Well fuck...

Just got this phone. Everything is so overwhelming. Anyone have any links where I can learn how to do all this customization stuff, or at least have any tips/tricks I more than likely don't know about.

this thread....
and XDA

My Nexus S has locked up twice in the past week, and today the screen wouldn't turn on. Had to pop the battery out each time to reboot the phone.

Has anyone else had this happen? I'm running Launcher Pro ontop of standard Android.

nope never had this problem
but ppl have reported this issue on franco nov17th kernel

Im planning to get this phone but ive had bad experiences with android batteries since they dont last more than one day.
Does anyone know how long the battery lasts?
(this includes using internet and apps)

It's completely dependant on your usage. Every android phone i've used has lasted me a day.

Battery life sucks balls. Im not even a "power user" and this thing just barely gets me through a day..

once you root it, you should get 15hrs+ easy as a power user

My GF's iPhone 4S won't last a day, while I can get through 36 hrs with light usage.

My phone is already rooted. Maybe I should dig into this a bit more...

Here's an example of my phone at it's longest uptime. It's an SGS2 but it'll give you an idea. I average around 20hours usually.

^What did you do to extend your battery so drastically? Flight mode? :p

looks pretty normal for a power user
I average around the 26-27hr range
You guys have deep idle/sleep abilities on SGS2 kernels too right?

Yeah, my phone spends the majority of its time in deep sleep lol
But then again I very rarely go past 25% battery

LOL. No. See my phone signal bar? It's completely yellow.

The secret is the screen on time lol.

i bet if i wasnt texting/tweeting so much i can pump longer
HAHA

when will the official ICS release coming to Nex-S?

This is true, on the days when I dont use my phone as much at work, I'm only down to about 75-80% at the end of the day

omg first day on the highly spoken about franco kernel and i get this

i blame darthchilli for overclocking my phone cuz after i turned it back to normal it was fine again

After the Galaxy Nexus, I believe Nexus S will the the first to get ICS.

excuse me, i'm trying to make my display brighter but everytime i do it automatically takes it off auto-brightness

is it possible to have it adjust to light while also being brighter overall?

Just got my nexus s off a another member on rs a few days ago and im loving it.

Just a few things though,
Did some searching but did anyone else ever have trouble with the pc detecting the phone? Im on build 2.3.6

Update:
Fixed!!
Needed a new usb-micro usb connector.
Phone is now rooted and flashed to CM7..Woot!

u just suck
