Ouch. What were you on when you flashed back, custom kernel, custom ROM, etc? If you were on Voodoo lagfix you really need to disable it before hand. I would say pull the battery, if you have a micro sdcard reader put a folder in the Voodoo folder called " disable-lagfix " and put the card back in. Try to reflash the stock rooted ED1 again.

Altered Beast has the Voodoo Lagfix kernel built in, and you must disable it before doing anything. Voodoo Lagfix converts the file system from rfs to ext4 and before you restore anything you need to be back on rfs. I would try to get voodoo disabled by putting the folder called disable-lagfix this way after you re-flash and reboot it will see the file.

Okay, so create a folder inside the Voodoo folder named disable-lagfix? I'm at home now and can do this, but have to redownload the ED1 stock file. I was only trying to get the ee4 update.

Can you be more specific I'm having the same problem as the OP, thank you.

I had disabled the Voodoo lagfix and did the stock ED1 flash and when I rebooted got stuck in the boot animation loop. I hated to do it, but after a Factory reset/delete user data in CWM I am now able to boot just fine. It must have been something written in the different file system that was corrupting something else. *shrug*

I actually reflashed AB4, then disabled Voodoo lagfix, then reflashed the stock root ED1. ED1 is non-Voodoo, which is why the boot looping occured.
