[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techsniffer:
I did a search and found a similar topic which referred to Odin but I'm not to familiar with that software or its use.

I encrypted my Samsung Galaxy Nexus several months ago and now I want to decrypt the drive and wipe the information. Nothing I have tried has worked so far.

The option to perform a factory reset through the OS has not worked. I make the selection, enter in my passphrase, the phone reboots into the green robot screen (like it was updating) then when it boots back up it asks me to enter in the encryption passphrase again and I do then it takes me to my un-wiped phone.

I have also attempted to reset it with the ClockworkMod Recovery and it will not work either. Giving an "Error mounting data!" message and similar message for the rest

I have my Nexus unlocked and rooted but it is running stock other than those two.

Could someone tell me or point me to a proper step by step process to fix this?

first, learn to write useful topic title, its there for purpose, i believe you can edit it still.

second, your phone have sim-lock which also means its fastboot is locked.

third, you can unlock all that with setool. find someone who have it, you can search user with nick jinx13, he can do it over the internet, but don't know the price, you will ask him that.

Hi, have a look to the forums rules:

1. Search before posting.

Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.

3. Post only using a clear subject and message.

You're most likely to receive a helpful answer to your question if you use a short subject title that describes your problem and a message that explains in detail what your problem is and what you've tried to solve it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mariachi202:
Nice elaboration.

Yet I must object to a few points.

First off, you have to loosen up a little. Deleting unneeded apps, ok, but disabling sync, not using 3g etc... That doesn' t sound pretty smartphoney, does it?

Second, yes, battery life is great, yet deep sleep has nothing to do with it. Deep sleep (or deep idle, or didle) is only effective if you listen to music on your phone a lot. Its implications on battery life in daily normal usage are next to none. Mind you, less than none.

I never turn off my Wi - Fi or sync, brightness is at 60 percent, and i get an average of half an hour of talks a day, including viber talks, and i can still sqeeze two days of average battery life. Devil kernel has never been good for battery life for me, I see it as performance oriented.

My setup is the Tiramisu 1.9.5 rom,

MNICS 202LR kernel overclocked to 1128,

and the ZSJPG modem.

Just my two cents.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mariachi202:
On another note, everything on thos topic is pretty vague, because about 80% of the battery usage really comes down to the user and his usage of the phone, it's very individual.

On a third note, I presume we both don't live in an post-apocalyptic environment, where power sockets are as rare as smart politicians are today. :)

So if you can get by the day with your phone needs fulfilled, charge your phone.

Oh yes, and moving wallpaper is enabled and i use BLN.

Darn shame BetterBatteryStats ain't free (no credit card here... well, it's complicated...)

What's the free way to do it?

What we really need is for someone to do this with the different kernels on i9000:

Matrix kernel would be nice!

Which kernels do we feel are particular good on battery life? I'd be happy with a 30fps screen heck to save 10% battery!

Here is the link to the RUU that you flash through the bootloader. If you are rooted, use the S-on tool first (rename zip to PC36IMG and remember to change name after phone reboots before you boot back to bootloader to flash RUU PC36img zip), and then flash RUU this will get you completely back to stock.

Why has the ''is this necessary'' thread been deleted ? and the other one locked ?

There was more people against this opening of a sub-forum than there was for it.

Please listen to us and remove this tmobile section, It isnt needed, and deleting the threads that wanted this section gone is way out of order.. We didnt break any rules..

This is our section, our phone, We dont need nor want this silly tmobile section.. So please remove it !!

If you think im wrong............Im not, Allow me to open a poll as to whether we should keep it or not ??

c'mon mods be fair ??!!??!!
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
It got removed because it would just start issues with other members of the forum for people who want it or not same thing with this thread.

This is the wrong section your posting in anyway.

What's so hard about looking in other section and looking in T-Mobile section.

The administrators on the site said they want it as a local moderator just spoke to them about it, Majority want it anyway.

To be fair i agree with azzle here,bit stupid to have some extra thread for tmobile..end of the day this can all be kept in the android dev section. This is daft.

OK people, i have re-named this thread and moved it to its proper section. I will allow this to continue, unless it turns into a flame war. We all have opinions, i ask you to respect others.

:D cheers man ! If its what the people want.. Keep it.. I just think its gunna cause so much confusion when development really gets going.. That things would have been better left how they were..

[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
The point is, we have so little development as it is, that splitting the forum into two makes it look like we have even less development, and that could deter people away from the phone and thus more development. Both phones can use both roms so there is no point. If there are small issues such as wifi, we can have stickies.

[HTC One S] nickmv:
Agreed josh. I was told by senior mods that they did it because "it's what users wanted". Well, that's kind of interesting, because we're NOT wanting it, and we're those users. The initial confusion came on launch day, and that was because nobody was familiar with whether the devices differed. Guides simply need to be updated to reflect compatibility. Now, instead, we've got 2 forums, and in an attempt to alleviate the confusion, they have only caused further confusion, because now it REALLY looks like the devices are different when they are in fact NOT.

