[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
guys, any chance you could be a bit more clear on what you did? I've tried a few things now and nothing's working:

- tried Superuser app from play store, doesn't work, says I need to update binaries, which it doesn't do, looked for info on how to fix, nothing that helpful around.

- tried Chainfire's SuperSU 1.4.3 from app store as per advice here (http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...n-but-chainfires-supersu-works-and-heres-why/), didn't work, says SU binary needs to be updated, neither 'normal' (installation failed) nor 'twrp/cwm' (doesn't reboot. don't know what to do once i'm in recovery) works. I have CWM.

- I've installed superuser.zip from CWM recovery mode

- I've downloaded & put UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip in my SD card root but trying to install it from CWM fails, from either zip or sideload.

I'm using SlimBean ROM 1.4.3beta 2

Thanks

Hi,

I am using SuperSU-v1.51

Tested it on 2-3 different android 4.3 roms on my Nexus S.

Worked every time. Used TWRP and flashed with UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.51.zip

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
hi okopop, thanks for this.

So, just to be 100% clear:

1. you installed TWRP manager from here ?

2. Then you used TWRP in INSTALL "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.51.zip"

3. Then... anything else?

4. Did this change your ROM?

5. Did this restore you to factory settings?

6. Will it work with SlimBean ROM?

Thanks!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okopop:
1. Think i followed this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2034264 I did not install TWRP from google play, used fastboot commands and .img if i remember correctly.

2. I boot the phone into TWRP then install the .zip, yes.

3. Well i unlocked the boot loader before that. See link in 1.

4. Nope

5. I have always restored to factory settings before installing a new rom and after that supersu. I think i forgot to run it one time and ran it afterwards and it worked great.

6. No idea, try it! :D Only tried vanilla 4.3

gl mate, let me know if you get it to work!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
Thanks a ton for this dude.

Out of interest... how's your 4.3 stock running on the Nexus S? I only got SlimBean cos my mob was so laggy, but since people have told me about Greenify and LagFix and others, I don't know whether I need slimbean...?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okopop:
Np!

Its running very quick and smooth, no lag.

Every vanilla 4.3 rom i have tried have had problems with the camera in different ways and other weird stuff with lock screen etc.

But those were ports from nexus 4 and others i think.

Then i found this one:

And i use these gapps:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

I have like 140Mb+ free memory when i boot the device but i have chat apps that eat my memory, would have been nice with some more memory, else, im very happy with 4.3 on my nexus s. Feels like new phone.

First thought about CM or Slimbean but when i got this i dont think i will change. I like it standard and clean :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
Awesome. Will follow your lead on this one then, that's HUGE memory compared to what i'm getting, and i did enjoy the vanilla rom til it got too full!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okopop:
I dont have that many apps running and have disabled alot of goolgle stuff that i dont use. Currents, play books, google+,hangouts, news&weather and so on. Got rid of alot of apps i didnt use when i finally changed to this rom. Maybe that plays in on the huge free memory, nevertheless try it out, if you dont like it go back to slim. It is better to have tried than to have never tried at all... :P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
Sorry to bother you again dude, that new link has thrown up a mini confusion!

Lafrick's vanilla ROM suggests:

Installation steps:

Boot into recovery

Wipe data/factory reset

Install aosp_crespo-jb43-v0.5.zip

Install gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

Install superuser.zip

Reboot

Wait (first boot will take some time)

Enjoy

And from your link:

plus your notes you suggest:

1. unlock bootloader

2. install TWRP.img

3. install superSU zip

so to flash the vanilla rom & gapps I should THEN:

4. Install aosp_crespo-jb43-v0.5.zip

5. Install gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

6. Do I need to install superuser if I've already installed superSU?

7. Reboot, wait, enjoy

?

Thanks again!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okopop:
Ask away, glad i can help man!

Seems right. I did not use his susperuser bc ive used my on other roms and it worked every time.

1. unlock bootloader

2. install TWRP.img

3. boot into TWRP

4. Wipe data/factory reset

5. Install aosp_crespo-jb43-v0.5.zip

6. Install gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

7. install superSU zip

8. Reboot, wait, enjoy

How about just leaving your mobile data on? Leaving your phone on and not letting it die? Or just toggle it off once the phone boots?

