[Nexus S General] GeoWatsons:
I found that I9023 and i9020 had the same 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 firmwares.

And my 9023 just got 2.3.6OTA but it failed...

:(
[Nexus S General] challl88:
What do u mean about failed? Dont work? Bricked?
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
After I installed this via OTA download I couldn't switch off NFC until I'd done a second reboot and manually wiped the /cache folder.

All seems fine now though..
[Nexus S General] GeoWatsons:
I don't know which causes that my phone seemed halt at recovery after it notified me to "reboot and update".
[Nexus S General] loveperday:
I think it really works for 9023 .. many people OTA today ...
[Nexus S General] challl88:
yeah you right :) I see this on another czech forum, ty
[Nexus S General] loveperday:
I just want to know how can I get the download link myself .. :-)
[Nexus S General] Tenhi:
Are you rooted with custom recovery? If yes, that's why your update failed...
[Nexus S General] madd0g:
Got the NS yesterday, flashed a custom ROM and today OTA shows up, ugh :D. So my first attempt to unroot and "restock" the phone failed (reusing this script : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17901635#post17901635)

But I read a bit of forums + put my Android experience to the test and put 2.3.6 on my phone anyway.

Here's the post I described the instructions for how to put the phone into stock condition, that the OTA posted in this thread can be easily flashed :

Hope someone might find it handy
[Nexus S General] GeoWatsons:
Yes, I flashed clockworkmod recovery. So I'm waiting for pushing update again.:eek:
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
It will flash right over CWM - there's no assert on recovery. However, if you've changed any single file it does assert on then it will fail. I just flashed it right over a stock, rooted rom with CWM.
[Nexus S General] GeoWatsons:
Thx. I remember I just modified etc/hosts.
[Nexus S General] kktk:
I am reading conflicting reports about the 2.3.6 update.

Can we get confirmation that the tethering works for the AT&T and the T-Mobile versions?

It seems like most of the tethering issues were related to the AT&T model?
[Nexus S General] SupaDupaFly24:
Can't speak for the AT&T version, but tethering still works for the T-Mobile version. And so far I have no issues with the update on the T-Mobile version *knocks on wood*
[Nexus S General] Luxferro:
edit: woops, wrong thread
[Nexus S General] LowQue27:
My Nexus S just got the 2.3.6 update but no Google wallet what gives?
[Nexus S General] kanariya:
i just got it too.

nexus s tmobile
[Nexus S General] LowQue27:
I was hoping it was the Google wallet update.

Link is in my post

[Nexus S General] LowQue27:
And nope it didn't break tethering.
[Nexus S General] corythug:
I've seen google wallet is a sprint thing. NS4G only. This is what I've read, no idea if it's true or not.
[Nexus S General] sirius b:
I can confirm tethering working on mine.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Google wallet is SPRINT only. T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon chose the Isis mobile payment instead of Google's. Blame your carrier for that.
[Nexus S General] speakUrMind:
ya i got ota 2.3.6 too this morning

havent discovered any changes..
[Nexus S General] hogg2500:
Hey guys does your pinch and zoom work in the gallery app since the update?
[Nexus S General] theprodigy85:
Anyone with 2.3.6 with GRK39C radio get this update? Wondering if I need to update manually since it's using the same version number as the initial release...
[Nexus S General] chrisharmful:
The radio seems a lot better now, faster in places where I live in So Cal where it used to suck.
[Nexus S General] life2monkeys:
Was this update only for the i9020T? I have a Canadian i9020A and haven't heard anything yet
[Nexus S General] sirius b:
Mine works fine on the individual images and when expanding albums via pinch to zoom.
[Nexus S General] chrisharmful:
Pinch to zoom works fine for me.
[Nexus S General] crachel:
It looks that way, so far. I have the i9020A and checked in, but got nothing. I've seen noone else claiming to have gotten it either
[Nexus S General] Deeko1:
Sorry in advance for being dozy....

Can I just confirm that this will work on a WW GSM Nexus S? I'm sure I saw a couple of mentions from mainland Europe but nothing from the UK yet...
[Nexus S General] Bls440:
Just updated to 2.3.6 (i9023).

- Can't disable NFC

- Can't disable sign out from Latitude

Edit: Rebooting the phone solved it. It also renamed back "Google Mail" to Gmail.
[Nexus S General] nielsvg:
I cant disable nfc either?
[Nexus S General] Shahpur.Azizpour:
Yep works on European Nexus S. Just made a manual update with update.zip method. Can't see anything new yet...
[Nexus S General] Deeko1:
Thanks - I've just updated mine - looks good so far!
[Nexus S General] Остап:
Me too :confused:
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
You shouldn't see anything new. It is just a bug fix release.
[Nexus S General] royukp1:
Had problems with my update but a quick reset solved the problem instantly.
[Nexus S General] Остап:
Hebrew from input keyboard languages was removed. Why ? :mad:
[Nexus S General] ijama:
Seem gps connection a little bit faster from previous update..

