My Nexus shuts the door!

For some strange reason when I connect my USB cable to PC it would only charge and not mount. Notifications are also missing.

I noticed I cannot open any folders via Astro File manager, they simply get highlited.

I have tried 3 different PCs and 4 different cables. It happened just before OTA was released lol

But is rather serious thing and I need some-one to help me out. I know can directly download the update on phone but that's not a fix for the issue. Besides the download on phone dies somewhere mid way.

I am confident someone in here would be able to help. A virus May be? or USB port of phone needs a check?

I never thought official Ice cream sandwhich build will be this tough lol

My Apple Bluetooth keyboard finally works with my Nexus S with ICS. It never did with GB.
[Nexus S General] skatastamoutrasas:
So far, all good and smooth. I haven't installed any 3rd party apps, only my Google account so, it is pretty clean. Hope that it will be OK all the way.

[Nexus S General] bgdxv:
anyone? :(
[Nexus S General] briggl:
Great to hear ;D
[Nexus S General] ReeSilva:
Man, the link on first post works fine on i9023
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
The cordless mighty mouse works too... kinda pointless on a phone but cool none the less. (oh and bluetooth inet tether thats iOs compatable)
[Nexus S General] doubleblack:
To the handful of people getting OTA update on i9020a, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get either:

a) name of ZIP file

b) URL of ZIP file

c) copy ZIP file and upload (should be in /cache folder I think)

(preferably all three)

Once you install it the file is deleted and you lost your chance, so please if you downloaded update don't apply until you get at least one of the above...but preferably all three, you would be a hero to all of us in this thread with i9020a wanting update. This is AT&T/Rogers model.
[Nexus S General] rcrd-pt:
yes. what is so important in the 9023 version?
[Nexus S General] dissss:
Knew I should have waited for the OTA.

I wonder what the differences between the i9020 and i9023 actually are where recovery is concerned.
[Nexus S General] bgdxv:
I thought there was one that had working recovery for i9023
[Nexus S General] adrian.gab:
I manually installed it as per instructions and it works great :)

Initially I found it laggy but now it's great, I guess once things cached or some background processes stopped it was all good. I have in excess of 120 apps. I haven't found any issues so far as most apps already updated for ICS.

A couple points though:

- Before I would open the clock app to get to my alarms but now all it shows is a desk clock (menu button does nothing nor swipes). The only way i can get to my alarms is to create an analogue clock widget and press that which takes me to the alarms. Is there another way?

- I can't add more than 16 apps to any one folder. Does this happen to anybody else?
[Nexus S General] ChocSoldier:
Try this, I've always preferred it to going into the clock app. Only issue is it uses an older Android Alarms icon. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.connor.alarmLauncher&hl=en
[Nexus S General] KiraYoma:
I can confirm this! Just did a factory rest on my Nexus S (i9023), in the recovery by whipping cache and data.

And soon after it restart it prompt me the OTA update!

BTW: When you go into your bootloader on the i9023 (on 2.3.6, before the OTA), it also says the baseband is still something like 9020 and

not 9023

!
[Nexus S General] phoneman09:
I really want to do this update I can't wait any longer. One question though what if I do the update will I still be able to receive the official ota updates of ics from Google?
[Nexus S General] rcrd-pt:
that´s right!

yes, as this is an official update.
[Nexus S General] dissss:
If the update is the same then why does recovery work on the i9023 when the update came OTA but not for those of us that did a manual install earlier?

Perhaps the URL is the same but the package is slightly different to what it was yesterday.
[Nexus S General] phoneman09:
Alright just making sure. Has anyone noticed any bugs with ics yet one the nexus s?
[Nexus S General] bgdxv:
The guys with i9023 that got the update and the zip file is the same as the one posted here, can you please tell me what is your hardware rev. version shown in bootloader?
[Nexus S General] rcrd-pt:
9020. but in 2.3.6 it also says 9020...
[Nexus S General] ReeSilva:
My recovery really not worked on 9023 even after install CWM.
[Nexus S General] briggl:
Is it really confirmed that the recovery works when flashing oficial OTA update on the i9023?

