Guys, I saw an original Case Mate Nexus S casing at Low Yat Plaza yesterday and it cost RM80. So I went online and look for a better deal...But I found out the Case Mate's website quoted the followings

"This case is recommended for the Samsung GT-19020 with AMOLED screen; not recommended for GT-19023 (U.S. Version)."

Case Mate's Website - for Nexus S Casing

This makes me wonder, what is the differences? I am thinking of buying the case later..now I am hesitating as mine is an I9023.

S-LCD thicker than Super AMOLED
123.9 x 63 x 11.5 mm > 123.9 x 63 x 10.9 mm

Which means that casing wont fit my Nexus S...will drop the idea of buying it then..Thanks for the information.

its normal if you are on gingerbread , it will auto reflash the stock recovery when u reboot , unless u change kernel or delete install-recovery script.

I am on ICS and I think it's the same...Thanks for the information...I just found the solution on XDA, just like you say...I will need to delete the install-recovery script..before I boot into stock ICS rom for the custom recovery to stick...

Yeah, should be include the stock recovery fix!! and some improvements!

Stock recovery fix? Which mean they are going to fix the broken stock recovery... Btw, I am just curious if I flash the stock ROM will it flash the recovery as well? And is there a way for me to flash back to from any custom recovery to stock recovery?

Technically it' possible but you need take sure cwm isn't changed back to the stock recovery.

hmmm...if its back to stock recovery, then I guess I will need to flash cwm and then flash air kernel...will try and see the outcome... smile.gif

As for myself, I gonna stick with NXS until there is no more dev on this device. My target now to get an Android tablet... still awaiting for more device come out either with ICS or JLB...  whistling.gif

Same here..I am waiting for the rumour of Nexus Tablet to be true. Hopefully Asus is going to do it. I do own a Tab10.1 but it's no where near the thrill of pure Vanilla android.

Btw, I want to keep my NS and wait for another month or two to get a SME GNex set. icon_rolleyes.gif

Updated to 4.0.4. UI seems smoother on stock now..but still not perfect..still looks abit laggy when going back to home screen from app drawer.

The rest seems fine...not sure on batt usage yet. And yupes...recovery is broken after update...will need to re-flash CWM...

I assume you are trying to do the "fastboot flash recovery xxx" command? What error did you get?
*
yes...i am using this command...but it says that the partition on the recovery image is not matching...not sure whats wrong...

btw, i tried another option which is using fastboot boot command..it worked and i managed to get back to CWM...from there i updated a script to keep the recovery image in place...too bad it didnt work..when i boot back to my phone... and tried to get back to recovery its still broken..which means stock recovery image have over written the custom recovery image again... rclxub.gif

What did you do to "update the script"?

Please provide more details next time when you are asking for help, instead of just "doesn't work", "doesn't work"
*
Ok, Thank you so much for helping!

I tried command prompt "fastboot flash xxxx.img" it could flash the recovery image...Then i tried "fastboot boot xxxx.img" yes it booted the recovery.img...but this is only for temporary. So I flashed a script that I downloaded from XDA while i am in the temp recovery. This script is supposed to make your recovery stick. But it didnt solve the problem as well.

This helps? Hopefully.

bro, how is the performance...actually I am more keen on how JB will perform on my Nexus S than on my GNex. I hope that I will give me a more "WOW" factor! Where an older phone like Nexus S can be buttery smooth.
