I have just recently found out and realize that below is happening to me.
"Notification bar icons (Wi-Fi, network coverage bars, etc.): Turn green when you have an uninhibited connection to Google, white when you don't. Hint: if you're in a hotel or airport using Wi-Fi, the bars won't turn green until you launch the browser and get past the captive portal."
quoted from http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/some-cool-android-tips-and-tricks.html
when the phone is put to sleep, it often turn white. meaning it got disconnected from google services.
this also resulted to not receiving any push notification (especially on gmail).
when i turn it on again, it will then try to connect to google services and after a while, you will see that the signal bar turn green again.
then only suddenly you receive all the missed notification (this includes gtalk).
anyone has experience similar issue?
(note, i am testing this on mobile data only). going to try it on wifi later.
you seriously have to search the forum, cause this has been covered in a million page thread already in a few different places

hi, do you mean that this is a known issue?
but this doesn't seems to happen to my N1 which is on stock 2.2.1
and guide/direction on where the original discussion is much appreciated.

It's a known issue for the nexus s with a huge thread discussing it.
Unless I'm confusing the issue? Can anyone tell me if I'm thinking of something else?

Anyone knows how to turn off the email notification sound while on the phone on Nexus S. It's extremly annoying and and the other person can hear it as clear as I can? This is the most basic thing and I never had this problem in last 15 years. Thanks...
goto menu->settings then scroll to notification settings
select ringtone->silent
done
All that'll do is switch notification sound to silent at all times. I just want notifications switched to silent when on the phone not at all times.
Thanks for your answer though
Never heard of this issue and sounds very dumb if an alert plays during a phone call. I can't believe it would.

Well, they do! LOL. I noticed it last night while in a call.
Edit: test it yourself. Give yourself a call from another phone, then send yourself an email.

This absolutely should be user configurable within the OS, but it doesn't appear to be.
There's an app called Tasker with a free 7-day trial version that would allow you to setup a work-around.
Tell Tasker that when you're in a call, to turn off notification sounds, and to turn them back on when you end the call.
I'm just now testing the app myself, and it's amazingly powerful in its potential.
edit: On an admin note to the mods...this thread is an example of why even some of we seasoned forum members get confused over where a thread should go. It's clearly a question, seeking a specific answer to solve a problem, and it hasn't been moved to the Q&A section, yet posts that are more general in nature intended to spark discussion are moved to Q&A just because they have a "?" mark in the title or first sentence...
but this is clearly a nexus s specific issue, correct? i'm just trying to think, no other android phone does this that i can tell. certainly my nexus one does not, and i have 4 active simultaneous emails accounts going all day for the last year, exchange account and all. but isnt this something the OS would handle and be common across all devices?
unless its a gingerbread thing...

It appears to be a gingerbread thing.
I just tested it on my SGS with Doc's ROM. No sound heard by either myself or the other party on both email and SMS receipts.
Bug #103 in Gingerbread...?
Is there a website where one can submit bugs like this one so that it can be addressed in the next update? Sounds like an easy fix

Yes, you can go here, but honestly, don't expect quick results. The Google Help forums seem to get more attention, or at least feedback, from real live Google employees.
Thanks distortedloop! I just went to the website and it looks like someone already submitted the bug. Hope it gets fixed soon. Thanks again.

"Star" the issue on there to show you have the problem too, if you haven't.

Same thing happens on my Captivate since I've been playing with Froyo Roms. It's kind of annoying since I use loud, high pitched ringtones because I work on loud environment.
Hey,
i know this has been discussed in many threads..just want to have some answers.
i bought my Nexus S a few months ago, it's the I9020 not I9023, from UK.
i really love the phone itself, it's just awesome. had a htc hero before.
but i hate those random reboots, happens to me ~1 time per day. the screen wents really dark and a never ending bootloop happens. have to pull out battery to get it back to work, most times i don't even notice this and the phone is dead after a while of bootlooping... no fix yet right? anyway i "can" live with this but hope to get a fix soon...
GPS and Compass were unuseable since i have it. even my hero has a faster and especially safer GPS-Fix, GPS on Nexus S just loose fix every few seconds and compass does not jump around 50-100°. THIS really sucks! I have already searched around on google and XDA and wherever if this is a hardware or software issue and if there is a possible fix for it but i haven't found a real answer yet and this is what i want to know now.
is this hardware or software related?
is there a fix possible?
like i said, love the phone itself but these issues would make me resell it...
hope i'll get some answers and don't be rude, my english issn't the best.
Best regards and happy easter
Flo
edit: im using latest CM7 with latest Netarchy-Kernel with no additions.
The boot loop/reboot problem is definitely a CM7 issue. None of the other ROMS have this problem.

