This what my phone looks like.

UART is set on Modem

USB is set on PDA

Is that normal?

Second question. Are there any themes that I can use with this ROM?
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
They're not settings, they're modes you enter by going into 8778. You can select Modem mode under USB but it doesn't work properly.
[Nexus S General] kevlars9:
So are most of you on the latest deck rom? And if so how is it compared to the stable.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
I've been on 1.3 since it came out. Noticed no change in stability whatsoever. Hardly noticed anything different, really..
[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
I only see 1.3b where is the stable 1.3?
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
There is no stable 1.3 yet.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Deck's 1.2.1 was the stable, but its 2.3.4. No real interest in 2.3.4 roms anymore, I think.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I haven't noticed any difference between 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 ROMs other than the lack of stability. Anyone know what the improvements are?
[Nexus S General] kevlars9:
Thanks for the input. I meant that I was on the 1.2.1 stable rom. Thinking about checking out the new one.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I wouldn't bother if I were you. The new one offers no advantages in my opinion. If you're happy with 1.2.1, stick with it

[Nexus S General] mister2quick:
I can honestly say that I am experiencing better radios with the 2.3.5 and am not having any sort of stability issues at this point in time. however, I did notice that the market was actin real funkypants at the very beginning, but has seem to settled.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I just did a full wipe and re-flashed everything. So far I haven't had any other stability issues, but the radio still hasn't done anything for me. I didn't really have too many issues to begin with, but I still get a bouncing signal here and there and wifi is not improved for me at all
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Scratch that, still getting random freezes and force closes. When this isn't happening the ROM is blazing fast. Does anyone know if I can run the new radio with the 1.2.1 version of this ROM? I may have to go back to that version to get the stability back
[Nexus S General] TheBurgh:
I am pretty sure you can restore nandroid and flash new radio. The radio zip is around the forum
[Nexus S General] mister2quick:
I flashed the new radio prior to updating to the new rom and I actually had a significant loss in signal quality. And I mean, it was bad. Standing outside in an area where 3G/4G was top notch and I couldn't even get above a 2 bar level...

All of that is the reason why I upgraded to the new version.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
If I have to, I'll go with the old version and old radio. If I had any idea when/if a new update is coming from the dev, maybe I could stick with it, but I can't deal with all the problems I'm having. Gonna try a different kernel first, and if that doesn't help its back to the old version.
[Nexus S General] pitbullmommy45245:
this rom is awesome. i got my nexus about three days ago and i have tried iceandfire and the original cyangenmod and both weren't all that great. urs is quick though. i just hope the battery life is good. i'll post tomrrow about how it was while i was at work. lol. but its downloading apps like a beast!!!!!!!!!! oh and its great that its cm7 based so we can still use the theme chooser app and get all those cool themes.
[Nexus S General] mrkevo3000:
Anybody missing talk to text, I do remember it on the stock rom, but I dont see the mic on any of my phones keyboard is there something i need to download to get this operational or did deck leave it out of this rom!
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
It's in there. Try fixing permissions (& wiping dalvik)
[Nexus S General] mrkevo3000:
Tried wiping both cache and usually if I try to fix permissions through rom manger I get loading circle for like 5+ minutes, I reflashed the rom and flashed gapps in the op, but my keyboard still doesnt show the mic, I have the og keyboard, swype, & gingerbread latin one.....

Update: okay for some reason I had to go to the market and install google voice search apk, rebooted phone and magically the mic popped up on all my keyboard.....
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Yeah, the gapps doesn't have ALL google apps. The gapps I use doesn't even have gmail in it. But I may be wrong and its just an update that I have to download from the market.
[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
Update:

GPS does not work. I went on vacation this weekend the GPD did not work and when it did it gave us wrong directions. The battery life is terrible. The screen locks up every now and then and the only way to make it work is to pull the battery out. The ROM has to many little issues. I am just letting you know so you can please fix it in the new Update.