I am askin' because some people still doubt that the update works for all versions and that's why recovery is not working.
[Nexus S General] bgdxv:
I'm talking about HW VERSION , the third line from the top
[Nexus S General] rcrd-pt:
rev 51. is it wrong?
[Nexus S General] bgdxv:
Well mine says rev 52 on gingerbread :confused: (i9023)
[Nexus S General] bugz213:
ditto!!!!... i keep checkin every chance i get...
[Nexus S General] MFire:
No, I updated official OTA, did not manually flash.
[Nexus S General] heinst:
The quadrant benchmark is optimized for ICS yet so its irrelevant.
[Nexus S General] sixstringsg:
What did you use to flash back to stock?
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Hey guys, my Nexus S is a model # GT-I9020FSRRWC (Canadian version of the AT&T Nexus S) and it's only connected via Wireless right now. Here's a screen shot of my settings:

Is my baseband radio version right? Shouldn't it be UCKF1?
[Nexus S General] ToniCipriani:
Here's an idea... for those who did get the 4.0 update, it probably means their device is listed to get the update. I wonder if it's possible to reflash back to 2.3.6, then get the update again, so we get the ZIP name?

Or will they just lose the update and stuck at 2.3.6 again?
[Nexus S General] ReeSilva:
On my i9023 i follow the guide for root (link above) and then install CWM by Rom Manager and now my recovery is working

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396959
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
People have done that in the past and not gotten the update notification again. I think they authorize a certain number of users at a given time. And if you roll back, you aren't guaranteed to get it again.
[Nexus S General] vennstrom:
OTA is rolled out in China

Mine is i9023, Stock 2.3.6 rooted...downloading now, will update the functionality of recovery upon completion

Edited: Recovery still error regardless of OTA update or manual install, it is actually working, just didn't show anything, probably due to SAMOLED vs SC-LCD thing

[Nexus S General] minori_aoi:
Stock rooted 2.3.6 i9023, no issue with flashing the zip from first page, just directly go to recovery and flash it.

But the performance seems very poor. always get lag when going from homescreen to drawer. thumbnail on gallery also very ugly (i prefer the previous gallery which have an elegant look). browser render kind of slow when you scroll. GPS also lock slower.
[Nexus S General] julz:
hrmm weird... so it got stuck and I had to take out the battery to turn it off. Turned it back on and it booted back into 2.3.6 and I did a scan for updates and it says it's up to date...
[Nexus S General] Valantin:
I full wipe my stock 2.3.6 and magicaly the update appear :D

sorry for my bad eng
[Nexus S General] briggl:
you are not stuck, try vol up and power to get menu.

have you renamed the zip file to update.zip?
[Nexus S General] doombox414:
The market does not allows me to download apps on 3G, only Wifi works?

Is it me or anyone else is having problem with Market? I was told not to flash ics gapps on top as its not a custom rom.

Any suggestions?

Problem installing ICS on i9020T

Hi Fellas, I am having issue in installing 4.0.3. I am getting Error code 7. I am using 2.3.6, rooted mobile. superuser version is 3.0.3. can any has any idea why i am getting this....?
[Nexus S General] nawktonson:
I upgraded from CM9 a13 and these were the steps I took:

1.) Install stock 2.3.6 ROM using CWM w/ full wipe.

2.) Reboot

3.) Hold VolUp + Power at start up to boot stock bootloader (CWM would give Error 7)

4.) Went to Recovery

5.) Installed the ICS zip file posted by OP

6.) Reboot

7.) Success!

I still have the Superuser app in my app drawer but it doesn't seem to be functional. Also, there is no option to uninstall it. My phone is still unlocked but it seems like there is no root access.

Will I need to remove superuser and other stuff from my phone from when I rooted it to get the best performance from stock ICS? I still notice a split-second screen flicker when I lock the phone. Also the UI sounds are still stock Gingerbread sounds.
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
Yep root doesnt seem to reliably work on 4.0.3 right now... half looking at using the non rooted form of my rom myself.

Wow you are right about the sounds... never noticed until now but hey i got a fix from the cm9 alpha roms.

This is the sound set from the galaxy nexus: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1360448

Edit: updating my zip to have the galaxy nexus sound set
[Nexus S General] langers1972:
The OTA method isn't the same as the manual one so the renaming to update.zip is irrelevant

on i9023 rev52 with OTA from device recovery broke.

sameone have stock recovery work on i9023?

i think is update problem, i tested same update with unlocked and locked unroot stock 2.3.6 and have same problem...

can sameone post a screen of recovery and varius menu?

i think recovery work but no video output, if i've a screen i can wipe without see samelse

sorry for my very bad eng
[Nexus S General] asuperhero03:
got this from Koush's G+ page.

