Because the ROM is listed elsewhere? So are half the ROMs in the development section. I am maintaining the OP, so this thread is just as relevant as any in the development section. Most of you are aware of the bad blood between xda & Peter, my opinion is discrimination. Show Peter some support, vote this thread to the front page, rate 5 stars, let moderators know you want Peter's work in the development forum. This site exists for YOU, the user. Not for any other reason. If this forum doesn't support developers, the name will soon change to xda news threads instead of xda development. Moderators have a thankless job to be sure, but their involvment should make the site better, not hinder users who want to use development threads for their intended use. Thank You!
[Nexus S General] Killasmoke:
new nightly on Pete's site!!;p
[Nexus S General] styckx:
Calendar works..

MMS - Same

Camcorder special effects don't FC anymore but camera stops working but you can close it.

Wallet - Same

^ Minor things.. The bulk of what I need works flawlessly so I'm good to go still.. Thanks again Pete!

Hi yes hello there. Any reason I can't get WiFi?
[Nexus S General] chosen14u:
any idea where to pickup a change log? Can't locate one.
[Nexus S General] styckx:
No clue. I'm sending this via wifi. Never had wifi issues.
[Nexus S General] q711179:
Market is uploading apps via wifi incredibly fast for me. No problems here. I always turn airplane mode on before booting into recovery and then turn phone off after a flash. Read that a few times on a kernel thread, don't know if it makes any difference, but couldn't hurt.
[Nexus S General] psvillars:
turn on wifi and then reboot and see if that does it
[Nexus S General] neo_x22000:
so no MMS at all?

Sent from my Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S General] styckx:
Nope.. All ICS builds I know have this issue.. You can send one, but you can't get it once it's sent.. A Download button shows up but can never download anything.
[Nexus S General] Killasmoke:
Great build calendar fixed camera effects fixed if you get the green screen when phone goes off for a sec use spare parts & put transition on fast it gets ride of green screen but you lose crt animation & this build is 184mb I can wait until it gets slimmed down to 125 mb like the Google OTA!! Pete's the man the 2 best ics roms for my phone is this one & cross bones ics
[Nexus S General] psvillars:
is that just in the stock messaging app? because I use handcent but haven't recieved an mms yet to test it out :(
[Nexus S General] sabaramo:
I

This is the full rom. Ota and full from are different beasts altogether. 185 can't be compared with 125.
[Nexus S General] the1dynasty:
so since mine runs PERFECT for what i need... it looks like the only thing fixed was the calendar... should i even bother flashing this one?

hey pete, anyway to include the T9 dialer on an upcoming build? :)

i agree 110% before i flashed the glados kernal, i got a 25xx score and my phone was blazing fast... no stuttering while scrolling through the apps or home screens...

i managed to fix my calendar with the backup i had with my previous rom from aosp... can anyone confirm "gmail" is fixed? that's the only thing i could use that seems to crash randomly and not even open when i select it from the app drawer...
[Nexus S General] psvillars:
gmail is working fine for me
[Nexus S General] the1dynasty:
just had an idea to remove gmail+data with titanium backup then i restored it right back... WORKS fine now :)

so the question remains... can we get a changelog so we know what was done on these updates b/c i really can't see anything wrong with the first build...

side note: to ease a curious mind, i turned on 4G near my job and it actually connected!! this is odd considering Sprint says there isn't 4G for at least 30miles in any direction from me! now if i could only get it 8miles north of that spot where i live :D
[Nexus S General] mlin:
Mms has worked for both sending and receiving on aosp's builds. I'm not sure what is the error your describing.

Anyone know of a fix?
[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:

Going to give Peter's ICS a try. We'll see how it compares to the others.
[Nexus S General] the1dynasty:
i said the same thing just 2 days ago and i can't even believe i was trying other roms!! :cool:

I guess we do need 2 threads for this rom...

Is there a way to make MMS work with just the stock Messaging app? I dont want to use a 3rd party app for all my txting
[Nexus S General] Bruce lee roy:
Thanks to the mismanagement of you and other mods.
[Nexus S General] ragnarokx:
Calendar still doesn't work on the 12-20 nightly (did complete wipe of everything twice). Had to flash a zip to fix.

