I posted in another forum but I hoped maybe a dev could figure it out
I screwed up big time. I got my nexus s 4g and unlocked and rooted. all was going well and I went the custom rom route and used rom manager to do so. It was g found out after my radio didnt work. I tried to flash back to stock and it did. I found out it was gsm stock and I am a f#cking moron, so I'm stuck on stock, unrooted, no radio and no computer can it now, not the samsung prog, odin, or adb. the usb on pc will charge, but not push data, please can anyone help.
update: I have an epic, could I download the singed rstock rom, rename it update.zip, bluetooth it to the nexus and apply with stock recovery?
Have you tried reinstalling Samsung device drivers? Are you navigating to sdk/tools when you try adb?
This is not a development related topic. Things like this belong in q&a.

i have installed the drivers, and i have it set to cmd from anywhere. The computer cant see it at all
You flashed another phones radio, then propose to flash yet another phones rom to fix it... Dude.. Stop flashing and go read. A lot..

I have read, right now I am trying to get to stock on my nexus s 4g. I have no way to get files on it, since the usb will no longer transfer data. Thats the problem, I know I scewed up, I want to fix it is the thing
Post this in q&a. Dev is for dev. Unless you are writing code you shouldnt be making new threads here.
You will get help, just address it in the right forum.

Does wifi work? If yes try downloading a rom for your device from your phone directly and flash it within clockwork apk.

when i flashed the bad stock file it when back to stock recovery
the reason I asked in dev I was wondering it there A, another way to get the usb to work? it wont display even in device manager. or B isthere a way to falsh the correct radio as a signed update.zip?
It needs to be in q&a. Nothing about this thread relates to development. Quit posting, let this die, and ask in q&a. You will get help. You need to read. You need to follow the forum rules and general forum etiquette. If you cannot do that, please leave xda, and go to another forum.

i 100% agree with you that this thread should be closed. but come on now dude, no need to be harsh on the guy. his head is probably all over the place now that the phone is not working let's just understand him.
to OP:
here was a similar thread and a similar problem to yours. apparently the guy could enable USB through clockworkmod recovery and flash a rom for his device.
as i understand you have stock recovery. what you should do is try to install clockwork (through fastboot) and enable usb from there.
N.B after flashing clockwork recovery thrpugh fastboot, do not reboot your phone. just enter recovery directly through bootloader.

thanks for the help but mine cant be seen in fastboot, either. sorry for posting the wrong thread, I just thought a dev may have a flashable radio or a different usb trick

I was nice to begin with. But you also need to quit feeding him. He will keep posting in this thread and not make another one in q&a as long as you keep helping him. He keeps posting, you keep posting. I have no understanding for people not following the rules. They are there to keep xda clean and foster development. If people are going to ignore them, then they need to leave.

oh come on!! the guy needs help...definitely its a wrong thread in a wrong section..but just help him out...i would suggest him to try fastboot on another computer or so..install fresh drivers and a fresh sdk ..and then try out dude...and it would be much better if u really post your queries on to Q & A section....people will surely help
Jesus Christ give the dude a break. Hes just lookin for some help. Who cares if he made a thread in the wrong place, i dont see how that affects anyone especially the wannabe mods. OP hope u get ur phone workin again, id help u if i could
The only way i know of getting an update.zip/recovery/image over myself is fastboot, (ie: fastboot flash image, fasboot boot) ...without that working i am unsure how to fix your problem.
Regarding the flame wars over the wrong section posting, surely keepign this ontopic and free from gripes until a mod moves it is the best way? (over reacting wierdo's )
Hello everyone,
Can someone please point me to a stock 4.24.651.1 rom? I need to get my phone back to stock. I rooted with unrevoked. I can only find odex or deodex (sorry if wrong) versions. I would like the original unrroted version if it is out there. Please, I have searched and just cant find what I am looking for. Even just a point in the right direction would help as I just can figure this out!!
1st wrong section
2nd you didn't look to hard
3rd - here you go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
I tried that and followed that video already. I cant find the stock rom that is not rooted and some of the info I found there seemed out of date with a rom that was to old to use according to my phone. Im sorry if this is the wrong section. Im not sure shere to post. I thought this would be the appropriate section since I found a lot of ROM stuff here. I would be happy to post elsewhere if I knew the right place to post.
Maybe you were looking for this?
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Supersonic
Keep in mind, if you are rooted, you will lose it. If you install any of the 4.2 ones you wont be able to root it again until they come up with one.
YES!!! Thank you, I believe that is what I need. I really appreciate you pointing me to that site. For some of us who dont get on the threads alot it can be a bit frustrating trying to find the right info. I appreciate your help and not slamming me for asking my question.
Nobody will "slam" you for asking questions but thy will for posting in the wrong section. But it was nice for Chamala to answer your question and let you know it was the wrong section.

Also this thread in these very forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
I don't bother fighting the wrong forums, not searching, etc anymore. It's not worth the effort and XDA mods don't really care anymore, especially with the EVO becoming a budget phone.
I search the entire threads for Atrix 2 and i could not find something related to my inquiry so i decide to make a new thread (hope no problems will cause)
some of the old members they might know the problem i face very recently with my Atrix2 (yesterday because i was messing arround and trying to flash the Razr Rom into the Atrix ----Complete NooB), so i have a simple inquiry and i will appreciate it deeply if i could get a support on that.
i would like to know how many Signed Official Firmwares are Available for the Atrix2
as of now i manage to get the Chinese version(complete useless) and the US ATT version (best option but locked for ATT users only)
if in case something more is available can i request please to be uploaded it somewhere in here
i am not interested on customs Rom since the phone it self is very beautiful inside and outside.
Maybe this thread will be useful for other Atrix2 user too who might facing similar problems with me ( soft brick )
Thanks
George
This is posted in the wrong area, this belongs in the general section. This is also technically a duplicate post as MANY have asked this same question about official firmware, no matter which version.
MODs please move this to the general section.

