I rooted my sprint nexus s lastnight and installed cm9 nightly build rom. i realized that i had no signal at all. i went into networks and get an error trying to scan for networks and tried to flash another cm9 rom and still have no signal. i dont know what else to do i guess i really messed up not making a backup of my stock rom. any help would be really awesome.

okay, you maybe flashed a rom NOT for your Nexus S model, you flashed one for the 3g version (i presume you have the 4G version, Sprint version), so you should flash a rom that is for the NS 4G.
so try wipe data, and flash a rom from here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=crespo4g&type=stable, just to be sure, can you check your model by checking a sticker under the battery, and tell me what it is.
You probably flashed a GSM Nexus s Rom. Stick to the Nexus S 4G forum and it shouldn't happen again.

i had tried to install a s4g rom when i first started lastnight but when i did i kept getting an error msg and the the installation was aborted. my model # is sph-d720
D720 is NS4G. You could've gotten a bad download. Try redownloading and flashing a 4G rom.

which recovery do i use for the sprint version?
If you do decide to use those factory images to return to stock you would of course used the ones labeled nexus s 4g
Those are to be flashed through fastboot. Read up on how to do it if you don't know.
abort message happends when the md5 sum doesn't add up right, i have these problems too, this is how i solved it: i use TWRP and i download the rom using my phone, i'm not sure why, but whenever i download a rom using my pc, installation gets aborted.

TWRP is a touch based custom recovery.

***ONLY VERIZON GS3***
A lot of people have been having problems with flashing CM10.1 and the SlimBean 4.2.1 beta. This guide will tell you how to fix the data. At first it looks like you lost your IMEI, but you probably didn't. It is a simple fix.
What you will need:
Odin: http://samsung-updates.com/Odin307.zip
Stock Rom: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wjaifmod7d78lt0/stock.vzw_root66.tar
Instructions:
1. Go into Odin put the stock rom into the PDA part and make sure the check mark next to it is checked.
2. Boot into Download mode by hitting Volume Down + Power + Home
2. Make sure only "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" are checked under options (if not you can seriously mess up your phone).
3. Flash the stock rom using Odin.
4. Once it says pass in Odin take your phones battery out and boot into recovery by hitting Volume Up + Power + Home.
5. Hit wipe data/factory reset (your phone should restart)
6. Hit the bottom left then right then left then right then volume up to pass activation.
7 Then type *2767*3855# into the phone once you set it up (you shouldn't have to press call).
Now you phone should be fixed, and you should be able to root, unlock your boot loader and try again.
Tip:
When flashing SlimBean 4.2.1 beta 1 and CM10.1 use a dirty flash over a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 rom.
- Dirty flash is when you don't clear your data before you flash.
I think you forgot a step, after step 4 when they boot into recovery they need to wipe data/factory reset and then boot the ROM, and THEN dial the number to re-provision.
Thank you for this. I have been trying to fix my phone for a couple days now from this roaming thing. I flashed the stock VRALHD, erased data, called that *2767blahblah number over and over. Nothing seemed to work. Finally, after leaving my family's Christmas party to catch my ferry back home, I figured I would try to dial that *2767*3855# again so I'd be able to let my family know I made the boat. After reboot, I had data! Not sure what changed but I'm afraid to reboot or do anything in fear of losing data again and being stuck in roaming. I'm going to try this fix when I get home. Thanks again, and merry Christmas!

Once the phone successfully re-provisions you won't have any problems with data anymore, unless you flash a 10.1 build without RIL support for data that is. If you want to flash 10.1 again make sure it is the 12/24 nightly or later.

Thank you. Any ideas as to why it took so many attempts at re-provisioning? Like I said, I've been trying for two days now.

This is a touchy subject. I once had the triangle and roaming with dual clock. I did all I could with all the fixes. Wound up getting sim replaced. Then happened again with the slim bean update. So both were triangles. But the luck the second time was flashing the backup of strumer jons miui. It has all the nice deep network settings. And it worked. I see now many are talking about the fix in most cases kust going in to network settings and chainging to ruim from nv ...then auto. So try this if you have the roaming triangle and still have your imei and number.. min

Hello i am dealing with this right now as i type this. I have gone into Network settings and switched everything i can possibly find, nothing seems to get rid of the triangle
Also tried flashing other roms i had backed up
Also tried a fresh factory reset
Right now im downloading this ROM and Odin, and ill give it a whirl. If all else fails i guess i have to go get a new SIM? What do i tell them at the counter? Will they care that I am rooted? Do i even need to bring my phone to them or can i just bring the SIM and ask for a new one?

