I know there have been plenty of battery threads but I wanted to so what you guys thought about this?

Android Central did a review on the Nexus S 4G and under the battery test they showed the battery stats. Their battery lasted over 1 day, 9 hours with moderate use. When I look at the usage stats, It shows display at 54% and and cell standby at 11%. I understand if they were using the phone non stop that most of the juice was being used by the display, but are SAMOLED displays that great on battery that you could use it that much and get this much out of a stock battery?? Or is this more proof that our battery drivers simply need a recoding? They did have their 4G activated so you would think like in our case, the 4G chip would cause higher cell standby use.......

So While trying out a new ROM i thought it was missing something. A flashlight app. The best one i can think of would be the torch from CM7 & after doing some looking around i noticed some other people were thinking the same thing so to make things easier i thought id extract it and post it.

DOWNLOAD BELOW!!!
[Android General] Truckin'Ain't4Sissies:
Thank you!
[Android General] stumpyz9:
No problem
[Android General] rajmix:

[Android General] Cj719:
will this work on a sense rom?
[Android General] eicodi:
Thank you!!
[Android General] rozzco:
or my Atrix. Is there an app equivalent on the market? I really like the adjustable strobe feature.
[Android General] razor2006:
FCs on Gingersense leak. I'd assume it will probably do so on all Sense ROMs. Disappointing, high brightness torch > htc flashlight app x10.
[Android General] saar73:
try DroidLight from the market. works great on my Atrix
[Android General] stumpyz9:
It only works on some sense roms. If you are having trouble getting it to work or are getting force closes I recomend getting the Nexus Torch app off the market, I'm pretty sure u need root access for it though. Anyways thanks to all of u for trying it.
[Android General] rwells813:
THanks for this by the way, although I wasn't able to install this particular apk, I found another. Appreciate ya
[Android General] stumpyz9:
ive only gotten it to work on stock kernels, so sorry to the sense and blur users who wanted to use it.
[Android General] Amin.HVS:
FC on xperia sp with 4.1.2 ...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kboater:
So i have the Vibrant (3g) right now. I have had several problems and am on my second vibrant right now.

anyway, im not under contact and have had tmobile for years. so Im thinking about trying to have them give me another phone.

So ive got a few questions about the Galaxy S 4g compared to the vibrant. I realize the SGS 4g is basically a vibrant with FFC and 4g radio

1. does the Sgs 4g suffer from the GPS problems that most Vibrant users have faced?

2. how is development here for the sgs 4g compared to the vibrant? are our Vibrant roms and kernels compatible with the sgs 4g?

3. if the vibrant roms and kernels are not compatible, how is the development scene? choice of custom roms? OC kernels? ect...?

4. do you guys have Voodoo to try to correct the lag issues with the RFS file system

EDIT: after looking some more, its looks like your development scene is pretty quiet...? so compared to the original vibrant, would you guys say not to switch to this phone?

any other info I should know?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rickyc19:
1. Haven't encountered any

2. Vibrant Roms not compatible with SGS 4G

3. Not many custom Roms yet but we are making progress

4. There is Voodoo and it does improve performance and battery life, there wasn't really any lag even without it

Its a great phone, hope this helps :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
we have voodoo sound, have not seen the lagfix yet. We recently got the Bali kernel that was released for the vibrant. The bali kernel has been a great improvement for our device. little to no lag, LONGER battery life and no issues thus far.

all the other questions, ricky already touched on.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kboater:
cool. thanks guys.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] danstheman7:
-I've encountered GPS Problems, as well as quite a few other members. It's a general Galaxy S problem.

-Development for this phone is VERY limited, but the few devs we do have are pretty dedicated. I'm pretty satisfied, but coming from the vibrant you may be disappointed.

-Vibrant ROMs/kernels are NOT compatible, sadly. Many have tried using them...and well....unless you like carrying around a brick for a phone, they're not compatible.

-There's one OC kernel. I don't know much about it, but looking in the android development section you should find some info.

-Voodoo did in fact come out for GS4G a few days ago i believe.

Good luck.

