Recheck/redo step 1. Check all details carefully and follow exactly. Uninstall all things LG before beginning to avoid driver/software conflicts. Turn off antivirus to avoid deletion of required system files or .dll. You must be logged onto pc as administrator for some steps.

thank you , but how exactly can i do this ,, please i need help am phone less since 5 days
Not needed to reflash whole ROM. Just flash the bootloader via flashtool to the recovery partition and you will forceboot your phone to Android.
In fastboot do: "fastboot flash recovery bootloader.bin"

For omap4430 and LG drivers, do part 1 here (you should be logged onto your pc as administrator if you are not already).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195753
Be sure to uninstall all LG stuff and reboot your computer before beginning, and temporarily disable antivirus software when extracting files.
After that, your pc will be set up to use Fastboot to install a bootloader, reflash the phone, or whatever you wish (flashing firmware will write bootloader, but it will also write everything else).

You missed something then.

Just try to relax and take it slow, one little bit at a time, and don't get mad. That will just make things worse like wiping your system for no reason. There is no rush; zipping through the details will probably result in something important missed or misunderstood. Driver install has always been the same, even when all we had was Fastboot and ICS ported from the Korean device. It has worked for many thousands of people before you and you have done nothing to your phone, that I have read, that could cause damage that cannot be fixed (hey, maybe I missed something, but as near as I see, it can be restored). Unless you have hardware failure, which sounds unlikely at this point, all I can say is try to relax and start over. The directions have been tested and refined many times over and are just about as complete and detailed as you will find.
And you can thank LG for driver install being as fiddly as it is for this particular device :banghead:

damn you don't need lg service for something so simple... if all else failed just flash a full .kdz rom, your phone will return to 100% stock and will boot fine [i use this for .kdz flashing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22189294 ]. Or like lzzar said try the recovery bootloop breaker too:

I tried rooting my phone, but when I flashed CWM my Nexus S stopped booting... it freezes on the Google screen in the intro. I can boot into Fastboot, and cwm, but I cant connect the Internal memory to the computer without it booting like it is supposed to. Does anybody know of anything I can do to fix my phone and bring it back to stock??
There are guides for returning to stock stickied in the Nexus S 4G Android Development forum.
Before you do that though, try flashing a different recovery, like the one linked to here or here.
Btw, which guide did you use? You're not the first person to have this problem, and it's really bugging me (though probably not as much as it's bugging you :-o).
Maximilian Mary: I tried to post the link, but since I'm a new member I have to wait 8 posts before I can post a URL.... :/
I will try a different recovery, but how would I flash a rom if I can connect my phone via usb mount?

I'm a little out of my depth here, but I think it's
fastboot flash system system.img.
You don't need to put the rom image on the sdcard. Just put it in the same folder as fastboot.
It was titled "How to Root Nexus S!"
And I will try to flash recovery and try that rom command, thank you )

There's a button for that.
I got the link. Thanks. I looks like you flashed a boot image that is incompatible with your phone. That guide was for the T-Mobile Nexus S. (Why they're screwing with the boot.img to begin with, I really don't understand.)
Download the attached file, and unzip it to the same folder as fastboot. The md5 sum is d4a9508f9321eb25df3383f00f571e8b. Then
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You'll probably also want to use one of the recoveries listed above to
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
, but leave system alone for now. Flash that only as a last resort.

