It seems that if the earbuds connecter spins at all in the jack, which will always happen to some degree, the player begins to skip. Is this something I can fix?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
If you can reproduce it by spinning the plug then it sounds like a hardware problem. If using a different pair of headphones doesn't fix it then it is your phone....

If it might be software, have you tried using the new Music beta media player instead?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam123:
Yeah, three different sets of earbuds and upgraded to the new Music beta media player. I guess I need to call T-Mobile (ugh).

How you get a new one that fixes all your problems!

I picked up this phone a few days ago just want to let people know for the price this is a great pre-paid phone. 160 at bestbuy and you can google a 10% off coupon and i got it for 154 out the door! Angry birds works on it too! Has live backgrounds pre installed, all this phone needs is to be rooted with some overclocking and it would be very impressive. Here are some videos i found while thinking of buying it.

Thankfully this phone isn't one of their lower end SoC's that they've used in previous phones and went with a qualcomm SoC. The bad about it though, the msm11 series is arm 11 and has adreno 200. But has actual hardware support compared to the Moment, Spica, Transform, Intercept, etc etc.
[General Topics] reeshmd23:
I agree its no high end phone of course(it would be $400 then) but for a starter prepaid smart phone that eventually cost you 35 a month for unlimited everything with no data throttling you cant go wrong. PDA net tether does work too just found out. Its like a sore D@&K you cant beat it!

My sister just picked up one of these via boost mobile. Good phone for her so far.

Oh yeah easily, all I'm saying is if they used their low end SoC then the phone would be terrible.

Dear people of awesomeness,

The story: I was following the exciting thread about the new CWM support for SGS4G by krylon360 and team, followed the directions (overwriting the recovery file WITH R/W enabled, placing update.zip into the root of my SD card...), and got stuck. Didn't know what to do exactly after that, other than try to use ROM Manager to backup my phone. Saw the "Reboot into recovery" option in the ROM manager menu and thought hey, let's see what this does. Most careless, stupidest thing I've done this year. fail.

The question: What is/are the way/s to boot into stock recovery mode? I can't seem to find a definitive method for booting into "stock recovery mode", though I've found plenty of ways to boot into download mode (a whole thread of them lol). I managed to find ONE method after reading through hundreds (honest) of posts in dozens of threads here and elsewhere: Hold vol+ Vol- and Power simultaneously from a powered off state.

The secondary fail: Obviously this didn't work for me, and although I'm near certain I'm going to have to do the "Odin" thing, I just wanted to ask if anyone could clearly explain the method to boot into stock recovery?

The shameless 2nd question: This question may have been asked elsewhere, shame on me, but... the .tar I'm downloading ([ROM-ODIN]T959VUVKB5 Stock + Root -- (hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=978836)) will it wipe my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris....:
does your phone still boot up normally?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris....:
also when you get to the recovery menu it should be blue. scroll down to reinstall packages, and that will get you to CWM recovery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
Ok first, Rom Manager should not be used until Koush incorporates our device in it.

Your findings are correct, the vol+,vol-, + the power button should get you into recovery, besides that the only other way is to use an app/power menu mod but that requires the phone to be on.

It sounds like the next thing for you is Odin. From your phones current state you can, hold vol+, vol- and then plug USB Cable into phone (Brings you into download mode), ive read some users pull battery and put it back in, but the first way i explained it should get you into download mode. From there, choose Roms KB5, KC1, or KD1, and yes your device will be factory reset. Your documents should be on your SD. I dont know if you have Titanium Backup to restore your apps, if not, you will have to manually install them after your odin session.

hope this helps

E:signature verification failed

When I boot into recovery mode and select reinstall packages it starts out:

install from SD card

Finding update package

Opening update package

verifying update package...

E:signature verification failed

installation aborted

I have downloaded krylon360's cwm final update.zip and put it in my root directory.

