I bought this phone a year ago, phone was working fine all the time, but suddenly in got stuck in boot loop, my phone is stock, boot loaded unlocked & S-ON, i can boot into boot loader as well as recovery, i tried to factory reset, during factory reset it wiped everything but in the end it mentioned some "problem loading emmc" errors, now after reset my phone boots flashes a blue screen and then gets into black screen of death.
I was using Lolipop 5.0.1, i never updated was always afraid to brick my my phone here my worst fear came true. :crying:

Interesting thing happened today which has basically put my phone in a death spiral state. The battery died and after charging it a while I went to power it back on and found it in a boot loop state. I can get into the bootloader, but from there if I select recovery it reboots and the white bar on the right side of the screen fails to fill up, then the phone reboots. I've tried flashing two different versions of TWRP from the bootloader and it still exhibits the same issue.
HBOOT 1.12.1111
RADIO 1.12.11.1210
S-OFF
I was running CM10.1 without much issue until the power issue.
Any thoughts?
Thanks to Zanzibar for helping me work through this on IRC. Eventually the steps outlined here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338391&highlight=boot+loop did the trick.
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
The device started booting but hung on the CM logo for far too long. I hard rebooted and installed an updated version of TWRP and then wiped and flashed the ROM over again. More updates to follow.
Well the device worked for the night but when I rebooted it this morning it immediately began the boot loop situation again. I RUU'd once and it got stuck in another boot loop. I got it to boot after hard powering down and it loaded the factory ROM. I rebooted back to the bootloader and flashed TWRP 2.5.0.0 and tried to reboot. Another boot loop. Hard power cycling didn't solve it either, so I pushed the RUU for a second time. Now the device refuses to boot into anything other than the boot loader -- the initial issue from this post -- and no amount of hard power cycling makes a difference.
The phone is currently showing as LOCKED in the boot loader so I dropped it off at the Sprint store to see if they could find anything physically wrong etc. More updates as they are discovered in the hopes that if someone else ever experiences this, they have something to reference.
Thanks for posting. Did you solve the problem? I think I'm having something similar.
I tried flashing TWRP into my j100mu, which is not supported...
Now, the phone won't pass the boot up screen. It's not a boot loop, or at least I doubt it, since it's not rebooting, it just stays stuck at the boot screen. I tried opening recovery to do a hard reset, but it won't recognize the input and just show the boot up screen. By that I mean that when I press Up+Power+home, the phone just boots up like normal and stays at the boot up screen, though Down+Power+Home works fine, but the moment i release any of the button, it goes back to the boot up screen.
So is this fixable or do I have a brick in my hands?
i had my amaze repaired (power IC, bad data cable caused it to not charge or even boot up or go in bootloader). Now within 30 seconds off booting up it used to restart. and i cant get into the recovery( shows logo and powers off when going into recovery from bootloader). i cleared the cache from bootloader and its now stuck at boot animation( not boot logo) and wont boot completely. before clearing cache after logo it used to show 4ext recovery boot screen then screen off, now it just shows logo and screen off. really need help i got this phone fixed after 1 year. im s-off and running any 4.4.4 rom (dont remember which rom, i think pacman rom)
so basically i can get into bootloader and use fastboot commands (no adb, authorized device). cant do anything else on the phone. is there a way to fix the phone?

reflashed recovery for the 4th time and it worked. it said the cache partition is corrupt. formatted it. phone works now. updating apps caused system ui stopped working error. going to flash other roms.

Glad you got your phone working--your persistence paid off.
Be sure to make a backup before flashing other ROM's.
I had flashed a custom ROM on my phone maybe a few months or a year back. I think I remember trying to reflash it trying to fix some bugs but it ended up getting stuck in a boot loop. I think after several tries it booted into TWRP recovery and I had factory reset it (these details might be a little fuzzy as I tried all of this months ago just never got around to posting this since I needed to focus on schooling) but now when I try to boot it, it just boots to the LG logo screen and gets stuck. I can boot into S/W upgrade mode and I had tried to restore it using the LG support tool but it recognizes it as the latest version and will not reset the phone. So right now I am at a loss and need some help to restore the phone and to hopefully flash it again. Thank you!
Hello all, I am having some issues after attempting to root my Razer Phone 2. The root failed but I initially had TWRP installed, and afterwards I tried to flash the factory image. This is where things started getting strange; I flashed the factory image and it seemed to run, but then I got a TWRP screen come up that said it was attempting to uninstall something, but that failed. It then went back to the initial boot screen, and then looped between the boot screen and the TWRP screen a few times after which it just resided on the boot screen. I initially was unable to get the bootloader to come back up on the phone but found it was still running in the background and I could interact with it via my PC. I have tried a few more times to flash the factory image but to no avail. I am still in the loop and I am not sure if there is anything that can be done.
