[Galaxy S I9000 General] Holger01:
Hi all,

the USB-Port of my I9000 does not work anymore (needs repair).

Now I am unable to flash back to stock JPY with Odin.

How can I flash stock ROM within ClockworkMod Recovery (install zip from sdcard)?

Where to download a package?

My current ROM is Darkys v6.0 JPX.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gbohm:
Prerhaps u could let somebody have install an official one on his phone and have him/her safe it with rommanager (dunno if it will work) or you could try to build a custom rom (doc has a good how to) with all official components

Third suggestion would be perhaps wireless kies could flas it but no ide how that would work

perhaps somebody knows an easy way i am sure somebody has a good easy suggestion

Hi.

It all happend when i wanted to replace the libwebcore.so file in the /system/lib.

So i did it. but its properly the wrong libwebore.

so i restarted the phone, but now, its stuck at the tattoo screen.

I can connect it to the computer. adb can see it. but i cant su neither mount which requires su.

It's the custom rom. i have no recovery image installed.

i CAN access fastboot AND recovery mode

I tried flashing a rom via HBoot by renaming the rom to CLICIMG.zip. but it doesnt work. phone says no image or wrong format.

Any suggestions?
[Click General] XabdullahX:
Well, this really sucks

Now i cant even access adb. I pressed home+back key to reset the phone.

now its just stuck on the tattoo screen like just before but adb devices dont see anything.

Pleassee someone? i really need help on this one!

Hboot doesnt seem to help much. it cant detect anything. i had 3 files on the sdcard (all is amon_ra), just named differently: CLICDIAG.zip, CLICIMG.zip and CLICIMG.nbh

but it doesnt do anything :'(
[Click General] timlambo:
Do you have a backup?

Have you tried to install recovery img via adb? If you can do this you can just do a backup of your current rom, try somehow to get your sd-card seen by the computer and copy the files of your old backup files to your new backup, asked to replace select yes.( I used a different phone to copy my backup files to the sd card when I couldn't get past startup screen.)

Good luck.
[Click General] dancer_69:
Where you found these files?

To flash the rom from hboot you need the rom.zip file of your stock rom(renamed as CLICIMG.zip)
[Click General] edusevilla:
I have the same problem! stuck on "Tattoo" screen and boot again and again.

I have the goldcard with CLICIMG.zip and it loads on HBOOT and install all (boot,radio,recovery,etc.. ) but when it ends, returns to the same....

HELP PLEASEEE!!!
[Click General] tolgainci:
Do you have Amon_Ra or Clockworkmod recovery installed? If so you can try wiping the Dalvik cache and try rebooting. Most boot loops I had were resolved this way. Wiping data and cache totally might also help.

If you can access adb and device is rooted, you should be able to use "adb shell" command and have a rooted terminal with the "#" sign after running su. In that case you can also manually wipe Dalvik cache by deleting everything under /data/dalvik-cache/

Good luck!
[Click General] edusevilla:
tihe problem is that i can´t access to the phone by adb

i put "adb shell" and it says: "error: device not found"

the phone screen shows a phone and triangle with exclamation
[Nexus S General] thepoetvd776:
I just read that the LG Optimus 2x with dual core is coming out in March, and apparently for Tmobile. It will most likely be 4G also.

This makes my new Nexus S seem outdated already. Man I really like the phone but the fact that it doesnt support 4G was already a big hit for me, but I still got it. I didnt realize how much it really affected me until the other day I was talking with a friend who has an Evo and hes "let's see if this face time app works". I said sure, and connected to the my wifi signal, so we're trying to connect and he's like "man, connect to the 4g signal maybe its faster".

At that moment I couldn't open my mouth to say that my new phone which i dropped over $500 for, couldn't connect to 4g. I just played it off and changed topics.

Anyways that was my small rant, I'm sure others feel the same.

LG OPTIMUS currently has:

TEGRA 2

HDMI Mirroring

4 INCH WVGA Display

8gb Internal

MicroSD Slot

8MP camera

front facing camera

DLNA out of the box

With CES right around the corner, I'm glad I have 30 days to return the Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] joser24:
.

