It won't work for my neither. Was originally using gapps-ics-20111125-2.zip, just upgraded, no difference. I've tested it on my Nexus S with both Alpha 11 and Alpha 12 (I'm back to Alpha 11, Alpha 12 is a battery hog for me).

In my Sync settings, all my Google apps sync perfectly (Browser, Contacts, Currents, Docs, Gmail, Google Photos, Google Reader, Google+) and display their pretty name (i.e. "Contacts" instead of "com.android.contacts"). Calendar displays com.android.calendar instead of Calendar. I get the error message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.".

Thank you.

I'm on mobilicity and its fine
[Nexus S General] ChucCTaylor:
my phone is freezing up way to often on Alpha 12
[Nexus S General] AASonyKK:
What kernel do you use?
[Nexus S General] cpl593h:
It works! Thank you.

Out of curiosity, where is this CalendarProvider.apk from?
[Nexus S General] Androyed:
Does VooDoo Sound work on the kernel of CM9 Alpha 12? If not, can I just use a Gingerbread kernel like Matrix or Netarchy that does have VooDoo Sound included? I really like the interface of Android 4.0, but I'm not going to change if VooDoo Sound doesn't work. It's just too awesome!
[Nexus S General] DoktorZero:
No, you must use a kernel based on ICS
[Nexus S General] kitster1:
Everything work fine on alpha 12, but NFC doesnt work on my 9023.

Anyway to fix it ?
[Nexus S General] theolondon:
unable to connect to network

Since installing alpha 12 i have been unable to connect to a network. I have installed various different radios, and different roms and now still can't connect to my network (o2uk) anyone have any ideas?
[Nexus S General] krarvind:
check your IMEI. hopefully you backed up your efs folder.
[Nexus S General] theolondon:
imei has changed. no efs backup. am i screwed?
[Nexus S General] ChucCTaylor:
the one it came with, i didnt flash a new one
[Nexus S General] djjonastybe:
Maybe not

nv_data.bin

look if there is a backup file like nv_data.bak or nv_data.bin.bak

there may be more files which are backed up in the efs folder

delete the current nv_data.bin and put the old backup back...

Maybe then it will work. :)

wait for others to approve my method first before trying.
[Nexus S General] AndroidUser00110001:
Not sure, someone linked it to me earlier in this thread but it is safe, I checked it out before using it :)
[Nexus S General] Haizum74:
You sure it isnt the radios you have been flashing thats derped your phone?

Great ROM and really stable! Is anyone finding that Google Wallet is using up all the battery? Any ideas how to disable it?

Thanks
[Nexus S General] DDRFAN:
Happens to me, only when its not constantly crashing oddly enough. When ever it crashes often; I check, and it uses up close to nothing. odd.

Anybody have problem with media devices?

i can't open my png images, it become 0 byte, but other files ok.

I can't buy any application in market (3.3.12). There is an error in comunications and I should "try it later". In web browser it works.

What gapps are you running?
[Nexus S General] rony05:
after flashing Alpha 12 i'm not able to change in data usage preferable cycle or setup data warning .
[Nexus S General] kvaju:
We all have that problem, its not just you.

I want to report bug, every now and then, my screen stuck at landscape mode, no way

return it to portrait mode other than uncheking rotation under display settings.

"I wiped data and installed off of ROM Manager and retested before reporting this bug."
[Nexus S General] kuldaoo:
These gapps-ics-20111125-2.zip. but kvaju tells it was normal
[Nexus S General] djjonastybe:
I think if you want the choppy video player to be fixed. I think you have to manually force gpu acceleration in the apk manifest. Or maybe you have to disable it.

I read an article about reduced gpu acceleration in ICS. Because it takes unnecessary RAM for each process thats running. So I think you have to manually enable it maybe.

Just a guess!
[Nexus S General] sixstringsg:
Normal is a relative term. simms22 has it working, and he's running 28. I've also heard a few other people that have it running, so there must be a connection somewhere.
[Nexus S General] TheColdOne:
I've been having way too many crashing issues with this build and am jumping back to Alpha 11, which seemed much more stable.

I have this with A12

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

i downloaded and installed the zip file multiple files. What is wrong?

Can someone make a backup of this ROM or edit the build.prop so I dont have the setupwizardmode?
[Nexus S General] DumbUglyDragon:
Alpha 12 works, pretty smooth. Just slightly disappointed that Wallet was removed. That had been only version of Wallet I've found that worked with ICS. =/ Anyone have a version of Wallet they have working with this?
[Nexus S General] jlaudio27:
This ROM is awesome! Thanks so much, loving the ICS!!