When a dev gets into modding, one of the obvious questions is "How many different devices do I have to work with here?". Based off our forum layout, it looks like we've got 2 different devices. This could lead developers to believe that there's more work to be done than necessary to achieve compatibility with both.
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
ndsvic suidas

I am on the fence with this one.

While I agree that if a rom developed for EU works - for the majority - and only does not function on a scale that reaches very select users, then the dual dev section is not needed.

However, in that same logic, if a rom developed that is incompatible with the counterpart phones due to whatever reason, and something happens while it was not labeled as EU/US or TMOUS or whatever tag a dev would use, then that would start a stir in the forum, IMO, deterring users from moving to this phone and potentially hurting development.

While i agree that it should be SOP to label the rom as EU or US, at the very least posting inside the thread if its for EU or US in the download links. Having a split forum this early in the development phase could hurt the growth of the phone's custom roms.

This being my second android phone, I myself am considering taking a shot at developing a custom TMOUS minimalist rom. (running as little as possible and having the bare necessities required to run the phone) Thinking of a battery saver galore build, completely Sense Free.
[HTC One S] nickmv:
I came from the Nexus S, and the dev forum was split into 2 forums - 1 for the GSM Nexus S, and 1 for the CDMA Sprint Nexus S 4G.

I was a i9020T GSM model. In the very same forum, mods and devs posted ROMs for i9020T, i9020A (att), and i9023 (SLCD model , mostly overseas). Not once was there ever a problem. I just think it's kind of silly that we're being told "it's what users want", and yet we clearly don't want it, atleast the majority don't. I was told it was to help with new users, but here's the thing....this isnt newbforums.com or something. This is XDA DEVELOPERS. Enthusiasts and the tech crowd come here. I'm not saying new users don't, because we see them every day, but they've got their own issue with getting up-to-speed, and I fail to see how fragmenting the community into 2 dev forums helps alleviate the issue. Newbs will be newbs. They just have to read stuff....
[HTC One S] majalo:
Is it possible that I can agree with everyone? Probably a result of my incessant blind optimism.

Clearly, there is a divide here. Some people want the separate forum, others don't. Both arguments seem to stem from the same desire... to maximize development for their specific phones. I emphasize like crazy with you.

People that don't want the split fear that this will slow development by dividing troops and possibly give the appearance of a lesser interest from the dev community. However, having two sides essentially working on the "same" device may even prove beneficial in the end.

People that do want it are likely "we" Americans who always fear upon a devices release that there will be some minor radio variance that will cause our new, $600 baby to turn paperweight. Having a T-Mo(US) thread gives someone like me, with a lesser experience in the dev world, more confidence to take the leap into modding a device. I'm more likely to set up a dev environment, root my phone, and become more active in the community. The more people willing to get their feet wet should help everyone, regardless of continent, in the end.

Lastly, the apparent lack of interest may instead be a lack of knowledge. What other snapdragon S4 Krait phones have been released? AFAIK, there hasn't been a single device dropped with this chip, so development will be decidedly difficult until HTC makes available their GPL code. They probably aren't terribly eager to give other phone manufacturers the fruits of their labor, and money, by aiding them prep the S4 phones/tablets that will inevitably follow.

I am incredibly eager to sink my teeth into the underbelly of the one S. I can accept that for the time being, customization may likely be limited to sense-based mods, as I for one am certainly unwilling to part with what is one of the most impressive cameras ever released on a phone. But I do incredibly miss my notification pull down power switches.
[HTC One S] nickmv:
I respect your opinion. Please email HTCdev and express your displeasure at their daily willful GPL violations. That code lawfully belongs in the hands of the open source community.
[HTC One S] maggi101:
edited.
[HTC One S] nickmv:
See, what we're trying to get at is that there isn't any "flash this version or that version", because there's only 1 version: the HTC One S. Unless you're flashing radios, and custom ROMs should typically NEVER have custom radios unless clearly indicated, then it doesn't matter.

And the Galaxy S was divided into subforums because the actual hardware cofigurations, button layouts, chips, etc, varied quite a bit from model to model, whether it was the international SGS, the T-Mo Vibrant, The Verizon Continuum (vastly different), or the ATT version.

The One S is a single phone, with 2 slightly different radio versions. Other than that radio, they are absolutely identical.
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Everyone talking about radios causing a brick should know we can't even flash radios without S-Off so until then radios are a non-issue. Even still, radios likely won't cause bricks. On the Galaxy Nexus you have users in Europe flashing Japanese radios and I personally had a German radio on mine here in the US.
[HTC One S] majalo:
I share your pain. And I already have after reading your posts on the dev forums, even if I'm a bit skeptical it will make an impact.

I understand your point. I was more playing devil's advocate and suggesting the possibility that having a T-Mo(US) dev forum might bring in more developers, not trying to argue whether there are any hardware differences between the two, or in this case one, device(s).
