you saw it at april 1'st. but it was first announced at march 30'th.

that's 2 days before april 1'st. so i think this is the real deal.

I am running HyperNonSense however I would like to use a Livewallpaper. Unfortunately the chef left that out to save space, so I need to find the .apk. Does anyone know where I can get the latest version that works with ICS ROMs?
[Android General] xofierif09:
Okay, so a few weeks back I rooted my Atrix. All went fine. After a while i started having some major issues. I couldn't get a lot of apps, because my devise was not supported on the markets. I started getting dead spots in my screen, and it just started just glitching out all the time. Also, some apps that I KNEW were supposed to be on the market I couldn't find on my phone.

Today I decided to factory reset. I backed up my contacts and photos to the sd card (for some reason it still deleted my photo's). I reset my phone. Now, I have a whole lot more problems.

Most of the dead spots are gone, I still have one, so that I will say is a non issue. I cannot update my phone. There is an update waiting for me to install, but when my phone goes to do it, it installs about 2/3rds of the way and then rolls back. No clue why, it just says the update cannot be installed.

Firefox and facebook (and others, these are just the ones I use the most) are non existent on the market place. I know they exist, but i cannot find them. I really am not sure why, but this is annoying. Apps are force closing all over the place.

I know there are other things wrong with it, I just can't think of anything else without bursting a vessel.

My phone has basically become useless. I am really tempted to see how many pieces I can get my lawnmower to turn it into. Any help at all will be very appreciated!

Oh, I have an ATT Atrix.

Hello Rotohammer, I really need your help.

I went through your article,

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=871021

I got first step done. what is modemswitch.zip?, where do I find it. how do I get Gscript on the SD card, its always installing on my internal memory directly.

I have unlocked my phone, but when I try to make a call it says not registered on network.

Also when I try to view the IMEI it says no IMEI null/null.

How can I fix these issues. Please help.

Thank you,

Had the upgrade and chose the xl beats, i tried the htcdev unlock process but each time i just get an error when i type the first command into the dos prompt, but my hboot does say locked too.

Is there any options to go through to see if i can unlock it and get s-off
[HTC Sensation XL] gdavies08:
The annoying part too is my xtc clip does not support the sensation which is a real pain, does anyone else get errors when trying to use htcdev to unlock the hboot
[HTC Sensation XL] AndroHero:
There is no s-off for the SXL yet. There is a donation thread in the dev section to get alpharev onboard though. As for unlocking your BL, it would be useful if you told people what the error is your getting.
[HTC Sensation XL] gdavies08:
Sorry i was meant to take a screen shot but forgot to add it on, here is the exact error i get.

the machine i was on was running windows 7 and the android platform was all installed but the drivers for the hboot side of the phone were not correct,

stuck it on my xp box and it worked perfect so now my bootloader is unlocked
[Nexus S General] rcklss1:
I've tried pretty much every ICS rom aside from MIUI and gb seems smoother to me. Granted its had more time to be refined and I understand that but the intermittent lag here and there and other little hiccups (the keyboard just closing on its own while I'm typing, some missed key presses) are annoying. I'm currently running IMM76 on my 9020a and its better than the last ones I tried (IMO anyway) but I still find myself debating going back to my gb backup or at least another gb rom... just curious if anyone else felt the same way or I just need to give ICS more time..

Edit: Just wanted to let you guys know after researching everybody's suggestions I finally ended up on the latest Bugless Beast nightly build paired with the Trinity 1200 MHz kernel and have been running smooth as can be. Thanks again to everyone who took the time to answer and give their suggestions :D
[Nexus S General] david279:
Left GB a long time ago.
[Nexus S General] marcelnn:
Yeah, used to do that back in December, when ICS came out. I was flashing GB back every 2-3 days but just couldn't stick with it knowing there's something newer. Eventually got over the small lags in ICS and been using it ever since. IMM76D is even better.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
I moved to a GNex last week, but I tried every ICS Rom for a while and ended up going back to Deck's GB. It's just smoother and faster. The Nexus S doesn't really have the RAM that ICS wants.
[Nexus S General] rcklss1:
David, marcellnn are you guys running a custom rom or just stock ics?
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
nope ICS really runs like butter for me to hard to go back with teh look of ICS and such
[Nexus S General] rcklss1:
Are you running a custom rom or stock ics?
[Nexus S General] marcelnn:
No, I'm running stock 4.0.4 now and the leaked 4.0.4 since the beginning of February. Before I was running stock 4.0.3, I've tried almost all custom ROMs and kernels in the dev section, but I don't need any OC, UV and that stuff.

