I've tried all the rest and always come back to old faithfull...its just the fastest and most reliable while keeping very good battery life. On 10/5 with wallet working and running 800/interactive on Pete's kernel, it just works!
[Nexus S General] :
also getting this issue. 10/2 pete's kernel

---------- Post added at 11:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

by chance, did you guys install the new google+ from the ICS build? (people who were having contact issues)
[Nexus S General] jta462:
^^ Yes. I did. And the new music.

Edit - uninstalled New Google+ and rebooted. Issue resolved.
[Nexus S General] onemadrssn:
For what it's worth, a new nightly has been added

http://wonderly.com/bb/CRESPO4G/ROM/GINGERBREAD/
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
Looks like Pete has been busy, flashing after work. Thanx Pete!
[Nexus S General] djelmonstruo:
thanks

downloading now :D
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
NICE! I flashed it on top'of the last one and wallet worked without doing anything extra.
[Nexus S General] method2madness:
Any idea whats changed?
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Did you wipe data/factory reset & clear cache/dalvik cache?
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
Just the davlik.
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
I just flashed the new build with a full wipe and wallet isn't working. I really don't want to wipe again. Is there a way to get it working without doing it?
[Nexus S General] kalico17:
you need to full wipe, install rom, install wallet, then GAPPs. then boot.

Wallet has worked for me for weeks now, just off those steps.
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
That sucks. Why does the order matter? I hate having to restore freaking everything. *sigh*
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Fleury14 just wiped dalvik & everything is working.
[Nexus S General] vhgomez36:
If you hate it so much why do you bother doing it? I wipe, flash different Roms , and reload everything with titanium backup about .3 times a day. When I started doing it, I didn't care if it took me all day and all night to do it. I was so exited when I finely figured out how to do it...that I just to it for the fun of it.
[Nexus S General] method2madness:
Because it does. If you don't want to have to restore everything, then just leave it as is and go without Wallet. Otherwise suck it up and press on.
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
if he JUST wiped and flashed why not just follow the rest of the process from there? That being said a wipe is not necessary.
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
"Because it does" is a really bad answer. I am truly curious what is going on behind the scenes. There has to be a way to do it without wiping. I wiped again and did things in the right order this time and it is working. I still want to know what is happening during the first boot that causes problems if you don't flash the fix...
[Nexus S General] onemadrssn:
Last week I updated to the GPA18 10/5 nightly, googlewalletfix_v4.zip, then gapps-20110828.zip (in that order). Wallet did not work, it would FC on boot and on launch.

Today, I installed googlewalletfix_v5.zip, GPA18 10/13 nightly, and then cleared only davlik (again in that order). Wallet works fine now. Not sure if any of those steps were not needed though...

[edit]Spoke too soon. Wallet launches now, but I get the "Insufficient Privileges" error. Heading over to that thread to investigate solutions...
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
Had a working wallet on 10/05 nightly and flashed 10/13 right over the top with no wipes and wallet still works. Gonna test some stuff out tonight and will report any issues, this rom is just plain smooth and fast!
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
I've heard you need to also fix permissions in recovery.
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Please do! I've been too afraid to update to any of the recent nightlies! I'm afraid I won't be able to get Google wallet working again. It was a pain the first time! Also, see if you can try it out also. I thought I had it working once, but when I went to pay for something it wouldn't go through.
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
Well I tried a few places randomly and didn't find one with pay pass. I will try again tomorrow to test if a purchase actually works. I was assuming that if the app works fine as far as showing my balance it will also let me charge something but it seems others also report it not working like you said, that seems very odd though...:confused:

Other than that the latest is running just fine for me without wiping anything before flashing(over the top of previous) which is cool with me ;)

now if that kitchen would just empty out so I can make some mods before bed I'd be stoked!
[Nexus S General] jmkarc:
This is what I have done between the nightlies since getting wallet to work with 10/2 (which was flashed with full wipe/factory reset) and wallet has kept working so far:

-boot into recovery, perform backup

-wipe delvik

-install new nightly zip

-install the wallet fix (googlewalletfix_v5.zip)

-fix permissions

-boot phone, letting fully boot

-reboot, letting fully boot, then run Wallet.
[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
Just FYI, Wallet will be in the final "stable" build of GPA18. Just gotta find some time to get it in there. I also noticed someone mentioned installing GApps zip on this ROM, that is not needed, my ROM comes with the latest ones available and I keep them updated regularly.
[Nexus S General] method2madness:
Awesome. Thanks for all your hard work, Pete! GPA is my favorite ROM for sure. :)
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Take your time bud. I'm a full time student with a part time job myself. I know how crazy classes can get. Plus, my classes aren't nearly as hard as yours are, so I don't even know how you manage the time to do this dev stuff! Major props to ya!
[Nexus S General] q711179:
Wallet included when final is released.

