[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creativedevil:
I am in canada, just bought NS finally, that too from Koodo, and it is an Unlocked Rogers/AT&T/Bell/Telus/Fido compatible version. Not to mention it will work with any other bands in the world except the situation Wind/Mobilicity have.

Their phone system is not backwards compatible, they came out in the market just about 2 years ago, they started off with 3G/3.5G straight where Rogers initially started with Standard, moved on to Edge/2G/2.5G and upgraded themselves to 3G and eventually 3.5G, same goes for Telus/Bell/Fido.

If you purchase any of Wind/Mobilicity phone, they will be compatible with any other careers in the world, but you will not get 3G if tried on UMTS. Their phones will only work on the AWS 3G frequency. Which in case means if you bought wind/mobilicity compatible phone, you will get 2G/Edge on Rogers.

Other way around - Koodo phone with Wind/Mobilicity SIM - will give you Wind/Mobilicity Away network only, means it is useless for you. The only phone in canadian market works with Rogers and Wind 3G frequency is Nokia N8 which is a Pentaband phone. Nexus S on the other hand is a Quadband phone, and is made specifically for the career, thats why we have 3/4 different versions, AWS, UMTS, 4G to work with Sprint in US and i guess there is one other model for India and China as well.

All the Nexus S variants come unlocked, outright or on contract, as its a Google's own baby and they don't lock it except the bootloader.

I bought mine with Koodo from Future Shop as it is listed as not an outright sale on Koodo's website, but FS and BBY do sell them outright. It is unlocked out of the box, just pop your SIM in and you are good to go assuming you are going to go with Rogers/Bell/Telus/Koodo/Fido.

My two cents, go with Wind, they offer you wind tab, pay 350 + tax and use the phone to pay the rest of the money with wind tab and you are set if you really want Wind compatible phone.

I had the same problem and dilemma like you as I had a Desire Z with Bell and wanted to use it on Wind, ended up trading it with G2 from T-Mobile and used Wind mobile 3G network and Rogers 2G/Edge network up until now(I am with Rogers and have got a better deal with them for data, so no need to carry two phones on me anymore :-))

Hope this helps.

I have noticed that while charging my phone, the screen will randomly turn on sometimes, timeout then turn off.

The only other time I have this issue is when I am using Navigation. If I turn off the screen, it will almost immediately turn back on.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vince556:
This has happened to me too. It is always when I am charging the phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
It's because the radio is looking for and locking onto new towers. You can't do anything about it, other than turn Mobile off when charging. It's not just an Incredible thing, almost every phone and every phone OS does this.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbrauer:
On my G-Tablet when I try to upgrade to any ROM above Vegan 5.11 I lose my Accounts & Sync and Browser from the tablet, along with a couple of other quirks. Reinstalling GAPPS does not fix it, neither does TI Backup.

I have been able to flash up and have these items gone, but then flash back and they are there. Also, this did start after I flashed successfully to Brilliant Corners, and then did the full downlevel back to 3588 builds.

I have NVFlashed multiple times, I run Corwin's FORMAT.zip prior to installing new ROMs, but still have this issue.

Any thoughts??

Thanks!

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madiom:
I had a similar issue, the only I could fix it was by repartitioning the SD with clockwork, like you did when you first installed CWM. This leads me to believe that the formatting and wiping may not always take and leaves some stuff behind that messes you up.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordgodgeneral:
I think it depends on the bluetooth program your using and how its doing its routing. I've had no problems using Wireless Tether on my original Droid. Just flip it over to Bluetooth mode since the transformer can't see the ad hoc.

But I've also tried PDAnet and a couple other non root needed bluetooth tehter programs and they didn't work.

You guys need to keep in mind that the carriers have been cracking down on tethering. On my Droid X there is a built in app called Datamanager or something similar, which makes it so I cannot tether my phone. Once I froze it with Titanium, I was able to bt tether my phone to the TF.

Hi,

I'm noob that got Vibrant phone (from EBAY) that already ROOTED & ClockWorldMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo Lagfix (I don't how...)