You could still have bumped an older thread, though. Like mine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035005.
I think if all the people with GPS problems could get together in one thread (needn't be mine, of course, there's lots), this issue would get more exposure and eventually be fixed.

No idea, but since the Nexus One and the Galaxy S with 2.3.3 have similar issues, I'm still hoping it's software. There is no known fix at this time.

i guess you are right, and im doing my share here. i have at least 2, 3 random reboots everyday, even if its a clean install, everything wiped. there's something buggy in every cm7 based rom
I guess its the radio problem, for the gps,

Hi
I love my Sensation, but I do have one small problem. Whenever I use it I seem to catch the camera with my thumb and have to turn off the camera before I use the phone. I realise I could just move the camera button, but then I would just get the same issue with another app.
Has no-one else had this? It happens both with stock ROM and ARHD (currently using 6.6.5)
Not to be rude, but it doesn't sound like a "phone" issue...
To answer your question, no I do not have that problem.
Well, I beg to differ, but it is a phone issue, as that portion of the screen appears to be over-sensitive. I thought other people may have had the same problem and the fact that they haven't would seem to indicate that it could be a fault with my phone, which is what I was trying to establish.

Interesting choice of words there.
Overly sensitive?? You happen to touch the icon for the camera app, it opens, and you're surprised?
My goal here is to help, but...
Sorry, I'm speechless.

Really? Your goal appears to be condescension. I am not an idiot, I have owned other smartphones, even other HTCs, but even my palm on the side of the screen opens the camera. I am not even directly touching the icon.
Please don't bother replying to this, as it is not helpful, but IS very annoying.
Have you tried just kind of training yourself not to touch it? I believe that is the first and potentially last step to solving this problem.
Took phone back to shop, they agreed that the screen was faulty and it has now been fixed so that the problem no longer occurs.
Still, thanks for your help folks

Anyway, I have so far used hydro 4 and cm10- both ran nicely and initially connected to home wifi. However, I took it on holiday for 2 days (and meanwhile was connecting to other networks) and when I returned I could only detect wifi from other houses, not my own. This has happened twice, as soon as I go anywhere different, and then come back and try and connect, I cannot detect my homewifi.
A reflash will sort it, but the problem will come back if i use other wifis, then return home.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks

Did you go back to stock and test? I would assume it isn't a hardware issue since you can connect to others, so I would then troubleshoot your home wifi, and see why it isn't connecting to it. And the reason you are taking a beating over this, is it has nothing to do with development, so don't post ****ing stupid questions in this forum.

LOL I like the fact that its also **URGENT**. hahaha.
That's why we have the General and Q&A section, for this type of questions. Please, lets keep the development section for the developers who contribute(I am so thankful).
Let's try to keep this clean and organized.
Just forget all networks then reboot and you should be able to connect again.......
Throw your router in your trashcan and buy another one..
or ask your ISP, I think this has nothing, seriously NOTHING to do with bad fw or anything else on the device itself.
(and to be honest, I don't like the "Yo" at the start of the thead, find it out by yourself you irrespectful ***hole..)
There are few rules I'm a fan of, but come on people, simple organization.

Hi all
Just got my 2nd nexus 5, first one went back for touch screen issues. Got 2nd one and this has problem too.
If someone sends me a text the pulse notification light pulses once and that's it. No repeat. However after that if someone sends me a text it works as it should, ie repeats every 10 seconds.
Seems very random as to when it works properly. Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks all
Chris

Yes, people have this problem on stock rom.. It appears randomly though and not as often as you're getting. A restart fixes it... Are you using Light Flow or any app to control the LED??
No will light flow solve this?

Trying it now seems to work ok. Strange that my last nexus didn't suffer this problem. Wounder if Google are aware of this issue?
Also on a side note not sure if it's related but I'm sure my first nexus 5 did a software update when I first took it out of the box, my new one did not do that.

Yes, I think they are aware of it... I remember reading it somewhere around XDA about it.. Can't find a link to it though.. I guess we will just have to wait for the update and see... FYI, a reboot fixes the issue temporarily..
It didn't update because the ones which were manufactured in January came with 4.4.2 Out of the box which is the latest update!

Thanks for your reply mate, for me when I reboot the first message does not work, then they seem ok after that, that's just for sms, I get no notifications at all with whatsapp etc, however light flow seems to work ok at moment but would be nice if Google did a fix.
