Looking forward to this. Well done :)
[Nexus S Android Development] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
So is this for the Nexus S or Nexus S 4G? Because Beezy only did a S4G port?
[Nexus S Android Development] HAKA:
this is Nexus S. But the progress will go hand in hand.
[Nexus S Android Development] Caballero777:
Thanks bro i will follow this and wait till i see the magic you guys are going to create. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Dukemineralz:
Exciting to see this …
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
Probably won't be any magic for some time.

Remember, it's an SDK port.
[Nexus S Android Development] iaio72:
Niceee!

I have TO work; this weekend..:))
[Nexus S Android Development] thegod2012:
Good luck
[Nexus S Android Development] brrip:
Sounds good. If nexus one is getting one, we may as well too :D
[Nexus S Android Development] ka24e:
I really dont see the point of this. This is a "port" which will probably not function correctly for quite some time... if ever.

With ICS coming soon natively, I think this is a waste of time. Sure it's fun to play around with, dont get me wrong, but I'm thinking it will turn out like the Honeycomb port...
[Nexus S Android Development] cdanisor:
why so much work when google already announced they will release 4.0 for nexus s soon.
[Nexus S Android Development] yaronyud:
i tend to agree with you .. but look at it this way -> so does Prime phone was suppose to be out
[Nexus S Android Development] mannas:
This is like a preview of ics for our devices
[Nexus S Android Development] JRECH:
It doesn't matter if if the official is coming or not. Ports (even an SDK) are a cool preview of whats to come. With gingerbread I remember using the evervolv alphas on my evo. To me the alphas are fun.
[Nexus S Android Development] nkhs9412235:
Although Google said it would update, nobody knows when it will update.
[Nexus S Android Development] lvnatic:
Yeah, like 1 month or so...very soon.
[Nexus S Android Development] Ravensysteam:
According to german sources, the Updates are rolling out in December as they want to make the Nexus Prime somewhat special. Nexus S is very likely to be the first device to get the update though.

Greetings

There is a guy in the incredible2 forums that has touch working somewhat on his nexus s
[Nexus S Android Development] Chamb':
Why root ? It already has su binarie.
[Nexus S Android Development] lvnatic:
Can anyone make a custom ROM with root acces and all the stuff? Would be very much apreciatted!
[Nexus S Android Development] HAKA:
As you wish.....but it would take 30 minutes.
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
Mine isn't working either. My wifi was flaky, kept loosing connection but 3G wouldn't work at all.
[Nexus S Android Development] nickert0n:
OP Should edit the post stating that 3G doesnt work for at 3G models or offer a solution.

Please.

This is very frustrating to be so close to using ICS yet so far because of no working radio.
[Nexus S Android Development] kevinngck1:
Data connection doesn't work in Hong Kong too :(

Really need this function
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
I don't know. Don't especially want to read again through the whole thread, but if I recall correctly some people got 3G working fine. That's not my case however, but maybe it's a radio issue? i9020AUCKD1 here.
[Nexus S Android Development] rzaratin:
Any way to help with this 3G issue?
[Nexus S Android Development] Evil_Sadness:
looks nice!!! but unfortunaly ive got no pin, no radio, no wifi and some the setting is not working (display settings)

greets evil
[Nexus S Android Development] kevinngck1:
Hope it will be fixed in the further 30mins :(
[Nexus S Android Development] nickert0n:
Same, i9020AUCKD1, On Telus aswell.

Argh. I want this to work and I am so damn impatient lol
[Nexus S Android Development] t3b4n:
Thanks for the great work!

I just found a pair of things that doesn't work:

- applications can't read my external storage (Music, Gallery...), but the Settings app does.

- the settings button doesn't open anything in the homescreen.

On the other hand... great port! It really feels extremely fast, thank you.
[Nexus S Android Development] nickert0n:
Reboot, that fixed that issue for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
To be exact I'm on Koodo, but they are the same network. :P

Patience is key in this situation. It's only been out for what, 2 days? It's nearly already usable. Can't wait for good ROM makers to play with this.
[Nexus S Android Development] t3b4n:
Already done, but not helped :(
[Nexus S Android Development] HAKA:
In my area there is no 3G.....so it is extremely difficult to fix it...

I am dependent on you guys...

Unmounting/Mounting will fix this...
[Nexus S Android Development] t3b4n:
After a secon reboot, the issue is fixed.

