My last 10 reboots always finished successfully, and during that time, no new software was installed.

Earlier, I installed HDRcapture and I remember seeing a prompt about Fcam drivers saying that they would only load after the system reboots. A few moments later, I had to take the system down because I needed to change battery (no AC power is available to enable me to perform the hot swap battery trick in case anyone asks). I then realized that the device was in a reboot loop.

Can anyone tell what went wrong? I'll try to see what I can do with it after I make this post by uninstalling packages installed by the hdrcapture install and the package itself using SSH access via USB recovery mode.

By the way, I am using Titan's Kernel Power.

Thanks a lot, Wikiwide.

BTW, as an unrelated question, is there a way to make the device power off during a reboot loop, with the battery intact? I am unable to switch the device to a flashing mode with this behavior.

Quick reply.
I don't know a way to power off the device during reboot loop without taking the battery out. Though you could try pressing power key between volume and camera...

I would suggest.
Take battery out.
Wait 2-5 seconds.
Press down 'u'.
Plug in USB PC cable.
Wait 2-5 seconds.
Put the battery into the device.
Check that phone is in flashing mode ('Nokia' screen with USB symbol in top right corner).

That's what I did. It works now. Fortunately, I only had to flash the kernel.