The only posibility I can think of was a friend rooted my phone with an older update.zip file and i am trying to put the new one on. I deleted the old update.zip and copied over the new one.

i then downloaded odin and followed the instructions on a post to flash my rom with the t959+root from krylon360 as well. I believe that worked, because a lot of the apps that came with the phone are back now.

i tried reinstalling packages after this and still the verification error.

i have been doing a lot of browsing, searching and reading tons of posts on here... cant seem to figure this one out. any ideas?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
If you successfully flashed your phone and have root access, double check the update.zip is in the root and make sure its the latest one. Another thing is to make sure you copied over the Recovery file and pushed (Copied) it over to System/bin folder. Once you have those two in place you can reboot into stock recovery then "re-install packages" to get to CWM Recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] akira6968:
Hooray!

I did the ODIN thing, according to the post mentioned in my OP, and it fixed everything :) My custom shutdown vid, startup/shutdown sounds were gone, but my apps were still there, even paid apps. No titanium backup.... guess I got lucky lol. Scared the crap outta me when it wouldn't load past the T-Mobile startup image.

I knew not to use CWM yet, was following the thread about imminent implementation of sgs4g support for CWM, but just didn't really think that booting into recovery mode from CWM would get me stuck like that. Didn't even try to install recovery for CWM, knowing that "Epic 4G" and "Vibrant", etc were not the right choice despite the seeming similarities.

I had been keeping up with moving all apps i could to SD, so maybe that saved me, I dunno.

Followed pixelbrains post to use odin and worked perfect. Thank you all!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
glad you got your phone back. \m/
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] edge228:
Thank you for that info.... I actually finally figured it out, but it took me forever. the key kind of is what i thought, that i did not have the recovery file in the right spot. I finally found a free file manager, super manager (recommonded on one of theses posts, i read so many cant remember which one :) ) after fiddiling with that for like 30-40 mins i finally figured the correct procedure to allow me to paste that recovery file and once i did that, bam, cwm recovery worked fine.

so, the fact that i am able to get to that screen and the latest update.zip file is in my external sd cards root dir. i am all goo there right?

i also used odin to flash "PDA_KD1.tar.md5" my phone after i got that recovery file in the correct place, and then when that was done i booted into the cwm recovery after i downloaded "Bali_SGS4G_v1.4UV.zip" and then i hit install zip from SD card, and i selected choose zip file and selected that bali one, and then i had to scroll down like 7 spots to hit yes to install and it went for a few seconds and then acted like it was done, so i just hit back and then reboot. how do i know if that worked? cuz i dont see anything saying bali at all on my phone...

does it sound like i did that right?

thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] de1packers:
settings menu then go to about phone and check the kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] edge228:
thank you, it shows the bali as kernel... so glad to see i did it correctly :)

Its been like a month since i got my Nexus S, and I9023 is the only model in Singapore. I found out that the phone messaging does not display messages i didnt send through the thread itself, so heres the problem, my friends have been saying that im sending them messages, that they already received. Say for example i send Hi to my friend 2 days ago, 2 days later, they might receive the same Hi message which i did not send, on top of that, since messaging does not display those messages, i wont have any idea who i sent it to.

That's fine for those with root, but I have a feeling our OP does not.

I also want to let you guys know that I personally flash these ROMS before posting them to make sure they are safe. With that being said, you flash them at your own risk...

*Disclaimer: These builds are in no way meant to replace the nightly builds, just to bridge the gap when the bot isnt building. I am not a dev, and these are not approved by our CM guy. You may post bugs with these builds, in THIS thread only. They will not be addressed, but noted. If you flash these builds, do not post in nemith's "official" thread anything concerning these build's.

OK, lets try this again :) I deleted the other thread because I didnt want it to be a source of drama for us NS4G owners. Everyone seems to get along here, so far lol. I will build whats in the repo, the chances of things being broken are pretty high. I was fixing things in the previous builds, I wont be doing that this time, these will be straight off the CM git. So, with that here is todays build...only thing Ive found wrong with this is the 4g toggle, of course...

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
I would like to see this thread locked, BUT keep the OP updated daily/whenever you update. There is no reason to discuss bugs or things since this is an unofficial build that will change nightly. This thread should just be info and the download imho

Just my .02 anyway.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mbh87:
I disagree, keep it open. Not so much a place to discuss the bugs as it is just to post them so people now what to expect. If a build doesnt boot, etc, I would rather someone else find that out and post it. That way 20 people dont have to boot to a very broken or non functional build.

