Just don´t forget to make a full-wipe in advance (format system, data, cash and boot). Then flash ROM (it is including kernel, don´t flash another one).
[Nexus S Android Development] batting1000:
It was made to work that way, its not a bug or anything.
[Nexus S Android Development] suboxide:
My wifi works perfect on i9023 checked 2 normal connections and a fon Wi-Fi network without problems make sure you have the wifi patch installed
[Nexus S Android Development] monossidoz:
Great rom, first ICS rom from source...compliemnts!

A little bit laggy, but it's normal...I see that the rom is using the galaxy nexus driver..

Just a thing that it's important for me...tethering, I don't see the option!
[Nexus S Android Development] mixtapes08:
Can we use customs kernels in here? I think not?

Wifi and 3G works for me, though I think 3G is unstable. It might just be the place I am right now.

But there's one thing that annoys me a lot, and that I have no proper way to control media volume. When I use the volume-keys it only controls the call volume.

I also noticed that I screen brightness doesn't work properly; it's not as bright as it is supposed to, even when I set it to use the brightest settings.

Edit: there are some errors in the text, because Swiftkeys autocorrect doesn't work properly. Not gonna bother to fix it.
[Nexus S Android Development] dmarcato:
Wow this ROM is great, very fast and stable and almost all is working! Great works! :D

My only problem is that i can't access the camera from my application, it seems that the standard code i wrote for Ginger doesn't work on ICS and the preview doesn't start. I noticed the same problem in some other apps, while many other works well...

Someone know what is the problem? :confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] maxone001:
For your volume control problem you can use voodoo, it works for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
yes i have the patch installed. also disabled avoid poort connections.

it just doesnt work for me :(:(
[Nexus S Android Development] vap1d:
Take a look at the galaxy nexus, they removed search from the buttons at the bottom of the screen. I'd say that is why they have the search thing locked to the top of the screen.

Downloading this now as well. After all the glowing reviews I can't wait to get it flashed!
[Nexus S Android Development] mk86:
I really love the panorama mode.. Never thought that this would work so well :)
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Yeah, I'll try that. Thanks!

Edit: kernel doesn't support it. What now?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Market doesn't work for me, just times out on the first loading screen. Anyone else?
[Nexus S Android Development] IchBinsShorty1982:
Very nice work. But syncing Contacs from Facebook don't work. You can see Facebook in the "add to account" Menu but you can't add it to the account.

And can somebody confirm that the Dropbox account in the Estrong App don't work ? I can't login, (wrong login data). But the orginal DRopbox App works with this login data.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
Speed is fine on my i9023. Its worth flashing ! But i think i'll restore my backup later
[Nexus S Android Development] fromthestars:
I9020A on telus mobility in Canada

flashed and seems to be a nice rom so far :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Frizzanko:
it didn't even flash for me, any luck?
[Nexus S Android Development] SoleOfJohn:
Been a UK fan my whole life. We should have won by more but hey, we'll take it.

ROM IS AWESOME!
[Nexus S Android Development] JRECH:
I'm doing a backup now. I'll give it a try in a sec
[Nexus S Android Development] neo_x22000:
nope...didnt flash for me either :(

i get an error...something with gapps
[Nexus S Android Development] Monztruo:
Wifi working, just insist!
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
Wow. This is soooooo damn smooth!
[Nexus S Android Development] jknvv13:
Have u pushed on the rom the hwcomposer module?
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
Thanks for the rom OP. I been impatiently waiting for someone to release a AOSP ICS rom for nexus s :)

Wi-Fi works, if you add it manually like was said earlier in the thread. the icon doesn't seem to show the wifi reception correctly, but it works :)

edit: it will show actual reception bars for wifi when you go into the wifi settings though ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] grubynawro:
i9020t - WiFi works for me. I added manually my network and it works. Only icon on status bar is grey all the time.
[Nexus S Android Development] JRECH:
Don't even try if you have the 4g. Won't work
[Nexus S Android Development] jaestreetss:
+10

I'll donate to that

brought to you by my iced out ns4G
[Nexus S Android Development] fromthestars:
Just to point out a bug, I get FC when trying to use some of the cool new ICS video effects

also, and this could be just me. But I flashed the rom, rebooted to CWM to back it up, and then had an error when trying to restore my previous CM7 nandroid.
[Nexus S Android Development] kwiboo:
No, the rom is missing the hwcomposer module.

