When I type about:debug in the browser, and go into the Debugging menu is the "HW Accerlation" (or something) point unmarked. If I select this, the browser crashes.

So, is the hardware accerlation in the browser not activated?
[Nexus S Android Development] DevPhone1337:
No, the SDK has no hardware acceleration libraries.
[Nexus S Android Development] Eclair~:
Is that so? I remember everyone saying that it was hardware accelerated.

If an ICS SDK port is this smooth without hardware acceleration, then I have high hopes for the real deal.
[Nexus S Android Development] sickzz:
Yes, I hope so too. All menus run very smooth, but the browser is still laggy as hell. Okay, perhaps better than the stock-browser in Gingerbread, but it doesn't run so smooth like an Opera Mobile browser or an Safari-Browser on the iPhone.
[Nexus S Android Development] DevPhone1337:
Reenactment of actual events, conversation between myself and Romain Guy, a software engineer at Google who works on Android.

Romain-	ICS isn't out :)

Me-	you'd be surprised how nice the SDK port i'm using is

Romain-	I also know what it doesn't have :)

Romain-	the SDK doesn't have the hardware acceleration library for starters

End.

So there you have it. I, too, have high hopes for the real deal. For an SDK port it's really quite smooth, but it's certainly not hardware accelerated.
[Nexus S Android Development] anirudh.pullela:
That means we haven't seen the true potential of the nexus s on ICS yet. Wow. The SDK itself is pretty smooth and snappy.

On Beta 8:

I am getting 3G disconnects at random while browsing the web, mostly towards the end of loading a page.

Am I the only one?
[Nexus S Android Development] sickzz:
No, I thought It's a normal bug. It's realy annoying, It's one of the main-reasons, that I'm went back to stock.
[Nexus S Android Development] uberamd:
I got the same thing. After about 3 or 4 pages it dropped 3G for about 10 seconds or so.
[Nexus S Android Development] liorry:
Same.. but this happened on all ICS SDK beta ROMs.

The combo ROM has more features but it's less stable and the Market isn't working, even after deleting the phonesky.apk file and adding the right vending.apk.

i can't manage to install it, using root explorer : when i try to paste the vending.apk in system/app folder, i have the message "read only can't be moved......i guess there's something i didn't got.....

[Nexus S Android Development] denimjunkie82:
That could have something to do with it. I'm using the default ATT APN from this ROM:

Name: ATT

APN: wap.cingular

proxy: not set

port: not set

username: WAP@CINGULARGRPS.COM

password: not set

server: not set

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

mms proxy: wireless.cingular.com

mms port: 80

mcc: 310

mnc: 410

authentication type: default,supl,mss

apn protocol: IPv4

Does this look correct? Does anyone know good APN settings for ATT? I can't seem to find any useful info from a google search.

You could try LCD Density.

change in it build.prop that's located in system directory

and it works but i can't goto the Market home screen

just use market 3.1.5.

and to fix the superuser fc and to use titanium backup. install busybox and try downgrading the supeuser app if it still gives you fc :)
