Maybe try another kernel. I use AIR and.have heard great things bout MATR1X and Marmite as far as stability.

I would back up your apps and do a wipe and reinstall your ROM. For back ups and system tweakage I.use Android Tuner.

I guess we should know your current set up to help you the best. Please tell us what ROM Kernel combo you ate running.and I will do my best to offer suggestions as I'm sure the test.of the community.here will.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
Ok I think that the screenshot I attached is what you are asking for. If it isn't please let me know what else you need to know. Like I said earlier, I bought the phone pre-rooted so I'm not very sure how use another kernel or flash a different ROM. The whole process seems a little intimidating to me but I would be willing to try it out. I just really don't want to brick my phone because I don't know what I'm doing haha.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
You're running a build based of the SDK.

Simply put. Get that crap off of your phone. Flash official stock , a custom ROM or whatever but that needs to go
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
Oh, well that makes me feel great about my purchase :eek:

Would you mind telling me what the best way to do this is, or directing me to instructions how to do it? I'm really new to this and I would hate to ruin my phone because of my inexperience.

I really appreciate the help.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
Ok, thanks. Is this the latest update? Please forgive me for the complete noob questions that follow:

1. I've downloaded the file, but how do I open it and perform the update?

2. Will updating it this way cause me to lose root?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Well first off you should be posting in the Q&A section.

Use fastboot to install factory images. You can download fastboot and the driver for it from the links in my signature.

1. Download the factory image for your device and extract all the image files in it, put them in the folder where fastboot.exe is located.

2. Hold shift + right click on the folder where fastboot.exe is located, choose "Open command window here" (if you're using Windows 7)

3. Boot the phone into bootloader/fastboot mode and connect it to the computer. (While the phone is off, hold VOL+ and POWER).

4. The computer should now ask for the driver, point it to the location of the drivers you downloaded.

5. Open up the file "flash-all.sh" that you extracted along with the factory images with a text editor, it will tell you the commands you'll need to type to install the images:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-crespo-i9020xxlc2.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio-crespo-i9020xxki1.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot -w update image-soju-jro03l.zip

I can't remember if this process will wipe your entire internal storage or not.

Now if you want to root, try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1479831, although there are other ways to root.

Or you can follow these instructions to install Clockworkmod and using it to flash root: http://dottech.org/25412/how-to-root-nexus-s/.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
I appreciate the extensive list of instructions you provided. I tried my best to follow them but I couldn't quite figure out what I was doing wrong. I decided to try to install a custom ROM instead and was able to install cm9 pretty easily. Will this be sufficient to remove the aforementioned problem I was having?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexism:
If your already rooted then you don't need to go through a lot of that even.though it was a good walkthrough. If you flashed a new ROM then.you have.some sort of recovery in place. As long as you do a full wipe to get the previous owners garbage off of there and then flash a new ROM like CM9 then you should be golden the new ROM will come with it's own kernel so you don't need to start learning about those until you want to.

If I may make a suggestion, give AOKP Build 4 a try the ROM you chose is good but is using old code (ICS) If you just got a new phone why not put the latest on it.

Keep me (us) posted as we the reason a lot of us belong to this forum is to offer any help we can....AOKP4 you won't regret it.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
First I want to say thank you to everybody for all the help so far. :highfive: I'm still learning but I am slowly figuring all of this out.

Nexism, I would be interested in trying AOKP build 4 if you wouldn't mind explaining the easiest way to do it or point me somewhere that can explain it to me. I don't know what all goes into flashing a new ROM and I don't want to forget something that will mess up my data or my battery life.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexism:
Here is the AOKP thread. Its located in the general section.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1645400

As far as flashing goes...

Download the ROM from the above thread

Download a good app backup app (I use Android Tuner, it seems like everyone else uses Titanium Backup or ROMToolbox all have free versions only thing you'll miss is batch restore)

Back up your $hit

Boot I recovery (phone off, hold vol up while powering phone on) then scroll to recovery

(At this point opinions differ a bit) I go to mounts and storage and format the following data, cache, system, then boot then back out to the main menu and wipe all factory reset (I'm kind of a neat freak just.like to make sure I'm always starting with a clean slate)

Then install your.ROM and Gapps after a few min main recovery menu will come up

Select reboot

Go through the norm set up

Re-install backup app

Restore your apps

Then play around with all.the new features on your Nexus

Sorry if this is too basic of a walkthrough no offense if so. You can PM me if you need more detail. Good luck, happy flashing.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikoStone:
Awesome, thanks man.

It was exactly what I needed to know - not too basic. I flashed it and now I'm checking it out. Is there any reason I would need to use a custom kernel for anything?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C4SCA:
No, only i u find it slow as it is now. If u want a custom kernel go for matr1x one
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexism:
Glad to here your Nexus is doing well.

