I did a really quick install the first time on the M9, and my previous comment doesn't quite give justice to how nice the build is.. The M8 is one of the best builds from CM I've had the privilege to install on my phone, and since I am not keeping my phone anymore, it will be my last custom rom as well..

A HUGE thanks to CM for all the continuing support for so many devices, including my new ONE.. :)
[Nexus S General] drac0:
One more bites the dust! :)
[Nexus S General] Miguun:
Do you think it is the best choice from all available roms (plus devil kernil) ?

The problem in our NS's is the lack of ram, yesterday I tried disabling google services, and the phone flew (it had more 50MB of available ram).

In the end of the month with the probable N5 price drop, I will see if I can finally upgrade, or wait for the new Nexus in November.
[Nexus S General] Setting.Out:
I mis-typed m8, for I meant m9, but this is a very nice build.. I use a paid version of greenify, disabling system apps and another app to disable services (for the playstore) and my script and it flies with 150mb+ free ram most of the time.. ;) though now it just sits there waiting for its future sale or becoming my daughters play toy...

battery drain

i am using cm11 M9 and i am experiencing high battery drain from com.android.phone when screen is off.. I tried to fix it by reflashing the rom but the problem persists. Any sollution?

(edit) Using better battery stats I found that the wakelock causing this problem was RILJ. I turned gps to device only and that fixed the problem.. What I want to know is If anyone has solved this problem without turning assisted gps off.

[Nexus S General] Prajnacara:
Since 2014-09-04 nightlies I've been having all sorts of problems, forced reboots (hard and soft), massive battery drain, and lots of forced closes for things, especially google play services and android.acore. Including some boot-loops as well. Back of phone is often very hot. I tried 09-08 and a few other recent nightlies, but the problems remain (may have got worse).

I thought about going back to stock, but I'm too busy to have the time to learn how to do this properly, and don't want to brick my phone. And even going back to earlier nightlies doesn't seem to solve it. Tried that several times already.

Any suggestions? Has anyone else experienced anything similar? It's not even functional enough to work as a reliable clock at this point... Any thoughts greatly appreciated!!
[Nexus S General] Sumanji:
Sounds like you should try going back to stock dude - on a Nexus device it's super easy!
[Nexus S General] Prajnacara:
Thanks. Well, that's what I thought. At present, AOKP and GApps zips installed, but then booting up there are lots of fcs and the Setup Wizard is failing again, again, again, ...

Can you point me to a thread or link which describes (in fairly clear terms) how to revert to stock? With zips links would be ideal.

Thanks! :laugh:

I dunno, but by dirty flashing I don't get the messaging bug. I experienced that too on the last skanky's kk version I tried, which forced me to try dirty-flashing instead. Just remember to make a nandroid backup every time first. I'm using devil kernel on it also. No problem so far. :)

For some feedback,

I've been using stock JB 4.1.2 for a quite long time and I can say that CM11 4.4.2 performs very smoothly on the device. Reaction times are good and In general I am very happy with the performance.

One thing I notice is when I receive calls. The phone starts ringing way before the screen goes on and the caller avatar is not rendered. Also, there's some kind of shady layer on the screen while the phone is ringing. I'll try to picture it when I have a second device with me.

are you using latest recovery? get the latest twrp one and before you install, do this: wipe cache, secure, system, data, (only exclude sdcard) and then install m10 as its stable, and then bootup into your rom and set it up with google id etc. after this boot into recovery and install PA gapps 4.4.4 micro/nano whichever suits you best *i use micro*, and then reboot into system. it will work fine, hopefully.

Hmm, try full wipe with formatting /system, then install what you usually use. If using CM use the Gapps from this page http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Gapps

Any experiences with M12?

There had been some negative :( reports (instability and crashes) about M11 on Nexus S, which caused me to keep M10 and not to install M11. From bad experiences with M7 and M8 I just learned to be careful with updates (which etymologically in fact only means that its "date" is newer and not that its functionality or stability is better).

So has anybody tried M12, and is it usable, or shall I better keep M10?

By the way: The most stable version for me so far was M4. ;)
