[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:
Hello

I have Stock Nexus S i9023

I just followed the guide here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1007782 and ended up with this

I followed the steps, unlocked the phone

But when it came for transfering the SuperUser.zip file.

I rebooted my phone into fastboot and selected "Recovery"

Here is what i get after the Google logo with the UNlock icon.

and after trying to boot it up again, i got the following screen

How should i proceed ?

If i restart the phone, it goes and shows the "Welcome to Nexus S -- Touch the android to begin" screen.

I did not proceed from there and just powered off my phone until i get some help from here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
I had the same problem while I was following a similar guide. Here's the solution:

In Part4, after step 7, instead of booting into "recovery", run the below command:

fastboot flash recovery 3024v3-i9023.img

Then , once you see the recovery flashed confirmation, proceed with Part4 Step 8.

PS: I couldn't see the pics that you posted.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:

I got stuck at Part 4, did not manage to even install Superuser.zip file.

Should i start again from Part 4 ?

I have disconnected the phone from the PC's USB cable. Should i start again at the fastboot screen and insert the usb cable and go to CMS prompt and run fastboot flash recovery 3024v3-i9023.img ?

Here is the fastboot mode screen

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:
I tried to go through the Step 4 again.Here is what i got

C:\nexusroot>adb push su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip /SDCARD/su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip
error: device not found

C:\nexusroot>

What should i do now ?

But my computer is reading the ADB device

Ill try that and report back.

Thanks

EDIT: Part of the steps are in Korean ? Or is the english translated part enough ?

Are there supposed to be links to download in your guide ? If yes, i dont see any.

Guys, im confused... How should i proceed ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r5xscn:
From what I understand from those pictures, you haven't flashed the recovery. Try the step 3 again :D.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
Please use the stock rom from below thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1063664

copy the zip to root of your sdcard (connect to computer and copy)

get into bootloader mode (Vol-Up + Power)

Flash recovery (refer my earlier post)

choose recovery

in the CWM screen choose install zip from sdcard

choose the zip file in first step

install.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:
So i should go with installing the Stock Rom or should i proceed with the Rooting guide ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
If I were you I would do this:

1. Flash CWM recovery (fastboot flash revovery <image_name>.img)

2. Goto Recovery Mode

3. Choose Install zip from SDCard

4. Select the su....zip that you pushed earlier.

5. Install.

6. Reboot.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:
Thanks alot jithin, it worked and the original problem has been solved.

Now i am at the "Welcome to Nexus S" screen with out ant problem.

I flashed it with su--zip file as well.

Got the "Install from SDCARD complete" message and rebooted.

Is that all, now can i start with installing any ROM ? Should i use Rom Manager to isntall new ROMS ? I want to install Bugless Beast ROM.

Should i now go into the Nexus S and setup everything up ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
wow! Good to hear that. Welcome to the ROOTED world :)

You now have a rooted stock Rom. You can install root only apps like Titanium Backup etc..

If you wish to install a custom Rom like CM7, then you will have to follow the above procedure, in this case download the CM7 rom to the root of your sdcard and the follow the steps I gave above. Instead of SU...zip, install the rom.zip.

Let me know how it goes

Edit:

I thought that was Froyo. Why would you want to downgrade from Android 2.x to 1.x?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibn Saeed:
So i follow the exact method as you have outlined here earlier:

1. Flash CWM recovery (fastboot flash revovery <image_name>.img)
2. Goto Recovery Mode
3. Choose Install zip from SDCard
4. Select the su....zip that you pushed earlier.
5. Install.
6. Reboot.

Did i understand you correctly ?

I want to try Bugless Beast first.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
yes instead of su..zip, choose your rom..zip

Bugless bease, is AFAIK Android 1.x which is known as Froyo. Your Nexus S is by default Android 2.3.X which is called Gingerbird. If you put in Bugless Beast, I believe you will be downgrading the OS version.

A good starting guide will be this link

Thanks for pointing that out

How about Matrix or NSCollab, would that be compatible?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithinsarath:
You would benefit from some reading mate... go through the link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1067813

and read through the whole post. Each one would have their own preferences. For instance, I run stock android 2.3.7 on netarchy kernal. read about each ROM and then decide. Compatibility can be found from the ROM's thread in XDA

ungaze data 2sd does not work with boikioy's rom becos its based on se framework!!

try darktremour a2sd :

instructions:

Prequisite-- u need a 512mb ext partition ..(or higher)

Do this before the steps cos tis is d main thing..

Go to recovery --advanced--partition sd card .- ext-512,swap-0..nd once u r done reboot n follow from 1st step. so here are the steps..

1) get darktremour a2sd .zip file from the following link..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715940

2)befre beginning go to setting -- storage and check free internal memory .without a2sd it wil be sumwhr around 150mb ..

3)now put the downloaded .zip file in your sd card ..go to recovery and flash the .zip file after choosing flash file from sd ..

4)reboot phone n check free internl memory ..it wil be the same as before ..

5)get an app named a2sd gui from android market and run it .

It would ask for superuser permission so give it,it will lso give a warning just hit ok and then choose the second tab for cache ..the pointer would be in internal memory .