Don't use go SMS pro as your main SMS app. Just disable all notifications for go SMS pro and use your stock app as your main messaging app then when you get mms go to go SMS pro just to download it

Radio for att

What's the best radio for good data and connection for Att been using ke1 and kb2 kb3 dunno which one to stick with?
[Nexus S General] chalan30:
This rom is for the NS4g, not the nexus s from Att, so this might not be the right place for this question.
[Nexus S General] seezar:
His download page has more ICS roms than just the NS4g
[Nexus S General] scott8281:
+1 on that... I'll stick to following Pete on twitter and checking https://github.com/peteralfonso for the change logs. These moderators are dickbags most of the time. I've been using Pete's roms for a while and hes one of the few devs that compile builds straight from source and he always puts out quality work. Koush is another of my favorites. I bring that up becasue Koush's alpha of CM9 is still in the development section and as far as i know he is responsible for the nexus s/maintains it for CM but kali has been handling the thread. What the difference? If some of these moderators keep treating Devs and Users this way, then everyone will go else where and the moderators will be on here alone being dicks to each other and locking and moving their own threads.. damn lol
[Nexus S General] Tahde:
Just finished installing and getting all my programs back. I have everything working so far. Have not had any FC's on anything. I'm on stock kernel. Just trying to get use to this ICS build. This is going to be my daily. Thanks Pete!!!!

Native screenshot working? I thought I read somewhere that it comes with ICS.
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
Try it by holding down vol- and power buttons simultaneously.
[Nexus S General] Tahde:
Got it! Thank you very much! :D
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
What do you mean that the Camera stops working? Can you take pics in regular and panorama mode alright?
[Nexus S General] Zorrich:
Just wanted to let people know that my mms is working fine.

Actually the entire build seems excellent after his Dec 20 update, with the exception of a small bug I found with volume toggles. When I try to hit "vibrate" from the volume toggle (holding power button to bring up window), it actually puts my phone on silent.

Other than that, phones seems to be running great.

Thanks Peter.

EDIT: Running Dec 20 build, with GLaDOS v2.2
[Nexus S General] juliano_q:
I installed today this rom with glados 2.2 and it is working very well!
[Nexus S General] dzerveviktory:
Same here! Was very laggy then I checked my setcpu and my governors were set to smartass from my titanium restore. Changed it now its flawless!

anyone have a mirror... his link is down
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
I've flashed 12/20 twice and the calendar app just isn't there. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong.
[Nexus S General] mlin:
Hey, Allgamer-

It seems that any thread pertaining to a ROM, regardless of where that ROM is hosted, should be posted in the development section. I think this thread is unnecessary as there is already a thread for Peter's ROM that is receiving more traffic than this thread. It seems we don't need 2 threads for the same ROM so perhaps close this one and move the other to development. Just a thought.
[Nexus S General] FL0OD:
Make sure when you go to his page that you are dling the correct version as the one from 12-19 is the first one but the one from 12-20 does not have that issue.

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S General] q711179:
I tested out the camera and it worked fine, both regular and panoramic, I then tried out the video option and it worked as well, finally played the video back and everything is good.

I had the disappearing calender option on the 12-19 build but not the 12-20; you might want to try downloading over and reflash. If that doesn't work, there was much earlier post with an option to flash as a fix.

This ROM is working just great.
[Nexus S General] steve.garon:
So is that ROM a completely stock rom? Can anyone tell me if the browser syncs? This is killing me with the CM9 alpha 17...
[Nexus S General] juliano_q:
Browser bookmarks sync perfectly. As far as I know, the rom is stock.
[Nexus S General] steve.garon:
This is great news... I'm trying this tonight! :)
[Nexus S General] q711179:
All of Pete's ROM's are basically stock with a few performance enhancements. This is part of debate between XDA and Pete, they wanted screenshots of ROM, and Pete says if they are just stock then what is point?

On GB thread there were multiple requests for additions to his ROM but they are seldom addressed as Pete's emphasis has been to produce stock ROM's that perform well without bugs, and I have no doubt that trend will continue.
[Nexus S General] grifforama:
I can't get the battery to charge past 92 % ??

I'm on Glados 2.2..wonder if it's ROM or Kernel ?
[Nexus S General] dzerveviktory:
mine stops at 95% ...even after changing it with NSTools...
[Nexus S General] xuser:
With ICS the new battery charging limit is 96%. This is done to increase the life of the battery by not overcharging it. 96% is the new 100%, get used to it. :)
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
Mine wouldn't charge past 98% at first after flashing the ROM, but after clearing battery stats it now charges to true 100% (4.9v)
[Nexus S General] surveysays:
the charging limit has always been 96 , this did not change in ICS , its been like that since GB.

just depends on the kernel and what settings you have ie. NSTools that can enable you to fully charge to 100% or any percentile that you elect.

noting that you have to get 'used' to :cool:
[Nexus S General] beetlo:
For the 9 quadrillionth time, the charge to 96 is a HARDWARE feature. Any software that tells you it is charged higher is fudging the numbers to make you feel better. Why does it matter? The battery lasts just as long either way...
[Nexus S General] mlin:
Can anyone comment on the smoothness of this compared to CM9 a18? I'm currently using CM and its a little laggy and slow to respond.