To the OP ... you mentioned follow these steps then i should be able to root/unlock ... but I already have. Do you mean that by following these steps I will lose my root and ill need to do it again?

I wish this guide was out a couple days ago I had to figure it out by googling and flashing through Odin/face plants into keyboard. But what he says is what I did works great!

I feel like such a nub lol, never did use Odin. Im following this process ... i booted the phone and i see the little android robot. It says "Downloading... Do not turn off Target!"
I open Odin and i pointed the PDA path to the ROM i downloaded, check box is checked ... I hit start, and nothing happens.
Just says "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)"
Did i do it wrong?
EDIT, apparently i had to wait for it to "ADD" my drive ... now i hit start and its doing all sorts of ish ... wish me luck!

I have gotten through to step 5 (factory reset) and now booted. It appears to be in an "Activation Loop" or something? I see the triangle is on top, and actually it sometimes switches to an "R" but then back to a triangle.
The phone says "Activating ..." and every minute it dials out to some number and connects for 2 seconds, then disconnects, and just keeps repeating.
It did that maybe 5 or 6 times, now it says my only option is to restart or make an emergency call. Cannot dial the code in step6 from the emergency keypad, it wont let me.
Im restarting, not sure what to do, there are no options.
Is this normal?

The R or triangle is what this is fixing that means your roaming just get out of the activation screen and call the number.
Right on ... it worked! I googled "How to get past activation screen" and could not believe that tapping actually worked, but it did lol. Dialed the number and bam .. service.
Now im assuming i need to reroot and unlock? Ill get on that now
Thanks so much to everyone.

No, you don't need to unlock, the root66 ROM preserves your unlocked bootloader. All you have to do is flash Clockworkmod recovery, or TWRP recovery, and then you can flash back your custom ROM
So I originally had the roaming issue. Went back to the stock rom and entered the code provided in the dialer, re rooted and unlocked bootloader and flashed a custom recovery. Tried flashing 10.1 again...still the same deal. Roaming. How can I get past this roaming with an android 4.2 rom!? has anyone been successful at it?
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated haha

You have to do a dirty flash over a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 rom.
Post over at the cyanogenmod forums suggest trying:
Go into Mobile Settings -> Mobile Networks
Change CDMA mode to RUIM
Toggle Airplane Mode (or reboot)
Haven't been able to verify myself, but if it can save someone from reflashing it's worth a shot.

This worked for me but I have a couple question.
- How do I get to be bone stock from here? I don't want to be rooted or flash any roms
For some reason, I don't have any 4LTE service only 3g.
I went to status update two times and both times I got upgraded to 4.04 not 4.1
Basically I would like the phone like it just came out of the box and I did an OTA update for 4.1
Thanks.

So I did the new 4.4.3 firmware update & when it rebooted I noticed I don't get 4G LTE anymore. I tried changing network mode, airplane mode & checking APNs and nothing is working.

You can try to flash the new stock recovery an then do a factory reset an see if that repairs what got jacked up. If you do try this it will wipe your phone an remove your SD card. An backup your phone on your PC. Can't say it will work but it might. You will need the recovery from new ota ..just throwing out ideas.

I probably should've checked before trying, but is this for the latest Feb update? It's bootlooping on my Metro Stylo 2 Plus. The download links work though.
Any chance you could make a full zip of the Tmobile Stylo 2 Plus? I am trying to "convert" the Metro one into a Tmobile one so I can use a Tmobile sim in it. Thanks.

Try restoring your odex stock first and make sure you install this per the op directions only. Let me know if you got it.
Thanks..
If you want a t-mobile rom you must flash any k550 .dz file using the LG UP tool. Even if you do your t-mobile or any other sim card will not work unless your phone is network unlocked.. Meaning you paid for an unlock service or the phone has at least 90 days worth of active service.