What a relief to hear Pete. This ROM is simply amazing and your hard work makes all the difference. After first losing the Wallet functions after an update I decided to wait until a final came out, know that you would have it in there, because that is the kind of perfectionist worker you are.

I am hitting the donate button when your final is released. Thanks again.
[Nexus S General] EVO in OHIO:
Wallet is working with 10-13 nightly, but I did need to do a full wipe. Using wallet fix v5
[Nexus S General] autoprime:
dialer codes still do not work in latest nightly :/
[Nexus S General] joebarkho:
Is there a change log?
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Does Peter plan on continuing the Bugless Series with all the extra features? Like the old days?
[Nexus S General] onigiri1692:
That is what Pete said on page 3...so it sounds like with the release of 2.3.7 the timeline has changed a bit, but time permitting Bugless Beast is still on his agenda. Although with Ice Cream Sandwich coming out soon perhaps the plan has changed.
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Thanks! Im an idiot, i know i read that before just dont know y it didnt snap
[Nexus S General] JohnCorleone:
Which version do dialer codes work on?
[Nexus S General] :
my wallet was working last night, but didn't want to go through with the cashier? it kept saying sent on my phone, but it never actually went through. after some embarassment, i got the slushie for free. any idea why this wouldn't work?
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
I've had that happen to me before. I just had to redo everything. Wipe everything, install ROM & Google wallet fix, & reboot. Never figured out why it did that.
[Nexus S General] evanmelin:
Im new to android, just got a sprint nexus s. unlocked and rooted. recently did a full wipe. I have the latest nightly and Im having a problem in the android market.

when I try to purchase a paid app (anything not free). when I touch the price to download the app it has a pop up that says "an error occurred. please try again" no matter how many times I try I still get the same message. I have tried rebooting, I even did a full wipe and reinstalled the rom and Im still having the problem

am I missing something? any help would be greatly appreciated
[Nexus S General] onigiri1692:
The newest nightly contains the newest market which is 3.2.0 and some users are reporting that they aren't able to purchase apps with that version (supposably it is the leaked version which will be included in Ice Cream Sandwich). I honestly haven't purchased any apps since upgrading to 3.2.0 so I can't confirm it personally but at least one user in this thread got the same error as you. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1306055

If you don't want to wait for the problem to be fixed I recommend just downgrading to the last version of market.
[Nexus S General] jrbooth3:
when my wallet was saying sent but not paying I clicked the payment icon below the card and it said it needed to rebuild its databases and it started working after about 5 minutes
[Nexus S General] onigiri1692:
Hey Pete I was just looking at the GPA18 change log and noticed you recently added the Pacman package manager. I'm just curious what your plans are for it, because I was looking into it and it sounds like you will be able to push updates once it is fully implemented, which would be really cool. Is my assumption right? and what are the security risks, if any, of having such a system in the rom? Anyways thanks for all your hard work, your roms are incredible.
[Nexus S General] :
seems mine needed to rebuild itself as well. i clicked on the default card thing and it said error then cleared some databases and some other stuff and it seems like it should be good to go now.

Thanks!

[Nexus S General] raiderep:
He's been busy on github today so I'm guessing gpa18 final ;)

Thanx for your efforts Pete :D
[Nexus S General] funcrusher:
Pete, you rock.
[Nexus S General] djelmonstruo:
i hope he included the ability to take screenshot.
[Nexus S General] oscarthegrouch:
Try to hit menu/settings/applications/manage/all then look for market. Clear out data box and try market again. I don't know if this will fix anything but in the past, it has cleared up some market related gremlins I've had.

Sometimes the market wants to use the profile of another gmail account you might have set up to sync stuff with. The way i found to perminently fix it was to remove all gmail accounts under the phone's settings in accounts except the mail gmail you use for your contact list and bought apps. I then use the other program called email, not gmail app, and set up all the other gmail accounts with that app. That stops the market from switching to another account whenever it feels like being a pain in the ass.
[Nexus S General] EVO in OHIO:
Try the ShootMe app should do everything you need
[Nexus S General] mikehippe:
Can't wait Pete, your ROM's kick-ass......

Wow, I though I opened Facebook for a minute there. I think social networks would be in order here, not in a development forum. He is on google +, twitter, and FB. Don't mean any harm just a suggestion. Btw anyone having issues with apps2sd? Mine tries to default and loses the icon and app location until I move to device storage.

I've been waiting a long time for a ROM called BuglessBeast. Lol Dl-d and flashing now.

