Hi,
I just tried to root my Android phone using the following script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
I ran the script with my windows 7 computer on my android 4.0 phone (K-Touch V9) and it completely messed up the phone. Once the phone starts the system UI crashes and the phone has to restart again and so on.
Does anyone have any suggestions what might be causing this how this could fixed?
The phone is new so if I loose what I have on it it's not a big deal. A factory reset is absolutely an option.
Thx!
The problem you stated is called bootloops. Try searching for it on xda and google.
You can try factory reset/ full wipe on the phone
Try reflash d script n then wipe cache n dalvik cache b4 restart ur system..

hey all,
on friday I rooted my NS again to check out cm7 rc1. before i was totally stock @ 2.3.2. friday evening i wanted to show my iphone friends the nexus s with cm7. the first one took it and did take some photos. then he smiled and gave it back to me. force close: SORRY: Android.process(???) has stopped unexpectedly.
this error was looping all the thime. i pressed okay and one sec later it was there again. i tried to flash the rom again in recovery, but the error was still there. i did date and cash wipes and some factory resets and then the error was gone.
on sunday i was travelling home on train and suddenly the error was back. i tried again some wipes and then i deceided to restore my nandroid backup. so i was back on 2.3.2. during sunday afternoon and evening i got these errors:
- NS is freezing while it is in standby... if i grab the phone and want to unlock it but the display keeps black -> i have to put out the battery..
- NS is beside my keyboard and suddenly all four buttons are on. display is still black. unlock not possible--> battery again
- NS is freezing while using facebook or twitter app
today... i unrooted it again and went back to a nandroid (2.3.1) guided _here_.
after unrooted again NS wanted to update to 2.3.2 which i confirmed.
about to hours later the errors i explained came back.
am i the first one who bricked NS?
please give me some help how to get it back working correctly, because i love this phone so hard.
I did another factory reset and now the phone is hanging at the google Logo. The four buttons are powered.
This is looping, too.
Yesterday I tried some things to kill these errors. I did:
- factoy reset (in settings menu)
- fastboot erase userdata 2x
- wipe cache, wipe data, wipe devliak
Today the phone was with out a problem, but just a moment ago I wanted to unlock it by pressing the power button but the display didn't react as usal. It is still black and the only thing I can do is to take out the battery....
Last step I can do is to send it back to my girlfriends sister in US so that she can bringt it to Samsung US to get it serviced.
"bricking" the phones involves the phone not being able to turn on or do anything, period. your phone isnt a brick. after doing a "factory reset" you want to reflash whatever rom you are using. it seems like youre having problems with a bad app or some bad data.
thx simms22. i just flashed the newest cm7 nightly with rom manager (incl. wipe). i set up all my apps and 20 min later the error come.
to figure out if it is a bad app problem i do a factory reset now and won't log into google account and see if the error appears.

i did a factory reset and skipped google setup after first boot.
i just entered sim code and let nexus s in idel mode.. about 15 mins later the four buttons were lightened but i couldn't unlock the phone. battery out... and i could power it on.
so it's some kind of bad data problem? but how to find and/or clean this bad data? thx again for your help.
edit: I found a lot on google for "full wipe bad data". I'm reading now! But I may have to ask you something
edit2: in recovery (cwm3.0.0.5) I did: format system, format data, format cache and format sdcard. then i mounted usb and copied this nandroid 2.3.1 to it and flashed it. I booted and installed system update 2.3.2. now testing again without apps.
edit3: the hole day no problems. I only installed twitter and in the evening 2.3.3 manually. This morning again the phone was not unlockable. I had to take out the battery... on my way to work I did a wipe from stock recovery but shortly later the phone freezed while I used the slider to unlock it. oh man that sucks I thought it was fixed.
I make some coffee now and start google'ing. If you have some tipps, please throw them to me.
maybe reflashing radio?

im going to have you try wiping once again. wipe data/factory reset. only this time reupdate to android 2.3.3 right after the factory reset in recovery. dont boot after wiping, update after wipe, then reboot.
--> stock recovery -> wipe / factory reset -> reflashed update (ota2.3.3) -> testing now without installing apps
thanks simms!
Edit: the phone got a freeze while I wanted to unlock it -.-
Edit2: I'm testing now in airplane mode. Maybe the error doesn't come...

im now thinking it might not software related. if it was software, a wipe and reupdate should have fixed it. maybe you should check into a warranty replacement. .
In airplane mode the error is there, too.
Okay thx 4 ur help. I'm starting a service request. Bad day -.-

the only other thing i can think of that might cause something like that after wiping is something bad on your "sd" storage. copy everything you need off your "sd" storage and try wiping that.

