[HTC Incredible S] MrSenne:
Hmm, okay, then I'll have to do it without making a back-up.

And is there an easy way to switch between ROM's? Without using a computer.
[HTC Incredible S] fallenwout:
It is very easy to change roms. They are stored in zip-format on your sdcard which you can browse to with clockwork. Also the nandroidbackups are stored on your sdcard and can also be chosen with clockwork.

Experience tells me that you still need to flash the boot.img of the rom manually after you flashed the rom (something to do with clockwork not able to write in boot partition while in recovery-mode, you have to be in fastboot-mode). Flashing the boot.img litterly takes 2 secs to upload, done, and reboot.

So it is no big deal to swich:

- boot in recovery

- browse to the desired rom/backup

- start and wait 5 mins

- boot in fastboot

- connect to pc and flash boot.img

- wait 2 secs and reboot

Do not flash when you need the phone and there is no pc around. If it goes wrong, you need your usb pc to fix things.
[HTC Incredible S] MrSenne:
I heard something about Rommanager, can I use this and what does it do excactly?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
ROM Manager is an app that works with ClockworkMod recovery to keep it up to date and allows you to make and manage CWM nandroid backups and manage partitions on your SD card. The paid version also allows you to download custom ROMs and flash them.

It requires root access in order to run.
[HTC Incredible S] MrSenne:
But it's not a necessary application?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
No, not really.
[HTC Incredible S] MrSenne:
Ok, propably I'll try it this evening. :)
[HTC Incredible S] MrSenne:
Thanks for everything who helped me, I followed the tutorial and everything is working fine. :)

You may want to brush up your Java skills a bit on classes and packaging. Then, you can download the Android SDK which comes with an emulator to test your programs. To design GUIs, you will have to download and install the Android Eclipse plugin, which is available alongside the SDK.

Hi, I have the Nexus S i9023 (EU Version) and when i tried to flash an ICS rom it's first booting up ok but after I turn the device of and then turn it on it is keep getting a bootloop..

I've tried different roms or kernels but it still happens..

Any help??

BTW I can get back on GB so it's not a brick problem...

How about the stock OTA? That should work allright. If not, there might be some problem with your phone, but I seriously doubt it.

Are you making any changes after the initial boot? I know I can't change the Dalvik VM without a constant bootloop and having to reflash the ROM to reset the Dalvik VM setting.
[Kindle Fire General] tbong777:
Just picked up a used i9100 for the wife here. Then I noticed the Note. I thought I probably should have given her my i(100 and purchased a note since I am a gadget freak and my eyes are not what they used. She wanted to buy me a Kindle Fire for Christmas but I really did not think I would use it as I already have the i9100 and could not see the benefit other than a limited product with a larger screen. Been following these development threads though to see what capabilities are being developed.

The question is. Why would not people buy the Note and have the best of all worlds? Other than the financial reasons of course. Do people carry this around with their Android phones?

Is the Fire able to be turned into a full fledged Captivate type product without the communications of course?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
My phone is not a tablet. I take it with me everywhere (My wife thinks it is perm attached to me). I don't take a tablet with me everywhere.

I use my tablet for things that I don't use my phone for because it has a larger screen.

I many times use my phone and tablet at the same time (support calls). This is harder to do with just one device without accidently hanging up or having the battery bomb on you.

As for WiFi, I would only buy a WiFi enabled device rather than a 3g device because I already have a paid 4G hotspot. Makes no sense to purchase another data plan for every device I need network access for when I can share the one device.

I prefer this over tethering to my phone because 1) It is faster, my phone only has 3G now 2) It doesn't affect my phones battery which lets me use it longer 3) It has its own separate data plan I can keep track of.

[Kindle Fire General] marty331:
I'm running CM7 on my kindle fire, so now it looks and feels nothing like it did out of the box. I have the kindle app on it for books, so I did not lose that functionality. I gained a ton more by putting a custom ROM on it.

Basically the kindle fire is an Android tablet waiting for someone to free it once it gets a home.

[Kindle Fire General] s0urc3:
Agreeing here 100%. There are things I use a phone for (calls, texts, quick searches, facebook/reddit mail) and then there are things I use a tablet for (books, longer internet reads, articles) and then there are things that I use a notebook for (games, work, typing). I'm a firm believer in the "right tool for the right job" methodology, and the Kindle Fire does everything between the phone and the notebook.

Can't beat $200 for something that does everything I need it to in order to fill the space in between!
[Intercept General] freealley10:
im going to running verizon prepaid on my intercept, as long as i can make a verizon branded type rom, how would i build a rom to work on the intercept, i already have everything ready inside the phone, but when i try to call i get a message, we cant authenticate your phone. So what do i have to do to get atleast voice and text working? i know about the eri.xml and stuff but when i replace it in the framework it doesnt work right, phone.apk fc's, mms, cfsc.apk fc's, all kinds of stuff, the only rom i have tried and got it almost was cm6, but only for a minute, and the phone did not work still, when i dial *228 it activates successfully and everything so why cant i call? can someone here please help me?

