Bad Bootloader in Nexus S 4G - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I made a bad flash bootloader I put in my Nexus S 4G a Bootloader.img of korean version. Now I'm not root and my USB can't set connection. All things are working less USB and CDMA radio. I can start in fastboot mode and download mode but the usb connection is broken. I tried to follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566475 but when I opened my nexus s 4G the electronics things was in different side. I made a USB to UART converter and I could see a linux debugger and a state console and sent me a message such as: The bootloader are not ready to start a USB connection. As I have a Android 4.0.4 working now I'm waiting a Jelly Bean Updated to patch a new Bootloader image. What do you recommend me to fix it?

Flash this.

I guess If you flashed NS4G bootloader, WIFI maybe working.

Thanks you very much but I don't have CWM recovery and it can start in fastboot mode but my PC(Windows MAC and Linux) doesn't recognize it when I plug in it. I thing the protocol USB is broken for the bad bootloader for this reason I can't set connection with fastboot or download mode.

You can try to flash the below official ICS Stock roms via CWM, then try to reconnect with PC to flash via ODIN for complete stock.

Note: These roms are deodexed, so it is not unmodified stock.

Do you have the necessary drivers installed on the pc? Try installing Kies on the pc. It will install the proper drivers for you.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes i have installed keis i even downloaded the drivers straight from the Samsung website too. Everytime i connect my phone to the computer(any computer) it says usb not recognized/malfunction. I have read many threads about how to fix this but none have worked for me. Im thinking about returning this phone because its still under warranty but its rooted.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

Help...Phone not being recognized by PC after Unlocking it

So I just bought a galaxy note 2 off of someone and I got it unlocked. So to unlock it the guy put it in the PC and the computer recognized it and it got unlocked. After, I put it into my PC but it is not being recognized by the computer. I can charge it though and yes I did turn USB debugging on. Can someone please help?

You could try re-installing the drivers and/or associating the currently install ones to your device.

In that case just associate it with currently installed driver (it will not affect your other device).

[Q] Can I do this?

Quick question- Can I install Samsung stock firmware in Android system recovery (3e) through the option that says "apply update from external storage?"
I am asking this rather than just doing it from Odin b/c for some reason my phone wont go into download mode.
No. You'd need to get a signed zip from Samsung and good luck on that.
Edit Why don't you use kies of all you want is stock jb?

Nexus 5 unable to authorize

My friend got a new nexus 5 and for some reason the window that usually pops up to authorize the computer does not show up. Tried different cables, debugging is enabled, tried hard reset, software is updated. My nexus connects and authorizes fine. Inability to authorize is preventing us from being able to flash custom recovery. I was able to boot device into bootloader mode and unlock it though, but no luck when it is booted. Any ideas?

Yes, you know how a window would popup asking to reject or accept when debugging is enabled? That window never comes up. So, apps like nexus root toolking or most adb commands do not work.

You may need to run your pc without antivirus and firewall.. Right click a program and select run as administrator..

Also try switching/toggling modes when you plug the USB cable in

Sounds like you don't have the latest adb&drivers. This happened to me also. Those can undoubtedly be found somewhere on here by searching.

Not just the drivers, use a newer adb too. If that doesn't work you can clear the authorized devices on the phone and there is also a file located on your computer that I think needs to be deleted also.
My nexus was really picky on the debug 'handshake' whereas I had to remove all authorized computers/delete the file on my pc and use the newest adb and drivers - and even then I had to reboot the phone first (once everything was cleared) and use the newest adb & drivers to make it work right.

[Q] Samsung Infuse CWM Without USB?

Hi XDA Developers!
I am a noobie at all of this developing stuff. Although I need some help with an old Samsung Infuse 4G. The Micro USB port is broken and I am stuck with the stock recovery for some reason. I have SuperSU installed and it works properly. The stock recovery keeps on saying "signature verification failed" when I try to download a custom ROM. I would like to flash Beanstock 4.4.2 KitKat on the device. I understand all risks of messing with CWM with a broken Micro USB port. Is there any way I can get the CWM Recovery on my device without a Micro USB port? I am very thankful for all your responses.
Thank You All In Advance,
Infuse Dude

If you have a broken usb port or one that doesn't work properly, use the stock rom that comes with it.
you will have a functional phone with a bad usb port.
If you try to install custom recovery and custom rom, you will end up with a useless piece of hardware.
fix the port or abandon your kk dream.
Oh, I knew that, but still doesnt work

I would even be really happy for ICS. As long as it is an update from this garbage Gingerbread I am fine. Well, I might as well just get the Nexus 5 for KK. But I am willing to take risks... Do you know a way to get CWM without a computer that will actually work on the Infuse 4G?
