CPU settings can be found in the android settings. Menu, settings, and choose the top option.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
is there a way to turn on force roam without having to buy the roamcontrol app?
[Nexus S General] DammitCubs:
Oh wow...i don't know how that happened. But I don't have it!! WTF?!
[Nexus S General] eQuanoX:
Just downloaded the new rom; is anyone else having issues with applications (rom manager , sound and phone settings, etc) not opening and then having to force close them
[Nexus S General] brandonkahn:
remapping ur keys is simple and could avoid this if u have no other solution, pm me if u need help
[Nexus S General] sigaiser:
Until the functionality is fixed in the rom, roam control app is the best way currently.

But use caution as I am sure sprint will grown upon it if abused...be prepared to have a valid reason that you could argue to sprint if they ever decided to bill you for it or disconnect your service.
[Nexus S General] shinedown87:
Silly question, but I assume you have the Nexus 4G selected in the Roam Control app? For the life of me I cannot get it to work. When I select Roam Only, the phone loses all signal. And I am in an area with great roaming signal. When my phone decides to roam on its own, I have full bars.
[Nexus S General] jdizzle316:
Is everyone experiencing amazing battery life with this rom? Maybe i had a bad flash, because this rom seems to drain my battery quickly, and i need to reflash?

I agree with the posters on here tho saying this rom is incredibly fast and smooth, however, i am having worse battery life with this than Oxygen Rom? Any suggestions? Should I try to reflash or does Oxygen provide longer battery?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus S General] Highway 55:
Is anyone getting an error message when signing into the Facebook app? I haven't been able to use it for about a week. I don't know if this is a rom issue or a Facebook issue. Thanks.
[Nexus S General] ehiggins:
I had poor battery life but later noticed I was also missing the CPU settings under settings...I then wiped everything and started again and it's much improved and the CPU settings is there.
[Nexus S General] jdizzle316:
what do you have your settings at for the CPU? After your configurations, would you call this one of the better roms for battery life?

Thanks!
[Nexus S General] pfer10:
The dev says to run at 100 and 800 and keep it on interactive. I followed his advice as he knows his Roms. Couldn't be happier. Only stuff I have seen run like this is aosp's work on the the heroC and then the LG optimus.
[Nexus S General] pfer10:
Also under heavy use I had screen on time at just over 4 hours. Try that with any other rom.
[Nexus S General] jdizzle316:
Thanks for the advice guys, I really do like this rom, I'm going to flash it again after work tonight...
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
Do a full wipe before flashing...it's a cure all

Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S General] sigaiser:
Great review of Pete's ROM on Android Central today...
[Nexus S General] jdizzle316:
So when u suggest i do a full wipe, do you mean flash back to stock, root, then flash....or do you mean wipe dalvik and cache....thanks again....pretty new to flashing roms
[Nexus S General] Omen87:
He means make a back up, wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache, then install Pete's rom.
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
When you're flashing roms, a full wipe / clean install means to do a factory reset and format /system before installing.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
Can anyone confirm that your able to pair to a Bluetooth handset and its working.?
[Nexus S General] strung:
i can i'm on the 8/13 build
[Nexus S General] sigaiser:
I've been running the last three versions and use Bluetooth connected to my Jeep radio everyday. It connects, syncs contacts, makes/receives calls and streams music just fine.

May be a hardware issue.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
Is there any where to get roam control for free?
[Nexus S General] kijp15:
You'd have to pay for it, unless they've made a lite version of roam control.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
how do you sync contacts with facebook?
[Nexus S General] kijp15:
Have you tried the method by du5t3 in the Nexus S section? I haven't tried it before, but he made a method for sync'ing contacts for Facebook.

EDIT: nevermind, the link has been removed in his thread.
[Nexus S General] mntbkr:
You need the facebook app, then go to settings-accounts and sync settings-add account.
[Nexus S General] amarrero83:
There is a sync facebook app. I can't find it in the market anymore but I think I can upload a copy from my phone

Update I found it. They changed the name to friend sync.
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
Pete's ROM will sync Facebook with contacts once you install Facebook for Android from the market.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
Is there a way to get pictures to sync and not just profiles?
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
Does anyone use DSP Manager? I can't get it to install with this ROM :-(
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
If you select sync all it does update the photos. However if your contact already had a photo you need to remove it to get it to pull the Facebook photo.
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
Here's DSPManager pulled from latest CM Nightly.. Hope it works

LINK
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
I have the current version it just won't install with this ROM; at least not for me.

I tried this one too, same results. Thanks though.

