[Q] ota ICS update problem? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, I'm having a problem trying to update to ICS!
Here's my phones details before I explain:
1: Samsung Google Nexus S GT-I9020/GSM
2:Running NSCollab 1.0.60
3: Baseband=I9020XXKB1
4: Franco Kernel 2.6.35
First off I'm not sure if my phone can house the ICS update because I'm not 100% sure of my model (checked box & contents & under battery!) ???
I understood that you needed to be on android stock GB 2.36 before you could update, so this is what I did! I lost my signal/network & couldn't connect or even see the vodafone network I'm on so I reverted back to my NSCollab 1.0.60 nandroid backup, only to find the same no signal/network problem! I tried again (back to stock 2.36, still no signal!) powered off, used fastboot to flash cwm 5.0.20 recovery image, then tried to update ota ICS 4.03 after renaming to update.zip! (previousle ported to sd/card!) It worked but got stuck on ICS boot animation for nearly 20 min's before I had to pull battery! I retried a few times, but kept getting 07 errors! So then, back to bloody NSCollab 1.0.60 nandroid backup "AGAIN" , Only to spend half the day trawling google, here & numerous sites to restore my signal/network again, but this time having to get back my original imei, as after repairing it produced a 00............0000 generic one?? Got it up & running now with my baseband showing (as above!), original/true imei & signal/network!
So the questions are these: 1: Can the ota ICS update available now go on my model nexus s???? (Still confused as to my model!?) 2:Why ICS boot animation froze & 07 errors??? 3:Why when I revert to stock do I lose my signal/network? because with no network you can't even check updates for phone in settings coz no signal!!
If anyone can help a friendly noob with these questions I'll be forever in their debt, lol! If the ICS update that's availabe as of now isn't compatable with my nexus s model (???) then I won't even try again till it is, & if it is compatable, then this thread is coming from a very disgruntled ICS hungry chap, lol!
ps: no questions about how I got my signal/network & original imei back please! I'll post another thread about this when I have time! CHEERS PEOPLE!

Anyone?

Thnx for reply surdu_petru, I won't try this just yet as I'm scared of losing my signal/network again, then not being able to recieve OTA updates of any kind! Will wait for hopefully more replies & answers first! Insidentally could you share with me how you can work out stock rom 2.3.4 is specific to my nexus s model? Obviously if it is correct version then it should also already have correct radio version so I don't have to flash another!?
Thanks in advance.

Did you do a nandroid backup of your Stock ROM before installing CM7?
after installing cyanogenmod roms we can only upgrade our phone to cm roms or we can upgrade to any official firmwares?

[Q] Galaxy Ace GT-S5830D Koodo "network" problem cyanogen 7.1 kang

Hello... I am a new ( noob ) in THE XDA forum. So if I do a things that I'm not supposed to do, told it to me. ( I speak french so I will do my best I can )
Now the real things:
- I flash my GT-S5830"D" to cyanogen 7,1 ; 9, official, unofficial... What ever, with no * succes. (I dont now if the "D" is important)
The wifi always crash ( need to close and re-open it ), my ACE wont receive SMS or share it "sometimes" and the DEL brightness always change ( the screen become black and after it come like normal )
- I'm with Koodo ( TELUS ). I think that Koodo are the problem, because they make our Android OS and bla bla.
- If you cant help me for CyanogenMod, try to restore of my first OS.
-->I backup it with CWM 5, but it wont install it correctly. ( boot logo stay on the "Galaxy ACE bla bla..." )
Very big thanks.
P.S. if you help me and it work, I will work to help programing Galaxy ACE! I promise.
try restoring it via CWM recovery.. if no success try flashing via odin.. hope it helped

Thanks for the anwser... I flash my Galaxy with Odin, but the same problem start! I take an official firmware of a galaxy Ace 2.3.4, so I don't understand why!?
CWM... The first time I install CWM I do a backup. But when I was trying to flash cyanogenmod I do a bad thing and I restore with no problem... Now the phone ( when I try to restore ) do a boot loop ( I think ) on the Galaxy Ace... But I can restore cyanogenmod!
So help me please
P.S. I thanks you for who responding.
Have you tried flashing using ODIN using the full package method?

