[Q] Problem on boot - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my i9023 nexus s.
When going on, every time freezes, then restarts and turns on, normally.
I don't now what happened.
I start by saying that i have root, the stock ics rom and kernel Matr1x 15.5, and I already have ( downloaded on my pc ) the stock gingerbread rom with no root.
Help me.
p.s. : my nexus s is fully functional

have you changed voltages up or down??
did you flash that rom with a clean install??
did you wipe dalvik cache before you flashed that kernel?
did you have this problem on any other kernel?

Yes, i wipe the dalvik cache, but i don't install other kernel, and i install the ics stock from gingerbread with the update.zip

hi mate, i had same problem with "cybergr v.5 ics rom", lots of reboots,
durning using camera app all screen covered in green "flickering" lines, lots of fcs, freezing boot ...
yes i did full clean install, wiping system, data, cache, cache partition, boot, dalvik and whatever else is out there to clean,
few times each, prior to my two attempts to make this room work properly on my phone.
im not OC.
it didnt work for me at all.each time the same bugs.
i have to admit, that CyberGR v.5 is freaking fast ...
i returned to my bugless rom " AndroidMe 1.1.0"
That rom has no modification, isnt the fastest around [ although still pretty fast ]
, but hey man if u looking for some really stable ics rom, try this room " AndroidMe 1.1.0"
I dont know man, i might be very well far from true, but i start thinking, that my ns [9020t] simply does not like matrix kernel, cuz that unlucky for me CyberGR was runnig matrix kernel and i had very similar problems before, when i was running NSCollab, which did include matrix kernel.
BTW find some thread/s regarding clean install , u need to do a CLEAN INSTALL;
-boot in to recovery,
-wipe data/factory reset and cache partition and Dalvik cache,
-from mounts and storage select:
-format system,
-format data,
-format cache,
-format boot.
u can repeat those step if u want, although im not sure is usefull.

I've done this several times.. Mine doesn't even go pass the LG bootscreen and have to pull battery to restart phone. What i also notice is when installs the ROM, it doesnt extract the file, it just goes locating and updating. weird. never had this problem with Bionix 2, EB and ultimate. Thank you!
I'm coming from an og Verizon Droid and we used to go into he partion menu and I'd wipe the system as well..i always wipe everything a few times b4 i flash any new rom

CM7 Nightly Question

Hi all. I recently got my Inspire and have flashed a few ROMS, finally settled on CM7.1 RC. I want to try out the nightly route, but not entirely sure what order to do it all in. This is what I think I need to do:
Go into recovery, format /cache, wipe dalvik cache. Flash nightly 144 over my current 7.1, flash the bbmod165bBFS.zip, then juwe11 script (does this get flashed each nightly?), then reboot. Is this correct, or am I forgetting anything? Do I need to flash gapps again? I already made a NANDroid. Thanks.

you got it. i dont think you have to flash the script everytime and you will not have to flash gapps everytime. btw you dont have to wipe between nightlys just simply flash over
Thanks, I appreciate the quick reply. So I shouldn't bother to wipe cache and dalvik cache? I thought that was pretty much recommended before flashing the majority of stuff. Ok, so I'm off to flash this nightly.
I never wipe between nightlys. But if you ever do encounter problems, then wipe cache, dalvik cache then reflash

I've always wiped cache and dalvic between nightlies. I don't know if it's needed but I've never had any problems with installs. It only takes a few seconds and it's never hurts to be safe.

I flashed 144, no issues so far. Thanks to all of you for the replies. I ended up wiping cache and dalvik cache just to be safe. I know there's a change log, but has there been any changes of consequence over 7.1 RC that are noticeable?
I know the most easily noticeable is if you put a lock screen on you can disable the lockscreen. Plus from 143 on is now on 2.3.5 if I'm not mistaken which does have some slight tweaks.

[Q] Rom stays on stock after installing a custom one?WHY?

I Have the mytouch 4g slide and I have it rooted and S-off
But...After I install a custom rom(it was succesfull) and reboot nothing changes all it gives me my stock rom with everthing erased....So how do I fix that So i can flash a Custom rom
the rom I am trying is NoSense Rom
You probably didn't do a full wipe. You need to format the data, cache, dalvik cache and system. Everything but the SDcard.

[Q] Losing sound when speaking on phone

Hey guys.
As the title says, while im speaking on the phone the sound just stops working. I cant hear or be heard on the other line.
Any suggestions?
i have this issue too after flashing Revolution HD rom.
Help!
Using the same rom. Hmm wonder whats up cause the rom is sweet
any solution?
Have you guys cleared your cache and dalvik cache before installing the rom? If so then just try flashing the rom again over your build without wiping data and clear the cache and dalvik cache again before doing so.
I tried to install two different roms, even the stock rom, but the problem persists.
It just happened to me too .. And I am on stock rom, and stock recovery..

When i installed the rom i did the recommended route (i.e formating before rom installation).
Stigx noted it happend on stock so I wonder if its a radio issue?

Flashing a JB ROM

Hey, I'm currently on MIUI ics. I know I have to wipe/factory reset everything. But is it safe to flash on the current CWM? Or do I need to update it or something? Do I just flash the new JB rom like I would switching from MIUI to a stock ics rom? I'm a noob, sorry if this doesn't make sense.
What version of CWM are you running?
You should be fine, but it never hurts to check. You flash a JB rom just like any other. Wipe wipe wipe and flash.
The whole wipe wipe wipe is completely unnecessary. One wipe is sufficient and any additional won't do anything.
It's like saying that unless you wipe exactly 3 times the Android Gods are going to demand a human sacrifice for your phone to boot.
lol i think dvorak meant wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data (wipe wipe wipe) but that's my take..
anyway, if you can flash MIUI ICS with whatever CWM version you currently have, you should be able to flash other JB ROM. Nandroid as always.. Goodluck!

This is what I did :
1. Boot into recovery and perform a nandroid backup of my MIUI installation.
2. Wipe.
3. Flash XenonHD 9 JB ROM + marmite 4.2 kernel.
My phone is running really smooth now. Good luck.

Yep, that's it. Of course wiping everything 3 times would be unnecessary.

if you get a cluster f*#@ of problems then clean install. It isn't that hard. Use Titanium Backup and good to go.
In Recovery:
1. wipe data/factory reset (this formats /data, /cache and .android_secure on sd)
2. format /system, /boot
this leaves you with only bootloader, recovery and radio...dalvik-cache resides on /data, so it's gone already.
3. flash rom
4. gapps & custom-kernel (if needed). No need to let the phone boot & settle before flashing them (most custom-kernels have a script that automatically wipes /cache & dalvik during kernel-install)
5. reboot
6. Run TB -- restore missing apps with data --1st option under restore
just updating rom:
1. flash rom-zip
2. wipe /cache and dalvik-cache
3. reboot
Do this before reporting any issues on the thread since the problems are often related to this and not the ROM or kernel.
