you should never wipe using the privacy settings menu, that's what caused the brick

totally. what the hell? does no one read before flashing? this info should probably be in giant letters at the front of EVERY rom thread.

i did my research before flashing and knew not to do this. some people jump in too quick.

Hey guys, help him instead of telling him what he shouldn't of done, he knows what he shouldn't of done because his phone is bootlooping.

Try reading through the "oshi-brick" thread.

[asadullah]

try this type

adb shell
reboot bootloader

thats how i get to bootloader from recovery

Dont smash your cell with a hammer like my buddy did. There is almost always a way to fix it. Just give it time and READ everything before ya do it Good luck

I just wanted to thank you for being a responsible guy and digging yourself back out of the mess that you'd got yourself in, rather than just being an *** and trying to return the phone to the store.

You broke it, then you fixed it ... congratulations!
