As I understand it, there's a new BL unlock for the Moto X, not sure if/when it will be released, but until then I guess your only option is to experiment with TowelPieRoot. A couple root apps work, but in my experience nothing can get r/w access to the /system partition.

Is your bootloader unlocked then? Why not just flash supersu?

xt1049 and TowelPieRoot Hey guys, Anyone try the method here?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/root-towelpieroot-motorola-devices-t2825059 Seems to have rooted successfully, but I can't remount /system as r/w, so xposed and most other useful root tools are fairly useless...

If we removed the baseband check from a Sprint ROMs install script, do you think installing in CWM would work? Sent from my XT1049 using Tapatalk

Source built is generally better, but the source tree for CM and AOSP is way out of date for the Nexus S 4G, and hardly anyone is working on optimizations on this side. cn.fyodor on the crespo forum has a pretty optimized build for the Nexus S, if I could figure out how to link to all of our...

I tried the working CM11 build, but for me it seemed really really slow. They've done a bunch of kernel and OS optimizations on the Nexus S forum, so I might try using a file diff tool to compare builds and port a more optimized rom. I simply haven't been at my desktop enough in the past few...

I agree. And the other CM build seems really sluggish. If someone could give me a hand with getting data working on this build I think we'd be golden.

Figured I'd contribute SOMETHING to this seeing as my builds are just not working out lately. Here's a patch to enable status bar gradient in your Build 8, adityaxavier. Let me know if I can do anything else! Thanks so much for the build!

You should get your device tree up on GitHub so other people can cherry pick or fork and make optimizations/improvements :) I really hope we can get Jenkins nightlies support again. We haven't had it since 10.1. Thanks for your work!! I'll keep working on my builds (broken as they are) only...

Don't know if people want it, but its a mod of the default Nexus 5 wallpaper with the Nexus S logo. Thought it made more sense for our device than the "5" silhouette.

If this ends up being fully functional and passing the CTS, you should try to make this official. Now with CM going more mainstream (hopefully) it'd be a shame to see Nexus S 4G owners missing out on KitKat and later versions because no one is supporting a device that is perfectly capable. I'd...

Yay!!! How'd you get it to work?

I know... I really only put it up in case someone could find a way to logcat, seeing as I can't really debug something with no build errors. Official nightlies are out for crespo, so I might actually try to do a port of that to crespo4g using my broken ROM as a base. I'm not home at the moment...

I'm on 64 bit. Only way to go really, these days. If you need any help building I'm here! I can't really use my computer when I'm compiling, and I need it for work, so I'm building nightlies, which means I can't really get to issues very quickly. And since I can't even logcat with these builds...

Just built with Oracle's JDK6. Same issues. Gonna try to build for mako and see if its a problem with my source tree. I wish I wasn't the only person working on this...

I don't have a network, Sprint or otherwise, so its really hard for me to actually build something here that works. I simply have no way of testing it. That said, I'm in the process of building CyanogenMod 11 from source, and after its finished and working fully, I'll rebase this port off that...

You have my Github repo? I've merged all the necessary changes for the crespo4g in my device tree here: https://github.com/jc4gavejc/android_device_samsung_crespo4g/tree/cm-11.0 I'm almost done with another build, I actually had openjdk7 installed before, so switched to oraclejdk6 (the one I...

Nothing except gapps. I'd be impressed if you could get very far with this build though. I made some changes to my source tree, I'll get a new build up tomorrow morning.

First build up. It's very broken. beware.

I've spent too much time on this. All future efforts will be focused on getting CM11 running, seeing as I can actually deal with source code and I don't have to muck around with something that might never work, especially seeing as I can't test it. If you have Sprint service, consider working on...

I can look into making it happen on the DNA. I just don't have a device to test. EDIT: There's a million 4.4 roms for DNA, were you just looking for something AOSP?

99% sure I fixed it this time. Missed the APN list in meld. So it was pulling from a ton of GSM apns and not Sprint. New build uploading.

Did you flash the patch I just uploaded?

Build.prop patch for possibly working CDMA! just flash over whatever you got, and tell me if its working.

