Hi, I have a problem with my nexus s.
Since yesterday my phone is stuck on "Only Emergency Calls"
I tried an hard reset, i tried to flash another rom (i used to run cm 7) but nothing works.
If i insert another sim card (different carrier) in the mobile it works!
If i insert my sim card in another mobile it works!
That's very strange!
I got this trouble twice, whit CM7 and CM7.1.
Did you used power widget control to switch between 2G/3G on CM7? I did, and twice, the network gone k.o. Yesterday that happened again, and after a little bit of swearing, I tried a cache/dalvik wipe and a permissions fix, and now it seem to be ok. Of course, I'll never use that damned widget again.
Yes i used it.
But unfortunately with cache/dalvik wipe but the device is still stuck!
What happen when you boot your phone? It ask you for pin code? Have you tried to manually scan for available carrier and eventually set 2g or 3g through settings?
Yes it asks me for the pin code.
I tried to switch 2g/3g and airplane mode on/off but nothing change.
If i tried to scan for the available carrier it shows me my carrier but i can not catch it.
In the notification bar appears the network indicator without the X (when you run the phone without sim) so it's like it knows that there is a network but it can't catch it!
PS: I tried a sim with my same carrier (vodafone) and it doesn't works.
Other carriers works!
Could be the efs folder?
The imei looks good, is the same on the mobile's box
Flash a stock rom and then see whether it works. If it works then do a clean install of CM7, I had an data issue, My data din't work.
I did a full wipe and then installed a stock ROM, It started working/
I wipe data cache, dalvik cache, everything i suppose.
I tried to install a stock rom via odin.
But it doesn't works.
Flash a stock ROM for your phone from here in recovery,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
Do a full wipe before flashing. Don't use ODIN.

why not odin?
Odin sometimes can terribly go wrong, That's why its advisable to flash stock rom from recovery,
Safest way.
Besides rom, have you tried reflashing radio?

I suppose.
When i flash the rom with odin I insert a file called mobile, is this the radio?
However how can i flash a new radio?
I never used Odin for Nexus S, so I don't know if it can cause issue with flashing. However, flashing recovery, rom, radio (even manually restore nandroid if you want..) is very simple with fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
If you haven't fastboot, you can follow this guide
flashed two different radios from modaco
XXKB3
XXKB1
Nothing change :|
It's strange..
You can try flashing last OTA update (2.3.6, GRK39F build, KA3 bootloader, KF1 radio) through CWM:
1) Install CMW using fastboot
2) Reboot into recovery
3) Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik Cache and format System (mounts and storage=>format /system)
4) Install OTA update from SD
PS. I think you have i9020T or i9023, so that OTA will be fine. Instead, if you have i9020A, dowlonad this package .
PPS. I don't think it would make any difference, but I suggest you to remove SIM before flashing.
No way man, it doesn't works

Hey,
I recently installed cyanogenmod 7 from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941346
Everything seems to be fine except for there is no market and I cannot link my google account to my phone under cyanogenmod 7. I tried through the settings/accounts area and also through the e-mail application but no luck. I tried reinstalling after wiping the cache, deleting the data but even that didn't work. I also tried to update using "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" and it says that it is successful but it still isn't fixed after that. I then tried to restore my old firmware then flash "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" and then reinstalled cyanogenmod 7 but I don't see any difference.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Bob
You install gaps the same way you flash the ROM. Put it on your SD Card, reboot into recovery and install the zip. When you reboot, you should be good to go.
I'm not 100% sure but I think you need to flash gapps straight after you flash CM7, while still in recovery.

Thanks for your prompt replies, I think I should also add that I installed it the same way I installed the mod.
hmm, thats weird that it didnt work then. What phone and recovery do you have? After you flash the ROM, you can try to fix permissions before you flash gapps. If you have clockwork recovery, that is located under advanced. If that doesn't work, I would do a full wipe, reflash the ROM and then flash gapps again. Also, you may have a bad download of gapps..that happens quite a bit. Just trying to throw the different scenarios out there.