Yes; anything that is development related, actual "hacks", ROMs, rooting, bootloader unlocks, etc. Go in the development section of the Atrix 2 forum, and and any questions, and requests and general talk of of things not really development related belong in the general section.
It might be a good idea to read the noob thread, and the rules.

Nope, but you might PM daywalker04, he is who got us our US version fxz. He will ask you to retrieve several files off your phone and install an upgrade program, that will give him a log file of what to look for.
Cant Find the guide.....im rooted yes phone says (SGH-T959V)
I would strongly second hechoen's recommendation in your "Help Help Help" thread from not even an hour ago that you take the time to read a bit more before you flash anything else. Believe it or not, you've probably already looked at links to what you need to do several times if you've spent much time reading here. One brick a day is more than most here want to deal with!

Yea its a hassel---so much easier on MY HTC--but GF wants ICS and i cant seem place guide--so i can read it lol
Please stop opening multiple threads. Please take the time to understand what phone you have, which ROMs are available, and how to properly flash a Samsung Galaxy S 4G SGH-T959V. If you then have additional problems, you probably should add to one of your own threads, and not in the Development section.

Thanks Jeff
And to save you more questions,
Once rooted and on GB - flash a CWM version 5 such as AntonX's basic with a twist 1.1.3, reboot to recovery and then flash CM9. That will get you to ICS. Don't forget to
sync all contacts to google and backup data first.
Also please thoroughly read CM9 installation instructions prior to flashing it.

Sorry that I am a noob, but I have been reading threads for a couple hours and haven't found a source that will answer my question.
What is the easiest way to get JB on my HOX?
I have ran into some that seem easy but only to find that I need a CID of HTC_xxx where mine is CWS_001. After a post directing me to this forum I have continued to try to find something to help me get JB and no luck. If there is a post that describes this please reply with it, or if anyone would be kind enough to post directions on how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.
Again, sorry that I am a noob at this, first Android phone, switched from iOS after Apple's disappointing "new phone", aka iPhone 4s with an extra row of icons.
Thanks!

First, you can use this tool to easily root your phone, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952426), then flash any JB ROM you like and just follow the instructions.

You have to change your CID from the AT&T default before you can unlock anyway. Once you do that, it doesn't matter anymore.

The CID will be changed to 1111111 before you can unlock your phone and then root, so don't worry about that. Happy flashing!

Ok...all these noobs getting the phone for free are now pissing me off completely. If you want to overcome being a noob, you have to put in time to read and search. DO NOT DO ANYTHING BEFORE FEELING COMFORTABLE WITH THE INFORMATION AT HAND
Being a noob means you should have at least watched the noob video when signing up. If you did not you broke the first rule of XDA and you need to watch it. If you did watch it(which I suspect you did not) you would know to search and read before posting. The community is here to answer questions we all have, but not questions that have been answered over and over again. Nor to spoon feed you.
oh ****...i know whats going to happen after he gets it rooted.......Don't you?? i see a brick coming up from attempting to flash the EVO OTA.
zac507, there is no official jb sense for our phone. someone should of stated that in the first reply shame on ALL of you. if you read his OP you would see he already tried flashing the endeavoru jb rom which is why he got the CID error.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044729
Here are GREAT guides for noobs basically from start to finish here. When I was first starting I made a Q&A thread ONLY after reading enough to where I was confused and not confident in going forward without consulting others.....The key here is that you need to read and understand what you are doing first before you ask for help otherwise what good is the help?
Anyways, good luck reading and hopefully everything goes well

Thank you to everyone (except Chef). I will continue to read and do research before rooting or flashing my phone.
Chef, I have read through the forums quite a lot, asked others who have flashed other Android devices and watched many video tutorials on the subject. But before doing anything I wanted to ask a specific question that I did not see in the forums to get a clear and concise answer. Since I PAID for my phone, I do not want to brick it, hence my thread. I suggest you pull your over-inflated tech ego out of your swollen rear and learn to read. I said I was a noob at this. Noobs have questions. People on forums answer questions to help them. You, on the other hand, just act like a prick and contribute nothing to the thread. Thanks for absolutely no helpful information, please stop posting on any forum if this is how you do it.
Again, thank you to everyone else who replied. You were very helpful!

Where do I begin to correct this post?
First, let's start with the fact that you asked "what is the easiest way to get JB on HOX?" Well assuming you read, and searched and etc. you wouldn't need to ask that question considering you would have had the answer already because you in fact read and you would know that you can flash countless JB roms if bootloader unlocked and rooted.
My over inflated tech ego must have got in the way though. Even though you asked a question which is so similar to all the other JB related questions asked on this forum.
Obviously you need to continue to read(skimming and reading are different) considering the fact that you try to run an international RUU on your phone...
I was looking out for your best interest, if you want to take it to a personal level and call me a prick so be it, but I sure hope I help ingrained the fact that you need to read more before tinkering.
I think my rear is swollen I should go lay down
Zac, if you have any trouble or need help I for one would be willing to help, sent you a pm so we don't offend anyone else in here.

Where the heck is "over there"? I assume some other device.
If somebody with 400+ posts on here doesn't get the purpose of custom ROMs, what the heck have you been doing here all this time?
