This is probably the most silly question ever, but... are gapps included in the cm10 zip? (from official cm site)
I feel so stupid that i ask it, but i cant find any answer on that... i am a noob...
I also have 2 more questions.
1) Should I flash the nightly or the stable build?
2) Which way is safer: with rom manager or manually with cwm recovery?

These answers can be found pretty easily.
Gapps not included.

1) Depends. Do you want to flash and never really bother again? Stable. Want the latest features all the time? Nightly. Later has more chance of having bugs.
2) Both way work just fine. Recommend doing it manually via CWM though.

Thank you so much!!!
So, all I need to do is to flash the gapps after flashing cm10? Seems easy... But... Can i flash 4.2 gapps on cm10 stable rom?
And finally, if something goes wrong and my phone doesn't boot, will it work again after restoring my previous Stock rom?

Yes, that's all you need to do.
I wouldn't recommend flashing 4.2 gapps over CM10 stable.
Yes it will work again if you restore your nandroid backup. The Nexus S is next to impossible to brick. If you have any issue just ask here before going further and people can help you.

Yesterday I flashed CM10 stable, the ROM is fantastic but I noticed that the auto rotate doesn't work. Is it a known bug of the ROM or did I miss something?

Did you check if auto rotate is enabled under settings >display?
I am running CM10 STABLE having no issues with auto rotate.

I have a stock xoom wifi us version. It say their is a update available for my system. I go to update it and it go thru the process and then restart. But when it restart it is still on 3.2 and it keep pooping up saying that their is a update available. What is going on is their something I need to do different. Should I just root it and but custom rom on it ?

However, to answer your question, you should just install a custom ROM. They are nicer.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
install a custom rom.
Have you ever rooted it, or flashed any custom roms? I think that can interfere with OTA updates.
Either way, all you have to do is install a custom rom. I recommend the EOS ICS 1.0.0 rom. Check it out here.
Nightlies are better and have more features.

No! Nightlies are different
Only use nightlies if you know what it is. I wouldn't recommend it to someone who has difficulties updating his stock rom...
Getting the update message on EOS 1.0.0 now. I will agree this ROM is much better than stock
Ok so I've had it with my phone lagging, I'm running aosp 4.1 JR00L. Is 4.2 any better?
I've been only hearing good things about rasbean and trinity kernal, so can somebody please link me to it because I can't find it in the developer section.
If I don't like rasbean then can I just download cm from their website and flash cm7/cm9 (I don't have to flash any other stuff like gaps, or a new kernal do I?)
I appreciate the help.
here is the link of rasbeanjelly
http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=rasbeanjelly&device=crespo
if you flash cm7 or cm9 you'll have to flash gapps.
How do you flash your roms? And what kernel do you use? Try running bedalus kernel as it has bigmem. This can reduce lag as well.
And you'll definitely like rasbeanjelly with trinity kernel.
Rom: see above link
Trinity Kernel: www.derkernel.com
Bedalus kernel: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0AntDDKv-lS6IdEt6NWVkX01vNmpfbEh4MHo4eDRCbXc (choose 6.2 for any rom)

@noloukos thanks for the link but I decided to go slim instead
@kwibis I flash my roms according to this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522827) and normally use the kernal included w/ the rom \
@chappy824 I've tried matr1x numerous times, but things get choppy, my phone seams to not like it.
Anyway, I gave aosp strawberry a run and it was ok but now I have slim a run and it has been very very smooth, I mean 0 lag.
:good:Thanks for the help, but I think slim is the rom for me

Hi,
I'm a slim user also....
make a backup ASAP before u clog it with all ur apps.
And when lag happen(eventually it will), try different kernels since every phone is moody on what kernel it accepts.
Good luck

Download the update from the website and flash it over the top. The OTA setup is not fully functioning.

try apps like goomanager,rom toolbox pro or rom manager they check automatically for updates for your installed rom and all the compatible roms for your device

So does the incorporated one. It is just totally functional yet. It will not just reboot and install. You have to download the update and flash like usual.

Do you just flash over your current set up or do you wipe, then do the whole process again?

You can just flash over top if you are running 2.7 or higher.

Anytime!
I've recently installed CM 10.2 and while I do like it much more than TW there is an issue with bluetooth audio playback that is a deal breaker for me. Before CM I was running the latest version of CleamROM (a touchwiz ROM) with lean kernel. I made a backup before I updated to CM and now I'm looking to go back to that backup.
My question is this: is there anything special I would have to do to go from AOSP to TW? Should it be as simple as restoring the backup or is there anything else I should have to do? Do I have to be careful with the kernels? Right now I have the latest AOSP Lean Kernel, when I was on TW I had the TW Lean Kernel? Will there be an issue when I restore the backup or will it restore the old kernel I was using as well?
Thank you!
If you would like to continue trying CM and don't mind using 4.2.2, the latest CM 10.1 stable build has working bluetooth. I'm using the build now and it runs like a champ.

I was able to factory reset/wipe cache and then install another ROM no problem. I'm not sure why you are not able.

Flash kangabean ROM if you're looking for AOSP experience. If you want to remain on touchwiz try GoldenEye. It has 4.3 software and is smooth as fk... Unless you're Canadian then you'll experience data drops during calls. I'm using kangabean right now and I'm enjoying it.

Like I said I rooted the phone months ago just didn't want to flash anything until now (I was flashing every week with my other phones lol) Goo manger was not working so I used odin to flash Twrp 2502 for now.. My mean question is it ok to flash my build ver and should I flash a older rom then the new ones for kernel and other things..
am not familiar with your build as i am att
2.5.0.2 is what i use no issues, there is a flashable zip you can keep on sd if you want
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yhrq0tia8512rj9/FCjN8C9RMT/TWRP_Flashable-2.5.0.2.zip
on att some roms required having taken at least the mdl version. not sure if that is something that would apply to Canadian builds. that's why i posted first link. it may have some useful info. someone with Canada will reply here also--
I'm on the latest CM11 nightly and I'm wondering if I can flash back to an older, more stable, version. Is this generally an ok thing to do?

Sounds like a bad idea but definitely possible. If you make a backup first you have nothing to lose in trying right?
Yes its fine to do.
