I installed pacman rom yesterday and had no issues, today my screen wont turn off. It wont time out, and not even if i hit the power button. the only thing I am yet to try is a reflash.
Just wipe your caches and reflash the rom, should work.

I agree with REALLY NOW, just a few more details from my habits.............
do your 3 wipes
flash rom alone (don't boot)
wipe Davlik & Cache
flash rom a 2nd time with Gapps this time
wipe D&C again
then boot
let it settle that 10 minutes.................
reboot again and set up
just my anal obsessive habits................
never fails me for a solid install

Just got a new EvoLTE, it's rooted, unlocked, S-Off and has TWRP. I wiped the cache and the Dalvik and tried to install Paranoid Android. My phone boots up to the Rom Logo but is stuck. Am I missing something? How do I boot into recovery since this phone doesn't have a removable battery?

Hold the power button down until it does a hard shut down. Then hold volume down and power and it should put you into hboot and give you the option to select recovery.
Once in recovery you will want to wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache X3 (just what i do)
then do a factory reset and system reset
Than flash rom and see how that goes.
Worked like a charm. Thanks a bunch.

NP! Glad I could be of assistance!
Okay, ran into the same issue trying to install a battery mod. Stuck on the boot animation again. Dow I wipe x3 and try to re-install the mod do I have to start from scratch again?

Did you flash battery mod from sense on aosp rom? If yes, then you have to start from scratch. You have to be more specific on what mod you flashed. You have to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing any mod.

Hi guys.
Been trying to figure this our for hours.
I flashed AOSPxXx-ICS-20121111 on my phone but not it runs brutally slow. It takes a like 30 seconds to launch apps.
I followed this steps.
booted to cwm
wiped user data
wiped cache
wiped dalvik cache
install rom
rebooted
let it sit for 10+ mins
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Wipe all of the above, plus the system partition.
I cant confirm that the new rom wipes the system partition for you, but if not, then you dirty flashed.
that will cause all kinds of trouble.
Also, did you add any mods like a new kernel ?
I ultimately suggest a new full wipe, and flash. and even a new download of the rom to ensure a clean build.
Sometimes they arrive all borked up....g
Rewipe reflash nd if persist reboot a couple times sometimes it can be slow after aa flash give a couple of reboots nd itll snap too

What else did you flash? Theme, modem,??
Just wipe and re flash. Don't restore apps, get them from the market.
All I did was flash a new rom, nothing else. I will try again =)
ok i finally got it to work. used odin and restored ics 4.0.4 =)
So I just restarted my phone after doing nothing particular and it just will not boot. It gets to the Samsung screen with the Unlocked Lock that says 'Custom' and it just freezes there. I pulled the battery and boot again, nothing. I booted into recovery and wiped it all and re-flashed the bebloated ROM, still won't boot. Anyone have any other suggestions???

sounds stupid, but try whiping it like 2-3 times in a row and then reboot
Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301259 and let us know. I have the very same issue with my phone but ended up giving up and getting verizon to replace it but would really like to know if this works.

Take out the SD card and try a reboot...if that doesn't work.....its odin time.
did you pull the battery for 10 seconds and retry?
same problem
I have the same problem. The only rom I can boot is slim bean.
i have had this happen to me and the only way i was able to fix was to odin back to stock grab this

