I9023 with wrong bootloader

Hi

I have a I9023 which is on 2.3.6 flashed from this thread.

My bootloader version is I9020XXXKA3 and my baseband version is I9020XXXKF1.

Is there any way to change those back to I9023XXXKA3 and I9020XXXKF1 so I can flash the 4.0.4 through fastboot.

Or will I get the OTA update eventually?

Regards

Sorenjul
[Nexus S General] Strato77:
I´ve upgraded to 4.0.4 and i´m thinking of going back to 2.3.6. ICS is slower and more power consuming than GB, and so far i haven´t seen any reason to keep the upgrade.

Anyway...thanks so much for the OTA updates! :D

ps: can anyone tell me the difference between GRI40 - Android 2.3.3 and GRI54 - Android 2.3.3
[Nexus S General] white^rabbit:
There is no recovery.img into the ROM zip... :o

boot.img

bootloader.img

radio.img

:confused:
[Nexus S General] oldblue910:
Generally, nothing. GRI40 was shipped on some European I9023 devices and was the official build that was provided to I9020T devices running 2.3.2. GRI54 was shipped on mideast and Asian I9023 devices. They have the exact same kernel, but did have different radios. GRI40 had XXKB1 and GRI54 had XXKB3.
[Nexus S General] xdatastic:
The 4.0.4 OTA just arrived on one of my i9023 Nexus S on Vodafone in Australia.

I was running a manual install of 4.0.3 (OTA for 4.0.3 never arrived).

error status 7

Hi, please help!!!!!

I have nexus s i9023, GB2.3.4 original from Vodafone CZ. I haven't 'touched' anything. No root, no bootloader unlock, I simply made no change (except installing Cerberos)! So it should all be perfectly original and stock, shouldn't it? Everytime I get OTA upgrade to 2.3.6 or 4.0.4 I ALWAYS get this error status 7 notification. I have read this thread all through, also tried the links from OP but still the same... Can anybody tell me how to fix it - IF POSSIBLE - WITHOUT ROOT? I don't want to rip much in my phone. I'd only like to have up to date android... Thanks a lot...

Phone info:

Nexus S I9023 / Vodafone CZ / 2.3.4 gingerbread (stock - never changed)

Bootloader ver.: i9020XXKA3

Baseband ver.: i9020XXKD1 (in bootloader) / i9023XXKD1 (in phone settings) ???!!!???!!!

Build number: GRJ22
[Nexus S General] MichelN:
Thanks for everything, without this topic my device would still be 2.3.6 :cool:
[Nexus S General] [-silver-]:
great thread. very good overview of the roms. then you can try also something old!

Thanks for this great article i have juste 2 remarks

The ROM for 2.3.3 GRI54 -> 2.3.4 seems to be broken v14.lscache1.c.android.clients.google.com/packages/data/ota/google_crespo/da8206299fe6.signed-soju-ota-121341.da820629.zip

The ROM for 2.3.3 GRI54 -> 4.0.4 was not working in my case and i had to do an update to 2.3.4 first
[Nexus S General] moussapes5:

what are the differences between FULL ROMS:FASTBOOT IMAGES and RECOVERY-FLASHABLE ROMS(4.0.3 official and official update to 4.0.4) because i would return to stock rom to bring my nexus s to assistance
[Nexus S General] ironia.:
i think flashabe means with recovery (clockword, twrp...)

fastboot trought pc (adb driver/sdk tools)
[Nexus S General] Andrew1998:
Ok i have installed official 4.0.3 (IMLK74 ) and then i have installed the update 4.0.4(official) from the official 4.0.3 ... after this i have locked the bootloader..now i can take it to assistance?
[Nexus S General] azrealsoh:
thx~
[Nexus S General] ironia.:
yes

stock recovery + locked bootloader = warranty
[Nexus S General] moussapes5:
hello

What video chat options exist besides live? Is Skype out yet? Google talk? Anything that others actually use?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Aaron McCarthy:
Tango.... which is a cross platform application. You can talk with people who have it running on Iphone, Android, PC etc

Works really well... not practical unless you have a phone with a front facing camera though. You don't have any information in your signature regarding what phone you have so I cant tell you whether or not it will work well for you or not.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] hah2110:
thanks. Looking at getting a radar. No google talk or Skype huh?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Aaron McCarthy:
Skypes coming they announced that at CES.... I doubt an official google video chat app will come any time soon.... If at all.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Do the Tmobile Galaxy s2 have the same chipset as the hp touchpad? So would hp webos work on this phone? Since webos is open source now and has anyone ported it to anything yet?

thanks, btw im new so my questions may seem dumb. lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Ween is is meant for tablets not phones and even if we could port Web OS to the galaxy S2, somebody would have to program the kennel and that's not very easy. what do you wanna do with Web OS anyway, Android is much better?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] clninja:
why would you want WebOS?

people are buying webos stuff and trying to put android on it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
I would rather not have that junk near my phone nice idea though. There is a reason why everyone who bought a touch pad put Android on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Anything good about webos ....ics stole so let's wait for that! HAHAHAHA

