It's probably just a coincidence and Verizon is just having problems with their service right now in your area or something then. They are probably just too proud to admit it. Ha ha
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakeyece:
HaHa. That's a good one. I hope your right though. It's kinda annoying. God forbid there is an emergency and I don't get the text cuz of the delay.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
From my experience with cell phone companies, they all have trouble like this from time to time. Mine does it every once in a while and my buddy on AT&T, his does it ALL THE TIME even with the "all mighty iPhone",:rolleyes: my brother is on US Cellular and same deal. My girlfriend is on Sprint and she don't get texts sometimes till the next day! It will probably work itself out. Good luck man.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
Well, hopefully they would have enough sense in the case of an emergency to call you instead of text. :confused:

im using the NERO V3 W/H VOODOO rom and i finally got my phone almost exactally the way i wanted it except the notifications at the top of the phone with the battery and bars that show when you have a text or email and so forth, so there not just gray ..
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] isaac970:
Get handcent for SMS you can change the SMS icon to different kinds of icons and colors for everything else idk. Good luck

Samsung Vibrant

Nero V3 + Voodoo
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jdanisevich:
I have a couple GB themed MMS applications in my thread you can try too. There's a link in my signature. If you flash my theme you'll have all the gray GB notifications in the status bar, that's what you're going for right?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sicerik:
notification icons?

You can also download SMS Popup, gives you a great choice of icons.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Jaynrb:
you can make ur own and replace the ones in the MMS.APK... they are in the RES folder. i replaced mine to these...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Insomaniac10:
Yup, this is the best way to do it. Gut your .apk file, edit the image in res folder, resign .apk, and reinstall.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Lethal_NFS:
Could you upload those .apk files? I would like to use those with mine.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Jaynrb:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WBSVGEBC just push the mms.apk to ur system/app/

i just extract the apk files with winrar then edit the folder and drop it back in the APK with winrar. works the same and dont have to resign every time i make a change.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Lethal_NFS:
Thanks man, really appreciate it.
[Nexus S General] avniii:
I am a current n1 owner rooted and all that good stuff, but usually before i purchase something I look it up online and see what the deal is.

I checked out the specs it looks pretty nice(just as good as evo4g droidx desirehd)

Yeah each phone has its pros and cons, but the nexus s is ****ing SICK I was in both verizon and sprint stores yesterday and checked out the samsung phones, for they all use the same screen and the quality of the devices are amazing. Yeah there lightweight and not made of a metallic material but no1 says the that about exotic cars being light weight either haha idk bad analogy maybe.

Nexus S is really nice tbh coming from a nexus 1 owner who is severely disappointed with the plain display and HORRRRRRRRRRRRRRIBLE touch screen nexus S rocks nexus ones socks off.

Still disappointed about the video recording situation and i understand its a software issue instead of hardware which makes me very happy so no worries on that front.

Also I use my nexus one with the stock SD card which is only 4 gigs and I think that is plenty enough for me and i only fill it up from nandroid backups haha idk this is just my view on things and for those who are uncertain about buying a nexus s. Def going to bestbuy tommorow to buy me one of these then ima buy a oem housing for my n1 and new battery and give it to my brother (his first android phone) he will def love it just as much as i did.

But the matter of the fact is that i dont see why people say its a let down when google obviously knew what the phone would be they said they worked with every department of samsungs engineer team to make the phone so these specs are going to be as up to date as the nexus one was and still is.

These dual core phones although are probably going to be ****ing epic and stuff, but like honestly what are we all going to use these dual cores for? saving battery would probably be the biggest pro but like dual cores processors wtf are we gonna do play some pc games or render movies? idk thats just me !

what you guys think?
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
*see any of the dozen other threads about this*
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Lately, as people settle down and get to know their Nexus S, the issues are starting to revolve around Gingerbread 2.3. It is chalk full of glitches and issues (random ringtone changes, difficulty in moving icons, some screen scrolling issues, and a slew of others...) which seems to be shared by many owners.

