Nexus S warranty issue

Hi all,
My Nexus S has decided to go strange on me, in short no sync, and when fully charged and plugged into wall socket the screen flickers.
Now I know this could be fixed under warranty, however the bootloader is unlocked, and USB isn't recognised so I can't undo it.
Any possible fixes? Anyone had anything similar happen?
Anything would be appreciated, I love that phone and just want it to work properly .
Cheers in advance.

After 4.3 update, car charger won't work.

I've found a number of threads pertaining to this issue on the s4 but was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue. I've tried numerous chargers, including an official Verizon car charger but none will work. Though a USB cable variant will work, which doesn't make any sense. I even went to Verizon's support site (useless) and they suggested a factory reset. This should only be a last resort for, in my opinion, a software bug and guess what? It still didn't work. I'm at a loss here and was wondering if anyone had suggestions. My girlfriends s4 will charge using the same car charger but my s3 won't. I took the official update, just FYI.

So after 30 minutes with Verizon tech support and hard resetting my phone numerous times my phone will not charge using a car charger. Even though I have insurance Verizon doesn't want to send me a new phone for their fear of the same problem happening again due to the Verizon's and Samsung's recognition of the software update problem. So both parties are aware of this issue but neither one can give an immediate fix. Of course if I push the issue they'll send me a new phone..Guess I'll mull this over and see what I want to do.

I have a similar issue. No car charger works for me, but the USB connection in my car will charge my phone. Also an A/C charger that puts out less than 1A doesn't work, it just keeps my phone awake, screen on, and drains the battery. 1A or more and I'm cool.
I really don't know why this happens. It used to charge on anything, AC or DC, but now it's super selective. This happened to me on CM 10.3, although now I'm on CM 11 and it still happens. I dirty flashed CM 11, I'll probably do a complete wipe soon, reflash CM 11 and see what happens with the charging issue.

Nexus slower while charging

Hi guys,
Anyone else facing this issue? While charging my Nexus become slower and its kinda annoying. Main reason why its annoying is because its slower it often disable/enable some command from quick toggles while I am pulling down notification bar.

Try different cable is the solution given in all the other threads

Screen wake issues

At least 5 times a day when I try to turn on my phones screen I'm unable to do do and I'm forced to reboot it. I don't think the issue is with the ROM because I've encountered the same problem on multiple Roms.
Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this?

sounds like sod(sleep of death). it can be a rom issue, a kernel issue, an app issue, or you need to raise voltages.

OK thanks, I'll investigate

[Q] bottom part of screen is non-responsive

is anyone having an issue with the bottom part of their screen be non-responsive. I posted on the One+ forums and also noticed that I'm not the only one having this issue but there seems to be NO response from One+ itself.
Does anyone have a workaround if they have experienced this?
Thanks in advance.

Are you using a screen filter app? If so disable it, this is the cause of the bottom part of the screen to not work particularly when you're installing apks

No, not using a screen filter. I've checked the One+ site and it seems to be something that is affecting some users.

Try to ground the phone my plugging in a earphone. When I first have my phone back in Sept I had the same problem.
