[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddb540:
I've had my Nexus S since official launch day in late 2010. I still love it. I've been mildly tempted to replace it with the Galaxy Nexus a few times.

I'm somewhere in the middle between amateur and power-user. I enjoy rooting my device and installing custom roms, but I don't go beyond that. Also, once I find a rom that works well for me, I generally keep it for several months or more.

I'm trying to figure out what is potentially on the horizon that I should find exciting in the mobile device world - any thoughts? I'm asking more about things that actually improve my daily use of the phone. Right now, I have email and calendar push-sync (important for work), fast web browsing pretty much anywhere I go (typically getting 3-6Mbps anywhere I am), and can easily stream movies and music. What could I ask for that would actually improve my phone experience?

1. Bigger screen - obviously has its ups and downs - for me wouldn't make any positive impact.

2. Higher resolution - this is cool, and was one of the main reasons I was tempted by Galaxy Nexus, but again, wouldn't actually make any difference to me. I don't have any interest in gaming on my phone, beyond Angry Birds or Cut the Rope-type games.

3. Better camera - always nice, but for my use, the camera on Nexus S is more than adequate.

4. Faster data speeds - wouldn't help me at all. As long as I can stream TV and movies (which I already can), I have no need for anything faster, particularly if batter life is impacted.

5. Updated OS - this is probably what would tempt me most, due to my incessant need to always run the newest software available. Not sure what actual improvements it will have, though...

I guess my point is, I look at the latest and greatest devices out there (GS3, OneX, etc.), and I think to myself, "If I had that device, what benefits would I have compared to my Nexus S". And honestly, I can't think of a single one.

Any thoughts!

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eudennis:
I think almost the same as you. Thinking about change my Nexus S, but it make almost everything I need already. If I change, it's only too see something new, hehe.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddb540:
I think part of this speaks to how great the Nexus S is. In nearly 18 months of bigger screens, dual-core and quad-core, higher resolution, bigger batteries, LTE, etc., I've barely even been tempted to switch. I think that Google pushing out ICS to the Nexus S so early was a huge "lift" to my deciding to hang onto it for so long.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
The nexus S has a more compact design and better audio both from speaker and headphones. The camera isnt better on the galaxy nexus, only video recording is. The screen is higher resolution but has so many horror stories about it. I personally didnt like the colors that much on the galaxy nexus especially the whites which were the worst I have ever seen on an AMOLED screen. But apparently there are good and bad screens of galaxy nexus so maybe I saw the bad one.

The most tempting thing for me is dual core CPU and 1GB ram, 2 areas where the nexus S is notably behind now and it really does enhance smartphone experience to have dual core CPU and more ram. And obviously it will get updates faster in the future provided the nexus S gets anything at all which it may not after 4.0.4.

The galaxy nexus also looks so damn epic, one of the best looking android phones for sure. And textured plastic back >>> glossy plastic anyday.

The disappointing parts of the galaxy nexus for me are,

- screen is not as good as reviews would have you believe

- speaker sound is disastrous

- Not much of an upgrade in GPU from nexus S, just higher clocks

- too big

I suppose since you are an i9020 owner it would be easier for you to switch to galaxy nexus since you are used to SAMOLED screens. I have an i9023 and just love the SC-LCD on it, the galaxy nexus screen seems like too many compromises for those infinite blacks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cplovero:
same dilemma

Same issue as me, not sure whether I should upgrade or not. I've always been a "nexus behind" in that I held onto the N1 when the NS came out and only bought the NS when the GN came out. It's been cheaper for me since I had to pinch money in college.

Now that I have a job and income, I'm really tempted to finally catch up and buy the GN even though I'm extremely satisfied with my NS...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddb540:
For "daily driving" of web browsing/email/calendar/movies/music, how does dual core CPU and more RAM make a difference? Maybe faster app switching, smoother OS performance?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
Web browsing can max up nexus S ram pretty quickly which causes lag and launcher redraw on exit. Web browsing is perhaps the biggest advantage of dual core and 1GB ram especially if you like to use desktop versions.