I feel the same way as you. Im not going to say its a bad phone but we all had such high expectations. Who knows maybe LG might make the next NEXUS. I switched from my N1 because that was already starting go get me mad. I use to hate my brothers Vibrant because the screen was so amazing. So my Pros overpower the Cons so ill stick to it. Maybe when the new LG comes out ill jump on it, but i HATE branded phones. loaded with a bunch of crap i don't need.
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Already threads open about this. Android is also not optimized yet for dual core, so have fun with utilizing only one core.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
i agree with most but now the negatives.

- no community support " really, who buys an LG phone here? " :confused:

- its 2.2, they promised 2.3 which will probably be ****ty just like 2.2 on Galaxy S

- for sure no Android 3.0

- its an LG phone. how many times i have to say it ?

in paper, the Lg 2X is amazing. will i buy one ? probably i will. i think think the nexus S is a disspointment in terms of power

its not a bad phone. its just a galaxy S with better software " no rfs bull**** " and support by google. so android 3.0 is coming

plus. its a 3 months away. you could always buy the nexus S and sell it later if that phone is better. BUT if you already have nexus 1 or newer, then yeah dont spend money on nexus S

please dont post bull****. thank you and good bye
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
I suspect the shipped units will have kernels that're set up just fine.

Also just because LG doesn't have a big dev following yet, doesn't mean it wont when this comes out. This could be the thing that starts it off for them.
[Nexus S General] IDtheTarget:
I seriously thought about waiting for the LG phone, primarily because of the Tegra2 and the 8MP camera. There was one major reason I didn't wait:

Straight Google Experience.

I am sick and tired of waiting for months on end for manufacturers and carriers to update the OS. And I'm tired of wondering if a manufacturer will update an OS for a phone at all.

Sure, the developers here on XDA are amazing, but they still need hardware drivers from the manufacturers to work their magic.

I just wanted to know that I was going to have a phone that Google supported.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Dudes-

It's not like you didn't know the specs before buying the thing. LOL.

Seriously, some of the design decisions on the phone are mind-boggling (no AT&T support like the Vibrant has, no "4G" support, no external sdcard, etc), but we knew these decisions before purchasing.

Personally, I love Galaxy S phones, and this is the best looking, best fitting in my hand of the lot, but I'd been using an i9000 on AT&T and in the areas of Los AngelesI frequent, the AT&T service is better overall than T-Mo. If the phone were 4G, I'd put up with the poorer coverage of T-Mo, but as is, the T-Mo service has me 50/50 on keeping the phone or not.

I have to disagree with the above comment that if you have a Nexus One this upgrade doesn't make sense. The much superior 4" SAMOLED vs. the 3.7" AMOLED screen is reason enough to dump the N1 for the NS, especially if you spend any time in the sunlight. The vastly superior multi-touch touch screen of the NS is also reason enough to switch, IMHO.

To each his own, though.
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
I wouldn't worry about it cause we all know that t-mobile doesn't have 4g, It's just hspa+. And even though the nexus s doesn't support it, you still can see slightly increased speeds simply because the network backhaul is increased so that the full 7.2Mbps is achieved on the nexus s. Nexus s owners are already reporting actual download speeds near 6Mbps. Don't you think that is fast enough for video calls fast enough to future proof this phone for at least the next year?
[Nexus S General] rashad1:
4G technology doesn't exist yet period. Not on T-mobile, not on Sprint, not on Verzion.

Is "4G" (HSPA+) even available in your area?

Better specs don't necessarily equate to a better phone, you might feel like it's outdated only a few months later. I say stick with your Nexus S for at least a year and see what's out then
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
HSPA+, 4G, whatever you want to call it...4G is just a marketing term and geeks can debate what it is and isn't, but that doesn't change the fact that there are two different networks in T-Mo's arsenal now (HSPA and HSPA+) and that one of them is capable of significantly higher speeds than the other. The 4G/not-4G talk is pointless.

I haven't done a lot of testing with the NS and data speeds yet; haven't had a chance with work so busy right now. I think I got around 3000Kb/s the other day, which is respectable.

I'm in Los Angeles, and we have the HSPA+ upgrade in my local area.

