sorry for my bad english + i am new to android

you can install stock roms with sd card androidz.jimdo.com/full-reset-install-stock-roms/#.TmuVbFtHqmk

rooting with SuperOneClick and fastboot were working, pleace dont try to flash any type of U8150 firmware! i brick my ideos x1, and dont found any way to reflash (fastboot working partional but android adb dont recognising the phone) + no functional clockwork recovering image!

=> without android knowledge its to easy to brick the ideos x1 ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mihalyreg:
reboot recovery ideos x1

If the phone is working you can reboot in recovery mode by executing on the pc:

adb reboot recovery

(on the windows pc you have to install android sdk, enable usb debugging on phone, connect phone to pc and go to folder C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools)

If the phone is not working...I have no idea, I'm also looking for the key combination :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] biocarlos:
the combination of keys is... press the power button and the volume up button at the same time ;)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggggg1:
Apps are not restoring from market after having unlocked bootloader (and phone got cleared).

I unlocked it yesterday and on a first run apps did get updated, and in fact I got the new market as well, which I hadn't had before.

I had to re-do the whole process (lock and unlock) because it hadn't worked correctly (syntax error in updater-script).

This time apps didn't update. I checked from my laptop and my market there did show all my apps (paid and free), although the one on my phone only showed the paid one.

Tried it again today and it still hasn't updated, even though I've let it sit for a few hours. Logged into my market today from laptop again and I only see one app on my account (the only one I've paid), but it might be because it is listed in the "My Orders" tab; there doesn't seem to be a "My installed apps" anymore. The free ones aren't listed any place I can find, although if I search for them individually they are tagged as Installed.

Is "Market" temporarily broken or is there something I can do?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnnorth:
If you've got titanium back-up try running market doctor (settings, more). It usually works for me.

The other option is to clear the data and cache for the market app.

The market can be a bit iffy at times but.the apps usually reappear eventually.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggggg1:
Still not updating...

I've reset the phone completely and have got it to sync with the couple of apps I'd added during today, but can't get back to the old ones I had.

I wonder if it's had something to do with having received the new Market yesterday at some point, but now being on the old one again after the phone reset.

Is there some way I can force the OTA Market update and see if that will sync me back?

I currently have an Otter Box for my 3vo. I like my case, I really do. Can't count how many times I have dropped my phone and not marks left on the case. Well I would like to know who out there makes a silicone case for the phone with extended battery packs, along with a cradle that will hold the over sized phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] stanglifemike:
Seidio makes a docking station that will fit their extended battery. Seidio also makes a case that fits with their extended battery, it's similar to the Defender.
[HTC EVO 3D] northmont30096:
We just approved the prototype today for a new TPU case for the Evo 3D after market extended battery. It should leave our factory in China on 9/14 and be available soon after. I don't have any pictures yet but I'll attach the 3D scan :)

We have similar cases on Amazon for the Thunderbolt, Incredible, and Evo 4G but this will be our first TPU case due to customer requests that the silicone was to soft.
[HTC EVO 3D] northmont30096:
Hello. Not trying to spam you guys with advertising but we did release our new TPU case today for the Evo 3D. I believe this is the first case available for the aftermarket extended batteries.

You can find them on Amazon and Ebay in various colors. I'm anxious to hear any reviews from any of you guys. Let me know if you have questions.

Have a blessed week!
[HTC EVO 3D] Ilovemywife:
I cant find you on Amazon.

[HTC EVO 3D] cmloo:
Well this is really refreshing and I like it. However I just cant seem to understand why this casing would be more expensive than the extended batt I bought for only USD 7. Hopefully the price will be more competitive once the mass production begins
[HTC EVO 3D] northmont30096:
Good question and I don't mind giving you a completely honest answer.

There are only a handful of manufacturers in Asia ( I only know two but I'm sure there are more) that have the 3D equipment and tools to make the silicone moulds. Hundreds of companies can make cases (and cheap) but none of them can make the moulds. The average cost to make a mould for TPU is about $3000USD and for silicone is about $2000.

Add that to an already narrow niche market of people buying extended batteries, narrowed more by people that want cases it means selling over 1200 units (at our retail price) to break even.

There are other companies selling cases for the Thunderbolt for $24.99 and a manufacturer as of today still selling a case for the Evo4G on Amazon for $14.99 and its in the top 100 in Amazon Sales rank for Electronics. We try very hard to be very competitive which I hope you agree with.

Thanks for your comment. Simple supply and demand economics lesson :)

[HTC EVO 3D] Roefastford:
The evo 3d tpu extended battery case is a flop.

The tpu case for the evo 3d with extended battery does not allow you to use the power on / off button and the volume up / down button. The plastic is too hard and will not work the buttons, it was poorly designed. I tried one off ebay from northmont30096 and the only way I can work the buttons is to remove the case. The phone itself as far as design is flawed by them building the buttons into the back case, not to mention its a real pain to get the back cover off and back on especially compared to the design of the evo 4g. My suggestion to anyone is wait for a true silicone case, or try the seidio case which I do believe the active case I think is designed with access to the buttons built in to the back door and not covering them. I guess until someone comes out with a true silicone case for the 3500 generic extended battery, until then factory battery and back door for me it is with a true silicone case. I would rather have a case some might say is too soft that will work the buttons than to have a hard tpu case that I have to take off to use the buttons. Just my 2 cents.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caravaggio971:
Hello there,

i know that this topic has been already debated several times but I couldn't find any solution to it.

I'm running MIUI 1.8.19, android version 2.3.5, kernel version 2.6.35.7-g3cc95e3, baseband I9023XXKB3.