Edit: figured it out and have it working now.
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
So I ported a theme for this ROM (tested on 8_19). JBabey originally made this theme for CM7 on the EVO, when I saw it I asked him if it was ok if I ported it to SalavageMod (EVO) and now here. I want to add more to it like custom dialer and transparent drop down notification bar but just wanted to get this out there in case anyone wanted to flash something ;)

Again, I just ported it for this ROM so far. All credit goes to JBabey for the theme and Pete for the ROM!

PICS:

[Nexus S General] tony1208:
Looks great thanks for the port
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
Thanks! If you downloaded, please re-download. I just updated the same link
[Nexus S General] DammitCubs:
Looks Great. Can we do something about the Gmail icon? Maybe the Red and White logo icon?
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
yea no prob, I'll keep it in mind for next update. There's a couple things I want to change, including more colored items for LauncherPro, ADW, etc
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
Only a few of my contacts synced to Facebook. Is there a way to manually choose the profile I want my contact to be synced with?
[Nexus S General] cc82:
Lockscreen music controls

Is there any way to get lockscreen music controls working? I can't get them for Google Music or Pandora.
[Nexus S General] tunx:
I just flashed the latest build, cant seem to update - profile or PRL ? Didnt really try this in the previous builds, so not sure if this is build specific ?
[Nexus S General] Csquared:
I had no problems updating both. Make sure you are not attached to an airave.
[Nexus S General] tunx:
I am not. Infact, I was indoors when the stupid text messages started acting up AGAIN .Couldnt update, so went outside with full bars ... still failed to update:confused:
[Nexus S General] xjreyes:
Love the boot animation.. really cool .. thanks for putting color into this phone.. never understood why having the best screen and colors pop if everything is black grey and green... like the last person said if you we're to add color notifications like Calkulins did in the Evo 4G .. that would be awesome.
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
You know this is not a rom issue. I've had a ton of issues with Text messaging as have two other sprint customers I know in the chicago area.

it's been going on for quite some time.
[Nexus S General] tunx:
Yeah, I know the text messaging is definitely not a rom issue. My concern is not being able to update profile and PRL !
[Nexus S General] DammitCubs:
Do these themes slow down your phone?

Also, I found a bug in the ROM. I don't know if it's just my ROM but if I connect to WIFI. The color of my wifi is white not green. This would indicate that I'm not connected to google services but I am. So I'm confused on why its white. Does anyone else have this issue?

Correction: It turned green. Bug squashed!
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
I've had that one too but it's almost only been downtown...Do you live in the city or the burbs? I can normally update my prl in the burbs. But even that doesn't happen immediately after sprint releases a new prl.
[Nexus S General] s3v3nXDA:
Few options / suggestions

1) Will you be adding the notification toggles, if not.. please do.. the only real thing this rom is missing

2) Under the reboot option, maybe add option for recovery and bootloader?

3) Option to split SMS over 160 characters

4) Defeault bubble txt messages, sort of like the messaging app from MIUI..

and last I just want to thank you for you great work :)
[Nexus S General] hllywd:
This is a great rom. I wonder if it would work on my g-tab...

[Nexus S General] pfer10:
I have been running everything besides MIUI and CM7 the past month or so. I really liked openSoju but they stopped developing that. DevNull looked promising but I had several reboots with it running it for the 3 days that I gave that a shot.

Flashed this last night as I was ready for a change and this looks really promising. Wiped the battery stats on a full charge this morning and going to let it rip!

Good job Pete! I am running at 800mhz as suggested and it looks/feels very good. :D
[Nexus S General] kevlars9:
This rom is great. Thank you!
[Nexus S General] brokentoaster24:
Don't suppose we could get bln support too?

Sent from my Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S General] mntbkr:
I have been testing this for a few weeks now and it's super stable and very fast. Pete told me to run it at 800 and I haven't looked back since. I'm glad he decided to release this to the public because he is a really talented developer. His work on the OG droid is legendary.
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
Most rock solid stable I've used

[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
Hey guys, thanks for all the positive feedback, it really makes it worth all the work it takes. For those who don't know, GPA17 stands for Gingerbread Peter Alfonso, its a series I started for the Droid. This series is a minimalistic ROM that appears stock but has tweaks/features built in. It's for those who want a fast, stable ROM and don't want to worry about bugs and extra things that aren't really needed.

The final version of this ROM (GPA17) will be released alongside my Droid build on my website. If Gingerbread does not have another incremental update (e.g. 2.3.6) then I can begin working on Bugless Beast, which is what most people know me by. Bugless Beast will have more features than the GPA series. Only time will tell how often I can work on it, school is keeping me quite busy.