Thanks
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Well, I personally have not seen those issues. Also have not seen other people post up about those issues. Maybe try flashing again. I know I had something when I flashed last and just wiped and reset and reflashed and all was good. So maybe try somethings to fix it?
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
There were GPS issues in a few areas this weekend. I also have some random lockups and rebooted that require battery pulls. Battery life is great for me though
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
I want to say that when I update my apps I read what people are saying about the update. Google maps people have been saying that is messing up left and right. I believe they are saying what you both are saying about gps. I was just suggesting options to try.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Yeah, I've tried everything and still get some lockups and freezes. I'm trying to hold out for this version to get out of beta
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
What kernel are you using and have tried?
[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
I am using CFS 5.5 Matr1x but I can't even find that anymore. Now they have precolor ones.
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Nah there is both. Matr1x 6.0 is the newest (mathkid95). Matr1x with Decks newest is awesome IMO.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Mostly Matr1x. Never had a problem with 1.2.1 and Matr1x. Tried Netarchy(sp?) but wasn't a fan. Right now I'm wondering if my lockups and freezes are heat related, as I think it has mostly happened using navigation. I have started underclocking when using navigation to see if that helps.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Deck thanks for the update its flashing time...!!
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Installed the new version of the ROM, running with Matr1x 6 and had a freeze up using navigation within an hour. I forgot to underclock, so I was running at the full 1.2 that Matr1x is set at.
[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
Would you be kind to post the link for the download because I can't find it on that cluster F*** of a page his got going on.

Thanks
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
It's in the first post under *Latest Downloads* and above the link for gapps
[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
Thank You for that.
[Nexus S General] kingkong911:
since the new deck is based on 2.3.5, are there any issues with tethering 4g? main reason why im hesitant to upgrade :/
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
I know that with pdanet on 4g works great ;)
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Deck this update is running like a champ. I've been leaning into the ROM all day and she hasn't tripped yet, just my 4g hotspot.
[Nexus S General] dazednconfused:
Wow, thanks for the new update on the Rom. Been running all day and it's probably the best build yet. No issues at all and very fast and smooth.
[Nexus S General] bearsblack:
Yayyyy!

sent from ns4g via xda app
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
I thought every single one of you that said something about the update was friggin nuts! I looked 4 damn times and never realized it was a D and not a B still. I must be getting old. I had to move thw old one inside a folder so I dint get confused when flashing it.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Yeah I just noticed it (082111 update 1.3d)too this morning haha so don't feel bad.
[Nexus S General] bearsblack:
Did anyone else notice the yellow hue with 1.3d?

[Nexus S General] bearsblack:
And the GPS icon still doesn't disappear after turning GPS off.

And after a reboot the long press to kill app isn't working...?

Actually the long press features worked in the beginning but after trying a couple diff kernels... No dice.. :(

[Nexus S General] wrceuro:
Guys I have a little issue. Do you guys mind if you look into this for me. I went to this website from my phone N1 and I was able to hear when I click on Live button on the top right side of the page but with my NS4G I can't hear anymore. What do I have to install in order to listen.

www.wretchedradio.com

I would appreciate it very much.

Thanks
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Okay, well yesterday I decided to flash the most recent Netarchy kernel to see if maybe Matr1x was giving me problems and not the ROM. I set a profile in SetCPU to underclock to 800 when the temp hits 43°, which typically only happens when I'm using navigation. So far so good. There are sometimes some very minor stutters here and there with this kernel that I didn't get with Matr1x, but I'm going to run with it for a while and hopefully not come across any of the problems I was dealing with.
[Nexus S General] Acontreras86:
Was bln support removed in the latest rom?
[Nexus S General] grifforama:
hmm. oh dear. 1.3d just hosed my nice stable setup.

Launcher Pro keeps FC'ing...
[Nexus S General] belvedere:
I could never get LauncherPro to function correctly. I think it may have to do with having more than 3 (5 or 7) homescreen pages. Whatever it is, I've stuck to ADW which is good enough for me.