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jaekidd1012:
That's a good start. WebOS isn't "junk" by any stretch of the imagination. It was/is a nice OS that was a victim of poor decisions on HP's part.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] josemedina1983:
Web OS is great I use it more often than android Web OS is visually better than android 2.3. If you want a Web OS device Im sure you can get a palm 3 for 250.00 which is a nice device with no support.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
the HP tablet and our phone does have almost identical spec, except for the screen size

but i would NEVER install that piece of crap Web OS in our phone even if it'll run on our phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sandule:
You do realize that a large portion of ICS was stolen from WebOS when Matias Duarte left HP for Google. WebOS is still the best UI and the best for multi-funcionality, better than android and better than iOS. Don't confuse crappy HP with the product itself because WebOS is quite good, it's just that HP had no clue what to do with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
Um no.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] }{Alienz}{:
@xsteven77x:

Umm yes. I have a Touchpad. The WebOS UI is really amazing. I have Android on the Touchpad as well as ICS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djxcee:
WebOS isn't that bad. Blame HP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jsantiago.antonio:
I don't consider webOS junk at all, just because you prefer to use android doesn't exactly mean that all other mobile OS's are inferior in any way. I would like to see alternative roms for a phone that aren't just Android. Would make purchasing a phone allot more of a fun experience in my opinion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznSwag:
i had a touchpad before, the multitasking on it was so smooth but sadly hp launched the touchpad late compare to the other tablets on the market. It was destined to sell poorly :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tush:
It sold poorly because it came to the market late and was sort of underpowered for webOS.

Android is a great operating system, but webOS now that it's open source, would be a great addition to the SGS2.

What's great about webOS is the multitasking experience and it's built upon open web technologies.

I'd flash webOS on my SGS2 if it were available. Kinda doubting it though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jagon91:
I was really hoping to find something productive in this thread. I like webOS and would still own a webOS device if HP would have created a device that wouldn't fry when I plugged it into a charger. I loved the os that was very fun and easy to use.

[HTC Wildfire S] szuladam:
if u just upgrade to 2.3.5 and simply make a factory reset. in the last week who installed 2.3.5 everyone got this market issue. just a simple factory reset
[HTC Wildfire S] djthebogan:
Take your battery out, put it in, hold volume down and push the power button, hold down till it goes into hboot, wait a few seconds while it scans for files, then use volume down to go to recovery and push power to select the option. Once in recovery go to advanced, wipe dalvik cache, and select yes to wipe, then reboot. It will take longer to boot the first time while it rebuilds the cache.

But If u don't know what the dalvik cache is or how to boot into recovery, then im assuming u probably don't have a recovery installed. U need to be root and install cwm5 following the guides on this forum.

Unless there is some app u can use or some other way I'm unaware of to wipe dalvik

Do your research before asking such a stupid question please.

[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
as i wrote up, like 16 hours or so... and im using a phone moderately... i disconected a charger in morning, 10 o'clock and used a phone, internet, wifi, and played angry birds on purpose for 2 hours ... now im at 60 percent battery... so i can say it all works ... for me at least :D

[edit] : now its 24 hours, battery is 5%... and i was using phone moderately to high ...

Next thing is, i got a suggesstion from a member CafeKampuchia, and I will be editing first post.
[HTC Wildfire S] PedjaxD:
I will test this, i hope it works.. :) Thank you..
[HTC Wildfire S] cloudzxz:
Thanks mate :D
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
I'm glad i helped, now the only thing that is wasting my battery remaining is games i think, that must be CM related, or kernel or drivers or w/e .... i hope next builds from alquez will fix it ...
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
refresh... though im glad i fixed the battery life, i didnt make it last enought ... i want MORE . anyone with some usefull suggestions to add here ?
[HTC Wildfire S] szuladam:
What could u suggest , which options is best in justice defender?

or which would be the best way to use it?
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
i use advanced, then set it as u wish, and as its best for you , depends how you use your phone :) i can send u my settings if u want but, its all individual ...
[HTC Wildfire S] d33ps1x:
Hmm...

Don't overclock when running games as it runs ba||'s out while you are running them...Dim your brightness when playing games...Don't play games... :p