Tha camera is taking pictures in black, white, green and pink colors only :p
[Nexus S Android Development] fineazbro:
download adw launcher.. and use it in stead ..setting will work from there
[Nexus S Android Development] kevinngck1:
LOL

so do you know how to fix the FC after setup an apn??

i want to save a new apn but it FC....Thanks~
[Nexus S Android Development] Evil_Sadness:
okay but what is with entering the pin? i have no connection with the rom
[Nexus S Android Development] fabrizioo2007:
Market,after the first FC,now works great for me...

Now there's the real ICS Launcher,with no Landscape mode and with all the ics transitions!Now the menu button works fine...everything seems stable for now!Excellent!

EDIT:market FC after the second boot...strange
[Nexus S Android Development] mk86:
any updates regarding fast battery drowning or fc on display settings? :)
[Nexus S Android Development] ahqball:
In the last hr or so, the only faults ive found with b8 are;

*market place keeps force closing event after rebooting

*fonts keep reverting back to normal size after changing them to smaller and even smaller

*wallpaper sometimes disappears... long pressing on the main screen to bring up wallpaper menu brings it back

anyone else experience these?
[Nexus S Android Development] 3Shirts:
Oh, GoSMS isn't working for me on b8. I still get just the number
[Nexus S Android Development] Phenomen:
Yes it 's said 'Turning on Wifi.....' and nothing else i will try Beta8
[Nexus S Android Development] l1zart:

[Nexus S Android Development] frandavid100:
Yeah, I'm getting that too. Youtube and Movie Editor keep crashing too and the search widget on top looks real weird. Are you guys getting that too?
[Nexus S Android Development] kptnk:
yes, i noticed exactly the same issues ; i guess this should be slove when Drew will release the full 14 sdk port.....in the mean time, this is a great beta though ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] mk86:
wow okay .. seems like there are a few issues in b8 right now, i will wait for a fix and stay at b6 for the moment :)
[Nexus S Android Development] faizalmzain:
in my case only market force close on me.

i did clean install though

facebook apps cannot fetch news feed though. i'm not sure it's build problem or facebook problem but friendcaster seems fine.
[Nexus S Android Development] frandavid100:
Ditto.

10chars.
[Nexus S Android Development] bdpyo:
damn, Drew is doing overtime pumping these beta's out! i cant keep up!

thanks Drew!!
[Nexus S Android Development] navjot94:
Does this version include face unlock?
[Nexus S Android Development] 3Shirts:
I know, right? I was just settling into b6, went to bed, woke up and b8 was out! :eek:

It's pretty impressive when ROM updates are releasing faster than you can flash them!
[Nexus S Android Development] DariosF:
Market fc and systemui fc also with beta8...
[Nexus S Android Development] bdpyo:
im assuming its gonna be like that till the guy just gives up or the source is released, either way pretty cool of him.
[Nexus S Android Development] jorgeccs:
Market force close !!
[Nexus S Android Development] Otes:
restart phone than fixed it...
[Nexus S Android Development] jorgeccs:
anything like force close
[Nexus S Android Development] ahqball:
restarting the phone actually doesnt fix anything, well... not for me anyway

i actually reverted back to b6 for the time being,

b8 just contained one too many minor aesthetic and functionality bugs for my liking;

the google search box,

the non centered power widget icons,

reverting font sizes,

market crashes,

G+ crashes,

random reboots - 2 within a space of 3 hrs

i personally find b6 to be more stable and provided a much smoother ICS experience with less lag.

plus, i preferred the smaller font and icons ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] Po0yAn:
How to root? Im in the verge of making it my daily rom at least for a few days, but i can't find the link to root file, i think there used to be a link in the first post, now it's gone!
[Nexus S Android Development] stodoe:
i have to say that. with all respect to the dev, this rom cant be use like a daily. its laggy, lot of FC, screen settings doesnt work, new apps like Gmail also. and what purpose is in develope new beta every day? sometimes twice a day. my advice: work on ICS, maybe few days more, but try realese something better than b8. sad to say but im goin back to GB 2.3.6.
[Nexus S Android Development] Deyez:
I've been trying every beta, and corporate email has not worked for me yet. I am running Exchange 2010 though. There were some Active-Sync changes between the versions...so maybe that is the difference.
[Nexus S Android Development] andrewanemic:
You just need to flash superuser from cwm recovery. That's all I had to do. ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] YourMainDude:
Not sure if this was already talked about but I'm still on beta7 . Has anyone noticed the YouTube app loading HQ Vids Alot Faster? maybe Its Just Me O.o

Update: Blah I also just noticed the YouTube app stops playing when in idle mode unlike in GB where ur able to turn off phone and it still plays =\

Handcent force close for me... Can anyone give me the secret for making it work?
[Nexus S Android Development] stevencpoynter:
You understand what this ROM is right? What is the point in CM nightlies then? You are strugglin sir.
[Nexus S Android Development] xjomulkerx:
You dont get this... he is a deverloper, developing on a Developer's webpage... he is not selling or realesing an official ROM, and he needs Testers (us) to help him find the bugs, (not like companies that has their own private testers) so if his work is easier having us testing his rom for him, i know we'll be more than pleased to, and im sure most of us love just flashing all this rom just for fun.