Ken Johnson - Instructions: Use rom manager to downgrade to 2.3.3 after reboot skip through and just go to settings after about 10 seconds the 2.3.6 ota begins to download, when that installs reboot and flash the 4.0.3 ota by going to stock android recovery and updating by selecting the 4.0.3 zip

I was on kwiboo's v3 ics, used CWM to flash the 2.3.3 image, did a wipe cuz things got weird, (a whole bunch of FC's) then rebooted. loaded up, skipped through set-up, and 2.3.6 had already started to download on it's own. finished it, then rebooted into recovery, and "update from zip". updated itself, and now i'm running 4.0.3, IML74K. nice and fast!!

no wallet errors, and i have yet to try nfc beam or even try to use wallet. but so far it's legit. not as buggy as the rom's. thanks to the devs for the hardwork!

can u explain this?

why? and if i download it, what will happen to my nexus s?

lets picts (attachment) explain

[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
It seems that miui rom hasn't disabled ota updates and you are being given a update that will fail to flash.
[Nexus S General] chintan.dholakiya:
Please tell me how to activate that screenshot thing m having i9023 and had installed this but screenshot is not working,

[Nexus S General] neo_x22000:
so how is the phone handling ICS?...is it stable??...is it as fast as GB?...im just curious cuz where having issues on 4g roms built from source..starting to think hardware wont handle ics..but could just b the builds...

Anyone have an idea? There's no sim card in my phone at the moment.

[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Extremely stable and very responsive for me. The UI is just so much more professional looking. One cool addition is that you can control the multitasking and define how many apps ICS is allowed to run in the background.
[Nexus S General] Ripthorn:
Already posted?

official ics ota for i9023 is out...
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
It is a unsigned zip so you need to flash it with CWM recovery... but all you need to do if oyu are on stock recovery is to download latest CMW for your model and place it in same directory as fastboot and run "fastboot boot <cwm image file>".

Yes you should be on a UC series radio since this ota was meant for i9020t.. the fix is to Download and flash Download and flash Radio UCKF1 (New Version).

Hope this helps :)
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Hi, thanks for the reply. Can I just move this to the sdcard and do an update via the recovery or is there a proper method to replace the radio files?

I just tried flashing it and got a write failed.
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
There are two methods to flash the radio...

a) Download latest CWM Recovery and place it in same folder as fastboot and run "fastboot boot <cwm recovey file>" then flash the zip.

b) Follow the guides here to verify if a downloaded image is correct then extract the radio.img to same folder as fastboot and type "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

Either or will give you the result you desire... but make sure the download is correct md5 sum according to http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=883 before you flash it via fastboot method.
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
I just tried flashing and got a write error. I'm guessing the directory is read only
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
OK try option A and usb booting cwm recovery if that doesnt work either then you need to unlock your bootloader.
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
The boot loader is unlocked. The update was an OTA via wireless from Google. Doesn't the phone need to be rooted to use CWM?
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
Nope it doesn't... as mine is now i'm using cwm via usb booting like i outlined in option A so that should work for you since your bootloader is unlocked.
[Nexus S General] jedijos:
The same thing happened to me, and now I can't even enter recovery from fastboot, what can I do now??

When I try to enter recovery it restarts and show the Android with the exclamation mark...
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
You are in stock recovery pressing vol up + power will get you in there also you can usb boot cwm to get usb mass storage to copy the any files you may need to flash.
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Where do I download the clockwork recovery files?
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
here is the latest for the nexus s gsm: http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Okay, rebooted into CWR and pointed to the file UCKF1-GRK39F-radio-nexuss-unsigned.zip and it installed correctly. Booted the phone and it still says NO DGSXXK11 for Baseband version. Not sure why it didn't change...
[Nexus S General] adnanbaig18:
Which model is I9020XXKF1???? Is it the I9020T (T-Mobile) version or is it I9020A???
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
Hmm intresting.. try "Radio UCKE1" from the radios thread... see if that works.
[Nexus S General] foreman31:
Try taking the battery out for at least 3 minutes
[Nexus S General] Nomedias:
After manually updating my I9020T to ICS 4.0.3, my baseband is I9020XXKI1
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Okay, success. The Baseband version is now reporting i9020AUCKE1. Now, I'm just wondering if that's the proper radio for the phone. You're in Canada, shouldn't we have the same radio? Mine is essentially a best buy Nexus S.