Now that you have a good build make a backup (in recovery) so you will always have a working configuration to go back to then experiment all you want. I may get corrected on this but as long as I have a backup and access to recovery mode I know that the chances of me bricking my phone is slim to none. So I am a flash happy fool. I try everything new when it comes out.

Get comfortable with your new ROM and flashing in general and as you see a need try different stuff out.

I use a custom kernel because I use the on screen navbar and I like to turn off the hardware key backlight. You also have control over CPU min/max Frequency,governors, and I/o schedulers as well as some extra tweak options. If you're like me the more you learn the more you'll flash.

Check out NSTools it is one of the must have apps for our phones.

Again, I am available for anymore help I can.offer.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmo61:
My 10.1 is running

Android 4.1.1

Cyanogen 10-20120720-UNOFFICAL-p4wifi

Build date Fri Jul 20 17:30:33 CDT 2012

I've noticed the output volume is alot quieter than other devices. My old HTC hero and Nexus S produce a much louder sound with headphones (which by being powered by the device I could understand I guess) but also a external speaker with their own battery.

I just brought a X-mini and using my old htc hero I would not be able to sit beside the X-Mini on full volume (both on the htc and speaker being set to full)

but im sitting here with my galaxy tab 10.1 and its on full as is the speaker and it just at a normal volume (which isn't loud enough to fill a room for example)

any one else have this problem? Has Cyanogen mod come along way. maybe it has some fixes ?

This may be covered but i have not found it. Sorry for duplicate if so.

Stock browser jelly bean

while checking on reported browser problems, I found a setting that makes my browsing experience much better. when browsing I often have to hit link a couple of times before response. same problem popping up keyboard. I've thought it was fat fingers, missing the link, and the fact I like to browse desktop. there is a setting that has changed all this for me.

there is a hidden settings menu item, you get there by typing "about:debug" no quotes in address bar, enter, open settings, and you should see debug . under debug toward the bottom of options is "enable light touch".

makes a big difference.

Hi I was wondering how I could get jelly bean on my phone. I'm with Telus in Canada and they are not expected to get jelly bean for a long time or not at all. I keep seeing people on YouTube with it on their phones so I'm guessing they have a leaked version of it.

Is there a tutorial that someone could direct me too on how to do this? I don't want to wait for my stupid carrier just to tell me they aren't going to get it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
There is no TW JB at the moment. Any of the AOSP JB ROMS should work on the T989D. Be sure to nandroid first, just in case it doest work. Be wary though, AOSP JB ROMs have a random reboot bug. Many have reported going days without them. Up to you if you are willing to live with that.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kentfor:
JB is not yet stable, generally, on the T989.

Certain users are getting stability, but the JB ROM development threads are filling up with reports of random reboots (RR), and sleep of death (SOD). Numerous other camera, music, bluetooth and SD card issues are also common.

AOKP milestone 6 is the best combination of speed, smoothness, stability and battery life..... At least in my experience. And I've flashed a ton of ROMs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] virajss:
CM10 M2 is quite stable as well. Using it from last 4 days and no RR or SOD's for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LostMoonOfPoosh:
Ya I guess it's a little early for it. I want to avoid problems. I'll just have to be patient until something stable comes out. I've always wanted a cyanogen rom so I could over clock. Maybe I'll find something else in the mean time.

Those random reboots have been fixed on the AOKP & CM ROM's, they've been fixed for a while now, i know this because I've been flashing basically all of them. The only issue for some is while recording video you may get a graphical glitch(lines popping up on your screen), but the latest AOKP jellybean have been fine for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
Are you saying there is not a thing you can do to get RR or SOD just like ICS? What's the longest you ran one build? I don't have time to flash everyday. I need stability that last weeks, possibly months.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
No they don't have to be coded for split screen!

Apparently all the "work" is being done in the Samsung libraries - I certainly couldn't see Google amending the GMail app to support a function that is vendor specific.

I would imagine it is more to do with:

1. Samsung amending their split screen implementation to ensure it works with specific common apps, as well as their own.

2. Stopping other apps being added as they cannot ensure how they will react.

Hello there!

I've searched on Google and xda quite a bit but I don't know how to describe it best.

I am looking for a way to prevent any action when tapping on a dimmed screen...

F. ex. when browsing on iOS and the display dims because of the set timeout and I tap the screen it only and only lights up the screen again without using my tap for any action in the app I am. On Android I can scroll the page immediately even when the screen was dimmed.

So my Question is: Is there a way to change dimming and "relighting" behavior of Android to work like on iOS? And if so, would it need a custom ROM or could it be done with an app (maybe root)?

Greetz,
