You got a point there!

Its like my phone is lying about the battery level. It could say full but go dead in a few minutes. I go into recovery and it'll say 86 percent at times it will like it isn't charging at all

I just picked up this up from Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/1550mAh-PD421...s=Anker®+1550mAh+HTC+ThunderBolt,+MyTouch+4G,
They work excellent. People in the reviews were crying about the charger, but personally I think it's great. This past weekend my roomates used it on thier phone while traveling.

It works fine most roms but the problem wit most of the roms they are unstable. This is my 2nd battery. I'm using Joy OS rom

maybe it's that rom. Sabsa Prime v15.0 has been the most stable rom for me

Well, here's a first.

I got my nexus s 4g with the same intention I've had with all my androids..root,flash custom rom,custom kernel, n have perfection on my phone. Well how surprised do u think i was when i got the phone n fell in love with the stock rom. Holy crap is the stock rom basically flawless...lol
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
Same here bro, same here!
Same, I don't see too much to complain about on stock. It's light, responsive and fairly stable. I'll root it eventually of course though. I'm sure there are too many under-the-hood options that I'll be dying without before long
My only complaint seems to be random data drop outs. Is that a known issue or wtf is going on lol

Same thing for me. Have had the phone since a few days after release and no real urge to root or do anything else.

Nexus s 4g is plagued with all sorts of data issues. Its what the alleged ota is suppose to fix. As far as the stock rom, I almost always run stock with a matrix kernel. I like bln amd voodoo color.

I totally agree with you guys, stock is rock solid on this phone. But voodoo sound and color really add to the hardware aspect of the Nexus S.

Yes but OEM unlock wipes your phone. That's why I did it not long after I got my phone even though I kept it stock for a while.

That's if you flash a stock deodex rom for the ns or ns4g just flash that on top and you'll have the toggles in place

Extension 4.. Help!!!

Hey you guys I hate to start a new thread I usually search before I ask but In this case I can't find it..
Anybody know how to install Extension 4, or at least can post a link to a guide with the download included?.. thanks in advance
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Ext4 is a type of file system. If you are wanting to convert to ext4, get 4ext recovery. There is a thread in the Mytouch 4g development forum with links and instructions. Are you using a ROM that supports ext4?
Sent from my HTC myTouch 4G using XDA App
I'm using TDJ MIUI.. I don't know if it supports extension 4 as I can't post in a development thread yet to ask. But yes I want to convert to ext4. If miui is not supported can you tell me of one (or some) that support it

You're welcome. Did you get it worked out? There is a link for the site where you can download the free 4Ext app. Once the app is installed let it update and then download the newest RC (release candidate) of the recovery. Then flash the recovery and reboot into that baby! It has options for converting your filesystem. If you are on MIUI you're probably good already, but it doesn't hurt to check.

Juice defender works by turning off mobile data when the phone is asleep, among other things. It will turn data back on at certain intervals to allow emails, mms, and what-have-you. Juice defender ultimate gives you supreme authority over every detail of the profile. Its a good app, and it works. I used to get annoyed by the few extra seconds of waiting for data when I woke my phone up, but other than that its great. It does make a difference on the battery.

This visually bothers me in 2 threads already.
EXT4 is NOT an abbreviation for "extension 4". EXT4 is "4th extended file system".
Please stop calling it wrong, it's annoying, and it's especially annoying that people reply to you with correct name and you won't get the hint. Thank you.

Firstly, you're more than entitled to your opinion! But there's no need to respond in such a way. To be honest I could care less about what you feel is correct or incorrect because obviously these guys understood what I was asking and helped me along until I got everything right. Its ok to correct to someone but there are ways of going about doing it. So next time respond accordingly and stay in line because a simple correction would've sufficed!

For what phone? If you have a Epic 4G with physical keyboard and like the stock feel try the peoples rom here if you want a little different experience try CM7 or CM9 here and here.

And questions in Q&A, plz

Its actually my wifes phone. Ive tried clean rom and sleeper rom so far. Clean rom seems to freeze up occaisionally and sleeper rom froze up like every 5 min. Ill try your suggestions, thank you. It seems like the development for this phone isnt too up to date. I guess cause it id kind of old now. One question. Ive been doing full wipes, that is ok with this phone right? Ive noticed "no wipe" in some of the rom op.
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
A ROM with "No Wipe" in the OP just means it won't wipe your data when it installs.
It is always a good idea to wipe data, cache, and dalvik when flashing a new ROM.

Sorry to hear this LOL..........anywho The Peoples Rom should get you to where you want to be. MTD is a totally different animal if you ever have to go back to stock make sure to check repartition. MTD is where you want to be it is more stable in my opinion. Like someone else said always do a wipe unless you are updating from the same ROM like the nightlies for CM7. CM7 is butter both mine and my wife's Epics are on it and love it. The only reason neither of us are on CM9 is battery life.
Maybe ill try cm7. Sorry im an htc guy and i love it

Which is the latest, most recent GB sense kernel?

Searching the dev section for Kernels are quite confusing now with all the ICS and JB roms out there.
Does anyone know what the latest and greatest (of it's time) GB sense kernel that I can search for?
Thanks
TDJ had a Sense kernel that was pretty decent. Start there?

Supposedly the codez(?) 3.0.62 and 3.0.64 don't have the overheating issue. Personally, I'm using 3.0.74 evervolv, but I rarely use headphones.
EDIT: Although, I'm still a noob and my kernels might be aosp and not sense... if there's even a difference...

There is a difference. Sense kernels should only be used with Sense ROMs. Everything else gets AOSP.

Some phones get above 75°C. The temperature difference means little. What's important is whether or not it's within operating specs.

the sense one works for android 4.04(jellybean? or ics)

both for the mt4g

I was using TDJ's darkside v7, however I was randomly missing txt's from people, not sure if that's a kernel issue or rom issue.

[Q] Blinking screen

Hi
I don't know something with my myTouch 4G. When the phone is in standby mode (screen off), it starts blinking rapidly and stop (2 or 3 times per second) ramdomly or when i touch the digitizer (alway in stanby mode only).
I noticed it happens when i use an ICS or Jelly Bean roms only. But with the stock or another customs Gingerbread roms, this issue disappears. Everything runs well.
I wonder if it's a general problem with ICS and JB on this phone and if it's possible to fix it?