Now choose cache in sd ext and hit move and rebuild ..now it will automatically reboot and after loading will reboot once more on its own ..

Now check ur free memory will be around 190-193 mb nd any app u install will automatically go to sd ..u need not move it manually ..the free memory will remain same or decrease very marginally ..

Enjoy ..n press thanks

Edit: kindly ignore grammatical mistake n tiny spelling mistakes cos i typed all of this using my fone wit dictionary off ..

press thanks if i helped!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kireas:
Had a look through the forums already looking for pointers, as well as a good few hours of Google-fu, so now I'm posting.

My Nexus decided, last night, my SIM wasn't inserted. This was while I was playing with my settings (I ticked allow national-roaming, went into Airplane and out, and then it happened). I undid my changes, but no, SIM not inserted.

I've soft-rebooted countless times, reseated the SIM, cleaned the contacts, checked other SIM cards, checked the SIM in other phones, restored a known-to-be-working backup of my OS, and as I type this out, I'm flashing a clean copy of a ROM with all my settings wiped. I expect it to be finished by the time I complete this sentence.

Yes, finished. And still no luck. Where do I go from here?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
The only thing I can think of is to try passimg just because it's a stock ROM, if that doesn't work then I think I we can assume it's hardware.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Beefcake550:
I am currently running 5.7.893 rooted and I have been having battery issues lately. The problem is I sit here , 1h 37m off of the charger and the phone is reading 80%. The breakdown looks like this:

Android OS 39%

Maps 12%

Display 11%

WiFi 9%

and a couple other small things.

It seems like my phone is never going into standby and I can't figure out why. I've checked a bunch of things and no luck. If I click the chart at the top of battery info, I see "phone signal" taking a constant drain on the battery.

The only thing I can think of to do is to factory reset the phone and see if that helps.

Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
I would recommend the Factory Reset. But first, is there a chance it's a battery calibration issue? Have you checked the actual mV reading with an apps such as Spare Parts?

Before you do the reset, make sure the Backup and Restore are checked in the Privacy setting. And then after the reset make sure you check the two options presented about Backup and Restore. These show during the new setup after you enter you gmail info. Also, if not in a 4G area, if possible connect to wifi before you finish the setup as your apps will start downloading automatically. Good luck.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Beefcake550:
I did try battery calibration first without luck. I just did the factory reset and I'm charging to 100% now. I haven't done the titanium backup restore, because I want to see if installing the apps I use from scratch again will fix it rather than just restoring them.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
That's a good idea. Lately I've been letting Google install the apps and then I use Titanium to only restore data to select apps (such as Tapatalk).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Beefcake550:
Well, now I'm confused. I haven't installed any apps yet after the factory reset. after 2h 50m of just sitting there, it's reporting:

90% still

32% Android OS

20% phone idle

16% display

16% cell standby

10% wifi

looks much better, but does this look right? I would have expected cell standby to be the dominant process.

wifi
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GeoMandell:
Having the exact same problem. Seems to be draining battery at the same rate it was before the update (which was supposed to fix battery drain or so I thought). I'm-a try a little experimenting before doing a factory reset (HATE doing them). Right now, I'm theorizing the built-in Google backup process might be responsible because I've never seen so much drain before and I usually turn Google backup off since I use TiBu but forgot to disable it after the update.

In the meantime, I've prepared myself for the battery issues by purchasing the battery dock and an extra battery for three total. Swapping batteries is better than staying tethered to a wall charger so much.

EDIT 1: Looks like that did nothing. Next, I'll try wiping cache (didn't do this when I updated)

EDIT 2: Looks like not much change from wiping cache. Guess I will be trying that reset.

EDIT 3: Looks like I use the phrase "looks like" too much. However, the factory reset appears to have resolved the issue, at least initially. Fired up the phone and Android OS was only 8% of the battery usage after 10-15 minutes. Will check back if anything changes.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
Disable push sync on your device.

changing and controlling your sync settings will solve your standby issues and improve your battery life.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Mer2112:
I think a better way of looking it this is that your phone isn't spending 32% of its time using the Android OS and only 20% of its time being idle. That's just how much battery they are using. Your phone could be spending 3 hours "idle" and only 15 minutes using the OS and this is how it could read. It's just how much battery each one is using, not how much time each one is spending doing that particular task.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] djr4x4:
Are you on stock ROM? I'm running the Liberty ROM and sitting at 78% battery at 24hrs13min on stock battery. Cell standby 49%, Phone idle 48%, Display 3%.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosympathy:
I call BS to this...unless you have had airplane mode on the whole time...lol.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
I'm with noosympathy on that one.

A ROM will improve better life but not that much... maybe if you ran it on 3G only, but then again, that is a maybe.

A lot of your battery is used when your phone is syncing.

When connected to 4G, it uses a lot of power trying to get a signal as well.

To help get some more life out of your battery, disable push syncing and notifications.

I set mine to 1 hour because I don't like being bothered for stupid bs.

When your in a place where you know you don't get 4G, turn it off. It is going to try to aquire a 4g signal while running on 3G the whole time draining your battery.