Near the Van Nuys airport, where I spend most of my away-from-wifi time, my Nexus One was getting a consistent 4000Kb/s, but I've never seen more than 4400 or so. Pretty impressive, but nowhere near the 6-7.2Mb/s. Also not nearly so impressive when I consider that my iPhone 4 and Galaxy S i9000 both get consistent 3000Kb/s speeds on AT&T.

3000-4000Kb/s really is fast enough for most uses, but when the network's newest phones are offering speeds 50-100% faster and then release a "flagship device" as people are calling the NS, it's a bit disappointing to not be part of the fastest crowd.

As I mentioned above, the lack of HSPA+ isn't a deal breaker for me, but the T-Mo service in general makes this a much less attractive phone for me as my primary device. My N1 had been relegated to wifi-hotspot/tethering-the-laptop duties since last July.
[Nexus S General] Smilez_c:
I second that. And pple keep talking about this tegra 2 crap what really are you gonna use dual core for? I mean lets be senseful here? With Gingerbread this phone is already fast and and pretty much polished. Tegra 2 is probably gonna be a battery hog. And this phone is gonna be full of LG/TMO bloatware, and no support at all its gonna be atuck at 2.3 for ever. That's 'IF' it even releases on 2.3. Anf Honestly who wants an LG phone c'mon now. Return your phone and you shall regret. Trust me the Nexus S is sold out pretty much everywhere when u return it and try to change ur mind to get it again its gonna be gone.. And I know thats gonna happen
[Nexus S General] thepoetvd776:
I live 10 mins away from NYC so 4G is in my area. I understand completely what everyone else here is saying but I'm just thinking that with all these potential dual core devices coming out, that makes the Nexus S not future proof regardless of Google's support or not. This will also make the resale value drop gradually compared to the original Nexus which was a BEAST of a phone when it came out, and still hangs with the best now.
[Nexus S General] Smilez_c:
So let me ask you something. Are dual core phones gonna drop the iPhone 4 value as well? I mean its gonna be single core for a while chances are the next one will STILL be single core.
[Nexus S General] sstang2006:
Oooo the great "4G" lol

Haven't people watch the dogfight of Nexus S vs MyTouch 4G where they compare speed test side by side in a HSPA+ coverage area? And guess what, the greatest "4G" came slower than the out of date "slower" 3G, not only once but all three consecutive tests.

10:45 http://www.phonedog.com/videos/google-nexus-s-vs-mytouch-4g-dogfight-pt-2/

So whats the big deal everyone is dying for 4G? This reminds me of the Iphone4 vs HTC Evo video lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL7yD-0pqZg
[Nexus S General] barmanham:
I hardly even get 2 megabits where I live.If you're area had HSPA+ its capped at what 6.5 isnt that enough for video chat?Also he had sprint maybe better coverage where you were and had nothing to do with 4g
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
One guy's results, in one location, really don't make the NS the clear winner. On top of that, they're hardly conclusive...less than 100Kb/s difference on 2/3, only 2Kb/s on one of them. LOL

All cellular/wireless experiences are just like real estate...location, location, location is all that matters. The guy even says he's not getting full HSPA+ service for some reason in his location for the last few days.

Take both phones to a confirmed working HSPA+ location and test again, multiple times at different times of the day and against different servers if you really want to prove/disprove the theory here.
[Nexus S General] csmall:
The problem is this; there will be a newer and more powerful handset released every X number of months.

The Nexus S is a great phone that has pros and cons just like all the other leading Android phones.

If you fall into upgrading/swapping for every newer piece of hardware that drops you will be spending a great deal of cash and will never truly be content.

It's always give and take. I will give up "4G" and a dual core CPU for quicker updates and a pure Android experience. The hardware is still top notch.
[Nexus S General] Smilez_c:
EXACTLY.....& T-MOBILE 3G coverage is not even everywhere yet so what makes them think 4G will be everywhere in the next few months??
[Nexus S General] DKYang:
Might as well never get a phone then, since new phones come out every month or two, you'll end up waiting forever.
[Nexus S General] sstang2006:
- I can tell you for sure 80% of cities with HSPA+ you will get the same speed on a non HSPA+ device. If the OP is not even getting a good 3G how can he get a good HSPA+.