With :

KERNEL : 2.6.32.9

BASEBAND : T959UVKB1

BUILD : BIONIX-V 1.3.1

SUPERUSER V2.3.6

SU BINARY V2.3.1-EF

VOODOO LAGFIX

In recovery I see :

apply sdcard update.zip

wipe data \ factory reset

wipe cache partition

install zip from sdcard

backup and restore

mounts and storage

advanced

voodoo

+++++Go Back+++++

I don't have any backups so I want to install ROM MANAGER from market, I read HERE that if i want to upgrade I need to go go back to stock (I'm really don't know how this version get to the phone and somehow the ROM MANAGER not there...)

Do I must go back to stock or I can download ROM MANAGER, Install it and make something like "Upgrade" - I don't know what is the voodoo lagfix and do I need to uninstall it if I want to:

1. install ROM MANAGER and preform Backup & Restore (most important how to verify my backup OK )

2. Move to Trigger 3.2

Can some guide me with simple steps about how to start (I know that I'm not starting for 0 ether in the phone and ether in my knowledge)

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Download Trigger

Install titanium backup, backup all of your apps

Move to internal, /sdcard

Reboot to red recovery

Make a backup

Wipe

Flash, instal from sd

Reboot

Wait

Reboot

Restore

Reboot
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djapatos:
this says it all

This says it all, but since you are a noob

by wipe, he means to wipe everything (data(factory reset), cache, delvik cache(thats on the advanced options)

As for the titanium backup if you dont know how to use it, just youtube it or go over the threads here

Finally when doing the flash, make sure the trigger 3.2 file is on the sd card

And NO you dont have to go back to stock
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asher_pa:
1. Do all this without using the Rom Manager?!?!?!? - If I want to install it just download & Install, no any pre-requisit ?

2. when you say Wipe - you mean to "wipe data \ factory reset" or "wipe cache partition" ?

3. Flash, instal from sd = "install zip from sdcard" ?

4. Wait = how much time

5. Restore = Restore what?

Can you direct me to step by step guide for this or input some details?

Thanks alot

Hi,

I checked your guide and even see the video and I have Q, about the "Rom Manager", I saw In your video that you Use it...

Someone told me that my current ClockWorldMod Recovery is old and I should upgrade it... (I couldn't find in the net \ this forum how to upgrade my current version...).

Someone told me:

1. download from market

2. install it with ROOT

3. click "Flash Clockwork Recovery" and boot to recovery

4. Re-install Packages - I DON'T HAVE THIS OPTION NOW

and from there like in your guide: backup,make all the Wipe, place rom on sd and choose "install zip from sd card"

1. Is it true and should work?

2. should I follow those steps (in this order)

3. should I make a backup before and after I download and "Flash Clockwork Recovery"

4. If I follow this orders should I see the "Re-install Packages" that I don't see now and should I need to use it ?

Sorry for all the questions but I want to "understand" (as much as can) what I'm doing.

Thanks Again
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Earlier I was sending you messages from my phone while waiting for an appointment... let me try again...

You have the red voodoo recovery. You do not need anything else. Ignore Rom Manager and all that, you really do not need it, because your ROM replaced this recovery with the stock one. You are good.

Just download the rom

make backups

go flash the rom

enjoy

If you have a specific question or want a better explanation, just let me know.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asher_pa:
when you say: "your ROM replaced this recovery with the stock one." do you mean that after install the new rom I need to make ROOT again? (sorry for my noob)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asher_pa:
I make all install (without SIM on the phone).

after the reboot I saw the Android and after few scondes he say to inset sim....

Do I was have to install the new rom with the SIM in it?

PLEASE HELP? (for now I don't know what to do so I'll wait the 15 min)...

ANY SUPPORT? - is it OK?

thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
1. Install the ROM with a SIM card in...or if you didn't, insert it like it asks you to.

2. ROM Manager IS clockwork recovery. It is that menu you went into to flash the rom (can be green or red depending on your kernel installed). You don't need ROM Manager because whoever had the phone before you already installed ROM Manager at some point and hence, you have the Clockwork Recovery now as you saw.

