Galaxy tab bootloop??? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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] Atrix 4g Stuck on Dual Core start screen Please help!

Ok so im realtively new to working on android phones, just got an atrix, rooted fine, superuser and all bootloader unlocked and stuff, booted into clockwork mod for the first time.
When i did this i clicked on "install update from SD card", chose Greyblur as a test rom cause i seen it on the guide to flash roms, so i followed what they did exacly, when i installed it, i went straight to the "reboot" button, clicked reboot and when it did it wont go past the Dual Core Technology screen, please help me android atrix veterans! i dont have insurance and ive been searching for about a week now, im really scared that im royally screwed, i bought accessories for the phone and want to use them on a non-soft bricked phone!
Please and thanks!
1. Install Romracer's cwm
2. Greyblur is a pseudo-rom, try any rom at the top in the development forum instead. I'm using Nottach's Dark Side right now, it's crazy fast and is very stable.
i have cwm, the problem is i just cant get booted into it without getting on my phone, and launching it via an app i have, is there a way to get on the CWM recovery without an app? cause when i click android recovery it takes me to the stock recovery
Ok, sounds like you installed Tenfar's OLD clockwork recovery, which was only a 'bootstrap' recovery.
What you need to do is, try getting into recovery by doing this:
power off.
press and hold power and vol down buttons until you see 'fastboot' appear on screen. press vol down 7 times until you see 'android recovery' and press vol up key.
This may or may NOT work since you installed the boostrap recovery from Tenfar.
If it DOES work. Do a factory reset. and reboot. See if its fixed.
If not do this:
Download RomRacers Recovery and flash via Fastboot
then do the same button commands to get into Recovery and try to factory reset again.
If none of that works, PM me with your information, such as Android version (froyo, gingerbread, etc etc) and I'll get you sorted.
how do i use fastboot? do i need a program or something on my computer? never touched fastboot before i dont think
Hey i have a similar problem my phone was rooted and an unlocked bootloader using the automatic unlocker and i went to install a rom i believe it was called unofficial aroma rom by th3 bill i went to install it from tenfars cwm and i wiped every thing first and when i went to install the rom it finished in like 5 seconds i pretty new to all this but i thought something was up when it rebooted it wont go past the dual core screen so i went and looked around and found that it could be a kernel issue or a recovery be outdated issue since when i tried to restore my back up on tenfars it still wouldn't go past the dual core screen i then put olmypus cwm on it to see if that wont fix it but i guess that made it worse cus now when i went to go restore I it says error mismatch mdsum so yeah i looked around and read that i can return to stock by flashing a fruitcake but before i did that i thought i should make sure first.hope you guys can help

alright so i did what you said and I'm just guessing the rom just doesnt work for my phone cuz it installed in 5 secs again and i installed a previous version of the rom and it didn't work as well it took me to a rom setup screen like asking me what i want to wipe and what memory to use and then installed pretty quick as well and it didn't boot past the dual core i then whent ahead and flashed the fruit cake rom which is pure stock 1.4.1 and now my phone works...i now have a couple questions do you think it would be smart to back up this rom and keep it as my back up even though its not my real original stock rom? my original one doesn't work it gets a md5 mismatch error or something and doesn't restore.i read some where that tenfars recovery doesnt back u roms properly and that might me why because that what i backed up on should i install rom racer recovery i read that that one is specifically for the atrix if should can you explain how to do that?lastly i stil want to put a custom rom on my phone because the whole reason i did this was because i found out i wasn't getting ics but
each of the two roms i installed never booted up and the only one that worked was the fruit cake do you know a good stable rom to use preferably ics or jellybean?i was also looking into the neutrino v2.9 rom but the linked is down and you need rom racer to install if you cant answer anything i asked please do thanks so far though

go back into recovery by pressing volume down while it's turning on. Then mount sd storage (from recovery) and past into your sdcard an other better rom).Unmount when transfer is complete. WIPE ALL: factory reset, cache and dalvik cache. Install the zip from sdcard. Enjoy
Try formatting data and cache. Format options should be under advanced - mount menu. After formatting your data and cache go to install zip from sdcard and install the new rom. Do wipe data, cache and dalvik cache.

