Okay so I got this phone back in late May and I have to say it's a great phone for its price.
A few weeks ago I attempted to root it and was unsuccessful, so I just left it alone and it has been working fine. Now ever since 2 days ago when I set it to reboot , it's been doing this strange boot loop until it decides to actually boot up. And when it did start it's like it choose when to charge / connect to sub etc. And its like this every time I turn off and on the phone, boot looping and barely taking charge. Although , when the battery finally dies, it charges fine if you don't take out the usb cord at all.
im very concerned with this issue.
I put it in recovery mode once and did a factory reset, but I didn't remove the contents my internal memory, so now I am currently backing up all my files so I can do a full factory reset of this device and see if that does anything. Does anyone have any other suggestions on what I could do? It would be much appreciated :good:
I have the same problem/issues.
I bough a brand new device and its stuck in boot mode. I ordered a replacement via Amazon.
Anyone has an idea if this is a hardware or software issue?
i have another problem with my blu vivo air lte, i rooted the phone and cannot update again, wanted to flash the original firmware, found one on the net for the vivo lte, flash it, and now my phone is in black screen, some times i can get the phone in black screen to Marshall London Bootloader Interface, i need to find the correct file for flashing my phone, i use for my phone this one: 8916_fastboot_all_images, fastboot, and is not working
It did it again
SO I got the boot loop to stop and the vivo air phone working good as new, but since last night, it's been doing it again! This is the absolute worst time of year for it to be doing this, I'm so frustrated. But since the last time i got it successfully rooted with King root, so this time I assume it's gonna be a bit trickier to get the device working. I've tried to get it to hard reset and have been unsuccessful since there's no cwm recovery out for this device, I need help please please pleaseeeeeee :'( :crying:
Help meeee
Can you please tell me how you got the boot loop to stop

How do I stop the boot loop, im new here, just joined today
Besides the Vivo Air, I have a few other BLU phones. I dont know the fix for the bootloop my vivo air is doing but from problems with my other phones, I've come to conclusions that BLU phones are not reliable.

Hello all,
Recently I have had a major issue with my nexus 7. About a week ago, it died (ran out of battery) while I was using it. When I attempted to turn it on after charging it, I would get the screen that says google, with unlocked lock icon. The tablet would be frozen at this screen. I left it running until it died again. I was running the latest stable release of cyanogenmod 10 with no problems before when this happened.
By now I had realized that the nexus may have been bricked. I did some googling and found that this is an issue other users have been having when their battery died on android 4.2.2. I attempted to restore the nexus. At this time I was able to access bootloader on the device by holding down all of the buttons at the same time. However, I decided not to restore the nexus, and wait until a time where I would be able to turn all of my attention to the problem. But when I tried to restore the device yesterday, I was not able to access bootloader! I connected the device to my PC (running win8) and it is not recognized. Similarly, trying fastboot restart-bootloader gives me "waiting for device". I am afraid that the bootloader may have been corrupted somehow.
My question is, how can I fix this? Is there a way to reflash the bootloader, or is there something that I am missing? Is there a hardware operation that needs to be performed on the device (battery pull, etc)?
Thanks.
i seem to have this issue as well i cant got any response out of my N7 at all no matter what i do my problem was i was restoring stock image thou N7 toolkit on XDA and it decided it was gonna stop half way thou the install (died Completely even while on charge its dead ) and now i cant get no life out off it at all... iv tryed hard reset soft reset and even taken the battery out tryed getting into bootloader as well with no luck this is my 2nd N7 and they wont take it bk????? if some one could be able to help me with this as im about ready to sell it as spars n repairs which i dont want to but im sure some one will have it any help will be appreciated
thx mike
I apologize already if this has already been posted before, I couldn't see one that had my issues so I'm making this thread.
OK, so here is my problem and everything that I can think of that I've done to my phone.
Today I tried to restart my phone as it was getting a bit sluggish. When I did it started booting fine then the animation sound stopped while the droid eye was being put together. Now my phone will not pass the droid eye during the boot phase. I press the power and both volume buttons and after a few seconds it starts itself back up again. I do the power button and down volume buttons and it still does the same thing. I've even performed the factory reset twice and it still won't help.... And no matter what I do it keeps booting itself back up on its own.
What I've done to my phone:
I am rooted but never got the boot loader unlocked since i waited too long and the last update wouldn't allow the boot loader unlock methods anymore. I have used titanium backup app to delete some system apps for example the Verizon football one, slacker radio, and any of those useless apps that I never use. I haven't deleted anything lately and have restarted my phone many times since. I have been delaying the recent update hitting no or not now, whatever it says. I thought that I said no today on the system update as well. Even then my phone was working before I restarted it.
PLEASE I hope that there is something that I can do to fix my phone because I'm forced to use my LG Vortex again and my upgrade isn't for another year..... I don't want to buy a new one since this phone has been great and I'm almost certain that if there was a way to reinstal or flash the droid razr m OS that that would fix my issues.
Thanks in advance for your input and please know that I'm a novice with this kind of thing so you will have to explain the process to me. If i have instructions I can definitely follow them.
THANKS!
You Factory Reset a couple of times, so that tells me you know how to get into recovery. See if you can get back into recovery and try clearing cache/dalvik too. I think you can still do that from stock recovery.
If that doesn't work and your battery is good, you can fastboot to recover it. If your battery was low when you started this, charge it prior to fastbooting. Just hold down the power button until the phone shuts off and plug into a WALL charger until it's charged. If the battery is good, you can grab the firmware from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=8 (use the second one from the bottom, .3, if you flash the last one you will not be able to gain root) and flash in RSD. Another choice is to use House of Moto to recover: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/28162-house-of-moto-20/ .
OK, so I deleted the cashe and still a no go. For the second step of getting the .3 to regain root. would it be possible to get an even earlier version so I can unlock the boot loader? Also when you say flash in RSD, what is that? I know of the AP flash from the first menu, is that something inside of Recovery menu options?
Thanks for your help!
**UPDATE**
THANKS! I was able to eventually figure it out and used the last option that you said and my phone works! Now working on getting root back. Thanks again!! But I really would like to know if I could do the same thing but with an earlier version to unlock the bootloader.
Droid Razr starting up issue
Hi guys, I am facing a weird issue with my Droid Razr and hoping pros to help me sort this out and get my phone running.
I am using Droid Razr but since last one week it is not starting up. Let me elaborate, currently it is switched off and not getting up. While starting it pass through M logo but can't go ahead for startup animation (droid eye animation). Even after leaving on that animation for entire day, it is not going ahead of that.
However, if I connect it to a wall charger (while it is off) it shows battery getting charged. It is taking a usual timing of 90 minutes for full charge.
I have important pictures and data into phone memory is there any way to recover it.
I would appreciate if you can guide me to get my phone up and running as usual.

