[ERROR] Boot Loop - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, so i got my phone serviced yday and ever since im unable to use any of the Custom ROMS available.
I tried every possibilities, but some how even though im able to install it via recovery, im unable to enter the ROM due to the continuous Boot loop without any animations too.
But im able to FLASH the Normal Stock Roms as many times as i want.
Never experienced this trouble before at all.
Please help/guide me to resolve this issue.
Unable to use my phone without Custom ROMS.
Thanks in advance!

Google searches do work
You might want to google boot loop specificly with your phone's name in the search. Then do the same search here on xda. Your question has most likely been addressed elsewhere and maybe by the tag on the bottom of this thread you started.

Buggy recovery I guess, change or reflash your recovery.

Bootloader opened and cant start

Hi friends,
I am writing to you because in the Spanish forums on telephony have not had much luck, apparently no one knows my problem and nobody has experienced before, the question is that since I opened the bootloader I have not had any problems, and loaded the roms kernels without problem until a few days ago, after a long season with a MIUI rom I was going pretty well but appear new roms for the Neo because I wanted to try and I found that when trying to boot into fastboot light load make a flashing blue micro automatically if I pressed the button off the phone starts the rom and I can not enter bootloader mode, I tried to wipe and reinstall the same data again rom but no way the bootloader will not boot.
I hope you can help me, greetings and thanks

[Q] What to do with "Brick #3" - Transformer Prime

Hi everyone,
It seems I messed up my Prime and I think I know why it happened. I'll first ask my question and then detail what I think happened at the end. I've been reading around the forums for the past few days and I think I'm experiencing brick number 3 as detailed in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514088 I followed the link provided under option 3 which links to a thread about an Transformer Prime IRC channel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367016 I logged in into the IRC channel and someone greeted me by asking for the binaries...frankly, I've no idea what to do in that channel.
I was on the stock Asus Jellybean Rom. I used the Asus Unlock tool and installed TWRP via fastboot as explained in their website (installed the JB.blob). Everything worked fine. I then committed a mistake. I was going to perform a data wipe before installing the new ROM (latest CM nightly) but in retrospect I think that I only performed a factory reset. It was my first time using TWRP and when I got into the wipe menu I selected wipe but I recall that the button for wiping read "slide to perform factory reset". I thought that I was wiping the data on my device but I think that I got confused and only performed a factory reset. I didn't realize that at the time and proceeded to flash the new ROM. When I restarted the device it got stuck in the Asus/Nvida splash screen.
I'm able to go into the recovery menu. I've wiped data properly many times after this and flashed CM many times but the device won't get past that splash screen. I tried flashing the ROM via ADB but whenever I enter the command the terminal shows me a list of the actions that can be performed via ADB and nothing else happens.
I've tried looking around for a solution but I've been unable to find one. Should I install/flash a stock blob rom? The links above say it may do more harm than good and no longer advice users to do that but I haven't found any other alternative. There are many threads pertaining this issue but each case is slightly different and I haven't found one that applies to my situation.
I'm mad at myself because I've had flashed so many custom roms on other devices before and had never had any problems whatsoever that I got careless when flashing the Prime. I know this is completely my fault and I don't want to waste anyone's time on this. I just would like for someone to tell me exactly what to read or where to look so that I can try and fix this situation.
just in case...I just remembered that I didn't root before flashing...could that have been the problem?
I was checking out, once again, the options in TWRP and I did wipe the device correctly. I didn't mess up as I once thought. I can't understand why this happened.
Nearly the same problem for me, case n°3 and don't know what to do. I know have a very expensive black mirror...
FIXED
YES! I was able to fix it BUT I'd be careful before trying what I did. Basically, I did what forum members had advised not to do; I flashed the Asus stock rom via fastboot. As I said before I had read plenty about the various issues with the Transformer Prime. I noticed that some people were flashing the stock rom when confronted with my situation and exhorted others to do the same since they had luck with the procedure. After that, it seems plenty of people bricked their devices by following the same procedure. This caused various senior members in XDA to no longer advise others to try to fix their tablet with that method since it was causing more harm than good (see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514088)
Sadly, I had no other choice but to try that method. We were advised to go to the #Asus-Transformer IRC channel but, understandingly, there aren't many people participating in that channel (it's very old!. I was able to get assistance from a very helpful (as always) android geek but we couldn't get anything to work since I was having problems with ADB recognizing my device.
So, knowing full well the possible consequences of flashing a stock asus rom I decided to go for it. After all, the worst thing that could happen was to end with a hard bricked device and the soft brick I was experiencing wasn't as different as that (i.e. I couldn't use the device anyway). So I decided to play russian roulette and see what happened. Luckily the rom installed fine and I was able to boot past the, dreadful Asus/nvidia splashscreen! I was super lucky! Even though I'm back to the stock rom I'm happy because I can use my device once again! I really wanted to try out Cyanogen on my tablet but I will have to pass on that...I will never install a custom ROM again on my Prime
So, if anyone is feeling adventurous and has lost all hope then why not play russian roulette and check out what happens when you install the asus stock rom? I downloaded the asus image from here http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Eee+Pad+Transformer+Prime+TF201&os=32 and followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680570 (just step three and four at the end since I already had a custom recovery installed). I had to unzip the download twice (it has a zip inside a zip) and copied the blob file into my fastboot directory (in the PC). I then renamed it to "update.blob" and flashed it.
Don't try it unless you are fully aware of the consequences!

