[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chalfont_court:
Hello All,

I recently upgraded my GT-I9000 to CWM10 JellyBean 4.1.2 a week ago and all was fine until last night when I was trying to follow one of the youtube videos to increase the internal memory on my phone. I tried it on my phone and for some reason my phone was stuck in the CWM recovery mode. When I rebooted, the phone was going back into recovery mode. I was panicking and in that rush, I tried doing a reset, clear data, clear cache, dalvik and all other stuff on the recovery mode menu. When nothing worked, I tried re-flashing the JB 4.1.2 from recovery mode. This flashing was erroring after 30% and was returning into recovery mode again. I also tried to use odin to flash the Android 2.3 which didn't work and now it goes into the CWM Recovery v3.0.0.5 :(

Could someone please let me know how to get my phone back to work.

I would be really thankful to you all.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trak-X:
First of all you have posted in the wrong section. This is only for development.

To get back the recovery, flash http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufe....1_Jelly_Helly_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20121101.tar in Odin from computer and then flash the Hellybean zip again from the phone.

That is what you should do.

PS: Download the Hellybean zip again. The one that you have now might be corrupted. You need to go into Download mode with 3 Button Combo to use Odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chalfont_court:
Apologies for posting in the wrong section. Could the mod's please move this thread to the correct section please.

Thanks Trak-X the first half of your adivse worked for me (the ODIN bit) and I am now able to get into CWM recovery. I tried reflashing the Hellybean zip but it kept erroring at 10%. Error message is shown below

Installing HellyBean

GSM instllation

assert failed: run_program("/tmp/udater.sh")==0

I also downloaded a new Hellybean zip and tried reflashing with no luck and same error message. Pls advise on how I can go further now. I have a 2.3.6 rom downloaded, shall I flash this first to see if it works and if it does, I can flash Hellybean later.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chalfont_court:
Fixed!!!

I installed the google apps file and for some reason the phone booted properly this time. Don't know how gapps installation fixed this issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mathsiel:
I hope someone can help me.

I cannot enter in recovery. Just in Download mode. But my PC doesn't recognise my phone so I can't flash in Odin.

Don't know what to do!?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] will_76:
So i tried to flash a kernel and now stuck in the white samsung logo over and over? Can i Odin flash a stock P3113 and go from there? Looking for a file but everyone i found is no longer up and running?

HELPPPPPPPP guys :(

Try this maybe
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] will_76:
Thats the thread I found with links I couldn't get to work. I did get to boot into CWM. Could I just save something like CM10 to a micro sd boot into CWM and flash it to get me up and running again?

Any help would be great I have never really broke a device before and kinda bummed :(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] kdog48:
If you can get into cwm just try formatting your SD and then you'll have to flash a zip or ROM using cwm or odin
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] will_76:
The good news is I just out in a brand new sd card and formatted it before I pulled this awesome stunt. So if I save the CM10 zip on my PC desktop I can just use Odin to flash it? Or do I need to save it to my micro sd and the CWM from my tablet boot screen?

So sorry just want to make sure I'm set when I get home
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] kdog48:
You need to save to your SD and then flash with cmw :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] will_76:
You guys rock! First time ROMing this device due to my stupidity. Put CM10 on it last night and love it so far but I guess now on to see what else is out there too. Just heard so much about CM10 figured I would hit that one up first.

Just a big thanks again to the site, posters and developers. Cheers :good:
[HTC One V] Tastycakess:
It's weird, the other day w/ no changes at all to my phone my laptop couldn't connect properly to my wifi tether on the stock sense rom, but it has been working for a few weeks w/o issues. So my laptop connects and just sits on "connection limited" and can't populate an IPv4 address. My tablet sits on "obtaining IP address". I flash a cm10 rom and it just happens to work, flash back and forth and it just never works on sense and always on cm, wth?? lol

Also adhoc always fails on this phone :/
[HTC One V] Ruling:
maybe you need to flash a boot for stock rom.

Welcome to the UK Nexus 4 thread on XDA Developers

CONTRACT PRICE COMPARISON

As is the norm, many of you are planning on obtaining the device SIM-free and unlocked for as little as possible. You may also be considering searching for a good value-for-money SIM-only contract. Here is a handy chart to help make your decision. If you need more information on the individual contracts, check the network's website.