Also the rom is using the gralloc from maguro, but it seems to work.
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
so far the only thing that really needs a fix is usb mass storage. can't mount the sd card on a computer. can live with the wifi icon :)
[Nexus S Android Development] neo_x22000:
screenshots??
[Nexus S Android Development] Moystard:
I don't think so judging the user experience.

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 AM ----------

It is standard ICS, what do you need screenshots for?
[Nexus S Android Development] Luxferro:
Just found a bug with root explorer.

It installs, but when you launch it, it overlays a big gray area covering the screen, and off to one corner is miniature version of what should be on the whole screen.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
Is the rom rooted?
[Nexus S Android Development] rentaric:
Can you post that in a larger version here or over at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1271088 again please? :D
[Nexus S Android Development] lookon:
Great Job!

The power+ volume down to take screenshot does not work though.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
Yes is does. You have to hold it like 5 seconds.. that did it for me ;)9
[Nexus S Android Development] maxone001:
For the Facebook sync it's normal, Google have remove this function in gb.
[Nexus S Android Development] lilnev:
volume control doesn't work when screen is off or locked.
[Nexus S Android Development] daisun:
Despite being an alpha wip this rom is pretty stable! I can't seem to get the 'silly faces' to work in the camera, it just causes it to FC. Also, my wifi icon doesnt show the signal strength its just grey.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
I wonder how much the dev can improve this rom. It actually is amazing as it is right now.

If the dev can release such a amazing work at the first time he can make anything !! :)

My hero xD
[Nexus S Android Development] akirone81:
Google+ freeze when you open the gallery of your photo posted... anyone else?
[Nexus S Android Development] Serious_Beans:
This ROM is awesome for an alpha, its pretty damn stable.
[Nexus S Android Development] XCellPhoneSalesRep:

[Nexus S Android Development] Yusei:
How i've to apply wifi patch?

good job btw

thx
[Nexus S Android Development] matt2053:
Flash it from custom recovery.
[Nexus S Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Do we just flash this with clockwork mod???
[Nexus S Android Development] snoopXR6:
Not sure if screenshots have been posted but here are some just incase.
[Nexus S Android Development] wyk126:
could you confirm that is it work with both horizontal and vertical way? 360 degree panorama capture?

I saw many video show they only do it in horizontal way

cheers
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
yes we do.

full wipe/wipe cache/wipe dalvik cache.

flash rom

flash wifi patch

reboot ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] badboyvtec:
is wifi tether on yet? i cant seem to find it.
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
LinkedIN has a couple tiny visual tics but otherwise works fine for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] xtracrispy:
This thing is surprisingly good on RAM.....

Using the stock kernel that it's not even supposed to be using, I'm consistantly over 100mb free ram.

Some lags here an' there still but I'm fairly sure that the final release is going to be just as, if not zippier than gB!
[Nexus S Android Development] vap1d:
It freezes for me when I try to scroll on the main screen. I can open and scroll in stuff high enough that doesn't need to scroll on main screen. But then when I back out of one of those galleries it freezes.
[Nexus S Android Development] xmRipper:
Does anyone know when Nexus S will officially get an OTA update to Android 4.0 ?
[Nexus S Android Development] kewlguru:
I was pining for a new build for some time now.

I thought that the AOSP build was going to take ages! Finally!!

Thanks to the dev! Trying it out since so many of you are giving glowing reviews.
[Nexus S Android Development] nazimster:
Wow I have flashed

Really nice

Thanks

No issues for now .