It has been 2 years I bought this phone.

Nexus S i9023 world wide edition (code name crespo)

Generally it gave 24 hours battery backup. But now it gives only 12 hours backup hardly!!.

I tried all roms like cyanogenmod, slim rom, AOKP and original too.

Screens are attached.

let me know if you have any idea.

let me know if you want more information.

I am on wifi only in office, otherwise wifi and data plan is off.

[SOLVED!!]

i have this problem with my galaxy grand phone ,the battery discharges in 20hr , default OS was 4.1.2 official samsung , i changed my rom into a slim custom rom based 4.2.2 , but the battery has same problem again , Android OS battery Usage Was 80% !!!! and screen usage just was 9% !

my installed software :

Viber

WeChat

MyKet {Like Android Market}

Weather Widget

i used wifi 1-2 hour in a day ,

=================================

[SOLVE]

first go to Settings -> Developer Options -> Apps Tab -> checked Don't keep activities

set brightness to auto

then go to location services -> off access my location

then go to wifi -> advanced Wi-Fi -> keep wi-fi on during sleep -> change to Never

now go to application manager -> Running Tab -> Force stop some apps with extra ram usage like settings

my phone just uses 5% battery in 13hr sleep mode ; ENJOY! :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikaskanani:
All I know is Android OS shouldn't consume 80% of battery when screen is off.

Wakelock detector app always giving me 80% awake and 20% deep sleep. and Phone was having kernel awake issue.

Two days ago I switched back to stock rom with no extra apps installed. and the issue was the same.

What I noticed that I turn of the CRT screen off option in Slimrom 4.2 build 8. and when I come back to stock rom, Obviously I did full format with bootloader, radio and recovery etc.. but CRT screen off was not working. What I guess is if we formatted /system /cache /data dalvik cache etc.. CRT off screen off should be reset and it should be turn on by default, as it was on when I purchased it!!!

So I guess there should be something like OEM unlock option which persist even you do full format. Some of the settings which is causing my kernel for keep awaking.

So I again planned to come back to Slim rom (As I noticed it is very active for my device). And the CRT screen option is working correctly now.

But my original problem of Android OS was still there. in 2 hours of screen off, kernel was awake for all the time, only 4 minutes of deep sleep.

I checked wakelock detector and saw mmc1_detect count as around >1800!!!!

I come back to XDA for solution and found that it could be for faulty SD card. Solution suggested is to go to setting -> storage -> unmount sd card and restart your phone or something (I don't remember actually). But since Nexus S has no external SD card, out of 16 GB, 1 GB is for phone internal and about 13 GB is for USB storage. But how can we unmount it??? Additionally even if I unmount, there is no use of smart phone, as photos and all important things are in SD card. I wasted 1 hour for finding an app that can toggle SD card mount/unmount but no success.

I noticed that my phone has some issue with charging point. It started after I used nexus 7 charger into it. On my laptop usb connection works good, but at my office I checked on 2 PCs but USB is not recognizing it. (Sometime works something don't). Another issue I faced a week ago was, when I removed charger, phone still showing charging!! My friend suggested me to mess with port. Use some small sharp stuff like knife to remove touching charging port with outer steel body, and it worked.

So I concluded there must be some issue with it. Today morning After fresh installation of slim rom with suggested step problem persist. But I didn't flashed gapps, just to test if there is an issue with any of the google apps. But then I installed gapps (only required and gmail and hangout)

all of sudden, issue resolved! 2% wake and 98% deep sleep in 7 hours!

Still I cannot determine what exactly caused an issue. If it is about charging point, all I know is I'll face this issue again, and as it is soldered to IC cheep, I definitely need to give it to professional repair.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikaskanani:
As I guessed, Issue again comes, this time I see that 'vbus_present' holds kernel wakelock even after unplugged.

USB working fine, but sometime it keep showing charging after unplugged.

Temporary I am keep plugging and unplugging till charging icon disappear. and then reboot the phone (Rebooting is required otherwise lock will not release).

