Gripe - Nexus S General

What is the purpose of owning a nexus device on a cdma network? I am so tired of google and networks in so many ways. I thought the purpose of owning a nexus device was that I would receive update directly from google. I own a nexus 4 g and a motorola zoom lte and have not received an update in over 4 months. I really hope for google sake there is some improvement in the future with updates of nexus devices.

i know right?
quoted for truth /s
they're pushing out 4.0.4 to source, custom roms will have the fixes, etc added into them soon enough.
if you're on xda, I'd expect that you're running a custom ROM and not stock. if that's not the case, i fail to see why you're on xda asking this, and not on a Sprint forum or Google forum instead voicing your gripe.
^^^^ that goes for all the people complaining about the lack of updates, I'm not singling you out OP. i just don't get it

I don't depend on the carriers anymore for updates. **** I'm running 4.0.4 on my nexus s 4g already because of the devs here. Unlock and flash.....easy as pie.

I'm stock rooted still on GB. I'm not into roms necessarily only reason I root is for wifi tether and titanium backup. Or maybe removing or freezing apps but it doesn't matter on a nexus device. Bottom line is that GS2 and vivid GSM models have gotten updates before my nexus. All I'm saying is CDMA networks do not push updates for nexus devices as they should and google obviously can't provide updates in a timely manor for these devices either. This is a problem with google plus the cdma networks.

ahh ok,I can respect that. Much more than all the other threads on here complaining about not getting the update, yours is more based on the CDMA networks which is the source of the problem for what you're referring to.
That's why I came here cdma updates can be few and far between at times.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk

There isn't a reason really. With an htc device for example you get aosp like cyanogen plus you get sense if you want it. I had both options on my evo shift. No one really knew the cdma nexus experience didn't really mean **** until recently since this was the first cdma nexus.
The good thing about this is that now i have opened myself up to more options for my next phone like the htc one or gs3 where up until about January i was only ever going to get nexus phones even though they are usually lacking in something like the camera, fm radio, no sd slot or whatever. And it doesn't matter since updates won't cone any faster and the wonderful devs keep us up to date.

the files for the cdma radio are proprietary, google has to wait for the networks to provide them. googles part is done and available. they even came said a few months ago that cdma nexii arent considered developer phones anymore, just for that reason. its the cdma networks that you should let know how you feel.

im on 2.3.7, it aint broke so im in no hurry to fix it. when i get an official update then ill update. i dont see what the big deal is

I am a very happy CDMA Nexus S owner. I've been rocking 4.0.4 on my NS4G since this morning, I'm not sure what people are complaining about. Yes, we all thought that since we have Nexus devices we'd get personal invites from Goog to test out their new OS. Turns out this is not true, stupid us for thinking that. But in the end what's the difference? As soon as the update is in AOSP our awesome devs have it ready for us to crackflash. These complaint threads are getting old, when did XDA turn into Facebook?

Because the purpose of purchasing a nexus is not have to wait for the latest software plus have a pure google experience. If I need to flash software that's been out for 4 months like 4.0.3 this is an obvious fail for the nexus program.

It's more a fail on our part for believing Google's marketing. In the end though, we still have the new OS updates available right away via AOSP. They just don't get pushed to our phones via OTA right away. But this is XDA, who the hell wants to sit around waiting for an OTA??

says who? because I just left the sprint store getting my phone replaced, and they said its OTA today for a small rollout. the manager who owns a nexus s who was shocked I had a defected Nexus already had the update, but had no comment since our areas internet was down
I copied that off of my dealer news page in my store
Well, since this is a Nexus, I thought Samsung was not a factor in our updates. If this is the case, its making my decision easier to stick with my EVO 3D and look past the SGS2.
I really like my NS4G, but the intermittent signal issues are not a factor on the EVO.
Guess I'll see what happens.

Would radio updates be pure google? I didn't think so but I'm not positive.

Keep in mind that Sprint had a nationwide SMS failure today, so it could be that they needed to push everything back for maintenance.

Radio drivers are proprietary (thus not a part of the AOSP) and typically are developed and distributed by the hardware manufacturer (in this case Samsung).
But on the other hand they are typically bundled with OS software.
In this case, I would think Samsung would update their radio drivers, give them to Google, Google would build a new ROM and put together an OTA, then in the case of NS4G Sprint might even be involved in pushing it out, and their engineers were a tad busy today.

He was just updated to the current version on his brand new phone, not the rumored upgrade. I doubt that we see anything new today.
Was anticipating the update but oh well. No other phone has a official, stable 2.3.4 yet and we're looking to be set to get 2.3.5 in a couple of days.
Just relax, chances were slim that you'd be among the first 5% anyways and converting the OTA in a useable zip/img w/e would ahve taken some time as well.

