After the G2x heats up a bit from use, both my and my wife's phones smell like dill (dill, the spice) around where the camera is when you take off the backplate.

Seriously, exactly like dill. So weird. And it's not the battery, it's the phone itself, and only when it gets hot.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McDV:
Hi!

I'm running CM9 on my Nexus S and I'm using the On-Screen-Button-MOD.

It's no problem to disable the functions of the softkeys, but the problem is the backlight.

A workaround is to use a kernel with BLD, but there has to be another way I think.

The general problem is that the Nexus S's touchkey-firmware doesn't support to switch off the backlight and can't be modified, since there is no source available.

Anyway, it should be possible to completely disable the touchkeys I think! BLD is meant to dim them, but still let them work. But here they could be switched off completely.

Is there any way to completely delete the firmware or s.th. to switch off the softkeys completely (including the backlight)?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister Ypsilon:
Hi all,

i flashed the Chinese sbf with the v6 bootloader which runs kernels with bl4/5 signatures and flashed Quarx's CM9 build on 10th Feb on it. Now it shows the battery would be full at ca 4100mV. I can't use the original (Defy+) battd because now with the Froyo kernel it is like the normal Defy without plus (so it shows 100% at every voltage with the original battd). Can I calibrate the battery to 4380mV with the Defy-battd?

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redct:
I think the title says it all. I've got an Epic that produces a high pitched whining noise (reminiscent of an old CRT monitor) when plugged into USB without a battery in. When I try and turn on the phone, there's a very faint, intermittent clicking sound coming from the top area of the phone's back. If I put the battery in with USB in, the clicking sound resumes.

Since the phone won't turn on, I'm guessing something's wrong with the power circuitry? Is this anything that could be taken care of by me, or is the phone a lost cause?

Unfortunately, there's no breaker build in the epic, even with all its glory, galaxy s devices are prone to fuse popping.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benazhack:
Hey guys, i've a big problem.

Yesterday, suddently my nexus s didn't boot. It was stucked on Google logo.

It's rooted and it has the cm7 rom.

I tryed to reflash with cw recovery but i have an issue.

I cannot copy nothing on the sdcard partition.

I mount it with recovery and correctly copy the img from my pc. After i sync and dismount but if i remount the sdcard i cannot see the file that i've copied before.

It seems strange because if i try to format sdcard from recovery it says "done" but the data still remain.

After that i tried to lock and reunlock my phone but it fail.

I launch the command fastboot oem unlock, correctly the two-choices window appear, i select yes but on my pc i see (erase fail) and bootload remain unlocked.

Please give me some advice to resurrect my phone.

Thanks for the support, and sorry for my bad english.

I had almost the exact same problem yesterday. Tried literally everything and nothing worked. In fact it kept getting a little worse with every battery pull/reboot.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeeVidor:
After 4.0.4 OTA update device is bricked.

I have experienced the same issue you are discussing here.

A couple of days ago I received an OTA update to android 4.0.4 for my Nexus S device, vodafone UK. My phone is NOT rooted or OEM unlocked. The update downloaded but fails to install on reboot. The phone just returns to the original state, with the update waiting to install.

Any app or software will not work on the device, force closes error. If I attempt to restore to any factory settings or wipe / format the phone by any method you can come up with in a google search!, once the device reboots this change is ignored. If I copy any file on the Mass storage via usb, after the phone reboots the file is gone.

I've attempted to unlock the oem to flash the device in an attempt to resolve this, however when using ./fastboot oem unlock I get the following error:

... FAILED (remote: Erase Fail)

It seems the device has been screwed some how after receiving this update. It can only be a hardware error now....

Who is now responsible to fix this? i have had this Nexus S over 1 year now, can I take to Samsung or Vodafone for these guys to get repaired?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimeClypse:
Just figured something out, i had the same issues as described above, could only boot the phone with a hair dryer

The new update Jelly Bean 4.1.1 is more forgiving when it comes to booting (probably voltages of the internal SD!! I'm still testing, but as far as i can see now, the phone boots normally again now (no more stuck on the google logo)

My problems:

- Not able to unlock bootloader (erase failed).