Everything works
[Nexus S Android Development] phillevy:
Everything is good for me other than not being able to see my SD media using the gallery etc. They can be accessed using rom toolbox. Any ideas?

EDIT: Also I can't add a Facebook account - it is listed but nothing happens when I select it in settings, accounts etc.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
Facebook Sync doesn't work for me either. But i think i will stick to this Rom! It's too amazing to ditch it! :D

I'm uploading a Video to youtube to show how it is working for me..
[Nexus S Android Development] vap1d:
Does anyone use Plume for twitter? If so is it working for you? It just hangs for me at a white screen after I click start.

This rom is absolutely amazing. Well done OP, and as has been stated earlier in this thread EPIC first post! Thank you!
[Nexus S Android Development] nicholasbgr:
Thank you so much for this ROM, been checking XDA all week for it. MUCH faster and smooth than the SDK port, and everything seens to be working properly so far. Screenshot tool definitely works.

Anyone knows of a workaround to update G+, Maps and Music?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] zeeraf:
its not the rom , i think its just facebook... if you go to settings in the fb app you will see there is no option for fb sync.

loaded this last night on my ns4g and im loving it
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
I guess you're right. But that happened to me with gingerbread as well...

I think it's definately not the rom..
[Nexus S Android Development] scufutz:
One quick question wich phone to keep?sgs with one year use or a brand new nexus s?
[Nexus S Android Development] faizalmzain:
nexus s doesn't support facebook syncing via official facebook for android app since like forever, so it's not a bug by default.
[Nexus S Android Development] basziee:
Works perfect on my i9023 wifi works to ( apply patch )

I have restore my apps with titanium an i defently use this as my daily rom! Thank you Love xda
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
PLEASE keep the nexus s!

it's basically like the sgs but i guess it is a little bit faster

But enough OT! :D
[Nexus S Android Development] merlin699:
tested short on my I9023

works surprisingly smooth and fast!

mass memory works for camera but not for music!?

didn't manage to get wifi working, but didn't try too long. didn't see any networks.

adding facebook sync doesn't work, facebook app works.

great work for a first release.

definitely will switch to ICS ASAP!!

thx!
[Nexus S Android Development] slonn:
So far it works flawlessly except that it's not possible to restore apps via Titanium backup. But I'm not sure if the rom is to blame for that or if the TB developer needs to look into preparing his app for ICS :)
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
nexus s FTW!! :D
[Nexus S Android Development] merlin699:
but it works on MIUI for nexusS
[Nexus S Android Development] Jeremiah239:
I restored all my apps from titanium backup...
[Nexus S Android Development] IchBinsShorty1982:
Yes I know because Facebook use not the official Api like Twitter, Last.FM etc. But maybe Facebook could use the Api with an Update. Is this right ?
[Nexus S Android Development] Nizzay!:
Are you referring to the login page? You have to scroll right to the middle of the page. I couldn't zoom in but I manage to able to login. Plume in general works fine
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
If you encounter any Problems like with TB just try to wipe everything again. Sometimes even a reboot solves problems :)
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
Google took Facebook SYNC out of ICS. They want you to use G+
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
And MIUI is not stock Android LOL.
[Nexus S Android Development] slonn:
Really? That's weird. It's stuck at 0% restored. I'm using the paid version.
[Nexus S Android Development] jorgeccs:
someone could activate the whatsapp? I do not get the verification message
[Nexus S Android Development] fergie716:
Yea me too..tried rebooting, fixing permissions etc.. I'm on the 4G version
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
worked for me. well, i just restored it with mybackup pro.
[Nexus S Android Development] snoopXR6:
I had the same issue. To fix enable 3rd party apps and adjust the app processing mode to interactive/classic
[Nexus S Android Development] mk86:
it worked for me but I was already activated before..
[Nexus S Android Development] rockb.blues:
For those of you having trouble with titanium, try going into preferences within the app and scroll down to app processing mode, choose interactive and try restoring again.
[Nexus S Android Development] jorgeccs:
I do not get in any way the SMS, or call ... Another way to check?
[Nexus S Android Development] astarling10:
I used TB to restore my apps and worked fine for me. In preferences, select classic mode for installing apps. Oh and make sure install from unknown places checked in your settings.
[Nexus S Android Development] sim64one:
Good work!

