i still don't understand why VERIZON, the least open carrier, is getting it... hell, didn't they remove google search on their phones??? and replace it with bing?? WTH google?
[Nexus S General] knjigo:
Hey guys can you tell me how this ics works if you compare this with gingerbread. Is it faster? Is browser faster?
[Nexus S General] Esteway.619:
Well you got to understand that this ics rom is ported over from a sdk emulator and all gingerbread roms are from actual source. But for me it runs really good and I don't get freezes or random reboot like I do on so gb roms. Super solid and pretty darn snappy if u ask me. What u could is do a back up of your current setup and flash this so you can see for your self. :)
[Nexus S General] knjigo:
OK thanks for info. Well maybe I'm gonna flash this, or maybe I wait a few weeks for official ics.
[Nexus S General] NexusS4gFreak:
is this newer than when it first was released
[Nexus S General] ogbreds:
In 3.2 just about everything is working.
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Do we need to do a complete wipe when installing version 3.2 on top of the intitial ICS ROM release
[Nexus S General] batting1000:
Yes.

Btw, 3.2 has been out for days now.
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
How do we even know which one we have?

Under build number on about phone it doesn't have a number.

NVM I just went ahead and falshed the 3.2 just now. I think I had the initial release anyways.
[Nexus S General] neo_x22000:
So whats working and whats not?...is this worthy of using daily or is it buggy??
[Nexus S General] mikel719:
The only thing i've noticed that don't work are nfc, and

4g. I've been running it for 2 days with no problems.
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Very worthy of daily use. A tad laggy but that's it. The data connection logo in the status bar is a bit buggy. I would like to see the pull down notifications on the lockscreen and face unlock as well.
[Nexus S General] amehdi43:
This is not the SDK port. This is a leak
[Nexus S General] adamcooks:
evidence? Beezy says otherwise
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
This IS a port.
[Nexus S General] intheb0x:
lol @ leak.

not even close.

everything is work from different devs coming together.

ive been running this for awhile now and its great,

can be laggy, battery drain is harsh at times, no nfc/4g.

no kernel support, no voodoo, stuff like that.

all the icons been ported over, its looking more and more like ICS with each release.
[Nexus S General] derekwilkinson:
...

lol...
[Nexus S General] clj575:
Are the icons in here going to be the ones in the official ics release? (phone, message..etc) If so they look like shat. I ran this port for close to a week.... like everything but the icons.
[Nexus S General] Ibleedandroid:
Thanks for all the hard work. I was the first of my friends to have froyo, gingerbread.... and now thanks to your efforts ICS. Thanks again

Why does the GSM nexus s ice cream sandwich rom thread seem more organized and have more development being done... I'm just saying I'm just curious I am very greatful though honestly I'm at the strip club drunk and was just randomly thinking this

cdma gsm user ratio is crazy. learned that with wm & htc.

I can't confirm yea or na concerning who has more dev in matters at hand.

Sent from a Bugless Beast GPA19 Nexus S 4G using xda premium
[Nexus S General] samsonite.ace:
yea +1 on that. GSM ROM dev is over the top. another thing is people are loyal too.

for example, i had the original evo, and switched to NS4g and I feel like there is no development.

if you look at the EVO thread along with EVO 3d thread they are exploding with ROMs and dev out the wazzooooooooo

either way im waiting for the first LTE phone next summer =D
[Nexus S General] kjaved373:
Just a little curious. I tried extracting some apks from the rom to see if it works and tried to install them but it says problem parsing or something like that. Im guessing it's same for all roms, why is that?

[Nexus S General] pewipo123:
same here....i was on htc hero and was running froyo when they said it couldnt be.done.. then GB..wow.....your.right devs basicly are awsome!... besides IF I pay $500.00 for a phone, then damnit i.better be able to do.what i want with it!... thats what the wonderfull people of XDA make possible
[Nexus S General] CHRISTOF24:
This is an amazing from, and much thanks to those of you who cooked it up, I do have some questions though...Why is it that some os ui elements are different from that of the galaxy nexus?. The system applications, phone,calendar,people,etc. are all spot on but the The notification bar is missing the settings shortcut for example, 3g icon looks a but different.and other small but noticable things seem a bit off. Just wondering if there is any explanation? Once again I really do appreciate this ROM but am a bit curious;)
[Nexus S General] samsonite.ace:
this is bc beezy has to use some framework for the status bar and other things... if uve noticed when roaming the signal bar actually turns into the old gingerbread green icons.

just minor things tho that should be different and fixed in the update.

he also told me that this is an older dump/version of ICS than the one on the GN

you also have to keep in mind that this is a WIP and will be much better once we have a complete dump!
[Nexus S General] CHRISTOF24:
Cool thanks a lot for getting back to me =)
[Nexus S General] genaro12543:
The difference is the evo has sense over android so you have devs making roms that take off sense that are aosp based you have roms that are sense based that hide sense as much as possible and then you have roms that have sense but is just cleaned up to run better. Not to mention alot of roms are similar just themed different.