Oh hell, that's funny. But I know the feeling. This is awesome, going to try it out. Thanks a million.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
Only thing ive noticed is the roaming indicator off in the notification area...Everything seems to work so far.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] JewishMatt:

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
we should be ok to flash a kernel right?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
i got this error when using the old clockworkmod recovery. once i updated to 3.1.0.1 i haven't seen this error. perhaps that will work for you also?

yea, netarchy's kernel *should* work!

Becareful when clicking the music widget when it asks you what music player you open it with if you have downloaded the Music Beta player. DON"T CHOOSE IT.. Choose the regular (blue speaker icon) one instead. Or you'll get force closes.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] texas83:
Got the new recovery flashed via ADB, had a memory blank for a second. Only question left is which version do I flash?

Do I use zip available at the "Official NS4G CM7 Nightly" or do I use the zip provided in the download link called "cyanogen_crespo4g-ota-eng.joeykrim-final.zip"? THANKS!!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] housry23:
Thank You! I flashed the nightly and status bar didn't work. I wish I would have saw this yesterday. I will be flashing this after work today!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
I'd use the final. Read the notes next to each.

. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] texas83:
GOT IT! Will report back with feedback once I've played with it for a day or so!

Side question: What the hell does that "apply update.zip" to sd card do in CWM? I've always wondered but could not find the answer anywhere. Thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
U probably wont use the update.zip option. Afaik, update.zips are signed, all other zips you're flashing are not. Addl info on that google website. :)

. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Take a zip u flash the most, rename it update.zip. there u go. I use it for my wipe all zip.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
sorry, i was too dead after a long week at work to fix it using nemith's method. nemith found the missing commits for those, they should be in the next nightly .. maybe nightly 2 ? if not, nightly 3 should have them ;)

i thought the one tonight would have it? can you give a link to the download?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] luckylui:
Nightly 2 does have it :)

And the link is on the official nightly thread.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
can anyone mirror it, the download is way too slow.

I was going to say -mine worked fine
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] raiderep:
Wow, this is what I've been missing since I had a hero for a short time to replace my moment while waiting for the epic to come out. Well worth the wait! Thank you for this!

/falls back to sleep hoping that when he awakes it's not all been a dream...

edit: only issue for me so far is the 4g toggle doesn't work but I can deal with that...thanx again for the efforts ;-)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Mandro1d:
So I'm kinda new to these new nightly cm7 roms and I had some ?'s. From my understanding there is an update to this every right, and therefore I would need to flash a new updated rom every night, but won't that wipe my phone every time?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] styckx:
You don't have to and if a novice you shouldn't flash every single one. (Or any)

Nightlies are basically a compiled version of the code in its current state as it sits. Nightly 3 could work fine, while nightly 4 could have broken wifi. It is done automatically. It is really a work in progress snapshot. If unsure, just wait for a stable release as it isn't something you have to install every day. Its more for testing and tinkers.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] texas83:
12 hours in this is looking good! I am on the 5/19 CM7 version!

Only bugs I've noticed is that the 4g toggle doesn't work, but no biggie!

reception is still poor, though I suspect this has nothing to do with the ROM.

thanks for your hard work guys!!!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] siiooo:
I am having a problem with my wifi it just says error. anyone else have this problem. I just loaded the newest version of everything.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Nice to see you here raiderep!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
just had my first set of force closes on nightly 2. both launcherpro & settings.apk crashed and i had to do a battery pull. if it happens again ill have to flash a different rom for the time being.

im running netarch kernel as well.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] styckx:
Launcherpro and the NS4G in general don't mesh well, even on stock.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Greefus:
Yeah I was a launcher pro guy but I like ADW much better on NS4G.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
never had an issue till tonight.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] raiderep:
I see you were here waiting for stragglers like me ;-)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] styckx:
Same here.. Once you figure the in's and out's of ADW it's superior to launcherpro.. Only thing LauncherPro has that ADW lacks is those awesome widgets in the paid version.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
does anybody have a link to the stock cm7 kernel i can flash for the 4g?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dalvarez7:
I am too a big launcher pro fan, but willing to look into ADW. What things in your opinion that make it better? perhaps I will make the switch too.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
launcher pro has been good to me and i bought the app. i got rid of adw because of high battery drain on my evo. i see no proof that launcherpro doesn't work right on the nexus s.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] luckylui:
I've gone from adw to LP to Zeam launcher and that's where im at :)

