I unrooted to stock successfully and then tried to upgrade to verizon .16 and from .08 and I'm guessing that because the boot logo was changed when it was rooted and I didn't change it back that it didn't complete, and now boot animation won't show and screen won't turn on. What should I do? This is urgent

Hi everyone
Before 2 weeks I got my Motorola razr XT910 then I root it everything was fine until I change the font on my razr then I didn't like it so I changed it back using Root manger after that it won't stop rebooting it will boot until the vibration on the boot screen then it will reboot again and again …….etc.
So I did a recovery restore (format) then it worked fine until I push the sleep button then it will reboot continually like before I tried everything .
Please your help..
Do you have Safestrap installed? Did you make a backup?

Dude you can try flashing one of those official ROMs at the ROM thread in the development section. Please flash the correct version according to your region.
Thank you all for replaying.
Last night I remembered that I have used razr bootstrap so I restored my last pack up and everything is back to normal.
Dear All,
I am from Hong Kong, and got my asian Razr Maxx for almost 2 weeks now, I have found that I am unable to go back to stock by using motorola's stock factory reset option. Every time I first boot after I "restored" with my device, ADW Launcher EX will be its stock launcher ( i have installed it previously), and that my black multi-touch keyboard is gone. Also, my root would remain.
It just won't go back to how i unwrap it from the plastic wrappings. I tried flashing the asian stock rom though cwm, however it will say "installation aborted" when i tried installing the rom zip from sd card.
I really want to go back to stock, anyone have any idea how I should fix this?

Yep. Just make sure you have full battery before flashing. Because razr battery isn't removable you may get it trouble if you don't follow this way. Good luck

glad i found this thread, i am in deep doodie with my phone. i just got my phone yesterday and had it rooted within the first hour of posession.
its the droid razr maxx, ut updated soon as i got home with it to 6.12.181.XT912, then rooted it on that version using the method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342567.
installed safestrap recovery
performed system backup before doing anything else
flashed eclipse
later realised that my battery wouldnt charge, so i tried to restore the backup of the stock rom........ and thats when everything went to hell!
tried to restore with safestrap in safe mode, no dice
took it out of safe mode, started getting restoration errors, tried to put it back into safemode, and it wont go back into safe mode,
now phone boots and stays stuck at moto logo dualcore technology screen
going to use rsd lite, but dont know what file to download for it because none of the ones provided in the stock rom section look even remotely close to what i need,
does anyone know where i can find and download 6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US
or anything i can do to fix my phone? i cant even turn the damn thing off, when i get it to shut off, it just reboots itself all over again.

you know how to boot into fastboot mode and flashboot mode right? I think your rom is in the following link
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_spyder/list.php
Force a shut down
Power+vol up+vol down till the screen blinks. Release power button and keep holding vol keys. It'll allow u go thru fastboot mode.

My phone wont boot now.
It stays stuck at the 2nd Samsung during the boot up.
What happen was I updated today to offical ICS from my rooted gingerbread.
I updated via kias today to get official ICS, got it working and I noticed I didn't have cwm install anymore, so I followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504218
It is pass it did it reboot thing, and never got past the 2nd "samsung" loading screen.
Anyone know how to get my phone booting again?
Flash the latest ICS kernel
I am not sure how to do that without cwm.
Before I updated to ICS when I press power + up down, it booted into CWM. Now when I do that I boots into Android System Recovery <3e>
EDIT: Good news.
Got CWM through installed though odin and then I restored to my gingerbread backup I made earlier.
Flash your roms via clockwork recovery mod from now on.
Drop the ROM .zip on sd card and then enter recovery. Wipe everything three times each then flash a uclf6 based ROM. Never touch Odin or kies again. Be happy. Ice cream sandwich is way better than ginger bread
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Had the same exact problem. I "believe" the problem was that the CWM I flashed was perhaps incompatible with the official ICS?
I used Odin to flash cwm 5.5.0.4 as suggested and the fone was shut down with the hanging Samsung screen as you mentioned. I used the DL screen with Odin to the 600mb Team Objection ROM, which at least got me up and running again. I found out that CWM did in fact flash once the ROM was compatible with it. Updated CWM, then to finally get full stability, I had to do a factory reset after clearing both caches, then install the CM9 official.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Update: I installed official ICS again last night, looks like I lost my root and CWM.
I don't want to mess anything up again, so could you tell me exactly what CWM file you used to flash so it doesn't hang at samsung again?
I was having the same problems but I think I was doing it wrong. How are you flashing the root files? I upgraded from Kies, then used Odin to flash cwm touch (5.5.0.4 I think), make sure to let the reboot and that it's actually turned on and you can see your homescreen. Once you do that, THEN flash the superuser 3.0.7 in cwm. Let the phone reboot properly and it should be okay.
I was doing the same without the reboots and that's what caused me to hang at the logo, but after the above it worked well. Give it a try. For anyone who needs to flash the T-Mobile radios also let the phone reboot and then flash it because I was having issues with that which was fixed by letting the phone reboot.
Make nandroids at every step in case it does hang so you can just restore and try again instead of flashing everything all over again.