On the nexus you have aosp and then you have aosp too. You have clean aosp and you have aosp with extra features. Also there are other roms out that aren't even on xda like oxygen which is an excellent rom and there's the carbon rom based off of oxygen on rootzwiki.

Just cuz our development section isn't clogged up doesn't mean there's no development for the ns4g. Keep in mind too the roms we have are always more likely to be quality roms as opposed to the evo where you get alot of betas and stuff :]
[Nexus S General] pewipo123:
one thing you have to remeber....Alot of other phones are getting more attention because they are OLDER and if not, they are limited on functions....The purpose of having more attention to these devices is to make them FASTER, AND to have more functions......

take the ns4g....its fast as hell and already comes with GB...most other devices ( not all ) are slower and laggy... more attention is needed to make these phones more enjoyable and faster., not to mention developing ways for.theese devices to run FROYO, GB, and some even ICS....

alot of us are used to having a 1ghz phone overclocked to 1.4+.. But look at some.other devices that are 500mhz or 768mhz.... all sorts of devs finding ways to make them do what our phone ALREADY does.... make sence?

i believe.once .miui and.ICS get 4g,.... things will take off....unless somebody desires SENCE and wants to.port over a evo rom....lol
[Nexus S General] Byrd42:
Much love to beezy and whoever else helped. This is dope.
[Nexus S General] Byrd42:
Anybody else's signal bar tiny?
[Nexus S General] tailsthecat3:
No.
[Nexus S General] samsonite.ace:
yea beezy told me it is goin to only look low, that doesnt mean you actually have bad service. will be updated in next release.

---------- Post added at 11:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 PM ----------

well i must say, the dev section over here is very clean, but over there, you just have alot more variety bc you have options of sense. its very hard to dev for the sense roms bc they have htc drivers not the samsung ones, to find and place the right ones where they need to be is a huge issue

and personally i do like the dev, but htc puts a better phone out there hardware wise imo

=D not arguing just telling my opinion tho!
[Nexus S General] jaestreetss:
could not have said it better myself
[Nexus S General] Maximus2012:
I was actually running a ICS port from Youtube user: Zedomax

The Port however is a bit laggy the lock screen wasnt working nor UI Sounds and isnt stable as a daily driver

Check his site NexusShacks.com for the Link to the file

I then flashed Drew Garrens Beta 4 WS4IS ROM and its missing UI Design on the Notification Pulldown, The Data signals overlap eachother and the Camera doesnt render correctly especially in panoramic view
[Nexus S General] Maximus2012:
My experience with ICS on the Nexus was like this

Initially it was laggy until i tweaked the performance on CPU and that seemed to fix those issues

Still was experiencing frequent FCs with various Apps especially with handcent which I dont use since I use the stock messaging app. Every-time i would get a new message i would get a FC on Handcent

Also experience frequent Reboots mainly when transitioning in the app drawer

Titanium back up worked for the most part except that during a batch it would occasionally Hang causing me to have to reboot the phone and then finish restoring the rest of the apps( happened a few times)

3G worked fine once i manually input the APN info

(I'm usually on Wifi most of the time FYI)

The camera worked well

Now Drew Garrens ROM i played with for a few minutes notice the camera app didn't work

The notification Pull down was missing design features e.g.: Contained the circle but was missing the lines that go from left to right

The Lock screen however did work and so did the UI Audio

The Data Signals Overlap which doesn't make for an aestetichally pleasing experience

I see mentions of a beta4? Where is this?
[Nexus S General] donsh00tmesanta:
Version 3.2 (of 4.0 sdk port by beezy) so far is stable and I find myself not using the usual apps i would use in gingerbread. I havent needed to use every feature but its good as daily driver. No major problems to report and that developer option in settings is a godsend. Will that be included in final official rom?

Ain't gonna happen check the op for a link to the original thread

Edit : apparently the op posted a link to the actual download which he's not supposed to do from my understanding (beezys request). So there you go that link is the download to the best version out cuz it includes root and the icons fonts and lockscreen so its a more complete build.

The link is right there I can't believe you wasted so much time asking for the link you coulda had it flashed and ready by now if you just clicked to go the first page where dl links are usually :]

I'm in the same boat; I haven't been this excited for a software update in a long time, but I almost feel like I don't want to spoil the experience with an SDK port. I know it's silly, but living vicariously through those posting here is keeping me sated until the official ROM comes out.

ICS looks like it's a major leap forward in innovation, though.

It seems that every time you flash a new Rom it registers it with Google music as a new device. You can only register eight devices. Go to the app on your PC and click the settings gear in top right. If you have seven nexus s's registered, just unregister them all and log back into music.
[Nexus S General] treezy26:
I haven't had any of these issues regarding music beta or market. But i did notice the market that came with the rom was old. I have the lastest which is 3.20 & music is 4.0.0. I don't use Google+(2.0.0) since I could care less (no offense lol)...