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
It is a U.S. phone update. Hebrew is sparcly used
[Nexus S General] weswilliams55:
Will this update work on a Sprint Nexus S 4G??

i tried to do the update steps but it wasnt working for me using a Nexus S 4G, does anyone know if its only for GSM versions and if there possible will be one for mine in the coming days???
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
The ns4g already got the update for 2.3.7. Why would you want to apply an update for 2.3.6 (for GSM phones)?
[Nexus S General] noobiekins:
Is it worth flashing from CM7 RC1 back to stock 2.3.6?
[Nexus S General] weswilliams55:
2.3.7 update was just for google wallet I didn't read anywhere that it fixed the hotspot tether from the previous updates that broke that function??
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Wow... the nexus s is not the phone for you

BTW hotspot tether isn't broken. The carriers would like you to pay for it.
[Nexus S General] k_myk:
I can confirm, that this update is compatible with European i9023 :) Just received mine at night:)

One thing I've noticed that NFC was on and I couldn't disable it before reboot. After that everything looks just fine:)
[Nexus S General] Остап:
My phone is from New York. And 2.3.4 have had Hebrew in local and in keyboard input
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
That's good that it isn't the issue. Hopefully it will be an easy fix then.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
This update hasn't fixed the missing apps bug. Is there any solution that bug? Most of my apps don't show in the market when I click on my apps.
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
I've never seen that bug? what market version are you running and what have you tried to fix it??
[Nexus S General] LowQue27:
Never seen that bug. Pirated apps normally don't show up in my apps.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
I have version 3.1.5.

I've tried the solutions at the Google Help Forum (can't find the exact link at this moment), but to no avail. The only way I can see my downloaded apps is if I downgrade to the older version and clear cache/data in the Android settings.

Running stock 2.3.6, no ROM or anything. None of my apps are pirated.
[Nexus S General] brokesmack:
Try the market doctor service of titanium backup pro. This solved the same problem of me.
[Nexus S General] Lord_Micron:
Same here... was missing 50+ apps.
[Nexus S General] Shahpur.Azizpour:
Are you using multiple Google accounts? If yes just open the market settings within the app an choose your main Google account. The new market jumps sporadically to secondary Google accounts...
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Seems since the update, my phone doesn't connect to my bluetooth car stereo anymore. Anyone else seeing this problem?
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Oh my, this solved the problem. Wow, thank you.

Is there a way to consolidate all my apps into a single email account? Or would I have to redownload everything while logged into the account I want? That would be tedious. For whatever reason, it's linked to my youtube account, as opposed to my gmail account. Odd.

EDIT: Nope! I spoke too soon. The apps are now gone again, in all accounts. Only 7 or 8 apps consistently show up. They seem to be the ones that were paid apps.

Frustrating.
[Nexus S General] skrogmann:
What's about battery live? It seems that it is much more worse. Over night i loose 15% and before the update 5-7% only. Full charged before.

Can somebody else confirm that?
[Nexus S General] mysoulisfat:
What version radio are you using? A new one came out for my rooted Evo 4g within the past month flashed it and my extended 2150 mah battery that usually runs on wifi and a few phone calls normally lasts me a good 10-12 hours give or take.

Since yesterday I have been in the same battery not.charged since the flash and it is only 50% drained off of using it for about 19 hours.

Search xda for latest radio and pri version for your device.

~Running Evolved Director's Cut 7/7/11
[Nexus S General] skrogmann:
yes, a new radio comes with the update on my nexus. It has now the version i9023XXKF1.
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Now that you mention it, mine is noticeably worse after the update as well. Usually can get by 16-20 hours on a charge. It's been off the charger for nine and a half hours and it's at 19% already.
[Nexus S General] madd0g:
You can't judge battery life in 1 day after a system flash. Give it a week and empty it out till 1% then full recharge.
[Nexus S General] mastiff78:
Not sure if anyone else has this problem yet. My phone now reboots by itself. It has happened twice so far in two days since the update.

There is constant data disconnect as well. Not sure if its because of the update or my carrier's network issue.