Here's what my phone info menu looks like on stock 4.1.1: Hopefully you guys will see how its really hard for me to differentiate between the two builds and determine if data is in fact working.

Could you post a screenshot of your phone information menu? Dial *#*#4636#*#* and tap "Phone information" I'm gonna try and get your fix built into the ROM.

Can you link to the play store app? I'm having a hard time following what you did. If its just an activity that needs to be started I can definitely get that built in. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

Gravity box doesn't replicate the status bar gradient you get in kitkat. Its actually intentionally disabled in low end devices citing performance issues. I enabled it in my port following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2510410 Performance doesn't seem to suffer at...

Anyone else want to take a shot at this? Proprietary binaries from Google are here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#crespo4gjzo54k They're all in the ROM but maybe I'm not linking to them properly. If anyone has any ideas just crack it open and mess around. I'd suggest...

https://www.mediafire.com/?1nadrtnfzztktc8 Try it out and let me know! Wish I had a network so I could test this myself, and make more incremental changes.

Any APNs I can connect to in order to test if data is/isn't working on a ROM I ported? I don't have Sprint service but I'm trying to develop for the Nexus S 4G and I need a dummy network. Doesn't have to actually be connected to the Internet, just need to test radio functionality. Any tips?

I think I fixed CDMA, any testers around? I'll upload the most recent build now.

Try chrome. There was an issue with webview display on the original nexus s ROM and I imagine that's what you're seeing. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

There's really no such thing as stock when it comes to devices outside of Google's support line. Technically if you want stock its a 4.1.1 factory image from Google. AOSP is close to stock but doesn't include any proprietary Google apps by default. You can remove/add any packages you want via...

Huh. I'll make some more tweaks, hopefully we'll get this solved soon. EDIT: Can someone test SMS too?

Phone calls?

Can you make phone calls? I don't know how I'm going to go about troubleshooting this without service... EDIT: try flashing the LF2 radio from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1077168&highlight=radio and tell me if that works. If it doesn't, maybe try a different radio?

Try *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer -> Phone information Set preferred network type: WCDMA preferred then take a screenshot and post it. Also make sure you're running the latest build and you're in a Sprint coverage area.

The download link in the OP is up to date, yes. Thank you so much for testing! Give me as much feedback as you can!

I ported this to our ill-favored Nexus S 4G, and I gotta say, you built a solid ROM. Thanks so much!

I think I fixed the radios. Any testers? I don't have service...

It doesn't seem to affect performance, so I figured why not?

I'll post a status bar fix, it was super easy (took me 5 min to do) also I might have fixed the radios as well. hang tight. Good to hear everything's working. It's largely not my work, so be sure to thank cn.fyodor on his thread for the crespo!! Still working on building CM in my spare time...

I used CWM 6. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

Nexus S 4G AOSP KRT16S Port from cn.fyodor I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE. Generally these things are pretty easily reversible, and I have tested this ROM on a basic level, but still. Be smart folks. The thread for the Nexus S ROM can be found here...

I'll post it here when I get a working build, right now I'm trying to merge some of cn.fyodor's optimizations from the original Nexus S build. It might end up being pure AOSP as opposed to CM, depends on what I can get to build without errors or other post-build problems. I don't have a ton of...

I don't know if I'd count on 4.4 being a lifeline to speed. 4.2 runs significantly better than 4.4 on my Nexus One. That said, I'd limit concurrent processes in your developer settings menu regardless. I think there's problems with yesterdays CM tree, the ROM I built had so many FCs it was...

I think having the blobs from 4.1 did it. Everything is zipped and ready to flash. I'm gonna test it (have to reflash CWM since I went back to stock) and if it works I'll upload it for people to test.

Kinda redundant since adityaxavier just put his build up, but here's what I built last night. I can't test it since I'm still not home (I built over SSH), but I think I fixed some if not all of the problems it was having. If I end up getting working builds as good as adityaxavier's, maybe I'll...

I just finished building CM11 for mako, and tried to cherry pick Voice+ from the 10.2 sources. It's giving me a "Permission unavailable: android.permission.INTERCEPT_SMS" error. I found that permission on gerrit (and subsequently github), but it's tied to the phone apk, which was overhauled in...
