Ok, I'm on the next ROM flash 4.1 first starting with, as suggested by this site developer, with 2.2 in the ROM installing section.
PRO:
Full Google Market after some work, please review the Youtube video on this if the written instructions on this site does not work.
1. Go to settings, applications, system applications, market-force stop and clear cache.
2. Go to Google services framework--force stop clear data then reboot a couple of times.
4.1 improves on the quickness and stability of 2.4 which I migrated to after having issues with 2.2 and 2.4. Mainly slow scrolling issues and crappy browser, calendar and contacts. Plus, lack of a weather feature and would not recognize .wma files.
Cons:
I'm experiencing some Wifi issues. Wifi is on and appearing to receive, connected to my network yet unable to access the internet. The fix:
1. Go to settings, Wifi and settings, instead of choosing from a scanned network input my own SSID and encryption code.
2. Choosing never for under the advanced settings, wifi sleep policy from the drop down list.
I'm only giving my account so those choosing from the various ROMs will have an idea what they may be up against. Also, some bluetooth issues which I am still troubleshooting. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
Biggest issue is they added in 4.1 usb debugging as the first option and with auto connection whether or not you have it checked in settings. Big problem for side loading. It has crashed my laptop Windows 7 (64) at least 7 times. Attempted to input the code in the C:/ prompt however that did not fix the problem. Anyone, any suggestions?
What worked in 4.1 without issue:
Android Market (full)
Adobe Flash 10.1
Adobe Reader
Android System Info
Andromax
Antivirus
Auto Killer
Bluetooth File Transfer
Camera
Cleanoid
Contacts
Desktop Labels
Dictionary
Documents to Go
EasyShare
Facebook
Gallery (found original version called Gallery Invoker in Android Market)
Gmail
Google Maps
Launchpro (with 7 homescreens running in a rotating cube, flawlessly with labels)
Navigation
Photoshop Mobile
ROM Manager
Task List
The Weather Channel (the weather feature was removed from the ROM)
Titanium Backup
TouchRecalibration (the browser fixed and fluid, bookmark to desktop is back)
tv.com (works extremely well)
Twitter
Wikidroid
Winamp
Yellowbook (not yellow pages but both work, but yellowbook is awesome giving you a street view of what you are searching for).
Re: 7 Homescreens--Productivity, Utilities & Tweaks, News & Resources, Communications, Entertainment, Quick Web Launch (for my favorite bookmarks from my browser) and Executive Assistant (which loads all my email accounts, social networking, RSS feeds--all on one screen. I can scroll up and down and see what has come in at a glance.)
As you may know Chrome is able to sync all his content with google servers...
ICS can do that kind of syncing too...
I'm getting "problems" with the syncing on the phone... why?
Is this happening to anybody else?
It is happening to me. I can not sync my bookmarks.
I've try deleting bookmarks on Google servers through Dashboard and then re-sync by signing in in the Chrome Option > Personal stuff
I sometimes manage to get some sync but even though I manage to sync all my folders (I can see them all in ICS browser bookmarks), a lot of them are empty.
So the sync kind of works, but somehow stops while performing it, and I don't know at which level: is it during the upload of Chrome bookmarks on the server? Is it between the server and Android?
Finally, when I sync Chrome bookmarks and hit refresh on Dashboard, I've seen different results. Sometimes only 2 bookmarks are synchronized, sometimes 58... i've counted, I have 303, excluding folders.
Please someone help, bookmark sync was the main feature I was expecting in ICS
Sync works great between Chrome and FF using Xmarks btw.
Nexus S i9023 4.0.3 stock
on chrome you can check the sync status by opening this address:
about:sync
I suspect that on the phone I'm not able to sync even a single bookmark as my whole chrome sync is encrypted using a custom passphrase and I cannot find a way to input that passphrase into ICS ...
I don't use a custom phrase. I've just tried with default settings.
1st try: 7 bookmarks uploaded to Google servers;
after deleted uploaded data, I've tried again:
2nd try: 199 bookmarks uploaded.
This erratic behavior is infuriating, I don't understand what's going on. We can't be the only two with this issue...