Thanks PA
[Nexus S General] kaos1211:
Was using stock since I got my ns4g but tried one ROM and matrix kernel now addicted to roms. Haven't tried any of the GPA series but keep hearing great things, thanks for the hard work
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
Thanks Pete! Flashing before work, hope I'm not late lol
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
GPA18 - BuglessBeast

So far so good! I'm restoring my apps w/ TB now. Everything is running great: fast, smooth, no lag! Using Pete's kernel, haven't flashed Matr1x yet & I may not. Need to test out G.Wallet. It's opened up & restored my prepaid card, but I'll need to see it working for real. I'll post an update after a while of test driving, lol!
[Nexus S General] itsmikeramsay:
Man I miss this ROM

Sent from a Fully Unlocked Sensation 4G using the XDA Premium App!
[Nexus S General] parkpy:
Awesome! I've tried several of the ROMs and Kernels, here, but have had stabilities issues with all EXCEPT Bugless Pete's GPA18 Beta (as is).

I wish I had brought my microusb cable to work with me today! DAMN!

Thanks Pete! Will send you donation ASAP:)
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
It's one of...if not the best I've tried so far. I'm not big into the customized ROM's, like MIUI. I like plain/lightly customized, stock, stable, smooth & fast! If that's for you, then Pete's ROMs will not disappoint!
[Nexus S General] jta462:
Awww. The Beast! This will definitely hold me over til ICS hits. Thanks for letting us walk with ya Pete!
[Nexus S General] DominoDoug:
Download to your phone from his site. Or use ROM Manager to do it all for you.
[Nexus S General] Csquared:
I flashed this a few hours ago and noticed I was syncing with Google a long time. Turns out it was syncing wallet before I set it up. I then setup Wallet and still kept syncing non stop. I had to go into accounts and unchecked wallet to get it to stop. Anyone else have this issue.
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
It was syncing for a long while, but it eventually stopped for me. I just let it do its thing. I'm not sure if the syncing stopped before or after I went into G.Wallet & clicked to have it "add google prepaid card", but I know it stopped & I didn't turn off syncing.
[Nexus S General] javan966:
Awww man I miss this ROM on my Nexus S4G traded it to get the Galaxy S 2 on sprint. Pete please bring this ROM over to the Epic Touch, need the best AOSP ROM out there. Keep up the good work will be sending a donation soon
[Nexus S General] zstuart:
I am coming from stock 2.3.7 going to peter's 2.3.7. Do I need to wipe data in cwm?
[Nexus S General] pfer10:
Same with me syncs notification is on all the time although check menu sync and nothing is active.
[Nexus S General] pfer10:
Looks like logging into wallet and setting that up was the fix along with a reboot afterwards. Thanks for the Tom Pete!
[Nexus S General] lilmexx:
I'm updating from GPA17 and for some reason, anytime I do a restore of anykind, my wallet breaks. I gets an unsecured error or something to that effect. I have tried a backup in Titanium and thru clockwork. Same result either way. Any ideas?
[Nexus S General] raxe:
OMG bugless beast! Thank you so much Pete!
[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
To get wallet working you must start with a clean slate, install the ROM and wipe data/factory reset.

Also to answer someone elses question, if coming from any other ROM but mine, you must also wipe everything.
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
I can't find any mention in the changelogs going way back, so... init.d script support? I just started using a kernel with deepidle support. The battery life is amazing. Remembering to enable it after each reboot kinda sucks.
[Nexus S General] njeske:
Downloading now to try it out. If it's anything like your previous work I'm sure it will be great!
[Nexus S General] lilmexx:
So there is no way to restore any data then? Just rebuild things in I guess..
[Nexus S General] njeske:
Can someone post a link to the flashable zip that puts the power control settings in the notification bar? I have 3 different "testui.zip" files that I've tried with GPA18, but all of them result in the status bar crashing.
[Nexus S General] method2madness:
Which kernel are you running? I know matr1x has it enabled by default. I'm running GPA18 Beta and checked and it looks like it's enabled. Are you saying yours isn't?
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
I thought the kernel supporting it wasn't enough, the ROM also has to support it? Or maybe I just don't know how to make use of it. Off to read up some more...
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
I flashed this today, coming from Pete's 10/3 nightly of 237. I made a backup of my apps using TB beforehand & as long as you clear data, cache, & dalvik before flashing GPA18 you should be fine. You are just trying to restore your apps correct?
[Nexus S General] onigiri1692:
Here you go, Quick Panel for Pete's GPA. I'm using it with the latest release and have experienced no problems.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1239060
[Nexus S General] njeske:
Thanks. That one is working without crashing the status bar. However USB mounting gives some errors. It works, but something's not right.
[Nexus S General] onigiri1692:
Thats wierd, I guess something has changed with the newest release because I've been using it as recently as with the 10/13 nightly with no errors, but I plugged my phone into my computer and am getting errors as well with the latest release. I'm able to access the files and all but you are correct in saying something isn't right.
[Nexus S General] method2madness:
Nope. Just the kernel. It's a kernel level mod.
[Nexus S General] batting1000:
Awesome! Thanks Peter! Works great on my NS4G. :)