Soon I will have to repair charging point.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikaskanani:
Ha haha, Alli need is to do not let charging point touch outer surface

i have a verizon samsung galaxy s4 vruame7.

i see there is a hyperdrive firmware for this phone that i really like and want to put on it, ive done everything and have the twrp, although all i can find is that the bootloader is locked. I can only get into download mode. i cant get into recovery mode, i was thinking since this firmware was up that i would be able to put it onto my phone.

i have the phone fully rooted, i have the twrp installed. my only problem is that i cant get into recovery mode to install this. in whichcase i dont believe i can install any custom rom whatsoever.

is there a way i can clear all the cache and install this rom through download mode?

if anyone knows how to get around this i would greatly appreciate your help. thank you very much. i looked around the site and couldnt find anything, although the way the hyperdrive rom says its for vruame7 and it says to boot up through loki'd recovery i assume there has to be a way that im missing and am not able to find on my own.

thanks very much for the help and i appreciate it alot.

p.s. if there is no way to get around this, is there some sort of way i can install a kernel with netfilter to allow wifi tethering from my phone or any other option for that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Once your on the me7 ota you cant install a custom recovery/roms. Theres about a 100 posts on this already. Little bit of reading goes a long way :thumbup:

As for the tethering im not quite sure, I dont have the unlimited plan so I use the built in hotspot for tethering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TerryLee23:
well i would, but for verizon it requires me to have a subscription with my service provider which will cost me extra money. the wifi tether for root users wont work because the official rom doesnt have a netfilter, and it gives me errors and wont work so i believe its because i need a different rom or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Never used it but maybe treve wifi tether will work

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41276643
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TerryLee23:
it does the same thing as the wifi tether app i was using that requires root.... it tells me "started with errors" and i tried changing device profile, it doesnt have a samsung galaxy s4 option, has s3 s2 and sl and ive tried those and it doesnt change anything.

see other phones ive modded you do everything from your computer putting the phone into download mode and running it off a command line type of modding from the computer, so im assuming thats how this will be cracked eventually. i was hoping there would be something now that i just wasnt coming across i guess, ive been using this site forever and i gotta say i love these developers helping us out so much.

i do appreciate the help tho, thanks man. if you got any other tricks that might help me id love to hear em. thanks alot

Just a little tip. I love this phone and im sure you will too! Only complaint is the camera. Could be a 13MP or better. If your looking to buy this phone tho, don't worry about saving a few bucks on eBay. People think they can get away with over charging for these phones.....they do! You can get them directly from Google for $349 brand new. I don't understand why people pay those prices for a used item! :cyclops::eek:

I installed the 4.2 camera/gallery for the photosphere and foolishly uninstalled the gallery that comes with the sweet rom v10.

Now i cannot choose my lock screen wall paper from gallery... it only shows stock 4/5 lock screen wallpapers

Can i get a gallery apk with photosphere and airview for sweet rom v10 LT9 or can get the initial gallery apk that comes with this rom which will enable me to choose images for lock screen wallpaper?

If you've previously downloaded the rom extract it using 7zip.

Look in preload/symlink/system/app. Copy samsungcamera.apk to the same folder of your phone.

set the permission & reboot. The gallery comes together with the camera

I have successfully unlocked my bootloader and flashed the twrp 2.6.0.0 recovery I backed up the old stock rooted ROM and first tried CM10 jewel direct from cyanogen and the phone was stuck on the boot screen for 20 min the first time then I rebooted and tried again and it set for 30 min the second time I tried CM10.1_4.2.2_Modded_IrocEvo_jewel_20130720 still didn't work same issue but this time it is stuck in a boot loop it does at least get to the boot animation well I wiped again and tried Ouroboros_Build_One and still the same issue I don't understand why the ROM's won't boot and for anyone that looks at this no I did not S-OFF my phone is still S-ON I unlocked the bootloader with the htc dev

What am I missing please any help would be appreciated

I really want to get cm10 to work, before I upgraded to the EVO LTE I had a standard photon that was perma locked so I really don't want to be stuck there again :mad:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shadowxaero:
I'm going to assume the boot img isn't flashing correctly because your s on. So go s off it will save you a bunch of headaches

and this is the wrong section from this kind of post. Should be in the q and a.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] generalmofo:
Go s-off bro.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Threevo:
You're supposed to flash twice bro.

Flash the rom, it'll get stuck on bootloop .. Then flash the ROM again without wiping anything. And you're all good.

