Hi, I have a problem with my galaxy nexus: one day it began rebooting continuosly as soon as android started. I could not restore it to factory settings since I have no time to reach the menu before it restarts

I decided to wipe it through fastboot but it did not work: I tried many times, the terminal says "OKEY finished" but then the device is just like before, nothing wiped, nothing flashed

I cannot understand what's happening, everything I do seems to be restored to previous state after It reboots

Just one detail one time after rebooting it managed to connect to the internet and on the notification box it appears something that was quite similiar to a spam but I could not read it completely since it rebooted

It was totally stock before the error: neither rooted nor custom rom

thanks for any help!

Hi, i have the same issue here. Yesterday it began rebooting continuously and the factory reset doesn't do anything. It says "data wipe complete" but when i reboot the system it's still my acount and still rebooting.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rohitvarkey:
Even I'm having the same problem since yesterday. It just started randomly rebooting. Boots up and after around 30 seconds reboots. I was running CM11 - M7. The weirdest part is that even factory resets from recovery isn't wiping anything. Also flashing a new bootloader also didn't work out. The phone is always in the same state when it boots up.

No. The only solution is a new board (the NAND is fried and that's soldered on the board..). As said you are not the only one. It sucks though..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
Hi All

Picked up a Nexus 4 a few days ago and only just noticed (as result of a call) that the proximity sensor is reporting that its "blocked" at all times, so the phone things its against my head. I can workaround this by using the "Power button to hang Up" option but at present cannot access any in call features.

When I look under good light the sensor, there are 2 areas so not sure which is the sensor, I can see what looks like a bubble under both. if you imagine what an air pocket looks like under a screen protector thats what it looks like but its behind the glass, perfectly centred. I guess its possible that something has broken here as a result of the drop, the top left corner was the point of impact, does that seem likely?

I got the phone cheap as it had a broke screen so have a new one coming. Its the full screen, glass and digitizer. Does anyone know of the sensor is part of the screen or does it sit behind and then I could be really screwed!

Ta
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
Ok so I did a little more reading and it seems that a gorilla has changed the screen on this phone in the past and he / she has used compound to stick the screen down and some of it has gone around the sensor and the resulting press down on the screen has created a few air pockets.

Looking less forward to changing the screen now as no doubt with my luck the "technician" will have used some crazy heat resistant glue!

Also....missing the speaker grille....funny how you only notice things after you have bought them!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp_Ark:
Search for proximity sensor fix after screen replacement here on xda. I've found out that if you switch sides of the little rubber /plastic cover that covers the proximity sensor, your problem will be solved. And the light sensor will work with no problems as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
Really?

From reading the thing to do is either make the height of the bushing a little larger, height wise. Or, to increase the diameter of the holes.

I like your fix the best though....no messing about, just rotate.

Will give it a go, thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp_Ark:
It will work for sure, I posted this fix on a YouTube screen replacement guide of octopus glues I think and its confirmed to work from a lot of people. Then if you use a custom rom go to brightness settings while having auto brightness enabled and try changing light sources from dark to very bright places to see the instant lux values you get. If you are not satisfied with the result try custom auto brightness values.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Yep, I discovered this "fix" in a random youtube comment (was that you [MENTION=3687720]Sp_Ark[/MENTION]?) just a few days ago, and it worked for me. Then I found a thread here that confirmed that this could be a solution (which could have saved me a week of frustration).

If there's actually something on the proximity sensor, then you might be screwed. Well, not really, or $10 from China. The module is a snap-in piece with connector ribbon that also has the headphone jack. The prox sensor is the smaller one on the right side (when looking at the screen).

Disassembly of the Nexus 4 is pretty simple compared to many other smartphones. You'll need a T5 TORX wrench/bit for the screws at the bottom, and a very small Phillips driver for all the screws in the inside. You'll also need a tool to split the 2 halves apart (your screen replacement might have come with tools). You can find a couple videos on youtube, as well as a detailed teardown (pics) at ifixit.com. If you have a hairdryer (or an actual heat gun) you can make the process easier by softening the glue with heat, but it's not absolutely necessary. Just go slowly and be careful when prying the halves apart so you don't flex it too much and break the glass back.

Which screen assembly did you get? You can get it where it's just the LCD and the digitizer, and you can also get it that has the bezel and speaker with it. When I replaced the screen on my N4, I got the whole deal with the bezel and speaker, since it meant less work and fewer things to screw up.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
I got a "kit" off eBay, [URL="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181144377215?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181144377215?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT so it appears to be the complete screen. Ive watched a few videos but from the pictures it looks like the screen comes with the metal backing so I suspect I dont need to remove the old screen from the casing, thoughts?

Im expecting this to be the screen, bezel, and metal backing so I need to do is connect in my motherboard and all the other components.

Am I off in thinking this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrFredPhD:
That's the full part. The one you've posted is the type I usually go for, they're good quality so far.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
Awesome, I saw some cheaper screens but that one notes that its LG compliant etc. I bought a set of tools separately so will have all the stuff needed. Didnt think about the battery, will order one as it does make sense!