[Nexus S General] Kindatired:
Love Petes rom. Is there a change log for his roms, or even a list of features he has added or changed over stock?
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
Well, it doesn't matter. But I feell bad for the engineer who made the decision to not make it esthetically correct. I mean we all know that lithium batteries can not be charged all the way up or discharged all the way down but we don't need to see that :)
[Nexus S General] q711179:
I was using cm9 while waiting for Pete‘s. This ROM running very smooth, with cm9 I used ADW to correct the lag, but no need here. Only sluggish feel is with native browser which has been slow to load on every ICS I have tried.
[Nexus S General] Kindatired:
Well my test is over. My battery is at 10% after 5 hours of non stop a

screen on, surfing on wifi. Think that is a record for my phone.

Can someone running Pete's latest on a Crespo4G comment whether or not Wallet is installable straight from the Market with his rom?

Thanks.
[Nexus S General] corythug:
Hmm if my phone performs half as well as this I may have to give this a whirl. I have very meh battery life thus far on ICS.

Follow the leader @corythug ;)
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
So far with my experience, it will install from the market but force closes as soon as I launch it. It also seems to force close just after booting.
[Nexus S General] :
Just letting you all know that with the 12-19 ROM and Glados 2.2, I got 24 hours of use out of the phone, including sleep time. This was with the brightness set to maximum and me constantly entering in and out of a no-reception area. Use is moderate (making calls, frequent texting, and looking up references on my phone)

Will be testing the 12-20 build now. Thanks pete!
[Nexus S General] SComp23:
Has anyone tried to use the status bar (Bluetooth,Wireless,Sound, etc) in the notification slide-down screen that worked for GPA19?

Where can I acquire such a thing for this ROM if that one doesn't work?
[Nexus S General] ehac1680:
A full wipe and flash should fix your issue.
[Nexus S General] ragnarokx:
The mod from Gingerbread won't work. Although since some AOSP ROMs have it now, I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to get working with Peter's build.
[Nexus S General] resetreflectt:
Not a single bit of lag in the app drawer. First time on any Peter Alfonso rom and honestly I can see why he gets all the hype. This is incredible.

Now all I need is a fully working Grand Theft Auto 3 and my life is complete lol.
[Nexus S General] q711179:
Anyone notice a new nightly (12-21) is on Pete's download page? Missing now! Oh well.

Makes me glad this ICS came out during break in school, Pete has time to play.:)
[Nexus S General] petrochemicals:
I did, it is downloading right now. As soon as it started downloading I noticed it was gone from the site. You guys think it is safe to flash?
[Nexus S General] q711179:
I would burn that one. :D

MMS working???

Hey guys, I see someone mentioning that MMS is working fine on this rom but I had an MMS fail this morning.

I installed 12-20 coming from 12-19 wiping cache and dalvik last night.

I've been running the ROM stock, to avoid any conflicts for the time being (I see many are running Glados).

The work around posted for 12-19 worked though, just installing GoSMS and downloading the MMS message that way.

So, is MMS on stock messaging with stock kernel (if it even matters) working 100%? If so, full wipe of 12-21 is in my immediate future.
[Nexus S General] solesonfire:
My mms doesn't work wahhhh
[Nexus S General] h46it:
Is anyone having this problems with market not showing any of your apps? I've had this problem with another ICS rom. I don't know why this is happening. I came from full wipe from another rom to this one. Here is a image of what i'm seeing in 'my apps' in market:
[Nexus S General] styckx:
Nope.. Can't say I've ever had that problem or seen it before to be honest..
[Nexus S General] h46it:
I've never come across it either, no one has had a answer for it. I'm really puzzled at the moment by it.
[Nexus S General] Ichiban Rei:
So it isn't working for you either or are you giving me ****?

I'm not complaining, just wondering if it in fact works.

It worked for me on AOSP's rom but I had other issues on that rom. So far Pete's is the most stable on my phone and I don't mind the work around but I've got a son due any day now and mms messages will be flying.
[Nexus S General] styckx:
Googling around it seems to be a common random problem.. A solution I found is here.. Another reoccuring theme I see is w/ people who have blackmarket installed or some other bootleg / cross market app setup like Amazon App store etc..

