Device soft brick after flashing rom

Hello all hope you will be able to help me.
Device : Nexus S I 9020
So basicly iam kinda new to whole this world of "android" former Iphone user.
last mounth i got my nexus S wich is my first android phone.
As soon as i got it i started to read guids and etc.
Root the device and ofc the nexy step was trying Rom`s.
but then a problem , every time i try to flash a rom i get status 7 error.
tryed every possible combination of restore / wipe etc...
nothing helped , so i came back to the stock one (backup i made before i started)
after a while i discovered the app Rom mananger , wich install rom update recovery etc...
so i updated my recovery and installed CM7 using it.
used it for a while and went back to the stock.
after cople of days tryed to install MIUI using rom manger every thing went clear and after the intall device reboot it self and then stuck on the Google logo with the lock in the botom of the screen.
and nothing helped since then restore , factory reset/restore / wipe`s etc.
as last resort i tryed Odin and it worked like a charm got my device back and runing.
today i tryed to install a new rom AOASP(i think , or some thing like that) in the first time from the recovery (several times) with every possible wipe.
all the time status 7 error , then went to rom mananger and again same thing.
stuck on the google logo.
now iam gonna use Odin again hope it will work this time too.
Any idea how to resolve it , or why this is happen ?
and how can i resolve the status 7 error and what does it mean ?
Thank you all.
(sorry for this been so long , wanted to give as much details as possible)

doesnt seem to be the same problem like i had.
Any way at this point i was able to restore my phone using Odin , and then restore it into my stock backup (including all my data and etc...)
but the problem remain the same.
cant install any rom (status 7 error).
and when i try to install any rom using Rom mananger iam stuck on the google logo after the reboot.
so what can i do ?
Problem solved by using Odin ro restore it and after that flash Nanbackup and finally updating the CWM recovery.
If any one get the problem try this
Btw SuperAOSP is GREAT !!!!

UI stopped working, and phone seems useless

I purchased Galaxy s4 i9505 (16GB) some months ago and the first day when i opened it for the first time, it asked me for system update
( from stock i think it had jellybean , and it went to lolipop 5.0.1 instantly )
i was waiting about 30 minutes or more, but finnaly my new phone opened with latest firmware.
the first problems arrived just 5 minutes laters, when i realized that the clock app was not working.
i didnt care about it, since i downloaded another one from play store to fix this issue.
my problem was that i had extremely bad battery life and in general the phone was lagging as hell.
so finall after all this months today i thought of rooting my device in first palce, to clean up somehow unused apps and install another ones.
i did it succesfully following this guide -> ops i cant post links but you can search on youtube for -> How to root Galaxy S4 (I9500/I9505) running Lollipop 5.0.1
it worked good but after 2-3 restarts, it started saying that UI had stopped working, and there are no taskbars etc ..
i tried wipe cache partition but no luck.
any idea?
Perform a factory reset.

Nexus 4 - Bootloop Following Contact With Water? Or recent update?

Bootloop following contact with water? Or recent update?
Hello,
Here is my story : end of last wwek, my phone fall in a small amount of water (1cm) on the top (jack side). I wiped it very fast and use it for the next 30 min, everything is good. and then i let it 2 hours (charging or not i don't remember, i don't know if it can matter). After that i find it bootlooping was there an update, end of last week? Anyway i let it in that state at least 30 min and even more and then tried to restart it not better. I also tried a wipe cache and after that a factory reset, nothing...
Yersterday back to home, i tried to flash the 5.0.1 factory image ( didn't want to take the 5.1, because i feared a possible bad update on the image maybe) nothing better, even worst because after after some time of bootlooping, i've got the red light flashing :/
Same goes for the 4.4 flash but small miracle, it's working 4.2.2... During all those tries, i did some oem lock and unlock before and after each flash.
So my phone is working with the first version of android available, which is not the best.... I also tried the OTA update to the 4.3 and i also got stuck to a bootloop
So after that long story (sorry), I defer to your expertise because i don't know what else to do.
Please help :/
I just installed the lastest version of cyanogen and it's working well...
Still no idea whats happening there?
Seems to be a real big question i ask you there, but i continue my thinking on my side.
I dont like the idea, but it light be a hardware problem... Maybe a failing memory slot, or an unused component until then.
So it brings me 2 questions : how and where could i find logs after a failed update?
And how could i efficiently test my hardware CPU, RAM, as we can do on a computer?
Thanks in advance, any idea, help, joke are welcome

please help 3 RMA's and counting

hello i just got my 6p back from RMA today for the 3rd time , battery would not go 2 hours and microphone wouldn't work for calls, 1st 2 RMA they send me the phone back exactly as i sent it with glass screen protector still on ,they did nothing but update from MM to N to N 7.1 and then i have more issues than before where it shuts down with 20 30% remaining
i got it back today ,it was on 7.1.2 ,i tried to enter my google account , phone boots but play store will not install apps and phone hangs for 4 hours at installing apps , i shut it down but when i reboot it it says "system update in progress"
it was already on 7.1.2 , so what update?once before i sent it back for RMA and they told me don't worry that we updated it to 7.1 but it is a different version than normal OTA 7.1 that does not have the bootloop /battery issues
so is this phone trying to update to normal 7.1.2 and not the custom huawei 7.1.2 version? is it going to overwrite the different 7.1.2 version? is there any way to stop it from updating ?
why would it update i didn't select update i just shut it down after signign into my google account it singed in i got a notification on my other devices but it would not install my apps and froze at installing apps
i would like to boot it without updating is it too late? and is it bad to install the update? won't it overwrite fixed version? i take it nobody ever got to the bottom of the bootloop of death issue yet ?
long story short, got RMA phone back ,phone froze on setup , i shut it down ,then it prompted for a system update , but the phone was already on 7.1.2, i checked it before i shut it down
i want to know if this is because huawei installed a modified version of 7.1.2 and this is trying to overwrite it
i did not go to OTA i did not get any prompts for update so i do not know why i get installing update when i power on now, but i do not think it is a good idea so can i cancel this update or is it too late?
the last time i RMA'd my phone before this time they updated it to 7.1.1 and i asked about the boot loop issues with 7.1 and they told me not to worry that it reads 7.1.1 but that it is really a modified version of 7.0
so now i assume that this is a modified version of 7.1.2 that they installed on it when they sent it back and that the phone is somehow trying to update to the normal version for some reason
