[Q] Won't boot, worked fine, then bootloop, now it freezes (using CM9 ICS Nightly) - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Galaxy tab bootloop???

I've been running AOKP Milestone 6 for about 2 months now. It always had a problem unlocking the lockscreen at full battery as it didn't receive touch input so I just restarted the tablet. Then it would just reboot as the tablet would not turn off if the power button was held. I dont care. Dont turn it off enough for that to make a difference.
Well one day I woke up turned on the tablet and like normal there was no touch recognition. Oh well reboot like normal. Then my tablet stuck in the AOKP animation. It just froze. About halfway through the animation. I used the hard reboot (vol- and power) and it froze again at about the same place. I WTF and go to CWM and reflash the ROM and it froze at applying data. Hard reboot. Flash Galaxy Task. Freeze at applying data. Flash a backup I made on AOKP milestone 6. Froze at applying data. Plug into computer and flash stock root package. SUCCESS!! Then the AOKP boot animation comes up and freezes at the same place as before. I have no idea what to do as I decided I would flash 1 ROM and leave it on my tab because I've hard bricked my infuse before and didn't want to send this in have it come back broken and buy a new one.

I'm Running 4.0.0.4. Wasnt planning on flashing a lot of ROM so flashing that would be not so important to me. Checking that site out now.
I noticed I forgot to mention it's a wifi model. will update OP.
This currently happen to me too.
Will try to find 3g stock Rom and try to upgrade CWM

I am currently having this problem too.
It all started when my wifi started not working so I rebooted my tablet. Suddenly im stuck in a bootloop with no way to get out of it.
I'm able to access CWM and have tried wiping cache, but that didnt work. Now i've tried wiping /data but it freezes.
I'm unable to access my USB as it repeatedly says "E:unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory).
I've tried using ADB to push a new flash image which worked but im still stuck in a brand new bootloop (presumably because i cant wipe /data).
Can anyone help? I have NO idea how this happened.
Flash a stock ROM using Odin in download mode...now that you are in such trouble flashing a 3G ROM doesn't make much difference...

[Q] Trying to restore to ATT stock, locks at ATT "rethink..." screen

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.

installing liquid v2.9 issue

I have a sch-i500 that is rooted with cwm working.
I am very interested in running liquid smooth v 2.9 found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245120
so I did a format, wiped the cache and davlik. when I installed the zip from external sd card the phone immediately gave me a screen for CWM v 6.0.3.3.
I can still navigate and restore old back ups but the phone does not go past the Samsung logo on the boot screen. Any advice is appreciated.
I was previously running stock 2.3.5 E09 if that helps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026746

Oh so close.
When coming from 2.3.x ROM you will need to flash the rom (liquid: or other 4.2.x) you will need to flash 2 more times...
The 1st flash get you into the new recovery only,,, as you found out.
2nd flash will pop up with an error message about incompatible partition and telling you to re-flash again,,,
So 3rd flash actually installs your new ROM
Then install a current/compatible Google gapps
.
Enjoy

Thank you, I am getting closer.
still on the second and third flash of the rom I get a satus 7 error which I think is a bootloader issue.
I have flashed the GBbootloader.tar through odid to no avail and am following Section:4 How to flash any ICS 4.0.x & 4.x.x JellyBean based rom

what does the error say besides status 7?
did you odin the CWM4 fixed for cm7 then install the ROM 3 times?
can you get a pic up for us to see?
just to be sure......using odin, I repartitioned with the pit, and flashed a E03 rom. rebooted the phone fine.
flashed the CWM4 fix for 7 and redid the GB bootloaders as well.
went into recovery and factory reset, wiped cache, and dalvik.
installed liquid-JB-v2.7-Official-fascinatemtd.zip this time first time took me directly to clockwork where I flashed again. prompted with install from sdcard complete. repeated and got same message.
factory reset, wipe, wipe and flashed gapps. Everything seems to have worked this time with the v2.7Official instead of 2.9. I will play with this for just a bit and probably try it again tonight with a fresh downloaded copy of v2.9. I really do appreciate your assistance and help and I would not have gotten this far without the forum.
update:
flawless installation of v2.9 since 2.7 was already installed. (installed via cloclwork mod recovery)
It was most likely an operator error that prevented me from installing 2.9 after E03. But I don't see the benefit of going back to recreate why it didn't work. Thanks again all is good and right.

[E4GT Galaxy s2] Pacman rom stuck on amination screen!!

Hello i am a newbie here. I recently installed Pacman rom the released version to my epic 4G touch galaxy s2 and it worked flawless. [[[How i installed it : 1) restored my phone to ICS. 2) Got Mobile Odin and got the add on to flash. 3) Flashed CWM EL29 4) Got into recovery and Wiped data/ factory reset. 5) Installed ROM and GAPPS 6) Wiped Cache and Dalvik and i rebooted.]]]Then i saw the new cyanogen 11 and i decided to get but when i got into recovery it would say an error trying to install the rom. So i wanted the Pacman rom back so i went and restored my E4GT to ice cream sandwhich FJ12. After that i installed mobile odin and got the add on thingy to flash. Next I clicked Kernel and flashed CWM EL29 v.5.0. I did the steps again. Wipe/Data Factory reset. I installed the ROM and GAPPS. I wiped cache partition and dalvik cache. So when i rebooted it.. It took me to the boot animation with pacman chasing the ghost and the bottom saying pacman with the animation glowing different colors.I waited and waited for about 10 mins and nothing happened. It still stood there! I also noticed that when it was doing this, i tapped the home button and the keys lit up. I kept tapping the keys and nothing happened to the screen. It stayed the animation. I restored back to ICS again. Did all the exact same steps. It still stayed there! I kept restoring to ICS and did what i kept on doing but i tried different steps in recovery mode. Still sits there at the screen animation. After like 8 times of failure.. I tried to go and restore GB28 Jellybean stock and then restore to ICS stock. When the downloading process finished, the virgin mobile animation kept repeating and never wanted to load the screen. So i went back to ICS and tried to get Pacman rom for the ninth time. I failed. Help me! I also noticed that when i go to wipe dalvik cache.. Before wipe it says something in the bottom " extsd-not found " something like that. But i still wipe it. So please help if you can!
