I am questioning myself how long Google would work on the final ICS update for the GSM Nexus S.

I hope between a few days and a week...

What do you think how long it would take?

Well, NS is just not important anymore to Google. So it's not surprising they're not investing more time and money in it.

Probably a stable version will come, sometimes towards the end of the month. Your guess is as good as mine.

If youre thinking about me trying to get the games for free, i can provide my android reciept to prove i have bought the game

Is this allowed? If not, delete away devs.

So I cannot for the life of me get my windows 7 64 bit to recognize my phone in download mode. I have installed and uninstalled and installed the samsung mobile driver to no avail. When I try to use the extracted drivers I get a "the best driver is already installed" message. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Before u do this, uninstall ur so called existing drivers.

Hey I know this should be in Development Forum but I'm not allowed to post there yet, was wondering if it would be possible for a Dev to make a ROM to run Cupcake/Doughnut/Eclair on the GNexus?

Obviously not for a daily driver but for simple curiosity to its possibility and its speed. I imagine that on such a powerful device such a simple OS would run blazingly fast.

Feel free to repost this in the right forum, actually please do.

AJ
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lambda30:
Q: Why the hell would you want to do that ? :| You want fast ? Try a 4.0.3 ROM and that's it. End of story.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajrennie_GNex12:
I wouldn't use it daily, I just never got to use the old android versions and I think it would be a cool gimmick. If the G1 can run ICS why can't the Nexus run Cupcake?

I'm currently running the AOKP (Kang Project), I'd say its the best ICS ROM I've come across
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewhansen86:
Why would you ever want to do this? it would be equivalent to taking your PC and putting windows 95 on it.....Why would you. 4.0.3 ICS works fine, it doesn't slow the phone down any, downgrading to an older OS isn't going to show you some amazing massive speed increase.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jstegeman:
While it may be possible, I think you can assume from the tenor of the responses so far that it isn't too likely that you'll find a lot of people interested in investing the time to make it happen.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ittekimasu:
Only problem I can imagine is that the galaxy nexus doesn't have any buttons, sooooo good luck operating it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Or drivers. Or kernels. Or support. Or donations. Or public interest.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajrennie_GNex12:
This may be the only constructive reply here, thank you. I just wondered if it would be possible or if anyone else was curious enough to try it. Never mine, I'm holding out for a sense ROM, again not a daily driver just a time to time use thing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
as ittekaimus said, you'd be unable to run those.

all those versions of android required physical buttons, so you won't have home, back, or menu unless you added softkeys, would would basically require a rewrite of the original code. and no one is going to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Wow. You dont have any interest in your request, and then you butterfly off into I'm gonna wait for sense even though there isn't any. Sense roms. Sense roms. Lol.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skynet11:
I had posted this exact question in a thread where someone requested a GB ROM for this phone, but I did it for lulz...

Seriously, though, an older OS usually just slows a device (or a computer, for that matter) down because it's not designed to take advantage of many hardware advances that have been made since the dated OS had been released. ICS will run faster on this device than anything older would.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajrennie_GNex12:
Well yeah pretty much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
You guys should all be ashamed of yourselves. Just because someone is unlearned is not an excuse to insult and degrade them at every turn.

Perhaps when you were all noobs people treated you like scum and you feel like it's some kind of initiation, but in the end, you all just look like douche bags.

What would have been helpful and mature would be to explain to him that porting roms is a lot of work and the benefits do not outweigh the work. In fact, older roms were less efficient in a lot of ways, so there may be no true benefit at all.

Likely, there would be no kernel for an old OS that would be compatible with GNexus, and that's a show stopper there?

But in all honesty, most of the replies could be analogous to arguing that an snes emulator (or dosbox!) on a new pc is stupid, but I'm sure most of us have used things like that.

Maybe Donut isn't nostalgic enough yet for someone to want to put in the work, but one day it might be. On that day, this request will seem valid.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jordan.t:
Hey Guys, i just got my new transformer prime last week and while installing the new firmware versions this morning i ran into a problem. The first firmware update installed fine but while the camera firmware update was downloading, the screen locked up and wouldn't detect any touch input (taps or swipes).

I did the usual reboot a few times and the first time i tried it i was returned to the unlock screen but it still wouldn't register any touch input. I rebooted again and this time i was greeted with an error page containing three gears in a circle with and orange triangle in the middle and an exclamation mark in the triangle (no text describing what this means). This takes up the entire screen in landscape-mode and in portrait-mode it takes up the top half while the bottom half shows the bottom of the portrait-mode unlock screen and the system bar along the bottom.

Android is still functioning as i can see notifications come and go on the bottom (gmail popped up and i checked it on my laptop and the notification went away) but when the tablet is connected to my PC it doesn't show thing on the device. The device comes up but the computer shows it as empty.

If anyone knows anything about this or any possible fixes i'd appreciate them greatly.