When I tested the procedure, that will happen because you have to wipe data and format. Put the zips on your sd_card and flash from there. Ext_sdcard is preferred that's all.. Just don't wipe System ,Internal storage and External.
Ok Thanks. So far running smooth.
Hey, thanks for the response. I tried it several times, restoring my backup after each bootloop. I know your zip only has the four folders you said to delete (and then you flash them back from the zip).
Anyway, I tried flashing a dz file, but it did not work and I got to the miniOS scray looking thing. Luckily I was able to flash twrp back and restored my backup once again.
I am gonna keep trying to put the Tmobile rom on there though because I had the first Stylo and it was locked to Metro, but once I converted to the Tmobile rom, it worked fine. Hopefully that is still the case.
But yeah, thanks for providing the files.
P.S. I think my Stylo Plus 2 is still on the original rom from August, cause I just got it yesterday and didn't update before I rooted.

Your bootloader OEM unlock in developer options must be checked and of course you already unlocked your bootloader via fastboot command..Fastboot OEM unlock..
Make sure you have a permissive boot.img. I posted a boot in the op if needed.... Just some food for thought.

I thought I saw a Google forms link on your signature 2 days ago asking who wants unlock? I filled the form. I hope to get a free unlock for my tmobile s7. It currently $70 on eBay. Been going up since last month. ?

Will this procedure clear data? Factory reset?
Can someone please confirm if this clears existing data? I thought Odin doesn't work in this case because of the locked bootloaded on Verizon?

Yes, it probably will. If you are that worried about it, backup your data first. Odin will work even with the bootloader locked. Locked bootloader does not prevent you from loading official firmware.

What app can we use to back up all data like apps sceen layout ect... since we don't have root on Verizon, I know we can't use titanium back up because we don't have root bit is their a similar app to do what that does

Not sure you'll be able to preserve that. I was referring to user data, not system data.

Helium or My Backup Pro, but they are limited without root, which means some data can be restored, but not all.

I extract and I get several files? None of them being .tar files. Does anyone have the 4 files to flash in odin? Am I the only one who didn't get the 4 files mentioned when extracting the Md5? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Nobody?

You have to go in odin and select PDA and then add the entire md5 file! If you don't want to do it that way, then you have to download a zipping app like 7z or similar and create the .tar yourself.. Which is pointless unless you're planning on flashing 1 file like the boot.img for a reason or other.. The md5 file has all of the files that need to be flashed there's no need to unzip the files. Just flash as is!
If you're downloading from the OP then you need to unzip the file from the .zip because you can only flash .md5 or .tar.

Thanks. I have issue of my note saying "searching for signal" with full bars until i make a call. I dont think flashing the full file in Ap reset my modem to stock.

Try flashing a modem only file then which is for that signal.. Also boot into recovery using the 3 button combo and clear your Cache after a flash..

I've cleared it after flash and no fix. Does anyone have a modem file I could use. Does it have to be from the same firmware version? Sorry just not really experienced just need to fix this phone it's killing me. I got it off Craigslist don't know the history of it I just know that flashing a fresh stock rom didn't fix the issue.

Is it an actual Verizon phone? And do you know for sure that it's Verizon? Go into settings then about phone and tell me what model it says. If it says other than SM-N920V then it's not a Verizon one.. You can only flash firmware for a specific carrier.. Also check the APN settings too.. And about the modem no you don't have to use the same exact one from the same firmware version you can try a different one however I don't think that'll fix the problem.. Try checking the APN settings first.. Also if you just dropped a sim card into it without first giving Verizon the IMEI then it's not gonna work! You'll have to give them the IMEI and if the IMEI is bad the phone will never work at least not with Verizon.

It is indeed n920v clean imei through verizon prepaid. It gets apn through SIM card which is accurate I have signal T all times and internet/mms work. However when I boot my phone or randomly every so often it will say 'searching for service' throughout the day while still full having signal. During this time I don't receive calls/messages/internet notifications and it is stuck that way until I notice it and dial my voicemail which it then displays "Verizon wireless" and then all notifications come through.

Maybe try using this downgraded version from my Android File Host and flash it using odin but before flashing take the sim card out and after it's done flashing immediately do a factory reset by holding the power and volume down button and after the screen turns off and then back on select shut down and then boot into recovery and do the factory reset after it's finished put the sim card back in then turn it on and go through all the setup and see if it works.. Let the phone charge some first don't try doing this at 3% battery cause if it shuts down in the middle it can brick the phone. Not likely but it could.