Ok I will put everything I did. When I received the phone it was on android 2.0 imported from Italy. I then upgraded to 2.1 at which point this is all the information that I wrote down:
FCCID: IHDP56KC2 = GSM (Quad-Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900) & Dual-Band Euro 3G (900/2100))
A853
firmware: 2.1-update1
firmware configuration version: GAS_EMEA_USASHL00WNDIT_P031
baseband configuration version USASHLSMR2WNDITB1B806D.0R
kernel versioin 2.6.29-omap1 [email protected] #1
build number SHOLS_U2_02.38.0
bootloader 90.73
I then rooted the phone using universal androot. I then Installed RSD lite and used the SBF named "GOT_WINDITALY_2_2_1FULL.sbf" Then I installed open recovery and installed cyanogenmod/gapps. I tried redownloading the latest gapps from the cyanogen latest release wiki page (cannot link because my forum account is too new) but am stuck a bit. Could it be because I used a 2.2.1 sbf instead of the 2.0 that it came with?
So what would you recommend I do next? Should I download clockwork recovery now?
I managed to get it working! Here is how I did it. I re-downloaded cyanogen mod, I then re-downloaded gapps "gapps-gb-20110307-signed" and "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" tried both after clean wipe of dalvik cache data and cache partition and the "gapps-gb-20110307-signed" worked. I'm still not sure what the problem is but after trying again and again I can only assume the downloads must have been corrupt. Thanks for all of your help.
I'll try to remember the steps of what happened as best I can.
T989 All Stock Running Gingerbread (Not sure what Firmware)
1)Installed CWM via ODIN
2)nstalled SuperUser via CWM
3)Installed latest AOKP from here http://aokp.co/devices/hercules
Booted up just fine but two problems
1: No Service
2: Touch screen calibration was WAY OFF
BYAM DURP OOPS
Realized that I needed to get the latest Firmware before flashing the latest AOKP!
4)Full Wipe(I think?)
5)Install latest Firmware (T989UVMC6, right?) (Also did a factory reset/wipe)
Phone boots into Stock with latest firmware, however the touch screen is still calibrated way off!
Do steps 1-3 above again.
Touch screen calibration is still way off!
My only guess on the reason/fix for this is that maybe this is still some lingering problem of flashing the ROM on the outdated firmware, so I need to perform some sort of deeper wipe than just a Full Wipe via ClockWorkMod in order to get rid of any lingering problems. And then flash the latest firmware, and do steps 1-3 above.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Any other information needed?
Thanks in advance!

I've done wipes like this
Via CWM I do the Factory Reset/Full wipe, then cache and dalvik cache.
Is there a way to more deeply wipe?
I saw in some other places that you can mount some locations and also wipe those too, I assume maybe doing that will result in a "fuller" wipe and also wipe the firmware too?
Care to explain exactly how I should be wiping?
Also after doing the wipe, do I just flash latest firmware, install CWM/root, and then a ROM?
Thanks

then format everything except /sdcard
.
.
then flash latest Firmware.

So without a doubt I can wipe/format everything except SD Card and just flash a firmware via ODIN and be just fine?
Just double checking because it sounds scary to wipe/format so many things!

Formatted data, system, cache, and emmc.
Did Factory Wipe/Reset, Wiped cache and Dalvik cache.
Used ODIN to flash T989UVMC6, and still the touch screen is not calibrated properly.
However (I've seen other people report that problem but haven't seen a fix) when the phone is plugged in, it works just fine, but whenever it is unplugged the touch screen very unusable due to being calibrated so wrong. :/ After wiping and formatting everything and flashing a stock Firmware I'm all out of hope now!

My Oukitel's k4000 Touch Screen Calibration Messed Up After Flashing ROM on Wrong ROM
Hello,
Please help me. I tried to see if a ROM for 'Oukitel k4000 pro' could fit 'Oukitel k4000'.
Since it didn't work out, I flashed back to the original ROM of 'Oukitel k4000', but since then, my screen behaves wrongly to touches.
Could anyone faced and managed to beat this issue?
I saw several different posts on the net, but none of them actually helped me.
One more thing:
Please try to explain, as if you explaining a child, since my android experience is not that vast to follow all the shortcuts and proffecional terms.
Thank you,
Michael
Hi There,
So, I have a Samsung Galax S2 Telus SGH-T989D phone and I decided to root it using the 4.4 KitKat and it went well and everything was great.
However, afterwards to resolve some other issues I was having I decided to make the mistake of loading the gapps which was for another
package into my phone and that messed everything up!
So, I have been struggling with the phone and first it wouldn't let me install another ROM from recovery and kept on giving me error 7 and 6
But, I fixed that and now I can install any ROM from the recovery or Odin (download mode) without any errors.
However:
The phone vibrates , brings up the galaxy logo and then the Koodo logo appears and a bar fills up quickly under it but it never goes away!!!
Phone freezes there and that's that!! Even after taking out the battery I noticed the logo was still stuck on the screen where as normally
it goes blank!!
So, at this point I am not sure what else to do! This is annoying and I'm tired of experimenting. I went through some XDA foroums here and
tried the Super Vipe (taking out the battery has been tried, factory reset and wiping the cache all have been tried)
So, please please please help me out here. I used to have a MyTouch4G which I rooted with CyanogenMod back in the day and it's the most
stable thing ever and all I wanted to do was to perform the same thing on my Galaxy S2 and boom not this time!!!
Awaiting your response and thanks in advance