Evo 4G --> Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Paleryder:
Hmm iv'e been running LP since I got the NS and never had 1 problem, since ADW is baked in i will try it though
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
Just flashed 3 and it didn't have this... just fyi.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] stillblood:
I was a big LP user. But adw (paid) is so much smother for both my evo, and now NS4G.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] brokentoaster24:

when waking my phone up, it takes like 20-30 seconds for it to pick wifi up, Ive just gotten use to it. Iprefer netarchy kernls over stock, but the stock ones find wifi as soon as the phone wakes...

My phone will get 3300 on this kernel, legit :) This is my second nexus and the first would have never got that high in quads. I dont think i ever even hit 3000 with it.

EPST functions portable to Evo?

Joey,

Just switched from the Evo4G to the NS4G and not having the EPST functions was always a PITA (e.g., update PRL etc) on CM7 for the Evo. Wondering if this EPST functionality would work on the Evo or if it had been tried? Would be a major improvement to CM7 for that phone if this could cross pollinate!

BTW, if anyone wants their MSL code, its easy to find once routed:

Just launch terminal, type getprop and look for the line that says "[ril.MSL]: [xxxxxx]" -- that's your MSL. Could also do it with adb shell getprop from your computer. Useful if you wanted to muck around with EPST functions.

Thanks for all your hard work, I love XDA!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Greefus:
What do I need to wipe if any going from full 3 to full 4?

Full 3 is working nice here.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] luckylui:
Just cache and dalvik.

Evo 4G --> Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Greefus:
Sweet. I just did wipe cash and flashed the new zip and everything is the same.

Auto rotate was broken for me on full 3 but working nice for me on full 4. Everything else was 100% stable as far as I could tell.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
Been using launcherpro since day one... no issues to at all.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Greefus:
Is there a way to alter the build.prop for these rom or something so if I install MLB At Bat, the app thinks it's a GSM Nexus S? The app won't allow streaming video with the NS4G as it's not an officially compatible device. I heard of people doing that to get Netflix to work.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] warhell200:
Nexus s 4g and cm7 could be kinda scary lol good thing I backed up everything lol
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] DarkManX4lf:
Yep same here.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] styckx:
I gave launcherpro a try again.. Still has one bug on this phone but it otherwise runs fine.. Maybe it was the previous ROM I was using?

*shrug*
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
What kind of battery life is everyone getting? I've tried the stock battery and Netarchy Nexus both kinds and my battery life is terrible. Im starting to wonder if maybe I just have a bad battery. I'll charge the battery to full and 30 minutes later its down to about 75%.

Why open your mouth?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nmoreman:
Can you point me to the release? I have never used cm7, new with Nexus s4g, came from Epic. Unlocked and rooted, but want to be sure whatever I start flashing is stable, I don't have time to experiment and maintain . . . when I go to cm site, I don't know where to start on download.

Check out the Official CM7 Nightly discussion thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1089514

First post is a link to the downloads and changelog. Read through the thread to determine which nightly might work best for you. There is no RC yet for Crespo4G so you will have to flash a (possibly unstable) nightly if you want CM7.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Paleryder:
CM#19 is stable as they all pretty much are they are a work in progress always getting better they are what most great roms are based off of I HIGHLY recommend CM7, all I have been using since my Epic.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mrmylanman:
Not sure why but my phone didn't want to connect to 3G. Reception is spotty out here so maybe that's why. Saw the "Roaming Indicator Off" in the notification bar as well.

ROM seems to work smooth... a little choppy at times, although it's still downloading my apps so I can't fault it yet. A lot of them are failing installation which is a pain.

Tomorrow I'll play with it more, glad to see CM7 love though!

Ok i flashed this rom its working great, only one problem on my lock screen where it normally says sprint it now says Roaming indicator off. Is there a way to fix that.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
as long as you're sure you're using a crespo4g device, you can remove this line from the updater-script text file inside the .zip. it should flash the .zip file fine w/o that line :)

the line is there to double check the .zip is being flashed to the correct device.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] derekwilkinson:
i was about to try that, thanks. wish me luck :)
