of choice and gapps, reboot
I was on a JB ROM that was starting to get sluggish for whatever reason. I just learned of Helly Bean ROM. I find the link on rootzwiki and download it and copy it to my phone's SD card. I press/hold power choose reboot and choose recovery. I know not to 3-finger boot to recovery in this stage so I use the ROMs reboot to recovery option. I make a backup of the current ROM. I then wipe dalvik, wipe cache, and finally i wipe data (factory restore) same as I've done a million times before. I choose install Zip from SD card choose the zip, the phone begins to install the ROM cuz I can see the little blue bar start and suddenly BAM! the damn phone reboots and stays stuck on the stupid SAMSUNG logo! WTF? I donwloaded the right ROM for the Fascinate and I didn't see any errors on the screen. The phone just reboots and stays stuck!
**** it! I'm going back to my Incredible.
odin back to stock and start over...if you need instructions click on the link in my sig!
Hey,
First off i hope i have put this on the right sub forum.
I've been stupid (I Think) I've olso looked around on the forum and the [READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!
topic.
I'm using my SGS2 for a year now and was using the ressurexionRimix rom for a while.
I've been plaing around with my phone so i got lots of folder that were not used etc, so I wanted to get it back to factory settings, here is when all went down.
Via Settings-Backup and recovery i gave my phone a factory reset (while using the latest ressurexionremix rom, i think this is the misstake i made) When my phone went into the reboot is got stuck on the splash screen, it kept reapeeting the boot animation.
The second mistake i mad was not puting back my back-up but thought well i want it back to it's first state so i'll use ODIN to flash the stock ROM onto it. now, 4 hours later and about 10 trys with diferent versions of the stock roms i'm still stuck on the boot screen.
I've also tryd flashing a cwm so i could get in cwm recovery, this also without any luck
Does anyone have a idea what to do!?
go back to recovery - mounts andstorage and format the following :
cache, system, data, sdcards if you have it in recovery. reboot
you have a bkank screen as your phone has been wiped. reboot into download mode.
Connect odin and flash a stock rom. reboot and your phone should work provided that you have not damaged the flash chip on the motherboard.
Is this in CWM? the problem is i dont have that anymore because i've flashed it toc stok. I now get in the Android system recovery
The option i get there ar:
Reboot system now
apply update from external storage
Wype data/factory reset
Wipe cache parition
apply update from cash
test redbend fola[FS]
Will try this, thank..will let you know if it worked
Wiped data/factory reset and cache after this i ebooted my phone and i got the message installing application, now i'm in the setup menu. Looks like it is working.
Did'nt realice there was a recovery besides CWM Thank yoy so much Cosmic Blue!!! You saved my life!!
This i9100g doesn't belong to me. It belongs to a friend..
Here's what he told me he did:
1)Did an OTA update to the GB stock ROM
2)Phone restarted and got stuck at the logo. (It was that way when I got the phone from him)
What I did to try and fix it:
1) Flashed a ClockWorkMod Recovery kernel (GT-I9100G_ICS_ClockworkMod-Recovery_6.0.1.2.tar) using ODIN
2) Data wipe .. Cache wipe .. Wipe /system /cache /data...Wipe Dalvik
3) Flashed CM10 (cm-10.0.0-i9100g)
4) Reboot System. It didn't work.
So again,
2) Data wipe .. Cache wipe .. Wipe /system /cache /data...Wipe Dalvik
3) Flashed CM9 (cm-9.1.0-i9100g.zip)
4) Reboot System. Things don't work out yet again.
Here's what happens:
Phone shows the exclaimation mark at boot along with the initial logo and goes directly into CWM recovery
I think this is because I am on a GB bootloader. How do I get an ICS bootloader? Is it safe to flash the stock ICS Rom over CM10 i.e., to follow this guide without messing things up (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619571). Is there something that can be done apart from this to get CM10 working?