And I'm rooted and unlocked, of course.
[Nexus S General] darius0519:
I left gb. Since official ics was released for nexus s. The UI of ics is much better in ics vs gb. Ics is also much faster vs gb. I always use custom roms since I started to enjoy the tweaks of a custom rom vs stock. Stock is boring for me.it doesn't have the pull down lock screen and notification. No toggles shortcut. No voodoo controls which allow me to listen to music while screen is off. No 3way reboot option. No bln that alerts when I received a notification. And much more.... :):D
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
im still on deodexed stock 2.3.7 and im fine with it. i havent found a reason to go ICS yet
[Nexus S General] thegtfusion:
try the ICS 4.0.4 OTA. I just installed it on my dad's I9020T and its buttery smooth.. My dad says it is alot faster than GB. (he knows nothing about root, custom roms and etc..)So if he says its faster (a complete noob) than it is definetely faster....
[Nexus S General] vidaljs:
Slim ICS uses a non ICS launcher so it has the GB feel.

Its smooth and blazing fast.

It got me away from GB so I'd highly recommend it.

Good luck
[Nexus S General] Nexism:
I have thought about what the switch to GB would be like. I could never take a step backwards when it comes to tech and software. I see a lot if people posting about "ICS BUGS" but I have had little to none (AOKP MATR1X NOVA) when I first switched there was a comfort thing but that passed quick enough.

I won't switch until a new OS roles out. Give my set up a try for a few days and see if it works better for you.

I see no reason to. 4.0.4 is leaps and bounds better than GB. All these quirks I keep hearing about from people I have never experienced. It just seems some people look for things to complain about. But come on. No piece of software is going to be entirely problem free.

Indeed Bugless Beast + Trinity 1200mhz proves to be a nice combo, only sad that camcorder and youtube wont work when you mix the two, something to do with the ram i suppose.

[Nexus S General] ColdKiller93:
I use ICS Codename + Matr1x but sometimes I miss GB...

I hate to have slowdowns everytime I browse the internet. But if I change back to GB I will miss HW acelleration from ICS. I loved MIUI on Gingerbread!!

Is there a MIUI Rom for our Nexus S out there, which has GB as a basis and all newer Tweaks from our ICS (BigMem,DeepIdle,BLN,HW accelleration) included?
[Nexus S General] ljordan2:
There's Brainmaster's GB MIUI rom. For the tweaks like bigmem, deep idle, bln, they are not from ics. We had also had them in the GB era. All you need is a GB kernel that supports those features. HW acceleration is ics feature. So no, you can't get that.
[Nexus S General] ColdKiller93:
Awesome :) Thanks! Now I just need a theme of the new MIUI V4 on the Brainmaster Rom and I'm happy forever ^^

Speaking again of Bugless Pete + Custom Kernel, i've tried:

Simplekernel 1.2 (+voodoo)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420542

Thalamus Kernel

http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=2275

Trinity T12 and T132 (+voodoo)

http://www.derkernel.com/ics-crespo-exp.html

The first 2 have lower benchmark than trinity but have camcorder + youtube working. Thalamus seems to oscilate from min/max the CPU without rest, seems a bit strange for an ondemand governor but the telephone behaves normally (have no idea on battery impact), im no expert.

I would say that in benchmarking order it would be Trinity T132>T12=Thalamus>Simplekernel. The choice falls under if you want a) youtube + camcorder, b) vodoo. For raw performance with no camcorder and youtube go trinity, if the cpu thing of thalamus proves not to eat battery its seems a nice choice (but with no voodoo) and simplekernel being the simplest with have it all. BUT as they are all fluid it just a matter of choice. Will be testing battery on Simplekernel, thats the one im with right now.
[Nexus S General] matheusrc:
I have been using ICS since the release. I am that kind of guy that cant sleep well knowing that there always needs to get the latest updates, :D