[Q] Won't boot, worked fine, then bootloop, now it freezes (using CM9 ICS Nightly)

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 S2 stuck on glowing S screen

Hello,
I am new here so I apologize if this has been sked before.
I had cm9 stable version installed on my phone, and it was working fine. On Thursday, I changed my lock pattern as it had no lock on, but I forgot the pattern I put in (I tend to make it complicated) and entered it wrong many times that it asked for my google account and password, but when it got to that point, it started rebooting and it got stuck on the cm robot, and whenever it gets to the google account thing, it goes back to the robot and so on. Then I flashed a stock ICS rom using Odin hoping it would fix the issue, but it got stuck on the glowing s screen. The phone isn't rooted anymore. I tried wiping cache partition but that didn't work. My biggest problem is that I didn't back my phone up and I have important files that I need. Is there a way to fix this issue?
I would really appreciate your help. Thanks!

If you have CWM installed, you can mount the sdcard in the Mounts and Storage menu, but I don't remember if that sdcard was for internel or external.
Did you try wiping Dalvik cache in Advanced menu (Also CWM)? If you do, wait 5-10min for it to boot up.
Flash Siyah kernel, boot into recovery then mount USB and backup your files.
Then just simply wipe/install the rom zip of your choice.

boot to stock recovery and perform factory data reset.
You will lose, sms, installed apps etc but all data stored on your internal and external SD will be safe

Please help with this flusterc*ck of issues

Hi all,
New to this whole rooting and flashing thing. I'm not as good with computers that one can hold in their hand.
Anyways, I'll try to explain this stew of issues that I have
I'm running CW Recovery (6.0.2.3) in conjunction with SlimBean (dtt 4.2.2). One day, in a far away land, my phone prompted me to update Slim. That was all and dandy because I've flashed roms from zip files before. When I tried to do that, the process was aborted and I was given a slew of error numbers that made my brain hurt.
So, I tried to start fresh and clean, like the cilantro that chipotle puts in our burrito bowls. I tried a factory reset using the CW Recovery mode so I can re-root now that jellybean is 4.3. After I wiped the cache and data/factory reset, I rebooted the phone. My phone still boots into Slim and uses clockwork for recovery mode.
Essentially, how do I de-root my phone or factory reset it to the settings that I had from day 1?
UPDATE: I just tried flashing CW Recovery from 6.0.2.3 --> 6.0.4.7. After flashing it, I rebooted my phone into recovery. Now I'm getting a never-ending boot cycle. The samsung logo pops up along with the little blue text "recovery" at the top, then shuts off and repeats that every 3 seconds or so. Methinks I broke it
Thanks

Stuck on boot animation (cyanogenmod)

I was using my phone and all had been working fine for ages. It was in my pocket for a while and when i took it out to use it I saw that it was on the boot animation of CM11. My phone was already on when I last used it so I had assumed it had crashed. I took the battery out and turned the phone on again but it got stuck on the CM boot animation. The last time I turned on my phone before that was when I flashed a supersu zip file to make my root work as I was having some problems. After flashing the supersu zip and told my CWM recovery to restart the system, it prompted me to "fix root" or something like that, and I clicked yes and it booted normally. That was the last time it booted normally before being stuck as it is now. First thing I did after it got stuck was go into recovery and reflash my current rom ( a CM11 snapshot) I then got faced with a status 7 error and so couldnt flash the rom. So then I flashed multiple other CM11 roms, none of which worked, so I flashed a CM10.2 stable rom which worked. I then got faced with the fix root before reboot thing and so I clicked yes. Still had the stuck booting thingy. I tried many things, flashing kernals roms gapps etc and nothing made a difference. I wiped cache, dalvik cache and no difference. I even wiped the system and tried to flash roms but only the 10.2 one would work, still got a status 7 with the CM11 ones. When I wiped my data however and flashed CM 10.2, it booted. I still couldn't flash the CM11 roms though even after a factory reset. So I have the reason to believe something in the data is wrong, not cache system or anything like that. What could it be? I don't want to have to lose all my data in order to be able to use my phone again, even then, something is still wrong as my phone won't flash CM11 roms anymore. So my questions are;
What things could have caused this?
Can this be a problem from flashing the supersu zip (a root issue)
Is it possible to somehow view or copy the internal data on a computer (since I cant get into the operating system), and this would allow me to get all my pictures contacts music etc anything so I can use my phone by wiping data?
Thanks, sorry this is quite long and probably hard to understand whats going on, but help is appriciated thanks
Don't fix root if you wish to use SuperSU instead builded-in cm superuser. Also try to flash via Odin latest recovery. TWRP should be fine. You can mount partitions from recovery level to download data to your computer. Of course if it still exists. If not, if they are corrupted you need to flash stock ROM and repeat whole cm11 adventure again. If Odin successfully flash the stock then it's a chance your partition layout and user data are untouched.
