I also experienced this too.

I just flashed this rom and would like to calibrate my battery, so I used up to 0%. When I plugged in my charger, nothing happened (Normally there would be a large battery icon in the center of screen showing the process) but the 4 buttons led were on. I had to pull out the battery to get the charging to work.

I just changed from Oxygen to this rom and not yet tested so much, maybe I need few days to test, but I like the font so much. Thanks for this nice rom! :)

[Nexus S Android Development] caleb1783:
great news! how can u improve something thats already so great?

cheers! workin towards perfection!

[Nexus S Android Development] MarkVis:
i can improve it once the 2g/3g toggle is working.

which is in the next release. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Lowroad:
excellent :D

Btw, could you make the status bar transparent?

I use the Meizu theme, and without the transparency the theme suffers from graphic "echo's". For example, if i pull down the notifications bar, the date comes up in the top left. Once it pull it up again the date sloooowly fades away. It does this even when there is another icon taking its place. Dont know why this is :mad:

[Nexus S Android Development] ho0o0o11111:
Just downloaded and tried...it seems...no market inside?

I tried to install other slideloaded market apk but all not working.

As 2G/3G toggle bug has been fixed this version must be a good rom I think.

Please fix the market issue... Thanks :D

EDIT: I solved the problem by flashing the gapp zip pack in CM7 page. XD
[Nexus S Android Development] Lowroad:

9.20

Got the reboot loops (1st after 7 days). but phone was able to turn on/off the screen with the power button. had to pull the battery, buttons were off. (good thing it crashed 1hour after my alarm rang)

Just updated to 9.28a and will report back if this happens again.

I am not running any crazy app, just bln Pro, gmail, text, phone, minimal browsing, no data 99% of the time, no gaming, almost no music... My battery usually last for 3+days.

Thanks for your work
[Nexus S Android Development] CONTACTMC:
Do I need to wipe anything when updating with this? Thanks.
[Nexus S Android Development] graphreak:
Cache & Dalvik Cache only- if you are updating from a previous NexusMV as OP mentions.

From another devs ROM, a complete wipe is advisable- always, for best results.

Been running 9.28 all day (just saw 9.28a and I'm too lazy to reflash since I already flashed gapps) and no problems at all. Also, I started using a UV kernel and got pretty amazing battery life so far; like a 3% drop in 6 hoursish
[Nexus S Android Development] CONTACTMC:
This seems so much faster than 9.20, smoother as well :D
[Nexus S Android Development] ho0o0o11111:
After several hour test I found this rom quite stable and snappy.

No serious performance problem is found. ;)

Thank you~~:)

Just one problem, as someone mentioned already, for SetCPU's profile, If I set to (display off, 100-200), it won't turn on again. (sleep to death)

But if I set to 100-400, no problem with the display off profile.

I set the CPU to 800 and -40mv, rebooted the phone and let it standby during my sleep. It drained 20% for my 6.5hrs sleep. I think it is too much.

(no wifi, no 3G, no data, no GPS, no bluetooth, no SetCPU display off profile, autostarts to disable unnecessary app, no widget at all, launcher is zeam)

After checking with system panel and SetCPU, it seems the CPU kept running at 100% (800) almost all the time during my sleep...:(

I am not sure whether this is normal, but with 9.20 I used Trinity TEUV kernel, even without SetCPU profile I didn't face this issue at all.:o

Just tried with Tasker, it works. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] MarkVis:
hmm. check your battery usage and see what app killed your battery. also idk if spareparts still works with gb but look at that too if you can...

its also possible that something went wrong in the processes that made the cpu run at 800mhz the whole time. a normal reboot should be able to fix that problem.
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
Running this + UV kernel =infinite battery life. Ahhhhh how good it feels to not have to plug the damn thing in every night.

[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
how fast does it take to switch from 2G to 3G? instant? 5 seconds? 30 secs? I'm on a diff ROM at the moment and I need to do a full wipe and take time to test myself...

I just checked with Spare parts and it seems nothing running strangely...

Weird...

I will try to wipe the data to see...

(I have titanium backup pro :D)

I just set up a profile to test. it takes around 3-4 seconds for me.

No, I didn't try that.

[Nexus S Android Development] markywylder:
Just a thought , if I can remember correctly isn't there a part in mathkid's OP for his kernel thread that says to not use SetCPU profiles as it will cause undesired battery behaviour?

Quote:

**BOTH THESE ZIPS BOOT UP AT 1 Ghz. If you use setcpu to oc, DO NOT USE PROFILES. It will have a negative effect on battery life!**
[Nexus S Android Development] MarkVis:
eh... maybe coz i dont have an NS4G. :D

i didnt think of my theme as fantastic,

maybe just a step up from the stock CM7. :p

shouldnt take that long.

on my phone takes around 5-10 sec to switch with the toggle.
[Nexus S Android Development] MarkVis:
+1

using profiles arent recommended.

what mathkid said. ^^^
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Maybe it's because I'm using the 850/1900 NAM Nexus, but when I use the Toggle, it switches to 2G properly, but fails to resume to 3G...
[Nexus S Android Development] X1111:
first thank you Mark for the great job

no problem with new release and everything seems good until now

and that's good you dont have NS4G :p

btw, you should change the framework-res.apk in popupAnim flashable zip for every new versions or include it in next versions :D

Help, guys - I can't see to get this to boot?

I've been running nightlies CM7 for a while, and fancied a fettled ROM.

Just Titanium Backup'd and CWR backup'd my stuff, done full wipe (data, cache, dalvik, battery stats) and flashed the dalvik wiper followed by NexusMV9.28a.zip

The phone boots up, I get the Green Android for about 2 seconds, it then reboots and sticks on the Nexus S animation. I've left it 15+ minutes, and still nothing.