If you're planning on going with 3/Three for the first time, be sure to check out Quidco's deals (thanks

Turbotab

) and TopCashBack's deals (thanks

Azza_1

) for added cashback and, technically, money off.

If contracts aren't your thing you can always go for a decent giffgaff goodybag. Giffgaff uses O2's network and masts for signal so you know you'll get a decent amount of coverage.

RETAIL SIM-FREE PURCHASING GUIDE

RETAIL CONTRACT PURCHASING GUIDE

NOTICES

If ordered from Play, TNT will be delivering your Nexus devices. When entering the tracking number on TNT's site, remember to track as a reference number, not a consignment number.

The Nexus 4 is currently in stock on Google Play. This will forever be the best place to buy the phone, provided you can wait upto a week for its arrival. :P

DETAILS

TNT do not do Saturday deliveries for the Nexus devices.

If you have multiple items in your order, Google will wait until they have both of those items in stock before they despatch your order.

PLEASE NOTE! ALL RETAIL NEXUS 4 "VARIATIONS" ARE IDENTICAL TO THE GOOGLE PLAY MODELS!

UNLOCKED, NO BRANDING, NO APPS, ETC. THIS WRITING IS BIG AND I HATE IT.

30/12/2012: I apologise for my inactivity in this thread. Lots has been going on in life and I just haven't thought to check here. I'll try to stay on top of this main post, but I doubt I'll be getting involved with thread conversations very often. If you need me to edit this in any way or you have any information that could be useful, please send me a PM.

22/04/2013: I would once again like to apologise for the lack of updates here. I have been busy doing university work, so I haven't had any time to update this until now. All the spreadsheet stuff has been updated.

TeRRa4.
[Nexus 4 General] vizzy:
Are they what the final contracts are ? Or just speculation at the moment ?
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
It's what's listed on CPW. I'm not sure if these prices are increased because it's going through CPW and not directly through the network provider or if they're the prices O2 and Vodafone will be providing. However, O2 and Vodafone are the only networks currently providing information regarding contracts with the Nexus 4 included.
[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
Giffgaff are raising their prices in a few days, now unlimited texts & data and 250 mins well be £12 a month. Still a great deal though.

You'd have to be insane to buy the N4 on one of those ridiculous contracts when it's so cheap sim free.
[Nexus 4 General] ilukecurtis:
Very true, although there is still a £10 goodybag which is the same, only now it only has 1GB of data... (I say only, this is still ample amounts.)

The way I see it, why go contract on the N4, its like this phone is designed to be used on PAYG essentially. The network providers a really ripping the public off which their contracts, its disgusting.
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Yeah, I saw something about their goodybag changes.

Some people won't have the money upfront though, tempting them into a contract, sadly. I wanted to put that into perspective in the long-term.
[Nexus 4 General] ste1164:
Yea some people I know won't pay £279 upfront because its too much. But they would get it on contract.
[Nexus 4 General] E3SEL:
I suggest buying outright if you can. £279 for phone + (£12*24) for the 2 months = £567. Divide that buy 24 and you get £23.60 per month. For that you'll get 250 minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited data, and unlimited minutes to other people on giff gaff. That's assuming you pay for giff gaff every month straight away, and with the £12 goody bag. You can also subtract costs for when you go on holiday, you wont have to continue paying, and other such things.
[Nexus 4 General] r0cafella:
The 3 options look good but i'm looking for a plan which includes unlimited tethering too. Seems almost impossible to find one though :(
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
3 don't charge for tethering, as far as I'm aware. I've never been charged for it, at least.
[Nexus 4 General] Brodel:
Even better, imo, is the Virgin 30 day rolling contract. £12 a month, 1200mins, unltd texts, 1GB internet. That's what I'll be using when I get my Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 General] leerobson99:
Moi. I've preordered mine through cpw on Vodafone as I'm upgrading. It says delivery on 13th so I hope it comes then!

I wonder if the play store lets people buy n4 before 13th so they are delivered by then?
[Nexus 4 General] r0cafella:
There pricing Policy states tethering only available on the "One Plan" not on the all you can eat data plan.