In regards to the latest update, been running for over a day now. Things seem pretty normal from as far as I can tell. Had a couple hiccups but not convinced it was entirely ROM related, especially running the Matr1x kernel that's undervolted. I think the FB app is giving me some battery drain. I have notifications turned off but just syncing contacts yet it shows up as one of the top applications eating battery, which is weird. Looked a few things up and maybe I just need to clear data/reinstall.
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Not on mine. But if I am correct the kernel is where bln is.
[Nexus S General] Acontreras86:
Yeah that's what I thought as well. This I'll try reinstalling the kernel
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
What kernel? If its matr1x 6.0 then yes cause he forgot the bln the first upload.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
Yeah sorry about that, plz reflash for bln
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
Anyone else notice that Wifi tethering is disabled in the latest release?
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Works for me. Typing this while tethered
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
That's weird. Installing the Matr1x kernel shouldn't affect tethering right?

When I enable tethering, the 3G connection just disappears.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
It should work, I have included all the files necessary
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Welcome to 2.3.5.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Um, not with custom ROMs
[Nexus S General] Acontreras86:
Okay Thanks. Got it working again . I thought it was just my own little isolated issue at first.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
Ok all I needed was a reboot I guess. Weird.
[Nexus S General] urushiol:
have you tried cleaning your GPS cache?

dial

*#*#GPSCLRX#*#*

then enter your MSL and reboot. First lock will take a while, after that, smooth as silk for me!
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Okay, been running the newest version for a couple days with the Netarchy kernel and I've had no freezes or crashes. I'm going to take off the high temp underclock profile and see if they come back. One way or the other, I'll narrow it down to temp issues with navigation, or issues with my phone and Matr1x on the latest ROM versions.

What is considered too high a battery temp?
[Nexus S General] towir022:
Where is the gtalk.zip file for downlOad? Also had there been a fix for the 4g toggle not working in the status bar ?

PS thanks to deck and everyone in this forum. I had deck on my evo and now on my nexus and I love it
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
As far as I know there is no working 4g toggle for the Nexus S on any ROM
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
There is now. It's an app called Nexus 4G Toggle. 99 cents in the Market.
[Nexus S General] 1970mueller:
It work great, is cm falling behind lol? Love kushs rom
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Was not aware of that. Thanks for the uupdate.
[Nexus S General] nbutala:
Requests

I am enjoying the ROM very much, but two minor improvements would be very welcome. I was wondering if it would be possible to enable an option to only text message mobile numbers in the call log rather than also being able to text home numbers. This is only a minor inconvenience, but I do remember being able to do this on CM7. Maybe I just can't find this feature in settings, in which case I'd appreciate it if somone directed me to it. Secondly, I greatly prefer the 4 tab lockscreen. I was hoping this could be baked into future iterations of your rom. Just my 2 cents. Thanks for the great rom!
[Nexus S General] towir022:
Does anyone know off there is a way to wifi tether with 4g speeds ?
[Nexus S General] grifforama:
Running 1.3d with matr1x 6 and this thing is beautiful.
[Nexus S General] dblkspecial:
Is anyone else having issues with downloading mms? Mine wont.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
Well, going on a day and a half and no freezes or revolts with the netarchy kernel. Apparently my phone just doesn't like the Matr1x kernels with this ROM anymore. Its a shame too, because I find Matr1x to be slightly smoother.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
Doesn't like Matr1x? :(

Try raising voltages by 5-10 or use v5.5 haha
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I love Matr1x, but had the problem with 5.5 and 6. It started with the first 2.3.5 beta for this ROM, and I originally thought it was an issue with the ROM until I tried Netarchy. If you look back in my posts in this thread I explain it. Maybe I'll try again and up the voltages.

