[Nexus S Android Development] treUse:
Didn't work for me either, so I opened the extracted folder. Turns out the real nandroid was inside the first folder, which caused the mismatch.

------------------------------------------------

My experience so far:

- it feels a little sluggish and laggy at times.

- I'd love to see support for our physical touch buttons, and a removal of the corresponding buttons on the dock.

- in portrait mode you can't see the whole screen; widgets and icons gets clipped.

- the accelerometer seems unresponsive; sometimes it doesn't react to to turning the phone to a landscape, respectively a portrait view.

- as others have mentioned (and yourself): sometimes the touchscreen gets unresponsive, and it's fixable by turning the device. Unless I'm wrong the netarchy kernels gives the ability to edit touchscreen responsivity. Maybe that can help.

Thanks for your hard work, I have high hopes for this one :)

Edit:

- A red frame pops up when changing settings.
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
I didn't quite catch that, what do you mean?

What did you do?
[Nexus S Android Development] treUse:
Opened extracted folder > realized the real nandroid folder was inside the first folder > moved the real nandroid to /backups > deleted the folder that contained the nandroid earlier > restored nandroid.

Basically this is how it was:

2011-07-04.zip/2011-07-04(folder)/2011-07-04(folder, holding files).

Hope it helps :)
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
I extracted the folder, then inside the folder was the Nandroid backup, which I placed in the backup folder, but it still gives me the damn error.
[Nexus S Android Development] deejaylobo:
Try downloading the file again, and also try old and new versions of CWM...again.
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
jroid, do you have a flashable version?
[Nexus S Android Development] treUse:
So it's looking exactly like your other nandroids?

Strange, sorry I couldn't help :(
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
Strange indeed, thanks anyway

hi everybody i have been using this build like two hours now actually i am writing this with it.. at first i can say that its simply amazing.. also i can confirm all of you guys problems with this but i would like to add 3 more for now.. first one is when i touch the clock it opens the date and stuff normally but if i touch again, clock stays visible but the quick setting part is not visible.. second my phone seems to heat alot, normally it never does that... and finally this red frame comes to screen i think even it didnt suppose to..

hi jroid, any improvements? or you just resting for now? and do you think we can get phone call working in future, you know some users told that its possible with a custom kernel. it would be great to use this as a daily rom...

hey any news. is some 1 working on this i would like to work on it please.. provide a detail log of ur startup till alpha 3 as it will be kinda helpful
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
Someone is actively developing it, but I don't think that's jroid.

If you look a few pages back you will find it.
[Nexus S Android Development] jroid:
PM me for further details.
[Nexus S Android Development] jroid:
i'm the only one up until now that has done any work on this port along with others I mentioned who supported me. Please don't make such assumptions.

I have stopped working on it for now because my linux partition got corrupted and lost all data and work. I have not set up my dev env yet due to laziness on my part and partly because Ice cream sandwich is basically around the corner. If others do wanna help ironing out wifi and BT feel free.
[Nexus S Android Development] dario3040:
I don't make any assumptions, I was talking about GalaxyComb.

I think he will port it to the Nexus S too.

Also I just got it working, and it's awesome =9
[Nexus S Android Development] lvnatic:
Uhm I doubt ICS is that close...

How do you know? Did he state that himself?
[Nexus S Android Development] jroid:
That is a port for the Galaxy S. I have my own standalone port for the nexus s. I've already looked at it and doesn't prove useful for my port. So no, unless he said he's working on a nexus S port, I'm the only one who has worked on it.

[Nexus S Android Development] Serious_Beans:
DEV pretty much let this go, ICS is probably a week or two away, no need to develop this any further, it'd be a waste of time.
[Nexus S Android Development] jroid:
I will say this: I will be buying the nexus prime or whatever it's called so that means I'll be selling my nexus s and I won't be supporting it any longer. It won't happen on launch because I simply don't have the cash to buy it outright currently so maybe I can do an sdk port / galaxy nexus system port to it before im ready to buy it. However, after I sell the nexus s, it won't be supported and all development progress will be discontinued. The ONLY way I will support it, is if somebody has an extra nexus s laying around that they don't use and would like to kindly donate it for dev purposes, I will be more than glad to continue support for it. Other than that..i'm catching the next nexus train

Unzip, you find a folder inside another folder. Move it out, wait remname the folder from this 2011-07-04.21.08.40 to this 2011-07-04-21.08.40.

Take note of 2011-07-04-21.08.40
[Nexus S Android Development] BinaryXeroMedia:
I don't think we will get ICS until mid November TBH. Google will want to sell as many galaxy nexus's as possible before updating us. Hopefully I'm wrong and they release not long after but I don't think they will. Also I bet the ns4g gets it first like always.
[Nexus S Android Development] mak213:
ya well i mean if ns4g gets it first itll be easy task to port over no big deal but ya hopefully they dont take long like they did with nexus one and gingerbread took them like month to release
[Nexus S Android Development] wootroot:
so wait...

you want me to wipe...

why? that's pointless... *sigh*

Great. Actually works pretty well for me. Screen flashes like you said but other than that it runs so smooth. I can't wait until this is stable enough to use daily. Very nice find :D

So what about to change topic or new topic for ICS.

Yeah I know about the thread. I been following it on their forums. Thought I read it wasnt using new kernel though. Which was why I suggested releasing the ics dev build boot.img

We've all been waiting for an essentially useless OS for a device we use all the time, every day? Hey, I appreciate you putting for the effort on bringing something new to the Nexus S but a phone with the bug list (What doesn't: the whole 9 yards) longer than a Charlie Sheen diatribe is far from sexy to me.

android users like you make me sad dude. our phones are some of the most versatile devices on the market and has an os (minus custom uis) that is arguably one of the truest "smart-phone" experiences. theres a reason y unlike apple, google doesnt try and come up with new ways to lock people out of their own phones with every update. they give us an awesome base and allow us to either enjoy what we have, tweak it to our liking, or go flash crazy. the choice is yours. so instead of downing the awesomeness that is the new iteration of our already groundbreaking os, y dont you put down the haterade and quit with such inane posts. /rant

[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
lol that flicker is ridiculous. I wonder what is causing it...is it an issue with the display drivers?

I mean, really aside from the flicker its not much different from the other alpha ports. First thing you have to get working is the basic functions of the OS and lets be completely honest: it runs. Is it usable? No, not really but its damn cool. And the screen shots in your link show that it at least will be usable; what I mean is that the UI works on the screen. Its not too tiny to use and that really lends a lot of credence to the rumors that it will be coming to us.

The lib for the display is what needs to be called, libinput.so handles touchscreen but display is what's flickering. I have the hw libs in /system but the ones in /vendor/lib/hw when merged to /system/lib is causing a hang at netd. That's why some stuff isn't working (flickering, sensors) cause those libs are not being used. Trying to find some way to get them merged in and called without it hanging on boot.

So lets make a BOUNTY? Why not? I think It's a good idea, and It will make this rom become stable faster =))

why? Honeycomb is built to be used on tablets.

Optimizing a ROM based off a SDK port isn't a good idea at all.
