nexus s

Hey everybody, First time poster, here. I typed a lot, so I'll put my question up at the top. The incredibly long, maybe even relevant back story follows. Does anyone know if there's an app or even a setting that will help me lock my home screen icons so my phone icons doesn't end up two...

Can anybody tell me how to root my nexus s

I have a Nexus S on Android 4.04. This version of Android has a SMS messaging delete bug. The bug happens when you try to delete a message other than the first message in the "thread". Android 4.04 will delete the first message instead of the message that you want to delete. For example...

Yesterday I received an Unlocked T-Mobile Nexus S in the mail after ordering it from eBay. I'm currently using it under AT&T. It worked great until I went to root it and install CyanogenMod.

Ok, let me start off by saying that i know very little about phones/tech-y stuff etc. and i'm terrible at troubleshooting, but the phone is dead. Basically it had been lagging and applications had been failing for the past month or so and battery life was pretty terrible (would last half a...
