Galaxy Nexus

Just a misc post, I set this G Nexus up (CM9)

I liked a lot ICS in the GNexus, I played last night some good 5 hours with ICS roms in my Nexus-S and I didn't like it that much, system is gasping for RAM, there are some strange colors every time you turn off-on the screen, it rebooted once and SOD once. The Galaxy Nexus feels and looks very natural. in my Nexus-S I feel that everything looks huge.

The only thing I dislike about the GNexus is that the min Freq is 385Mhz!!, why so much?, the S has 100mhz.

Anyway the pics:

. . .

.

I installed very quickly CM9 on the S (only for the pics), going back to GB now.

FYI GNexus (Docomo unlocked) $460 no Tax US, Free 3 day shipping, New.
[Nexus S General] doc_v15:
Awesome!!!! Appreciated, thanks man! :D
[Nexus S General] wmdunn:
On the 11/25 kernel, I believe it's BFS. It is very quick, and the gamma/colors are quite good. I'm using the most recent version of GMaps from the market ... v6.4.0.
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
For the record, I'm at 211 hours uptime. The longest I've ever had so far since I got my phone. :)
[Nexus S General] thegtfusion:
My dads i9020T has now like 700hours uptime. Stock 2.3.6 unrooted.. everything stock.. also he gets like 3 days of batt life with moderate calling. Last morning when i checked his batt stats it showed 70% and 1 day on battery...

Ill take a screenshot when he gets home
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
Stock is stable, just the performance isn't stellar and there's a lot of little tweaks that you get to miss if you're coming from a custom ROM. And CM7 based ROMs all have the sleep of death/reboot bugs (which sucks).

If I only bring my phone to work and make a call or two I'm at around 70-75% after a day myself.
[Nexus S General] FaLCoN.007:
Very nice, the maximum I got was 200+ hours with stock rom (Gingerbread 2.3.6) and stock kernel. :)
[Nexus S General] thegtfusion:
Yep thats true.. I am sick of the speed of ICS (just horrobly slow). CM9+trinity or SLimICS and Bugless beast has been the best for me.. (ICS)

i want to go back to GB (most likely oxygen 2.3.2) but i want a ICS theme..
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
Forget about Oxygen then, because the latest version has no theme support. And it's not as easy as installing CM7 Theme Manager, the framework doesn't have the necessary modifications cooked in. Kinda miss my ICS theme too, it was so pretty. :(
[Nexus S General] thegtfusion:
yessss.... If someone could make a flashable theme.. it would be great!!!
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
I'd be interested in this too but lack the knowledge, and we have to face it, there's not a bunch of users still running custom Gingerbread roms.

It would be hard to find anyone willing to help, let alone the people at Oxygen.im which have pretty much stated they will not bring back theme support nor will they likely release a newer version of Oxygen since ICS was right about the corner.
[Nexus S General] wmdunn:
I've never run Oxygen 2.2.2 ... from the change log, it supported the theme chooser. Maybe worth a shot to find someone with a copy and give it a try.
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
About 2.2.2

about 2.2.2, I tried for a while before 2.3.2, it never crashed either.

CM7 themes work fine.

the only real problem for me is that the 2G/3G toggle doesn't work, if you use it(power widget, notif power) it will FC everything and you'll need to delete user data.

I did a lot of investigation and theme choose cannot be added to 2.3.2, something about frameworks, I tried flashing it from Nexus MV CM7. doesn't work.

Aparently users vote to remove it from oxygen, yeah that was before the nice ICS theme in the market was published.

I would love to have it back.

------------------

probably it is easier to fix the 3g/2g toggle in 2.2.2

-----------------

Theme choose voted down =(

[Nexus S General] xjerlzx:
any possible way to edit brightness level? without the use of thrid party app i wan the lowest to be lower
[Nexus S General] tmuka:
Thanks to this thread I'm now rocking oxygen and Franco. I had forgotten how fast the gb browser was! 150MB Free ram ftw!
[Nexus S General] xjerlzx:
anyway to change brightness level lower then stock?
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
There is no way to lower the lowest bigthness level.

if you are using a kernel that allows gamma adjustments, example: Franco. You can reduce the gamma levels in Settings/device settings. however it is not the same.
[Nexus S General] Androyed:
I updated to ICS a month ago, but I haven't been as happy as with GB... Not only is ICS slower for me, the battery life also worsened.

And now my Nexus S is bricked. Really bricked... If I will ever fix this, I will definitely try this combination. This ROM looks like it will solve both of my issues!
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
Caller issue solved

Hey Guys, if anybody still using this ROM.. I have a solution for the caller issue (cannot hear caller until hold-unhold)

Well, credit goes to bugeless pete, I extracted the phone apk and libaudio from his ROM.

I am not using the NS anymore but the person that is using it gave me feedback, and it is good testing: 3500 mins/month talking, a trillion of texts, etc.

I'm attaching them.

