you need the drivers for the nexus s. easiest way to install them is via the pdanet website.

I think there's a sticky in the general section that guides you thru using it Ubuntu

Ubuntu on SGT2 (31xx)

Hi,
Not been around for a while but with the new Ubuntu OS Phones recently being show cased for development, I've been looking into running an Ubuntu distro on my tab via chroot/virtual box.
Has anyone here messed about with it and got it working ? These tabs seem a little under powered for the job IMO. Just curious to see if anyone has dabbled with it and any views they have on the subject.I do know where the official thread is , just seeing if any 31xx users have tried it out.
Thanks.
This is yet another reason I need a galaxy nexus. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like Ubuntu OS for Android is going to be on the Nexus before its even out to OEM's as a proper phone, You just know some of that stuff will be ported over to Android
I'm going to try and get the "desktop" distro working and if I cant I prolly sell this tab and get the Nexus as it seems to be getting all the goodness. SGT2 7 is a good lil tablet but it will be a legacy device sooner rather than later.
I put my tab on Craigslist tonight looking to trade for a nexus 7. http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/ele/3520721877.html
I have to sell mine first or trade it. I can buy a n7 at Walmart here for 199.
Sorry for being off topic.

Come up of the year.

Recently went to a yard sale and found a Nexus S for sale $5 Guy said his kid messed it up that it didn't turn on. I thought to my self what the heck and bought it when I got home I went on XDA. It was a simple thing all I had to do was access boot screen and do a reset. Working great..
But now i have a question to any who read this. Now so far all I know is that is Sprint Nexus S but I see there is also a 4g I know its a dumb question but where would I find it. Now my new mission for the week is finding out before I start flashing Roms. So far I have a Galaxy 2, a Nexus S, hopefully soon Galaxy 4 and the phone that started my addition Galaxy S Captivate.
Any one have any good ROM,apps, and kernal recommendations would appreciate.

MP3 player/15gig memory stick

Why don't you go into system settings, about phone will tell you the phone model. I doubt flashing wrong one will jack it up though, just wont boot. The ns4g is CDMA network and ns is gsm, other than that very similar.

New forum for Nexus 7?

What's the new nexus 7 going to be called. It has to have something that will distinguish it from the old one in its name. Is a new forum going to be made for it?

It's still a nexus 7, right? So why would it get a new forum? Any specific information will usually state either nexus 7.2 or second gen or similar verbiage.

Maybe the development forums could get separate sections, just as the 3G version has its own forum section. Would make sense that 2nd gen got its own developer forum as well, since the hardware is completely different...

STock Deodex rom

Man I got this phone thinking I was going to be able to mod it up. basically no development and I cant even get my rom att rom Deodex
Gotta love non-developers crabbing about no development. You want to see a lack of development, go look in the note 3 forums. There's more development here than on the last 2 devices I've had at this stage of the game. What do you expect? You know you can come in and check these threads before you buy, right?