3. After you install the new ROM, the boot up will take a long time. It is setting up all the system and configuring the operating system. After it finally boots, leave your phone for 10 minutes and just don't touch it. This gives it time to do a lot of configuration stuff it needs to do when it first starts up. After the 10 minutes are up, restart it. It will now start a lot quicker (like normal) and when its up, you can use it anyway you want. Hence, some first things to do would be to restore your contacts, programs (if you backed them up, settings, etc)

3. I really recommend you read a little bit more before you do flashing like this next time because if people here are not nice and don't lead you by the nose (or if you follow a step wrong), you can **** your phone. The procedure is easy. It is fairly foolproof but it is still advised that you have basic knowledge of what you are doing.

There are a lot of sticky threads on the forums that explain what things are. I recommend you have a look.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asher_pa:
Thanks It look like everything is OK now (I read about 15 post before done this...)

Now my Phone Setting look like this:

KERNEL : 2.6.32.9

TRIGGER VERSION : 3.2- FINAL

BTW:

I'm still see "ClockWorldMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo Lagfix (ALL IN RED)"

1. Does my CWR was needed to be updated too - because its not :( ?

2. Should I update my kernel too ? - Is there any guide fort this?

Thanks.

OMG!!!!!! Just follow the instructions! It's not rocket science; geez. I know of most noobs who wouldn't even ask this many questions even AFTER the guide/tutorial/step-by-step instructions are in front of them. I give you my word that you WILL NOT brick your Vibrant just by trial and error.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I don't understand why you are so set on the CWR upgrading.... and just an FYI, the red recovery (.3) is a higher version than via Rom Manager (.2).

Be happy. Move on to something else now that YOUR PHONE IS FINE :)

Hi all,

It is the stock XWJVH (Gingerbread) internet browser modified to open more than 4 windows.

You can visit up to 16 different web site at the same time but you'll probably miss memory before.

Note:

Once you reach the 8th windows, continue to press the "new button" and it will open an extra new window even thought that the counter will not display more than 8

For those who remain in froyo,see my thread for XWJS8:

[MOD] increased Stock XWJS8 browser limit

For JVK:

[MOD] XXJVK unlimited Browser Tabs

To install :

-copy the apk to your sdcard

-Delete the old Browser.apk in /system/app

-Place the new Browser.apk in there

Note:

Don't forget to be superuser and to mount the partition as read-write :

for stock kernel :

$su

#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/system /system

#cp /sdcard/Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk

#exit

$exit

for CF-ROOT kernel, (thanks to ramad)

su

stop (phone will freeze, that's OK just move on)

busybox mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/system /system

cp /sdcard/Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk

exit

exit

adb reboot

The screen was off center or skewed. Kind of like an old CRT monitor that you had to mess with to center.

The back has some give but I'm not sure its an issue. Its wide, weight seems evenly distributed and it doesn't seem frail or weak.

I returned mine to the vendor for a replacement due to the off center screen and dead pixels. I only hope that the replacement doesn't suffer from the same issues. I should know by the middle of next week.

Only problem with saying the vast majority have some issue is this may not be true or any real indication seeing as internet community behaviour is such that people post to moan when they've got problems and less likely to scream and shout about a perfect device as they're more than happy playing with it doing other things.

I'm debating on sending mine in.

What we really need is an official announcement from Asus stating "yes, the first batch had manufacturing issues but the next batch is better. If you are experiencing XXX (IE: Light Leaks) Then please send it back for a full replacement"

I too have light leakage and my backing is lose around the bottom where the dock goes. It bubbles a bit. My dock also doesn't want to stay connected when the trackpad is in use (firmware coming i hear) so...

I know Asus responds to a few of these posts and all but a total PR about the issues would be far better than 100's of reviews stating "X Problem" and then people just overall assume the product is poorly built...which it is currently.

I do love it tho, but next one released with a keyboard at a reasonable price might find me as a buyer and Asus might find this one on the way back for a full refund.
