Problems?

I know that talk has dried up on faults and been steering towards the next development recently, but wanted to share a couple of issues I've been having and get your thoughts.

While using 3.6.0 I noticed that occasionally, while charging from USB, if I unplugged my phone the charging animations kept going and didn't show the battery draining (quicker than normal). If i didn't notice then the phones would die within a couple of hours. I cant recall this happening while using a mains charger so I'm assuming the issue is exclusive to USB charging.

I recently upgraded from 3.6.0 to 3.6.6 to try and resolve this - I skipped 3.6.5 due to being lazy at the time and was holding off the upgrade recently until the next development was released using Android 4.2 - but found that the problem continues. I did a clean install from 3.6.0 to 3.6.6 and restored none system apps using Titanium. I've also wiped and re-installed 3.6.6 again but the same happens. The only way to "resolve" it on a temporary measure it to restart the handset.

Additionally on 3.6.6, I've found that I cant connect the handset to my PC as a USB mass storage device. Using the inbuilt app it hangs before giving up or reboots the handset entirely. I installed another USB mass storage app and it worked a grand total of once. This wasn't an issue with 3.6.0 and it connects fine while the phone is in recovery.

So in short, 2 issues;

1 - When taken off USB charging, the phone doesn't always realise that it's happened and ends up draining the battery

2 - Unable to but the phone in USB mass storage mode while running the OS (works fine in recovery)

Any ideas? And sorry for the longish post.
[Nexus S Android Development] Ron Overdrive:
I would try rolling back to 4.1.2 stock or try a different rom like AOKP or CM to see if the problem persists on other roms. If it does there's a good chance it might be a hardware issue.
[Nexus S Android Development] Maxxd01:
First of all, I truly respect the developers work - many thanks for that.

But I find it unbelievable that the developer comes to the forum often (i've been stalking its last activity), and don't say a word to stop at once all the especulation regarding future Nexus S Codename version... I'm really ok if for some motive or another there are no future development for nexus s. I just would like to know something - i'm feeling a little stupid coming here everyday to look for any news.

P.S: I'm not a twitter nor g+ guy, so I have no idea if there is any useful information there. Altough, I noticed before posting that they intend to develop for 4.2. Still, it could be a word regarding this device in specific.

Just my two cents. My apologies if I hurt any feelings. One more time, I appreciate and I use the CNA work, but CNA could say something regarding this matter. I'm not criticizing or anything, but the fact is CNA silence making them lose users. There are a lot of people already switching to Slim Bean and other roms, which is a pitty, because CNA is probably the best rom I've ever have/had.
[Nexus S Android Development] triosakti:
since CNA is not only for Nexus S..

I think what he said in twitter (that he is building from 4.2) it could be for Galaxy Nexus or other (Nexus 4 maybe?)
[Nexus S Android Development] anshumandash:
The best part is I asked him on Twitter about 4.2 and Nexus s. He didn't bother to respond. So I think there is nothing coming for Nexus s.

good job...! and i don't care anymore about cna. #hopeless

[Nexus S Android Development] bunilla:
What ROM do you recommend? Stable and comparable to CNA.
[Nexus S Android Development] anshumandash:
If you are looking at features like CNA, the only comparable ROM is BlackBean. I am using it right now, BB6. Quite good. They are working on 4.2 and have told it would not be a problem for them to release 4.2 for Nexus S. But they have mentioned it will take some time for BB7 on 4.2 to come out for all devices. If you aren't looking at all features of CNA, CM10 stable is also a good choice. It is quite fast with Marmite kernel. CM team has confirmed on G+ that CM 10.1 on 4.2 will be released for Nexus S.
[Nexus S Android Development] Muvolt:
CM10 stable is finally fast and full of features. It also has the support of a big and very active team. What else could you want?

P.S. CM10.1 (v4.2) is coming too for our device, so...
[Nexus S Android Development] Maxxd01:
Looks like the only possible action left is to unsubscribe for the thread.

I also would like to know that. Been stuck in CNA for too long. Despite its features, how is BB6 regarding speed? I'm not using CM10 right now because it lack some features that I really like in CNA. Not using Slim because since the work was forked to another developer, that rom has never been the same. How about Metal Dragon?
[Nexus S Android Development] Kolero:
If you're looking for speed, Metal Dragon Overlord is great. If you're looking for features, it's not the ROM for you. MDO is almost stock.
[Nexus S Android Development] Maxxd01:
True. Just flashed and realized that.

I'm going to try CM 10, as fair as I understand, it offers a good balance between speed, stability and features.
[Nexus S Android Development] anshumandash:
BB6 is really fast and has all features of CNA. Try it once with latest marmite.

Hi guys! I've flashed CNA 3.5.0 that, according my habitual use is very stable. According to you, what is the best kernel to increase my battery life? The only problem that i have is this and i don't know how to solve it:( if i do a middle use, battery life is about 6 hours with 2G data on. Obiviously I'm not looking for a "miracle" but a little bit longer then the last tried (AirKernel-#300)

PS.sorry for my bad english :o
[Nexus S Android Development] pjvaliant:
Try 3.6 with Marmite 6 or 7 . . . .you'll see more efficent battery

I was running cna 3.6.6 .... switched to CM10 Stable with CM's stock kernel + BM tweaks and BM seeder... battery life is so much better than cna and its FAR FAR more stable.

Yes buddy. I was just playing it. Even in my 2-core tablet, asphalt 7 isn't that smooth. I'm totally impressed with this rom.

