I plugged my phone to my computer and put it in fastboot mode to install stock yakju again (I left AOKP).
Without thinking, I typed "fastboot -w" believing it would be a factory reset. Little did I know it also cleaned the whole /data partition. How could I not remember that?
Words cannot express my anger right now
I guess I'm screwed royally now since I had some important and hard-to-find stuff on there?

Not sure how it works with MTP, but you might be able to mount the SD Card partition on your computer and run PhotoRec (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec).
If you're going to do it, do it as SOON as you can, before writing anything else to it.
There's free apps that you can install on your phone to recover stuff from your sdcard. You could try one of them.
I recently did this in my ns4g. I used some freeware called recuva. It worked very nicely

Hey guys!
I just downloaded ViciousMIUI and installed on to my GNex, first the contacts app kept on crashing (Android.Process.Acore) but we all know how to fix that...
And then I noticied, that my on-screen controls had gone... I'm currently restoring my codename Android ROM, so I have got enough time to ask, if anyone else has had this problem with this ROM, or is it just my phone, again...
I would appreciate quick answers...

It has nothing to do with being on contract. Basicly it is one if these options:
1) Bad download. This CAN happen from ROM manager also.
2) You messed up the install, you said something about messing with SystemUI so that may have been it.
3) Your phone is borked.....not likely at all.
My bet is 1 or 2.

The rom there doesn't have pit file. I can't seem to able to open the img files in there.

You are coming from an HTC device, yes?
A bad radio flash on HTC devices will certainly brick your device.
That is not the case with Samsung devices though. I've seen some individuals with bad radio flashes, and fastboot still works fine to flash a new one.

I don't know if if the Galaxy Nexus suffers from the same issue as the Samsung Moment, but with that phone, flashing a boot.png (on the GN it's the very first static, black and white 'Google' screen when the phone turns on) larger in size that the existing one, or having too many colors, etc would cause an instant perma-brick. I don't know if we're to the point with the GN where we can freely flash that sort of thing, but I know it worked (didn't work?) on the Moment.
The first post here has the list of guidelines for flashing boot.png images that were discovered trial-by-fire by Moment users.
So, are you guys saying it's next to impossible to brick the Galaxy Nexus if just flashing the basic stuff?

You have no idea how relieved that makes me.
I come from an HTC Nexus One and I never once flashed a radio on it, and I didn't wanna mess too much with bootloaders as an incorrect flashing of the two would acquire a brick.
I'm only on user-level (and flashing, of course) so I don't think I'll ever manage to brick it.

Guys -
I installed the Splashtop 2 on my Nexus 7 running AOKP and Trinity Krenel, and it bricked my device twice. Just running the software and suddenly it crashes, then no buttons work. Then the screen starts to flash and it shuts down. I was unable to get into recovery. I need to push a new recovery to get it running back again. This has happen twice today. Anyone else having this issue?
Its bricked?
So you put it in the trash or sent it back to ASUS?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is not related to splashtop.
I had an issue using Splashtop 2 today that freaked me out a little. Going from Sharp to Smooth froze my N7 and when it booted back up, which took longer than usual, the speaker made a faint but distinct "hissing" noise then a louder "tap"
Everything is working again but that's never happened before. Not sure I liked Splashtop 2 enough to bother with it after that.

No.. I know how to get out of a jam. The device would not boot afterward the system froze, then rebooting I got stuck at Google screen. Then it wouldn't get into recovery from bootloader I had to flash a new recovery and flash back up. Sounds like it was bricked at the time to me.

I would see why you would say this....however this happened twice when using the new splashtop. My set up or system has not changed in days. Only thing that changed was me installing splashtop.

Installed HD2 this morning and same problem, freeze when changing from sharp to smooth. Hard reset twice, to get it to boot now the speaker sounds like its blown, was streaming some video from the PC. Running EOS + stock kernel.

Try acessing recovery through boot loader on a healthy N7 and not plugged in, you will find that you can't access recovery. There's quite a few "Q" threads saying that I OC to 1600 and overvolted by 50MHz across the board, and my nexus fried? Why is this??

I seems to be fixed after todays update, but it's still strage that single app could crash the whole device.
Phone was working fine and I went to switch to airplane mode. All of a sudden it rebooted itself and got stuck on the spinning CM startup screen cirlce, I let it sit for about 10 minutes and never booted. Only option was a battery pull and after doing that I tried starting it up again and same thing, it sat at the spinning CM cirlce for about 10 minutes. Went into recovery and restored a nandroid from a few weeks ago that I know was working well and after start up it still got stuck at the spinning CM startup cirlce.
Before this issue the screen would dim after about 7 seconds while on the spinning CM cirlce then start up. Interesting thing I noticed is every time it would get stuck on the spinning CM startup circle the color never dimmed like usual to indicate the Nitest kernel kicked in. Any ideas on what to do besides odin back to fc09 and re-root? I'm at work right now so can't odin. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I'm having a similar problem; I'm way too ignorant to diagnose such problems using logs, so I have to resort to options that do not involve comprehension of Android. I'm running SlimBean 2.1; for the first few days it was brilliant, the best ROM I've tried yet. Then it got stuck in boot-up. I tried popping the battery, reflashing the ROM, wiping the three memory caches and reflashing the ROM, and met with minimal success. Sometimes it would boot, but usually it locked up first.
At a loss for what to try next, I popped out my microSD card and it booted fine. I then put the card in while the phone was running. Again, no problems yet. So now I'm backing up the card and I plan to reformat it and then see if the phone can reliably boot with it in. If so, I'll start re-adding data to the card from my backup until it stops being reliable again.
I'm posting these comments on the off chance that someone else is having these problems and reflashing the ROM doesn't help them.

Try wiping data, cache, dalvik cache, and format system then install the rom. If that doesn't work then you may need to delete the boot animation and I can walk you through how to do that but try wiping all 4 and flashing the rom first.

It's not too bad. Just gets a bit sluggish if there's too many apps in the multi-task list. I went into the performance settings and made it attempt to keep 100mb of RAM free at all times. Doesn't really keep all 100 free, it just keeps about 40-60 free. Also Bluetooth is flakey like any other 4.2.2 rom. (But i just remembered you don't use it.) Other than Bluetooth being flakey, it's a pretty stable DD. I was thinking about updating to v22.0.1 though. Or maybe i just might go back to v18 where Bluetooth works lol.

It's not too bad. Just gets a bit sluggish if there's too many apps in the multi-task list. I went into the performance settings and made it attempt to keep 100mb of RAM free at all times. Doesn't really keep all 100 free, it just keeps about 40-60 free. Also Bluetooth is flakey like any other 4.2.2 rom. (But i just remembered you don't use it.) Other than Bluetooth being flakey, it's a pretty stable DD. I was thinking about updating to v22.0.1 though. Or maybe i just might go back to v18 where Bluetooth works lol. Also I posted in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197759
Cause people were having GPS problems and I don't have any with my setup.

No problem. This is probably going to sound a bit like a stalker, but I clicked on your name, and it went to your profile(obviously). Anyway, I saw that it said your location is Reno. Just thought it was a bit crazy, cause mine is too.

For real. When my dad had this phone, he didn't want much done to it because he couldn't have something not work. But it's mine now, and I love it.

Sounds like he would have been a tpr kind of guy lol. This was my first smartphone 2 and a half years ago and it was definitely money well spent! It's crazy that this phone can run ics and jb thanks to awesome devs of course; speaking of which i'm going to start workin on some stuff myself soon.
