[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piezo5:
Hi everyone, I had a problem with my previous nexus s (I have since gotten a working replacement) and I was wondering where exactly I messed up so in the future I can avoid this :)

Here is what I did on my previous phone:

1. I flashed ics onto my device from the ota update package from androidcentral, it was 4.0.3. (This worked great and I had it on my phone for 2-3 months before I tried the next steps.)

2. I rooted my device successfully using the guide at nexusshacks.

3. I also flashed TWRP recovery (fastboot) and superuser using the above guide/links

4. When I would turn off my phone it would boot to a screen with a red triangle and an opened android bot. So what I would have to do is flash twrp recovery everytime I turned the phone on just to get it to work.

5. What I wanted to do was keep the stock rom but still have twrp recovery without it making me reflash it on every boot. So I clicked install and tried to flash the stock rom (update package from the link in step 1) with twrp recovery. It then turned off my phone and hard bricked it. I couldn't turn it on anymore and a new battery didn't fix it.

I was able to get a replacement now and I was just wondering at which step did I go wrong? I THINK that I should have wiped my cache before I tried to reflash the stock rom but maybe I'm way off base here. This is why I posted a question here so hopefully some of you guys can help.

I did think about posting in another thread, but I didn't wanna threadjack or anything... and his problem also seemed a bit different then mine. Also, sorry about not being able to provide the specific links it won't let me post them until I've posted 8 times.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v3rk:
I don't know for sure but team win recovery has been reported to corrupt the device's efs directory. I've even had problems myself using clockwork recovery. I've moved on to razor recovery and haven't looked back.

This is the most flash-friendly phone I've ever owned, and razor recovery rivals amon ra (which was awesome on my g1 and evo). I really think it may have just been the recovery you were using... Somebody correct me if i'm wrong.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jishnu7:
I had once corrupted one of the partition. I fixed to by flashing stock recovery and stock rom.

Use adam outler's unbrickable mod tool. It can be found in android development section.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piezo5:
Thanks for the replies.

That's interesting about twrp... I didn't know that. Truth be told, the only reason I went for it over other ones like clockwork mod was because the UI looked pretty nice and easy to use. Also the guide I followed at nexusshacks used that, so I wanted to stay consistent with it.

jishnu7, it's a little late for that now however as I actually have already received a working replacement from my carrier, but in the future if something ever does go wrong (hopefully not) I will definitely check that out.

The main thing I'm wondering is if it messed up because I tried to reflash the stock rom essentially over top itself (was hoping that by doing that, it would stop making me reflash twrp on every reboot) or if it was because I didn't wipe the cache before the flash.

Also, what I really wanted to do with my phone was to keep the stock rom but be able to overclock my cpu/gpu. I was hoping I could set different overclocks for different things (I've heard of kernels where you can downclock your phone when the screens off and have it overclocked slightly while you're using it, that would be something I'd like to have). I figured to install those kernels I would have to root my phone, replace stock recovery and install superuser so that's why I tried to do that. Once again, I'm pretty new to all this stuff for my phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piezo5:
Sorry to bump this thread again, but I would really like to know how I could avoid what happened to me for the future. I think it's because I flashed the stock 4.0.3 rom over itself (was hoping that by doing that twrp recovery would stay on the phone after reboot).

What I would like to do is install something like CM9 or AOKP and use the Matr1x kernel so I could undervolt or overclock my phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shreee:
I seriously dont get how u hard bricked your phone...

the reason you are thinking is you reflashed stock rom without wiping cache, as per my experiece its not at all the reason

now, whats my experience??

...I have some fault with my nexus device and I'm working on it,,and I did everything I could do...one of the thing out of those things was reflashing stock rom without wiping,and i did it quite a several times...my device never hard bricked,,however it was soft bricked for many times,,and i recovered from it

so reflasing a stock rom over stock rom, over ICS, over some themed custom rom,will not hard brick your device, you must be missing something none of your steps sounds suspecious

P.S:- pulling out battey while flashing something like this sounds suspecious, never tried though
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piezo5:
I'm not sure what happened either to be quite honest with you. Since giving it another shot now with my new fresh phone I have had great success!

I did everything I wanted to do all in one go. Rooted it, install CWM touch, install AOKP (went with milestone 4 cuz I heard newest build 29 has some bugs) + gapps and installed matr1x kernel 18.5 bfs.

