Your bootloader is unlocked?

Try these commands in bootloader:
Fastboot format userdata
Fastboot format cache
Note that the 1st command will wipe your SDcard.
Strange, my N9 just started doing the same thing. I wonder if it's a hardware problem (like some bad blocks in the flash memory). I've been running AICP without issues for the past 3 months.
I did notice that I can sometimes press the volume up button on the Google screen, and it will then continue on and boot normally.
(Actually, upon further inspection, it appears that just letting my N9 sit at the Google screen for a few minutes, will sometimes get it to boot).
When I have time, I'm gonna try re-flashing the factory image (LMY48I) and see if that helps.
---Update---
Yup, that fixed it. Fastboot flashed all the .img files, and now my N9 starts normally every time.
Gonna go back to a custom ROM when I get a chance. I'll report back if I see this behavior again.

Hi guys,
I was flashing the latest build of DU and my nexus 9 got stuck at google logo. Since then I tried everything possible i.e. factory reset, flashed the latest factory build, tried using the stock kernel along with the factory image, tried flashing paranoid android. Nothing worked. Can anybody help me fix my device? Should I consider it bricked?

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.

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
Installed latest CM10 nightly. Now just sits at boot animation. Attempted to restore. Backups gone. All other ROMS gone for SD card. Can get into recovery, but am lost at that point. Tried clearing cache several times through fastboot. Have no clue how to use adb to sideload. Rate myself as an almost noob. Any help appreciated.

I'm in the same boat, stuck at the CM boot animation. How did you get back to recovery? I hold the power button and the home and back buttons flash and that's it.
Edit: The whole "hold the phone up to a bright light while holding the power button" trick did the job. I was flashing from Android Revolution to CM10.1 and I did perform a factory reset and sideloaded CM through CWM. After another wipe everything worked out fine.
Are you coming from another rom? If so, did you factory reset after flashing ?

Im assuming based on his post he is not coming from another rom and has been flashing CM nightlies regularly and this latest flash was done per routine but is not working for some reason.
I updated the latest 6-23 nightly and its working fine so far, sorry to hear about your issues.

I dirty flashed the latest nightly as well, no issues.
Hi Guys,
I've rooted my S3, and installed PhilZ Touch 5. Then I clear Data/Factory & Cache along with Delvik. I then proceed to install the custom rom from a zip.
It all installs fine, and says it has done so. But when it reboots, it gets stuck on the GalaxyS3 logo, with a little red Exclimatin mark in the top left corner and stays on that screen until I remove battery or reboot into download or recovery mode...
It seems I just can't load the newley installed roms. I've tried multipul, Archidroid, LiquidSmoot, pureLook HD, etc..
Has anyone run into this problem?
Its an Australian S3, so its the International i9300 btw.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Also, is there a way to completely wipe the phone and start from scratch, as I keep seeing ArchiDroid folders in the SD.
To start completely new you can use mega wipe. It will delete anything but the ext sdcard, hence be careful.
Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
Thanks, I'm thinking a MegaWipe would be the best bet, and then start fresh with a custom rom. I need to read more first so I don't screw up the phone..
just to update. the problem was solved with a mega wipe, i installed a new rom, and everything booted normally .
thanksssss
same problem i think except the red exclamation on the corner
Mr. John. i have the same problem now. You removed the battery after being stucked at the logo of samsung right? i wonder, were you able to go back to the home screen after removing the battery? thanks

No, if the phone won't boot after installing a new rom then no amount of battery pulling is going to make it boot.
Flash the super wipe .zip from recovery, assuming you've followed the instructions from your rom chef correctly.
survived the stucked screen