OMG!! im having the same issue. could you please post the link for ODIN so i can return to stock and take it from there please? I rely on my phone so much and i need it asap thank you.
same problem with me.
but in my case, the phone not only freeze after the google logo before boot. I tried several times to pull the battery and start the phone again, it took several times until the phone can boot normally again.
After that, my nexus s can work as usual. but it only takes 3-4 hour until it freeze/hangs or reboot automatically and show image of green robot lay down with red alert triangle...
sometimes I noticed all application force closed like gmail, gtalk, etc. (its a basic apps instead of 3rd party app)
History :
- root GB 2.37 using superoneclick
- upgrade OTA to ICS 4.04
- problem happens
- root using guide : nexusshacks.com
- unroot using guide : nexusshacks.com
- back to factory setting on GB 2.34
- upgrade OTA to ICS 4.04
- Still got that problem.....
I'm using Nexus S 4G Sprint, pls help me guys...
nexus s won't boot
I had the same problem and read elsewhere that heating the phone with a hairdryer solves the problem.
I must say, indeed it did.
I removed the battery and the SIM card, then heated up the phone (so it really feels warm) put back the battery and sim and simsalebim the phone started again. and is still working since (now already a few day's)
It seems that a component in the phone is heat sensitive, the question in my mind is when will this show again and do I need to consider buying a new phone.
But sofar it works
PS I also tried hard reset factory reset the lot, but in the end only heating up helped.
Good luck, David
I fixed this problem! but I had to wipe all user data by rooting it using nexusrootICS. It finally boots up and the phone works now... that's all I need.
Hi all , just joined xda-developers but i spend straight 14 hours trying to fix this DAMM photon q yesterday
all i got in the end is a normal boot after following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001108
BUT at the startup , the screen comes like for a millisecond and then this " starting services" logo doesn't go at all...it just continues forever
any help would be appreciate .
Can you explain what your setup is, and exactly what you've done to get where you are?
For example, you were bootloader official unlocked, on CWM and asa-10, etc.
Thanks.

Still doesn't tell me what you've done, what state the phone is actually in, etc.
I thought my question was pretty straightforward. Unless you provide more detail, I don't know how anyone will be able to help you.
Is this a stolen device? Why is it not qualified for the official unlock? Either way, how does that play into what's wrong with the device?
Did you have custom recovery on it? Give some details!!!

i think i am a noob at explaining things but let me try again...i don't know the exact history of this phone , my friend gave it to me yesterday and its not stolen ... he paid his insurance every month but then who know what he did... i have no idea why its not qaulified for the official unlock probably because he bought a new phone on the same line so the company deactivated this phone..
ok so when i got the phone yesterday , the bootlocker logo appeared and i was unable to do anything ...then i installed CWMrecovery and it was successfull and then i installed every possible rom available online as far as i know but same thing happened with all of them ..... successfully installed , it reboots and little square thing saying " starting services..." and then it does not go away at all ... but at the same time i am able to bring the top menu ..and go to the settings and everything from there but i can't go to home screen since ...it is black and is occupied by "starting services.."
so finally i came accross this thread for master reboot and i followed it ....i installed TWRrecovery and made backup and then restored a backup providers by that guy ... i flashed new stock recovery after that... so following his thread , he told that if all went successful ... it will return to original stock
and now i am at the same screen as previous... " starting serivces..." my friend told me he tired to root it and he messed up really bad ..so i believe there is still some old files in the internal storage from previous rom versions.... but i deleted everything......wiped, data facotry reset and then
installed a clean backup provided by the thread starter...... and everyone else had success except me ...
i hope i answered your questions if not .. i would aprreciate if you tell me what exactly you want to know ..... thanks
i also tired every US ROMS from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/asanti_c/list.php
and all of them showed " starting services.." after i installed them from sdcard using CWMrecovery.

hello everyone,
i'm developing a game with unity and sometimes when i compile and inject the game on the phone it crashes and forces me to factory reset the phone through fastboot. i've done it like 3 times already with no problems.
but today it happened again and the phone just wouldnt recover, i've tried the fix that this video (youtube.com/watch?v=laU6NQ0LxR0) shows but it still does not boot.
I am able to enter fastboot and my computer recognizes the mobile phone so that's a great start :victory:
not sure what guide to follow since i'm not sure whether the problem is on the rom or something else.
can someone give me a tip on what fix should I try? cant really afford to lose my phone right now
it has (had) a stock rom 4.4.2 with stock bootloader, tho i tried to install the fix in the video i've said earlier and i'm not sure whether it changed the rom or not.
thanks