I would recommend the CM9, anyway. Their rom is really stable, i can tell that there is an organized cycle of developing/releasing.
[Nexus S General] PapaMika:
I left GB since ICS was officially released for NS. I knew it's laggy, but I can live with it for some time. Currently, I'm running MIUI. Still, I found it laggy. Do you guys have recommendation which kernel work best with MIUI? Thx
[Nexus S General] ColdKiller93:
I used MIUI together with AirKernel a long time but due to some reboots I had while listening to music I changed to Matr1x and everything is fine now :) Batterylife has also increased ;)

So my recommendation is Matr1x :D
[Nexus S General] Lazer Bear:
I'm on stock 4.0.4 (rooted) since yesterday and i find it extremely smooth.. Using apex launcher and disabled window and transition animations, much smoother than gb! Occasionally experiencing half a second of lag on phone app and whatsapp but that's about the only (minor) problem I can see.
[Nexus S General] TrIn@dOr:
I'n new on this, but ICS seems to be a lot more smoother that GB.

I did 2.3.6 > 4.0.3 and the received the notification for 4.0.4

After this, I did a Factory Reset and all went ok.

Battery issue is still there.
[Nexus S General] ljordan2:
What's the battery issue that you are talking about?
[Nexus S General] TrIn@dOr:
It does not last more than 5/6 hours... normal use of it... 1440mhrz
[Nexus S General] ljordan2:
1440ghz??!?:eek: You're lucky to get 5/6 hours with that setting. Also 1440ghz might damage your hardware. Trying using 1000ghz, since it's the standard clock speed for Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] TrIn@dOr:
Well, just copying from the back of the battery... 1440 mAh, 3.7V Li-ion battery...

And came with the phone, bought from a guy on eBay!

But still, you don't think getting 5/6 hours of battery live isn't an issue?
[Nexus S General] snowmanwithahat:
Still using Bugless Beast GPA19 (GB)... I'm on the Nexus S 4G though and I'm waiting for stock to come along... I'm tired of constantly flashing

Oh sorry man, I thought you were talking about clock speed:). Getting 5~6 hours is a problem. Try flashing a custom kernel.

Well, like every NOOB... I'm scare to do that!! :eek:

[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
so i ran the rooted odexed version for about 30 hours then i set something i couldnt make go away, so then i wiped everything and flashed the deodexed v. but then i couldnt download anything from the play store without getting some error 10 code. next i rewiped and reflashed the odexed v. and would only get server error when trying to go to the play store. so now i rewiped and reflashed my latest GB backup and everything works just fine.

i guess ics was ok while i had it but nothing really excited me about it. i guess ill try it some other time

EDIT: ehh whatever i just reflashed it again and everything is fine
[Nexus S General] Mizter:
I switched from GB awhile back but the only thing that might persuade me to go back is that sometimes my Google account sync doesn't work after flashing a rom (never had this happen with GB roms). The wifi and signal displays in the notification bars are greyed out and no matter what I do, I can't seem to get sync to work properly. Usually have to reflash and do the whole process again.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stompysan:
OK, so my brother has the HTC Evo, and he is having screen separation to the point where it is affecting day-to-day usage. There is extreme light-bleed and the touch screen flips out on occasion, requiring the device to be locked and unlocked. I have talked to a person that worked at a local store, and he said that it was acknowledged as a defect, and that they could exchange it for free (since he had the TEP). However, when we went today (had to unroot and turn S-On), a different employee said 1: He doesn't have the TEP, and 2: It isn't a defect. He said that I could pay $35 to exchange it for a different unit. However, the guy also said that the new unit would be a referb with no warranty from that store, just through HTC. So if it has the same issue, we would be out another $35.

So I am not sure what I can do. I checked my bill, and it does not have the TEP on that line, but I did ask for it when I activated the new line. I did, however, think of an idea, but I am not sure if it would work. I have TEP on my line. Would they be able to flip-flop the lines (I did this before), go to a different store, and try to exchange it with my TEP? Would they be able to tell that I had just switched the lines, and be able to deny me because of that?

Any ideas would be great. I don't want my brother to be stuck without a phone for a while. If all else fails, I am probably going to switch phones with him and let him keep my phone until I get an upgrade. He uses his phone a heck of a lot more than me, and I don't want him to be completely screwed out of a phone.