Other than that, I haven't noticed any change yet.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
I'm getting a lot of data disconnects as well, at places where I typically have service.
[Nexus S General] axellink:
I have noticed my battery life is a lot worst. Like rapidly dropping down. I have completely let the battery drain and will charge it till it's full and see how it fairs tomorrow. Any one else experienced the same issue?
[Nexus S General] joalo:
I do..sadly battery life dropped significantly..
[Nexus S General] philipdeane:
I'm suffering with random reboots since updating to 2.3.6. 1 each day so far since Tuesday.

I'm not a power user, but I've never had this occur before.
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
I've had no problems with 2.3.6 which I know doesn't help you guys but thought I's share no the less.....
[Nexus S General] LowQue27:
I'm also in the no problems camp. I will give it a full week before I comment on signal and battery life.
[Nexus S General] bocaj.jb:
Just got my ota, but I keep hearing it breaks tethering ..is this true? I don't want to install if that is the case!
[Nexus S General] moropazzo96:
The kernel for overclock at android 2.3.6 is aviable? Thanks..
[Nexus S General] onmyouji:
Try to check whether NFC is enabled or not.

In my case, the NFC setting on my phone was automatically enabled after updating to 2.3.6.
[Nexus S General] macca118:
I updated last night and so far today I have seen the phone reboot 4 times and the battery life is definitely worse. Android system is the biggest user of battery life at 30%. In the past it has always been 'display' using the most.
[Nexus S General] macca118:
Also, I turned NFC off, so that is not the cause.
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
gave it a week. still crappy :P

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------

My apps will disappear whenever I click the notification that I have upgrades to apps available. I fix it by clearing the data on the market app in settings. I have learned not to click that notification anymore. If I go into the market normally it doesn't do it.
[Nexus S General] splat matt:
So with this update is the Sprint Nexus S 4G signal and slow data problems resolved? I'm thinking of going back to the NS4G from my EVO 3D.
[Nexus S General] Evan_TechBamboo:
Google Wallet is only for the Sprint Nexus S 4G. No other version has Wallet. Sorry...

Sent from my Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S General] Braneless:
Just received my NS4G yesterday and ota'd to 2.3.7

Shopper and Wallet are included but I can't comment on reception or data speed since it's my first full day of usage. Everything seems comparable to my Evo 4g, but I noticed my signal indicator shows more yellow than the Evo did. The Evo was in the green nearly all day while in the office.
[Nexus S General] YourMainDude:
Umm no its not... Google Will Push Out Wallet To Other Phones Soon. I.read the article
[Nexus S General] YourMainDude:
For now... but its for all Nexus S Phones

*phew* finally got something that worked well enough to start sharing :) I think I might be the first person to source-build an EH09 kernel? If that's accurate, wow. Hope it works OK, I stole more than one thing from the I9000 to get this beastie running.

Anyway, as long as everyone understands it's not of the utmost quality and is bound to have unknown glitches in it, I hope it comes in handy for ya :D I want to go back to the Froyo GeeWiz for a bit to bring that up to date and make good on some promises I've made, but I'll be back to GB soon!!

Oh, and if anyone can get that stupid Music Player to switch tracks manually without locking up, PLEASE let me know how you did that :rolleyes: I'm starting to think I need to bring the Froyo player forward to see if it works in GB.
[Fascinate Android Development] JJHunterx:
You mention EC10 modem...Did you mean EC09?

If there is a EC10 modem, can you link it?
[Fascinate Android Development] lord dredd:
Thanks for the hard work DJ :)

how about the in call volume in this dear ?

EC10 was mesmerize froyo radio
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
iirc that wasnt compatible with the verizon fascinate...eb01,ec01,ed01,ed03,ed04,ed05,ec09 are the froyo/gb that are (i might be forgetting one)

What battery meter does this use? It would be awesome if you could use the same sbrissen meter you do in GeeWiz 1.1.

I tried from a clean odined ED05, from Gee Wiz 1.1, and from CM7, and a couple versions of CWM...
[Fascinate Android Development] laureanop:
If you're coming from cm7 you have to re partition your phone in odin with the atlas pit file. Then odin ccampos PWGB 2. 0. Let it fully load, then go on and install this one.

Make sure your download is not corrupt!.

Don't forget to wipe dalvik, cache partition between roms if you're using cwm

That did it, thanks! I hadn't been going to powerwash previously.
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
Stock for now, there are more important things broken in here - LOL. I'm checking out the EI20 leak to see how much of that I can incorporate to try and fix some of the bad things.