Need help, going to try and give as much detail as possible so sorry for the long post. I dropped my phone a few weeks ago and the LCD broke so got a refurb warrenty replacement phone. Att S4 - got it 12/24 and rooted using towelroot on NJ4. Everything was fine until sunday or monday when I realized my Beautiful Widget weather was still stuck in NJ where i had been a few days ago and the last time I'd turned locations on, thinking location was still just GPS like it used to be. read up on all the location info of power saver vs full accuracy, and decided I would just set my widget to my home zip code. Within 24 hours i started experiencing random reboots of the phone, with the occasional boot loop. tried turning the location settings back off and that helped for about a day before starting having reboot / power off issues again.
So last night I decided I would give up and try and do a factory reset. First i wiped the cache from stock recovery. Then the phone wouldn't boot past the att screen at best. So I went back into stock recovery and did a full reset. at this point the phone will no longer get past the Custom Samsung boot animation. I tried using the one-click unbrick tool, but my phone wasn't coming up as a USB option and I haven't been able to find any additional trouble shooting to get that to work.
So next I decided to Odin the stock unrooted firmware, which i believe was NB1. Now i can't get the phone into recovery at all. It is hit or miss if the phone will even get to the custom boot animation, but immediately shuts down from there. I can still get into download mode at times. Wondering if there may be a hardware issue either my battery (which was from my original phone) or the power button on the refurb because there were points last night when i would have to hit/hold the power button 5 or 6 times before the phone would do anything, regardless of what other buttons i was or wasn't holding down. that seemed to improve once the phone cooled down for a while.
I really have no idea what else to do. Based on everything i've read the phone should be working at this point or should be totally bricked. any guidance is greatly appreciated. I would try and just warranty it again and claim they sent a bad phone but of course it boots just enough to show the custom animation, even after i odin'd on stock. HELP!!!

Odin back to NJ4 :/ You can boot into download mode so that means your phone isn't hard bricked. If that doesn't work than I think I'll have another idea. Oh, by the way, what ODIN version are you using? If its 3.09 put the .tar in the AP section and for 3.07 and below its PDA. Also, make sure it's the correct image. Anything below NB1 doesn't work for KitKat users.

here is the problem, hope someone can help, cuz im driving myself crazy trying to fix this....
so, i flashed a custom rom (m.o.a.r.) and everything seemed to be going fine. the installation went off without a hitch, insisted i was in the clear and that the rom took. soon as it was done and auto rebooted my device tho, everything went sour.
it remained frozen on the samsung screen for approximately 2 hours then just shut off.... battery life was good so it didnt just die. (oh, might i mention i have had numerous roms on this device so its not my first time) i tried to turn it on but it remained stuck. so i pulled the battery and booted it into recovery (twrpv2.8.1.0) where i wasnt able to do anything. my sd card refused to mount and 3/4 of my internals were bare.
so i decided id try to throw it in download mode and use odin... at this point it warned me that i had no o.s. installed...... my phone goes into download mode but no matter what i do i can not get it to connect to me pc...
what do i do? is there anything i can do?
please help...
I am in need of serious help! I dropped my phone off a 2nd story, smashed the screen completely. So I took my wife's old stylo 2 plus (exact same phone) stuck my Sim and SD into it, registered through metro pcs, and it worked great.
I did software update because I was really excited (my old stylo 2 was rooted and had many problems along with being unable to update android software).
Update took about an hour, then said failed. After that it has been unable to boot up. I tried recovery mode, it offers to factory reset. Again reboots and stuck at logo screen. Says error device is corrupt, cannot be trusted, will not boot. I press power it says press power again to boot anyway. Restarts and sticks at logo screen. Device is basically untouched. No oem unlock, no debugging, no developer options, nothing has been touched ever, the phone is 100% stock. I even did factory reset before I started using the phone.
Can someone please help me at the least flash trip so I can fix this??
I am not new to this, but has been 5 years since I flashed anything. The problem is, is that it's still locked, and can't boot up. The phones bricked and never been touched!
If I can get twrp flashed I can go from there, I need a way to unlock it, or flash without unlocking.
Please help me I need my phone for work. I'd rather not switch back to an old smashed screen

You need to download the kdz(device firmware) and flash it in download mode using lg up.
Sorry for the super long delay. I did what you said, and was able to use my phone again in no time. Thank you very much!

Hey would you be able to tell me which firmware worked or possibly even a link. I am having issues with getting one to work on the lg stylo 2 plus using lg up.
