Possible Bug:

can anyone confirm this ... whenever i select someones elses sms from a conversation to forward to a 3rd party. the sms app consistently selects the wrong message first time to send ... and when you cancel it and select the same message again it works fine second time around.... im on the latest nightly

2g toggle bug. Its driving me crazy!!!

I have data toggle and 2g. Basically i turn in data select 2g then if i want to switch to 3g i Deselect 2g. But 3g wont work till i reboot my phone!!!! :(
[Nexus S Android Development] xda<3:
Yes this bug is pretty frequent on this rom.. And i've found it to happen on most roms and even on stock gingerbread for NS.

I would also like to report another small bug. Once sending a message sometimes the last word of the message will appear in the text field and I have to get rid of it. Pretty annoying after a while.

Hi all , is anyone have a "ring and notification" pb ?

i don t know why , but ( i think after reboot , don t remember ) my phone forgot the personal ring ... it say me , "unknow ring" i have to configure notification again ....

sorry my bad english ....

thank's
[Nexus S Android Development] Zorrich:
Yes i have same issue. Moved back to ginger bread because of it as I was missing sms's and calls. Admittedly, I am not using the default kernel because I need bln. This happens to me on air kernel and Steve Garon kernel.

Edit: just a note that this was on the last release. Haven't tried the new one yet, but I am waiting for an important call and don't want to test just yet.

Battery percentage should stay mods. I hope pete never puts them in the rom. You don't need to know the exact battery life at all time. It's called OCD ... lol

Anyway, android doesn't even know for sure how much battery you have left it a calculation and its no were near precise.
[Nexus S Android Development] android_nexus:
agreed, pete "the cleanest" + "the least MOD" = perfect!

the rest should be the addons of the users. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] :
while i agree that the mods should stay user-added... I think the "corrected" boot animation should come default!

[Nexus S Android Development] lvnatic:
How can some minor add-ons increase the the performance so much compared to the latest nightlies?

I must say that I'm very skeptical about your benchmarks, BB has always been the smoothest ROM I ever tried, definitely faster and more responsive then code name android, and that ROM has a higher score on your list.
[Nexus S Android Development] ljordan2:
Well higher benchmark does not necessarily means better user experience.

flashable zip for NS, here

[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
It's based on petes latest build March, 2. Will have to do it each build again. Flashing on other ROM then pete's won't work.

If anyone's interested, I modified the stock ICS low crappy brightness settings in framework-res.apk from

<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues">
<item>10</item>
<item>35</item>
<item>55</item>
<item>70</item>
<item>70</item>
<item>250</item>
</integer-array>

To

<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues">
<item>35</item>
<item>35</item>
<item>55</item>
<item>70</item>
<item>140</item>
<item>250</item>
</integer-array>

(source: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...rameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml)

The lowest setting was too dim compared to GB and I was annoyed by it. 3rd party apps like Lux helped, but they're annoying because Android blocks the OK confirmation button when sideloading apps (system security) + it runs a service in the background and its not as responsive as stock. I've attached the restore .zip as well.

[edit] I've looked up stock GB values (brightness was fine then) and it confirmed my theory :

Must be overridden in platform specific overlays -->
<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLevels">
<item>200</item>
<item>400</item>
<item>1000</item>
<item>3000</item>
</integer-array>

<!-- Array of output values for LCD backlight corresponding to the LUX values
in the config_autoBrightnessLevels array. This array should have size one greater
than the size of the config_autoBrightnessLevels array.
-->
<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues">
<item>35</item>
<item>55</item>
<item>70</item>
<item>70</item>
<item>250</item>
</integer-array>

(source: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...rameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml)

They added an extra low light brightness level for ICS and made it 10 (lowest was 35 in GB) to save battery or something lol. Still think Google could put an editor into stock Android itself OR make a system setting that remembers user brightness setting at certain sensor Lux level (so you could learn it by your needs). That way, everyone would be satisfied. But they're too busy coding Siri alternatives anyway.

Would be awesome if Pete would reconsider putting 35 as stock (or maybe goin back to GB values).

A while ago I asked if ppl had trouble sharing pics to picasa in this rom and some told me that it was caused by facebook sync. I managed to fix my problem and was able to share to picasa.

But since the last version, the problem came back. But facebook sync is already disabled. Is it just broken on the last rom or is there anything else I can do to fix this?

Edit: NWM, uninstalling fb app, rebooting and reinstalling app fixed it...
[Nexus S Android Development] :
is it just me, or is anyone else having some stability issues since the latest nightly? getting reboots during calls, music, idling, etc...
[Nexus S Android Development] ppascuzz:
I was too, however i'm not sure if it is the latest version of the rom or of steve's kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
i've been using the default kernel. i changed my clock to 1100 at the same time as updating to new nightly, so i'm going to try 1000 and see if it's clock-specific
[Nexus S Android Development] al_madd:
all this happened with full wipe??