Not to mention every single CM device has a "kang" build thread, that is also left unlocked.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
I would have no problem with that. I dont think I can edit the OP if its locked though. And there wont necessarily be a build every day. Just under these circumstances, i.e. no build for 4 or 5 days and tons of new commits. Not saying its a common occurance, but it is known to happen.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
Fair enough, didnt think of it that way :)

I didn't really think of the not booting / lots of issues / things like that. I know mikey just mentioned something about keeping drama down and I thought it might have been a good idea. Obviously 2 sides to every thought process though. Its one of the reasons I love this forum
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
Seriously, this is the best section I've seen here at xda. I want it to stay that way. The reason I closed the other thread is because there was concern these builds and this thread would cause issues for nemith in the "official" thread. I don't think that will be the case and ask that everyone do their part to make sure we keep them seperate. Thanks so much guys :)

So, the build posted is legit. No issues that I've seen. Can't wait for working 4g toggle...

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
well, what exactly happened?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
ehh.. same ole same ole ;) 3rd time today, just had it sitting on charger, glanced over at it with the 'yellowish' boot ani => bootloop city.

I usually just pull the battery and fix permissions, and it's fine. But curious what's actually causing it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
thats happening on these builds?? ive never had that happen, and I saw someone, maybe you, say it was launcherpro?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
Ya, I am using launcher pro. But honestly, I've modded so much crap, that I can't pin it on the build, or kernel... So, just looking for ways to find the culprit. I'm connected to usb now and just have logcat running... hoping it does it again :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
Cool - it did it again... I let it bootloop a few times and checking the logs now.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] baller2319:
I dont have launcher pro but every morning when i wake up the phone is frozen. The screen wont even turn on. Only the buttons light up. Do you know what could possibly causing this.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
no effin way dude, i think you jinxed me. my phone hadnt gone off for a while, i picked it up and it was doing that wierd thing with the screen. first time. but very scary, i cant have my alarm not go off in the morning...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
lol (and not lol), that's weird.

I'm still combing through... are any of you guys using fancy widget, by any chance? it seems like the S-storm of crashing is awfully close to each time it updates my weather. But that also seems kinda crazy.. I'll edit if I find anything. Or if you wanna look thru the logs.. hit me up.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] obsanity:
I'm using fancy widget and launcher pro. I've had that happen to me one or twice but haven't seen it in a while. I'm on #7.

I'm using netarchy stable with some undervolting and smartass with 200min and usually 1000max or more. Like I said, I haven't seen anything like that in a while but I do a dalvik wipe/reboot once every 2-3 days because it keeps it running fast.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
I am using neither and yet my Alarm clock icon still eventually dissapears from the status bar and does not go off. In the app it claims it is still active. I don't get it. Is android killing it to preserve memory or something?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] obsanity:
Hmmm... it could be. Are you running the new 06-02-11 or are you on #7?

BTW, I just had a freeze and automatic reboot which resulted in bootloops (I'm on #7). I had to pull the battery. I wiped dalvik fixed permittions and rebooted. I'm thinking it could be my undervolting so I may bump that up a bit.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
Yes. 6/2/11. Now 6/3/11. I have fixed permissions multiple times, cleared data, cleared cache to no avail.

Edit: Same problem on the newest build. As far as I can tell, the app wants to do its job but something kills the foreground process.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
hey Mikey, I realize this is a matter of opinion but I'd figure I'd ask... I'm on your latest ROM and its great. I'm loving the battery and no stability issues. Is cyanogen all its made out to be? I see the advantage on devices that have bloat from the factory, but on our nexus what do we really gain performance wise? Just looking for your opinion, thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikeyinid:
Well, you want my opinion? Ive given it somewhere here before, Ill be happy to share again :) You really hit the nail on the head man. CM7 is based on the version of software our phones came out of box with. There isnt really a performance gain running CM on the NS4G. But, the options and features of CM make it a better option. I love the theme chooser, the lockscreen options, and the ability to overclock and choose a governor without using setcpu or whatever. Its just based on personal preference, whether you want the bells and whistles, or just plain jane.