I think I allready did this? Or do you talk about this 1gb sd. If so, how to format this one?
Could I find something usefull with logcat?

According to this thread I think you will have to get it replaced:

I made the mistake of flashing a ROM that was still in beta testing. i downloaded it from the ROM manager app. i made recovery and wiped data then flashed the ROM.
Everything went fine til it rebooted and got stuck in a bootloop. I've tried wiping data again to fix the loop but it did nothing. I've tried renaming working ROM to update.zip and tried running it from recovery and it didn't work.
I'm stuck and have no idea what to do. any kind of idea or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Especially since I'm stuck using a piece of crap blackberry storm
Sounds like you're going to have to SBF. Not really too hard and its good to know how to do. Search the DX forums for the files and how-to.

Before you SBF
I was having the same problem and I did a factory reset and cleared the dalvic cache I am not certain I needed to do both but it worked. You have to boot into recovery in order to do so. See: droid-life.com/2010/07/21/how-to-boot-into-recovery-on-the-droid-x (I can't post links) Let me know if you need further help. I would try the davic cache first and then factory reset if that doesn't work.
Firstly, I'm totally new here. I had root my nexus s and installed cynogenmod 7.1 RC on it just last 2 days.
Then I tried a lot of cracked apps til I faced an annoying error non-stopped pop up when installing the new 3d interface apps..
I have no choice to reset my nexus and thought need to take time to reinstall all my apps and data again.
Reboot into recovery > backup (just feel curious to see what will happened) > wipe data/factory reset (decided to clear everything) > reinstall cynogen > reboot
It comes to the starting menu again and asked to enter my account and so on.. then I left it for around 30mins. When I come back to it, all previous app dy installed n restored..
Just wonder how it works even I dy wiped all data.. and how can I reset my nexus in very clean condition?
Thanks in advance!

What happened? All apps tied to your gmail account were restored. Including paid and (if it didn't screw up) even the free apps.
Why it happened? You didn't uncheck the restoration boxes in the Android setup.
Want to keep it clean? Don't check the restoration boxes after a factory reset/full wipe.
the problem started when the phone started rebooting itself every minute and effectively going into reboot loop , I tried the following
1-factory reset , the reset is done but after the restart it is like nothing has been done , the same apps the same data are there and of course the problem is still there
2-Wiped dalvik cache, wiped cache and factory reset from cwm recovery , the same problem, like I have done nothing ,, the rom is still there with all the apps and data , still reboots itself.
3-Installed a stock rom and a modded rom using BOTH Odin and CWM still this freakin device is freezed on the old rom and wont change anything,
can anyone suggest a solution ?
Thanks a lot

Sadly, it sounds like the end of the line for your tab bud. Keep trying but I'd start looking for something new. Good luck.

Oh Crap! What is damaged then? Is it a hardware issue?
Im in the UK and on vodafone and yesterday i updated my s6 to 5.1.1
Now my phone keeps vibrating and playing my notification sound every minute or so even if there isn't notifications pending/received. Not only is this annoying but also runs my battery down quickly. It even does this when my phone is set to silent. Anybody have a cure before i return my phone?
Turn off the phone, hold volume up home and power button at the same time. Once you see the menu just wipe your system cache. It fixed my problems I was experiencing when I updated my phone.

Do you need to redo all your settings and reinstall apps when you do this though?
Wiping cache will not delete your data that may result to reinstalling your apps. Though its best to back up your device before doing it.

Just wipe cache
Choose Wipe Cache Partition. Choosing the other will delete all your date and reset S6 to factory state.
How can i format system partition ? But not installing custom recovery ...
The problem is that after flashing 5.1.1 with odin the phone has a lot of errors = force close...
I have tried to wipe data and cache several times and setup from start but seems that something stays from previous Rom....