I dont have this issue
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Nope. I wiped dalvik/cache and just updated on top. Will do a full wipe if this persists. Thanks.

[EDIT] Screw it. Biting the bullet. Going to full wipe and reflash. Bugger! Will report back if more problems.
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
I was running the latest nightly with the default kernel and didn't get any reboots.

Ondemand, deadline, 100/1000.

Perhaps you guys are getting reboots because of OC.
[Nexus S Android Development] rentaric:
Using this ROM as Pete uploads it.. no problems, no rebooting. On top great battery life. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] xda<3:
To flash a new nightly is it necessary to do full wipe or can I just flash it. I don't want to keep losing all my apps etc.
[Nexus S Android Development] rentaric:
I just wipe dalvik cache and cache when updating the ROM. This won't delete your apps and settings, but prevents from getting problem if/when eg Pete modifies the kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] xda<3:
CWM doesn't have an option to wipe dalvik cache, but ok I'll just wipe the cache partition from now on.

Has anyone experienced massive battery loss when playing music? I flashed this fresh on Thursday, been running Steve kernel, standard version at it's default settings and it's performance is great but when running music for an hour I get at least 30% drop. I use PlayerPro and it is updated.
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
I saw that you were using the same music app.

Why not trying other music apps and see if they'll make any difference?

I see that you don't like PowerAMP.

But you might want to give it a try to see if it could solve your problems.

One more thing, though. Was your mobile signal good when you were listening to music?

What I noticed from mine is that I don't have good signal reception here, and that explains why my battery drains faster than others'.
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
using sg kernel and it drains more compared to other kernel with deepidle. 15min on stock music app drained 5% with sg and 3% with air with deep idle... just my experience.

[Nexus S Android Development] steve.garon:
It weird that not everyone gets the same batt life. I did a 50min music playback test with my kernel and this rom and got 4% batt drain. Try using CFQ/Conservative with up freq at 80% and min freq at 30%.

[edit] Seems to be pushed out now, just got it.
[Nexus S Android Development] al_madd:

Force Market, clear data and uninstall updates. Then go back into the market. The app will ask you to accept Google Play terms and conditions. And it should update.

By uninstalling updates that means the Market version goes back to 3.3.1.2 instead of 3.4.4, am I right?

Yes, but when you complete the steps, i'll get the Play Store :) (build version 3.4.6)

if you integrate the app update into the rom it stays as the market in your launcher. So of you did that it would be the problem.

Works in romania as well. Try market unlocker to change your location. Also check your credit card on the account. Maybe something is wrong on the payment side.

I do remember when the market had that really cheap sale that I couldn't pay for any apps because my bank doesn't allow transactions below a certain amount, so check that as well.

Hey there,

I was wondering what happened to the sounds of the keyboard on this rom. Now, they only make a weird clicking sound, but before they sounded like a typewriter. This is an issue present in some roms, even during the 2.3 days. Can it be fixed on the user side or do you need to fix it somewhere on the rom's code?

Thanks, this is the best ics rom I've seen so far
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
Sounds are from GN, stock ICS has the same sounds as on GB. GN sounds = IMHO better
[Nexus S Android Development] antrobi3:
Running smooth and great battery life too with Morfic's T11 ANY kernel,i lost my boot animation but worth a try.
[Nexus S Android Development] Alcap12:
I happen to disagree:D

Is there any way to switch back?
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
Yeah, download a stock ICS .zip and copy files from /system/media to replace the ones on the phone.

Or at next flash replace files prior flashing BB.
[Nexus S Android Development] Alcap12:
Ty, I'll be trying that :)
[Nexus S Android Development] steve.garon:

[Nexus S Android Development] kokwei:
Will Pete consider implementing T9, and BLN into this ROM? I feel these are essentials, and BLN can be turned off for those who don't need them.
[Nexus S Android Development] rickbosch:
I doubt they'll make it in to be honest, the T9 dialler, maybe, but BLN is highly unlikely. Pete keeps it as close to stock as possible, so unless he has a change of heart and approach, it doesn't seem likely.
[Nexus S Android Development] al_madd:
BLN??just change custom kernel..you can use BLN..

for T9 dialer..you can mod it by yourself..
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
T9 dialer ain't stable. I guess he'll do BLN eventually, but integrate it into the ROM (no need for BLN app). For now, just use SimpleKernel which is basically stock ICS kernel + BLN (and Voodoo), been using it since january and is very stable, stock settings.

A useful modification would be including the optional power key camera shutter. I wanted to do it myself, but it's quite some work, not just the Camera app (rebuilding a single app vs the source is a breeze), but framework as well. Makes it easier to take self pics, even Pete would want that (lol) :D
[Nexus S Android Development] rickbosch:
I've just copied the CM9 camera to system/app, fix permissions and rebooted. not given me any problems so far.