Look & work very nice on my i9023

Thank a lot
[Nexus S Android Development] maxone001:
The problem with titanium is if you did not allow unknown source app before do your restore. If you're stock on 0% reset your phone, allow

Install of unknown source app and restart the restore.
[Nexus S Android Development] BLAQK ROXSTAR:
I noticed Root Explorer doesn't play nice with this ROM
[Nexus S Android Development] astarling10:
This helped me to get TB working.

[Nexus S Android Development] matt2053:
Actually Facebook refuses to comply with guidelines for contacts API usage and have since Gingerbread. There is no FB sync in stock Android 2.3, and there won't be in 4.0 until Facebook changes their ****ty rules about how they own all your data.

But yes I'm sure Google would rather you use G+ anyway :)
[Nexus S Android Development] rrohanjs:
can any one post battery stats over a decent period of time ?
[Nexus S Android Development] david279:
How to use wifi direct? Or does it even work?
[Nexus S Android Development] nicholasbgr:
Tried updating Maps, Music and G+ by removing from /system/apps, rebooting and downloading from Market. It worked for Music and G+ but Maps won't install. It give an "unknown error".
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
Well, as you can see in my video one page back. My device lost about 15-20% over a period of 1h20m. But i used it a lot and tested a lot. So i think battery is pretty decent
[Nexus S Android Development] slonn:
Yup, and that worked except the aps had to be manually installed. Still worth it
[Nexus S Android Development] aam6906:
same thing here w/ google maps
[Nexus S Android Development] phillevy:
Right - I remember about the FB thing now - I was thrown as it is still listed as an option in the "add accounts" menu (why?)

Thanks so much to this dev - I now remember why I chose to get the Nexus S rather than wait for the LG Optimus 2X;)

One problem only remains - the gallery not finding my SD media - I think this is a gallery bug. If I take a new photo it shows in the gallery, however if I copy and paste anything else to the same folder it remains invisible. However a market app Fish Bowl Photo Gallery sees everything. One last thing - I was sure there was an option for face unlock, but this isn't there in the security settings anymore?
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
wifi doesnt work for me. it just hangs at turning wifi on. (with the patch)
[Nexus S Android Development] basziee:
It worked for me i downloaded whatzapp from te market and put my 06 number and there it is
[Nexus S Android Development] rentaric:
As the kernel is still 2.x and prolly based on one of the more battery friendly ones the current batt time is in no way relevant. That said, there's no leakage or anything. Lost 1% over night, 8h, in idle.
[Nexus S Android Development] haitham18:
whatsapp works with me without asking verification i just put my no and its asked me to restore my chat thats it,,,

but can u plz tell if viber works with u???
[Nexus S Android Development] matt2053:
Google Talk - I can't see any of my contacts, so I can't start a chat with anyone.
[Nexus S Android Development] Soldier Blue:
Sorry if this has repeated. I installed this and played around for an hour or two before bed, here are my thoughts:

- looks much nicer than stock GB, is faster and easier to use

- panorama is neat but the rest of the camera app changes are slightly crap imo

- fine grained data controls and vertical card swiping for multitasking are easily the best core ui additions in the entire OS

- browser seems faster than stock and has some interesting experimental controls; I get 50k browsermarks; bookmark management is still a chore

- wifi working perfectly since I did apply the patch

- the device charges damn slow for some reason; it'll move up 10% in the time I could have a 30% boost with some roms

- battery life seemed to be poor, could be debugging and hwa?