Problem is i don't need unlimited calls. I wish a network operator would allow us to configure our own packages instead of being stuck with the crap they offer.
[Nexus 4 General] ste1164:
I'm on the 3 £12.90 plan and have tethered loads they haven't done anything yet :P
[Nexus 4 General] r0cafella:
I'll give it a go hopefully on a rolling month - month contract basis if there are any to see how it works. If they stop me tethering i can just jump ship :D
[Nexus 4 General] TubbyHamster:
With 3 you can add all ypu can eat data to any contract for £3 per month.

So if you are not fussed about voice minutes apparently you can get the £6.90 12 month contract that gives 200mins and 5000 texts then pay a further £3 per month for all you can eat data making it £9.90 per month... that's what I plan on doing.

I am on GiffGaff at the moment and don't like the increase to £12, all I use are texts and data. :)
[Nexus 4 General] spvnexus:
I've been on GiffGaff for over a year now, I really like the freedom and the package prices. I agree that you would be mad taking a contract for a phone that's so cheap to pick up from Google play.
[Nexus 4 General] supercakefish:
Here's my deal folks:

Tesco Mobile 1 month rolling contract: £15/month for 1000 minutes/5000 texts/2GB data (all you need is 30 days notice to cancel at anytime of year)

Total cost =

-> £180 for 1 year

-> £360 for 2 years

Not bad eh?

Also Tesco Mobile offers deals down to £7.50/month.

Going for unlocked phones are always the most cost effective option in the long term!!!
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Thanks for the responses, guys! I've added them to the list in my first post. :D

Thanks for this! Definitely going for that when I'm due for a contract upgrade/update/change in April. :D
[Nexus 4 General] mojo22:
Great thread, very helpful!

More importantly which service provider offers the best speed? No point in having unlimited if its capped to 1mb download speed.

----

Add T-mobile to your list Sim free (click link to find more prices):

12months contract

300mins

5000texts

750mb

£13

1month same deal

£15.50

If T-mobile offers DCHSPA+ (or whats it called) I might settle for this contract otherwise the tesco and virgin deals seems sweet.

Just a FYI, Virgin uses O2 network. Anyone know what download speed O2 offers? and if coverage is good.
[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
Just listed my HOX on eBay, the ball is finally rolling
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I agree. Carriers seem to charge insane amounts for phones - particularly the iPhone, despite how over-priced that device is anyway.

Yeah, I'm hoping the Nexus 4 lasts at least two years. I don't plan to upgrade until then. If I do upgrade, however, it'll be through my carrier. I'll be getting a 12-month SIM only contract in April and then, maybe, I'll upgrade after that, depending on what's out there. Doubt I'll get bored of the N4 any time soon, though. :P
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I messed with the layout a bit, condensing the size of the first post as a result. I've also added information on the Carphone Warhouse releases and the Wireless Charging Orb accessory.

I'll be adding more information tomorrow after I phone Carphone Warehouse and Google again. I have more questions.
[Nexus 4 General] TubbyHamster:
Might be worth removing the 200 mins Three deal, a lot if people on the hotukdeals thread reporting having to ring up multiple times and arguing to get it as an exception.

Looks like Three decided to change it a few days ago.

Still works for the 600 though...
[Nexus 4 General] huntedsoul12:
Yesterday I was at Westfield carphonewarehouse, london. I asked a guy about the release date and he confirms that it will be 14th(I.e. Wednesday) but then when I asked him about the pricing (goolgestore vs CPW) that guys just laughed and said "oh! I cant tell you that haha" lol
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Thanks for the heads up. I've updated the chart accordingly.

I'm going to call Carphone Warhouse Southampton today and see if they can give me any details on it. I'll argue it by saying it's so I know whether or not to bother ordering from the Play store. If they don't give me a price I reckon I'll go to Google to buy it. :P
[Nexus 4 General] huntedsoul12:
Please do share with us :)

I'm also on the same boat :D
[Nexus 4 General] MattSkeet:
There is something wrong with 3 prices.

I'm on monthly rollover contract at £12.90 200 min, 5000txt and unlimited data...
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
Prices in first post on three are for 12 month contract, not 30 day.
[Nexus 4 General] james_d:
Hi guys just wondering if you have any experience of this; I've currently got a SGS2 on an Orange contract with 7 or so months left. So my plan is to by a N4 and use my remaining contract. Obviously this still has an old style sim. What's the best way of getting a micro sim from Orange, shop/phone/getting out a knife and following a Youtube video?