Google has their work cut out for them in future updates.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
but judging how fast they pushed out 2.3.1 they are up for the job :P
[Nexus S General] DKYang:
It's because everyone is brain washed by the terms Steve Jobs uses a lot. "Revolutionary" and "Magical."
[Nexus S General] diversificationied:
Not really, the .1 update is just the changes from finalizing AOSP approvals.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZS8HqOGTbA&feature=related

You should get a great laugh out of that DKYang ;)
[Nexus S General] mklgee:
That's because people that love their nexus s and haven't had any issues with it aren't starting threads praising how good it is because they are too busy playing with the phone =D
[Nexus S General] kolyan:
I believe its hardware, not software. But some day can be hacked with reduced FPS, just like Nexus One

All Google and Samsung knew is that they dont need to spend money on building the phone because it already existed for 6 month. They had lots of time to test Gingerbread on this hardware, and things like lack of Gorilla, LED, Bluetooth 3.0, SD-card, make me think they ran out of parts and used whatever was available at the time.....and in the end the phone is close to $600 bucks with tax in USA and even more in EU.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
for me it's hardware deficiency lack of microSD support, no Bluetooth 3.0, the software is clean which is perfect IMO
[Nexus S General] kolyan:
I think people that are coming from other phones and maybe some Nexus One owners are happy with NS (I would be), But people with Galaxy S line phones (as myself) look at Nexus S as a downgrade. If NS was FREE or maybe $50 bucks, then I would give it some thought, but for $600 there is nothing to think about. Ps. I dont use FFC, flash/flashlight is pretty much the only positive hardware I see in NS.
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
It isn't a downgrade at all if you're sick of waiting for Samsung and/or T-Mobile to deliver the newest and latest Android. Not only that but open-sourced kernels, Samsung Vibrant (and other Galaxy S phones) relies on leaks and the final version has not been released. Who knows when they will become available.
[Nexus S General] shep211:
2.3 runs fine on my captivate. I dont have any of the issues you are talking about. I read that a lot of people are having issues with the new screen. It may not be all 2.3 related.
[Nexus S General] kolyan:
I was sick of waiting......not anymore. I really dont care about official 2.2 because leaked Froyo for Vibrant is 100% fast and stable (with Nero and Voodoo). As far as 2.3 vs 2.2, for me they are the same...2.3 featuring looks and animations outside and game optimization under the hood. I already have all Ginger looks and animations, and i dont play games. I would put it this way, Touchwiz 2.2 has MUCH more useful features then 2.3

PS. It looks like Vibrants in USA officially get shipped with Froyo already. EDIT: ****ing Samsung switched the dates again
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
yes, waiting for 2.2 was an agony for SGS owners, now that most devices are on 2.2 it'll be another big challenge to get 2.3 for the rest of the SGS line up.

and it's true SGS takes to long to receive any Official release of 2.2/2.3 all 2.2 and now 2.3 that people got their hands on, was all leaked out or ported from other phones.

that's the only positive thing i like about the NS
[Nexus S General] atlp99:
People are complaining for two main reasons.

1. The hardware is nothing groundbreaking, the Nexus One was far better than anything else available when it launched. The Nexus S hardware is not bad but it is not any better than what is already on the market. I think people expected the Nexus line of phones to move Android forward, the way the Nexus One did and the Nexus S did not do that. The hardware just did not move the bar like the Nexus One did.

The only advantage to the Nexus S is the software (getting updates first and pure Android). This is enough for me to consider getting one in addition to my G2, but many people won't think this is a big enough difference to justify the purchase.

2. People always expect more when they pay more, I would bet more people paid full price for their Nexus S than other phones. Higher expectations = more complaints.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Personally, my complaints are entirely about Gingerbread. It's disappointing to see so many glitches with stock Android.
[Nexus S General] A_Flying_Fox:
Lol!

But yeah i dont think its the phone being bashed for being whack...its just peoples expectations for the ns was set a lil too high.

Samsung couldve saved so much time just removing touchwiz from the gs
[Nexus S General] A_Flying_Fox:
.....+1 this was said so beautifully.
[Nexus S General] :
I think it's a great phone, no problems what so ever here. Micro SD card means nothing to me cause I've used iPhones in the past so used to not needing one.