PS: Sorry for my bad english.
[Nexus S Android Development] stevencpoynter:
No need to apologize or reason with these elitist folks who obviously feel entitled to such work as this. I don't see anyone else working with this rom, if drew jumps ship we WILL be stuck with a half baked beta.
[Nexus S Android Development] ale.landra91:
Can somebody explain me and to others how to fix the market fc in beta 8? I need to use it

Thank you
[Nexus S Android Development] dskyers:
thanks you guys for those b-day wishes. But back to this. Woke up and see were on beta 8 lol this guy is not play in. How do u guys like it. Is face unlock working? Or pan camara?
[Nexus S Android Development] YourMainDude:
OK I just flashed beta 8 ... everything works ... YouTube , market ... haven't had a force close yet. The only small issue I have is that the power widget isn't fitting onto the home screen... don't know what went wrong with u guys
[Nexus S Android Development] benseoul:
Hello!

Beta 8 works in french? or there is still "systemui" FC?
[Nexus S Android Development] rreyes0416:
With all the respect to you... this is Beta build... so its no going to the best in the world but it will definitely give you a taste of ICS ... to ME, its been stable enough that Im using it as my daily ROM... for some reason, this build is not working for some people for other reasons like, Not properly doing a WIPE before installing or maybe the version of their Radio etcetera, etcetera... so enjoy the taste and shut up...
[Nexus S Android Development] paperecho:
Using beta 8 now. So far so good. No FC. BUT.....the launcher no longer goes into landscape. Is this a bug or is this what we should expect from a official release down the road? The launcher should have rotation. Most third party launchers do it so why wouldn't this be an option on stock? Come on Google look at what people are doing with your software and improve.
[Nexus S Android Development] wyk126:
the stock launcher cannot change orientation, see the galaxy nexus demo
[Nexus S Android Development] Waza_Be:
For those having issues with the market, try opening it from the widget. Sometimes it help and I succeed to download an app
[Nexus S Android Development] escrivel:
Is there a secret how to fix the market FC?
[Nexus S Android Development] s_piccand:
What I did, was clearing cache and data (Settings->Applications->All apps->Market) and restart my phone. If you still have FC, try to install a free apps from the Market WebSite (https://market.android.com/) to wake up your phone's market apps.

Nope, I tried it but the first FC comes in less than 5 seconds :(
[Nexus S Android Development] paperecho:
Its been going into landscape on the previous betas. I was really excited about it. I know its something small but I am a big fan of a landscape launcher. And the thought of being able to use the stock launcher to do that was a great step forward in my opinion.
[Nexus S Android Development] YourMainDude:
Did u do a full wipe?
[Nexus S Android Development] escrivel:
Yes I did. Also it seemes that my wifi is not connecting
[Nexus S Android Development] YourMainDude:
=\ don't know why some are having this issue ... I haven't tried wifi since I'm not home
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
So far really liking beta 8. I have no FC issues, market works fine. My wifi works fine, I make it use wifi when setting up the phones to get all my apps back the fastest.

I do complete wipes before trying each beta. Never have issues. English language (US)

If others are having issues, perhaps it's your doing something different.
[Nexus S Android Development] svtfmook:
check settings > development

uncheck the kill app as soon as the user leaves option.

---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 AM ----------

i don't even do full wipes and i don't have problems.
[Nexus S Android Development] stevencpoynter:
How are you guys installing this rom? I always do a full format of sys/data/cache, install the rom, boot it up and then let it sit without touching for about ten minutes. I learned from my Vibrant days that this settles a lot of dumb issues. I havent had any wifi or market problems to date.
[Nexus S Android Development] MultiCulti:
Market FC (German AND English)

