Instant Messaging works now. I was having issues downloading text messages on Pete's ROM. I haven't noticed any other improvements so far.

I was also having trouble auto-connecting to wifi with Petes ROM and would frequently have to turn wifi off and back on to connect to my AP at home. Too early to tell if that is solved.

I think the best way to flash this is to use fastboot.

It is yellow. I changed slot and cable. This time it came up com4 instead of com6 but it still came up fail. I had downloaded the flashable zip and would try it but sort of need directions.

Ok... I am really getting confused. There are 2 different flashable zips now. Swap Goblin's and Pete's plus the Odin files. Which of the flashable are complete and ready to use if either. Are they both complete or do they have to have things added such as the radio or anything else. I know I'm fairly a newbie at this but I have done it quite a bit on my old moment but it has been a while. If flashed they go in the root correct. Some directions on this please... thanks

LOL.... apparently I don't either.... I want to flash swap goblin and the radio file to my phone... how do I go about it. I guess that is what I'm asking..
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] rasengan82:
If you check the latest nightly it's still labeled as 4.0.3. The reason is Peter needs the actual 4.0.4 sources to build it into his nightlies. For now only the proprietaries were merged into his build. I think the kernel was merged into the latest nightly as well.

Perhaps I can elaborate... Flashed 3 epics with odin 2 bricks, 1 success. All 3 were done the exact same way using the exact same cable. All three showed they were recognized by Odin,.meaning the cable was fine when the process started. The two bricked epics lost the ability to go into download mode. Rendering them useless for anything other than paper weights.

Not to mention the nook color that was also bricked with Odin.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] formula84:
Reason I brought this up is because on twitter he made it sound like the 4.0.4 leak was not needed to be flashed if you use his rom. i was bringing this to attention because while he grabbed the proprietaries the OS may have changes in there that we may not see if we flash his nightly.

I think I am going to run the stock OS for a bit to see if anything feels better. Its going to suck cause AOKP has spoiled me with options. lol