People are just nit picking.
[Nexus S General] wondercoolguy:
People are nit picking because when the Nexus One came out it set the standard for 2010 phones are still coming out with 1ghz processors. People (I) thought that Nexus S would do the same, the Nexus S is an excellent device. SD, 4g, and dual core were deal breakers for me. I don't want to turn this into a would have, should have, could have thread I was just making a statement I am a N1 owner.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Dual Core wont even be supported with gingerbread from what i've read. I really dont understand the need for a dual core unless its for battery saving, somehow. Thats whats missing from all android devices when you compare them to the almighty apple. IMHO
[Nexus S General] Syphon Filter:
There are a lot of threads about this and they're aiming at the Nexus S in particular.

However, has anyone considered we're just reaching something of a plateau in mobile technology, even if only for a the short-term??

All through 2010 what were the big changes/evolutions in mobile tech? Not a lot that I can recall. The HTC HD2 was basically the template for every major device (at least any device any of us here would be concerned about/interested in) on the market.

I think we've simply reached lull in mobile phone tech. Sure you can bung in more storage space, a dual core processor etc but to what end?

There are only 2 issues I have with the Nexus S in terms of hardware; the screen could have been "retina display" and SD card expansion would have been nice (but I can live without that).

Oh and the build quality could be better, I've got used to having HTC devices and Samsung has a long way to come before they can match the "feel" of an HTC device with a metal body etc.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
I agree with the SD card expansion thing, but maybe that's just the start to a more cloud centered android? As far as retina display, i really have a hard time noticing a big difference, unless its zoomed out on a full web page. Build quality although is plastic, it still feels like a solid device.
[Nexus S General] Syphon Filter:
I accept your point about retina display, The iPhone 4 is a 3.5" screen and the pixel density is insane. However, I am a self-diagnosed pixel-density junkie, more is better imo :D

I'm not sold on the build quality, I have my HD2 sat here next to my Nexus S and I can tell you which I think feels more solid, there's a quantifiable difference. In fact (here's a little story for you) on my Nexus S the bottom edge of the battery cover creaked, particularly around the headphone/microUSB. I took the cover off to inspect/see if it was seated properly and the material is just rubbish. It's so thin and flexible that I think a single drop would see it cracked/broken. Compare that to the HD2 which is just so solid and every panel fits so well with the others.

Oh and to fix the creaking issue, I have put a couple of pieces of electrical/insulating tape along the bottom edge of the battery cover, it fits more snuggly now and the creaking is resolved. However, this will not do anything in the even of a drop, which reminds me...I must get a rubber case (along with a screen protector) or something asap!
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
well the reason Samsung went for plastic rather than metal body was to save on the weight of the phone

i have old HTC phones, and they weight a lot, basically my Shirt will go to one side when i put my HTC phone into the front pocket

but after switching to SGS and now SNS when you put the phone into the front pocket, your Shirt doesn't shift down to the left as with all the other phones

it's a good trade off if you ask me
[Nexus S General] draugaz:
I have more issues.

1. "Real world" battery life. S-Amoled is a real battery hog in many common scenarios like black text on white background.

2. Real antenna diversity. They usually put radio antennas at the bottom of the device to fool the SAR measurement system. Which is completely counterproductive if you naturally hold your phone in your hand. Thus we need another antenna at the other end of the phone. And use the one which works best at the given moment.

3. Simultaneous second SIM card support. Probably not so interesting in the USA where telcos sell most of the phones, but in the rest of the world it is not uncommon to have the mobile network penetration well over 100% :)

Quite a few people are forced to carry around their private and company phones. This sucks. And sometimes you want your voice services from telco X and data from telco Y. You would be forced to carry 2 phones to be able to get use of this.

It is not a technical novelty, nowadays every chinese knock-off have 2 or more SIM card slots.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
The battery life on my Nexus S has been far greater than I expected coming from other android handsets. including the SAMOLED Captivate. As for #2 and #3, im not too concerned. My Nexus has great reception in my area and I personally have no need for a second SIM slot (are there any android devices with dual SIM other than the overseas KRIFs?)
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] xilpaxim:
So, looking around, found out that the music visualization wallpapers that are on Android use an API that has not been released publicly, and that is why there are not a bunch of music visualizers out there like in Winamp and WMP. I wonder if they will release them with 2.3? I would enjoy this immensely.