On a side note, since I didn't get an answer from anyone earlier, what temps are dangerous? A lot of my freezes were happening when I was using Navigation and the phone was getting warm. With Netarchy I put in a profile to underclock at 43°, thinking the heat may have been my problem, but after taking the profile off, still no problems.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
I normally don't recommend profiles, but if you need to go ahead ;)

Lemme know!
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I'll try upping the voltage first. What temp would you recommend setting the profile at?
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
Oh man I have no idea, I've never used profiles at all...

Maybe 45?
[Nexus S General] lilizblack:
problems with 3g

I dont know if it was reported (Sorry for the lack of reading 95 pages) but when i flashed this rom I started to have 3g signal problems. I tried flashing different radios and nothing. I called sprint they give me few instructions and the rom (they didnt know it was custom rooted) ended up deactivating my phone and wasnt able to activate after a full wipe on clockworkmod. ( it seems some internal setting or such werent working correctly) In fact the rom froze in the middle of manual activation sprint was instructing me.

I restore to a backup (of this rom) and the phone became available (activated in other words) but the 3g still didnt work. SO i wiped and installed ACS stock deodex 2.3.5 and the 3g came back.

It was weird that the programming of sprint didnt work on this build from source. I mean four days ago i had my evo 4g with Synergy Rom on it (htc sence 3.0) and all the sprint settings worked perfectly. (yes because when the activated my evo they didnt activated the 3g for some reasons)

The possibility of the phone being deactivated here could be possible while flashing roms. its not the first time for me.

So im just passing by letting you know of the issue. I was really looking forward to using this rom T_T. If any update ill retry it.
[Nexus S General] jeffreynothing43:
Does anyone know what the Video APK is called in this ROM? I want to remove it and update it with the current one for 2.3.5.

EDIT: NM...found it. The old Music APK is attached to the old videos APK. Delete Music, it deletes the Video.
[Nexus S General] DeCourseyyy:
Just flashed this with a Netarchy Kernel, underclocked it to 800MHz, and still got a 2200 on quadrant. #swag
[Nexus S General] mevensen:
What would you suggest to adjust voltage? I tried to keep SetCPU off because the ROM had its own settings control. But if I can get more stable with voltage increases, I will try.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
Maybe up 5-10
[Nexus S General] Igotsanevo4g:
Gapps link no workie. Ill use CM7 apps instead :p
[Nexus S General] Master Ramy:
To Rom Dev: plz post pictures? My dilemma is I was on stock Tom and kernel with great speed and pretty great battery life, switched to matr1x kernel and was only. Getting 1600 in quad, up from 1400 but it was overclocked1.4 so should've gotten more. It also froze. So I reflashed And leaving it on default settings, still low quads and under amazing battery. I love the stock nexus look, so what's ur ron look like? Stock? What kernel is it built with? Hows battery vs performance, I news both atleaat as good as stock, what quad scores u getting? Ty place reply asap also for tether issue peeps are having, flash the tetherfix zip!
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I don't really understand half of what you said, but this ROM looks just pike stock with a few perks added in. There is no problem tethering with this ROM. Very fast, great battery life. If you care about quadrant scores, I just ran one without killing anything OC'ed 1.2 smartass governor with Netarchy kernel and got just under 3300. Matr1x kernel gives you slightly better quadrants scores.
[Nexus S General] Master Ramy:
Haha sorry, im having a tough time getting used to a touch keyboard, i had a QWERTY on my last phone :) i was saying that basically ive had a bad time with roms and kernels so far, and have stuck with the stock rom cause i love how it looks and feels. i wanted a kernel or rom/kernel combo, that would be able to OC and have extra tweaks (such as notification widgets) while giving me better battery life and better performance than stock. but battery life and performance on stock were pretty decent, so i was saying i need battery life atleast as good as stock, and performance atleast as good as stock.

So despite not understanding me, it seems you basically answered my question pretty well :) would u recommend Netarchy or Matr1x kernel if i was to use this rom? also, when u say great battery life, how many hours with moderate to heavy use? on matrix i watched a few music videos, maybe 5 or so, on the youtube app, and went down about 10% by the time i was done...i attributed that to being OCed the whole time i was watching them, but whatever :) finally, would i need to adjust voltage, adjust anything in setcpu, or any such thing, to attain the performance your speaking of?

and final sum-it-all-up question: so youd recommend i switch to this rom and kernel(whichever kernel u chose to be better in earlier question) instead of reverting back to full rooted stock?