- Not possible to boot normally due to faulty internal SD card (only able to boot with the 'hairdryer' trick).

What did i do:

- Just tried the same as the trick on booting: use the hairdryer when fastbooting!!!

- Have everything ready; cmd, fastboot files, drivers etc, phone connected to computer with USB.

- Try to boot it first after heating the phone with the hairdryer (get past the google logo) and then immediately remove the battery.

- Then boot into fastboot mode (power and vol. up).

- Immediately execute the 'fastboot oem unlock' command.

Voila, that did the trick for me. Status OKAY and my bootloader was unlocked.

Then ROOT and update the phone to 4.1.1 with the following instructions:

(not able to unclude link, see webtrickz dot com/guide-to-manually-update-nexus-s-i9020ti9023-to-android-4-1-1-jelly-bean)

That did the trick for me!

NO MORE HAIRDRYER FOR ME!!

OEM unlock FAILED (remote: Erase Fail)

Hi

I'm replying to this message to share my experience about the same issu i had.

I bought a broken nexus s on google, auction described the phone as messed up during some software update. When cell got here:

- Bootloader was loading and locked

- Bootloader was reporting no boot image and no recovery

- Recovery was flashed with cwm 6.0.1.0

When trying to oem unlock, I was getting "FAILED (remote: Erase Fail)" no matter what I try. My config was good i've unlocked many nexus s with the same setup.

In recovery I was not able to mount sdcard, system, boot, nothing was working as it should.

After many frustrating hours, i saw this post.. What a stupid idea.. But I have nothing to loose at this point.

I don't have a hair dryer but I do have an oven. I figured the idea was to get the phone really hot..

Set the oven to 170, convection on and cooked the phone without the battery and cover for about 5 minutes until it was really hot but not melting.

Did the oem unlock and guess what.. It worked on first try.

After that I was able to update bootloader, radio, recovery and installed latest cm10. I've wipped the phone a couple of time, tried everything I could think of to test if something is not working, but everything does..

No hair dryer?

Just cook you phone at 170 for 5 minutes.

Worked for me.. go figure..

I am a total noob..sry folks but there are so many forums that it only confused me more. I just bought a While Samsung Galacy S2 from Sprint.

Model : SPH-D710

Android version : 2.3.6

Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-SPH-D710.EL29-CL852097

My question should I be looking for information on rooting the phone in the Samsung Galaxy S2 4G.

Also can I get simple instructions on how to root. The couple of stickys on this forum say, you should have root.....

Just want to start from the basics,

1/ how to root the phone

2/ install Odin (or is this used only for rooting)

3/ CWM mentioned everywhere what is the purpose and when do I install

4/ I would also like to try the new ROM's

5/ How, when and what to use to backup the original phone before attempting the above.

Hope this does not sound so stupid, I will continue to browse the forums.

Thanks.:eek:

ROOTED AND 4EVER ROOTED MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS IF YOU WANT ROOT[I always root stock instead of .893 fnr(for no reason)]

BOOT INTO STOCK RECOVERY

FIRST FLASH .893: http://db.tt/vfNEdVdf

THEN .902: http://db.tt/g0gm69Hq

REBOOT

enjoi

If your already on .893 just flash .902 in STOCK RECOVERY NOT CWM

FOR SUPER NOOBS

Flashing to stock

Extract the flashme.zip to the desktop

Open RSD Lite and click on the ... symbol

In the box, go to desktop and choose "default_flash_targa"

Put your phone in Fastboot Mode

Click Start

If anyone used this method...

[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I did unr3l3as3droot and forever root first. Then I did the path saver. Then I flashed 896 and 901. After that, I downloaded the 902 ota but didn't install it. Moved it from /cache to the external SD card. Then I turned the phone off. To turn it back on, I hit both volume up and down as I powered it back on. That took me to a different menu that I can't currently think of the name but that is where you will flash 902 at. Remember that the 902 update has 901 in its file name when flashing. If you come across a triangle thing, hit volume up and down and the update will flash.
