I'm on the same phone (if you mean GT-9100) and ROM, but I don't use GoSMS....
I'm guessing, though, that this was a feature of CM7 that has been removed, since you can now just pull down the notifications drawer on the (slide) unlock screen.

I just use the Stock Messenger app on AOKP (I realize it's not CM9, but it's similar enough to AOSP compared to a ROM built off of Samsung) for my Galaxy S2, but I quickly downloaded and tested GoSMS and Handcent, and GoSMS didn't pop up on the lockscreen but Handcent did. Not sure why one works and the other doesn't. Hope that helps.

Mods closed the thread though. You need stock 4.0.4, might lose recovery when you flash and so on.

CM9 RC2 is out!!! Cyanogen says final should be 'soon' (no ETA!), then on to JB!
that's one thing i <3 about GAF
new threads for new news!
that XDA thread got closed because there was already a Jellybean 'countdown' megathread and they didn't even change the thread title to mention JB was out in the megathread!
oh, i'm all for buying stuff you like, i just dunno if i would buy something when the performance isn't up to snuff.

Cool, thanks, guess I say goodbye to my GN tomorrow. Goodbye mobile supercomputer, hello mobile computer.
My friend got a Nexus S.... how could you go to that thing? I could never leave my GN unless it's for something better.
I've always liked how the nexus s feels in my hand. Plus now that JR finally shipped my nexus 7 I won't be using my phone as much at home.
Let us know how it performs with JB!

Ewwww... going backwards in terms of that screen resolution and internal hardware capabilities though just seems... ewwww
I didn't say I was getting a Windows Phone!
kinggroin: I'm super excite to see how it performs, using ICS after using JB makes me feels like Tobor using an android phone.

Actually technically you did in a way!
Haha.
Although, I think I might pickup the 710 from T-Mo soon if I can get it for free.
It's starting to rain cats and dogs on smartphone gaf.
Yea, there's pre-paid thread on here somewhere. I'll edit my post if I find it, but there is one here.

I would totally trade you my Nexus S for your GNexYou'll have two Nexus S's!
Hah, I might actually end up with original Nexus one soon. Have you tried unloading it on craiglists for like $200 bucks and then paying the difference? Although at this point you might as well wait for the next Nexus at the end of the year. Nexus Padfone #believe.

I just don't get why you'd want to go back to a single core 1ghz phone with a 800 x 480 screen when you already own an alternative. Those are WP7 launch specs btw in an Android device.
Exynos blows the pants off snapdragon, but it's mostly cause my phone is going to be relegated to a phone now. N7 ftw. That's really the main reason for it. I don't need a super duper phone if I have a 7in tablet around.
Nah, it's a feature of the program I believe.
Thanks alot for checking. I guess I can check out Handcent...I've gotten so used to GO though.

Man Jelly Bean on Nexus S is a mixed bag. Scrolling etc. seem to be much smoother but app startup and lag in Google Now is really obvious at this point. Works great on the 7, though, and I can live with a LITTLE slowness.
A single core phone can run android pretty damn well if i do say so myself. Just because there are quad-core phones that are complete overkill doesn't mean older phones are incapable of delivering a complete android experience. My infuse holds its own very well on ICS (and JB), even when compared directly with my Nexus 7.
I think we can expect onscreen buttons from official Nexus devices going forward, but the manufacturers having the freedom to choose what to do with their hardware is a really big part of the OS. I think it would be a horrifying idea for them to enforce a rule like that.
Not to mention theres looooots of people who really like the capacitive buttons.

I wouldn't expect them to do anything though, there's some obvious bugs hanging around that they haven't focused on.
Ooooooooookay... can anyone tell me why phone GNex is suddenly playing a little tone when I lay it down on its back? Where the hell did this come from.
Edit: What in the holy fuck.... Okay I figured out what it was. I was sitting my phone down on top of my wallet and it would make this weird sound. I figured out its one of my Mastercards, the paypass one. Whenever I hold it up to the back of my phone that little tone goes off. The fucking hell?
Edit2: Crisis Averted, apparently the tone it makes is just the phone saying "I detect an NFC chip nearby but I cannot recall any data from it". That particular MC has a Paypass NFC in it. That had me worried my phone was busted for a moment.

Happened to me but I kinda figured it out immediately. But I'm a Google Wallet user so its NFC capabilities aren't usually far from my mind.

My guess: timing will be very slow. Probably enough for me to have upgraded to an AOSP ROM long before HTC get themselves sorted.

I'd be happy with a Oct timeframe.

True, but he already owns a newer device that he uses everyday.

So consider me parking myself in line... 1st in the waiting line for One updates!
Why do I have a feeling the international versions of the One X will get their update and AT&T will still be silent on the issue and then talk about like 3 months later. Then it'll be another 6 months after that till it rolls out.
PS: I wonder how Google Now will be incorporated into whatever version of Sense comes in the Jelly update.

Yeah, I thought this was common knowledge. At least it was one of the first few things I noticed when I got the phone. Specially since I lay the phone on top of my wallet all the time.
My guess is that it will arrive after HTC has put out 1-2 new phones with JB out of the box. It seems to be standard operating procedure for most manufacturers nowadays.

To give you some hope. The HTC Vivid on AT&T was one of the first phones (other then the nexii) to get ICS way back in March.

I do both all the time, and I haven't had an issue. To be fair I don't run like 5 things at once though. It's usually just music + chrome/facebook/twitter.
Okay it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to seem. As long as I can competently run 2 programs at once I'm fine.
Also, is 6gb a month overkill when it comes to Android or could I survive off of 1gb or 5gb?
Good news. Hope is not Pentile.
It amazes me how far the community goes with the older phones.
I'm tempted to go back to my N1 now, haha.

as long as the app has an ongoing notification thing, it won't be killed.
there is speculation, but the stock mail app supports it, so i dont know why gmail would be special

i've been using CM9 since it was beta status, it's been solid on the Epic 4G.
Could be that the email client is open-sourced and Gmail is Google owned.