Or maybe I am just not looking in the right place and some exist?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] unreal4:
i have a herald and installed tribshell and i like it so much.. but i think phone lock is alittle bit long. i mean i have to first hit start button, then left softkey (or lock icon on the screen). its locked. and to turn off screen,i hit power button..

its 3 hit for locking..

cant we decrease it to 1, only power button.. i mean hitting power button locks phone.. like S2U2.. is it possible??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] unreal4:
anyone???????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RedRamage:
I have a TouchPro2, and it worked much the same way. There is a program out there that allows for turning off the screen to automatically lock the phone. Works great for me. I'm not sure if it will work on your device, but I'll see if I can dig up the thread I found it in.

EDIT: Here's the thread here I got it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649695&highlight=lock

Again, this is for a TouchPro2, so I dunno if it'll work on your device, but it might be worth a try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] unreal4:
i will try it.. thnx
[Android] BThomas22x:
My apologies I completely goofed it up... I was thinking of something else... you can't do the data local like that... take away the mkdir data local and replace delete data local with "delete_recursive DATA:data" minus the quotation marks of course
[Android] nprussell:
Right. This is an easy one...

First of all, I'm going to assume that you have no data/local in your ROM, or it wouldn't be giving you that error.

So...

Get rid of the line that's setting the permissions. More often than not, common sense is all that is needed with simple errors like this. In future, if you're getting an error when flashing, find out the cause of the error through the error message, then check your directory structure against your update script.

Anyway, I'll save you a job:

set_perm 2000 2000 0771 DATA:local

Delete that. ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hello1686hk:
I have searched for this issue but I cannot find an answer

I have just done a factory reset to my XT720, which was rooted and installed with apps2sd. I noticed that after resetting, the apps that are on the SD card cannot be found in the menu.

Also, when I try to install apps2sd again through adb, it shows a few errors:

warning'/system/bin/busybox' exists, use -f to overwrite

warning'/system/lib/modules/ext2.ko' exists, use -f to overwrite insmod:can't insert 'system/lib/modyles/ext.ko':File exists

mkdir failed for /system/sd, File exists

mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /system/sd failed: Device or resource busy

sorry, mount sd ext2 fail!!!

So what should I do to get apps2sd back working?

I am still a newbie to Android and please forgive me if this is a stupid question. If there is a solution out there, I'll appreciate if somebody can post the link for me. I have been searching for 2 hours....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mrmako777:
Reflashing my phone worked for me... maybe try that and then reinstall... should work fine
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hello1686hk:
Thanks for your help

But is there another way to fix it?

And will the apps come back after I install the apps2sd again?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] forbrand:
delete files, that couldn't be removed throuth adb, using Root Explorer and try to reinstall App2SD again. I like more Move2SD Enabler than App2SD.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hello1686hk:
thanks forbrand

i've solved the problem by flashing the rom.

Apps2sd installed smoothly after flashing

I didn't know there is sth called Move2SD.

How is it better than Apps2sd, say easier installation?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] forbrand:
move2sd efforts to move applications to sd which app2sd doesn't affort and after moving everything works fine.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] AllGamer:
are you sure it's Move 2 SD ? i though that was only for Froyo

the only App APK that works in 2.1 is App2Card... as far as i know.

and App2SD is a script
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] forbrand:
i have froyo on my motoroi but app2card worked perfect on 2.1 version. app2card worked ****ty on froyo so i changed it to move2sd.
[Galaxy Tab General] ianandamy:
I know I'm just crabbin I was wondering whether or not anyone knows if anyone's going to start developing custom roms for this thing.

Anyways, I am new to the forum (and development) and I keep seeing post regarding different ROMs/flashing/rooting and whatnot. Can someone please educate me on these topics since I no nothing about ROMs yet I am willing to learn? And Im also sorry if this type of question has been posted before.