Thanks people

Edit: Problem Resolved - Let the tablet die, recharge it, turn it back on and it should be working again
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joe14:
Probably same problem as described here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1423503&page=12

Hope you resolve this.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I would try rebooting again. then manually install or reapply the update though PC and Asus website where they have the firmware/system updates to manually install into prime. or you could even try the reset hole on the side or bringing up the bootloader menu to do a factory reset. good luck. post results or anything else you might have encountered.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jordan.t:
How can i get to the bootloader menu to do the factory reset without the touch screen. the tablet isn't rooted if that matters
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] afterthought325:
Mine did the same thing. I called up Asus and they are wanting me to send mine in and let them fix it, i decided i might want to check here and see if this was just me or if it was a problem shared by others....

---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ----------

you can't manually install the updates without using the touchscreen which doesn't work.... i thought about that and tried to find some way of remotely doing this with some sort of software but Asus doesn't give a way of doing this...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
its some combination of holding volume down and power button at the same time for a couple secs. it could be the opposite though, hold volume up and power down. can't exactly remember which one. it is here within the threads though. or you could even call Asus for the right combo on how to factory reset device back to like it was in the box. if manually installing software won't work since touchscreen unresponsive, factory reset may be only option. since you use the hardware keys to initiate actions. cuz once in menu, you use volume down to scroll to factory reset. then pressing volume up confirms actions. double check which combo is the one to initiate the menu. good luck and hope you can bring back the prime to its normal working state.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] afterthought325:
I called Asus Earlier and they went through the Factory reset process, but even that won't work. they ended up asking me to send it in to them to be fixed. its the same for others in this thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jordan.t:
I called ASUS, they told me that there were numerous reports of this error and that they would email me or call me within 24-48 hours with a report on my "case". So apparently they know and there trying to do something about it whether or not that's an OTA software fix or if we have to send them all in to get them reset remains to be seen.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] afterthought325:
thats helpful to know
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unknown_owner:
You will lose all your data if you do this...you are warned.

Hold down the Vol-down and power button. After the vibration of it restarting release both buttons. You will see some writing on the screen...don't tuch anything. After about 5 secs, you will be taken to a screen with 2 pictures: one saying "WIPE DATA" and the other a picture of the android mascot. Use the vol down to navigate between options and the vol up to select options. You will be asked to confirm your selection before it actually kicks off. Hope this helps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Hi, the device is still usable by connecting the prime to a dock and using a USB mouse.

I've described this in the "New Firmware..." thread as well.

From the other threads it does seem like Factory Reseting makes no difference, and I will not do it because right now I have full root access (adb shell - su)

I believe with it, we could try and figure out how to fix the situation.

So if anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Also, is this the "official" My transformer prime is bricked thread now?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] afterthought325:
thanks for the tip, but it didn't work. oh well... this is where Asus's locked bootloaders come back to get them. they could easily push out a recovery image and tell how to boot into the bootloader and flash it. but because they went with locked, they ended up screwing us over.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Hi,

so by killing this process I am now able to get into the System via USB Mouse and use my prime, without getting the "orange gears" screen. That makes my prime at least partially usable again.

how much battery life was in it before it acted up? it might be time to call it quits and just exchange it. seems like you did and tried everything you could.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] biggem001:
For those of you with mouse access to the device

go to this address

Select ANDROID as OS > Click FIRMWARE > Click your device US/WW (probably most of you are US)

Download the firmware file. Push it to you SD Card through any method.

A Triangle [!] will appear in your status bar.

Wait a few

The firmware should be reset (hopefully)

interesting.

grab the firmware from and earlier release, boot into kernel recovery (vol down + power and then vol +) and access adb and push them in. dont forget chmod 775

make sure to SU, and maybe even adb remount/root if it will let you
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Hm No root from Kernel Recvovery.

I am seeing the Update Firmware from File screen now, by renaming the

.33 dlpkgfile to US_epad-user-8.8.3.33 and placing it in Root of SDCARD

but the update won't continue because TF states battery status as 0%..

So seems like we're running full circle now.

I need that battery communication issue fixed. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] biggem001:
delete this file:

/data/system/batterystats.bin

and reboot (that file can be deleted fine)

and in recovery, you cannot use SU command? or adb root or adb remount?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Negative to both. I tried deleting batterstats.bin but that didn't help, the battery icon still shows a '?'.

I'll do my USB Mouse workaround for now, and see if there are any asus apps that could be hanging or need a wipe.

So far, it seems like the only thing that "helped" was to have the battery drain naturally (or by rebooting a lot) and that should bring the "communication process" back up again. For some reason, I don't trust that logic though. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] biggem001:
if you can, get a batterystatus.bin form another TFP, CAN ONLY BE TFP

also.. if you did delete and reboot, a new file SHOULD be there.. if its not, that is intriguing.

Do me a favor, restart your device, start ADB Logcat > batterylog.txt

and post that, lemme see if i can see if there is something we can fix