Let me start with, Thank you so much for your time
However, It seems like I'm unable to install the right drivers on my PC for my phone and adb doesn't detect my device (which is strange as CF-auto-root did see the device and worked fine)
I walked through multiple tutorials about installing drivers. Actually have windows detecting my phone fine (I see it in device manager) and I've reinstalled google USB drivers multiple times now, rebooting my PC and deleting drivers and reinstalling them
I've justed factory reset my phone, but that just got me to a Google logo stuck (which I read about in your link in your signature)..
Because adb doesn't detect my device I'm unable to pull build.prop... which means I feel stuck again.
Would you have a direction for me to go towards to continue my journey through Nexus5-Land?

If you're using Windows 8, 8.1 or 8.1U1 you'll need to disable driver signature enforcement.
Try flashing the factory images in fastboot?
Could somebody not just make a flashable zip with the correct build.prop?
Failing that, just reflash the ROM.

Flashing the correct build.prop or ROM you were using should have sorted it out, without losing any data (you would have lost any system mods if you flashed the ROM again, though).
I'm only mentioning this in case somebody else searches and finds this thread for the same problem.
I've changed the build.prop loads of times on many devices and only once it went into a bootloop. Flashing a build.prop zip sorted it.
I rooted my phone and was about to install Nexboost V6 rom from following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/rom-nexboost-cm11-camera-t2852519
Below were the steps given.
Flash 11.0.A.6.8 firmware (4.0.4 ftf)
Flash Poseidon Kernel
Boot into CWM
Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache
Format system
Flash the ROM, enjoy your Sony Xperia Nexus
I performed first two steps and tried to boot into recovery but when restarting device it only keeps on vibrating and green/blue led pops up continously.
Before this sometimes sony xperia logo kept appearing and when i pressed volume up/down for booting into recovery, it kept restarting by itself.
I dont know if my recovery got affected or what..
Please help me in this regard.
Thanx in advance...
hello, first thing first, no CWM if your bootloader is locked!!!!
okay, these steps can be done one a time, so make sure where the problem is exactly..
first..take off the battery and put it in again and FLASHMODE. flash the ftf and make a full boot if the phone boots with no problems then you can continue.
then, power off and FASTBOOT MODE mod and make the second step that is flashing UltraGamerHD's kernel and make a full boot to system again...
and so..... if your phone didnt face any problems you can install the ROM.
(make sure you download the kernel from the official website)

I have unlocked the bootloader. Now the guy from that post of Nexboost Rom quoted
" Retry the process.
Btw, I made a mistake.
The version number of the FTF is 11.1.A.0.68, not 11.0.A.6.8 "
I have found that ftf file and is in download.
Do that make a difference in my procedure. ??
oh yes (unexpected mistake) lol
dowload 4.0.4 ICS from here
for xperia E DUAL:
11.1.A.0.68 =4.0.4=ICS
11.3.A.3.1=4.1=JB
Ohk fine.. I will get back when it will finish, i hope i dont have to face any other issue.
Anyways thnx a lot for ur help. Keep helping

Hey TheBrainCandy,
Firmware and kernel were installed successfully but i faced an issue while installing ROM, it showed some error as :
" E:Error in /sdcard/NexboostV5.zip
Status 7
Installation aborted. "
I surfed related to this error and found out to edit the binary script, also followed it but still there is no progress..
M stucked again at this point. Looking forward for ur valuable help.
Please help, Thanx in advance
i saw your posts there and the "installation aborted" is just a quoted message that doesnt affect the ROM or the installation so you better refer it the ROM owner maybe he could help you other than that,
make sure that your system/ is mounted,,, just make sure you followed the instructions if you're facing a problem with this ROM, you may wanna look at my jellybean ROM. good luck once again
Thanx a lot friend.. Please give me link of your thread..

setup guide doesn't matter, if the phone works fine after that message then yeah not a problem, if its stuck there then its the ROM's fault not your installation steps