Yes, after like 10 minutes the sync reports the error and is tagged with a red icon

Same here.
I followed your link: about:sync, and I noticed an "Actionable Error" on the top right corner (in full screen): "throttle"
i don't know the conditions which trigger this error, but could it be the reason the bookmarks cannot sync between desktop Chrome and ICS browser?
I've tried a clean sync:
1. Sign out from Personal stuff in Chrome Options
2. Delete Chrome data from Google Dashboard
3. Wait a few minutes and confirm in about:sync that there's nothing synchronized
4. Delete data and cache from ICS browser (in Manage Applications)
5. Sign in Personal stuff in Chrome Options
6. Choose what to sync: I chose only Bookmarks, Encrypt passwords, Use my G. Account PW > OK
It begins to sync. When monitoring about:sync, the error appears: THROTTLED
Can it be the source of our issue?
I use Chrome 16 (no beta, up to date)
EDIT:
I click on sync browser in ICS options, I got no error, but:
* ALL of my bookmarks folders are synchronized: this is good
* SOME of my folders are empty, SOME are full, 1 folder is half full
* It seems to sync in an order. In Chrome, my bookmarks folders are in the bookmark bar: 1, 2, 3, ... 10
* In ICS, the full folder are 10, 9, 8.., the empty are 1, 2, 3...
* One folder is half full, (let's say folder 6)
It seems I had no problem synchronizing folder 10 to 7, but during the sync of the 6th folder, it stopped.
Question: WHY?
at this point I disabled browser syncing and will wait a patch that will allows the user to set his encrypt passphrase
in my case (obviosly) no bookmarks are appearing and that's a good sign as I didn't provided android the key to decrypt the bookmarks

Have you tried delete the account option in Sync Parameters?
I'm not sure if I understood your question.
You mean deleting from within chrome on my pc?
On the PC it appear to be working correctly... and there's no way I'll ever upload my browser data/bookmarks/history using the default settings (no encryption)!!!
In the unfortunate case they are not able to fix the syncing while using encryption I'd rather switch to firefox and use firefox sync
Dont use encryption in Chrome sync for everything, set it for passwords only. Then the bookmarks will sync.
I see... well if that's the only way I'm sorry: I will not push to google my history or my favorites just because ICS is not able to sync encrypted content
I found that I can't change the option of encrypted data types in Chrome.
and the status is Encrypted with Password.
I'm using beta version of Chrome. And Nexus S with ICS OTA. Browser sync error.
Is there anything I can do to sync the bookmark?

Hey,
I finally got it working. I posted a thread on reddit and updated it as the issue was solved.
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/nhe8p/issue_with_ics_browse_cant_sync_with_chrome/
In short, the problem seemed to come from the sync process, not from ICS browser. For some reason, it didn't sync properly. The sync "THROTTLED" and wouldn't complete. That's why I saw all folders but not all bookmarks. I reduced the number of bookmarks (I still have 100+) and the sync passed (SUCCESS shown in about:sync in a Chrome tab).
If I remember correctly, I chose to sync only bookmarks and passwords, with an encryption on passwords. But it may work with a full encryption.
Thanks, will check it out
Yup, it seems to be the encryption in google chrome. I couldn't sync my bookmarks with my Nexus S (ICS), so I deleted the sync and started it again, without encryption of the bookmarks, only passwords. Now bookmarks sync again.
Not the best solution, though...

Any News on that? Same problem with i9000 and cm9...
Hey everyone.
I use the (cloud) print option daily, and with the N4 I used the official Cloud Print app, which puts a CP option in the Share menu. With the N5, this isn't even an option. The Coud Print app shows up as installed in the Play Store, but there's no option for it in existing apps. I suspect this will require all apps to be updated, which is a problem. I will have to install a thrid party Cloud Print app too.
If anyone has a workaround for this I'd be glad to know.
Hello, I have a problem with cloud print in the nexus 5. From the computer and with my chrome's account I activated the USB printer which is shared on the network (the printer have not wifi), when I open the menu for print any document (or anything that can be printed) instantly (1 second) the menu is closed and a message saying "the application cloud print has been stopped". I have everything stock and have restored the phone. If I get before the application stops (in 1 second) click on the option and then choose "Save As PDF" the menu does not close and I can select the printer then, and print without giving the app closes. If I delete cloud print with Clean Master and I downloaded the apk and install, runs smoothly, so not where the problem is.
Do you know that can happen?
Nothing? ****

Please forgive me for not understanding. Does the above mean that it's working now?
Sent from my Nexus 5
No, for this i'd have to remove the app pre-installled in nexus, I tried this but I restored the phone
Google Cloud print (or any other print service plugin) not working on the MIUI 6.
When i go to printing menu, the plugins are listed as off. Selecting any one of them doesnt give any option to enable.
Using printing option from any application gives only the option of "save as PDF". Finding a printer doesnt give any result.
Any solutions?

Same issue here... It seems all print services are not supported due to some policy limitations from Google, I am not able to understand exactly what the problem is. Check out this link http://en.miui.com/thread-50584-1-1.html
Hp ePrint app will work as well as other print apps that do not need service plugin.... If not resolved soon, this will be the first reason for me to root and get CM on my phone, when available...