---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

Deleted Wallet, don't use it anyway.
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
I switched to Matr1x kernel, and now it works. Thought Netarchy supported it since it has the deepidle mod. *shrug*
[Nexus S General] DtownJeff:
Anyone having problems with Google Music app?
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
I was checking in to say all is well so far but now that you mention it this is the only thing I'm having trouble with. I've tried quite a few different things to get it to sync right but it seems to only play off of my sdcard and won't stream anything....gonna try a few more things...
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Had issues with my home captive button, endless google sync loops.
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
I had the same issue when I was using the ICS version of Google Music. Maybe try removing Google Music and install it from the Market.
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
I had the issue too, i'm assuming the issue is coming from restoring data from a backup. I did "Clear Data" and it started working just fine.
[Nexus S General] jta462:
No issues here but I wipe everything and restore nothing. I always do to get the best experience from a Rom no matter what I'm flashing.

Edit - and read dev's instructions carefully :)
[Nexus S General] djelmonstruo:
no issue with this rom at all. everything is working great.:D

---------- Post added at 01:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

from pete notes: Syncing icons WILL go away after setting up Google Wallet (Nexus S 4G only)

[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Google Wallet

Hmmm...the wallet gave me some problems today. Attempted to pay for something with my phone & every time I tapped my phone it would say it sent, but then say there was an error & to tap again. I rebooted my phone & tried again, same thing. I rebooted again, turned off bluetooth, tried to pay again & it worked. Not sure if the bluetooth being on was the issue, if it was the terminal, or just a weird quirk. Just thought I should put that out there. I don't think the bluetooth would interfere w/ the NFC signal or not.

Note: Yes, my NFC was on. I checked & the box was checked.
[Nexus S General] jeffreynothing43:
This happened to me today too...and Bluetooth wasn't on and I am on Deck's Rom. Downright embarrassing...the lady said "what the hell are you doing?" I got flustered and pulled out my trusty debit card. Sux
[Nexus S General] ryandoubleu:
Google Wallet

Seems that Google wallet was constantly running in the background and killing my battery on 10-23-11 nightly. I uninstalled it because I don't use it but if your batterly life sucks all of a sudden check the battery stats
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Yeah, it was a little embarassing, lol! While I was rebooting my phone I saw her talking to her coworker about what I was trying to do & she was laughing. That just made me determined to get it to work! Once it did I smiled proudly & walked away!
[Nexus S General] SineOtter:
If you've used Google Wallet fine in the past, make sure that you toggle the payment card's "default card" setting off and on at least once. If Google Wallet says that it needs to be reset, follow through with that it will work from then on. Something to do with the database being okay enough to look like it's working, but then silently failing on any attempts to pay with it.
[Nexus S General] tony1208:
i havent tried wallet as of yet but was wondering about the pin lock.....i know i have to wake my cell and tap the machine but once i do that do i have to put the wallet pin on my cell to go through??
[Nexus S General] njeske:
Yes, you have to use your pin, but you don't have to unlock your phone. Just press the power button so the screen is on. Tap the phone, enter pin, tap the phone again, done.
[Nexus S General] dscatto:
Yes & no. Depends on what you have the "Google Wallet timeout" set to in the settings. If you have entered your pin already & unlocked your Google Wallet & use it w/in the set "timeout" time frame, then you won't need to enter your pin. If not then you'll just wake your phone up, tap, enter pin, & tap again.
[Nexus S General] DtownJeff:
I think I have it. You can only register 8 devices to Google music beta. It looks like every time we wipe and flash a rom it registers as a new device. Go the music beta site on your PCs browser. Click the gear at the top right and click music settings. You may find multiple entries of your device. Un-register them and you should be fine. Then log into the music app.
[Nexus S General] raiderep:
And that is exactly what was happening, thanx for the tip! Never thought of checking my computer set up, actually forgot that's how I got all my music on there in the first place...doh! Works fine again :D
[Nexus S General] belvedere:
maybe this will fix my issue... I made a couple of playlists of like 50 songs or so each and did the "make available offline" option. it seemed to have worked and did for a day. but then this morning I went to plug in my phone and play the songs in offline mode and they had disappeared. I wasn't maxed out on 8 devices, but perhaps cuz 3 or 4 of them were named the same thing Google Music was getting confused.
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
Nowhere did I say there was an issue with this ROM.
[Nexus S General] koolkid09:
Hey everyone. I am about to receive my Nexus S in a couple of days and was wondering if this rom has the Facebook contact sync option that is disabled in the official update.
