I think it's a great idea!! Samsung has SDX, and a lot of other manufacturers have separate websites, as well. Since SE is becoming a larger manufacturer with the wide-open dev support they now have I think this would be an excellent idea. Just make it for all SE android devices and keep it free from full forums, with the exception of support, maybe....or you could link to the dev's threads here for support.

I want to update my nexus s to 2.3.4

I'm currently on stock 2.3.3, build number GRI40, baseband I9020XXB1. Rooted and unlocked bootloader.

My phone keeps trying to update ota - 12mb file but the update fails and gets stuck on a triangle with exclamation mark in it. I've tried booting into clockworkmod recovery and apply update from SD card but still it fails.

Could somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thanks

if you want to update to 2.3.4 via OTA,you have to run stock rom,otherwise update will be fail

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamwalsh:
Hi i got my samsung i9000 yesterday and immediatly flashed it to the cm7 mod. The battery seemed to die very quick today got about 5 hours music out of it. Also when i free memory the maximum i get is 150mb. Surely that cant be right when it has 512. Is something wrong or does that seem normal?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
There is no way to estimate if your battery usage is normal, not enough information. However 150MB free is pretty typical of all Galaxy S ROMs. CM7 actually tends to have a bit more free memory then most. You need to remember most of the memory of your phone is busy being...y'know..a phone.

I'm very new to rooting, I've looked at many of the Root processes and I've been a lurker for about 4 months. and i've about decided to use Bubby's for the sake of easy rooting process.

I do have a couple of questions that I cannot seem to find solid answers on.

1) If I root using bubby's method, the rom that gets installed, is that still an inspire rom? or is it a Gingerbread rom? If it is not a gingerbread rom is there one that people would suggest that I use?

2) if AT&T decides to put out the Gingerbread rom at a later date (est this summer) can I install it and maintain my root or will it remove the root? and what is the risk of upgrading?

The two major reasons that I want to root is I want to be able to use the amazon appstore, and I want to rid myself of the bloat ware. From what I've read Gingerbread is a significant improvement and I'd like to go to that version if possible.

I've previously owned an iPhone and was very disappointed even with the device jailbroken. I'm used to that process and it's really simple and no issue. This one is clearly more complex. But I'd like to limit my downtime on my device.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pollux1151:
if you root the phone, your rom will still the same old ATT rom but "unlocked". you will have to flash a GB rom to get GB. There are plenty of GB roms already here in the DEV section.

if ATT upgrades to GB, dont worry, people here will provide many upgraded rooted versions of GB for you to download.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Buchez:
If/when you do root, I would recommend using LeeDroid's GB rom. Very stable, fast, and excellent battery life, with none of the bloat ware.

Whatever ROM you chose, make sure you read the instructions for flashing. Any questions, just post. Most people are more then willing to help.:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] zole2112:
I used Bubby's, it was pretty easy and worked fine. Here is a How To in case you don't have one...http://androidforums.com/inspire-4g-all-things-root/310442-how-root-official-guide.html

Good luck!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Obievil:
Thanks!

Now I just need to back up my photos/data. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] maestroburbuja:
Good luck :)

I also rooted using Bubby's method, and after two weeks or so with the (rooted) stock ROM I decided to upgrade to Gingerbread with the Android Revolution ROM. It runs smoothly, battery life isn't perfect but it's fine.

If you're going to flash ROMs with custom radios, I recommend you read this:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P7M8:
I rooted my T-Bolt using the Mac method described on Android Central Forums. I've been running the stock ROM and Kernel. I'm only going to do one custom install of a ROM and Kernel. I really hate having to keep up with the latest and greatest. Having to wipe every time and re-install everything.

I'd like recommendations on what ROM and Kernel to install and how to do it. I am tech savvy but have not been keeping up with what's going on in the Android rooting world. I am starting a new career next week and would like to get my T-Bolt set up now and forget about it.

I originally rooted my D1 so I could wireless tether but service was horrible. If I can still take advantage of wireless tether without any repercussions from VZW I'll stay rooted and do that. The only benefit I'm getting right now being rooted is Set CPU to help with my battery life.

