[HELP]Boot animation stops, rebooting - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey! I wanted to follow this Tutorial -> klick.
After i finished it, some of the Apps on my SD card didn't work anymore. I wanted to do a factory reset. The Problem is, i deleted some of the system apps, i even deleted the home.apk. I couldn't to anything without the home launcher, so i flashed a zip with launcher pro throu recovery. I downloaded root explorer and wanted to copy my backuped /system/app over to my phone, but i think this wasn't a good idea. The system crashed and just many many force closes came up. I closed everything, but the system still wanted to close, so i removed the battery...another bad idea. Now, if i want to turn on my Phone, the boot animation stops and the phone reboots and is doing the same.
I really hope anybody here can help me

It's called a bootloop, and from what you described caused it, it may be unfixable without flashing a fresh rom with flashtool.

Fine, but how can i do this? I've read that i habe to hold power when plugging it in while Flashtool is looking for an device, but the phone is just trying to boot normally
EDIT:
Ok, i have to push the back button... but if i want to Flash, i get this:
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - Now unplug the device and power it on
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - Then go to application settings
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
but i cant do this.

Found a solution! I installed the newest Firmware again with SEUS and everything is working. Thanks, XDA!

No space left on device

Afternoon all,
Last night I left my Desire charging as normal, having recently installed the Remote Media App. I suspect it used up all my storage with some sort of indexing process, as I returned to the phone this morning to find it perpetually showing the glinting HTC logo.
A reboot failed to clear it, and booting into recovery mode reveals"E:Error in DATA:data/recovery/log, (No space left on device)"
I've tried connecting to it with adb, but I get the following error
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -
Is there any way out of this bind? I had/have ClockWorkMod recovery installed in order to use ROM Manager, but I'm not terribly clued up on what else is out there on offer.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kyle
Try rebooting the phone into recovery mode and wipe/factory reset and see if this fixes it?
(Although you will loose all your apps/settings/scenes, though)
This should resolve the problem though.
hehe, there is always that option. I was hoping not to lose texts, settings, etc though this time round. Sadly my backup is more than a few days old.
I was mistaken in thinking I had ClockWorkMods recovery image installed, it appears to have gone back to the default image. I've just discovered a modified recovery ROM from JesusFreke here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443041 which may be of use.
Having to wipe and start from scratch again is a disgustingly appaling out of space failure mode. >:-/
bin the phone and use a pineapple
That recovery image is for G1! Don't even think about flashing it.
Even if you have stock recovery, you should still be able to clear storage from HBOOT.
Regards,
Dave
One other thing that might be worth trying is booting the device in safe mode.
Whilst the phone is power down, hold down the menu button and then power on - keep menu held down until the phone is fully booted.
I doubt that it will help in this situation, since clearly /data is completely full, but there's always a slim chance it work.
Regards,
Dave

Thanks for the advice m, I'll be sure to kick you in the nads next time you cross the border
Sadly Safe Mode fails too. The HTC logo appears and glints for a while, and then briefly vanishes just to reappear again. My thumb got sore after 5 minutes of holding the button down
I realised that was a G1 ROM shortly after reading more about it! I see there may be a more suitable recovery ROM at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709146 that I can flash. Failing that, then I'll clear storage and consign myself to failure
Wahey! It's sorted! Well, it was sorted a couple of hours ago, but a meeting got in the way
Wrote up some of the details here - http://lodge.glasgownet.com/2010/08/31/recovering-a-htc-desire/ if anyone is interested!

Sorry to dig up an OLD OLD thread, but your "guide" helped me out last night.
In addition to looking for "big" items in the data partition, I also moved some of the Google updates (5meg Maps.apk anyone ?) from /data/app to /system/app ... renaming to overwrite the original version from my Rom.
Thanks Again.

[Q] Simple CM9 issues!