Wifi signal is extremely weak, few meters away from any router and the connection becomes extremely unstable making the wifi experience a total nightmare.

I've been previously tried NSCollab and also different baseband configuration files but nothing seems to get things better.

For what is worth (even though the wifi is bad anywhere and with any router) my router is a Linksys WRT150N running on DD-WRT.

The Nexus S wifi thing seems to be a little bit controversial. Some users seem having no problem with it, some other experience the same problems i do.

Question #1: is that a hardware, software or both kind of problem?

question #2 : is there any workaround that would allow me at least to comfortably browse the internet from my bedroom (5-6 mts away from my router) without getting disconnected every other 30 sec?

Thank you in advance,

D.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
You kept a phone that can't hold a wifi connection over a distance of 5m? I'd have returned it on day 1.

It's normal that the distance of WIFI on smartphones is less than say a laptop or pc, but 5m is definitly not normal.

Verify w/ other wifi networks, same problem = return it. If not, bad luck, might be the combination of your phone + the router not working properly.

You can try changing radios to see of that improves your situation, for some it did.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caravaggio971:
Yes, it is normal having a weaker wi-fi but my blackberry has no problem at all. it is the nexus and it seems to be quite a widespread problem around the globe.

Well i was abroad on business and couldnt return it. Just looking for clues....

I know that netarchy's kernel uses updated wifi drivers, you can try flashing that and see if it does anything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caravaggio971:
Hi there,

i tried several kernels: netarchy, matrix and also installed MIUI and also tried the MIUI Brainmaster ROM. Same result: in my bedroom the wifi signal score a miserable -85/90 db. Is there any kernel out there optimized for wifi? I mean, it seems that the wifi weakness on the nexus S is a common problem.

Thank you in advance.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
It sounds as though you have a hardware problem or a router problem. I have to go to a room in the other side of my house to get -90 db and even then it doesn't disconnect. I have to get about 200 feet away before it disconnects.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
Also it might have something to do with interference on whatever channel you are connecting on but I don't really know enough about wireless networking to help you troubleshoot that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caravaggio971:
What i'm wondering is wheter Samsung uses different wifi chipset on the same phone cause i'm not the only one complaining about it. just google "nexus s weak wifi" and you'll see hundreds of people with the same problem.

still wondering if there's a software solution to it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petrochemicals:
It has been documented that the Nexus S uses an under powered wifi chip. The chip uses less power but with that comes a weaker signal.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caravaggio971:
mine seems to be weaker than average...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannstarr:
Yours does seem weaker than normal, but no nexus s has decent wifi range.

What I have done is purchase 2 old linksys wrt54gl routers, have them both loaded up with DD-WRT and then link them (bridged mode or WDS if you prefer) and situate the routers in either end of my house. I have a decent sized 3 bed detached house, with a 70ft garden, I can now get a reliable wifi connection near the end of my garden on my nexus, where as previously I couldnt get to the back door
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neurotica:
Might be an old thread, but I just traded my trusty HD2 for a Nexus S and god I hate the WIFI reception on this thing.

I am on stock 2.3.4 Rooted with KD1 radio and 2.6.35.14(Pete's) kernel. Tried just about anything out there, and nothing worked out.

Being a Pure Google experience phone, I was expecting a lot more happening for this phone, but it seems that my 2009 released HD2 was way better for all it had to offer.

I bought my Nexus S yesterday and I was soooo disappointed because of its poor wifi reception... But...

I am a network Administrator and a few minutes ago i just couldn't beleive that about 10 meters away from our Cisco Antennas i had about 89db signal so i started playing... and guess what i now have 55dbs at the same spot! What i found out is that Nexus S doesn't work well with High Frequencies so I disabled channels 8-13 and my AP had to work on the low channels and BAM! everything works fine now (My phone is in stock FW)

I hope I helped

I found this channel number which it uses to make no difference to the wifi performance.

I tried channels 1,6,11, no difference.

The phone just has poor wifi.

As a note, usually I don't use the low channel '1', as this gets interference from microwaves more than the upper channels.

I'm getting the same symbols on the boot up. Here's what happened to me. I was flashing to a rom when it said that there was not enough space on partition and then would be stuck in a constant loop. So I tried to use Odin to flash back to normal. I searched high and low trying to find the files and read up on one that only used the PDA, a .tar file. I was using that and it was at System Connection, or something along those lines. Then the cable was knocked out by my dog. Now when I try to reboot into download mode and do it over, I get the symbols. What can I do???

My front panel ports would (for some reason) cause odin to hang at different places, i would try one of your rear panel (on the io panel). I did this and had immediate success, if you want good odin files check the ones s15274n has posted somewhere or the files i have in my sig, same files different download locations.

stay persistent but DO NOT use random odin files, use tried n true ones n you will eventually succeed. good luck

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mdtolic:
It sounds like you are both in some stock Android recovery mode; like the one described in this thread.

First off, get rid of any .tar and .pit files you have accumulated. Delete them all. Then get the files from Br1cK'd's thread or s15274n's signature and try the 3 button Download Mode.

I have no idea why different Download methods work for different phones, but do a search and try them all. e.g. 3-button or Power off, hold volume down and volume up, plug in USB.

3. try another cord... I've had this problem before and the cord was the culprit

what happens when you try to enter dl mode with buttons? the symbols come up and stay there?

you may not be aware of this but just because the android digger doesn't pop up..... doesn't mean you haven't entered dl mode. try the button combo again and when you see the symbols.... just pretend its the digging android. when you plug in your cord it should still register through odin.
