08 Aug Gr15 GRJ22: MoDaCo Custom ROM for the Samsung Nexus S with Online Kitchen

[Guest Paul]

Note that to flash this ROM you MUST be using 3.0.0.0 or above of ClockworkMod recovery. You can flash this via ROM Manager, or using 'fastboot flash recovery' by downloading the image from here.

[Guest RickyG3188]

Ah, possibly...

Think the original rooting guides linked to an older 2.3.something version?

*flashes latest* Ah yes, very different!

Ok, let's try again...

Right, yes, it's taking a lot longer to flash now!

*reboots*

Yup! Look's good.

So - anyone else - make sure you update your Recovery to 3.0.0.0. I did mine via ROM Manager (since the phone was already root'd) so took 10 secs. Nice and easy.

Thanks bro, that's exactly what was happening to me. Problem fixed now

Hrm when I try to download from my phone the file size is like 650kb. Am I doing something wrong because I know that's not right on my end.

Edit: maybe that is what people are flashing?

Same was happening to me so I just downloaded it off my computer and transferred it via usb

Is anybody else having flashing error's with 3.0.0.0? When I try and update from r1 I get an aborted message.. :)

I downloaded from the site via the device since I can't download and transfer via my work computer. Extra ;)

Confirmed.

I also updated my recovery to Clockwork 3.0.0.0 and r2 has installed fine and booted properly. The problem seems to be with Clockwork Recovery 2.5.1.8.

Thanks guys!

[Guest jdmsirek4]

thanks Paul and keep up the great work!!!!!!!

[Guest GodDriven]

Still getting " (bad) Installation Aborted " when trying to install :-( With CW 3.0.0.0

I also see it shows 698 bytes when I download, is it suppose to be this small? Or could it be that I am downloading from the Nexus?

I'm sorry I'm searching the thread and don't see anyone else having thsi same issue.. Guess I will try this when I get to an "Official CPU"

The file I downloaded was 93.1MB. You may want to try and download it from a computer instead

Thank You.. Thank You... :D

I figured it was something like that.. It has always happened.. Ever since the N1 ;) Paul must be ashamed of me.. smh.. :)

[Guest MistaJae]

This ROM is fast & smooth. Not come across any issues yet. Everything seems to work just fine!

Thanks Paul, you are a legend!

After the update with the EXT addition :D Data seems to be more consistent and faster. Applications open faster and caching time is highly reduced. ;)

Thanks P :)

[Guest IntoTheVoid]

Flashed and up and running nice and smooth. Thanks Paul! and thanks incorporating the EXT mod.

[Guest Jack H]

Can anyone tell me what the benchmark app is that Paul has shown a screenshot of?

Loving the speed of my nexus s. Shame it's so large though. Can't wait to try this Rom.

There is an issue with the build fingerprint on GRH78 (in stock, and therefore my mod too). I'm going to put a kitchen up today so i'll add a 'use GRH55 fingerprint' option. :(

Yea I just saw the post on xda. And thank you. Hopefully Google will get that fixed soon. Until then thx for the rom!!!

[Guest Paul]

Kitchen is online, complete with GRH55 fingerprint option. This will NOT nag you about an update being available. :(

I'll tidy up the first post and provide additional prebakes after Christmas. ;)

[Guest Dope M.S.R.]

Do we have to wipe if reflashing the newly baked rom over a r2?

[Guest Paul]

No, wipe ONLY if you're coming from a non MCR ROM.

[Guest Dope M.S.R.]

AWESOME!!! Thanks a lot Paul!!! Keep them coming!!!

Thanks for your hard work, Paul.

Just installed via the kitchen and ticked the GRH55 option but still got the update nag immediately.

[Guest KenAnthony]

Had the same thing happen... all i did was accept the install when it re booted and starting the process i pulled the battery and stopped it... put battery back in booted back up like normal and have been running for about 4-5 hours and havent had it pop up yet... and everything is just like when i flashed using the rom in the kitchen!!

[Guest beetlejelly]

Paul, this is great thanks!

Has anyone noticed that the google maps app has become unstable? The first issue I noticed was that when I went from portrait to lanscape, the top bar disappeared and/or turned black. The next issue, is that the little blue arrow (compass) seems to be swirling back and forth.

Yeah, I ended up doing the same thing. All fine so far.