I seriously seriously seriously doubt the Android Version is bumped. I'll eat my words if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty confident the update will not change the version to anything other than 2.3.4.

nothing for me either.
I would not worry about it so much. We are all going to have to wait for the devs to work their magics regardless. There will always be an offline method of installation via CWM as usual that is already rooted and has all of that other goodness.
Once the devs take over and get ahold of the OTA zip files, we will see updated versions of their ROMs in no time. They will have the 3.2 features in it with all of their own other custom features/contents. I say... wait for Team Tiamat, they will do their thing. You know it'll be them to do it once again, as almost always. After that, say hello to other iterations of custom 3.2 ROMs, and then updated kernels from all teams that will work on the new 3.2 update. That's my opinion, but I believe it a makes a very good point.
I've got a Wifi Xoom and I got the update too. I tried to restart to install, and got the "exclamation point in a triangle" on boot. I'm rooted with the Tiamat Kernel, so that's probably why it errored out.

and ironically the Radio is the only thing that BLOWS on this phone. The ONE thing they had to do they screwed up on.
In order to build android you have to have the proprietary binary files for the wimax and cdma radio. the documents above prove that update has been built and they have the "new radio" if they are even going to update it. so i would not blame sprint/samsung for the delay, they did their job. google needs to finish with whatever tweaks they are working on and release the update or at least commit the code so we can compile.

I found this at opensource.samsung.com for the SPH-D720. Not sure if means much and still would be nice if they release come source code that they currently have. Either way no big deal, I enjoy my Nexus S and really dont any issues with it. I would like better radio signal but who wouldn't. You could get a phone much worse off at Verizon, AT&T, or T-MOBILE. So good luck to the people jumping the boat. I expect a influx of people joining up with Sprint before Spring and then it will bog down the network. I hope they have a plan in place to take care of that issue that may happen.

As long as Google pushed the update with a data backup, it shouldn't be an issue, correct? Google would update everything except carrier apps. Carrier could update them like the way Sprint updated Sprint Navigation to Telenav or some other delivery method.

I think that only means that the app is installed into the system app directory, instead of the user app dir.

Guys, in ICS there is a feature in which you can hide the apps.
Also i dont think this really matters. The two apps included are something verizon users may want. Looking at your status with the company and backing up information with the carrier hardly seem like bloat apps to me. Also, this is only the case for verizon and not other carriers like sprint, which can uninstall bloatware apps. I still believe google will be pushing out their own updates.

I'm a little curious why this would discourage anyone here from owning this phone. Are any of you guys buying it with the intention of running stock?
Even if people plan on using cooked roms they still want google to push the updates because that means they would come quicker and therefore the developers would have new versions to create new roms off of.

The Verizon customers that don't want them are almost certainly going to know at least enough to be able to remove them, but many of the users that would want them would also fall into that special category of users that know just the bare minimum to be able to use the phone - average users, the ones even XDA noobs can run circles around. They make up the majority of Verizon's customer base, so the big V will cater to them. (They're also a lot more likely to pay for things that can be had for free, because they're a lot less likely to know that those things can be free... it's a two-fold win for any service provider)

I think this is the logic:
When a phone gets major customization from a carrier such as Sense or Touchwiz, it complicates the updates and delays updates due to additional testing and debugging needed on these customized ROMS. People are assuming that is the reason why US carriers get updates so much later than the much more plain European versions. So, the OP assumes that adding two Verizon apps is somehow as complex a modification as adding Touchwiz, therefor it will delay the release of jellybean, or whatever the next version will be called.
Seems pretty silly to me.

4G LTE Xoom's ICS Update Rolling, problems with unlocked/rooted?

Hey guys,
I see Android Central is reporting the update pushing to the 4G Xoom's is infact ICS. Build looks to be IML77. I was wondering if anyone got it yet. Also if it was recieved were you rooted and unlocked.
I had a problem where my HLK75 build would not flash and i was not sure why. might have been a corrupted download or something.
In any case here is the Android Central Article. let me know if anyone has got it and if you are root.unlocked or not
http://www.androidcentral.com/motor...ing-roll-out-now-and-continue-through-weekend
Despite how that article reads, I don't think the ICS soak test is pushing to the LTE Xooms yet.
I've been hearing some people are...
guess we will just have to wait and see.

Really? From where?
I've only seen those with WIFI only Xooms getting it. And even a link to the WIFI Xoom update has been posted... not 4G/LTE Xoom.
Interesting, will be watching this rather closely. Of course I just rooted and flashed the EOS ICS last night, lol! Oh well, so far I'm enjoying it quite a bit. I'm not as blown away by ICS as some of the others but some things are noticeably better (no more typing lag). Not sure I'd bother with the "official" ICS release since I want root and overclock capability.
I will also be watching rather close for it I'm in between zone and eos

The only thing I want from that company is a finished product. My Xoom works just fine right now so I can wait as long as it takes even if we never get it.

You were invited to the soak or invited to register for it? Far as I know 4g hasn't started yet
