Getting a nexus s 4g

Hello all I have a samsung epic and will be getting a nexus s 4g. I just wantedto introduce my self and say hello to all and hope to learn from all you like I did from a lot of guys on the epic forum. I did have one question tho. Does the nexus play good with Mac? Or is it like the epic to where heimdal won't recognize the phone.? I hope u guys welcome me with open arms and can't wait to hop on this awesome divice. Thanks.

What's up guys! Esteway, you will learn a whole new way to root install recovery etc. Once you get cwm on board just go about flashing as normal. Shabbypenguin made a one click root to make it easier but its almost too easy

I just made the same switch and am happy with the phone. Rooting is a bit trickier at first but fastboot is quite cool and easy to use. Read the rooting instructions carefully.... I scared myself a few times. You won't need odin or heimdall anymore.

YouTube reviewer?

Anyone know of a YouTuber who basically just reviews ROMs/accessories/etc for our device? Kind of like how QBKing77 does it for Sprint Android devices. If not, its cool, just wondering. Thanks.

Best rom for nexus 7

Hi, i would like to know what the consensus of the best rom is for this epic tablet. Usually i would go over a few roms a week and test em all out, but dont have the time Lemme know?

There is no such thing as a "best" ROM. It depends on what your needs are. And ultimately that is going to come down to you trying them out and finding out what works for you.

Seriously, the one it comes with.

i am on ParanoidAndroid and working great so far.

Been using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777586 with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1823671 for a few days now. Thinking about trying out CM10's new "M" build.

I have a hardon for this phone and it won't go away

If it lasts more than four hours you should consider seeing a doctor.

And op is a female. :what:

I assure you that I am not female and that the hardon is very real

Prove it. Pics or it didn't happen.

If you're experience erectile dysfunction while waiting for the Nexus 4, please call 1-800-TRY-FIRST. They'll get it.

Chameleon OS

Jus throwing this out there since i cant get into development myself yet. If some of the talented devs for the OG epic would wanna try to port this to our phones. I mean we got damn near ever other rom that been comin out so why not this one. Here is a link if someone wants to read up on it like i said jus seeing if anyone is interested in trying to port. From what i read its based of CM10.1 so i dont see why we wouldnt be able to use it. http://www.chameleonos.org/index.php

This would not go in development. You posted in the correct place.

Lol I do what I can. I don't have my PC at the moment. Had to send it for repairs. Should be back fairly soon though. When it is, I will throw something your way. I'll need a tester though since I got rid of the epic.

Jake, did you get your pc back from repairs yet? I'm asking because I've been looking for something new and this looks like it could be my first rom lol. If you want it or already started let me know, but if not then I would like to take it.

Building now. Should be done by morning. I can't test, as I ditched my epic, but if someone would be willing to then, that'd be awesome.