Thanks so much, i appreciate it :)

~ Ramy
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
What did you have it clocked up to? 1.44? Ofcourse that will use more battery. Think of this stock runs at 1.0 with x volts. Matr1x runs 1.0 at less volts and so on. I think 1.2 is close to what stock volts 1.0 at.

Now decks is based off cyan, so it looks like both cyan and stock with the extras your looking for. With this rom at 1.2 matr1x kernel with heavy use (4hrs screen time) I can get 12 plus hours. With moderate use running at 1.0 I get almost 24hrs. If I watch a movies from netflix it drops maybe %15.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I recommend this ROM and Matr1x. Matr1x is set at 1.2 and undervolted out of the box. Just flash it and leave it alone in my opinion. Performance is much better than stock. Battery life is better. Personally, I don't put too much stock in other peoples battery life. Everyone uses their phone differently. The other guy that responded to you said 12 hours heavy use with 4 hours screen time. I'll tell you right now that my idea of heavy use and his are different, because heavy use to me will not last that long. Best thing to do is just try it. My battery life increased when I switched to this combo. Personally I don't worry about battery life too much. Samsung batteries for the NS4G are on Amazon brand new for $10. I've got a few extras so I don't need to worry
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Your right 4 hours is not alot of time. Peoples idea of useage is different. Through a normal work day (8hrs) I have say an hour of web, 30 or so minutes of xda, maybe 30-60 phone calls, around 100 or so texts and emails, plus atleast 2 hours of pandora. So pandora does not really add screen time and phone calls either. So usually after work there is about 30% or so left. I would say that's decent usage time. I know for a fact that if you have your screen on constant for x hrs you battery will be shot quick. That is my idea of heavy usage.
[Nexus S General] crzycrkr:
I just meant there's more to it also. Syncing, multi-tasking, etc. 4 hours of video won't do nearly as much to the battery as 4 hoursebofbhopping back and forth between tapatalk, Facebook, and internet. This ROM has good battery life. I'm just saying asking other people isn't going to give you any accurate idea of it because everyone has different tendencies with their phones
[Nexus S General] Waza_Be:
This one is a good battery life:

http://twitter.com/#!/supercurio/status/104230362804273152

I tried a loot of kernel, ROM, Radio, etc.. and couldn't find something that drain only 1% a night or allow to use 10 hours of GPS with myTracks.

My old HTC Hero dis this, and I don't understand how people can say we have a good battery life!

Don't tell me that Nexus S has a bigger screen and take more juice, the Galaxy S in the above tweet and my Hero during the night have screen off!
[Nexus S General] mister2quick:
Anyone having issues with sms not being split into multiple messages? I reach the 160 character mark and it won't let me add anymore.

[Nexus S General] flatrhino:
Been running for a couple days now and greatly prefer it to CM7. GAP17 was good but like most say I consider this a nice balance b/w the two. No hiccups or crashes yet, thanks!
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Ok, not sure if this is a rom or kernel issue. But on my roomates keyboard and menu keys they become unresponsive sometimes not all the time. Mind you we have 3 ns4g's running 1.3d and matr1x 6.0cfs and I have set them all up. But he is always messing with it (not flashing things). Mine every blue moon I have to tap something twice. But I always run custom stuff and he is a iphone geek (that may be the issue).

Has anyone ever seen this with the keyboard or menu buttons?
[Nexus S General] lemonoid:
On some occasions I have to triple tap a text box for the keyboard to come up but triple tap always works and its been on various ROMs
[Nexus S General] kevlars9:
I have problems with the keyboard locking up as well. I dont think its rom related because it happened on stock as well. It is however quite annoying.