[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
Quadrant is pretty garbage imo. I keep seeing videos on youtube of 2 phones starting quadrant at the same time, 1 phone finishing 5-10 seconds ahead of the other but still losing the benchmark #'s with most results (fps in the testing) appearing the same. If it was decent the faster phone would always get the higher benchmark, 2 phones render 1k frames, phone 1 in 10 seconds, phone 2 in 20, fps on phone 1 must be higher... etc etc I'd try maybe smartbench or glbenchmark
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
I've started using antutu benchmark since it breaks the score down and allows you to run custom tests
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
If you're looking for other benchmark apps with other numbers I found this thread where a user posted a list of benchmarks on an optimus 3d (basically same hardware as our phone) after installing an optimus 2x performance tweak.

Hello, everyone!

I have a Nexus S from Rogers, Canada.

The Build number is GRK39F

Baseband: I9020AUCKF1

I'm running 2.3.6 and I'd like to know if anyone here has updated to ICS successfully with this phone. I want to force the update but I'm in doubt if it is currently working well.

Anyone?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eniac77:
No official OTA for the I9020A yet, but you could always flash a custom ROM from the development section if you are rooted.

Still waiting for the official OTA for my Nexus as well, but I think I am going to try CM9.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_real_nwags:
I9020A ICS Update

My experience with the AT&T/US version is that I was on 2.3.5 and would not get any other OTA updates.

I did manually update to 2.3.6 and did not experience issues with it.

I then unlocked the bootloader and rooted. No change to experience.

I then flashed the official full 4.0.3 ROM for the I9020T (at my own risk!) and then flashed a compatible radio and did not have any serious functionality issues, but did experience quite a performance lag.

Based on this experience, my take is that there is much to be done for the official I9020A ICS ROM with acceptable performance, and if you are going to wait for official, you are probably going to be waiting for a while.

I have been very pleased with the performance of a custom ROM dedicated to the stock ICS experience along with the recommended custom kernel. Blazing fast compared to my short experience with the official. I have done this all at some risk, but the XDA community is pretty awesome and with a lot of reading of feedback put me at ease and made it very easy to experiment.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmlbm:
I feel your pain

Same situation as you, forcing the checkin doesn't work because there simply isn't an OTA yet for the 9020a

hope it get's here soon!

Cheers,

Worked for me

I have a Nexus S from Fido and I'm using ICS.

I flashed this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20456900&postcount=1

I didn't have to flash a different radio or anything. It all seems to work great. Should be the same for Rogers network.

Hope that helps.

ICS on Rogers 9020A

I did the same as ProfBurz yesterday. So far so good. no issues with battery life of reboots. Having some fun with my work exchange account right now but I'm not sure that has anything to do with this ROM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] profburnz:
My exchange account works

My work email is functioning fine. It didn't work the first few times I tried though. No idea why, I rebooted the phone and it worked.

One thing I notice is my contacts with pictures show up pixelated when someone calls. Wrong image size or something? They look fine in text messaging, just show up enlarged when calling.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toonhead85:
I have a i9020a on AT&T and here is my ICS info:

Verision: 4.0.3

Baseband Version: I9020xxKB3

Kernel Version (stock): 3.0.8-gb55e9ac; android-build@apa28#1

I am also running Nova Launcher (beta 13).

My experience with this has been very good overal. I had some initial problems with data speeds with an earlier radio (can't remember which one), but with the new one (XXKB3) I'm getting about 2mbps down and 1mbps up which is good for the area I am in. I was watching last night at work and I got about 10 hours on a battery and I was only at about 46% then with moderate use (internet job searching some pandora streaming ect).

And just for clarification, this is the 4.0.3 ROM for the I9020T, as mentioned by the_real_nwags.

The few complaints I have are minimal and forgettable, but the app drawer takes a few seconds to open (slight lag), but once your in the drawer everything is silky smooth. The other issue I have is Google Wallet doesn't seem to work. Now whether that is my fault or not I can't be sure :confused:. The only other issue I have is while streaming Pandora, sometimes it will get stuck "Loading" the next song, but that usually happens right before a comercial, it normally goes right to the next track without a pause.

There is a slight lag to the system, but nothing horrible... I have used worse. So if your interested in trying ICS, this is a good start. I am thinking about trying a new kernal for increased cpu speeds, but I don't know about that yet.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singer2112:
I have a nexus s i9020A on rogers and as long as you flash a rom with no radio, like CM9 or cyberGR. I also have the AUCKF1 radio and 4.0.3 and all is well make sure to download the auckf1 radio just in case your radio goes wrong somehow. Good luck!

100% battery mod is a cosmetic fix. BLX will never go over 96%. If you do go over 96%, you'll damage your battery...

I'm using a cold color mod instead of voodoo colors. Voodoo color was never actually an 100% completed project. Because of the green flicker issue, voodoo color was not included in the kernel. Pawitp from team hacksung seems to be working on an alternative to voodoo color for the GalaxyS. I might try that in future release...

I'm aiming for a really stable kernel. Only features that I know work and that work well will go in.

Ya I tested it for most of yesterday. Franco kernel plans on being no Oct few governors. Just a basic stable kernel. So it doesn't offer the tweaks I want. It was a smooth kernel tho...I just like Steve's UV and slight oc plus the tweaks.

Just noticed the Franco kernel is the only ics one I've seen that flies threw I/o read/write. And his conservative tweaks are reportedly really good. Tho I'm a lazy fan(also won't be in Franco's it seems so another reason to stay).
