Can someone help with the format for Nexus S

I wanted to see if someone might help me with this process on a Nexus S (4g). I have the partition information below, but before I proceed I am unclear on the format of the commands to use to recreate the structure correctly.

I would be very appreciative if anyone could help me, I am using adb shell, and I think I am close:

I have the same issue. There is simply a partition which can't be deleted, rewritten, flashed over ...

I have just return from service shop and they were not able to flash new rom with factory tools.

The only solution I see is change motherboard. At least a parts of your loved mobile will stay with you ...

my internal sd card can be read but nothing can be written on it,

when i try to delete partitions (adb in recovery mode) they are still there when i run print in parted

also in odin 3 "nand erase all" stays ~5 minutes and return 'failed'

the phone can be flashed with the rom it was in when it happened, but other roms would not load (altough can be flashed)

normal format sd from android have no effect either, the same if i try to write or delete files, it seem to work until remount or restart

all the content on sd card that was there when the problem started is still there (i think it started when i tried to flash MackayROM_CM9_galaxysmtd_2014_1.7.zip but not sure)

i read that the nand chip can be damaged, but isnt it including the 2gb area where i can still flash roms ?

anyone ? help,

thnx alot

I have the same problem on my SGS. I have to use external SDcard and mount it as an internal one to make all the applications work properly. It is strange, because only /sdcard partition is corrupted. System partition and internal memory (1,5GB for apps) works fine.

In fact, I can install only Gingerbread and ICS ROMs and I can't install JB and KK ROMs, it gives me Status 0 Error in Recovery. Only working ROMs I tested was stock JVZ, JW5, Tiramislim 2.0 ICS and Mackay ICS 2014.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] critikaster:
This did it for me:

mke2fs -q -L data -b 4096 -m 0 -F /dev/block/mmcblk0p43

Note that:

I had to unmount the data partition first though (via TWRP, because no unmount command available from cli).

I used mount to determine the block to be formatted (in my case /dev/block/mmcblk0p43)

Btw, this creates an ext2 partition, not ext4, but shouldn't pose a problem

My soft-bricked phone is booting Android again, w00t :victory:

HI, I finally got a rep to register the meid from my diamond in my boost mobile account.

He gave me the msl, I used it for ##mslno.# I iputed the MDN# and the MSID# and the phone reset itself.

How long it takes before I can use the phone to make calls? or is there any other step I need to follow to make it work?.

Thank you.

I Have my EVO 4g ready but I need this guy to be fully operational first :(.

Thank you.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh by the way, right now when i try to make a call, the operator ask me if I want to make a collect call ?????

Update...........

OK, I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the settings on the diamond, I Turned my EVO 4g that shares the same meid as the diamond, at I can make calls on the EVO, but the Diamond is a no go.

If it helps in something, I can make emergency call in the diamond, but when I'm in the dial pad screen in normal mode "no emergency" there is a little "open padlock icon" next to another Icon "a circle with two perpendicular lines crossing each other". I think that I'm in roaming mode maybe?

Thank you for the help.

-------------------------------------------------

Nevermind, I Flashed the original Sprint ROM and I got calls and text working, updated profile, now I also have internet/web. Looks like the previous owner was messing with it before I bought it.

Now, copying settings back to the EVO.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Last Edit,

Success, I have my EVO fully running on Boost Mobile, Calls, text, email, web, mms, everything running.

Thank you at all the people of this forum and all the tools and pointers. Just by lurking at this site I was able to do a complete Flash of my EVO to boost mobile in quiet a few Hours without knowing anything about this topic before.

Tks.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamba1:
Hi Everyone,

I'm running a rooted HTC Evo with Fresh Evo 3.4.0.1 on it. I understood that the reason AppBrain's fast web installer does not work is because the "Android ID" on the device is the same, and it needs to be unique...

I changed the Android ID, and now the phone only get's up to what I assume is loading the OS. It's the part where you hear "fresh" and see the penguin.

It repeats fresh over and over again, but never loads the OS.

Any ideas on what might be going on and how I can fix it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamba1:
In case anyone is interested, I figured this out. It was a bit of a process, but was able to get my system to boot again doing the following:

1. Booted into recovery mode

2. Used 'nandroid' to back up bad system (but it was the data partition that I was interested in.

3. Performed a clean wipe/factory reset (the system booted up fine)

4. From the clean reset, grabbed out of the data partition the file "/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db". Put this file on my sdcard.

5. Rebooted the device and went back into recovery mode.

6. Used 'nandroid' to restore the bad system back

7. Copied the clean 'settings.db' over the bad one.

8. Rebooted and everything was fine. I had lost a bunch of settings, but other important information was all there.

Hope this might help someone.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgmorland:
I dont know if this will help ...

I was originally able to connect my phone to Kies and then something happened that stopped it connecting. When I plugged in the USB cable, Windows didnt make the sound it usually does when a USB device is found.

I finally realised that this had only started happening after I had installed an SD card in the phone. The SD card was formatted with my old Windows Mobile phone. If I unmounted the external SD card using the settings menu then reconnect phone to PC it is now recognised as a USB device and Kies connects. Something about the format of this SD card was stopping the USB connection working.

I reformatted the external SD card in the phone and now it connects ok with the SD card installed still.