I do see one bug though, its not a show stopper but it is inconvenient. When I'm in a game, changing the volume does NOT change the Media volume, rather just changes the ringer volume. Unless there is a new setting I'm unaware of.

Coming from stock GRJ22, I downloaded alpha 12 from Rom Manager and installed it through CWM recovery. Now it is showing boot animation screen for 15min now. Should I wait or just reboot the phone?

Thanks for any help out there.

Wipe data/factory reset in cwm, then wipe cache, then wipe dalvik cache.

How do I install a kernel on this thing?

When I install GLaDOS or franco's kernel the WiFi doesn't work.
[Nexus S General] kuldaoo:
28 pack still doesn't work.

---------- Post added at 10:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------

With GLaDOS the wifi doesn't work but with latest franco's it does (in my 9023). Did you wiped cache and dalvik cache?
[Nexus S General] KalimochoAz:
New version can be found here "Alfa 13": http://bit.ly/ICSAlfa13

What was there?

Voodoo drivers included in kernel. Thanks to supercurio

Updated to 2.6.35.14 kernel version

100% indicator when battery goes to max. ( I know some people prefer to see 96% but I don't think this is correct. The batery indicator says 0 when the hardware thinks there is no more battery to work but in fact there is no 0volts there, and should show 100% when hardware goes to maximun programed. Is already known that battery is not going to reach his maximun value to protect from overtemp and extend his live, but if the save voltage is a 96% of the max, 96% should be shown as 100% )

Wifi update to use new 3.0 drivers

Bluetooth also updated. Now supports new devices.

What's new?

Updated ICS to recent codes

Data usage now works again.

More save wifi status in kernel.

More battery time.

M. Danesh added T9 into call ( go to options to enable T9 ) I love this option.

...

Let me know of issues with T9.

Enable T9: Go into call ( telephone app ), press menu and go to settings, select "dialpad settings", check T9 and reboot. Now you can find your contacts by pressing the numbers.

All credits for Cyanogenmod team, Koush and Teamhacksung.

PD: Ezekeel, sorry if I'm late answering you about the kernel. The kernel can be found here: http://bit.ly/ICSKernelCrespo2

PD2: Do not coplain about wifi unless you are using original kernel. ( I know also Steve Garon, and Francisco Franco kernels should also let wifi working )
[Nexus S General] 3Shirts:
Is this Koush's Alpha 13 or a kang? Only reason I ask is it's not on ROM Manager
[Nexus S General] KalimochoAz:
I will add to into RM as soon as I can. Is Koush's Alfa 13 but I build it here since Koush is doing other stuff.
[Nexus S General] KBanause:
I hope the kernel will jump to a 3.0 kernel once the official OTA has been released :D
[Nexus S General] bringonblink:
Getting the same problem, did a full wipe too :S

EDIT

Fixxing perms did it
[Nexus S General] djjonastybe:
Those who want to watch video's on this ROM I recommend this:

Install MX Video Player

Install MX Video Player Arm7 Codecs

Start MX Video Player

Go to settings

Enable S/W acceleration

Restart MX Video Player

Or get Diceplayer. Worth the money
[Nexus S General] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
I'm sorry but if you are not workin with or for Koush, you shouldnt be creating an Alpha 13. Start your own thread and at the bottom like everyone else @ #1....
[Nexus S General] KBanause:
I think he's working for koush....
[Nexus S General] belair56:
He is "the" man behind the kernels for CM!
[Nexus S General] cbstryker:
+1 on this.

I have no idea why I hadn't thought to try S/W acceleration before.

It works well. Not 100%, more like 98% on playback speed.

The kernel still doesn't work with the BLN app in the market yet and there doesn't seem to be a way to disable it built in.
[Nexus S General] steve.garon:
use nstools
[Nexus S General] KBanause:
Which does not work with the default kernel of Alpha 12 or Alpha 13...
[Nexus S General] KalimochoAz:
Thanks for pointing me about that missing patch from supercurio. I was missing it. Solved.

Yo can upgrade the kernel just installing this one: http://bit.ly/v1umQE

Kalim
[Nexus S General] steve.garon:
Use custom kernel ;)
[Nexus S General] bioan:
The accelerometer does not work properly. It needs to be calibrated in order to play games like Asphalt 6. Any idea on how to calibrate it ? Thank you.
[Nexus S General] KalimochoAz:
This ROM will not work with BLN app from market. We will suply control to LED notification from into the ROM Settings.