Get one of these and some anchor chain to go with it... :cool:
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
If i wanted to kill someone with my phone, i would certainly get that battery... WTH :D:D:D its HUGE ... :D

i dim my brightness, it acts better now ... though... there is problem in cm for sure, since on stock it was running for more time.... i guess someone will find where is that thingy that sucks my battery :D
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
here are the proofs :)

i used the phone moderate, talking/texting, some wifi+internet surfing, had some bluetooth pictures sent, and after the screenshot it lasted like few hours more idk how much exactly... I think it was like 1 o'clock ... :P means 6 more more, so its like 35 hours... :)
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
Okay, i refreshed the thread, and added an update, which also helped a lot with saving the battery ... :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mastershake725:
I have just installed Venum Rom using CWM, and cannot find where to set my alarm. I am new to the phone (went from my evo 4g a couple of days ago), so I am not to familiar with touchwiz. Before I was on Blazer Rom and you could just click on the clock in the home page and it would take you to the clock app where I could navigate to the alarm page. I am using Beautiful Widgets on Venum, and when I select the clock it makes a noise but does not navigate anywhere. Should I do a full wipe and reinstall, or is there another way to navigate to the alarm. Thanks for the help, and sorry for the noob question :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Which rom of mine are you on? The Epic VeNuM rom has the standard Samsung clock. And VCS has the aosp clock. If you click the clock icon in the apps tray and then click on the right side of the time that's its settings...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mastershake725:
Thanks for the quick reply! I originally had the lean version, so I went back and flashed the full version, and now have the sammy clock back. And I also have the clock icon in the app tray as well, don't remember that from before. Maybe it was a bad download or flash before. Either way it is working now, and thanks again!
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Spenda.Em:
Is there anybody who could tell me how to capture the screen of TWRP on the Kindle fire?

Appreciation in advance.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] ncvikingx97:
Since you are rooted, you can use the android market to get a screen shot app. I use drocap 2
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] GBH2:
I don't think that will work. When you are in TWRP you are not running the ROM yet and there is no way to open a screen capture app.

Maybe using adb and Dalvik Debug Monitor on your pc.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Takenover83:
You can do it with ddms (ddms.bat) as mentioned. Just tested it. Works fine.

Dear Spenda.Em:

I intend no offense or anger. In the future, please give your posts titles that indicate the nature of your question. Not only does this better help to draw readers who might be able to offer their expertise, but it also helps others with the same question find answers more quickly.

Check this

For people that wipe battery stats after installing a new rom.

Regardless of the make and model of your Android-powered smartphone, you most definitely were advised at one point in your life to delete the "batterystats.bin" file, aka wipe your battery stats. That is, of course, if you are the techy user.

According to those who tell you that, deleting that certain file (possible via Recovery) will make the phone forget the previous charging level, allowing you to "recalibrate the battery". According to Dianne Hackborn, Android Framework Engineer, this is just a myth.

Those in favor of "wiping battery stats" say that the file referred to above will hold information about charging levels. The discussion usually pops up in scenarios in which battery lasts shorter than usual or a full charge is reported when the battery is practically not 100%. Believers say that if your phone reports a full charge at a real 92% for instance, deleting that "batterystats.bin" will get you back on track.

The Android Framework Engineer says that the following statement is false: "The battery indicator in the status/notification bar is a reflection of the batterystats.bin file in the data/system/ directory". According to Hackborn, the file usually holds the information related to which programs and processes use the battery between charges (hence being responsible for the OS' Battery Usage report screen).

Deleting this file will basically wipe your battery usage reports, which is done anyways automatically when the phone is fully charged (hence you'll see a clear list when you reach a full charge). "Deleting it is not going to do anything to make your more device more fantastic and wonderful".

[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
This may be a generic Android question and not so much a Nitro issue, but I'm new to android so I apologize if it's out of line.

I see that there are ways to tether built right into my stock software, but I'm afraid if I use them AT&T will pick it up and switch me from my Unlimited Data plan to a tethering plan. I've been told about PdaNet 3.0, but haven't yet downloaded that. Any thoughts?
[LG Nitro HD] dbjungle:
They probably will. I would wait until there is a version of CWM or some other close to vanilla Android build for the phone personally.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Thanks for the reply, but it's a little over my head. From my minimal Android knowledge I think CWM means ClockWorkMod, but I don't really know what that is. I've got some learning to do.

I do get your point though.
[LG Nitro HD] dalamchops:
been tethering with the native app for a while (edited the entitlement check line to activate it). No problems here. I don't abuse it though, just basic web browsing when i tether.
[LG Nitro HD] E_man5112:
Yeah, CWM is ClockWorkMod. Basically, it's something dev's can use as a platform to create files to flash to your phone (including software that will take everthing back to stock if you mess up). It also provides a relatively simple, if initially intimidating, way for a user to install roms and other mods that devs provide.

Once CWM is on a phone, developers are able to make much cooler things to play with, from streamlined and customized stock roms, to completely different roms such as AOSP (Android Open Source Project) roms. These are stock android roms. You also can get CyanogenMod roms (Such as CM9 which is Icce Cream Sandwich) ported to your phone at that point. The AOSP and CM roms can take a while to get here, but devs can sometimes slip goodies like tethering into a customized version of the stock rom (the one from LG). They did on my phone anyway.

On any relatively new phone, there's always the wait till CWM is ported to the phone. After that, things pick up rapidly.

Hope this helps. I remember asking the same question (and many more like it). You get the hang of it real fast.
[LG Nitro HD] dbjungle:
How did you edit the entitlement check? I probably still won't do it, but I am very curious. I don't trust carrier and manufacturer customized roms.
