[Q] Bootup loop

[vicky_ag]

I have been having this problem even after doing everything correctly:

I wanted to try this ROM here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195912

So I went back to stock using the ODIN files from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475

Then used the GB bootloaders from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117990

Installed CMW recovery. Once done, I used the zip to install the rom.

Now the phone boots up, goes to the bullet screen after sometime boots up again. Any idea guys?

go back into cwm and wipe data/fact reset
wipe cache
reboot system now

While in your bootloop get back into recovery and reflash the rom (I had to do this on Miui and Simply Honey when I first installed them)

why would they do that though? ^^^

I don't know why it worked but it worked for me

Tried both the methods. Nothing seems to work.

I tried disabling vodoo and re-flash. The problem I have then is it just loops. When vodoo is enabled it goes to data parition not enough space issue.

Any help anyone?

Did you wipe date/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik before flashing rom then wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions before rebooting?

EDIT: Also I would backup everything on your SD cards. I got that not enough space on partition before and it ended up wiping my sd cards.

yes I did. Well looks like vodoo lagfix did its number on me. The internal data has been cleaned up , I am having MBR checksum errors and still doesn't work.

Also you can try this instead of odining back to jfd stock. It's worked really well for me when I've had major problems. Cleans everything up really good.

I have posted about it in several threads, including my own, so I figured I would finally put it in a central location. This is my FTDNB method for starting with a fresh, clean phone, without any ghosts of roms past popping up to cause you issues.

Download this first, and flash through Odin with your standard 512 pit file

Then when it reboots to the recovery screen, pull your battery, reinsert it and boot up to dl mode, and flash the following, with your same pit file, and selecting repartition in Odin this second flash only:

The first link there is Eugene's Froyo That Does Not Brick, but it doesnt work that well as a driver. As an eraser its great though! The second link is the Froyo JK2 leak, with fixed recovery and already rooted. If the first one didnt, the second flash will definitely put you back on Froyo bootloaders.

Thats my whole secret to keeping a clean phone and wiping out any ghosts. You can proceed from there in your desired direction (back to ZD or GZ preferrably) in a safe manner. Its always worked for me to clear up any oddness, and literally takes 15 minutes tops once you have the files downloaded.[/QUOTE]