Also those of you looking to get money back from your existing phone I've found Asda to be very good if you don't fancy the selling on ebay headaches.
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
When will the Nexus 4 go on sale in Carphone Warehouse stores?

"End of the week, maybe tomorrow or Wednesday. Not 100% on that at the moment."

Any idea of the stock levels you'll be getting?

"We're not 100%. We should be getting enough, but we're not sure. HQ have been holding information back from us on purpose."

How much will it be SIM-free?

"There aren't any prices listed on our database at the moment, which is odd considering it's coming out tomorrow."

The guy I spoke to went on to say there's no guarantee that CPW will be selling it SIM-free from Tuesday, it might take them a little while before they start doing that. Probably to increase stock levels. I'm not sure.

Remember to take this with a grain of salt. The store members don't know everything and they could be wrong, however all information I'm providing has come from two phone calls with two different stores in Southampton.

Judging by this it's probably best that people order from Google Play. You should get it by Wednesday if you order early enough. :P
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Go into Orange, they should cut it down at no charge. That's how I'm cutting my mini-SIM down to a micro-SIM - I'm going into a 3 Store and they'll do it there and then. :)
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
Any of those options will work. I'm in the same situation with 7 months left on my Vodafone contract, also got an SGS2.

I called vodafone yesterday and they've despatched a micro-sim to me today. Just give Orange a call.
[Nexus 4 General] Higgsy:
I'm on Talkmobile and I just sent them an email asking if they would mind sendng me a new SIM - They called me the next morning saying yes no problem, so should have it tomorrow. I bought one of those micro sim cutters, but the talkmobile "chip" is too big and impossible to cut it with the sim cutter or indeed craft knife. Thought that was pretty good customer service.

oh and I popped into my local cpw this am - they said they wouldn't be getting stock this week and it is currently only available on contract
[Nexus 4 General] pichu23:
why don't you guys just use giffgaff from O2 ?

it's only 12 pounds a month with unlimited text (to any carrier) and calls to giffgaff, 250 minutes to others, and unlimited data. :D
[Nexus 4 General] Sinbad_NI:
Another vote for giffgaff from me. Can stream music and video all day without any data usage concern.

Must say its not part of O2 though, they just use/rent the O2 network.
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I would, but I'm already on Three and I'm locked in a contract with them until April. When I renew in April I should be able to get a cheap deal from them as I've been with them for almost three years now. The deal they give me should be better value than giffgaff, in theory. :D
[Nexus 4 General] Higgsy:
Yeah I'm locked into contract here too until April, then I will look what's available, managed to reduce my talkmobile to 200 mins 500mb data 5000 text for £10 as I was paying £25 for 500 mins/5000 text/unlimited data which I never used. Can't wait to get off the Vodafone network, the 3g is crap and patchy round my end and I live 3 miles from Birmingham City Centre!
[Nexus 4 General] Larac:
I'll be sticking with GiffGaff for a while yet, two reasons:

1) I've had no issues at all unlike T-Mobile (data caps, poor signal, incorrect billing)

2) I've built up a good chunk of payback credit from getting other people onto the network.

Oh and hurry up with letting us place orders already
[Nexus 4 General] nikzDHD:
So whose going to the o2 arena and camping it out to be one of the first who get's suckered up to a 2 year contract on a ridiculous priced contract just so you get to go on top of the o2 and bag yourself a free LG TV? :p
[Nexus 4 General] Marshton:
Just out of interest, if anyone has the 3 week email, try contacting Google for Shipping information at http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/request.py?&contact_type=devices_shipping_status

I get an automated response saying it should ship tonight and I'm interested to see if those on back order receive the same email.

Please state if you have multiple Nexus 4s in the order, to see if that makes a difference.
[Nexus 4 General] mys3:
Im in nexus limbo, ordered 1 phone with a bumper. I haven't recieved shipped email or backorder email yet
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
Whatever it is, they needed twice as many!

To be honest, With all these orders in shambles, I have to admit TNT customer service is great! Google reps are very misinformed.
[Nexus 4 General] OriginalBilly:
Got the same automated reply.
[Nexus 4 General] phillevy:
Prophetic!
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
Look at it this way, when we all finally get our Nexus', We'll be even happier! :D
[Nexus 4 General] jonkrav:
The same exact thing happened with the Nexus 7 release, not surprised at all.
[Nexus 4 General] TonyHoyle:
3 weeks?