Back into Recovery, wipe wipe wipe (until I'm red-raw), flash again, same result. Sometimes I don't even get to the robot, it reboots whilst on the animation, then just sticks on the 2nd boot.

Is there a link to NexusMV9.28 (non-a) I could try? Then maybe flash -a over the top?

Thanks!

(Yes, normal 9020i -S UK variant)

Edit: Just re-downloaded the ZIP, just to make sure... Got the Green Robot, freezes, reboots. Green robot (so actually booted 2nd time, this time!), freezes, reboots.. Now stuck on pulsating Nexus animation :(
[Nexus S Android Development] graphreak:
In case you are still having the issue, you may possibly be running an older version of CWM recovery?

Try this-

1. flash correct version of the latest CWM recovery for your NS then

2. wipe data/factory reset

3. wipe Dalvik Cache

4. wipe cache

5. wipe Battery stats and additionally,

6. format system too then

7. flash ROM.

Hope that helps.
[Nexus S Android Development] AndiTails:

[Nexus S Android Development] MarkVis:
I don't know why you see the android logo. When you reboot from the recovery after flashing the Rom you should see google logo then the nexus boot animation.

Android robot shouldnt show up unless you go to bootloader.

Strange how my S doesn't like the ROM's kernel...

I'm up for some ultimate battery life trials - which kernels are you running?

I've UV'd Netarchy by 25mV across the board to try that tomorrow. See how we do.... ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
I'm just running the stock TEUV kernel but I'd rather do a trial on a day that I'm not working so I don't have to turn up the brightness on my display so that I can see it while I'm out on my breaks :P
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
So I'm guessing nobody even uses Matr1x then? Lol
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
I have your kernel on my Wife's phone because she likes to play a lot of games and I find its performance to battery life ratio is much better than the TEUV kernel. I, however, use my phone for primarily browsing news and forums which doesn't require a lot of graphical performance so I prefer to run TEUV (at least for the moment. I do, however, have your kernel on my SD card so when I run into another android phanboi I can quick flash it and show off the massive benchmarking rape that subsequently occurs.

Nah nothin against you dude ;)

Don't worry, tis all good
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
Oh I know its nothing against me lol I just know how it feels to have your work be seemingly unused. I just wanted you to know that it is widely used by MV users and I used it up until this release but I've been working more lately and I find that while taking smoke breaks outside in Arizona its pretty hard to read my screen with my preferred brightness so I have to boost it which kills my battery regardless of kernel (that screen eats power like a fat kid eats twinkies; in truckloads) so I switched to the most energy efficient kernel I could find. I've never been too sure of changing voltages myself since too many things can go awry so I just went with the easiest option lol. You're a great dev who deserves credit for his work (which is something xda has never been the best at giving). Please keep up the phenomenal work.

As a side note, I've personally rooted and modified 7 devices, 4 of which I installed custom kernels on. There have only been two kernels I was comfortable putting on other people's devices and that was Netarchy and Matr1x but it seems Netarchy has stopped working on his NS kernels so that leaves your kernel. Also, my mother in law just got a sensation 4g and I'm trying to convince her to root it. If she lets me, your kernel will be going on it because I know it'll be stable.

Collab isn't on 207 or later yet. Yeah I haven't updated my sig, but I flashed from NSCollab (N#203) to use your 9.28a yesterday to try out the Toggle 2G/3g. It switched to 2G before and could not switch back to 3G.

I got it back by doing the *#*#INFO#*#* and selecting USA Band. Shrug. I wonder if this has something to do with the 850/1900 Nexus S....

hmm.. havent tested it on a i9020A but CM7 patch notes didnt say that it doesnt support other nexus s devices. also when i click the toggle status bar to return to 3G, it shows Edge then after 10 sec it goes to 3G or H from E.

question, have you done a full wipe before flashing?

Care to answer following questions?

2. Do you use background data sync?

3. Disabled Brightness?

4. Do you use facebook/twitter/whatsapp.

I get through the day without a problem, but still... i'd like to squeeze every possible juice out of it.

Thanks~!
[Nexus S Android Development] X1111:
First must tell i do DownClock to 800MHz/1170mV ,that's good and phone's fast enogh :cool:

use task killer applications to kill unused app and services ,turn off radio services when they're not in use

1- how can i exactly examine it ?

2- off the background data sync and use "only 2G network" option

3- default Auto Brightness

4- not those but use players and GPS app everyday and other app and WiFi normally

EDIT :

i think the best way for estimate rate of battery drain is at night that we are in sleep mode ;)

in this status and with 6 hours of sleep it consumes less than 2% (maybe 1.5%) and with 7-8 hours 2%
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
ok when people have flat lines for battery it's clear they don't do **** and use wifi... it's almost pointless to show those graphs... people want good life out of a heavy day of 3G use and stuff. Everytime someone shows a phone going 2 days with wifi, it's obvious they barely use their phone.

I've done it with a Milestone and while that's great, regular use on cellular network makes battery look like crap.

@kenvan

When mathkid updates to 10.0 that's when we see an update that prints money and goes to work for you. Also it will make ur boss promote you to president of the company like meg Whitman the new president of HP. :D

@caleb

Idk about great Dev, i'm only a college student who has a spare time. :D

My reason of making themechooser optional is because it and its other components takes like 8mb of space and some people downloading the Rom doesn't have fast internet speeds. 8mb doesn't look much but i also take some other apps off stock CM7 to make the zip file size smaller. If I don't trim CM7 + gapps our file size would be at least 110mb instead of around 95mb. Also I like fast boot speeds so less apps running on boot the faster the boot is. :D