*Backup first

*phone apk goes to system\app (rw,r,r) You migh need to pull the battery after this

*libaudio.so rw,r,r (extract zip) and goes to system\lib

I think that was the only issue in the ROM

----------------------

In other news, I have tested other kernels:

*Francos latest kernel rebooted(phone sleeping at least 6 times/1month)

*Lynx's rebooted while in a call

Trying now lucid 3.0, since 1 week ago, no crashes.
[Nexus S General] wmdunn:
Hey Rob ... were the kernel issues with your NS?
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
Oh no, this is for the Nexus S.

Franco GB

Lynx GB

and Lucid GB

I'm using the Galaxy Nexus, but I keep a very very close eye to the Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] Igotsanevo4g:

[Nexus S General] wmdunn:
You're welcome. Here's the voodoo compatible version, if anyone is interested.
[Nexus S General] Androyed:
After a big fiasco with my i9023 Nexus S (bricked it totally), I decided I would only use the most stable rom there is. I still think GB is faster and has better battery life than ICS, at least on the Nexus S. ICS may look better and have more features, but I can live without them.

Any new tips? New kernel that even worked better? Or are you still happy with the current setup.
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
No more changes.

I still using Lucid 3.0 and I haven't seen any reboot.

After fixing the caller issue, I haven't find any other bug in the ROM, it is excellent.

I'm sure my Nexus S will die with this ROM on it.

I installed, again, the task killer, honestly I think it works, with out it, the free RAM sometimes go to <80mb, with the task killer it keeps it around 110mb. Besides that I reboot the phone every 2-5 days, just to refresh the RAM.
[Nexus S General] Androyed:
Sounds great!

I just want something stable. No more problems. No more flashing or whatever. Just one time rooting and flashing oxygen, and then that's it.Of course I want Voodoo Sound!

I just want a rom that works with a good battery life. I've seen enough from the rooting world by now... :p
[Nexus S General] xjerlzx:
Hey guys! I tried the nexus beam from with matrix cfs20 noop,100-800mhz on demand battery life is great!
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
Beacause every MB of free RAM counts:

*Attached You'll find a bit smaller(half the size of current FB) FB app (1.8.3), It has the new design and I notice that it usually displays comments even if the pics are not loaded.

*Suggestion to use Task killer froyo.

Settings> autokill freq> 2hrs or so.

uncheck apps like whats app, phone, sms, widgetlocker etc (so they don't get killed)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rechild.advancedtaskkillerfroyo&hl=en

using a task killer eliminates my need to reboot the phone to refresh RAM (When phone gets slow), I have heavy apps running all the time Gmail, Widget locker, delayed lock, whatsapp, Facebook.

*I use launcher pro (I notice it has low RAM footprint), it never gets updated but current version is bugless (just force portrait)

Still using Lucid 3.0 no crashes.

Disclamer: i found the FB app in the Web.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BootyWurk:
Hey guys, atm i use the CocaCola rom and the kernel that comes with it i think is fauxs kernel.

My battery life is pretty harsh and is down to 30% by like 4oclock everyday so i gotta charge it again

I'm just wondering what kernel and rom u guys prefer for the best battery performance

i realize the rom doesn't effect the battery life but just throw out which one u guys prefer :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garu12:
I like the faux kernel but its not really a battery saver unless you underclock and underovolt it seeing as it is overclocked be default. If you use things like bln then the "stockish" kernel has those features. Or you can flash the stock kernel over the rom which will give you good performance/batt seeing as this phone is no slouch by default. I fiddle back and forth.

I recently flashed cm7, works great. The only thing I'm having trouble is with the apps. I can't download the apps I had previously from the market because It says I have them installed already.

So how do I fix this/restore my apps?

thanks
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
Try and clear data for the market app and see if that works for you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Xery:
Erm, how exactly?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
If you go into settings and then applications. Find market under all and click clear data.

Part of my problem is that I don't have the market app installed
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cory.spicer:
Did you flash a Gapps package when you flashed your ROM? That will give you Market and other basic Google apps. I believe CM is packaged without an integrated Gapps loadout for legal reasons.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Xery:
No I didn't flash Gapps, I just installed market via apk, cleared the data but I can't use the market cause I cannot set up a profile that its asking for.

How would I go about this Gapps package?

There was no data to clear anyways.

About to try this

wipe data+cache

flash cm7

wipe data+cache

flash gapps
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cory.spicer:
If you wiped system, cache, and dalvik cache before you installed CM7, you shouldn't even need to wipe. You'll just reboot into recovery and flash the Gapps .zip just like you flashed your ROM.

As far as finding it, I'd just Google "cm7 Google apps" or "cm7 gapps", you'll find a download link for the .zip. Keep in mind that, unlike the ROM itself, the Gapps package isn't specific to one model phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Xery:
Thanks I'll try flashing gapps

It worked great, now im getting a server error in the market.

