How do I find out which version I'm currently using for TweakStock?

Look in settings > display settings. If you see something relevant to the clock, you are on 1.1 and thats what you need. If not, upgrade to it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xXJay_RXx:
Okay ive never had the Nexus S but I've had the Nexus One before and hands down, I loved that phone besides the annoying multitouch issue. But what I also liked was the dock that you simple slide the phone in portrait mode and the pin connectors from the phone and dock will connect, charging the phone. Anyone think the GNex will get something similar? I have seen how the pins have been used so far besides this car dock that I seen on the accessory sub forums. A Nexus One charging style dock would be good :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staticx57:
You would be happy to know that the Galaxy Nexus has its own multitouch problem so it will seem even that much more familiar. :p

That being said they have announced the dock you are looking for but have not yet released it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madsere:
I got this dock from ebay, $15 including shipping. Fits perfectly.

Only thing is, I though it was going to switch into a desk clock or something when it was docked. Nothing happens, screen just switches off after the usual delay. Maybe a "proper" dock using the metal-edge connectors are needed for this functionality. Anyone knows?

Hello Guys!

A friend of mine has Nexus S and he got an ICS OTA update from the carrier.

Now he can't send or receive any MMS. He has all the settings correct in the APN settings. Does anybody have such problems, should he install some custom rom (which one would you suggest?)

Thakn you for your answers,

Z
[Nexus S General] sphr:
I have the same problem on a i9020 (no letter noted behind the battery) bought in the UK, using it on telia in sweden. Can only send mms over wifi atm. If i downgrade to 2.3.6 i can send mms on the same radio.
[Nexus S General] csrxds:
Same problem here. I've been Googling for an answer in the past and it looks like some people (depending on the country and the carrier) had the problem solved by using the data APN settings for MMS's. However I could'nt succeed using this method. Right now I am waiting for the next update to fix it (It was working on 2.3.6). Anyway I'll stick to ICS as more and more people tend to have a smartphone with data enabled making MMS useless.
[Nexus S General] nolook:
this is also broken in my nexus s on Mobilicity Canada...hope there is a fix soon as it was perfect on gingerbread
[Nexus S General] boabsmith:
I had a similar problem when I got the nexus s simfree, but it was on gingerbread. I'm on o2 in the uk.

I had no connection to o2 at all. They were also unable to provide a working apn for the nexus s, I ended up getting proper apn settings from a user of the o2 forum.

When I installed ics (ota) update manually I never had the Same issue. Worked perfectly.
[Nexus S General] mELIANTE:
I also didn't have an issue after I applied the 2.3.6->4.0.3 update. The problem only appeared after wiping, so I suppose it's a configs issue?
[Nexus S General] el_psycho:
I have the same problem on ICS 4.0.3 OTA and i didn't wipe anything.

I think it's a well known ICS 4.0.3 bug.

How to modify a Nexus S for inductive charging on a touchstone:

-- Rod
[Nexus S General] VerminX:
I would perform this alteration but loss of NFC is a deal breaker.

Just when I got my free 10 bucks from Google wallet, I'm starting to warm up to using my phone for small purchases around town, so NFC is going to stay.

[Nexus S General] swamp goblin:
im not brave enough to attempt this, but it looks awesome :p nice work op
[Nexus S General] lehel.babos:
This seems like an awesome project... thinking of undertaking it myself. Couple of questions though.

Are any of the parts cannibalized from a Pre? Not sure if I'd want to invest in a Pre AND an induction charger just for the sake of this mod but if the touchstone is all you need I might just hunt one down.

How much power does the touchstone actually generate? The stock Nexus S charger is rated at 5V and 750mA if I remember right.

I know didly squat about the technical workings of induction charging. How come it isn't possible to charge through the NFC chip? What if the charging pad was shifted down towards the bottom of the phone a bit? *Ideally* it would be nice to keep the NFC capability. Or what about removing the NFC chip, sticking the charging pad to the inside of the case (as opposed to on the body) instead and reapplying the chip on top so the pins match up with the phone again? (obviously you'd just have to be careful as hell when removing the back plate.

Cool project none the less. Thumbs up!
[Nexus S General] rwhitby:
The only parts needed are from a Pre/Pre+ touchstone charging back. Nothing is needed from the Pre/Pre+ device itself.

Touchstone charging is less power than direct USB from a computer or wall outlet. Since you leave the device on the touchstone whenever you're not using it, that doesn't usually matter.

The NFC antenna interferes with the induction. It's quite possible that someone else can find an arrangement of those two coils which works for both.

-- Rod
[Nexus S General] lehel.babos:
Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated. I'm guessing this doesn't interfere with the actual function of the USB port right? (Both for charging and data transfer).
[Nexus S General] contradude:
Good to see you here, Rod. This mod looks very tempting but google wallet on my ns4g is a useful feature. Been missing my touchstone something fierce though.
[Nexus S General] rwhitby:
Not that I have been able to discern. It's electrically the same as using a powered USB Y-cable connected to the device.

