I really hope someone can help me out with this, ota update resulted in a bootloop. I proceeded to follow a forum post to flash twrp and ended up with it on my boot partition. Proceeded to try to fastboot update but kept getting memory errors. Finally got lineage 13 to push to internal and flashed successfully but now no sound from speaker, tried resurrection remix too with same result.
I'm thinking that my fastboot attempts have corrupted a partition somewhere and I need to somehow flash the whole stock firmware, just don't know how! Help please!!

Hi.
After the last CM11 update my phone was stuck in boot loop. That made me search for method of fixing it - nothing of usual methods did work. Wipping everything, installing new kernel and CM. So I went for NAND Erase All and repartitioning, I do have fresh phone. Even without a recovery, only the boot loader mode. I cannot install any system from here - it goes to boot loop once again. Could please someone help me to install the system from the scratch, so it works? Could be Cm, could be stock, could be experimental CM12. Just make it work for me please
Try the rescue firmware in general thread but you may have deleted your efs folder -which will require a repair centre.
Couldmyou please link any source educating me on what is this folder? Also, it is worth mentioning, the recovery cannot mount anything from internal memory of phone. I am going to give a go to rescue firmware and post results soon. Thanks for the answer
Turns out the problem is internal SD card of phone. It does not mount, which I guess is a reason for all boot loops I experienced. What do I do with it? Tried CWM and TWRP recoveries, none work.
Hello all,
I have this S6 Edge OFJ 5.1.1 thats stuck in bootloop, dont know the history of it or what somebody tried to do.

Why don't or can't you flash any rom specific to your variant in TWRP that you now have?

But whenever it boots to recovery it doesnt show any options and stuck in bootloop..
sometimes it hangs at samsung logo and sometimes it restarts.
Hi there, i'm writing this in hopes of someone reading it who give me some pointers.
i was running for the last years on CM 10.2.1 but i thought it was time for an update. update to CM 11.2 worked but my installed apps were making some weird troubles so i decided to do a factory reset and there my trouble started.
i flashed to boot.img in fastboot, cleared cache with fastboot cmd
format \system, \data, \cache and of course dalvik
flashed rom CM 11.2 (from official cyanogenmod site) via recovery sideload
rebooted and as my thread title says was stuck on CM boot sequence
i tried different CM roms, but always the same result. system wont end the bootup.
i even suspected a problem with CMW v6.0.4.8 and flashed TWRP from the CM 12.1 thread here in the forum.
so in short i can flash boot.img, recovery, different roms but in the end can't get it to work.
i would really appreciate some hints what i could do differently or maybe were i go wrong.
if you need more info i'm happy to supply them to you.
Thanks in advance.
solved by installing a TWRP backup and boot.img what i found on a german android site.
i was also able after that to install CM 12.1 unofficial and its running now. but i'm totally stumped what caused this weird problem to begin with. doesn't really matter now, i'm relieved it worked in the end.
I got out of the phone mod life about a year ago..
but one of my friends is going through some financial stress and needs a phone.. i had a Sprint M9 sitting here for about a year.. So i decided i'd try to unlock it so he could use it.
Needless to say i'm a little rusty and a lot of things have changed
I asked Stifilz to help with the unlock and he directed me to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-one-m9/general/nv-unlock-sim-t3314755
I needed to get the MSL, so I attempted the root following this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/guide-root-install-twrp-htc-one-m9-t3061133
Everything went smoothly with the instructions.. only problem is that I am now stuck in a bootloop of the HTC boot screen with the red writing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
firmware? boot.img? new rom?
Hi.. phone has been sitting down collecting dust since the last post.. a friend needs a phone so I'm trying to get it working to give it away.. anyone have any solutions for this?
I am willing to pay to get this resolved.
Hold power button and volume down button at the same time and boot to recovery. Can you get into twrp recovery?

Hi? I'm in same situation. From stock, I didn't follow any particular tutorial. I used my knowledge from HTC m8. I unlocked bootloader, flashed latest twrp for m9, flashed latest supersu zip. And that's it. Boot loop afterwards. I flashed supersu via OTG Drive. Could that be an issue? Phone is still S-ON
UPDATE: I some how wiped cache, dalvich, data and system partition in twrp now it says I have no OS installed. I think I wasn't supposed to wipe system partition? How to get back to phone plz? Could you Point me to a restore file or stock HTC file I can restore with adb or twrp? I didn't make a backup before I started the whole thing.
Grab stock rooted rom from development thread n flash that. Should be good after that

yes. i got it fixed. open the zip file of the ROM you were trying to flash, look for the boot.img file and flash it with adb. problem is with the boot image of stock rom. it somehow doesnt boot propely after root

Hi all,
I tried to root my ohone using this walkthrough:
https://romprovider.com/sony-xperia-xzs-root-twrp/#Download
I managed to unlock bootloader and then flash everything it said without any errors but then the phone wont boot past the sony start screen. Ive been trying to flash back a stock ROM. Used "emma" and flashed firmware it offered in program. It said successful but still wont boot.
Can anyone please spell out how I resolve this in layman terms? Im pretty good with PCs but the language around rooting and these instructions are always a bit unclear to me being a noob to this.
I cant boot to TWRP on the phone just not the OS. Have tried clearing cache and resetting through twrp..
Thanks for any help!
Boot into TWRP and wipe data partition. If it still doesn't boot then try this guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/xzs/how-to/tutorial-step-step-guide-to-gain-root-t3612624.

Thank you. Wiping the data partition didnt work. I haven't had luck with the flash tool in that walk through either. When I download latest version from link it is a version that doesn't have Xperifirm built in. I downloaded xperifirm seperately but when I try any of the roms it downloads it fails with an error about missing sin or something like that. I will check the error again. Thanks
OK seems I have a stable phone again after using emma again and managing to load properly. Will do the twrp and root parts again. Also I think I botched the back up step in that link. Im going to follow it again.

Thanks
Now the phone boots after loading magisc and drm but the wifi wont work. It wont allow me to toggle it on.
Any suggestion on where I went wrong or how to restore wifi?
Success!!!