- That will be 2 guys test. The second one is me. I had the G2 ("4G") and I tested its speed in Miami, FL (definitely HSPA+ area) and there was no difference at ALL, different times, different locations.

- I'm sure there are places where HSPA+ is a lot faster but thats the minority. If HSPA+ in my were was much faster, sure I will mind, but it is not.
[Nexus S General] tuan209:
4G or HSPA+ is all marketing BS. My household includes the N1, MT4G, G2, and now the NS and they all get the same speed. Ive tested all four phones throughout the Houston and Dallas area and I have never ever gone over 5mb for download speed.
[Nexus S General] Androidfreakz:
Actually the ITU have gave its blessing to LTE, WIMAX, and HSPA+ being considered 4G just a few days ago.
[Nexus S General] kapur_deepak:
i returned the Nexus S

ley me put it this way I'm never gonna buy Samsung phone again. Bought their 3 best phone in last 3 phone n didnt like em at all

1. Samsung Omnia when it came out from Europe $ 600

2. Samsung i8910 (first with Amloed Display) again form europe for $700

3. Nexus S $571

they r in such a ruch to inundate the market with phone that their is no quality control or post sales service.

I've used samrtphone for last 12 year from Palm 180 to everything, and i would say Samsung is the worst.

Back to my Nexus 1 n wating eagrly for upgrade
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
This is what I've been saying ever since the Nexus S specs were out, and I've been putting up links here in the Nexus S forum about all rumored/official dual-core device news (currently, anything dual-core related is inevitably linked with Nexus S and its lack of one, so I felt it was appropriate to share the news here; especially for those on the fence). It's discussed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=874800

Anyway, my argument to wait on the Nexus S has always been that it's not as future-proof as it should be. What the Nexus S seems to represent is the best of last era's smartphones - that is, the best that a single-core, 3G phone can be (however, this claim itself is debatable, particularly by iPhone 4 owners, Epic 4G owners, mytouch 4G owners, and even certain Galaxy S owners, etc.). We're at a brink in mobile technology. It's true that technology always changes and moves forward at breakneck speeds, but we're at a point where the standard itself is changing. And more specifically, moving toward dual-cores and "4G" capabilities. As I've said in other threads, the lack of these features will be felt by Nexus S owners in 2011 in some way or form as those become the standard.

The early arguments about not "needing" "4G" or not needing 720p recording were, in my opinion, farce, and I always called them out as such. There are many features in our phones we don't "need." Yet because we don't "need" "4G" doesn't abate the disappointment. All those, currently, claiming that people knew the specs of the Nexus S are speaking with some validity, but it doesn't mean people can't be regretful of their purchase. I believe Google/Sammy rushed the Nexus S (I talk about it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=863837) and as such, didn't future-proof it as well as they could have. The slew of issues (which the list grows by the day) across users in this forum supports my belief that it was rushed into production. I'm not sure they should get away with a rushed product at the price of $580 dollars. Of course, everyone has different points of view on what's valuable and worthwhile or not, and I'm happy to hear people enjoying their Nexus S. However, the calls for people to stop complaining or stop voicing their disappointments about the phone is unwarranted. No one is telling others to stop voicing their opinions about what they love about their phone.

The biggest draw of the Nexus S is clearly the clean and direct Google updates. If that - and as 2011 rolls around, only that - is worth the price of admission, then people will be happy with their purchases. If people value other things a little more, they shouldn't settle.
[Nexus S General] ap3604:
The 17th of January is going to be the sweetest day ever :D

The 30 day return window will be up and all the whiners will have returned their Nexus S and be gone ;)

Lets pray boys... Let us pray :)
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
Yes, because every NS in the world was sold only on the US release date.
[Nexus S General] jh811:
Yes, finally someone who "gets it". Doesnt matter if a phone is 7.2 or 14.4 capable. All the towers I've ever connected to here in LA/OC which is supposedly a "4G" market have given me less than 7.2 speeds. I think the max i got was 5mbs once
[Nexus S General] mcosmi:
hey clown...this is a developer phone...it blows the doors off an evo(which i own and can speak with authority to)...and also, your 'outdated' nexus s on it's tmobile 3g gets better download speeds than your buddy on his '4g' wimax ****. So stop whining...and learn what '4g' means..cuz its a marketing scam, which works on uninformed consumers...look at you...it worked like a charm. you're unhappy with your purchase because it doesnt say 4g in your notifications bar, but you don't even realize you're getting better thruput than your buddies evo. Dumb...you know what, you don't even deserve the flagship phone. Give it to a real developer who might be able to appreciate it.

