I believe that is the GoLauncher default wallpaper. I'm taking the jump and trying b40. I've been on stock 4.0.4 since the leaks and they were fine for me so I decided to stay stock. I'm going on vacation soon so I want to tether free, and, even tho they just fixed NS4G on ICS on FoxFi, I will use that and themes as my excuses to root. How's battery life compared to stock? What're y'all setting as your default voltages and clocks and such? I would've gone with CM9, but Cid is finely and unicorns are boss!

Edit: NM it's the MIUI default wallpaper on MiHome. I get them confused a lot because they're both Chinese launchers and come with similar wallpapers by default.

When wiping and installing a new updated ROM, is it OK to flash the kernel directly after flashing the ROM & gapps? (without reboot) Or do I need to boot the phone first, then go back and flash the kernel?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dscatto:
Boot phone & get it set up how you want it & then flash kernel. Honestly, you can flash the new kernel after the first boot up. But I've always been told to set up my phone first.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Kevin cracolici:
Might just be personal preference, cause some times I load Rom, then kernel one after another, sometimes I load Rom, boot, then go change kernel, never a problem either way

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] hlxanthus:
Okay something happened a little strange today. Used Google navigation this afternoon and after turning it off experienced rapid battery drain. Charged it for a little then took it off and the drain continued. Plugged it in again, rebooted while plugged in and apron reboot gained almost 30% more battery. Obviously it was in incorrect reading but it is still odd. Below is a screenshot.

http://db.tt/O59oEuSx

Edit: forgot to mention I am running b40, matr1x v20 if that helps at all. Flashed from a full wipe, rom and gapps, reboot, then wipe cache/ dalvik, flash kernel.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] wickid_d:
OK, this is my 'general rules of thumb when switching roms', dating back to when I first got my first android phone, the motorola backflip, nearly a year and a half ago. Although they may be a little on the paranoish side, or may not even be proper, I haven't found any better combination of steps to overcome the little 'goofs' and 'hiccups' during the installation of a descent running rom+gapps+kernel combo:

(this is assuming you've already downloaded what you want to use and have done all wiping you feel necessary..)

1) Flash rom, NOTHING else, unless otherwise directed by the OP of the thread from which you got the rom.

2) Boot and setup

without

gapps or kernel installed. (set whatever settings you want to choose at this point)

3) Reboot to recovery, flash gapps, do a factory restore (data/cache wipe), while in recovery.**

4) Boot and setup with gapps, and if the gapps you are installing doesn't come with stuff pre-installed, go ahead and install it. (again, set whatever settings you want to choose at this point)

5) (a)Either via rom manager, or (b)by rebooting into recovery, (THIS IS CRUCIAL) do a backup!! This allows you to recovery from the next step!

6) (a)Wait for boot after backup and reboot into recovery, or (b)flash the kernel you want to flash after backing up, while still in recovery. (most kernels will do a (dalvik)cache wipe when you install them)

7) Reboot, make any kernel tweaks you want via nstools or rom toolbox, and enjoy your streamlined system.. :)

Following these steps, you accomplish 4 things:

a) you streamline your software to your system

b) you streamline your software to your personal preferences

c) you can recover from step 6 above, if the kernel doesn't perform to your standards

d) you've pretty much got your system set up how YOU want it, and now just have to restore whatever apps you had previously installed

Q&A:

Q: Is this time consuming?

A: A bit

Q: Is it worth the time consumption?

A: You bet your bottom dollar, it is! ;) Because it will save you a LOT of headache in the long-run.

** If you want facelock, flash the gapps facelock-0131 back to back (meaning, don't reboot before flashing the facelock one) with the regular gapps, the regular one coming first - don't squabble over the dates: as far as I can tell, the only difference the facelock gapps does, is add that feature, but if you reverse this, the later gapps can, and more than likely, will, overwrite the facelock one, causing the facelock feature to be unavailable - I've ran into this issue plenty of times.

Like I said, this is generally how

I

do things. Your procedure may differ, and your mileage may vary, but this has

always

worked for me.

I hope this helps anyone out there who is having a difficult time flashing the various combos and helps in avoiding the glitches that, 9 times out of 10, come from flashing.

Thank you for your time.

(This has been a public service announcement from ~Wickid_D~. Please be sure to leave any and all thanks below. ;) )
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] LeftonJackman:
I follow almost the identical steps you outlined when I flash and I agree, saves A LOT of headaches. Thx.

