So yesterday I had rooted my device but i noticed that i couldn't install any app so i decided to try and factory reset it and try rooting it again to see if it would fix it. I then tried factory wipe and reset through CWM and when i went to reboot it was stuck on the boot unloader warning screen. I'm still able to access CWM. i tried resetting to stock firmware but to be honest i don't know which one to download as I'm not sure which one is my stock firmware. I will gladly answer any questions you guys have to help me through this process.
Thanks in advance.

ok im stuck on my boot logo for my motorola droid 2. its a liberty logo, no the original M logo, ive held in x when it starts up and then it takes me to the triangle and then i hold the search button down and then it takes me to a menu saying this:
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
ive already tried just rebooting it and then it does the same thing again and just gets stuck at the boot logo, so please help. thanks!
Have you tried pulling the battery out for about 15 seconds?
See if that clears it up.
with it unplugged and turned off?
Yes Sir. Unlug it and turn it off.
yes i just did that and it didnt work, its still at the boot logo, the only thing i can do is go to that recovery menu that i said about in my 1st post, but idk what to do when i get there?
Try wipe data/factory reset.
Obviously you're gonna have to tweak your settings again.
okay, is there anyway i can get my settings back like a recovery? or something
Well, you might want to head in to the Droid 2 forums to get better responses related to your phone.
Here is a link to start with.
As far as recovery goes, I don't think you have a custom recovery installed. Sounds like you have a stock phone. So, there's no way of backing your stuff up.
i have it rooted and a rom on it but nothing custom, but thanks for all your help

If you have it rooted, did you ever perform a Nandroid backup ?
Do you have a non standard recovery installed?
EDIT: Sorry re-read last few post and come to conclusion that you probably don't.
sorry but doesnt rds lite 4.8 and the correct sbf file let u flash back to stock?
If your phone is rooted then you have changed your kernal.It might be a fault with the kernal.I had a similar thing happen in an SGS.It was rooted and when i flashed the kernal againh via CWM it also got stuck on the same as you.The only way to solve it was boot to download mode and flash via odin again.
Hi Friends,
Model Number - GT-P7510
I recently rooted and installed the CM9 ICS nightly rom using the noob video instructions (This included rooting with Odin, installing CMW recovery 4.0.0.4, then I flashed the ROM cm-9-20120624 Nightly and finally flashed GAPPS-ics).
I over clocked using the CM9 settings and everything worked perfectly for about a week, it was great. Then it just crashed while I was reading my email and began to bootloop. After reading for similar errors I rebooted to recovery and tried wiped the cache and dalvic cache, I wiped data and factory reset several times but nothing worked, always the same bootloop. I re flashed the same ROM and still nothing, after a while the boot screen would simply freeze instead of bootloop.
Then I connected to my PC, and did this to no avail. In fact it simply added to the problem by adding a yellow warning triangle while attempting to boot so I did the Oden thing again like the first time I rooted however I installed CMW version 5.5.0.4 instead thinking it might help but it hasn't.
One last point, when I attempt to wipe data/factory reset the tablet seems to freeze and attempt to reboot rather than say something like "success" as it would during a cache wipe. This maybe normal or it maybe the problem! who knows?
On that point, I would be very grateful if some of you could help get me to the point when my PC recognises the tablet so I can reflash a new ROM.
Thanks in advance,
Karl
I once got the same problem. The only thing that helped was to flash back the stock rom via Odin with the pit file. And don't forget to do a hard reset after flashing the rom. I'll just stick to the stock rom until the official update is getting released.

Questions go in the Q&A section
I think the best way is still to do factory reset, go back to the stock ROM first and try custom HC ROM until the official ICS is released.
Hello all, could use some help here.
I'm trying to restore my Note to the factory ROM and I'm running into an issue.
Fyi, I had the latest Paranoid JB Rom from Oct 13.
I followed the proceedures outlined in the forums (used ODIN to restore the default "attstockrom") and after that restore the phone would loop rebooting into ATT rethink possible animation screen.
I found and downloaded the latest 4.04 rom for the phone (I717UCLF6) and rebooted. Now it just hangs at the "ATT Rethink possible" graphic (no animation, no loop).
Odin does see the device fine so I can reflash again with no problems if I need to. I'm thinking of trying the I717UCLA1 version from Jan to see if that works but I'm hoping I can get some better advice before I do something that might cause more permanent problems.
Any advice on how to get back to stock ICS (or even JB) and get the phone working again?
Thanks!
Try doing a factory data/cache wipe from Recovery.
I flashed the stock rom via ODIN. There is no factory data/cache wipe since there's no custom recovery.
Are you suggesting flashing CWM/TWRP on the phone now then doing that?
Houston we have liftoff. Thanks for the tip Fappa, that got me into the phone (reinstalled cwm, factory reset). However I'd still like to remove CWM and go back to completely stock....
I'm not overly worried about it as I'm selling the phone but I'd like the new owner to have a completely clean phone in case they need to send it in at some point for repair. But in any case it's up and running with CWM and factory ICS rom.

I'm sure fappa meant to use the stock android recovery and wipe. when I go back to stock it always hangs at AT&T boot logo and have to wipe/reset from stock recovery to get it to boot.

Yes do what they say or you will continue to boot loop.

Hi everyone,
I have read this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514088 ) but my situation doesnt match any of the brick states on the OP.
What I did:
1. I successfully unlocked the bootloader with no problems
2. I successfully flashed TWRP and achieved root using the method in the second post of this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2034691 ). I had to use this method because I was already on stock 4.1 firmware
3. I then booted into recovery, did a factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik cache, flashed a cm 10.1 zip and then tried to reboot. When I tried to reboot I got stuck on the splash screen.
The Current Situation:
Whenever I try to start the device I get stuck on the splash screen. I am still able to boot into both TWRP recovery mode and fastboot mode though.
Solution?:
I would greatly appreciate any help you are able to give me. I am hoping that since I can get into recovery and fastboot mode that I am not hard bricked?
Thanks in advance,
Nick
I have an issue with my Desire X I tried to put a different rom on using TWCP but now I cannot do a factory reset and when I tried to get to boot loader I just get TWCP. I can get into the phone but its not working properly.
Is there a way I can factory stock reset it all please, I will need idiot steps to do this as I am new to all this.
Sorry
Did you flashed the TWRP for your device? Because if you have ICS bootloader, the JB recovery won't work. And if you have JB bl, the ICS version won't work, too. Which bootloader version you have?
Anyway, if you can boot into the system, enter the settings and somwhere between the settings you can find a factory reset option. I don't know, under which menu, because it's different in every Android version. But serch for it in the settings, and you will find it. If you want just a factory reset, it will be enough. But if you want to install a custom rom or a mod, you will need a 100% working recovery.
