2 issues with a new nexus s - Nexus S General

Hello,
i just bought a new nexus s (I9020) and after root i installed NScollab 1.0.18.
having 2 issues:
1. the browser won't launch, everytime i try to launch it i get an force close.
2. the battery won't charge over 98%, it's plugged to the charger for about 10 hours already and it's stuck at 98%.
thank you!

Did you do a full wipe before installing the custom rom? If not don't know about the browser not launching .The battery is not going charge to 100% with plug in charge, because of the safety charging feature.

I try to do a full wipe and install cm7-browser working. After that i did a full wipe and installed nscollab-browser not working.
About the charge-what is that feature?

read this thread.. it's explained why there is such feature.

Thank you. Any idea about the browser issue?

So, CM7 browser works, but NSCollab's doesnt? That's strange since NSCollab is basically CM7 with few modifications that shouldn't cause any major issues. Have you asked in the NSCollab thread to see if anyone else had the problem?

Screen unresponsive

Basically, my N7's screen is frequently unresponsive. I was trying to start something in my launcher, and tried pressing it at least 6 times, but nothing happened. Then I tried swiping between launcher pages, and that worked just fine the first time.
This just started happening on an almost constant basis within the last 30-60 minutes, and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or heard of anyone else experiencing it. I'm running the latest Minimus with Jassy's latest kernel (I just flashed them this morning, but it was probably 4-5 hours ago at least), with the DPI set to 290 (I just raised it from 280 to see if that would help anything). I also cleared the cache and dalvik.
Any ideas?
My girlfriends tablet has done that too, then it just randomly goes back to just fine

Why don't you try stock and see if you have an issue. This would allow you to rule things out at least.

Same issue here...both stock and CleanROM
me as well. And this is my second tablet after returning the first one for dead pixels
My tablet is stock rooted and I have just experienced this. I had to reboot in order to fix it. Hopefully this doesn't happen again.

Same here this has happened to me on stock, but a reboot fixed it.
I've only experienced this using Chrome. it got so bad that I'm using the molasses-in-the-winter-going-up-hill Firefox browser just to be able to web surf.
Same here stock, and clean ROM.. Haven't noticed anything on kanged cm nor pa yet. Can't get otg to work worth a crap either I bought chainfires app to help with otg worked with stock based ROMs but not cm based ROMs .. I'm pissed I bought the 16 GB model..

It happened to me as well (complete stock). Mostly (if not all) instances were with Chrome. I don't remember it happening again since I switched to Chrome beta. (Fingers crossed).
I just took mine back to Best Buy and exchanged it for the 32gb model. The guy at the store asked if anything was wrong with the tablet and I told him that it would freeze up and I would have to reboot in order to fix it. He told me that all tablets and phones freeze like that and that I should reboot the device at least once a day to prevent the freezing of the screen. I thanked him and told him that I would do that. These salesmen must think that everyone is as dumb as they are.
I hope my new tablet doesn't have the same problem, because if it does I might give up on the new nexus 7.

Nexus Rebooting?

Hi all,
I am currently on Cleanrom 1.3 with faux kernel. No overclock. Today I took my nexus off the charger and it rebooted itself. I understand that using custom kernel and rom will cause some instability but I've heard that the newest nexus 7 does have random reboots stock. I am still under return period, and I am just wondering if anyone else had experienced this and will you keep this knowing it might be a software issue.

I am on stock.
I had a reboot problem with mine. It showed about %50 battery life when it would first startup, then suddenly it would reboot, and continue the boot loop. I reset/clear cache and it would still happen. Then I fully charged the battery then it worked again. I exchanged it because I don't want to deal with the hassle and did not find anyone else with this problem. Only had 2 more days to return it, so I went for it.
I think the problem I actually had was the battery, it was reporting to the device that it was about 50% when it probably had none. I kept wondering why after so long of heavy usage the battery wasn't ran down already. Since you just took it off the charger, I don't know about your case.
Hopefully I won't see the problem with the exchanged one. I say, if you suspect a hardware issue, replace it. If it is a software issue, maybe they will fix it with an update. Good luck.
Mine reboots allot on stock, very annoying!