I've also tried rooting my AT&T Galaxy Note I717 which had recently upgraded to ICS via AT&T/Kies and my phone is stuck at the Samsung boot screen. While I'm no expert with rooting phones, I had no problem rooting it when it had GB installed so I figured I wouldn't have any problems rooting it again. Is flashing the ICS kernel the best way to fix this? Where do I get the ICS kernel from and how do I flash it?
Details: After my phone upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 kernel 3.0.8 (IMM76D.UCLF6), I followed some instructions to root it using Odin3-v1.85 and PDA->pda.tar. Other instructions used cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5 and odin_n1717_cwm_recovery_b4.tar and I tried those but to no avail. So I have CWM v5.5.0.4 installed but I don't know what to do next.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Update: I restored my phone back to a non-rooted working Android 4.0.4 by downloading the stock ROM for my phone (I717UCLF6_I717ATTLF6_I717UCLF6_HOME.tar.md5) and uploading it using Odin3-v1.85/PDA. I didn't even lose any of my settings or data. Now I need to figure out how to successfully root it. But at least I'm not worried about getting stuck on the Samsung screen anymore.
Open odin , PDA cwm file, Droid in dl mode, plug in start unplug, reboot, go to cwm recovery mode and backup onto sd card.
Im learning more, as i soft bricked mine last time

You realize the reason you were stuck was because you flashed a GB kernel onto an ICS system? It would never boot. As the second post suggested... all you had to do was flash an ICS kernel to get it to boot.

I hope they go to the page I made and follow the green arrowed how to root ics...it is very super simple process to root the official ics...but ....
This happened to me after misreading a comment.
If you put your phone into download mode, plug it in, run kies, and do an emergency firmware recovery. You'll need the serial number. My phone is stock ICS again. Works fine.

so cwm 5.5.0.4 touch is a GB kernel? Because that's all I flashed after the KIES update to ICS and I got the hanging Samsung logo.
I believe some people are trying to get ICS rooted with this cwm and are getting stuck. Of course there are ways out of it, but it'll help the learning process if we can find the problem.

I recently performed the steps to update my RAZR MAXX (XT-912 CDMA) to the OTA JB update. I had no issues. I obtained Root privileges and installed the most recent version of Safestrap for my phone (3.11). No problems detected. I then booted into Safestrap recovery and created a new ROM slot. Installed Jellycore V1.5 to it as well as Gapps. Booted to that slot and NOTHING. The screen just goes black after the Safestrap screen. So I booted back into Safestrap recovery and tried to restore my backup to that slot...same result. When the phone is rebooted, it goes to the Safestrap screen where you can select continue or recovery. If I continue (by selection or waiting the 10 seconds) the screen just goes black. I left it that way overnight thinking it might take a while but no. I've tried reinstalling Safestrap, different ROMS, and reinstalling ROMS. Any ideas? Because I need my AOKP.

I am also having the issues mentioned in this forum. I rooted the razr maxx, then installed ss 3.11. I tried installing Jellywiz, and cm10.1 and neither worked. I did install the Vzn JB update for my phone before rooting it. Now the phone just does the boot loop and black screen thing. Any ideas?
if you boot to a blank screen and it stays there more than a minute or so after the kexec vibrate, you need to reboot to SafeStrap - switch to stock and boot it (optionally uninstall and reinstall recovery from the SafeStrap app). Then reboot and select your ROM slot and it should boot fine.

Are you wiping cache, dalvik, system, and factory reset after you create the rom slot? I had issues with a few ROMs until I wiped everything before installing a rom to a new slot. Also, you can run into this if you are trying to install a ROM into a ROM slot that had a different ROM installed on it previously. If that is the case just delete the slot and recreate it. (Oh and make sure it is not the stock rom slot that you are deleting, that would not be good) One last thing, some ROMs only work on ROM slot 1.

If you have safestrap installed then your stock ROM is already preserved. Are you trying to revert back to a previous kernel before the JB update?