So, I'd appreciate any help you guys can give me on this.

Thanks!

Can I let the OTA update over root and just not worry about it anymore?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broadwayblues:
Do not OTA over root! It is all over the forums and will mess up your phone if you do that.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13606062&postcount=2557

To install the update while rooted, follow that link. He also installing BAMF remix 1.6.3 which is the ROM that I am running. It is also my first ROM, and I picked it because it is a stable ROM, and I have yet to get a reboot after 4 days of using it.

The guys in that forum are really good about answering questions, but most of my noob questions were answered already. Don't forget that you can search inside a thread--that one is over 300 pages long.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broadwayblues:
Sorry, I forgot the Kernal: I am using this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1021404 It is also really stable and also sports a really good battery life, while keeping the phone snappy. Amazing work!

Do you have Titanium Backup and ROM manager? I believe that ROM manager also install ClockWork Mod Recovery, which you are going to need.

I would get the paid version of Titanium, and do a batch backup of your apps and system data so you don't lose all of your app data when you install the new radio and ROM.

Dreamkilla's Theme

and Android Creative Syndicate

brings H. R. Giger to the Nexus S 4G 2.3.4​

​

There are quite a few firsts here so let me lay it all out for you. First and foremost, this theme is the product of a new collaboration between Dreamsforgotten and zhKilla, from ACS. DreamKilla themes isn't over here, this is merely the first in a line of themes to change the theme game up! Be looking forward to our releases!

Now, what is H. R. Giger. Hans Rudolf "Ruedi" Giger happens to be a hero of mine since I was a child. He is a artist, sculpturer, and dreamer. Giger started off airbrusing dreamscapes and morbid scenes then later moved on to using paints and sculpting bringing his work together in 3d. His design featured in a book he presented in the 70's named Necronomicon spearheaded his fame and let to his creation of the first film Alien directed by Ridley Scott. This of course led to a future of many alien movies and branched off to the alien vs. predator series as well earning him an oscar. Ever since I started theming cell phones (back in the blackberry/LG VU days on At&t) I have been dying to see his work presented as a full on theme. Now I give you my wish:

Did you make you own theme temp or did you borrow one. i posted one that work through rom manager only. for some reason when i go to recovery through the bootloader nothing i flash will work. im more or less wondering about your edify script problem. what was the issue maybe thats my prob?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
I made it borrow mine, take my zip from this theme, take the framework and apps from mikeyinids deodex zip and use that. By the way theme updated notice the a for alpha is gone system apps now included. Phone.apk is themed but there is more to it coming real soon. Also soon I'm going to get the transparent mms in there. Flash right over, enjoy!

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dazednconfused:
Sweet, definitely looking forward to it. You have taken this and made it even better and you keep on going with your awesomeness. The status bar looks so much better with the blue signal to match the rest. Thanks again for all of your hard work that you been putting in to make these phones so much better. You probably are the one that saved me from taking my Nexus back for something else. I was really getting tired of all the green in the status bar and you took care of that problem for me.

Do you think when they start kicking out some roms for the NS4G that it will go a little smoother than the Epic? Don't get me wrong, there are some pretty dam good roms for the Epic, but I was thinking more in the line of CyanogenMod - Do you think that might go a little smoother for this phone? I just figured you know alot more about things like that than I do.

Thanks again for the awesome theme, and I'll be looking forward to your next update.

Yo Dreams - what do you think it would take to get the Status bar toggles up there? (wifi, gps, 4G (maybe), etc). I'm pretty sure that's all in the SystemUI.apk -- I was gonna decompile it and take a look, but wanted to see if u already had something in the works.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
all apologies guys. I've compiled a new version of the theme fixing some major errors (to me) and add some features. Basically the text on the clear all button on status bar is white, the background is transparent alien now. For some reason I placed the wrong buttons in the phone they are supposed to be green round buttons but they are sharp red ones. I'm going to upload the new theme here in a minute, note the thread and OP and update links. Screenshots will be included and updated on the OP.
