Hey for some time ago i found an ext4 flashable zip file in this thread, but since this thread has become very large i cant find it any more, does anyone still have the download link? Thanks a lot

if you go into camera and press the softkey menu button, advanced options shows up and you can assign the volume keys to take pictures, or the search button.

theres even some special features like, focus press down, release takes the picture... i think this was implemented as of nightly #5?
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
Why thank you

Is koush the only maintainer for the NS?
[Nexus S General] LordPhong:
Which Trinity are you using for build #9? I can't seem to get any of them to work. It gets stuck on the nuclear blast screen for over 5mins. Then I just give up.
[Nexus S General] dingdonghei:
there is a specific kernel built for cm. Link is earlier in this thread. Boots fine on my device, but reboots when performing heavy tasks like dungeon defenders. hope its just a hz issue or something, cause I live in Norway and can't exchange my device for another one that easily...
[Nexus S General] hah2110:
Which agent in messaging should I select?
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
IMO trinity kernels are not stable in 3d apps 1.3-1.4 cause GPU or CPU overheat after prolong usage start to see very slow rendering and eventually clause locks and reboot

all trinity kernels seem to slow down 3d rendering slightly right away for some reason ive tested 1.2-1.3 on 3 NS phones on various ROMS...no im not exaggerating

might have to do with FPS cap removed, refresh rate how ever they do it. Regular phone usage they show speed improvement but in 3d rendering they seem slower...even though they show higher framerate

compared to stock 1ghz

this was the same problem with 1.6 kernel for vibrant that was eventually pulled. The NS/trinity is not as bad but still noticeable
[Nexus S General] generalagony:
There is an mms.apk with black background thread in the themes and apps section. Delete the stock messaging app using titanium and install the new mms.apk. worked for me. Hopefully the devs include the fixed apk in their roms soon.
[Nexus S General] Vulpix:
Wow, for a nightly, this v9 is pretty darn stable.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
That Im aware of, he may be the only maintainer but that doesnt mean its just him, anyone can submit a CM feature or a bugfix to be included as long as it passes QC.

So im sure there are more people actually doing work on CM for the NS
[Nexus S General] dingdonghei:
This might not be the thread for this, but basically it seems the NS has a rather poor potential for overclocking? Or could it be fixed with more mature kernels? The performance boost in normal use with the 1.4 kernel is quite substantial, and it would be nice to have it stabily running at that speed.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
the 1.4ghz kernel is very stable with cm on my phone. it might even be MORE stable than the stock 1ghz kernel, for me.
[Nexus S General] dingdonghei:
Annoying... :) would that mean I've been unlucky with my phone or could it be that I've not been thorough when installing the kernel? I didn't wipe, for example, but I can't see why that should cause reboots during heavy gpu load. Any 1.3 kernel for cm available btw?
[Nexus S General] simms22:
it could be anything. every phone reacts differently to different kernels.
[Nexus S General] dinan:
Have 2 nexus S's, one I got on launch day, another I got for a friend recently, they can both run CM7 nightly build 7 with the 1.4 kernel well. Both can play dungeon defenders (although I didn't try for more than 5 minutes).

I guess if you're going to play a heavy game like dungeon defenders you should use setcpu to cap it at 1ghz since you don't really need 1.4ghz for it. I'll test this out later and see if it's just as playable as 1.4ghz while saving battery.
[Nexus S General] Guitarfreak26:
Mine runs ok on 1.4 but I get quite a few random reboots!!
[Nexus S General] asci:
Never mind, mine reboots after set up, with 1.4 Kernel for CM
[Nexus S General] mak213:
are you suppose to wipe before nightly updates? i havn't been but everytime i dont my phone app force closes every 2 seconds therefore leaves no signal etc and pop up of force close every second it wont repair the issue unless i go out wipe cache,data and reinstall update then presto
[Nexus S General] mojonation1487:
This might just be specific to your phone. I've never had to wipe everything. Only build 8 killed my sms every time I tried it.
[Nexus S General] mak213:
ya it sucksss lol it forces me to wipe theres nothing i can do about it i cant even navigate to settings or anywhere due to the constant pop up
[Nexus S General] simms22:
i get that fc with the phone app every once in a while to after updating. i havent wiped since unlocking the bootloader. what i do to fix that issue with the force closing phone app and no signal is that i restore a backup then flash the rom again. that takes care of the issue for me. its happened on 3 different updates on my phone.
[Nexus S General] dudeimgeorge:
seriously, enough

trinity plus CM will cause some sort of instability. thats all there is to it.
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
What exactly did you include in that?
[Nexus S General] terryhau:
The 2.3.3 OTA update actually contains a new radio and bootloader. If you're planning to only update to 2.3.3 through CM7 and not use the official update, you won't get these updates. However you can manually update them yourself. I don't think it's strictly neccesary. I just did it because i'm obsessive. And it's possible these new versions contain fixes related to random reboots? I don't know. However do it at your own risk.