Somebody mentioned BLN support, I will add it soon, probably after my final exam for Trig class.
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
Good luck on the exam, love the rom

[Nexus S General] snrbobo:
Do u guys leave It on interactive? I set it to 800mhz but was wondering if anyone got better battery life with a other governor
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
I've left it as interactive and at 800 and never got better battery life

Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
I never use any other governor but interactive, its amazing.
[Nexus S General] pfer10:
I left it on interactive and set to 800. Doing great so far. At 2.5hrs with screen on trying to calibrate the battery. Still plenty of juice left.
[Nexus S General] snrbobo:
I'm used to using on demand...butttt interactive seems alot more...well...interactive...lol snappier. Ill ssee how this does.
[Nexus S General] commandoscorch:
How do I re-enable the vibration on the capacative buttons?
[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
Menu > Settings > Sound > Haptic feedback
[Nexus S General] chewbz:
Is it me or does the launcher seems a lot faster then stock. Great Rom!
[Nexus S General] ehiggins:
The notification drop down by dreams forgotten works on mine, you just can't customize what shows up.

Use terminal for now, su "enter" reboot recovery

I use the black mms from theme and apps,.it will let you split but not bubble. If you want bubble use go messenger, hand cent our chomp. They also have option to split messages
[Nexus S General] s3v3nXDA:
I'm having an issue with 3G data with the latest build. I have data enabled, and even data roaming enabled.. but for some odd reason my phone will not get a data connection and when it does get it.. a few minutes later it drops. I'm currently getting 2 bars, but have no active data connection. I'm also using the color mod, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it.
[Nexus S General] dmora01:
Good work!!!! I love it!!!
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
Glad you like it! I'll have some time to make some touch ups tonight and tomorrow so we'll see what I can get done.

[Nexus S General] brandonkahn:
Why doesnt the voicemail work? As in if i hold 1 it shows dialing voicemail but doesnt work... i have to manaully dial my number to get vmail... no biggie jw if theres a fix. also petes kernel attached to latest build(8/19 i believe)... is it best for battery life or do you guys have a suggestion?
[Nexus S General] unomedmen1:
Same here, cant wait for theme chooser to be included
[Nexus S General] type3:
You have to set your number in voice mail settings, settings-call settings-voice mail settings.
[Nexus S General] brandonkahn:
Appreciate it bro

Does restarting the phone or doing a battery pull (changing batteries) reset your homescreen? I noticed all my Widgets and apps were gone after I restarted my phone after changing batteries
[Nexus S General] s3v3nXDA:
I have a huge request, is there any way you could make your color mod work with dreamforgottens power control toggles.. if I use his zip, I lose the 3g and all the status bar icons.. if I use your theme.. I lose the toggles.. thanks in advance
[Nexus S General] fergie716:
I'll take a look into it in a few days, I want to make some other changes to the base for right now
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
Wouldn't it be better and more courteous to Pete if you moved your theme and it's discussion to it's own thread in "Themes and Apps" rather than hijacking his ROM thread?
[Nexus S General] tony1208:
Would be less cluster....
[Nexus S General] jbray4913:
I agree. Pete's ROM is what he wants it to be. If you want to make a theme for it, start a thread where it belongs.
[Nexus S General] mntbkr:
Ripple lock from the market gives you a honeycomb style lock screen and enables music control.

Pete, just seen today that there is finally a working 4g toggle widget available on the market...

Best Rom

This is the best rom ive ever used. Never thought I would see better development than Team Whiskey's on the Samsung Vibrant, but this tops it all. Have been testing for a few days now, going really hard on the rom, heavy heavy usage.. and this beast doesnt even flinch. Great, great Rom Pete :D
[Nexus S General] grifforama:
I posted numerous posts about this. When 4g is idle you are not Connected to the internet. I had this confirmed by Sprint.

Anyone elses alarm broken in the 8-19 build? No matter what i do it always says "alarm silenced after 0 minutes" in the notification bar, and the alarm never goes off.

[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
He's a long time respected developer from the og Droid, he's one of the best and most respected even outside of xda and I feel bad for devs when posts like this come up. It's totally disrespectful.

[Nexus S General] info[]box1:

Agreed.. Pete is a prize to have..

I have no Bluetooth on this ROM, hopefully the next update will change that. Good luck to you all & enjoy xda.
[Nexus S General] Paleryder:
Guys make sure your doing a complete wipe when coming from a different rom, everything its working flawlessly for me.

