Wow, this is incredible, I can’t believe that Firefox OS has already available for Samsung Nexus S. Firefox OS is a new mobile Linux OS for smartphone. Since both Android and Firefox OS are using Linux base, so ,running Firefox OS on any android devices are very possible. This “running” Firefox OS on Samsung Nexus S is unofficial version and there is still a lot of broken and not working features with the coding. However, some basic functions like calling and call receiving is working seamlessly so far, 3G and WiFi connectivity also not a problem for now. Does Firefox will finally give a beat on iOS and Android?? No one knows for now but if you wish to have a quick try, probably you can have a quick try on Nexus S as the ROM is available for download now.

Again a post with Cyanogen Mod 10 (CM10). Now turn to Samsung Galaxy Nexus S. Nexus S is one of the earliest smartphone to own Android 4.1 Jelly Bean CM10. Comparing to CM10 on Samsung Galaxy S3,  Nexus S CM10 is even more robust with the latest build 4 release. This is unofficial CM10 ROM on Nexus S but should have brings about all Jelly Bean Android 4.1 features like smoother interface, better keyboard, enhanced notification bar and a lot more. From the forum, there was no known issue list but you are free to feedback to the developer if you found any bugs.

Firstly, before introducing the ROM, say thanks to Steven676 & Daxmax, senior developers from Xda who ported the Jelly bean 4.1 ROM successfully to Samsung Nexus S.

In the early morning of today, I have just flashed and tried the very first AOKP ROM. It isn’t fast because it was not customized and fully tweaked, it was a stock ROM and kernel for the phone. However, with AOKP ROM, you can have many other features being enabled in your devices. Tablet UI is one of the coolest feature/  I have tested tablet UI mode in my nexus S with AOKP Milestone 5. I would say the UI is extremely attractive and beautiful. This is unique to run tablet UI in a phone. You can also easily switch the tablet UI mode back to phone UI mode by having a simple tweaking. This flashable zip file works for all devices with AOKP devices.

I have been using Brainmaster Nexus S ICS ROM for few months. It is time to change to a faster ROM. I did not do any OC (overclocking) on my nexus s yet and this is the first I look for ROM and kernel which can do overclocking. Safe overclocking can increase your smartphone in overall and handle your daily application smoother. I have chosen AirKernel by a Korea developer where he mentioned this kernel is stable and fast enough. I fully agree with that because I did not encounter random reboot after flashing the ROM. This ROM is based on CM9 (CyanogenMod 9) which is well known fast ,and with latest ICS version Android 4.0.4. Let’s check out the details.

Lately, i found some of the android app were NOT able to install in my Nexus S. I downloaded some android apks [install files] and fail to install it, no response from the screen when i press install. This make me feel like these all apps were NOT recognise my phone or NOT working properly in ICS or could be compatibility issue. Anyway, i found a way how to force install the un-installable apks files. It is easy enough but you need to download some apps for your pc and mobile. Follow me after the break.