Display Settings FC

NO Contacts in WhatsApp

:(

Yes, did Full Wipe and evereything ...
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
exactly what I do as well. Let it fully sync before doing anything. Don't even go in the market. don't start rearranging apps. let it sync, then do your stuff.
[Nexus S Android Development] eskamhl:
Very strange issue, seems that the problem is with the market home page because i can search all the apps without any fc when i'm already "in" ( in fact the installation from the web market works ). :confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] stevencpoynter:
These things work for me, I dont use Whatsapp though. Are you formatting everything in recovery or just wiping user data?
[Nexus S Android Development] MultiCulti:
i wipe everything through the recovery :( ...
[Nexus S Android Development] stevencpoynter:
Dont know what to tell you boss. Redownload and follow my method listed above. Its working for me right now lol
[Nexus S Android Development] MultiCulti:
yeah ... i just downloading it again over the computer (first i loaded it with the nexus) ... and will try it again
[Nexus S Android Development] faizalmzain:
whatsapp fix is uninstall the app first then download the APK from whatsapp website and reinstall.

---------- Post added at 10:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

anyone tried to install latest google+ app?

i cannot update, cannot parse package etc.
[Nexus S Android Development] Scream1337s:
About the problem with the market (got it too), could it be our google accounts?

Maybe we don't have permission to see US market with video because we are from europe?
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
Anyone know what the BIP.apk app is in beta 8?

It runs in the background, but I can't see to find an interface to it, or any info on it on the net other then it came from the verizon galaxy nexus dump.

edit: i just noticed an option to tether over bluetooth in beta 8. not that bluetooth works, but i'm not sure if that was in previous builds. maybe the BIP.apk has to do with that?? although the icon looks like a sd card/ or sim card in root explorer...
[Nexus S Android Development] anirudh.pullela:
Could be. My market FC's too and I'm not from the US.
[Nexus S Android Development] cliffe007:
gps

gps works very fine?

anybody tested?
[Nexus S Android Development] Scream1337s:
So I got an update for an app and I can get to my apps page. so no fc there. but when I want to go back to main page, the fc is back. so my idea now is to replace the market 3.2.0 app with the version 3.1.5 from which I know it worked. does anyone have an idea how to do this? apk installation doesn't work...
[Nexus S Android Development] footballpics.info:
.. Market is FC everytime ..

i flashed the rom and wiped everything ..

thats a real problem ..

the rest is working great ..
[Nexus S Android Development] anirudh.pullela:
I deleted the market 3.2 app to do the same thing. Now the older one isnt installing. :/

I used 3.1.3.

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 PM ----------

So now i'm left with no market. I'll just reflash the ROM and get it back though. Unless someone manages to install an older version of market.
[Nexus S Android Development] Reptilez_DK:
I think you should wipe before flashing. :)

Anyone feel free to correct me. :P

These typos was sent from my Nexus S [I9023] :P
[Nexus S Android Development] eskamhl:
The 3.1.5 version of the market works with no problems :D

Just delete phonesky.apk from system/app/ and push the older market apk ( as always, with root explorer or adb ) , then reboot :)
[Nexus S Android Development] touchpro247:
Finally got the new Gmail working w/ beta 8...
[Nexus S Android Development] Scream1337s:

i installed gmail 4.0 .. dont work also ..

the beta 8 is a bit .. ???
[Nexus S Android Development] shockem:
Wipe everything, flash, and allow it to boot. If market fc's go to settings-application-market and clear data as well as cache.

[Nexus S Android Development] daandman:
This happened to me with the 4x1 contacts widget. I ended up going back to b7 for now.
[Nexus S Android Development] eskamhl:
I think it's because those widgets in b8 are 5x2 but the home is 4x4 :p
[Nexus S Android Development] irishrally:
Are you guys formatting system in addition to the usual wipe options?

I've had no problems so far with beta 8, when it started up the launcher had all the widgets and icons setup like when you would get a new install of ICS, power widget, genie widget and clock widget were already there, gallery and settings icons, etc. It even had the little introduction on on to use the app drawer etc.

No issues with market FC. I think gps is still not working but I only held the phone up to the window, haven't been outside yet.

Updated launcher is sweet with animations and properly rendering wallpapers and widgets.

any idea what the problem is?
[Nexus S Android Development] eskamhl:
I have the power widget in the home screen but i can't add another one because the size is wrong in the app drawer.

About the market, i've tried to format boot-system-data-cache and wipe data-cache-dalvik before the flash with no luck, the 3.1.5 apk fix the problem instead :p
[Nexus S Android Development] footballpics.info:
can you post the 3.1.5 apk of the market please?
[Nexus S Android Development] daandman:
Odd... I'm happy with b7 either way, I didn't notice any changes to b8 aside from the introduction when you first start it up & animations flipping through the app drawer.
