[Nexus S General] BlackHawkA4:
This is the only thing I don't like about OLED. It's a pretty big trade off too. Problem with my Epic and the Nexus; however, they have reverse effects.

The Epic had faded where the status bar and icons were. Especially since the icons in the status bar were blue. The Blues faded out and you could notice this. On the nexus nothing is blue up there so you see a STRONGER blue presence on white where the status bar is "burned" in.

I just can't turn my status bar off; or, put in on the bottom. Don't like it like that. So I'll deal with it.

I don't even see this on my girlfriends phone but if I had to guess she has her screen on at least 3 hours less than I do a day.

Just gotta take the good with the bad until they make blue OLED better. It's just really not good for "computers" with all the stationary things. Imagine OLED on a windows machine, lol. Gross.

Does anyone know how or if sbf will delete clock work mod recovery
[Droid X General] NotATreoFan:
SBF by itself will not remove Clockwork, but if you follow these steps, you can clear everything without booting Android.

1) SBF to .340

2) After SBF is complete, enter Motorola recovery by holding Power + Home until you get a folder with a "!". Now press Search and then do a factory reset.

After completing those steps, you will be on the unrooted stock ROM, with all traces of Clockwork gone.

You can remove through root explorer. Delete system/bin/hijack and system/bin/logwrapper rename system/bin/logwrapper.bin to system/bin/logwrapper
[Droid X General] Funnyface19:
ok thanks! was wondering for someone else
[Droid X General] mikeyt114:
i am am noobe, and beed to do this, how do i get to root exployer and on instructions

you say "Delete system/bin/hijack and system/bin/logwrapper rename system/bin/logwrapper.bin to system/bin/logwrapper

if i am understand. after i delete these files, make a new system/bin/logwrapper

file to replace? sorry, just confused

Mike
[Droid X General] pokedroid:
Heres what I did and it worked for me: You can get root explorer from the market. Then, open and scroll to the bottom or the list. You should see the folder "system" (tap it). Then tap the word bin. Next scroll down to the "L's" and you'll notice there are files named "logwrapper" (delete this one) AND "logwrapper.bin" (rename this one AFTER you deleted the first). Then delete "hijack". Reboot.

Im not sure idiot followed the instructions exactly as they are supposed to be but I have the stock recovery and no issues, so I hope that works for you. Maybe wait til someone else canconfirm these exact instructions? Id hate to give you bad instructions (if this doesn't work I can't be held responsible :p)

[G2 and Desire Z General] sinistersai4d4d:
I got the G2 a few days prior to release at Radio Shack.

I got the upgrade price and didn't need a rebate or anything...

I found out yesterday that T-Mobile didn't register this purchase as an upgrade....

Nexus S... here I come.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ddgarcia05:
Really a Nexus S? My dad just returned his second one and got a mytouch4G.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sinistersai4d4d:
Maybe if I didn't have a G2 I would consider the MT4G... But since I already have what I consider the best T-Mobile phone for my personal use, I can get the Nexus S solely to be on the bleeding edge of google updates and not bother rooting it or anything.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ddgarcia05:
True. Just a heads up my dad has a loud car and the noise canceling would cause some weird issues. When he was driving the person on the other line would hear my dad with an echo, muffled, or choppy. In the loud car it was choppy, in all other cars it was echoy and muffled. This was on both phones.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kkevin94:

[G2 and Desire Z General] durps:
Since you have one of the latest phones, I would hold out on the nexus S and just wait til Feb and get a dualcore phone :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] bongd:

The Nexus S isn't of interest to me. The G2/DZ is a lot better give or take a few tiny things that I don't really care about much.

I'd probably purchase whatever phone gets the best price on eBay and sell it for profit.
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
Second this. CES is less than a month away and there's sure to be some new phone announcements there - I'd give it a few weeks and see what happens - might be nothing, but it'd suck to get the Nexus S and then something cooler come out in February.
[G2 and Desire Z General] fgjruiz:
You took my upgrade, lol

That's sooo not cool! I had the opposite thing happen.

I returned my wife's G2 from Radio Shack after having called before and from Radio Shack to see if I would then be able to get the $100 from Costco and they said yes. The upgrade never got removed, They even said that 3rd party upgrades sometimes NEVER get removed. I wrote a letter to corporate and everything and it took 10 days to get the matter resolved and a G2 for $100.

You're sooo lucky!
[G2 and Desire Z General] theratdude64:
I have the plan with NO chance of an upgrade :( But considerably cheaper every month. Had to get the G2 with the monthly no interest payments on the account. My school offers at 15% discount on the full plan with upgrades, but even with that I'd be paying more.

What I hate is that they put a gun to your head to get a data plan with an android phone! My house gets horrible data coverage, and she doesn't have much use for it anyways. When she does, I just tether to her. So I really hate that. She's stuck on a G1, I'm trying to get her a My Touch Slide.

Though when the rep asked "how necessary is an android device?" "mandatory" :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] nycjv321:
I used 2 work at radioshack... when district (or whoever audits their t-mobile transactions) finds out that that employee didn't qualify the upgrade that store is going to get hit with the difference idk $200-400 loss bahahahha!
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
You *do* realize that's not RadioShack's policy, but the carrier's, right? In fact, all 4 major carriers now *require* a data plan with any smartphone. It's not even an option to the salesperson - the system detects the IMEI and automatically adds the data plan along the way.