As Steve told you, you can use custom kernel to use BLN app, but then don't complain me about problems on the ROM. BLN kernels need to change liblight+kernel so I can't help you on this topic.

[Nexus S General] phillevy:
Sorry if it's here but I can't find a changelog for Alpha 13?
[Nexus S General] loudaccord:
Is the link in the OP for GAPPS the latest?
[Nexus S General] 3Shirts:
That's great, thanks. If built-in control is coming I am more than happy to wait. I prefer to stick with the standard kernel.
[Nexus S General] Epiksol:
Alpha 13 was a fail for me. I couldn't get the Market to download anything; was trying to get Titanium back on to restore all me apps. Oh well.

Flashing back to Drew Garen's Beta 2 now - this has been, by far, the most stable for me out of all the ICS builds I've flashed.
[Nexus S General] Dorilife:
must of been a flashing error, A12 & A13 have been the most stable here..

Smoothest also..
[Nexus S General] 3Shirts:
Yes, same. 13 is even smoother than 12 was for me. Apart from a couple of teething problems (I think due to the fact I flashed over 12 rather than wiping and which are fixed now anyway) it's been perfect. I like the way the launcher customisations are shaping up, the 'dreams' menu is awesome (though Clock doesn't seem to work yet) and the T9 dialer is a very handy and classy implementation.
[Nexus S General] KalimochoAz:
Look at my signature for link
[Nexus S General] Epiksol:
I'll try again. I did a full wipe and all. I'll report back after I try again.

Have you tried DG's Beta 2? Just curious if you're comparing your stability on the CM Alpha's only or if you've tried other builds.
[Nexus S General] camaleonx:
what about camcorder? 480p? 720p? 1080p??
[Nexus S General] formaldehyde:
Thank you VERY much for this build, I love the T9 dialer!
[Nexus S General] AASonyKK:
I'm waiting for the upload to rom manager.

Thanks for this alpha
[Nexus S General] loudaccord:
A13 is working well for me. I was on BrainMaster V6 with Matr1x 11.5 before, everything worked and was fast but battery was just meh... trying this now. Seems smooth and everything I need is working so far. Just battery left to test :)
[Nexus S General] monkeydrufy:
have you changed the kernel with this alpha 13?
[Nexus S General] GHOST99K:
hey guys just got my Nexus S today in mail.unlocked the bootloader and root access within 5 minutes and flashed CM9 alpha 11.beautiful ICS and everything working just Google Plus connection error.loving my new Nexus coming from N1 and loving ICS so far.:D
[Nexus S General] zadnica:

[Nexus S General] fury-fx:
application sound issue

First of all, I wiped data and installed off of ROM Manager and retested before reporting this bug. I tested with alpha 11, 12 and 13 and I have the same problem with each build.

The problem is when I'm in an application, the volume control buttons don't work. They only change the ringtone volume and not the application volume.

I'm on a Nexus S (I9020).

Is this a known bug ?

Thanks

Max
[Nexus S General] loudaccord:
I have the same problem... to change the volume in the music app, you have to go into the app to change it. Been this way with every ICS rom I've tried

I'm using the kernel it came with. Leaving it at 100/1000 min/max on Smartass v2
[Nexus S General] shaunmclane:
Any idea when Alpha 13 is going up on Rom Manager?
[Nexus S General] AASonyKK:
+1

I have the same bug, but not in all application, "only" in about 90% of the application/games.
[Nexus S General] TechNoir:
Seen it mentioned before. I don't _think_ this is intended, I can't really see any developers thinking this is a good idea, anyone who ever plays music immediately would find this very tiresome. Hopefully it will be changed, otherwise I'm sure someone will modify it somehow.
[Nexus S General] cbstryker:
Anyone else feel Alpha 13 is more stable? I had a major (albiet known) issue with SMS and seems to be working better now.

Can anyone corroborate this?
[Nexus S General] aLNG:
or we can use from the first page?
[Nexus S General] Epiksol:
Alright so I wiped again and then reflashed Alpha 13. Everything is working nicely now. I'm impressed at the speed & stability.

I believe my issue with the Market when I flashed the version time was it being on an older version and was in the process of updating me to the latest Market. I received a connection error the first time I opened but after closing and re-opening I noticed the Market had updated itself and the problem had vanished. :)

I'll use this as my daily until Drew releases his Beta 3 and I can check that one out to compare. I honestly don't see it getting much better than this - maybe some small tweaks here and there but not much else.
[Nexus S General] maniac2403:
This is not a bug. It's how ICS does things.

