[Q] Boot issue after OTA

Hi
I got an issue after receiving an OTA update for my Nexus S. It was an official update asking my if I would like to install it. I choose yes and the device booted. It began to install and suddenly the triangle with exclamation mark popped up.
Since then, the phone only boots up randomly. Mostly if stays at a logo saying "google" in middle of the screen. No more Nexus bootup color game.
Is there any way to get this phone back to stock without being an expert?
It is a Nexus S 9020
I9020XXKD1
Kernel 2.6.35.7-ge382d80 android [email protected] #1
GRJ22
It was stock rom 2.3.4 and rooted at the time of the update
Any help is appreciated.
Regards
Martin
I am in the same ship Martin. Updated it to the 2.3.6 from 2.3.4 when I got the OTA. It was working fine, then the screen just stopped responding. It gets stuck at the google colour game now, and the screen turns off after some time. However, if I plug in the usb power charger, the screen lights up again, and the colour game proceeds a bit, then the screen turns off again. if i pull out the usb charger then, the screen lights up again. its been crazy since morning.
im sure that if we reset it, we can get it to work. but in my case i have been unable to do that. can someone tell us how to format/reset our nexus S?
Think I got it sorted.
Running 2.3.6. now, rooted. No loss of data for whatever reason.
What I did.
First of all, in one of those moments were the device was up, i copied a stock 9020T rom 2.3.6 on the sdcard.
In recovery mode, SDcard was never available. While reading through endless threads I found a recovery rom image called 5023_green.img
I had nothing to loose, so i flashed it using fastboot. A started in recovery and I got full access to my SDcard. I updated from full stock rom 2.3.6 I loaded to the SDcard earlier. Since then, no more issues. Surprisingly here I would have expected loss of root and wipe of all data. But this did not happen. All data is there in its place.
Cheers

HELP!!! Stuck on 4.1.2 update!

Hey guys! I just got a used xoom tablet, had 4.1.1 installed, the device was not rooted. I did a factory wipe and after a restart it was telling me to install the 4.1.2 update. So I click to install, it resets and is now stuck on the green android guy and the progress bar is stuck at about 25%. Ive done the volume up power reset, takes me to the same spot. The progress bar isn't moves to about 25% and stops but the symbol in the droids chest is spinning. When I try to get to recovery, im stuck at the 'Starting Fastboot Protocol support' message.
I wish I hadn't updated, this sucks! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!! Thanks!

Boot trouble

After updating to Jelly Jean I've decided to wipe the phone in order to start clean and that's when everything started.
After wiping the phone it just didn't turn on automatically and everytime I've tried to do it I ended up on an Android animation, the same we get when we update the system, and anything happens, the animation goes away and the screen gets black.
So I've searched and found a way to get into the boot options and selected "Normal Boot" and everything seemed to be fine, but then I went out of baterry and after a full charge the Android animation came back. I did all the boot thing over again and now everytime I have to restart the phone I have to boot manually.
Can you guys help me?
Had exactly the same pub when I upgraded from its to job ota... And it's not the first time I read about this here. The only stable fix for me was to download rsd lite + the full firmware and to flash it through fast boot mode. This definitely looks like a corrupted upgrade.
I'm gonna send it back to Moto. Thanks for helping.

Nexus 5 stuck on colored balls/dots..!!!

I got a small 10 mb update for my Marshmallow. I downloaded that and after it was done, while installing an error came. i switched off my phone thinking it would start properly. Then it got stuck on the colored balls/dots that come before the welcome screen. I tried switching on and off but no success.
Then I did a factory reset and after everything was done and i thought the phone would get switched on, but it again got stuck on those colored balls. Now the phone is not getting switched on..

Is it rooted or non rooted? Stock recovery? Probably you can flash the latest image files (except userdata) and check if it is working.
You can go through the guides on how to flash image files from the sticky posts.

[Completed] LG G4 h811 unable to factory reset or enter download mode.

Hey guys,
Sorry if the answer to this found somewhere else, tried searching but foud nothing for my situation.
My buddy, who is a super basic user and was not attempting to do anything with his phone, has a G4 that suddenly stopped working and went into a boot loop.
We tried factory resetting it and it got about half way through the apps before stopping, going back into a boot loop and was unable to get back to the same point in the factory reset.
I tried flashing the ROM using LGUP to H811-20o and it said that it went successfully on LGUP as well as the phone itself, but after it rebooted it went back into a boot loop.
Now the boot loop goes faster but is still looping and we cannot get back into download mode to try again or potentially try a different ROM. It goes to the first screen of download mode with the 5 blue dots but doesn't get past that, I've removed the battery waited for a while in between attempts and still nothing.
We can get to the factory reset screen and click yes, it will then go to the green android guy with his cog wheels exposed but then immediately goes back into a boot loop.
Any help is appreciated, even if its just a confirmation of being SOL.
