I use an i9020A on AT&T as well. I had to flash the uncapped KB3 radio to mine to get decent upload speeds. On average, my download speed tends to be somewhere between 1.5Mbps and 2.5Mbps while uploads are usually between 1.0-1.5Mbps.

The default radio (KD1) that came with the OTA 2.3.4 upgrade was capped. :mad:

Can't remember which posting I found it in here at XDA so I just uploaded the file here: http://www.mediafire.com/?tz06t4d4yaucusg
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denimjunkie82:
I had I9020AUCKD1 stock. I dont remember the speeds but they were pretty junky.

The first thing i did after unlocking and rooting is flash a radio. I flashed this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12727000&postcount=82

And now I get these speeds:

These are about the same speeds I had with my N1 so I'm satisfied. btw I'm on ATT and live in the bay area, CA. YMMV.

- Choose zip from sdcard

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denimjunkie82:
I've never flashed a radio from recovery before. It's possible that the zip isn't signed or not supported for recovery flashing.

I prefer fastboot for radios since it requires less steps for the phone to do, less chance of error IMO.

unzip the zip and pull out the radio.img and place it in your fastboot directory

check that the MD5 is ebc55ccf390a9c310f4f3e8b6f178e59

fastboot devices to make sure your fastboot detects your phone

fastboot flash radio radio.img
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranphi:
What version of CWM are you using? You'll need to be at 3.0.2.4 at least to successfully flash that radio.

Also, some peeps that downloaded radio files via their phone's browser had issues. Downloading via a computer and then transferring the file to their phone enabled them to successfully flash.

HTH. Good luck!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykphuah:
Does this apply to all other variants as well? Since my 9020T is also running 2.3.4 and KD1!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rveez:
Okay I successfully got the radio flashed to the KB3. It really does improve my 3G speeds as described by others here!

Now I have no use for my device to be rooted. I know how to re-lock the bootloader but I'm not quite sure what I need to do to restore a recovery image. Unfortunately I don't have a backup to restore from.

Where can I get a recovery that has my i9020a/GRJJ22/2.3.4 with the KB3 radio?

Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iboj007:
So is the consensus now that for AT&T and the 9020a, the best radio is KB3?

If you want faster uncapped speeds on the fido/rogers network just flash KB3 radio...heres what I get now...use to get your speeds on KB2.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brenardo:
I have read multiple threads from people trying to relock there device and having a nightmare experience and I have also been thru the LNX 0x0004 experience so this is why I am posting this.

First off I flashed back to stock unrooted via the SBF files that were originally available to receive the OTA to 3.1.

Now that I am on 3.1 the SBF files no longer work to revert back to stock.

Being that I took the OTA what are my options to get my Xoom relocked ?

I know the latest images for 3.1 are not available yet (if ever) and when I originally tried to flash the 3.01 img files that is where I ran I to LNX 0x0004.

What could have went wrong? Bad download? Or Is it a no no to flash the 3.01 files over the 3.1 OTA update?

Is someone know how to remove sound on boot and close in khalpower's v3 ROM ?

I think it's monuting sd card sound
[Milestone XT720 General] try-and-error:

you can disable it in Settings - Sounds - Notification --> Soundless

Not sure if the names are correct cos I have it in German, but you should be able to find it.

[Nexus S General] White girl:
Which one should I get? There's no difference in price.
[Nexus S General] KidCold:
There are pros and against for either but i'l say get the samoled. Colours look more vibrant, makes it a joy use everyday ;)
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
+1 samoled
[Nexus S General] XDA_Badman:
Get the super-AMOLED for sure , its super vibrant and it really goes well with contour display aka (bent screen).
[Nexus S General] docster121:
S AMOLED Without a doubt
[Nexus S General] dario3040:
Not taking the Samoled would be a noob move
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Super amoled. There's no comparison, and it's better for battery life.
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
i'm sure if you were to sell a nexus s, it would be easier to sell the samoled for more $$ than the slcd.
[Nexus S General] cdstewart:
Actually slcd is better on battery

Samoled is nicer tho
[Nexus S General] draugaz:
I would get an SLCD.