That means they expected the first batch to sell out in that time (because you want your stock to hit zero just as the new stock arrives, ideally).

Instead it sold out in about 20 minutes, or 1,500 times faster than they predicted. (Or they wanted to sell out to generate headlines).
[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
No reply. I didn't get any reply last time either. Ordered just the one.
[Nexus 4 General] THFourteen:
Doh, got the same email.

Ah we'll ill wait it out I suppose, nothing wrong with my galaxy note 1 really as long as the recycle price stays at 195.

What with this and the lack of update on my ipad mini lte preorder, I seem to be a jinx for technology these days
[Nexus 4 General] marra2:
Slap jellybean on your note 1 and put it on eBay it'll fetch close to 300 ! !
[Nexus 4 General] laminarpanda:
So, got the same automated message, but when I called Google they told me it was backordered.

It's really pathetic! This is getting worse and worse. They can't even give accurate information...
[Nexus 4 General] RichySamui:
O2 supposedly have received stock of the Nexus 4 tonight, which will be available in the morning. Off contract £399. Obviously I wouldn't dream of queuing up outside the store, but I may loiter around in the general vicinity ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Barso1:
I have not received my 3 week notice yet but I now know it's coming.

I sold my galaxyS3 once I got my pre-order accepted in the knowledge that it would arrive this week.

How do these huge companies screw up on things such as this, they should have this nailed down perfectly.

This is my first experience with buying google and moving unto their ecosystem but to be honest, apple are away ahead of these guys.
[Nexus 4 General] 3473:
I ain't waiting 3 weeks. Picked up an 8x. Should go nicely with my nexus 10 (which hasn't been delivered)

May still get a nexus 4 if I don't like the 8x though
[Nexus 4 General] 12078215:
I just rang Google and they said my phone was on the back order list but they also said there is a chance it could arrive in the next few days. WTF?
[Nexus 4 General] THFourteen:
Theres the tiniest of scuffs on the screen... plus 16%ebay and paypal fees, and dealing with scammers.... can be more trouble than its worth
[Nexus 4 General] timmy1980:
I got the dreaded 3 week email but called Google just to see what they had to say when asked for details about my Nexus 4 order... "it should ship in the next day or two"...

We'll see!!!
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
To those of you who got placed on back order what does your google play account now say under status and is it still pending in google wallet? Thanks for your time :)
[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
So it sounds like Google won't have stock for around 3 weeks then. Screw that, time to take my HOX eBay auction down.

I'm glad they're making people who ordered multiple devices wait though, if that is the case
[Nexus 4 General] MattSkeet:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LG-GOOGLE...31736?pt=UK_Mobile_Phones&hash=item20cd794ab8

Which one of you is selling it ? :)
[Nexus 4 General] ronniel88:
Not sure why people are still ringing Google, you would get more accurate information about your order by ringing the talking clock!!
[Nexus 4 General] Barguast:
Are these emails, shipping confirmations and backorders, still going out? Has anyone received one in the last five minutes or so?

Still waiting for something... anything!

Also, those on backorder, what does your order look like? Bumper, etc.
[Nexus 4 General] jaybeerex:
still all the same, nothing has changed.
[Nexus 4 General] chistery:
I only ordered one, and having to wait. They should have limited it to one per person in the first place.
[Nexus 4 General] zibby64:
1 phone, 1 bumper on backorder. Order placed at 8:19 - still has estimated shipping for today + pending on wallet
[Nexus 4 General] sjgore:
More importantly, which idiot is buying it?

£760! You can buy it from O2 for £399! :eek:
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
Was at the gym working out.

Just saw I received an email saying that my Nexus 4 is on back order and that they expect to ship it within 3 weeks.

This is just inadmissible!

This whole process of ordering the nexus has just been a complete joke.

And by a company I respected.

This was the last drop.

I will cancel my order and I done with Android.

I don't care if the phone is the best price and all that. The customer service is a total joke.

I will be paying more but I will buy a phone and tablet from a company that doesn't treat their customers like garbage!

Google, you really disapointed me, but I am the customer and I have a choice, so s***w you!