Thanks for the info, will update as I go.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp_Ark:
If you want to have a working battery like it used to be before removing it, you have to be very patient and extra careful while trying to remove it. Use some heat for the glue and try with something very thin like a nylon guitar pick. In anyway don't bent the battery and don't start from top. It will be easier to first remove the mother board. Iv already destroyed 4 5 batteries while trying to remove them. Sorry for my English, I hope you understand.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
Yea was extra careful, used a little heat. Someone has definately replaced the screen on the phone before but seems to have been careful enough as no screws missing etc, except the lost the little speaker grille :(

New screen in and working well. The proximity sensor seems to be working but it reports all or nothing rather than varied. Is this correct?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp_Ark:
Yeah this is normal.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Awesome! See, it wasn't too bad, was it? Ifixit gives the N4 a 7/10 for repairability, and that's pretty high for them. After replacing my N4 screen, friend/coworker asked if I could do the same for his HTC One M7 with a completely shattered, yet functional digitizer. I said "HEEEEEEEEEEELL NO!"
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bert682:
No, not with the correct tools. I will admit had I not bought the plastic tools, tweezers etc I may have struggled.

The battery was my main concern, its really stuck down, even though this had been replaced before and likely a less tacky glue used it was still tough. Had to use some heat to soften it and the "battery cover" has seen better days. Next thing to replace is that, just for piece of mind.

All in all, pretty nice experience, the phone seems more modular that other phones I have taken apart which is nice.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MisterGutsy:
I'm quite in a predicament here, as I bought a galaxy s4, the SCH-R970 to be exact, and it turns out it's simcard locked to CDMA and i have t-mobile, which is a GSM network provider.

apparently the hardware is the same between the r970, and the i9500, but the simcard slot is actually locked by cricket.

My question is, if i flash an i9500 rom to my phone, will i be able to use a GSM network? what if i flash the i9500 modem to my r970?

If this type of stuff can work on other android phones where the CDMA and GSM phones share the same hardware, why can't it work on the s4s? www(dot) internauta37.altervista(dot) org/how-and-patch-fully-enable-gsm-verizon-cdma-phones-android

Even the HTC one has this type of support, but not as many people are developing things and focusing on the r970. I'm sure its possible, because ive heard people getting calls to work, but not messaging. if we can go that far, im sure we can do more.

I'm really desperate to find a fix for this, because i'm pretty deep into this phone. My last option is to sell it, but who'd want to buy a cricket locked phone :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia C] lostangeles:
Hello, everyone!

Just wanted to tell you guys to calm down. System updates are always late.

If there is a possibility for unlocking bootloader on Sony's site, than the update will definitely be.

Even if it won't be 4.3, we will be able to create customs, such as MIUI, Cyanogenmod, or port roms from other phones.

You just dont know how to wait!
[Sony Xperia C] Lilop123:
Yeah. I don't care much if there's no 4.3 update. I just want our device's bootloader can be unlocked
[Sony Xperia C] bricazgrind:
Totally agree with you guys. Especially now that Android 4.4 is already available for other MT6589 devices, who really needs 4.3? And now that Sony is already issuing unlock codes, hopefully the next update will result in the much awaited bootloader unlock "yes" status.

Hi

I noticed that the boot delay problem I have is related to the Bluetooth function failure. Since the Bluetooth hardware didn´t work, the boot slows down to almost four minutes.

When I shake the phone a little harder, the Bluetooth start working again and the boot up time became normal. So it´s probably a connection problem between the Bluetooth chipset and the PCB.

I have a friend who is a cellphone technician and he said that he can try to re-hot and do some work at the PCB, but asked for the location of the Bluetooth IC or chipset. Someone could help me? I alrealy opened the Prophet and removed the shields, but I can´t figure which one is the Bluetooth radio.

Thanks

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StreetkillnHD:
as some may know some g3 units have a warmer color to it like mine. which what gives that slight yellow tint on whites.

im wondering is there an app or mod to adjust the screen temp.

i want to make it a little colder i dont mind it the way it is but maybe little cooler would look nicer.

i tried some apps from the store but it just adds overlay and dont modify the actual temp.

witch adds a layer of color and applying just blue 10-15 around there will deflect the yellow enough making it seem colder - bluer. but when comparing it to another phone with the original colder display it seems artificial but its better than having that yellow right?

I used to use Darker Pro and then switched to Twilight to reduce screen brightness & colour temperature. Darker has set colour options and Twilight has a slider to go from red-orange but it is not configurable past that.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisM75:
The problem with apps that overlay a colour cast is that they completely mess up the colour balance and contrast more than adjusting the actual temperature. If you adjust the blue for example all you do is greatly reduce the blue contrast.

At present all we can do is use something like trickster mod to adjust the RGB values. You can also change a few things by modifying the settings.db file, which is the same as manually changing the values that the accessibility settings menu does, but individually rather than the dumb 3-way adjustment LG want you to.