Much sharper (no pentile), more natural and accurate colors, much easier on battery on displaying light content (like this page), no pixel burn in.
[Nexus S General] lvnatic:
Its all about preference. SLCD has the most natural colors and in the sunlight its actualy better then the samoled. I've seen it with my own eyes. I held them both in my hand and I enjoyed mine more. Samoled is just a big fuss imo, just like the retina display. And where in jesus christ did you read that the slcd consumes more battery?

Anyway, its up to you, true colors over sarurated colors.
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
I would vote SLCD as the clarity it offers over the Pentile matrix is great. Sure you lose some contrast, but I think it's worth it.

Also it's not as over-saturated, although some would call that less vivid. Swings & roundabouts, take a good look at both and see what you prefer.
[Nexus S General] Carne_Asada_Fries:
Personally I think the oversaturated reason is flawed as you can just use voodoo color settings to adjust to your liking but I prefer Samoled because I like the blacks and the colors. If you like white and stuff then I would recommend slcd instead.
[Nexus S General] Borky_16:
Google costumized 2.3 for Samoled with the blacks to save energy! why you would take a slcd ? ;)
[Nexus S General] fallenguru:
If it were just SAMOLED vs. SLCD I'd say SAMOLED. However, the Nexus S's SAMOLED display loses a PenTile matrix, which has 1/3 fewer subpixels than regular displays, greatly reducing its effective resolution (google for details).

I hate PenTile matrix with a passion, others barely notice it. Of course it also depends on what you do:

Mostly videos, photos => AMOLED version

Mostly text => SLCD version

Want it all and can live without Voodoo sound => save up for an SGS2
[Nexus S General] thekenny:
i would say the colors on the lcd look more natural
[Nexus S General] genexxa72:
Super Amoled for me... good contrast and more vivid colors.
[Nexus S General] dario3040:
Many of you are talking absolute bull****.

The SuperLcd does not have more natural colours, neither is it better in sunlight.

I can barely see anything on the SuperLcd version outside.

Let me tell you why you should get the SuperAmoled:

Screen response time is 0.1ms, vs 25ms on the SuperLcd (better for everything, including video, and scrolling).

Much better colours. (colours look washed out on the superlcd version)

Thinner display = Lighter weight, which again equals: less damage when dropped.

Way better in sunlight.
[Nexus S General] dario3040:
In another thread she stated that it would be too big for her hand? xD
[Nexus S General] lvnatic:
I held them both in my hand in direct sunlight and I can tell you 100% that the SLCD is brighter. My friend which owned the super amoled version agreed with me and we tested in different colors.

The Samoled has vribrat colors tho and they indeed look very nice, but vibrant colors != natural colors.

Super amoled is just very advertised and hyped but that doesn't mean it's the "best" display technology. Like I said, it's all about preferance, and I prefered the SLCD over the Samoled simply because of the sunlight thingy. If people care to analyze, some might find the SLCD to suit their needs better, so they deserve to know the pros and cons of both. I personally don't care about the Samoled black at all, I need a bright white color when browsing and in daily use its not like its very noticeable, they all look black in the end.
[Nexus S General] evlevl:
Yup, that's true ;)

Just better. And in direct sunlight.

I don't have SuperLCD Nexus here, but I have SuperAMOLED one and HTC Hero.

I can tell you that in normal room conditions pictures and photos look much much more better on Hero, than on NS. But, also it's true that if you're on sunny street, NS is much more contrast.
[Nexus S General] Acesofbelkan6:
I'd rather have a SLCD why?

-I rather enjoy my phone not worrying how much battery Im killing just because Im looking at something white like a webpage. The inverse color option in the browser is nice but what happens when the website itself is dark? The I have to go back and forth switching this option? no thanks.

-I can choose whatever background I want and not worry about battery conservation. Enjoy your black or dark background, while I can put whatever background I like with no compromises.