Hope he fixed the touch click sounds atm not using IC sounds they sound generic

none the less im looking forward ot his future ROMS with all his tweaks. They perform better than stock

Lol... /rant? I feel you brother.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
Does anyone have face lock?
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
haha yea heat of the moment but realized it wont change anything so i removed and will only derail the thread
[Nexus S General] xuser:
Yes it was added in the last nightly. Not sure how well it will work with the NS VGA camera. Facelock was more intended for the Galaxy Nexus which has a better front facing camera.
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
I just flashed the newest nightly and there's no face lock
[Nexus S General] the1dynasty:
Make sure you flashed 12/22 because I can confirm that facial lock works in this build! thanks Pete.

Anyways, can this thread title get updated with the latest build number in it? Its rather hard to stay updated with which update we're on without looking through the posts.
[Nexus S General] xuser:
Settings/ Security/ Screen Lock. Worked on my phone. It's in the changelog. See my post above. Did you install the 12. 22. nightly?
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Anybody having any luck with wallet? It's automatically FCs on me when I open it. :(
[Nexus S General] frankie51:
I just reflashed and it worked maybe I flashed the old nightly
[Nexus S General] The111:
I have a question regarding the "nightly" concept which I've never really participated in before. I'd like to stay up to date though, but full wipes every night are obviously not practical for me. So, if I am running custom kernel and this ROM, then here is what I'm guessing I do when new nightly comes out:

1) wipe cache/dalvik

2) flash new nightly (as long as it's not a huge version change, in which case I'd do a full wipe)

3) re-flash my custom kernel (or a newer but smallish-update version of the same kernel... different kernel or large change and I would probably full wipe as above)

Does that sequence seem right? Thanks!
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Yup but it may work quirky afterwards.
[Nexus S General] weidong.yi:
I have been looking forward to Peter Alfonso ICS rom as their bugless beast GB rom is very awesome!
[Nexus S General] Bruce lee roy:
If it's running OK, just run it for a while until you have the time or the inclination to update. Its not mandatory that you flash every nightly. In fact, it has Been my experience that not all nightlies are worth flashing. Sometimes a nightly will introduce a bug that wasn't previously present, in which case, a previously released version may actually be superior.
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Yet still.... Does anybody have wallet working?
[Nexus S General] juliano_q:
Just flashed 22/12 over 20/12. Seems to be working well. Face Unlock is there, but not woking most of the times as usual. I think face unlock will never be good on Nexus S guys, just forget it :)
[Nexus S General] Bruce lee roy:
This guy is such a beast! He must be sitting on a dev sweatshop BC he's pushing out updates like his last name was Schmidt.
[Nexus S General] steve.garon:
The GN has a better front facing camera than the NS. That may be why the NS face unlock does not work so well...

[Nexus S General] juliano_q:
Also, usually is ok to flash a nightly over another without data wipe. I always do that and if something weird happends I wipe.
[Nexus S General] jm9843:
No. Neither the one you can find in "Themes & Apps" section flashed through recovery, nor installing from the Market.
[Nexus S General] fwald:
I have flashed and re-flashed the 22DEC but still don't have Face Unlock available under Security/Screen Lock.

This is on a NS4G. Anyone have Face Unlock working on one? It's not a big deal, just curious.
[Nexus S General] Sim2:
It works on the 12-20 nightly but I can't say that works well enough to actually use it. Fails to recognize me 4 out 5 tries.
[Nexus S General] seezar:
Pete added face unlock back to the Nexus S builds by popular request, but it is so unreliable on the NS phones that personally I feel it should just be removed.
[Nexus S General] Sim2:
browser incognito mode?

So the ICS browser supposedly has an incognito mode but I can't find it. Anyone else? Supposedly you hit "new tab" and select "incognito tab" but I just get a new tab.... no options.

on Peters 12/20 build which is working just fine so far.
[Nexus S General] snoopy1e11:
Incognito mode is just so it won't save your browsing history or store cookies its doin right by opening a new window it just won't save your data in incognito mode. When you hit the new tab box press menu and its an option for incognito tab and tells u how it works
[Nexus S General] jm9843:
I started on the 12/22 build and can only comment on it. But when I go to the "tabs screen" in the browser (the one where you can swipe tabs away to close), and hit the Menu button, I get an option for "New incognito tab".
[Nexus S General] MrDrumngun:
Does anybody have Google Wallet working?!
[Nexus S General] surveysays:
should be good to go. one thing i would highly recommend is to flash your kernel separate from the nightly. i always flash the rom , boot up & let it run for a lil while make sure everything is okay. then go back wipe dalvik and flash kernel of choice. :cool:
[Nexus S General] xuser:
You've asked the same question 3 times in the last two pages. There is no need for that. Google Wallet is Not working at this time. Look at Pete's changelog for updates.
