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

I've been running EL30 all day and just realized how smooth the scroll is and of amazing the multitasking is. Went is it that stock roms do multitasking so much better than custom roms? Everyone should go stock for at least one day to see what I mean. Again.. Just throwing it out there.
I've been running stock EL30 since we got the google link. I'm liking it so far. Just need the keyboard lag fix. I think they did fix the GPS though, it goes fast in google maps and its accurate. And I like the none iOS touchwiz.

They changed a couple of the icons and removed the colored squares from the icons when you are in the app drawer.
The keyboard skips 70% less than EI22 but it is still there.

It really is much better, but it dropped one of the e's in "needed". I hadn't noticed the background thing because I use ADW EX with a theme. It seems fine stock, but I'd love to underclock again so I might just root for that.

Yes, I noticed battery life is great! Also, I think the smoothness is coming from the rom being odexed originally from sprint. We must all remember that the odex codes are optimized for our devices. That's why deodexed roms are never as smooth. Might be slight quicker but awful multitasking. But personaly, ive never seen a performance boost from going deodex.

De-odexing isn't supposed to give ya performance boost, it allows you to theme your phone.
BEER!
Yup, but alot of members here state that the roms under deodex run snappier. In which I disagree.
Just buggin out, me an my eye balls.
Check out the thread in the development section entitled "[tweak][CM7] odex cyanogenmod 7.2 flashable zip" by zman for more info on the subject

I'm relatively sure it fixes the ShiftySonOfA exploit. I can no longer root my device with that method.
So no point installing it? I can live with that.

id just avoid it like the plague, the odds of a developer bothering to work on an exploit if it does close the hole is slim to none nowadays since most of the devs have moved on to better phones by now

I think if anyone would fix the exploit it would just be to test there skills. and say that they did.
Avoid Sprint Official Updates like the plague . Never take an Update form Sprint till your sure what it is. It's one sure fire way to get yourself into ISH.

I didnt do anything to the ota other than cook it up Stock odex. I could deodex it and post that too so its easier for people to get in there and do mods though. Its all what you all want. But a debloated bone stock optimized rom dont sound halfway bad. Even though you guys have ICS and all that good stuff, some users do like Stock optimized ( no tweaks and minor changes ) so.....................

Why do you want to downgrade?

I knew I'd get a sensible answer eventually lol. Was just curious to see if some of the bugs we are facing on 4.2.1 were to dissapear with 4.1.2
I had a funny feeling it would be a lot of work involved. Oh well. Cheers
I've wondered this myself. I know xda is all about having the latest and greatest, but on my gnex 4.1.1/4.1.2 were absolutely perfect. it was super smooth, everything worked and there was no crazy battery drain issues. 4.2 seems rushed, hopefully they'll sort it out in the next update

The most pressing bugs are in the kernel so even if the ROM gets ported they will persist.
You can try flashing an old rom on the new kernel and see what happens.
Someone got Gingerbread with a Jelly Bean kernel running on his Nexus 7.
It's definitely possible, but will probably include some work.

They are all fast and smooth at this point including the stock ROM really.
I am running beans ROM now because I get sick of debloating the stock ROM, but I can't honestly say it's any faster (I tried hyperdrive also)

All stock based and all will be the same. Only difference would be how many apps you have running in the background which would be on you. Any difference people claim is 50% placebo and 50% fan boy.

All roms are quite similar. Although, some of the very debloated ones have some more speed.
Best ROM thread in disguise...not allowed. Speed is relative to towers and network. Smoothness can depend on governor/Scheduler combos in kernels...too many variables affect these items and should not be considered ROM specific