phone giving me problems flashing and what not

and by me i mean my buddy, so im asking on his behalf, so basically he unlocked the bootloader and rooted it as per the sticky, had a few problems along the way, but ended up getting rooted and flashing twrp on his phone
now he is facing some issues where he cannot copy files onto his phone via plugging into his pc, nor through the use of htc sync
on another note, he has downloaded some roms from here, in the android development thread, straight to his phone, and no matter which rom he tries, it wont boot into the rom, it flashes, but every rom hangs and bootloops, he has also tried goomanager with the same results on whatever roms are there
so, i guess in short he cant copy files to the phone through the pc, and he cant flash roms, any ideas why these issues are happening and how to fix them? could something have gone wrong in the unlocking/rooting?

Trying to get Gingerbread (CM7) to work...

Hi All,
I've only just got my i9100 (as a spare/fun device) as normally have my own N7000 as main phone...
I know you're gonna tell me to move on, upgrade, and use KitKat or Lollipop as an OS. But I'm trying to install CM7 on the i9100 for fun!!!
However, I've grabbed latest on the CM7 from their website. But it won't boot, I've read about bootloops fault, but not managed to find a solution yet. One fix was to install a file called cm_i9100_full_116.zip or summit, but can't find that file or get CM7 to boot...
Any ideas...? Work a rounds..? Certain Kernels...?
It's like it don't have boot or recovery, as when in loop... You have to connect to Odin to fix it....
HELP!!!! Please....
Thanks, Lister
Hi All,
Any idea's on this issue please....? I know it works, as I've done it on this very same device before (when it didn't belong to me).
However, now that it's officially mine... I wonna try CM7 again for old times sake, and can't get it too boot at all.
I've read many posts / solutions and whatnot... None of them have worked. I've tried flashing it twice, nothing... After flashing and rebooting, its like there is no Boot info, or Recovery is missing. As the only fix is Odin in Download Mode.
I've tried different CM7 zip files, from CM7.1 to CM7.2
I've wiped all the partitions, cache and so on..... and I've returned my PIT layouts back to stock layout. Still won't work???
Seems like it's a common problem, as loads of posts on it... However, when I first flashed it a few months back on mates phone (this same phone, which is now mine) it worked first go.....???
Cheers, Lister

Time2 TC1051G 10 inch Android Tablet

I am hoping someone may be able to give me some assistance. I am having an issue with this tablet. Now i will say it DOES work i can boot into it etc but am having a problem with it. Its to do with device certification when attempting to use services such as googles play store etc. Ive tried numerous times to correct this but to no avail. Factory resets etc have had no resolution on this issue. I am assuming that it has a custom rom on it (Android 5.1 lollipop). Ive phoned the manufacturer and they suggested a factory reset from recovery mode. Alas Ive already tried that and failed. I did manage to find a "Stock ROM" for this device on needroms.com but when i attempted to flash it and loaded in the scatter file it came up with a checksum mismatch error. So my only avenue left is to find a custom rom that will sort this issue out, but I have been unable to find one anywhere.
If anyone here has experience of this tablet Im wondering if you know of a custom rom that would be suitable to use with it (and more importantly one that has a custom gapps on it also).
Many many thanks.

Sorry my apologies. This post can be ignored as ive resolved the issue. My issue being that for some reason the tablet became unrooted and hence caused the issues with google play services. Rooting it via USB from my PC using kingoroot re-rooted the device and I have regained usage of play services etc.
Hi, I'm getting trouble finding this stock rom for tc 1051g. That site you mentioned maybe has it but it need somekind of premium membership and i aint that. I would be happy with any kind of rom for this unpopular tablet. thnx