If this ROM ever works right, I will absolutely include a spiffy battery meter of some kind by default for ya :)
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
from what i understand ei20 isnt for the mez/showcase...its for some carrier in india and is more or less useless :o
[Fascinate Android Development] poetics:
Thanks again! So far this is super smooth and stable. Way more so than even the latest cm7 builds.
[Fascinate Android Development] rjcormier:
I just wanted to chime in a confirmation...barnacle works ad-hoc because I use it with this rom. The vzw hotspot appear is a no go though. I use barnacle for my kids ipods and our tablets.

Hey djp thought I'd mention you received more than a few honorable mentions in the TSM ROM thread. Congrats!
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
yes just make sure repartition is checked.
[Fascinate Android Development] Wolfkmann:
Has development on this ROM ceased. I prefer this to the other gb roms, it works best for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
Nope. Not dead yet, it just looks and feels that way.

I've been killed with real work over the past few weeks and honestly haven't been able to do anything at all with my phone other than use it (works pretty good overall!).

I am about to embark on a 6 day deployment to Missouri Friday morning that marks what I hope is the end of this horrible project and lets me get back to doing the things I want to do! I have spent what free time I've had upgrading and cleaning up my development environment, redid my whole laptop from scratch, adjusted for Android 2.3.5 source being available to us again, things like that.

I'm bringing my laptop and my play phone with me to MO and have all the stuff I need working again to keep going. I am woefully behind on developments with the latest and greatest from everyone else, but I really am hoping to catch up and become active again during the next 7-10 days.

All I can do is apologize and let you guys know I'm not dead :)
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
good to hear from ya :)
[Fascinate Android Development] AmanteNJ:
Does anybody else having a problem with the speaker phone? the other end can not hear me when i press the speaker
[Fascinate Android Development] AuroEdge:
Yes on the speaker issue
[Fascinate Android Development] thedoman:
Does the gps work reliably on this rom generally speaking ?
[Fascinate Android Development] AuroEdge:
Yes it is quite accurate.
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
I think it works pretty well myself. I used ccampos784's GPS setup, which for the most part provides a really fast and reliable lock. Inside and cloudy days ... hit and miss, the GPS on the Fascinate is just not that great, I don't think software can solve all of it's problems. It's easily the

worst

GPS on any smartphone I've personally owned.

I am of the opinion that the GPS is working as well as it possibly can, and we can all thank ccampos784 for that :) Maybe add "GPS Status and Toolbox" from the Market, I like that app a lot, and when the GPS is funky a quick "Reset AGPS State" from that app will always solve it for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
Quick question for you guys ... I am working on this ROM/Kernel again, and am trying to have a good solution for the battery recharge issue as my new feature for the next version. Would you prefer to see it recharge again automatically at 95% or 90%? I think 90% is better for the battery, but .. from my experience I'm usually not far from 90% by the time I wake up, so I think 95% is what most people would want.

I have to include the % in the equation to avoid a problem with sudden voltage drops. It's unfortunate since that value can get out of whack over time, but this whole stupid problem seems so simple to fix yet it's being a pain regardless.

As soon as I get this to work at least partially well, I'll post an experimental kernel. All my ROM changes so far over what's been posted are just updates available from the Market. I'm also looking into the random screen on issues, but like everyone else it's a pretty big mystery to me too.

After using GeeWiz 2.1 exclusively since the last update myself, my biggest beefs are:

> Battery disconnects after full and discharges until unplugged/plugged in

> Touchscreen locking up (turn off and back on a couple times fixes it)

> Random screen on events

Otherwise, I have been very pleased overall. I know it hasn't met everyone's expectations and I've been MIA for a long time. My current plan of attack is an experimental KERNEL update for Gingerbread, then go back to Froyo and update everything (including the 2.2 based recovery), then come back and update everything on the Gingerbread ROM.

(Waiting around for the battery to charge and then discharge 5% or so is really really boring LOL)
[Fascinate Android Development] sfd0124:
I appreciate the work you have done on this. I use Gee Wiz 2.1 as my base to flash TSM over. I keep your kernal as well. Prior to that the froyo version is one of the most reliable and stable roms I've tried
[Fascinate Android Development] AuroEdge:
I think with the recharge issue the most important issue would be so that the battery doesn't get recharged too often. No more than once an hour? 90% might be best then
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
I got it working :D I have to clean up all the debug messages I put into the driver and I think I can do the same change for other "disconnect" reasons like overheating, so when I get back to the hotel tonight after work (probably a little late, sorry) I can upload a kernel for you guys.

I'll upload two .. one for 95% and one for 90%. I don't want to have multiple versions each time, so at some point I will arbitrarily choose one method and look into making it configurable through init.d or something.

It was really nice to wake up to a 98% battery instead of 87% today!!