Most asop Roms and the new miui won't work tough, the touchscreen won't work because thw new firmware isn't compatible with those Roms
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Not totally true. The method of flashing the ROM zip twice mainly works with ROM's that have an S-on kernel installer built in. Typically with AOSP ROM's the kernel has to be flashed using fastboot commands (or Flash Image GUI). Also, any AOSP ROM using the newer 3.4 kernel is compatible with the newest firmware.

OP, hit the link in my sig. I have a guide on how to flash kernels while S-on that should be fairly easy to follow. In the grand scheme of things, though, you should consider getting S-off, as already suggested.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
Well I can't find the boot.img file it was not part of the rooting download I got :confused:

I tried to go S-OFF I have software 3.16 and hboot 2.09 so I tried moonshine and it keeps giving errors and runs for like 45 min before giving the error :crying:

I am using win 7 so any other suggestions as to how I would get S-OFF so the kernel flashes correctly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] decayer177:
Is that still the case? Either TWRP 2.5 works with firmware 3.15 (w/o breaking touch panel) or CM/MIUI now works with firmware 3.16 because I have been going between sense and CM 10.2 without firmware upgrading/downgrading for quite awhile now. I'll check my firmware version later on today, phones too close to dying atm :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
The newer 3.4 kernel is compatible with the newest firmware, so any AOSP ROM with that kernel doesn't require downgrading the touch panel driver in order to work properly.

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 PM ----------

The boot.img is in the ROM you downloaded. On your computer, double-click the ROM zip file and you will see it. You can then right-click on the boot.img then extract it to your ADB tools folder and flash it via fastboot. If you need a ROM to get you up and running try flashing MeanBean. It's a Sense ROM with the kernel installer built in.

As far as getting Moonshine to work, you'll have to be more specific regarding the errors you're getting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shadowxaero:
What error is it giving exactly?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
I don't get an error number the cms prompt says error restart exe and this happens after it has the phone reboot into the bootloader again it runs for 20-30 minutes then says error restart
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
ok after flashing the boot.img from cm10 I got the rom to boot but the touch pad is not working I am going to bet it is the touch pad drivers while being S-ON is there and way to downgrade the touchpad drivers and later I will give a screen shot of the moonshine error for you guys so I might be able to get a little farther on that front as well
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Sounds like you flashed the older version that utilizes the 3.0 kernel. If you flash one of the newer nightly versions or from IRC, they have the newer 3.4 kernel that's compatible with the newest touch panel driver, so the downgrade isn't necessary.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
OK I got a nightly to work and it is very smooth now I am going to attempt to use moonshine to go S-OFF now that I have this working what other benefits do you get from s off other than not having to flash the kernel separate and radio access
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Hit the link in my sig and read the portion regarding S-off:thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
Here is the issue I keep getting the phone restarts both times before hand and then just stops at test 3
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
Well I tried moonshine on a different win 7 PC and it worked and now I am S-OFF

So the next thing I tried was to flash mean bean and I still had to use fastboot to flash the boot img to get the rom to work I thought once you had S-OFF you didn't have to do that anymore I have TWRP 2.6.0.0 so as far as I know I have the latest recovery just wanted a reason as to why I still had to do this
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
No reason for you to have to fastboot flash the kernel once you're S-off. What happened when you flashed the ROM once you were S-off?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I suggest downgrading twrp to v 2.4.1.0 I think 2.6.0.0 is still a little buggy :D

Click the link in my sig to downgrade
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
It's not buggy:p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
It is on the One haha.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
You sure you're S-OFF?

You might want to run an RUU to get anything weird you may have going on cleared up, and then start fresh with installing TWRP and the custom ROM of your choice. I'd flash this TWRP, though, because it has some stability updates not included in the current Goo release.

That should solve all your ROM problems, I think.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wingzero186:
I have never run an RUU can I even run this on CM10 or would I have to flash back to stock
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zacnking:
Id flash all the firmware again make sure that you have everything up to date and you don't need to have your are you you downgraded for Android Open Source so don't even do that if you aren't ready. I'm on TWRP 2.6 and s off as well by moonshine. I also watched the how-to videos by Qb king 77 that helped alot!