There can be serious lag in doing anything when an app is being updated in the background I had to turn off automatic update for that and I think the single core CPU might be to blame for that.

With more ram you can run more third party apps that have background services. The ram is perhaps the biggest limitation of nexus S. It's almost impossible to play games smoothly when you are online on skype because it eats so much ram.

And lastly there are a few games now which lag on nexus S and I believe again the ram or CPU are to blame for that as we have very good GPU for our resolution.

But when it comes to screen and sound, nexus still holds its own against the new phones and provides a very satisfying multimedia experience.

I am personally still thoroughly satisfied with nexus S overall and will wait for the next nexus phone(or series of phones) to come.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejatds:
happy with my nexus s, but if I had the chance and was able to afford it, I'd ditch it for the GS3 any day :)

why i want to upgrade:

1. more RAM, power.

---------- DEFINITELY something I found myself always wanting while watching videos on the browser.

---------- Annoying waiting for important apps such as dialer/camera to load up.

2. larger, hd screen. (especially for watching videos; something i do often)

3. camera
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al_madd:
I also just wait for next nexus this december..

Buying galaxy nexus seem not worth it for me..:D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjay3333:
I agree about waiting on the next Nexus release. I really like my NS still and I skipped out on the Galaxy Nexus. Now that we know a SERIES of Nexus's ( :what: ) are coming I'm definitely holding out. The S3 sounds great but the new Nexus line may out shine that later this year.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordPhong:
I'd have to agree with everyone about the NS shortcomings when compared to today's phones. To add to the list is the internal sdcard. I will NEVER get another phone without a removable sdcard. 16GB is just not enough.

Unfortunately, my NS is also sensitive to overclocking and crashes often even with raised voltage. Anyway, it's still a good phone holding it's own for 18mos.

PS: i, too, will wait for the next Nexus.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lazer Bear:
I would also say ram and cpu are pretty big improvements.. Although I'm waiting for the next nexus as well. It's only a few months away and it's gonna blow the gnex out of the water for sure.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddb540:
Good explanation, thanks! Glad to hear that the RAM and CPU improvements will make a nice difference in my next device, even for daily tasks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddb540:
What do you use to fill all this storage? I used to hold music on my phone and quickly maxed out the 16GB limit, but Google Music has completely obviated my need to hold files locally.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Some people aren't lucky enough to have multi-GB or unlimited data plans, let alone decent service to begin with. I'm also weary of sound quality with many online services too - i know what's going on with my own files.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boenklon2:
Couldnt agree more with this.

I think it would be wiser if waiting for the next nexus:)

Gnex is good but is not good enough:D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stilljk:
For some reason I've never actually been attracted to the thought of replacing my NS with GN. I'm happy with my NS and recently, I've been tempted to get the SGS3. I've been tempted but my NS does everything I need and well, I think I'll wait till the next Nexus device shows up. Long live NS! :D
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whtmgcwmn:
I tried to install CM9 to my kindle, but I didn't realize I was supposed to install TWRP first. I am stuck at the yellow triangle, can't get into recovery (of any sort).

When I plug in the USB cable I type in

fastboot getvar product

which returns: kindle.

I tried to push TWRP using

fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-blaze-2.1.1.img

and it returns: sending 'recovery' (5568 KB) but nothing ever happens.

I have tried draining the battery and recharging it completely. I have been able to get into recovery before by tapping the power button but don't seem to be able to do it anymore.

adb doesn't work at all. I should mention I am on a mac so KFU didn't work for me either.

I promise to be more careful in the future, can someone please help me save my kindle?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Try omitting the "-i 0x1949" from your command and flash it again.

EDIT: While you're at it, download TWRP again and confirm its md5 checksum before flashing it again.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whtmgcwmn:
md5 is ok, I tried without the switch as well still nothing :(
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
What recovery did you use to flash CM9 in the first place? What happens when you try to boot into the system?

I'm starting to recall some people having problems with the mac version of fastboot. Do you have another OS available just to compare things?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailanb13:
in my case the commands only return "is <waiting device>"
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whtmgcwmn:
I had CWM I believe it's still in there somewhere. But I can't get to it anymore. Sometimes I think CM9 is going to start up because I do get the splash screen but it just goes on for like 15 minutes then the kindle restarts and goes back to the yellow triangle of doom.