-Contrary to Dario, I have absolutely no problem viewing my SLCD Nexus s in pure broad beaming hot daylight. It's fully legible.

-SLCD cant do blacks as good as SAMOLED but can SAMOLED do whites as good? Equal trade off here.

-Slightly sharper images on SLCD.
[Nexus S General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
And? Professionals still use IPS panels which ahve SLOWER response times than the TN panels for gaming.

As for colors a lot of TN panels boost colors and push colors to make up for the lower quality panel. IPS looks natural where TN looks fake.

SLCD looks washed out because SAMOLED overpushes colors. Accurate colors are what I care for. Why do you think all consumer laptops have glossy screens which push RGB colors beyond actual 100% gamut levels, but professionals uses matte screens which give the normal color look.

Same with consumer headphones. Why do you think beats by dr. dre pushes bass, and a lot of people love punchy bass earbuds and think they have "good quality." Try a good pair of Shures or Ultimate Ears or Westones, and people go "omg this isn't as good as my Monster Beats crap" Fun earbds != accurate sound. I took a spin at my local Apple store with a $200 pair of Beats headphones, and sorry I'd take my Super Fi 5 Pros anyday. Sure my Super Fis are a little bassy, but in no way are they pushing bass like those ripoff Monsters.

If the SLCD and SAMOLED versions were the same I'd take SLCD:

- Great sunlight legibility

- Great contrast. IF you need to look at the screens in dark at boot to look at backlight bleeding to determine SLCD vs SAMOLED it means you can't distinguish under normal operation

- No worries about what color BG I use

- Sharper due to lack of Pentile.

If we're talking SAMOLED+ vs SLCD that's a different story. I put my Nexus S next to a Incredible S to base my opinions on SLCD. Of course we'd need an actual color analyzer to measure contrast and color accuracy on either screen to get into real scientific detail. But I can guarantee you most people will pick SAMOLED due to the "vibrant colors." What a pathetic reason. Our eyes deceive us. 140% gamut is not what's good. I bet they could make something that pushes like 200% gamut and people would be like "OMG SEXY"
[Nexus S General] draugaz:
My first impression from my brand new Amoled phone was "Yuck, ACID!" :)

SAMOLED+ got rid of pentile (which is a big plus), but is relatively dim (just up to ~220cd/m2, less than half of iphone4 or lg optimus black brightness) and still has those wide black gaps between pixels.
[Nexus S General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
But are you're saying SAMOLED+ isn't as bright as regular SAMOLED?

You know I got over my fear of low ppi. I saw how much better a 4" SLCD was compared to an SAMOLED in terms of sharpness only. I then told myself that a 4.3" SAMOLED+ should be pretty sharp, and I shouldn't be losing much compared to an NS.

Brightness will always lose to an iPhone. I don't know what they do, but by cranking the brightness real well, they kinda give that contrast/pop while washing out colors. The interesting thing is I don't really notice the washed out colors on my iPod Touch 4G (and even then its lack of an IPS panel like the iPhone 4 already puts it far worse). They compromise by giving enough contrast (sure they can't hit black levels like AMOLED), and having sharp enough text that its still easy on the eyes.

Something about our eyes though. The Droid's IPS panel gives it like 97% or 102% of Gamut. Perfect color rendition. No Pentile, but yet our eyes will naturally prefer something like SAMOLED with pushed colors, or Apple's Retina with incredibly sharp text yet great contrast. What foolish human minds :D

Hey guys! Here are a few boot animations I ported.

None of these are created by me. All credits to the creators.

Although, I resized most of them to get them to the right resolution. Smaller resolution = Quicker Load​

A lot of them are from the droid forum. So expect some droid logos.

Instructions

:

1. rename the downloaded zip file to bootanimation.zip

2. place bootanimation.zip in your sd card.

3. use root explorer and copy this bootanimation.zip to /data/local

OR

1. rename the downloaded file to bootanimation.zip

2. adb push /xxx/xxx/bootanimation.zip /data/local