Download the OTA:

http://android.clients.google.com/p...2cf141e6a.signed-soju-ota-102588.f182cf14.zip

Extract radio.img and bootloader.img

Boot into bootloader/fastboot mode

To flash the radio, use the fastboot command:

fastboot flash radio radio.img

select "reboot bootloader" and you should see the new version of the radio

To flash the bootloader:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

select "reboot bootloader" and you should see the new version of the bootloader

The new version numbers:

radio I9020XXKB1

bootloader I9020XXKA3

The versions that came with my phone:

radio I9020XXJK8

bootloader I9020XXJK1
[Nexus S General] erikwervo:
Anyone notice if 2.3.3 yellowish thing actually almost similar with one of cm render fx? I think google actually got the idea from cm lol.
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
People are blowing it way out of proportion. Its actually a lot more natural but because most screens nowadays are tuned to look very blue (human eyes read blue as very bright white) calibrating them to be warmer and more natural makes them seem duller and more yellow since yellow is the inverse of blue.
[Nexus S General] jlevy73:
Anyone on cm7 try out the new radio?
[Nexus S General] jlevy73:
It's a build that @Gearhead compiles every night based on the latest CM commits.
[Nexus S General] erikwervo:
@ kenvan19... Agree.. me dont mind with it since also get used to the cm's render fx. On my previous nightly im using black wallpaper, darkginger theme plus cool render fx. Never had problem with battery life :D
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
build #7 up.
[Nexus S General] terryhau:
Im using it now, and everything is working as normal so far.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
anyone care to upload the radio?
[Nexus S General] vroomr4:
from this post...i found this link to the 2.3.3 update..

i attached the radio and bootloader from 2.3.3 in 7z archives..just unpack to your tools folder and flash using fastboot per this post
[Nexus S General] avetny:
I feeling to night is gonna be 2.3.3! thats why yesterday build 8 fail
[Nexus S General] yungfresh:
I really hope so! Hopefully it will have updated radio as well.
[Nexus S General] mrRobinson:
So if 2.3.3 goes in cm nightly we still need to flash the radio and the bootloader?
[Nexus S General] avetny:
no i think no
[Nexus S General] chrlswltrs:
I was just thinking about something, and if I am wrong someone please correct me.

Google has only disabled Facebook sync on the Nexus S not any other current device that will receive 2.3.3

CM ROMs are based on code from AOSP which is not device specific (or is it??)

So if we only update to 2.3.3 through CM7 on the Nexus S we should still be able to sync contacts with Facebook...

If my logic is wrong here, someone with more knowledge of CM and AOSP please correct me
[Nexus S General] terryhau:
CM does not include radio or bootloader updates.

I was thinking that too. I think you're right, this change won't be in AOSP.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
gratzy to the good sir who uploaded the radio and bootloader :)
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
and what he really means is no you dont HAVE to flash a new radio or bootloader, but if you wanna its okay.

Its not like the N1 where there was a million different radios to choose from so your choices are limited, try the new one if you dont like it then u can always flash back
[Nexus S General] jlevy73:
Did you flash the new radio and bootloader over the last nightly build? If so, have you noticed any difference?
[Nexus S General] matt_stang:
Actually this change will be in AOSP, even though it only effects the NS. Though the change is device specific, it is not something that is only included in the 2.3.3 OTA. It is a change made in AOSP which effects the NS and future "Google" devices (until facebook changes their app). It will be undoubtedly be simple to undo it but (unless it is changed) when CM goes to 2.3.3, facebook sync will be disabled for NS.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
yea flashed it with 7.

as of now i havent really noticed any major difference. Ill see how battery does today/reception and all that good stuff that goes along with flashing a radio :) but nothing is broken so i say go ahead and flash :)
[Nexus S General] mrRobinson:
oh I didn't realize I could flash them before being on 2.3.3
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
so is nightly 7 2.3.3 or 2.3.2?
[Nexus S General] jlevy73:
2.3.2.....
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
maybe we will see 2.3.3 tonight.

and you all dont gotta worry about the colors cause supercurio updated voodoo color

EDIT:

err his voodoo kernel, which will prolly propagate to the other kernels out there.
[Nexus S General] fineiwill89:
sorry for the noob question but what does a new radio/bootloader exactly do? advantages? and how does it affect stock 2.3 vs cm7?
[Nexus S General] jlevy73:
Short answer: It's a process that starts the OS when the user turns on their device. A boot sequence is the initial set of operations that the computer performs when power is switched on. ...