I already escaped the stuck screen. thankfully i have a nandroid back up (and i can still access the recovery mode). i was able to recover my old phone status.
thank you!
I was able to boot into recover & download mode, I was able to flash via odin any custom recovery and boot into it, I was able to wipe the cache/settings & delvik via recovery and then install any rom I liked, I could however not boot into any new/custom rom.
I then ran the MEGAWIPE.Zip in Philz, which I believe wiped some framework or something that was left behind stopping new roms to boot. I then installed a New rom, and it booted right away. No trouble what so ever...
I tried to install a new theme on jasmine rom. I rebooted and phone said updating app, and remained on update app for over 5 minutes.So I rebooted and the phone remained in the jasmine boot screen. I knew I had a problem so i rebooted into recovery, did a complete wipe and installed my backup and rebooted. The phone started to reboot (Lg splash screen) and then stopped. The screen went dark and my red and blue LED lights started blinking. I tried to get back into recovery manually. I was able to get to stock recovery, hit factory reset and instead of going to TWRP, it went back to the black screen and the blinking LED lights. Same results occurred when I hit safe boot.
I also tried to get in DL mode with the volume up button. Instead, the LG splashscreen came on for less than a second, the screen went black and the blinking lights came again. I tried ADB but it won't recognize my phone. Any suggestions, or is this a goner? Thanks for your help.
So to install jasmine you had to have twrp installed. Then you said you booted into recovery and the stock recovery came up and you said yes to factory reset. that scenario of booting into stock recovery and saying yes was only the first time after installing twrp. everytime after that if I choose to boot to recovery twrp screen comes up first. Confused cause I'm nut sure if this is normal behavior with some phones that have been bumped.

If you boot into recovery from the advanced reboot menu, it goes directly to TWRP. However, when you use the hard key combination, it goes to the stock recovery and when you select factory reset, it is supposed to go to TWRP. It doesn't. I have a new phone on the way.
I accidentally took the update from Verizon and when I went to install it I got the same thing. I would get the lg/android bout screen and then it would go to twrp. I tried to reboot, wipe everything and restore back up and nothing changed.
Then I found this post
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...cked-lg-g2-stuck-twrp-no-download-mode-3.html .
This saved me. When in twrp you go to the advanced tab click terminal command, then select. Just follow this directions and you might be golden.
This just worked for me and I didn't have to flash back to stock. I know this says it is for the g2, but it worked. Good luck.

So any idea what exactly went wrong here? How did a basic "theme" apparently completely bork your recovery and brick your phone??

I have no clue what happened; Verizon sent me a new phone. I don't have a clue whether this was related to the theme, or not. It may have been an unrelated hardware issue.
Hi,
First I apologise for not having made a back up of my filesystem, I had grown overconfident from previous successful projects ;-/
I have unlocked the phone and installed TWRP recovery. I then used SUPERSU to root the phone under TWRP. After SUPERSU the phone did not boot, it stayed on the WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED splash for over an hour and did not boot after a reset.
I read through the forums and looked for a kernel to try as I had read that the OS may be damaged, and I wanted to flash a ROM in any case. I read to clean the boot partition before flashing so I did this. The kernel I tried was Squid. This made the phone display "fall through from normal boot mode". So I tried Cyanogen Mod 14, which put the phone on a very rapid bootloop cycle (about every 15 secs), then tried Squid Kernel R22B which put the phone on a long (about 8 minute) bootloop cycle.
Not sure what else I can do. I don't want to give up on the phone as it still mostly works (it has a bootloader, recovery and a file system). I have tried to find a stock ROM to install but proving difficult to track down - links seem to be down)
I apologise if I have got any technical terms wrong. I hope you can help!
Thanks,
Caroline

Assuming you've the Lineage 14 zip in your internal storage or micro sd,. Enter TWRP, select wipe, advanced wipe, check system data cache and dalvik, swipe to wipe. Now you've clean wiped your phone.
Then go "install", select the Lineage zip and flash it.
Hi DroidFreak32, thank you for your help. The phone is now booting for the first time since it's "adventure".
Hi,
Unfortunately the phone is still in the boot logo screen. It stayed on the Lineage logo for 2 hours. I have powered off and rebooted once more, and it is still in the boot logo screen now (1 hour later). I'll wipe and install again and post an update.
Hi,
I reflashed Lineage, same problem. I did notice that each time I installed a zip file, SUPERSU asked me to install it prior to reboot to root the phone and I have always hit Yes. On the final flash, I powered off the phone when it prompted me to install SUPERSU, and the phone booted normally. Very nice design on the mod, I like the way the apps are displayed alphabetically. Good work Lineage Team!
