[Q] Boot Loop after cm rom flash on SS - Motorola Droid RAZR

my xt912 is in boot loop after flashing Dhacker's cm11 alpha build (in razr dev forum, I cant post there yet)
I used matts utility to full wipe and reinstall ota and root, then installed Hashcode's Safestrap 3.65, booted into recovery created 2gb partition in romslot1, flashed cm-11-20131122-UNOFFICIAL-spyder.zip. and gapps-kk-20131120-no_set_metadata.zip (also tried PA gapps 4.4), wiped cache and dalvik.
It shows boot animation and "android upgrading" then shows cm startup screen then reboots and shows boot animation, then reboots, etc.
Ive tried rerooting, downloading all files (incl. ss), reinstalling ss , recreating romslot1, reflashing all files, fixing permissions.
I don't know where to go from here. does anyone have any advice?
I know since its an alpha build any problems are possible, but there has been a lot of success with this build according to the posts in the dev forum, and id post there if I could,
thanks in advance
Edit: deleted and recreated romslot1, flashed cm 10.1.3, booted, put the cm11 zip in the cmupdater folder and installed it via cm updates in settings, flashed gapps 4.4 and it successfully booted. I guess this is good for now.

[Q] Need Help with Installing ROM (CM 10) on HTC One X

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

[Q] Can't install any JB ROM

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?

[SOLVED] ROMs fail to boot

Hi,
I am starting from rooted stock with emmc CWM v5.0.2.8
As always before flashing any ROM I backup, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe dalvik cache.
I have tried flashing SlimBean, LiquidSmooth, CyanogenMod unofficial, and CyanogenMod nightly; all with the same result.
Cyanoboot comes up just fine, then it proceeds into the ROM boot animation, sometimes it displays the boot animation for a few seconds,freezes then loops, others it just loops.
I have tried flashing "flashable_fix_bootloop.zip"
I have also tried flashing from CWM 6.02.7 but that recovery for me is very laggy and cannot access sdcard
I am really confused I would love for my tablet to be on jellybean the stock B+N is terrible
Any help is much appreciatted,
thatsnailguy
You could always do what I describe in the topic that at this moment is right below yours. Not the most elegant, but almost fool proof! The CM10 I use is better than any 10.1 I have tried. Either way, it's better than stock.

To flash CM10 you need a newer version of CWM v6.x.y.z. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123 for more pointers.
If you still cannot boot past the boot-animation try flashing Succulent's fix flash_kernel_acclaim_30MAR2013_HD.zip at posted at http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/02/18/cm10-1-jellybean-android-4-2-2-for-nook-tablet-0218/ (under the heading "Flash this if your NT doesn’t boot newer kernel").
Thank you apparently I downloaded a wrong version of a 6.x.x.x cwm its all working now.

AOSP 4.3 boot issues

I've been having a problem getting any 4.3 ROM to boot after the initial boot. I've seen a few other people with the same problem and I can't figure out a fix. Thought I'd ask the general Q&A.
I've used Beanstalk and Carbon (great ROMs) a few carbon 4.3 nightlies and Beanstalk 4.3.00. I installed their 4.3 builds (after checking sums to verify download) flash gapps, wipe cahce/dalvik and boot up. Set up goes great and rom runs great. but even without installing any other apps, using no backups or anything if I reboot it sticks on samsung screen and can't get past it. Every time, I even rebooted without finishing setup and wouldnt advance past samsung.
I even flashed 4.3 rom and gapps, let it reinstall apps from market then booted to recovery and made a backup. Then could'nt reboot. But if I wipe and restore the backup it will boot fine the 1 time, but again any attempts to reboot stick on samsung screen. Wiping cache/dalvik from recovery does not help, fix permissions from recovery does not help.
Anybody have this problem and find a fix?
Ok, I tried slim bean beta 2, no luck, tried ktoons kernel, no luck. Guess I'm staying with 4.2.2 until there is some movement on this issue.

Can't run Paranoid Android 5.1

Hello guys,
I have problems running latest official PA for GT-I9300 (Int'l).
After wiping dalvik, cache, system and data I installed rom zip and gapps zip and rebooted. Phone automatically rebooted me to recovery (TWRP 2.8.5.0).
Again I wiped everything installed rom zip and now I tried installing boeffla kernel 3.1 CM12 NG and gapps zip. After rebooting I see installing apps and when it completed all my applications forceclosed and phone rebooted. Now I keep getting optimizing apps and when it completes phone just reboots.
I tried doing same thing but with leanKernel AOSP v5.1 but I get same thing as installing no kernel.
I appreciate any kind of help. If you need more information just ask.
Thank you.
Official Paranoid is the only LP-ROM for S3, which doesn't boot with build-in kernel. So don't expect anything from that and take Gokulbalram's Inofficial.
