I awoke to my phone booting up. After a few minutes I did a battery pull. It rebooted normally. I checked the battery stats and I can tell it was looping for a
couple of hours while I was sleeping. Before going to sleep, I deleted some downloaded Roms and GAPPS. I'm running AOKP and Franco kernel. I did not delete any of the previous downloads of this rom. Do you think this has anything to do with the boot loop?
And if so, what should I do?

Yes, I have been using this Rom for awhile. For some reason I decided to delete those other downloads. I flashed the Rom successfully about 2 weeks ago. I haven't had any issues until this morning.

Been running AOKP myself for awhile now and just flashed b38 about a week ago, no boot loop or even rebooting problems.

I would see if it keeps boot looping again overnight. If it does I would probably start with a fresh ROM. I know it can be a pain to do and getting your settings the way you like it all over again.

Yea, I just walked in my room to find it rebooting again. I waited a while to see if its just rebooting or looping. Its the later, so I'm about to re flash this Rom. I was just bragging to my coworker that I have not had any problems since I rooted. I was trying to convince him to do it. He just got a nexus on Sprint.
I will be back in a few. I know it's that devil on my shoulder trying to convince me to get the S3... Not going to give in!!! I love this phone. Lol

Just a thought... Do you think it could be the kernel? I recently flashed the latest nightly of Franco. Im going to flash the stable build and see what happens.

Have DX. Having issues with it. SO I used RSD Lite and bootloader v 30.04 is install sbf file VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.SBF. All it does know is shows white M and the the mobo red eye. What step did I miss? Thanks. p.s. I did look around before posting this but could not locate answer.

Yup after a SBF if you hang you need to wipe data. Turn the phone off. Hold the home key and then the power key until you see a screen with a triangle on it. At that screen press volume up and volume down simultaneously to enter stock recovery. Wipe data and reboot.

Here is what I did:

With phone off:

1) Hold down the home button, then press and hold the power button (at the same time) until you see a /!\ sign on the screen.
2) When you see the /!\ press the search button.
3) You will be in the recovery screen.
4) Hit data wipe, factory reset.


I did the sbf to see if it would fix my wifi not working problem. It did. So somewhere along the line after rooting and ROMing it broke. Now to re-root. THANKS all for the reply's. Merry Christmas!
