[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shreee:
hello everyone,

I bought a Nexus s from a friend of mine

it had a little problem of multiple rebooting.I though I will flash it and everything will be okay.It didn't go that way.

Specification:-

Nexus S

Fastboot Mode

Product name - HERRING

HW Version - REV 52

Bootloader Version - 19020XXL1

BaseBand Version - 19020XXL1

Carrier info - EUR

this is what it says in bootloader

Problem:-

My new Nexus s reboots just in middle of nothing.(I'll explain what i mean here)

Q:-while it get rebooted what activity caused reboot

A:- it happens in number of occation

*sometimes I open market(play google now) browse some app and click on install button-rebooted

*sometimes I put mobile on chargin and open call log - rebooted

*sometime I open camera to click pic - rebooted

* sometimes I click on message - rebooted

*sometimes I just unlock the screen lock and rebooted

*most irritating - someone calling me it gets rebooted and the callers number dosent even save in call log

basically there is no pattern for rebooting

* sometimes even it just idle and getting charged it multiple times reboot itself

-and this happens several times a day

this problem was reported on many places before me

system didnt allowed me to post outside links where it was reported

and google has released fix for that as read somewhere where it was reported this bug in android 2.3.4 (atleast they said like that),

Solution I tried :-

downloaded stock rom where the uploader said it works fine and has no reboot issue it was android 2.3.6. so i assumed that reboot issue should not bother anymore

before installing Stock rom I followed guide to root on nexusshack.com and I did not forget to wipe all data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache,battery status

still problem exist

then I tried new ICS consider there will be no chance for this error

but again I failed to fix the reboot error

here is specification of Roms I tried, I used each of these ROM for more than 3 days,just to be ensure, that problem still persist

ICS 4.0.3 -

Baseband version - 19023XXKI1

Kernel Version - 3.0.8-gb55e9ac

android-build@apa28#1

Build number - IML74K

Android 2.3.6

Stock rom I tried -3 different stock rom download from different sites having same specification

Baseband version - 19023XXKF1

Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef

android-build@apa28#1

Build number - GRK39F

after this didnt worked I tried changing kernel...thinking that may fix this problem

I dont know how this could fix the problem ..but I was so desperate to fix it, I just give it a go,as I was and I am ready to do anything which is possible to do to fix it,

Kernel I tried-

netarchy-1.3.7-bfs-2.3.4-signed

netarchy-1.3.7-cfs-2.3.4-signed

netarchy-1.3.7-bfs-2.3.4-universal-signed

I will be very glad if any expert give me advice to what else I should do?

or this problem is due to faulty board and I have to pay to replace it?

I'm totally confused :confused:

can someone please help me out solving my problem, if it can be fixed

P.S:- for those who get angry and reply in tone everything works good on my nexus there is no such problem exist when someone says my nexus has reboot problem (saw this happening on many places where the bug was reported).I'm glad that your device works without problem, unluckly my device dosent, and I want to fix it, will be nice if you guys will be co-operative,rather than just mocking and spamming

Thanks in Advance