Also getting a network error trying to use weather

It broke my internet, completely. 3g and wifi
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
Which cm7 version are you using?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cory.spicer:
In that case you might want to start from scratch:

Boot into recovery -- nandroid backup -- factory reset -- wipe dalvik cache -- install cm7 -- flash gapps.

And yeah, check to make sure you're using a current stable cm7 build.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
What version of CM7 did you flash?

depending on the version of cm7, i would flash one of aero's kernals

When flashing a rom, are all the kernals and radios that are in the GSM section (that is what my phone is) usable interchangeably with each other? I wanted to make sure about this before I go ahead and do it and then find out the answer is a no and then have a broken phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CB620:
You can pretty much flash anything to anything(roms,kernels,baseband). Different roms with radios and kernels etc... Some will result in good performance, some will result in bad performance. Its always good to try and find a good combo that works best for you. Whatever you do just make a backup of your primary rom in case you dont like what you did and you can easily revert back. Something that may help you better is reading people signatures. I have tried different combos and im still testing as i go along because new updates of everything comes frequent here. Just give some things a try. You will be suprised.

Also have you rooted and unlocked your bootloader etc?

salut!

i have a problem - Home button does not work. even hardware keyboard home button doesn't work either

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1476307

only software Button Savior works

so far i see that none of

a)clockworkmod\format\*.*

b)cwm\wipe\*.*

c)systray\settings\privacy\factory reset

d)cwm\install zip with wipe (stock, bindroid10, overcome 123, overcome220)

cannot erase P7500 completely: even /system/media/audio/ringtones still contains my mp3's

i suppose that i have the software queue:

1)calculate coordinates of the touch (<--- here you poke your fingers)

2)convert touch coordinates to soft-buttons

3)send button code to kernel (<--- here hardware bluetooth keyboard enters)

4)decide an action to accomplish

5)accomplish the action (<--- here Button Savior software enters)

the error is probably in 3rd or 4th step of the process.

and none of wipe methods could erase enough files/configs to delete the Home button problem. i.e. none of wipe actions can reset 1-4 steps to default factory conditions.

even with options "Back up my Data - backup current settings and application data" and "Automatic restore - when reinstalling an application, backed up settings and data will be restored" having switched off i only managed to erase my ringtones: documents/videos and error weren't deleted.

finally, the question is:

how can i wipe my P7500 completely to delete the unknown files with error, and still have the way to flash a working ROM back?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AceTrader:
you can flash stock recovery and do a wipe from there. It will format even the SD card partition.

Also you flash a stock using ODIN which will completely refresh your tab.

i already had flashed stock P7500XWKL1_P7500XEUKL1_P7500XXKL3_HOME.tar.md5 through Odin and had no luck

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyno:
Most of the Questions around Wifi and credentials are the opposite of mine, they want to know where to find saved passwords or how to save them.

I'm trying to determine how to prevent Android from saving the Password when authenticating to a WAP, as we use expiring passwords that change every 2-3 minutes via RSA SecurID token.

At work we use:

802.1x EAP - PEAP

No Phase 2

No CA Cert

No user Cert

DO USE Identity

DO USE Password - RSA SecurID (Changes every couple minutes)

I'd like to figure out how to make droid prompt for a new password everytime it tries to Wifi Connect to a WAP at work, which can happens multiple times through out the day as I move around.

Currently, the droid saves the password (which expires every couple minutes) and then tries to use this expired password on the next reconnect, which locks out my account after a few retries.

So the options I can think of but, can't see a way to accomplish, are:

1. Don't save the password.

2. Prompt for credentials after any authentication failure.

3. Clear the saved password immediately.

Any one have any ideas?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahmat1:
Hi, I am having problems upgrading my phone from Darky's v9.2 Extreme Edition to DarkyRom v10.2 Resurrection.

After alot of forum reading/trial and error/semi-bricking I successfully installed v9.2 on my phone using heimdall.

Phone specs:

Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant (Canadian Bell)

GT-I9000

Firmware version: 2.2.1

Baseband version: I9000XXJPY

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9

Build: Darky's v9.2 Extreme Edition

I followed this guide to get version 9.2 installed using heimdall(darky-resurrection-edition-guide.1578 -sorry couldn't post url), I couldn't get any version to work using odin.

And now I've been using this guide to upgrade to 10.2, attempting installs with odin and heimdall, with no luck (darkyrom-v10-4-2-xwjw1.6577-sorry couldn't post url), doing the "long guide" outlined in the post.

After I try this guide my phone shows the DarkyRom logo and then infinitely reboots.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should try????? I've currently reflashed it back to v9.2.

I don't completely understand firmware versions, kernel versions, rom versions. I think I am running Froyo version, if thats whats 2.2.1 means. I have mainly been fooling around with this because the kies update semi-bricked my phone. Anyways, thanks for the help/suggestions :)

I also read in another thread on here to use the app DarkyOTA, in the app store it says that my device is not compatible with this app, so not sure if that is the proper route.