Radio is what communicates with cell towers. It controls, amongst other things, cell reception, quality etc. While mainly responsible for anything involving phone operations it plays a big part in battery life.
[Nexus S General] brian6685:
So has anyone noticed any better battery life with the new radio?

Nexus S - cm7
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Just this couple hours I've been using it I've noticed slower battery drain. Maybe it fixes the inaccurate battle readings ..but so far so good
[Nexus S General] brian6685:
are you in 2.3.3 or did you just flash the new radio?

[Nexus S General] dsellers2:
Since were on the topic of radios I have a question and didn't want to start a whole new thread for it. Is there a flashable file for the new radio floating around? All i've seen is fastboot methods. Is it possible to flash via clockwork like we could only the galaxy vibrant of is it different?

Thanks,

CM7 nightly 7 with latest radio and bootloader
[Nexus S General] foreman31:
I just flashed the new radio only, running nightly #7 and reception has improved
[Nexus S General] sedde:
I wont be updating my bootloader anytime soon as samsung did this thing with thale galaxy tab and included a checkpoint to prevent flashing unassigned roms/kernels and we only found out until it was too late. I expect you guys to be cautious when flashing bootloaders as it can truly brick your phones and they can only be revived by jtaging them. Now for the radio/rom part flash whatever you want unless that roms contain bootloaders. Just my 2 cents.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
while you are right, remember that the nexus s, just like the nexus one, is googles baby. they dont play like big bad samsung. google loves us :D
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
.......Google wouldnt lock us out of this device like that, really defeats the purpose of a Nexus device if they did

and about the screen color, right from googles mouth

Can anyone here in this thread help me to understand? Is it possible to flash a radio via cwm.

If it's possible and someone packages it up for me I would be willing to donate 10 or 20 dollars for your time. :) Thanks in advance!
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
if you check in the general section someone posted a thread about asking for the radio in a flashable package

Okay this is starting to get frustrating. After about a day of using a nightly, out of nowhere I get this com.phone error where the network doesn't even work and i keep getting fcs. I try to go to mobile networks settings and it says something about cdma networks which makes no sense because I'm on T-Mobile. everytime this happens I have to wipe everything and flash again because nothing else fixes it. Anyone have any ideas about this?

Edit: It sstarted since nightly 5 I think. And I've been wiping each time.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
try clearing dalvik/cache....and CDMA still applies to T-mo just not like you think
[Nexus S General] brian6685:
Did that, still got the same error. Also tried fixing permissions and flashing the nightly over it, all of it was a nogo
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
hmmm nandroid what you have incase it doesnt work and do a full wipe?
[Nexus S General] brian6685:
Yeah that's what I keep having to do and its annoying because it randomly happens....

I have just been reading mixed opinions on whether or not to flash the new bootloader as it can have compatibility issues with ROMs and kernels. Didn't see any reason not to update the radio.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
fair enough, i updated both, the way i see it is if there is any issues you can always flash back :P

True, but since I haven't read of any advantages to the new bootloader I am just going to wait to update that until CM7 and Netarchy's kernel are both confirmed working with it. If there was an advantage to it I would go ahead and update and flash back if needed.

whats so confusing about that, you dont think we'll get 2.4, cause i guarantee you we will

new SEXY boot animation on my cm7 nightly...

VIDEO---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrAoqgAzKyQ

download---> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2769033/bootanimation.zip

instructions...

download the boot animation. using root explorer, copy this bootanimation.zip to the /system/media/ folder. yes, copy over the one thats already there. then just reboot. YOU are doing this to your phone, not me. DO NOT FLASH THIS, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.as i didnt flash it so im not sure that you can.

i do not know who made this but thank you very much. and much thanks to Avetny for passing this to me :D

[Nexus S General] simms22:
you can go back to CM7 and just flash the radio :D
[Nexus S General] irishrally:
The only things I'm missing from CM7 are the lack of cyanabread/theming and the notification widgets. 2.3.3 is blazing fast and very stable so far. Maybe some of the speed is due to a fresh install but it's very quick either way.

Google apps wont install

I've tried install the gapps a few times. redownloaded the latest version twice and it doesn't seem to be working for me. I just go into CW Rocovery and select flash from sdcard and select the gapps.zip. goes though ok but when I boot up CM7 no gapps :confused: So is this something with the nightlys that might be corrected later. I have the latest nightly build (02/27). or is there another way to install them?

on a side note how do I get fastboot setup with my Nexus S on Ubuntu 10.10? Anyone got a thread for the udev permissions?

edit: Nevermind I found one for the udev. Thank you Google.:D

edit: Dumb luck fixed it. I was looking at some of the other options in CW and saw there was a fix permission button. pressed it. It did its thing I rebooted and all the gapps showed up!