Yes I've try full or not with Odin and the firmwares install with no problem. It is when I open the phone problem start. I can rarely share a SMS or receive.
So I'm relly thinking that a need a special Koodo firmware or a developper who can create me a special firmware.
Okay,
First thing, CM7 will work with your Ace.
Second thing, you cannot use CWM to restore a backup of a stock ROM.
Third thing, check your APN settings. You are going to need to manually create a Sp.koodo.com APN with all the settings detailed inside.
Did you have any problems flashing?

Hi,

( a guy of Koodo told to me that the installing, unstalling, installing,... broke the motherboard. Does it's real? )

Yes you cannot flash your stock ROM with CWM, flash it with odin instead.
About installing-uninstalling thing nope it will not break your motherboard and it has nothing to do with it
Just flash a different ROM via CWM 4 or 5. My favorite is the Myth, it's based on stock with a couple of nice performance mods. It works great on the Ace.
PS. Don't listen to Koodo, they don't know what they are talking about...

XD Koodo... So I flash The ROM you told and it seem to work... But today I reflash it because again it was laging. But I think it is a Koodo service problem. Thanks... If you have other firmware better than TheMyth, I will try it.

You may try flasing tj_droid Stocklite v6.. based on the latest firmware DDKQ8, Pure stock bareboned + Scripts - will definitely makes your phone smooth..
Try a new one
Well if u do wanna switch to cyananogen then why are u trying CM7.1??
Go for 7.2 and best try Miracle v4ROM on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583871
Just follow the simple instructions
Remember to adhere strictly to the instructions otherwise u can get into problem
After installing u will not see your messages..so in that thread some files like <All System Apps> are given..unzip them and put on ur SD..
then using any Root explorer paste those files (like mms.apk for messaging service) in /system/apps
Thats all...u will see a great ROM...extremely fast with ICS layouts..
Don't forget to hit THANKS if i helped..
resolved
Ok my problem seem to be resolved... On the internet I finally found a Koodo 2.3.4 galaxy ace firmware to flash with ODIN. So I flash it, but I reinstall CM 7.2.0 FAT KANG and it seem to work now!! But Cyanogen doesn't detect Koodo carrier, it just detect Rogers, Telus (Telus=Koodo) and an other like 3016...

To answer your question or anyone else's, you'll have to change the CSC to Telus/Koodo. But first make sure you're on a full-package DTLKI4 firmware
First, write down your IMEI that you find in About Phone > Status
Then go into your phone dialer and punch in *#272*your imei#
You'll have a list of CSC codes to choose from, and hopefully TLS/KDO will be on there.
Changing your csc WILL do a complete factory reset on your phone, so be prepared to do that.
Great thanks

[Q] Damaged S3? S4 Revolution v11 ROM

Hi,
I have been trying some new ROMs on my I9300. During the process I installed the S4 Revolution ROM V11 Beta 2. The ROM works but is quite buggy and slow so I decided to flash it back to Omnirom. However since then I get no network connection for internet or calls. I get the same with the stock firmware also. If I reflash the S4 Revolution ROM I only get network access if i select to install the "XXEMG4 Modem" on setup.
I have tried wiping cache, formatting partition and reinstalling other ROMs but still no luck getting the network back - Only on S4 Rev ROM.
Is anyone able to offer some insight in to this?
Thanks.
Gordon.

In my opinion, I would drop S4 Revolution ROM and make the move to Sac's Custom ROM. It is the most stable ROM that I have flashed. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512983

make a nandroid from recovery just in case
the flash the newest version of the rom without wipe
I always wiped cache +dalvik after having flashed the new zip file. You shouldnt lose your settings, you might need to do a full wipe at some point if you're starting to experience problems though. Didn't have to do that myself, yet, but I (and you will at that point as well) might have to look into getting something like titanium backup then.

LG backup is included, as is stock launcher but launcher won't open due I believe to non-standard DPI

Any ideas why this happened? Keeping in mind i did everything as mentioned.