Okay so,
I feel like this one's on the medium level of emergency here,
The issue is I flashed my cache, dalvick, factory reset, and (not sure) system to install Simple CM9, everything rolled along nicely except......
After booting into my promising new life, I noticed several issues:
KFU no longer recognized it, though the drivers still read "Android ADB Interface" in my computer
Google Apps would not sync my data, but still allows me to download apps from the play store
The sd Card partition no longer is shown by the OS, but still shows up when connected with usb (i'll be downloading a file manager soon, so this may answer itself to whether or not I can still access it)
TWRP will not boot by means of pressing the power button during initial boot
I understand I could solve my GAPPS sync problem by flashing them, and all my other problems wouldn't matter then. but I still have no means to flash'em.
Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!
-a lowly noob
P.S. Everything about the ROM is fantastic except for those issues, (which are probably my fault) so many thanks on that end
P.P.S. (I do have a nandroid of my stock os before I wiped so If all else fails I can just go back to that if TWRP can be accessed and start over)
I seen a similar issue earlier and the guy fixed it by reinstalling the twrp
but u can always try going to reboot and select recovery and see if that works
gracci
That's a step in the right direction, thank you
no problem glad I could help

cant find any solution with 'media scanning"

hi2all
before post this thread i cheked all xda but anyone method did not help me
my problem is "scanning media files"
one day when i serfing inet my E975 has been rebooted
after load i got a first time boot start message
all data lost and phone ask me to set all setting from beginning
now i see alltime 'scanning media files'
I have tried the following: steps:
made hard resets - no effect
flashed using KDZ updater (E97510C_00, E97510a_00 E97510f_00) - no effect
used LGtool (selected recovery..inserted my IMEI and load) - no effect
and followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2010624
but problem haven't solved
always media scanning
cant try any ways like fleshing kernel, becose need fastboot mode
cant unlock fastboot, cos cant make root... anyone way to install root not work, cos no access to phone storage
someone told me i can try to do root with adb shell... but cant find how i can use this in my sutuation
I would be very thanksfull any help
i rly dont know what should i do next....
In the past I have a problem with media scanner message, always running in the background, although I had no problems about rebooting or soft-resets, it was only a message running in the background always. The way I solve it was to go into "almacenador de medios" (dont know in english, maybe something like "media store") in app manager, and then force stop, clean data and clean cache, reboot and after a first past again, all went ok. I suppose you continue with the message after reseting maybe because cache or dalvik cache is not clean.
Hope that help.

have you tried the lg pc suite?go to lg's site and download it and the connect your phone to pc in "pc suite" mode.then from there you can do an update or press the "emergency firmware recovery" under device menu.This will propably recover your phone.

already tried this
but problem havnt solved after "emergency firmware recover"
anyone knows how i can made root without access rights to sd card?
ways like "frameroot.apk" and via bat file "currentroot.bat" - not worked (all those methods need access to sd card)
or maybe there are any commands on ADB to reset or fix sd card?
i'm rly sad with my problem....
what is the model of your phone and ROM?
did You try go back to stock rom with LGMobile Support Tool?
I have same problem but it occurs when I flash to E97510D ROM (my phone is F180K):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246867
when I want to fix it, I make emergency firmware recovery in LGMobile Support Tool (and factory reset after this).
Maybe your motherboard is giving up
no... every time I go back to stock ROM, its working fine