You know, some roms/kernels don't fit with all phones. Every nexus s phone is different from each other by 0,0001%. But that 0,0001% is responsible for screwing things up. Just 2 days ago, in a greek forum, a guy told us that he had fc with codename/air kernel and when he flashed bedalus kernel everything were perfect.

just updated to 3.3.2 from 3.3.0

thanks for the hard work man
[Nexus S Android Development] grigri444:
So, the right steps for updating from 3.3.0 are to wipe cache and davlik, flash 3.3.1 (flash gapps too?) and then flash 3.3.2 without wiping anything.

If i just flash 3.3.2 with wipe cache and davlik, will i need to flash gapps too?
[Nexus S Android Development] Blackcrx:
here are the steps i did mine. updating from 3.3.0 to 3.3.2

i did not wipe cache or dalvik

install 3.3.2, install gaps, install inverted gaps, install kernel. obviously the inverted gaps and kernel is optional

but the time it takes to install gaps is so fast why not just do it to be safe?
[Nexus S Android Development] smoka206:
Bedalus Kernel has been good on every JB Rom and its extremely fast on CNA.
[Nexus S Android Development] Blackcrx:
which version of bedalus?
[Nexus S Android Development] Androll79:
install 3.3.2, install gaps, install inverted gaps, install kernel. obviously the inverted gaps and kernel is optional

Hate to ask but what are inverted gaps?

And what benefit do they bring?

Hi, at 1st thing... your rom is super smooth and super fast... working well (almost all functions I'm normally using are without lags or bugs).

I found only 1 messy behaviour of 3.3.2 version.

Each (about) 5 minutes the phone is searching GPS satelites (without any app running). Does it exist some manual how to solve this messy issue? (I would like NOT to stop GPS module)

Hi, try to start google maps and let your location get fixed once. After this there should be no more problem with gps.

[Nexus S Android Development] zgomot:
3.3.2 still has the same issue as 3.3.0 did.

Most of the times (though not always) clicking the Mobile Data toggle does turn data on and off, however the toggle icon itself stays on. Same goes for the 2g/3g toggle - I press it, it activates 2g only, then if I press it again to deactivate 2g only, it does, but the toggle icon stays on 2g. Pressing repeatedly eventually leads to the icon state and the true state of the setting to be unsynced (2g only is off, yet the icon show it being on).
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Never had any problems with toggles. I believe you have to turn off data first before the button works.
[Nexus S Android Development] vinamilk:
One of the best battery life Rom I've tested so far. Runs super smooth and very responsible.

Need to fix :

- USB copy slowly as ICS and JB bug

- adhoc wifi support
[Nexus S Android Development] rener78:
USB copy I agree as well
[Nexus S Android Development] zgomot:
I tried that. So I turned data off from the system settings, the pressed the data toggle. The data toggle icon turned off, yet it actually turned data ON (remember I had turned data off manually)

It seems I am able to reproduce the bug every time. The problem is that the toggle icon doesn't reflect the true state of the setting on first press. First time you press it, it does work, and turns data off, but the icon stays on, as if data were still on. On second press, the toggle icon starts changing states but it is now out of sync with the real state of the setting.

Hey guys is me again lol. I just flashed the newest SynergyROM update ( 1.7 ) and my gps doesnt show me at the correct location. It keeps moving around my area, mostly 3 to 4 blocks away from me. i didnt mind that however when i go on navigation, the directions are incorrect due to the location being wrong. Is there a fix for this? I did a full wipe before installing just like instruction on the thread and i installed it after going back to stock and rooting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SiXandSeven8ths:
Have you tried the Synergy thread? A lot has been discussed about GPS issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dimeloklk:
i did check it and tried going to stock and then back to synergy and still same issue.

Edit: I just started reading many of the comments and i guess i will wait for the next update. Battery life is too good to quit the rom.

Thanks for the reply
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SiXandSeven8ths:
From what I read about it, and I've been following the thread because I use Synergy, its possible that it is a hardware issue. Or its possible that you need to Odin back to stock and start over. I've been flashing and reflashing Synergy since 1.0 (or maybe it was 1.1) and haven't had much in the way of issues, GPS works fine.

I'm on one of the nightlies right now, have you tried using the current nightly? Not sure what else I can suggest, I'm pretty new to it all really.

Ive seen a few posts that gps doesnt work and they have been told flash back then flash rom, but my question is when back to stock does gps work then? if not maybe its the phone its self

I have not had any problems even VZW can find me if i turn gps off
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] strcdply:
This may not the best route, but it has worked for me so far:

I'm also on v1.7 (Odined back to stock unrooted; rooted via GS3_debugfs-root_r2; CWM 6.0.1.0; clean v1.7 install with data/cache/dalvik wipes) and this is what I did when I initially flashed and noticed GPS locking issues:

1. Toggled GPS

2. Went outside & launched GPS Test

3. Updated AGPS

4. Once the "In Use" # of satellites in GPS Test showed 2 or more I launched Google maps and got an immediate lock.

Since the initial flashing of v1.7 when I have GPS locking issues:

1. Toggle GPS

2. Go outside and launch GPS Test.

3. Once the "In Use" # of satellites in GPS Test show 2 or more I launch Google maps. I usually then get an immediate lock. I also verify with Waze.

I noticed that if I keep GPS on, then I don't have to launch GPS Test to get a lock. However, if I turn GPS off and toggle it back on right before I need it, my GPS lock takes longer. If I'm waiting past 30 secs for a lock, I just launch GPS Test and wait for the "In Use" number to populate before going back to Maps or Waze