[Q] bad battery life, and slow charging

hi, i have 2 problems, maybe one of them is a bug.
i flashed phoenix rom 2 days ago, and the battery life is bad, i get 70% done in 10 hours with 2hour screen on.
and the second problem is, i noticed that when charging my phone, according to current widget it charges @ 1200ma while the adapter says 2A.
i have experience with phoenix rom, on note 2 and also on my s4, but that was a while ago, but i flashed other roms and now back to phoenix (always with full wipe) and now my bat life is bad.
plz help me
Try flashing other rom and see how it goes...

[Q] Dies at ~70% charge

My nexus 10 is dying with displayed charge at or around 70%. I had lost the tablet and it was dead for months. Idk if that is relevant or not. It did take a full charge a few times after finding the tablet before the above stated issue occurred. The charger I'm using should be in good shape as it charges my Galaxy S4 w/o issue. Running CM 10.1.3 (Stable).
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Update: now the device is dying while showing charge level in the high 90% mark. Device now dies mid-boot even plugged in. Before it would stay on so long as I kept it plugged in. It will stay on if I go into cwm. That's the curious part.

After doing some research I'm going to guess calibration to be the issue. What to do if calibration is so out of wack it thinks its charged when it's dead?
Update: I ran calibration after I managed to get it to 100%. A few minutes later it died. Curiously I put my tablet in recovery mode and it has stayed on for at least an hour now. However when I try to boot into CM it dies. Every retry it dies a little sooner in boot.
Maybe you could go back to stock via fastboot. If that doesnt work I think tour battery is dead.

Actually I've been letting it sit idle in recovery mode. Its had at least 4 hours to drain now. Haven't been able to kill it yet so I am extra confused. I read the charge with an app and it was at 4400. The tablet is perfectly happy in recovery. I wiped my system partition and reflashed CM. This seemed to have an affect to a degree. Once the dalvik cache was rebuilt the tablet died again and went back to the odd behavior I mentioned. I would prefer to not return to stock unless it is absolutely necessary. I will if I have to but I would like to see if anyone else has seen this issue or has an idea on how to TS it as is.
For the Android junkie this would be a fun issue to trace down. I simply don't have the education. I just created my developer console account and am going through the documentation to create my first app. Clearly outside of Google Fu I'm relatively useless.

Try wiping the battery stats from recovery, if yours lets you.
Have you tried wiping/factory reset and starting with a clean install? As part of all the rebooting, you may have corrupt file(s).

I think in going to have to. I've proved the battery is charged and CWM knows it. I'd like to do a titanium backup to preserve my game data but I don't see how if the darn thing dies mid-boot. May have to bite the bullet on this one

It didn't so I just wiped the whole /system partition (I believe that's where the battery bin exists) and flashed CM back. No good.

Flashed full factory image
I used the image found here to completely wipe and reset all partitions and make the thing like it just came out of the box with no trace of mods left (that I'm aware of). It happily booted in and I got about halfway through initial setup and it died and returned to the same behavior.
What do I do now?

[Help] Battery Drain Problem

Hi All,
Everything was ok till the day before yesterday. But suddenly from yesterday I am facing a huge battery drain problem i.e. 1% per minute on my S4. I am running the latest version of Arrow Rom.
I did format everything and reinstall Arrow Rom but no luck. Then I restored my previous Stock CWM backup and again problem is same.
One more thing my phone's battery is taking too much time to full charge. It takes 5 to 6 minutes to charge 1%. Sometimes it takes more than that.Although my phone is only one year old. When Iam using phone for browsing or chatting with charger plugged in its not charging properly its decreasing.
Can anybody tell me what is the problem?

Your battery is more likely to be uncalibrated. Download Battery Calibration from Google Play and follow the steps on how to calibrate it. It requires ROOT. Any other things that can cause this are wakelocks, be careful what kernel you use. You can monitor wakelocks using Wakelock Detector from Google Play.
Or your battery might be a faulty one, check if its swollen

I don´t believe in calibration. It´s a balast...
How old is the battery?? Over one year? Buy new one.
Or try to use Wakelock detector and after results use Greenify

Use power saving mode install stock rom
Auto brightness
Format sd card
Remove unnessesary apps
Stop all unusual apps like google plus hangout and play books etc etc those you don't use.
Disable chrome use dolfin or other's.
If you are using custom kernel or mods like audio mod or performance mods don't use them.
Auto sync off when not needed
If these steps don't work then change the battery
For charging use 2amp charger with a 16amp socket
Use stock usb
Clean your battery's copper area with petrol and also clean your
Usb cable and ports sockets
Hope this will help
And I know my English is not good.