If am out and don't need 4G, I turn it off. It only takes about 15 seconds to turn it back on and have it link up.

Do you really need to be on 4G to play angry birds?

I recommend installing tasker. You can program stuff like this into it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
Maybe I'm weird, but I don't have a need for 4G data all the time. 95% of the time I leave it turned off and battery life is quite nice with the Bionic just riding on 3G. If I'm in a situation where 4G would be useful I'll manually turn it on. Battery life is so much nicer when the radios in the phone aren't constantly fighting for supremacy.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] djr4x4:
Call it as you will. I leave data off unless I need it for something and when I do use it I only use 3g. Most of the time I'm in a wifi area so I'll just use wifi. Speaking of wifi I leave that turned off also unless I need to use it then I turn that on for the time being and turn it back off when I'm done with it. Other then that I use my phone mainly for texting, and calling when need be. If I'm home I use the home phone to talk, and when I'm at work, I use my cell strictly for text and if you really need me I'll talk to you by office phone. I also leave gps off. I see no reason to leave it on. I tried to post a pic of battery life yesterday but it would not take for some reason.. Like I said. You can call BS all you like. I know what my phone did for the last 30 hrs. Last night I charged it. Downloaded a few apps, and updated some app and played angry birds for awhile last night before I threw it on the charger. Maybe that charge was a fluke. I dunno, but that charge was honestly what I had. Pretty sad to sign up to a forum, look for good info and also try and help out someone else with this phone and give insight and then be called a liar by other folks. Maybe I just won't post anymore. Hope you all enjoy your phones and ROM's. I'll just tend to myself.

[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
this mod lets you run FM Radio without headphones attached. I must say from the beginning though, it is next to impossible to receive anything without an antenna. So why whis. Well if you use this and bring your headphones, some cable or metal close to the jack, it starts receiving. Maybe someone can come up with an alternate hardware design which doesn't need to enable headphone mode for the whole OS or find some other use of it.

So, usage: (you might want to have a full nandroid backup just in case)

1- unpack .apk from the archive, use Root Explorer/ADB to copy/overwrite to /system/app

2- restart your phone, start FM Radio and switch to speaker output.

[Milestone 2 General] andrepersil:
I really like and use the CyanogenMod 7.1 made ​​by Endless7 and I am really grateful for his work.

IMHO, it's a lightweight, fast, and was the cleanest ROM prior to attempts to imitate the ICS.

Please do not get me wrong, our MS2 won another life after this ROM, but the latest ones are pretty bad visually.

Why make something that worked so well, visually and functionally in an unfinished-looking thing?

I do not know if it is my sole opinion, but please consider a version without ICS elements.
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
I have same opinion as you, so I'm using older (the latest without ICS theme) CM7 build and it's working fine.

If I will move to another, it will be MIUI, or CM8 (when it will be REAL ICS based CM, not only theme).
[Milestone 2 General] momus87:
Hi,

Using Theme Chooser and Adw options, you can completely revert the ICS changes, which I have to admit I don't like either.

You can also remove the corresponding apks in the update.zip, and remplace the themed Swype apk with a previous one.

It will require signing the archive again though.
[Milestone 2 General] ZyrByt:
You sure with this "signing"? AFAIR signing is not required, CWM installs unsigned updates from zipfiles.
[Milestone 2 General] andrepersil:
I know that almost all things changed in CM7 to make it looks like more ICS and less GB can be restored by people with a little knowledge about Android ROMs.

But, for me, the question remains when I found other tweaks that needs a more deep knowledge.

Well, why become a good GB ROM looks like a unfinished ICS and a defective GB?
[Milestone 2 General] abufaka:
its just an optical change?! btw, i didnt notice any performance problems.

PS: maybe its just launcher related, i'm using go ex instead of adw.
[Milestone 2 General] roguefan99:
Only issue I found when reskinning the ICS is that the font colour for notifications is stuck at white. I can live with this, for such a great ROM. I'll admit I do use Go Launcher EX with the ICS theme (or Go Launcher Original) and not issues with performance with the ROM (mild hangs on boot for SU but thats always been there!)

As for Swype, you can copy in the new Swype.apk into /system/app using root explorer, and set the permissions. Then reboot and you will have the swype put back in nicely. Its what I did with Dark Swype.
[Milestone 2 General] andrepersil:
It's buggy isn't?

The ROM performs very well, it's made for free, but I still hope that someone reconsider to make this great ROM - at least a option of it - as clean as possible, including visually.

:(
[Milestone 2 General] roguefan99:
White notifications aren't a problem if you have a black background (which the ICS style has), I just use the meizu one which has a hatched/translucent background so its hard to read. I just need to get the time to read up about how to change it (and maybe add a blue overscroll effect) and I'd be done.

I would say this ROM is extremely clean, and visually pleasing, I think the ICS version of the ROM is more pleasing than the initial versions of it (but then again I've been skinning and customising it since it started).

I've actually fixed the white text using the UOT Kitchen, so its not a problem for me anymore.. attached the zip, flashable in clockwork (had to use the recovery from booting out of the rom). It will change a few things such as the bootlogo (sorry its a milestone one, love the old school logo though) as well as some default system menu items.