Stuck in setup wizard after factory reset

Alright, hello everyone,
I'm having a pretty weird issue here. I've flashed my DUK-L09 and the C432B183 EU Firmware, everything was running fine.
I couldn't make a backup of the /data/ partition though, someone told me to wipe the data to decrypt it, but nothing came good after this.
So I tried to flash back the old recovery image by extracting it, flashing it via fastboot, as I would normally do; enter the factory reset, run it.
Everything is good, it goes up to 100% pretty fast, less than 2 minutes. I then enter the setup wizard the NFC is acting weird. It keeps activating
and deactivating illogically. So, ignoring this issue, I kept up configuring the phone then once I'm logged in Google and sync'd, pops a Huawei ID
logging page really really fast then goes back to the EMUI menu at the beginning of the Setup, in an infinite loop.
Useful information to let you help me better:
- Many firmwares. Currently trying to flash back to B120a and NoCheck from OldDroid and Morph. (Edit: Didn't work)
- Phone unlocked, TWRP accessible.
- Getting a weird "Error 9" when trying to run Update.zip from TWRP.
- Sideload working, but not transferring anything.
- Cannot find any B182 or B130 stock firmware. Everything seems to be gone from Huawei's servers.
- The loading logo isn't Honor anymore but Android, for a reason I can't yet understand.
- Restoring a clean backup (without /data/, since I couldn't back it up) did not fix the problem.
- Trying to update with the 3 buttons do not work, even with the right firmware (C432B183) (Software install failed)
- Factory reset works with the right ROM, but gets me to the setup loop issue.
- The loop occurs when I am supposed to see the Huawei ID setup page. If I do not put any SIM card, or WiFi
I am prompted to choose which way to restore data; if I skip this step, it blinks and doesn't do anything.
- I tried to restore via WiFi (Google's cloud stored data from my account), but it does the same thing as mentioned
earlier. It blinks multiple times rapidly the "Huawei ID" setup page then goes back to the first Setup screen w/o
me being able to do anything about that.
I'll be glad if you knew the answer to this, because I'm all lost right now.
Greetings, Kameyuu.
UP !
After many tries and a LOT of hard work, and spent an entire night (was about to spend the second night on this), I found the culprit and now I know what the issue is, it sounds completely legitimate.
So here are the reason and the solution to this issue:
Actually, my CUST was somehow broken. I never flashed it back because no one told me to flash the CUST.img back. They told me to flash BOOT, SYSTEM, and RECOVERY only.
So, after I downloaded a software called HUAWEI Multi-Tool (From hwmt.ru) I noticed they were also asking for the CUST.img and USERDATA.img (<- this one was apparently optional)
So, trying my luck I flashed it. Did a factory reset, and all, it acted weird and failed, then I tried again and it succeeded. So, with all my hope I booted the phone to the system, started configuring... And it worked !
I was able to set up the phone. For a -yet- unknown reason, some apps look missing and the NFC is still blinking on and off repeatedly and randomly, but I'm investigating that.
If you have any question on the precise steps feel free to send me a PM or ask in the thread directly I'll be glad to sort your issue out.

Help -- phone won't boot and I need to get photos off

My daughter has been using this phone, but never backed her photos up. Now it won't boot and she is worried they are lost forever. I've been trying to help, but only seem to make things worse.
1. She never enabled USB debugging, or rooted it
2. She could not tell me whether she had allowed the OTA upgrades.
3. It got into a reboot loop a few days ago. It would start to boot, then say it was optimising a random number of apps (anything between 90 and 158) and then start over. Wileyfox tech support told me that this was due to an incompatibility between Cyanogen and the latest Facebook Update.
4. They sent me a link to the FOTA files with instructions how to progressively upgrade to Android 7 (TOS111B)
5. They couldn't tell me how to determine whether it was running CM12 or CM13 (I now realise that I could have looked at the log files in the recovery partition)
6. I therefore assumed that it was running CM12. I used their instructions to go into recovery and manually update from SD card to ZNH0EAS2NH from there to ZNH2KAS7EB and then to TOS111B
7. Fatally I did not reboot between updates. At the end I had the Wileyfox splash screen black on white, and then got an animation with it red on white. It then got stuck.
8. I then tried using fastboot to go back to the original version of the OS so I could start over. I found the fastboot image and I flashed the boot and system partitions.
9. Now on boot it either gets stuck on the black on white boot screen, or it displays it for a second and then turns off.
Can anyone help me? - I think my daughter will have a nervous breakdown if I don't find a way of recovering her photos. Recovering the photos is more important than unbricking the phone.

Since posting this I have had a partial success. A more complete set of fastboot flashing using the TOS111B fastboot images has got me to a phone that boots. Many of the apps work. However...
a) I get an "unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped" appearing almost as fast as I can close the app making it very difficult to get anything off the phone. However, I did manage to set up a google sync to upload the photos.
b) my daughter now tells me that her SMS's are vital.... and the messaging app says " getting message" then closes down
c) I cannot enable developer setting to enable usb debug mode. I can get into the phone status page under settings. Repeated tapping on the android version brings up the nougat splash screen, but the 7 taps (or 700 for that matter) on build number does nothing whatsoever.
Does anyone have any ideas how to recover to a fully working system without doing a factory reset?
I suspect that the sms database would have gone when the cache was cleared. Can anyone confirm that to be the case before I spend any more time trying to recover them?
Hi Jerry ,
Exactly the same problem here. Could you tell me where you've found the TOS111B fastboot images?
Thx!
Have you tried booting into safe mode?
I think you do that by pressing and holding the volume down down button during reboot.
If you can manage that you may be able to dissable the apps that are causing the crash.