Thank you for your reply. However, as I've mentioned before, I've already tried those (from ODIN and through RECOVERY) with multiple different
ROMS and it's not doing anything which is why I am posting this here.

Did you perform a FULL wipe? Custom recovery -> format ALL partitions except EFS?
I have tried the Super Vipe off the SD card through the recovery mode and also from recovery I've tried the wipe cache,
factory reset and wipe cache partitions.
I am not sure about "format ALL partitions except EFS" nor am I aware of the procedure.
How would I perform that?
Have you installed a working custom recovery?

Yes I'm able to successfully install recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.7-hercules or CWM_Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2
from the recovery without any errors (same if rooted through Odin)
If there's a specific ROM you are thinking about please let me know and I will be more than glad to give it a shot.
You really should use a newer recovery version. But for now go to mounts and storage and format all partitions except EFS. Then try flashing stock firmware via Odin
Here you can get the latest recovery for your device --> TWRP for hercules

Do you have a working link for downloading the stock firmware? I have downloaded few and none of them even let me install them (status 0 error)
Any ideas?
Odin is already being used v3.0.7

I was able to finally bring it up!!
Basically I looked for a stock firmware for T-Mobile and after formatting the phones multiple times I tried this ROM
using ODIN and it got rid of the Koodo logo and replaced it with a T-Mobile logo and then it BOOM loaded to start screen finally!! :laugh:
I was about to hammer the phone. So, trust me I was very happy to see it work.
Thank you for your quick and helpful response :good:

I have tried several roms but fail, no signal. I tried to go back to stock and then flash again, no luck. Tried all the radios provided. Maybe a 6.0.1 6045O modem can fix it but I do not see it yet. Has anyone succeed? Please share your thoughts. I also tried to backup modem and reflash modem, using the zip provided by xda but still no luck. I guess stay in LP is not a bad idea though.
The way I revert back is by restoring from my previous twrp backup. I am not sure if that is the right way. I did flash the 6045I radio to try too. I am guessing maybe I messed up and it is stuck in someways. But once I back to stock I get the signal back. Maybe I should totally return to stock and root again flash recovery again......?! Omg that much work.
Here is how I did it

Here is how I did it on my 6045O (originally on Lollipop):
1. Unlocked bootloader
2.Rooted using the Dallas CZ guide (and his root utility. Alex's utility did not work for me)
3. Installed TWRP 3.0.0 from Alex's utility
4. In TWRP wiped down cache, dalvik, data and system
5. Format data (in the same wipe screen, but a separate button underneath)
6. Installed DCZ 2.2 rom and 6045I -6.0.1 modem from @wolfi
7. Do not install hybrid bootstack (did not work for me)
8. Reboot and enjoy . Everything works- MMS, rotate screen on dialer, lockscreen and LTE

Hello,
Since i bought the phone when it was first out i have been flashing roms, factory images, etc. So i know how to search, what to search, usually but right now i am stuck!
5 days ago, i was using a cm 14 rom, both sim slots were working, but phone was slow so i tried to install idcrisis 14a which worked, then yesterday a new one appeared, i clean flashed it, now i have no signal on either of the sim slots. Second slot recognizes that there is a sim, but gets no signal. when i do *#06# i can see both imei.
I have tried following:
flash kernel(s)
flash radio
flash modems
flash factory image
turn the device to gpe
flash cm14 zip
i still can't get service, do you have any idea what can be the cause and how to solve this?
please TRY this:
reboot to recovery
wipe data, dalvick, cache, system
install this zip drive.google.com/file/d/0B_TBSNgzL5M2clhTWG1SLV9yR1U/view
now try if you can get signal
now, if you want, you can upgrade to cm12.1/13/14.1
thank you, i will try this when i am back home.
thanks for your help but it didn't work either.
still haven't found an answer, any help would be great.