BTW, I just did a carrier scan and it's picking up the following carriers:

CAN Rogers Wireless Inc

302610

302220

I almost want to "accidentally" dial 911 just to verify it :)
[Nexus S General] evilution:
Very excited about this.

I was on CM7 on my t mobile phone.

So i reverted to stock 2.3.6. no problems

now I applied the 4.0.3.

cleared cache (not full wipe)

It seems to be in a bootloop..

It's been running ICS boot screen for 10 minutes now.

Is this normal?

Should I pull battery and restart?
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Not normal as that's way too long, pull the battery and reboot to recovery.
[Nexus S General] Gurgen:
Do not update with this, wifi connecting problem will appear immediately. I have downloaded and manually updated ICS 4.0.3. on my Nexus S, now phone do not see any wifi rooter around. As I found in other forums it is wide issue of ICS on Nexus S. So, be careful.
[Nexus S General] Claudy_vdd:
please, Nexus S version M200 can update ICS?
[Nexus S General] marsrogers:
The Full upgrade address is:http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/google_crespo/ZD3PyN0t.zip

No need to upgrade from 2.3.6, this can update from any version.

It's 160M
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
Well any UC series radio is proper on your model (same for mine) but i just prefer xxkb3 cause it gives me uncapped upload speeds (so yea im on a NO DGSXXKB3 and it works great in my location).
[Nexus S General] tehgeekguy:
I haven't had a single issue like that. Seeing all of my neighbors networks and can connect to my hidden one just fine.
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
Damn, I'm just wondering if I should have just left it alone all along now that I know you have a NO DGSXXKB3 broadband version and it's working for you. Mine was NO DGSXXKI1 after the OTA update and it was probably fine all along. Any chance to return to pure stock? Or is it even worth it? Or should I try your KB3 radio? BTW, thanks for all of your help.
[Nexus S General] sabaramo:
I had the same issue.

There are 2 KF1 radios, the "new version" and the old version.

I got the same thing as you when I tried the "new version". When I tried the old one, it worked.

Others have had luck with the KE1 radio.
[Nexus S General] kibmcz:
It's odd since that new kf1 should work since i extracted it from my own i9020a and have used it my self on occasion (got master zip on my usb storage).
[Nexus S General] xenonrider:
I just tried the old version and got an error when it tried to apply it so it aborted. File is fine as the MD5 matches.

Nexus S Camera Zoom enabled with ICS update ?

I thought I should share this with all of you. ICS is running smoothly with a teeny tiny bit of lag but that is just fine. Although when auto rotating to lanscape mode it does take about 3-4 seconds to change views.

The Camera Zoom function has been enabled in my GT-i9023 (European Nexus S). Although I haven't been able to use zoom via the stock camera but when using Camera ZOOM FX I get a zoom of about 6.0X :D
[Nexus S General] ~David:
Please don't do this. Ever.

You have no idea how many pocket/false/accidental dials 911 receives every day. It is extremely taxing and clogs the lines, delaying responses to real emergencies. It doesn't matter if you "accidentally" dial 911, the operator will still need to take time to verify a few things with you (Where are you? What's your name? Are you sure everything is OK? What phone do you have? How did you accidentally dial? etc.)

It's even worse when people pocket dial 911 and then hang up. 911 will call you back. And if you don't answer/cooperate, they will dispatch an officer to your location.

If you want to test 911, call your local department's general line first and ask them if you can arrange a test.

Edit: Oh yeah, and it's also illegal.
[Nexus S General] :
Same here. Brand new pearl-white EUR Nexus S i9023 SLCD wiped, got ICS yesterday. Everything cool except the tiny lags in several menus:

- after running some apps and going back to desktop+ pressing app-menu button: the menu appears but not as smooth as in GB

- when removing background apps from the app-list the transitions are not smooth at all

- when pressing items in all context menus, you can clearly see that the color fading of the button is not smooth and stutters a bit..

not that big of a deal but its different from GB.

w.r.t. to recovery: it works fine except that there is no display backlight activated after the `open droid' image. so if you hold your nexus to a light source you can still see the menu items and even read the text. i wiped the cache partition that way.

bottom line: very fine update. But with a few UI-quirks.

Edit: OTA update, locked before, locked after, never rooted