-- Rod
[Nexus S General] madeincanon:
Thanks for posting this! I've actually had that Flickr page bookmarked for about a week. I've taken apart my NS4G, checked everything out and took some pictures, and successfully put it back together.

I tried taking out the inductive charger from my old Palm Pixi back cover, but realized its different and wouldn't work, so now I'm waiting on a Palm Prē back cover from Amazon to use.

I'm nervous taking on such a task. The most experience I've had with physically modding phones is switching the board from a Verizon Pixi+ to my Sprint Pixi so I could have WiFi on it. It doesn't look terribly confusing or difficult though.
[Nexus S General] rwhitby:
You must be very confident in your ability to solder *very* small components to get the connection to the USB 5V pin correct.

I stuffed it up the first time, and had to get a colleague to repair it, which took over an hour to do.

-- Rod
[Nexus S General] madeincanon:
Ouch.. The soldering step will be done by my friend, who is much more proficient in soldering than I am. I'm confident in his ability and hopefully everything will go smoothly.
[Nexus S General] lehel.babos:
I just ordered a Palm Pre Touchstone kit off of Amazon as well... can't wait for it to get here.

Thanks alot for the guide.

Soldering the USB connection will definitely take a delicate/precise touch but I'm hoping with a set of helping hands and a fine tip it should be okay. Though I think I'm going to do a sort of "soft mod" first.

I ordered a microusb cable as well that I plan on stripping and soldering the leads to that at first, instead of directly onto the board. That way I can a)get some practice and if it looks like I overestimated my soldering abilities, I only lost a cable as opposed to damaging the phone.... and b) test it out before fully committing... I'll see if I can find a way to house both the NFC and the coil within the case. If I strike gold and find a way to make both work than out comes the screwdriver and its time for the permanent mod. With any luck the parts will be here next week :)...
[Nexus S General] VOLTAGEROCK:
Question about GPS interference

-- Rod

Question for you. I simply just put the touchstone discs on the back cover so it would magnetically stay on my touchstone in the car, but ever since I did that, my GPS no longer works properly. Do you have issues with yours? Do the small metal discs interfere with the GPS antenna and especially, do they interfere when you have your nexus s on the energized touchstone where you have the magnets and the 5 volts generated from the coil as a possible GPS inhibitor? All I know is that my Nexus S which I just got a few days ago worked with the GPS. I then got started in the process of modding it to work with my 6 touchstones left over from my Pre, and once I put those discs on the back cover, my GPS has not worked properly at all. I even have a spare back cover that I put on and tried the navigation that way and it still would give me the big circle small circle, searching for GPS issues. Did I ruin the GPS antenna? Thanks.

Dan
[Nexus S General] woshini7298:
amazing！~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Nexus S General] kwibis:
This is probably because of the magnets in the charger. The s3 is the first with this type of charging and of course they do extensive testing to see the interferences and adjust the design accordingly. This option looks great but do you really know what it does to the rest of the phone? I guess it's not worth the risk to just have an awesome feature above a working phone.
[Nexus S General] VOLTAGEROCK:
That's why I was hoping that Rod could shed some light on his mod. Rods mod. I was also thinking of running a tiny wire up the inside of the phone that I would attach to the gps antenna that would hopefully get away from the magnets and discs. Its so simple to take this phone apart.

Hi

My phone has S-OFF

(H-BOOT 1.13.000, VIVO PVT SHIP S-OFF RL, RADIO 3805.04.03.27_M)

I want to clean install ROM with 2.3.5.

Is there an english vanilla version without any carrier software? If yes, where can i download it

Should i install vanilla version or custom ROM (e.g. Android Revolution HD - which seems to be 2.3.3) - I want to avoid any of that mobile service provider stuff.

what are the actuall steps now that i have S-OFF

1. Download ROM and put in the root folder

2. Restart with Vol+

3. Select Recovery

4. Done

is this correct?

Thanks a lot for your help
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I suggest you do a lot more reading. Have a look in the dev forum, read some user feedback and read a guide on how to install a custom rom because from the looks of things you haven't a clue.
[HTC Incredible S] shields360:
The sticky at the top by lynt Is a good topic. Tells you how to flash rom's etc. I found it useful anyway.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
As user 'nonverbose' has stated, you need to do a little more reading and research. You mentioned that you have S-OFF, but you didn't state whether you have installed a custom recovery or not. That piece is critical to being able to flash the custom, rooted ROMs for the IncS.

You would be wise to read the 'sticky' posts both here in the General section as well as the Development section where you will find the ROMs.

Finally when you read the sticky posts in the Development section, one of the posts has links to all of the different ROMs, including a rooted, unbranded, stock version of Android 2.3.5/Sense 3.0
[HTC Incredible S] keiichi_san:
As for ROMs, I would go with a custom one. You don't have to worry about carrier software as most of the ROMs have them removed already and have some cool optimizations.
[HTC Incredible S] htc_ddt:
Thanks everyone. I was doing some more reading and i guess these are the next steps

1. Install clockwork mode

2. flash with a ROM

I am thinking of installing one of these

SenseMOD Lite V2.1 [RCMix kernel]

RunnyDrOiD v3.0 By PVTEAM | Ultrafast & Smooth | 2.3.5 | Sense 3.5

CoreDroid Incredible S V2.2 |GB 2.3.5|SENSE 3.5|SUPER SMOOTH|ONLINE!

any reccomendations/suggestions?
[HTC Incredible S] shields360:
Tbh if your not to sure on what/how your doing things you could always try CyanogenMod 7.1. Its simple nothing needs to be done to it.