This phone was meant to be the best, PURE android device so far...and it does that. It was meant to get the developers thru the next 6 or so months of developing while the LTE dust settles, and dual core nonsense gets hashed out. Why would they put out a flagship developer unit that had a dual core chip, when no other phones have dual core yet, and everything you develop and test would only run on your device? It's the best android unit out right now..and will be for a few months...at which point, no matter which phone u buy...there will be something better available.

[Nexus S General] brianbrain:
Yes yes, we get it we get it. TRUST me, EVERYONE has seen your posts :rolleyes:

1) 4G - T-Mobile's "4G" has been demonstrated to be just as fast on HSDPA devices time and time again. HSDPA devices gained the speed benefits from Tmo's upgrade simply due to the backhaul upgrades. As far as Sprint or Verizon's 4G - I came from an Epic and can tell you - this hybrid approach sucks. I hated having to turn my 4g on or off, hated the battery life draw, and hated the hand-off issues between 3g and 4g. Annoying at this time, pure and simple.

2) You really want to get the first dual core device on Android? ..And it's made by LG? The phone's shipping with 2.2, so you're going to have to wait for 2.3...for who knows how long...and then wait again for 3.0..Sounds awesome. NS will be the first phone to have 3.0, having said nothing of the fact that the OS will be optimized for the hardware. Don't you think it's likely that Google is simply proposing Tegra 2 as the reference platform for Homeycomb tablets (which is all they've said, by the way), but Hummingbird is and will be the reference for Homeycomb phones?

3) The Nexus One wasn't the first phone to utilize the Snapdragon SoC (the LG eXpo was), just like how the Nexus S is not the first phone to utilize Hummingbird (as so many of you love to point out). Both of these phones debuted utilizing the highest end SoC's of their time - after they had already been vetted. Heck, don't you all remember how the Nexus One debuted without even any multi-touch capability? The Nexus One has grown into something far greater than it was upon release. The Nexus S, imo, has been built in the spirit of the Nexus line - a top of the line phone, built for future upgrades and enhancements. It will stand the test of time, just as the Nexus One has.

Everyone's free to draw their own conclusions, but I think I'll personally be going dual core a year from now - when the next generation Nexus phone is released.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
No, we all get it...if the towers and backhaul don't (currently) offer any faster speed, the device's max capability is pointless, but if/when the towers/backhaul do, if your device is pegged out at the older speeds, you'll need to upgrade for the benefit.

I mentioned before, it's not a deal breaker for me, just a disappointment that the flagship phone isn't a flagship-speed device. I'll update phone in 6 months most likely anyways -- I have the means to do so and get bored easily. For those stuck on a two year cycle, the phone is less appealing because it's not got the faster radio POTENTIAL. Obviously YMMV.

nexus s

have had a nexus one for alittle under a year and traded it for an iphone 4 32gb straight up, not a fan of it at all. Im planning on selling the iphone 4 to possibly buy the nexus s. I ve been reading mixed reveiws about it, somewhat unsure as to what i want to do. Spend the $550 on it or just buy a used tmobile vibrant from $200-300 range. Seems as if the screen is solid in both phones, and development in both is solid as well.
[Nexus S General] sstang2006:
On todays technology there is no "future-proof" device. Name me one that has been future proof.

The Nexus One, the BEST of the BEST only lasted 6 months been the BEST.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
I understand technology advances rapidly, and devices can be future-proof only so much. I elaborated on what I meant by the Nexus S not being as future-proof as it could be further into my paragraph. If you missed it, basically, I feel the Nexus S represents the ending of an era of Android devices (namely, the single-core, 3G device era), and that we're essentially on a brink of mobile technology, where the new standard will become dual-core/"4G." This is not a knock, per se, against the Nexus S. Just that some people will feel it's worth waiting while this transition is happening.