But, the devs would definitely come up with a patch to imitate the GB style of controlling volume.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------

This isn't Koush's Alpha 13 is it?

Doubt this would make it's way to Rom Manager.
[Nexus S General] Dorilife:
Anyone having issues mounting on Ubuntu machine?

Cant get it to mount, i did some reading through the thread but didnt find anything..

I did a complete wipe install not with rom manager.

Alpha 12 and alpha 13 dont mount.

Not a big deal but I'd like to be able to.
[Nexus S General] MistaJae:
I flashed 13 over 12 with only cache wiped and it's running perfectly. Great work from the cm team!

T9 dialer has to be the best new feature. It works so well that I don't need a 3rd party dialer!

Hmm... since ICS came, I've uninstalled a lot of apps that just aren't needed anymore :D
[Nexus S General] maniac2403:
I am on Ubuntu 11.10 and only way you can make USB mount work is to boot into recovery and select "Mount USB" from there.
[Nexus S General] Dorilife:
Yeah I'm on 11.10 too, thanks for the info, i was thinking i might of missed something.
[Nexus S General] KBanause:

Anyone else seeing this? How do I get rid of the one I don't need? And which one is the one I should keep?
[Nexus S General] Haizum74:
Well, upgraded and now wifi and signal greyed out. worked for me on 12

Good to know, i was going back to 11.04 to check but ill stay at 11.10..

Thanks.
[Nexus S General] AndroidUser00110001:
The only way I can mount the Nexus S in ubuntu is through the command line. You need to install MPT tools (something like that) and than mount it manually.

*edit*

Try this

sudo apt-get install libmtp mtptools mtpfs

sudo mkdir /media/NexusS

sudo chmod 775 /media/NexusS

sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/NexusS

DO NOT REMOVE DEVICE WITHOUT UNMOUNTING FIRST!!!

sudo umount /media/NexusS

*EDIT*

ADB works so you can push/pull files from phone...
[Nexus S General] shaunmclane:
I did another clean install and this time I did it through CWM, but I also flashed the gapps from 12. It solved the problem of having duplicate gallery apps, but I see Maps is still not updating. Am I missing a new gapps somewhere? When I just installed 13 (without gapps), Maps wasn't installed, so I downloaded it from the market, and after a few strange errors, it let me use the new version of maps with no problem.

Sorry. Still fairly new at this.
[Nexus S General] Dorilife:
cool, i didnt know ADB worked, just assumed it didnt because my device wouldn't be detected..

Again thanks to everyone for helping me out.

[Nexus S General] onasri15:
I thought there were different screen preferences and stuff on this rom including power bar in notif tray. What happened to those?
[Nexus S General] aLNG:
after testing it 1 day..I would say this is the best when it comes to fluidity. Great experience no lag btwn switching. But the only thing I don't like is battery consumption when in idle/sleep. Cell standby using 20% in sleeping for 5 hours and I forgot to switch off wifi (also 20%). I think I would like to use another kernel that is compatible with this rom which has balance performance and battery.any suggestions?
[Nexus S General] mike216:
Franco's kernel is extraordinary! Go to the end of his thread and search back until you find today's test version. I'm still on alpha 12 and its super duper smooth!

BEST DAMN PHONE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE BEST DAMN DEVELOPERS!
[Nexus S General] maarch:
ok I tried to read for a while to make sure it isnt a known issue, but I didnt find it. So here I go and hopefuly somebody can help me out.

Every time I close my display, it seem to reopen for a milisecond and then close again, this time with a " click " sound.

I think it may be linked with the locked screen. So I tried disabling it... to no luck.

It simply close, I have the closing animation. And then for a fraction of second, it reopen and close again. Do it so fast, the colors dont even appear, just seem to be a greenish color.

Hopefully it's just a setting I have that is wrong. Cause so far, except that on alpha 12 and 13 ( both do it ), everything else is running perfectly ! ( except calender that dont sync, but I'm no really using it, so no deal breaker here )

Exact same issue here. It happened on every ics rom I tried but not all the time just most every time I turned off the display. I thought maybe it was voodoo at first but disabling it didn't help.

[Nexus S General] annndrewww:
I know I may be off base with this one, but has anyone else noticed a hyper-responsive power button in the last two releases?