THIS IS FOR HDPI DEVICES ONLY

Here is a red themed Android Market 2.2.11. It removes the green colors on the icons and the app. Thanks to @santiemanuel for finding the files needed to change the green top header of the app.

Please do a nandroid backup before flashing this update.zip. Boot into clockwork recovery and select zip from sd card. Let run and reboot.

To increase the chances of this working, go into settings>applications>all and find the market. Select uninstall or uninstall updates. Due to a change in the apk when Google went to to the new Market, some permissions can become corrupted and cause FCs. If you uninstall updates or start from a fresh ROM it should work.

I am not responsible for any problems you might come across after installing this mod.Please only try this if you are comfortable with this type of hacking.

Nice to see someone else get rid of that green, lol. I did for 2.2.6 several weeks ago and now have 2.2.7 in blue. It's strange though that it's hit or miss on the install. Only thing that I've had pretty much 100% success with is updating from an older Vending.apk, *prior* to the makeover. But everybody that's tried that method has gotten it to take.

how did you make the market carrousel red. i looked in the folders of .pngs in the app, and i didnt see anything that could look like the carrousel
[Android Apps and Games] nbs11:
I have the same question. I think the answer is an XML file, but I can't seem to find the right one.
[Android Apps and Games] pendo:
I pulled out the Vending.apk from an older gappps, dated 11/10 I believe. You can download it through ClockworkMod. I pushed the older Vending in and ran the app just a bit, maybe flipped through a couple screens.

Then reboot into recovery, wiped caches, and flashed my zip. I only had this happen to myself once (I'm sure it was self inflicted with all the stuff I work on) but others have had success with it as well.

No problem :)

The header is not a drawable. It's all part of their Velvet UI, which is all in smali. The colors are hex codes in colors.xml so you won't see them untill you decompile. But to get the complete story, you should go to com/android/vending/velvet. In ArcPaintingUtils.smali, ArcView.smali, SlimArcView.smali, and SlimArcViewWithTabs.smali. (I think that's most of them) will be where they call out the id's that they are using. You can take that id and find what color it is in public.xml Then you can reference the id's back to public.xml to find out what it's actual name is.

[Android Apps and Games] Nemesis1278:
I think this Is more for builds ported to other phones. It should work fine if you have root access on your phone to copy the files over to your system/app folder. Just remember that changing system files can have harmful effects to your system.
[Android Apps and Games] leon sprouse:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
What specifically did you hope to accomplish with SetCPU?

There are several uses for it, and any advice you get would have to be targeted towards what your expectations are.

The basic uses in my opinion are to:

1) Regulate overclocking (which won't help you since you're on the stock kernel, which doesn't allow overclocking).

2) Conserve battery life on the theory that slower CPU max allowance increases battery life.

3) Conserve battery life while not impacting max CPU when you need performance through the use of various "profiles". Example would be to set the phone to something like 100/400 while sleeping, but 100/1000 when awake and 100/600 when battery goes under 30%. There are so many variables no one can tell you what is best, it will depend on your usage patterns and priorities.

4) A few other tweaks that I never saw any benefit to using (governor, etc).

I haven't bothered with SetCPU on either my i9000 or the Nexus S. The NS runs just fine without it, and I don't see the real point unless you're overclocking/underclocking. The stock kernel doesn't run at 100% all the time, it scales up and down as needed.

There is a whole thread dedicated to the app from the developer here, it's in the G1 apps section, but you might see some ideas suggestions there for any phone.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
Actually, every phone will set itself to a very low cpu clock spouted while asleep, morfic was referring to the fact that in setcpu you can essentially make stepping stone frequencies that the phone uses and for the nexus s that must include 800mhz

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinan:
For screen off you can set the max to 800mhz and min to 100mhz or whatever, it should work fine. If you set it to something like 100/200 it'll hang once the screen turns off since 800mhz isn't included.

[Q] setCPU stops working after reboot

So, I've got a couple of questions I'd love to have answered.

1. When using CMD7 26, with Trinity Kernel CMD7 Max, I understand you have to use setCPU to control the cpu. So I decided to set it up. At first, it worked flawlessly, but after a reboot, it stops working. Yes, I have the start at boot option enabled, at 1200mhz, and everytime I restart, it stops working, and I have to force quit it, and then start it again.

Any suggestions?

2. When using CMD 7 26 with Netarchys 1.2.1 kernel it first works perfectly. But after a while I'll crash, and then I'll reboot constantly, cause it keeps freezing.

In short, I can't use Netarchys kernel, cause after a while it stops working.

When flashing a new rom and kernel, I always do it like this:

1. Wipe data

2. Flash rom

3. Flash gapps

4. Restore data from backup

5. Flash kernel

I'm doing this with ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5

I'm not having any problems booting a kernel/rom, but after some time I start crashing repeatedly.

So, and tips on how to stop setCPU from crashing at reboot, when using Trinity Max kernel, and also what to do when flashing a new rom/kernel, incase I've got it all wrong.

I'd also like to know why everything becomes so incredible unstable, I have to reflash, after a single freeze using Netarchys kernel...