: P
[Nexus S General] tony1208:
Same here....bt...GPS...ect....all works fine...if not just do a full wipe....
[Nexus S General] Highway 55:
Yeah 8-19 is flawless here as well...

Edit: I have been using this rom since Pete first posted it, just doing dalvik wipes. The only time I did a full wipe was the first time I flashed it. Hands down best rom for ns4g. Thanks Pete!
[Nexus S General] TheBurgh:
Can someone tell me which kernel and govener are best for battery
[Nexus S General] cdbillups:
I'm using Pete's kernel and, iirc, he recommends interactive with a max / min of 800/100.
[Nexus S General] TheBurgh:
Thank You. I will give it a shot
[Nexus S General] amarrero83:
Wow, you guys really get excited. Since this is Pete's thread, if he finds my post"disrespectful" then I will erase it. God Bless
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Trinity TUV11 (on demand)
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
I have tried flashing this ROM 3x, my brother flashed 2x. I'm a firm believer in wiping everything etc for years. I tried kernels (Pete's & Mathkid's) I haven't tried Net's yet on this ROM.

Bluetooth paired but won't connect. Me and my brother is having the same issue, that's what trippy.

Last two things I can do is 1. re-download and flash 2. wait for a update.
[Nexus S General] TheBurgh:
Thanks. I just read to OP regarding the flashing instructions. Have you experienced any difficulty when flashing Trinity over another kernel that isn't stock with the rom?
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Yes. It runs much smoother if you reflash the ROM first.
[Nexus S General] TheBurgh:
Thanks for your input. Give it a try later.
[Nexus S General] Ichiban Rei:
Yea I still have it happening randomly. If its been confirmed by Sprint, its odd that people don't report it more often. Now I'm trying out oxygen 2.2 and of course the issue persists.

I think its awesome that the 4g can be accessed on demand and the battery is hardly impacted by keeping it on all day, as I go 15 hours on battery with moderate use. I hope some more info and a possible fix is in our future.
[Nexus S General] 4redstars:
See I find this strange, when i'm at work i'm on 4g all day and never miss a thing, my phone works as if i'm on 3g constantly

[Nexus S General] jhalle2:
Anyway to remove the Hotspot patch?

BuglessPete, is there anyway to remove the the tethering patch? I have the hotspot feature turned on with sprint and with your ROM i still get kicked to 3g when I turn it on. I am running build 8-19-2011 on my NS4G.

Side note, I have had this phone since it came out and have been through 5 other roms, yours is the smoothest even clocked at 800 it is a winner for me!

**Update If you pay for 4g tehter Pete's Tehter fix will not interfere. I found out Sprint screwed up and future dated my Hotspot feature. Everything is working now on 8-19 release.
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Flash this...
[Nexus S General] Ichiban Rei:
I don't know if the issues are related, but I just started receiving an "International Roaming" alert in my house. I'm in a good voice, 3G 4G reception area. This is also occuring on Oxygen 2.2 and only started happening when I went to try oxygen. I have since used a nandroid back to Pete's but the issue persists.

I just talked to my wife and her Evo on Salvage-Mod is experiencing low to no data. Maybe, this is an issue on Sprint's side.
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
This is an error in the way some ROMs understand roaming types. Cyanogen also misinterprets domestic cdma roaming as international roaming.
[Nexus S General] BuglessPete:
Moved to a different city, started school, started working out, started going out, etc. I enjoy life :)
[Nexus S General] q711179:
Sounds excellent! ROM working great we both enjoying life, gotta love it.
[Nexus S General] Ichiban Rei:
What's to be done? I guess what I can do is flash back to stock and see how it acts. If it still a problem call sprint.
[Nexus S General] PepeJones:
Could someone explain a few benefits this rom has over Cyanogenmod? Or is it just preference?

I have had Cyanogenmod for many years and I read some good reviews about this rom and I was wondering how would work on Nexus S 4G.

Thank you.
[Nexus S General] belvedere:
It's a bit more of a "bare bones" type of ROM, or at least in my opinion. Doesn't have some of the customization options that CM7 has but there's a fair amount of people that could do without some of those thrills and ultimately bloat.

I personally am new to Android (got my Nexus at the end of May coming from a Pre) and prefer a little more bloat. I ran CM7 for a while and then switched over to Kush Deck's ROM, which I would argue is somewhat of a happy medium. I did use Pete's ROM for a day or 2 and liked it, although I wanted custom lock screens, theme chooser, etc.

Overall, ROM preference is just personal opinion. Create backups and flash all the different ones out there if you want.