But on the other choices its all down to personal preference. Like I want to flash ARHD... but I just can't be bothered.
[HTC Incredible S] vladabiber:
I used this guide to root my phone. Without single issue. I recommend Virtuous affinity if you want sense 3.5 rom.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XXRay:
I have had the Galaxy Note for a month now and I have had 4 times randomly where it seems to have shut down. When I press the power button nothing happens, I have to take out the battery for it to get it started. I suspect maybe an app is the cause, are there any diagnostics programs for android phones that can log so you can see what causes the crash?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XXRay:
ROM version

Latest stock ROM, 2.3.6 XXKL7 kernel 2.6.35.7, since ICS is on it's way I thought to wait with using a Custom Rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mfractal:
Are you rooted? Custom Kernel maybe?

Also, no need to pull the battery, simply long press the power button for about 10 seconds and the phone will restart.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XXRay:
No root

Haven't changed anything yet, so no Root. I tried the 10seconds every time it happend but it doesn't work seems like it has crashed and only removing the battery will do the trick.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] YFY:
I had rather similar problem with my G. Note after about 1 month.

Problem seem to come from Android System failure and cannot read

the Ext SD card after some of the apps had been transferred to the

Ext SD. I am not quite sure why it behaved like that.

The phone just hanged and will not respond. I could power down by

pressing the power button. Then I would press power button for more

than 10 sec it will boot but after a short while will still hang. I would

then remove the Ext SD and try to re-boot and this time it will work

but those programs transferred to the Ext SD are no longer available.

Problem appeared to be due to the inability of Android reading the the

program(s) in the Ext SD. Uninstalling the programs seem to work.

The data in the Ext SD did not interfere with the working of the phone.

Deleting the program files in the hidden .android folder seem to do the

trick.

Can any of the Gurus or expect please advice on this and why it is behaving

like this? Is there a a diagnostic program that can assist in identifying the

problem? Will appreciate any assistance. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] peare:
Today my phone has shut down twice and I missed some important calls. I adore this phone but I have to ckeck constantly whether it is on or off. It is not really off, when I charge it I hear the connection sound. So it must be on but in a state of coma. OP can you see if we have the same problem? I am on stock and rooted, but I've been having this issue prior rooting. Pressing the power button for 15 or so seconds restarts the phone. Surely it is an app, but which one?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Nemesis_00:
I have a similar problem.

Running RocketROM R17 + CFRoot Kernel.

Some days it is fine, other days it can just hang twice a day, and I only notice it when I try to wake the GNote up.

Have no idea how to even start debugging it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ranjan.alva:
am using note since 2 months and i haven't faced such problem. and am suspecting this issue may be with some of the app or apps not responding properly. take all backup and try resetting your G note.

Hi all, I'm new here and to the android world,

I have a Q:

I am coming from the graphic design and Photoshop and I knew few things about camera and image processing and after looking in the camera app on android I cant find good app that can just take a pic without processing! (sharpening, noise redaction, etc)

I wonder why no 1 made such app that gives the user option to take the natural photo prom the sensor without the stupid image processing algorithm!

I want the natural photo and edit it later in pro software (Photoshop)

Is the app like this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
I'm not sure if it processes images by default as it has effects that can be manually applied in post photography which might mean it takes pictures unprocessed, but I use a replacement camera app called camera zoom fx and it takes much better pics than my phones default camera app so it might be an option to try.

It also has more pre photograph options and modes such as burst and timelapse modes and more ways to control how the picture is taken such as metering controls.

Its not free but there may be a trial version. I bought it when android market had a sale offer on its top apps but its worth even normal full price.

There are a handful of great camera apps, some free, some not. I like to use Nemus camera, Camera effects ,and Fast burst, these are all free apps.

3G and Team Eos FTW!

My 3G is working perfectly and exactly as slow as I remember it!! Thanks Team Eos! Here are a few things I noticed through testing:

When connected to wifi, I still have a connection to the 3G network (data is not active, but the bars are showing at the same time as the wifi bars, which the honeycomb version never did).

When I open notifications, the wifi bars show a grey 3G logo on the upper left)

Ran speednet and got 1.8Mbps down and .8 up (not that I would think the ROM would affect speed much…)

Strangely, I did not have to go through activation - it just started working automatically after disconnecting wifi.

GMaps and location services for HD Widgets worked perfectly.

Even the My Verizon app logged in successfully and showed data usage

Torch worked - didn't notice that was fixed in wingray 37…

Probably more related to new 10.3 Gapps, but the flashing "Updating" arrow never goes away now unless I swipe it…