Hey guys, sorry it took so long for me to get back. After 3 wipes I was able to get everything back to stable and it has not locked up like that again. Thanks for all your suggestions, I may need them again someday haha.
damn
basically have the same problem but i have a stock rooted backup in twrp... (which i have to restore once a day).... every time the phone dies or or battery comes out, there no way of starting without wipe and restore, and even then it doesn't let me boot into twrp until a few tries also once in a while my twrp asks for a password, which ive never put on.. so anyways if theere are any new suggestions id be happy to try them out
Howdy partners, not sure if I should have started my own thread...let me know if that is proper procedure please. I've already read the recent boot loop thread by vlmaadir t=2558286, but I'm unsure as to the applicability of the solutions in that thread to my problem.
I'm in a similar situation as the vlmaadir, except I've been running the most recent stock ROM (UCMD8) and have rooted via framaroot and flashed the AJKv4.9 - NoSwap Kernal successfully around 12/5/2013. Of course I've yet to do a backup of the OS or apps, but pics/vids/contacts were all recently backed up.
About two weeks ago I started noticing random reboots, but wasn't really sure what to make of that, never any boot looping though. Well this morning the phone was working when i woke (phone alarm raised me from the dead on time) and had approx. 70% battery, but by the time I got to work, the phone had apparently powered off.
When I powered it back on, it took a several minutes to boot up (normally around 45sec-1min), once booted the battery showed about 10-15% (in the red). The few apps I opened worked (naked browser, outlook), but were a bit laggy. I decided to restart the phone from the regular power menu to see if that would help the laggy/battery issue, and upon restart I am now solidly stuck in my 1st android boot loop!!!
I can boot into CWM recovery, but have yet to do any wiping as I wanted to seek a bit of advice here 1st.
If anyone has any pointers, I'm listening.
Thanks!
I would 1st try a wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache from cwm recovery and see if it will reboot.
If it doesn't then u will probably have to wipe data/factory reset from cwm recovery and then reboot.
If ya have been runnin good for a while with AJ's kernel, then a rogue app may be the cause of ur problem.
R u tweakin anything in the kernel through stweaks apk ?

If I have to go wipe data/factory reset, should i have to re-flash the rom and kernel?
I've been running the AJK for about a month, no tweaks. Like I said in the OP, I had noticed some random reboots in the past few weeks and at some point over Christmas day, when I was doing a good bit of pic/video work on my phone, it came up with a message that the internal storage memory was low. I knew this wasn't the case, at least as far as the entire internal memory, which had around 3 gigs free. Just a few strange things I've noticed since having AJK in place.
Are there any other good kernels for stock 4.1.2? AJK seemed to be the go-to of main stock and custom ROM folks.
I did a cache wipe, but when I enter the dalvik wipe confirm menu, the output shows
E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
and when I confirm yes, wipe dalvik, the screen goes black, then the phone restarts into the boot loop.
Any one know what is up here?
^^
Doing and wipe data/factory reset in the cwm recovery will just return the Stock MD8 to just full stock, as if u first installed it through Odin or att official, Except u will still have the AJ kernel. There is no need to reflash the rom as u say.
But if u cannot find an app that is causing the problem, then a complete Odin flash to Stock MD8 should help in the troubleshooting.

The "E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]" is the norm from what i remember.
But not sure why choosing to wipe dalvik cache resulted in a bootloop.
Have ya tried the wipe data/factory reset yet ?
Just did a wipe data/factory reset and I got out of the boot loop! Now I just have to set the phone up like I had it once again! Boo!
Thanks for the input 4-2!!!
Glad ya got it going. :good:

Just flash the rom again without wiping anything. The same rom that you had when all this happened. Not any other. Let it boot up. Give it 10 minutes at least. Try and report back.

lol, nothing has happened, dnt panic, just boot into recovery manually by pressing power and volume+ buttons. Flash the the same rom firmware, wipe dalvik cache and Reboot, give it 10-15mins.. if this doesnt works then wipe everything(except storages).. then flash rom.
lol.
Calm down buddy. If you can get to your recovery flash the ROM you were using. If it was MiUI, flash lazyflasher/universal boot.img patcher after flashing the preferred MiUI ROM.
Flash another kernel which doesn't support gpu_governor, or wipe data.
Ok well thanks everybody for your help I have now found a twrp backup restore data and i am now up and running again aaahhhh!
Lol I bricked my phone so many times, i can't even remember. It would be very shameful if my parents would find out about that...but then again...it is my phone, bought it with my own money.