Maybe your problem is similar?

I upgraded my htc desire from opendesire 4.0.33 to opendesire 4.0.36 and usually in the past when I transferred phones or upgraded roms, all my downloaded and installed applications, widgets and live wallpapers would be restored once I signed in to my account.

why is it not restoring this time? did I do something wrong?

I have both "backup my data" and "automatic restore" cekced in settings.

An alternate is Titanium Backup :) Guess you already knew that, but mentioning it just in case you don't knew it... It's not automatic, but some kind of semi-automatic. You will have to push some buttons to restore :)

It backs up from one device to the other?

What does it back up exactly?

also does it backup automatically at certain times? I don't always remember to back things up every time I install a new program.

I'm just surprised that it stopped automatically restoring things. Did I do anything wrong to get rid of it?

[Droid X General] mptrh336:
I've been trying to help a friend flash ROM's to his X. We've installed the paid Bootstrap and Rom Manager. We then utilized the bootstrap utility, and flashed clockworkmod recovery. We then go to the Download rom section of Rom Manager and choose FlyX, it downloads, we then check backup current rom, and wipe data, continue. The phone attempts to boot into clockworkmod but wont. It does the update package part, fails, and then reboots normally. I should also note that when I attempt to boot into clockworkmod recovery via bootstrap it is successful. Could I find the downloaded Rom via the menu in clockworkmod and install it that way? Is there a step in installing Clockworkmod that I'm missing? I've been checking the forums but all I can find for solutions is people saying to install bootstrap again. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both programs twice and nothing has changed. Thanks so much in advance for the help.
[Droid X General] razorloves:
open rom manager and click on flash clockworkmod recovery.

everything you download with rom manager goes into the /clockworkmod/download folder on your mem card.
[Droid X General] midnight assassin:
Tried that.didn't work.
[Droid X General] roooler:
You need to open up Bootstrap and select the top option... then you can proceed to Rom Manager.......Rom Manager cannot flash CW onto the DroidX that why we need Koush's Droidx Bootstrapper. Give that a try also Note i hope that you have booted into CW and made a Nandroid backup of your friends current phone state.. If that still doesnt work for you.. download the ROM off a forum and do it manually.
[Droid X General] bobenhaus:
YOu need to download Koush bootstrap http://koush.tandtgaming.com//motorola/droidx/DroidXBootstrap.apk

So after I gain root, I open Bootstrap? I then hit the "Bootstrap Recovery" button? Then I open Rom Manager and click "flash the latest ClockworkMod Recovery", which I beleive is 2.5.0.7? Do I hit the "Reboot Recovery" button in Bootstrap after I flash the latest CW recovery?

Hey guys. I had rooted my Nexus One without unlocking the bootloader using the 1-click root application. I have managed to successfully use Cyanogen roms in the past. I am currently running eViL's NXSense v1.26.

I want to now revert back to the stock Froyo Rom, install all the latest updates which have been done after Froyo 2.2 & be ready eventually for Gingerbread :D. My question is how I can safely revert back to the stock Froyo rom & still be rooted?

I have Rom Manager installed and I am currently using clockwork recovery. I believe that there is an option in Rom manager to flash the stock Froyo rom. Is this the best option to select? Also I have an ext 3 partition of 512 MB. Do I have to format my card to delete the partition ?

Thanks for the link mate. I would still like to know since my Nexus is rooted, if I revert back to the stock rom will I lose the root? Also if I revert back to stock Froyo 2.2, will I get the OTA updates which have been released after that? Finally what about the ext 3 partition? Do I keep it or do I have to delete the partition and how I delete it if it is not required?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2jamit:
Hey guys. Can anyone please look into my questions? I want to switch back to the stock rom while still maintaining my root.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
you will lose root on a completely stock (untouched) ROM, no matter the version. But you can always root back through various methods if needed. Rooting does not prevent you from getting OTA updates.

If you go to Froyo 2.2, you MIGHT have to manually update to 2.2.1 (FRG83) depending on if Google made the update available again (it was taken off for some reason...) but you WILL get future updates (such as the new FRG83D)

As for the ext partition, I do not think it's useful, unless you are planning to use apps2ext which requires root I believe. Don't take my word for granted, I don't know much about this.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2jamit:
Thank you replying mate. As mentioned earlier, rom manager does have an option of going back to the stock Froyo rom. I have a2sd enabled. So how do I go back to the stock Froyo rom. Do I have to format my sdcard to delete the ext 3 partition?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2jamit:
Hey guys. I managed to download & install Nexus One FRF91 stock rooted image using rom manager. I have also managed to restore my applications using Titanium backup. I can see all my root applications are working fine & I can also see the superuser app.

Now when I go to Settings--> About phone--> System updates, it gives me a message that my system is currently up to date. Is this because I am rooted? As mentioned earlier I rooted using the 1-click root & so my bootloader is still locked. How do I move on from FRF91 to the remaining Froyo updates while still maintaining my root?

Also when I connect my phone to my PC & use Minitool Partition Wizard, it shows me my ext 3 partition & the swap space. Since I am not using a2sd, how do I regain this space while still maintaining other files? Can I just delete these 2 things using Minitool Partition Wizard?