The only thing I did different from last time was installing CWM touch (instead of twrp) and flashed aokp this time (instead of reflashing 4.0.3 over itself).

[GT540 Optimus General] ItsHumf:
Ok so i'm a total noob, i've looked around at afew tutorials on xda and many other sites.

But i have a problem, i'm unable to boot into recovery mode, I've tried holding down the buttons and i even tried afew apps/widgets but the effect mentioned below occurs.

Also the boot logos do not appear when i turn my phone on (after it fails to boot into recovery or normal reboot), but the sounds/jingle does. I have to press the [turn off] button then the home button or else my phone stays on a black screen (with back-light but black).

Heres some information about my phone:

Model Number:

GT540

Firmware version:

2.1-Update1

Kernel version:

2.6.69

Lg-electronics@si-rd10-ubld01 #1

Fri Oct 15 12:47:03 EDT 2010

Software version:

GT540-V20b-OCT-15-2010

I am running 2.1 (offical lg) as far as i know, but then again i'm a total noob. I allready had 2.1 when i bought the phone.

I am rooted (used z4root).

I found this app named ROM Toolbox [By JRummy16] on the android market, and from what i've read you can install roms from it, So i was wondering if i had a rom image/.zip could i use this to flash a rom onto my phone?

If anyone has answers to any of my problems please post a link to a thread and any help is appricieated. Again, sorry for being a noob xD

Also if anyone needs more details i'm willing to co-operate. Thank you all for you time.
[GT540 Optimus General] hani93:
you need to flash fastboot 2.1 rom via kdz updater, and then flash recovey via fastboot

you need to boot into download mode and then use kdz

(or try to flash via that black screen, if yor computer find ur phone over usb cable)

Hi guys, didnt follow the forum for a while due to big problem with PC, so i need simple and clear answer to my question.

I have now baseband .56, firmware .42

Would OTA update to .62 remove ROOT or ROOT will be remain and functional.

My girl update shes xperia neo, and root remain and it is quitly functional, but dosent know how arc respond to this.

Also if ROOT is removed, how can i root it on .62

Thx
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im_iceman:
Root will remain if you upgrade OTA.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue-88:
remember don't ever update ota if you unlocked the bootloader
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuel-The-Droid:
It aint a big deal...nothing would happen! More or less you won't be able to update! Relocking the boot loader would do the thing! But if you removed some bloatware then you might consider flashing the same firmware you are using again, wiping everything and then rooting it again! And then doing the OTA update!

Making an nandroid backup before reflashing the firmware is required so that you can restore your apps and settings! Many people ran into the problem where ota update wont work even with locked boot loader and they pin pointed removing some system apps or bloatware for it! Well in that case i already suggested you! :-)

Hello!

Samsung has not yet updated accelerometer driver on Windows 8 CP and automatic rotation of the screen does not work. Somehow you can rotate the screen but it's complicated and takes a lot of time. I suggest using utilities which can solve that problem on our device. The screen rotation occurs with pressing the button "Rotation Lock " next to power button. Clicking right mouse button on the app icon in the tray there are rotation sequence settings available.

Thank You, this works great. I was wondering if there was a way to reduce the number of orientations to just two.

I am not allowed to put duplicates orientations in the settings and it would be more convenient to be able to revert back to the original orientation versus having to cycle through each possible orientation before getting back to the original.
[Windows 8 General] DrDaxxy:
Note that this application does not work when using Samsung's Touch Supporter, as it appears to use the Rotation Lock hotkey (Win+O) itself. OP: You should use a low level keyboard hook (assuming you wrote this in native code, not AutoHotkey or something similar, as AHK overrides existing hotkeys) to make this work.

Meanwhile I'm using a simple AHK script to run SwapRotation.exe (google it) when Rotation Lock (as mentioned above, equivalent to Win+O) is pressed.

I can't use the application, but I'd imagine setting (None) for rotations 3 and 4 should do the trick.

with G3 kernels you have CWM

Just a hint for kernel updates:

always have a directory with your actual (working) kernel on sd

if new kernel resides in bootloops or whatever, just boot into CWM and install your old (working) kernel

Normally a kernel update/downgrade doesnt require any backup, but youll never know.

always have a backup available (also on PC! -> SD card may crash!)

If you experience any recurrent problems with a new kernel, just downgrade easily to your older kernel via CWM.