- not being able to remove the google search bar is horrible, I never use it and now its a permawidget

- can't bring up widgets drawer from long tap on home

- side to side "page" scrolling through apps and widgets is HORRIBLE, whoever decided that many swipes were better instead of one fast flick to smoothly scroll through a huge list to the point you want is a goddamned idiot

- widgets themselves haven't improved a whole lot, lacks basic note taking

I have no doubt the performance, aesthetics and usability of this will kick stock GB left and right. However, there are a few cripplingly stupid changes and the base functionality is nowhere near enough for my tastes as you're still missing a lot of custom rom enhancements. Admittedly, a lot of them are aimed at aggressive performance gains, which is less of an issue in ICS than GB.

CM9 can't come soon enough.
[Nexus S Android Development] vap1d:
Did updating G+ in this manner fix force closes in photos?

is there any way to get usb storage to work? i mean that i can access it with my pc?

thanks!

EDIT: ok i just found out how to mount it in cwm! (mounts and storage/mount USB storage/)
[Nexus S Android Development] JTECJ:
You realize that this is an experimental rom build so not everything's working perfect yet right? Also this is a section for rom development, not general os discussion or critique. All we need in here is your experience in the rom compared to how it "should" work.
[Nexus S Android Development] Luigi79:
I downloaded it again from the market and then i used titanium back up to restore only data... it works :)
[Nexus S Android Development] xyience:
I think its pretty neat.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I had the same problem with SD and gallery, but I just waited and then I was able to see it all.

Try restarting, that fix'd it for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] ghost010:
does it have root? xp? i hope so.cuz my USB isnt working.(USB as in hardware USB)
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
it didn't work..

having the following issue.

before both flashes i did a full wipe/cache/dalvik cache

first time when i flashed the ics rom on ns3g i9023(with sim inserted)

everything works, exept for wifi even after flashing the patch.

so i thought i flash it another time but this time with no sim inserted.(

it booted up with wifi working!. connected to everything and everything works fine!.(with the patch)

then I insert my sim and it inmeddiatly stops working. . it says connected, but i cant go on the internet, market etc. it says no connection..

I ran a fix permissions but it didnt help.
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
Not yet... most likely need the right kernel
[Nexus S Android Development] Soldier Blue:
Probably not a place for critique of the OS itself, but those were my first impressions only not a full review. I also made no complaints about the stability/speed state it was in, and all the bugs I found have been mentioned.
[Nexus S Android Development] phillevy:
Just mount storage from recovery and your PC can access it no problem.
[Nexus S Android Development] Hostile89:
I did. Just sits at the initial google screen. It gave me an access error when trying to view the kernel log so i don't think it was even trying to boot.

Installed the rom 3 times, everything works as stated before. Apps installed ok thru Market; but apps won't install thru file manager, 4S share or TB at all - application installation failed!

Market is 3.3.12, anything else I can try?
[Nexus S Android Development] elinho:
Boom! Finally working on my 93. No bugz so far, :) great work, from sweden
[Nexus S Android Development] Hostile89:
You are using ClockworkMod Recovery correct? Try toggle signature verification in the apply zip menu.
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
That's because the kernel is not for this hardware LOL. There is no 3.0 kernel for NS, leaked or not leaked. This ROM is a great achievement but a proper kernel is needed now.
[Nexus S Android Development] lcchan1:
My last option would be install Drew's b12, get all my apps installed, then do a upgrade (with this rom) without data wipe to see if my apps would stick.
[Nexus S Android Development] Hamletiano:
This rom is quite stable for its alpha status...although,obviously it has some bugs:

Found a "problem" which is annoying me, first of all, could not find the adobe flash player in the market, decided to take it from my BT back up (following your instructions), and once i am able to have it installed, it does not work either on default browser or on dolphin hd one... everytime i press on the green arrow, it shows me the the blue missing plugin icon.

Is it generalized with you too??

Thanks for the answers.