I keep having issues with LCD Density. I have mine set to 200. After a few days, certain apps on the market will disappear and I have to keep going back through the process of resetting / clearing market data, reboot, etc to get an app, then it will work for a while and then it breaks again... Anyone else having these issues?

Also my Pandora does not work on 3G at all, it will just skip from one track to the next without even playing anything. Works flawlessly on Wifi. My Google Music works fine on 3G. Any ideas on this?

I'm on build 40 w/ Matr1x v22 cfs
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bobtsunam:
I don't know about the rest, but I was having an issue with Pandora a few days ago. Was doing the same thing, skipping from track to track without loading past 1%. I ended up downgrading to a backup to get it to work. I don't know if it was recent from builds or recent versions of Pandora but the downgrade fixed it for me.

I'm also running the same setup as you.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. The wallpaper thing starts off annoying but you start to forget about it.

Thanks Devs! :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ebs512:
Curious to see what has changed in m6 from b40 because they look and feel very similar...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] the1dynasty:
Milestone builds are just another term for "stable release" that aokp puts out... the other builds like b40 and earlier are the sorta test builds that might contain bugs... Milestones are supposed to be big free...

So it might just feel like b40 because essentially it is with just some extra kinks ironed out...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Kevin cracolici:
Hate to wait

So I dropped the NS4G today and wouldn't ya know it, screen cracked, not the end of the world, but the display won't come on either so virtually useless... and on the eve that M6 drops.... dannnnnng it.... oh well guess will start from scratch when insurance replacement gets here on tuesday or wednesday i hope...

I took my NS4G to Sprint on Friday to see if they could fix the sticking power button (they can't). They said NS4G repacements are backordered so I won't get my repacement til at least Wednesday too :( They offered me a Photon. I declined. But after reading about the Photon, it seems like a beefy phone. And AOKP is available on it! Hmm....

I'm off-contract and they practically salivated pushing me to upgrade. Sadly, when I did a speed comparison of Maps on the demo GS3 and my NS4G (both on 3G), my NS4G was actually quicker bringing up the complete map. The GS3 is a really fast phone but Sprint's 3G doesn't do it justice. Someone else said it best: It's like driving a Ferarri in the breakdown lane with Sprint's 3G.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] BigBadBuddy:
FWIW, I just upgraded one of my two NS4Gs and was looking at the GS3 and the Gnex. I liked the extra features and sd slot on the GS3, but ultimately opted for the Gnex and I'm really happy with it. My remaining NS4G feels like a toy compared to the Gnex and is much more mature in the developer community.

Funny thing is, the dude tried to talk me into the GS3 because "it would handle Jelly Bean much better than the Gnex".

Well from what I read on aokp, they will be starting from scratch with jb and not merging it with existing ics code... if that's true, I wouldn't expect a rom from aokp right away... nothing with the features that this rom has at least... look at how long it took CM to get a stable release of ics and you'll have an idea of what to expect...

I just hope aokp uses CM toggles with their switches as an option... currently that's the one thing I don't like about aokp based ROMs... but that's just me :)

Hey guys, just got my NS4g from my Optimus S. BIG upgrade! I've rooted and rom'd in the past, so generally know how it works.

I CM9 RC1'd my phone but am looking for something more stable and smoother -- is this one my choice? Any other rom recommendations? I installed Matrix22 as well.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Snuffalofagus:
AOKP is stable as far as milestone releases go. Its your preference that counts though, test several ROMs and see which ones you like and don't like. For AOKP, milestone 6 is the latest and last release using Android 4.0.4 before the team begins working on 4.1 Jelly Bean builds. I'm almost certain its the most stable release of 4.0.4 AOKP. Only known issue all throughout all releases is SMS split. Give it a try, see what you like.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ajskhan:
Thanks. I have it installed and am playing with it atm. I have a couple questions and probably will have more as time goes:

1. How do I OC? The max cpu only goes up to 1000mhz!

2. Is there a way to make the toggle buttons smaller?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Krayvon:
!

1.Flash Matrix Kernel 22cfs and you can go up to 1460.( make a cache wipe before you flash it)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1361478

2. you have 2 options as far as toggles go, i usually go with the modern one and hide the text , it makes it take less room.

hope this helps.
