Hello there,
I had similar problem with Nexus S GT-I9023. However, without knowing, I suddenly happened to press power button along with volume up key after the mobile was switched of. Then, android image with options for reboot, recovery…appeared. As I was unaware of this and thought it to be some problem, I simply pulled out the battery. Now after surfing internet and coming to your site, I tried pressing power button+volume up+volume down keys as the same time for hard reset, but it does not work at all. I have come to you for your valuable suggestions and guidance.
thanking you,

Hi, usually after you are in the middle of recovery but not do anything, the system will be ok although you are turning off the smartphone. The problem maybe happen when you suddenly turn off your phone or remove the battery or power empty when recovery process happen, that is why we always suggest user to fully charge the battery before doing hard reset. Try to press Power Button + Volume Up together, then choose Recovery with Volume button to navigate, after that choose to delete or hard reset with Wipe/restore data and cache.

But this phone got this problem. can you give me solution. this phone is valuable for me. but i cannot use for the phone call. please.
Hi, basically after doing hard reset or master format, all setting will be back again to factory default. What we worry here, we assume that phone Internet data connection work normally (although the phone always restart in certain period), then maybe the APN data is not setup properly, maybe the APN setting reset to factory default that make your phone can not get data connection properly. Please try to make sure about this APN. But usually if the setting of APN wrong. You can also try to check your network phone test with special code at your Samsung Google Nexus S by press at phone dial: *#*#4636#*#* Continue choose Phone Information, make sure your setting right and phone Radio is active.