EDIT: No unfortunately all I have is the mac
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:

and make sure your drivers are working properly.

I hope you weren't using Hashcode's CWMR...

In any case, I believe I've seen another user struggle with fastboot on the mac. You might be having the same problem, but I can't find that thread. You might want to look into building Ubuntu Linux on a USB stick and try running that on your mac. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for someone who's used those tools on the mac to chime in here. I've never played around with it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whtmgcwmn:
I have no idea which CWM I have. I couldn't find the mac fastboot thread either, I guess I will just put it away for now until I get access to a pc.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Looking above there is a good chance twrp sent I'm pretty sure now all you need to do is reset your bootmode

fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000

fastboot reboot
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chamnv:
Do you try use factory cable? If not, let factory cable and run command

fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Not to just sit here and tromp on your toes chamnv but the title of this thread is "kindle stuck in fastboot mode but wont accept commands" my impression of a factory cable is that it puts you in fastboot and secondly above he has attempted to send a new recovery why would he then send an old one?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
sorry to laugh but hehehe:-)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paraxda2:
Just unplug the KF from the USB, hold the power button and turn it back on. Repeat the process.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AirForceAngler:
I was rooted for a while using the Revolutionary method, but decided to return my phone to stock due to some other issues I was having with it. My question now is, I still have S-Off with 2.3.4, will it accept the ICS OTA update if/when it comes out? Thanks in advance!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] slacka-vt:
If you are on the stock ROM with stock recovery, you will receive, and more importantly, be able to install, the OTA even if you have s-off. The most important part is to have stock recovery because the OTA needs it to perform the upgrade.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AirForceAngler:
Thanks! How can I verify if I have the stock recovery?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Travisdroidx2:
Do you really need the OTA. I bet once the official ics drops these devs will have something stable to flash very soon after release. Then you can use what ever recovery you choose.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Archangel:

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Deadwing_Sk:
Hey I'm in India and my Galaxy R (2.3.5, NOT Rooted) is really buggy. Sometimes the screen randomly goes off after a call, and won't start up.

After calls, or playing music, The audio suddenly goes off and I can't hear anyone on call or anything.

A restart fixes this problem, but it's really annoying.

I Googled my problem and most users have fixed theirs by Updating their phone to firmware 2.3.6 Taiwan OFW.

I'm not sure how this works, or whether the rom will work in India or not.

I've downloaded the rom from samsung-updates .com

I downloaded the 11/5/2012 Taiwan Rom.

Can someone explain to me how I should flash this rom? Is it safe? Will my phone get bricked?

I have an N1 and the camera and flash suddenly stopped working. I'm also burning through battery life in about half the normal time. I suspect this is a software issue.

The phone is rooted but the ROM is stock. Currently have version 2.3.6, Build number GRK39F.

How do I flash back to froyo from gingerbread?

2. FuguMod kernel

Hey, sorry if this has been already posted (I couldn't find anything related to this even searching deep).

As the title says, is there any camera.apk with those mods? Or at least a how-to guide to hack the original camera.apk. I can't seem for the life of me to find any of these, the closest I found is a mod for gt-i9003 (gb) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1453547) which does not even run on gt-i9100, and, of course, does not tell how the op hacked the original app.

Why is this? Afaik is not THAT hard to mod the camera app, and taking photos with power button would be an amazing feature.

Hope I'm not missing something terribly stupid or obvious -If so please just tell me-.

Thanks in advance guys.

It is a bit tricky but possible to flash the Indian ROM on a Chinese phone.

First of all you will need MobileOdin or some other method, just load the MD5 file into mobileodin and flash. If you use ODIN remove MLO, Modem and SBL with total commander or something else, remove the md5 extension and Odin will flash it.

You will be stuck at recovery after reboot, you will need the bootloader from the Chinese ICS ROM leaked a month ago, go into download mode and flash the bootloader.

first boot will go into recovery again, reboot again and the ROM will finish it's setup, if still sticking, remove battery and reboot
