Well, probably because of Android 2.2 running it's system. Are the companies not planning updating phones with android 2.3?

I have been reading a lot about this phone. I was looking forward to the new Nexus S until I took a look at the specs and realized that it wasn't much of an improvement over the original Nexus which I currently own. So I searched based on the dual core Tegra 2 processor I had heard about and that led me to the LG Star, which so far looks to be the next BIG thing. I forget which, but at least one of the article I read said it looks to be headed to T-Mobile :D! Trust me, I'm already setting some cash aside for that! Looks to be a SERIOUS piece of hardware, which is the upgrade I am looking for!

Hey I was wondering if it would be possible to install clockworkmod recovery through rom manager on a temporary root I used androot on my friends slide and I was thinking if I used rom manager to install clockworkmod then tried to install a rooted rom strieght from rom manager that would give him full root
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
No it will not work. What happens is rom manager sets it to flash via the stock recovery on reboot, but it can't do that without the engineering bootloader, since the stock one doesn't allow self signed update packages such as clockwork to flash, while the engineering one does. You need to have full root to flash a recovery. And also, in case you didn't already know, the mt3gs is s-on so your recovery resets on reboot anyway, requiring you to flash a recovery every time you go to it. There's your answer haha

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cret:
Just a quick update for anyone searching - I found an app called 'Master Volume' which has worked for me.

It doesn't offer anything in terms of exceptions or individual control I don't think, but importantly it DOES link the volume controls together and links them at the same time to the rocker switch on the phone.

So you install it, then I opened the all and it says to just leave the service running in the background (so I set my task killer app to ignore the process). That's it. It just seems to work no problem.

Result!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sizzlincok:
You need to try different bitrates for yourself to find out the best one.

I had to convert about 4 - 5 times to find out the correct useable bitrate with the best video quality for my dumb phone, Sony Ericsson W705.

2000kbps was too much

1000kbps was too little

1500kbps was perfect, at the tiny 320x240 res. :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Why waste time when you can just use RockPlayer? This app handles basically any (kinda mainstream) codec you throw at it! Granted, it consumes a little more battery, but I take that over converting any day.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emctwo:
VOIP and UMA are NOT the same thing. One might use Google voice which is VOIP but not UMA. I could care less about Voip but if the Nexus S can't do UMA it is a deal breaker and will just pick up the Mytouch 4G. Already sad that the Nexus isn't 4G and doesn't have external storage but with no UMA support I will just get the Mytouch and wait for gingerbread to make its way to that.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miked270:
I'm wondering the same thing and this is actually the only feature that has me wanting this phone if it does in fact allow wifi calling.

My Nexus one has a broken usb port and i've been forced to swap batteries the last few months while waiting for the first gingerbread phone to arrive. I was already hoping for so much more like 720p display, dual core, new ui, because it barely feels like it's an upgrade over my N1 as is.

When the official specs were announced I almost considered going to the iphone4 or Samsung Focus but I just can't do AT&T, lol.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makelegs:
Pretty sure G-Voice via VOIP would be better than the original wifi-calling app, anyway. I wasn't all that impressed with the wifi-calling app on N1, honestly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robot_agenda:
How so? The T-Mobile app is free and uses your minutes from the calling plan. Gvoice requires payment ontop of your calling plan. I don't want to pay twice for the same service.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenstuffs:
If you want uma you will have to get a blackberry, currently the android devices just have gan.

Wifi calling sucked on the n1, the only device that was usable was the mt4g
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makelegs:
I've been using google voice for a year, and I've never paid a dime for anything. Unless you know something I don't know about some new service fee for g-voice when used in concert with VOIP, you may wanna re-assess g-voice altogether. It's flippin' AWESOME!.....

....AND FREE!!!

In all fairness, though.... call quality on the wifi app was poor for me. Volume was really low. Could be the fact that I was using an N1 hacked version, but I doubt it. If g-voice is only using the data you already paid for, then I don't see how it could cost anymore. Maybe I'm missing something though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
GVoice doesn't require any payments. Calls to USA & Canada are free. Any other country have their rates, however. We still don't know how exactly is the VoIP implemented on the Nexus S, so can't say how it'll work as of now.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emctwo:
UMA and GAN are the same thing...in 2005 UMA specs were incorporated into the 3GPP rel. 6 specs and were renamed "Generic Access Network" or GAN.

The current list of phones that are UMA/GAN can be found here at

www .umatoday.com/smartphones.php

Currently the Nexus S is not there but that could just be because it is not out yet. Just have to see if after the release date if they update the list

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blix247:
Blackberry supports wifi to cell handoff, Android handsets don't. Not sure whether Android is technically UMA or not. Either way the key is being able to receive calls over wifi. If you're stuck in the bowels of some massive office building and you have zero signal, being able to receive text messages and calls fluidly would be awesome. Especially if they're able to call or text to your regular number.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
GVoice on Android isn't VoIP, it just routes through your GVoice number. You need a SIP account like Gizmo5 etc to set it up. GVoice in GMail on your desktop IS VoIP. Hopefully they bring something like that soon..

As for how SIP/VoIP calling will work on the Nexus S, we'll just have to wait a few more days to find out, with concrete details.

So in essence, its the same as the blackberry's where if there is no signal but wifi, you will still get your calls/txts as normal as long as your connected?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IDtheTarget:
Well, yes, sort of. It uses Google Voice, which does have it's own phone number. I switched to using Google Voice this summer, and while it takes awhile to get everybody notified, it gives me some flexibility. This way I can do SIP calling, or if I am going to be in an area that doesn't have T-Mobile coverage for awhile, I can buy an AT&T Go Phone and have google voice forward to that phone. It's a bit of a pain sometimes, but it keeps me connected.

Not yet - FC on open still. FC on the AVD as well (but not on the 2.2 AVD). So either libmedia or another library has undergone some significant changes (error thrown is locating AudioRecord) or there's a missing library we can't identify yet.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
The N1 has a working version, it relies on a part in the kernel to work, so it should be relatively easy
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
The kernel module is not the issue. Getting an app that doesn't FC immediately on gingerbread is the issue.

The kernel module (kineto_gan) is compiled and working fine (loads the gannet server).

The libs seem to work fine (librilswitch hands off to the RIL for the Nexus S without an issue). We can't test libganril yet, but I don't see a reason it won't work.

The problem is that the app itself FC's immediately on 2.3. It throws an error loading AudioRecord.

Load the Wifi-Calling app on a stock 2.2 AVD (no libraries and certainly not the necessary kernel module) and it loads fine, bringing up the tutorial (although it won't function without the gannet server and the appropriate handoff to the libganril). Load the same app on the 2.3 AVD and instant force close - error below

D/dalvikvm( 938): Trying to load lib /data/data/com.android.kineto/lib/libkinet

The call in the APK has been identified, but so far it can't or hasn't been resolved. So we are stuck with an APK that won't even attempt to access the local gannet server let alone load.

Once the 2.3 OTA for the G2 drops we will in theory have a wifi-calling app that works fine in 2.3 and it should be smooth sailing from there on out (in theory).
