Hello everyone:
I don't set my expectations too high. I know that this is a new phone, and it is not without it's bugs, but it is an awesome phone and from reading others who were having issues, I wanted to get a Nexus S working right for me!
I purchased my first Nexus S at a local Best Buy.
Everything about the phone was fine, the battery life seemed good, it ran quickly, did not notice any lag or any other major problems. However, I did begin to notice the back-button being unresponsive, as many others have stated experiencing. From reading threads on XDA, the jury is still out on whether this is a software or hardware issue, but that some people were able to get a phone without the issue by returning it for a replacement.
So I did...
I exchanged for my second Nexus S at a local Best Buy.
This one was kind of odd. Took a little while the for the 'important system updates' notice to come up, so I had already synced with my gmail and had also manually updated google maps and a few other apps.
When I finally did install the system update and the phone booted, I got a systemcore process FC error off the bat. Not good news. Later on, all seemed well, but I noticed a lot of lag with using the GB keyboard (unresponsive at times), and also having difficulty with the end-call button to end a call in progress (again, unresponsive so I had to press it a bunch of times before it would respond). Also, the battery life did not seem to be nearly as good as the first Nexus S.
So... I turned it back to Best Buy, but they did not have another replacement. So I turned it in for a refund.
I called Best Buy toll-free number, told them about the trouble that I was having, and they waived the overnight shipping fee, took my order for a new Nexus S, and I got it via UPS the next day (just at the 24 hour mark)
With this phone, I booted the phone and chose skip to login/create a gmail account. Phone loaded up completely, and I was just signing into my gmail account when I got the 'important system updates' message.
I updated immediately. Everything went smoothly.
I have not noticed any problems so far. The phone runs smoothly. It had no FC upon first boot after the system update. The back button works as it should. I don't notice any lag with the keyboard. I pulled up engadget.com full site and did not notice any lag out of the norm, apart from it being slow to load as I'm working with the crappy Edge network here (who cares if there are 4G phones out when my area doesn't even have 3G yet and that is where I am mostly). I have also tested the ringtones. I moved some music to my SD Card. I downloaded/installed Ringdroid. I created a ringtone. I set the ringtone. I have rebooted my phone three times and my ringtone still works. I mounted and unmounted my SD card (even moved some files to it), and I still have my ringtone.
So, what was it? Was it three times the charm? Was it there was a bad batch at the local Best Buy? Was it that because of the volume of Best Buy over phone and online sales, you'll get a newer and better Nexus S going through that route? Was it because I installed the system update before doing anything else, including syncing my gmail? I'm not sure...
But I do know that I love this phone, and *knock on wood* it continues to work the way that it should, I'll be happy with it for a long time to come.
My advice for those who are experiencing the issues that I had with my first two Nexus S to try try again. I know it's disappointing that a customer would have to do that in the first place as it is time consuming and stressful, but in the end, there might be a happy ending with you and your Nexus S.
Glad everything is working out for ya. Luckily my first nexus s has been great from day one.

I have my second phone and it feels like the screen is less sensitive as on my first one. Unfortunately I cannot say if this is a problem with 2.3.1 because my first phone never got the 2.3.1 update and got stuck with 2.3. I have the feeling that 2.3 was much faster and less laggy than 2.3.1. I probably will return the phone again to see if this is a phone problem or if this was introduced with 2.3.1.

it force closes if i use it in the default app.
it's just black if I use it in Tango.
I'm from Canada and bought the phone off someone from craigslist
OK so I tired hard reboot and the camera is still stuck on posterize mode. Now, I go to research getting AT&T to fix it and they won't because the outside of the phone has a ding from the first week I got it (before having a case) and they void your warranty exchange if there is any physical damage!
Any suggestions on fixing this one? How do I even find somewhere that could fix it?
I am not going to pay $500+ for a refurb phone that is only warranteed for 90days from AT&T when this one is barely that old and the camera doesn't work...grr.
That sounds more like software rather than hardware related, so...
I don't know if you've tried it, or if it'll work, but try going to manage applications in settings and clearing data for the camera app.
That's helped me with other apps that get stuck on stupid every so often.

Thanks, the clear data didn't work either.
I got a hold of HTC and it will be headed in to them in Texas to repair in the near future. Just have to find my spare phone (non smartphone how am I going to survive!) so I have something for the next 2 weeks.
My only other option is to try the AT&T repair center at my parents in FL when we visit this weekend (there are none in our state) but I would probably run into the same situation of having to leave it behind...

Have you tried a different camera app? I like MIUI camera if you're running an AOSP ROM (can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984279 and other places), but there are others available in Market (just search "Camera"), too, to at least be able to test
I guess I should have mentioned I tried that too!
I tried Camera360 Free and FXCamera from the market and it still came up screwy. Looks OK in Sepia, Grayscale, and Aqua, but not in anything else.
Magically fixed?!!
OK, so sitting a meeting I was playing with doing some of my settings since the factory reset. I deleted one App I had downloaded cause I didn't want it to re-install when returning from being repaired. Now my camera works correctly!
So, I guess the lesson is DO NOT INSTALL TAG READER for the Lowe's plant tags.
I guess I have to call and cancel the RMA until or if it happens again. Weird!

I can relate.
I downloaded "wave launcher," but never even once started it up.
Started noticing my keyboard lagging, and the space key would vibrate every few pushes. Thought it was something that went haywire with a rom I had flashed just prior.
Turns out it was "wave launcher." I thought you kinda had to run an app at least one initial time for it to install itself as a service. Evidently not.
Glad you got it fixed.

Well, I'll start off by saying that I bought this phone new off of eBay and I've had it for like 4 months. Everything was great until I lost my IMEI a while back and then I manually injected it back. Ever since then, my phone has not been able to keep a connection with my 3G since the area I live in doesn't have 4G. Strange thing is that when I go to an area that has 4G, the connection is fine. So, I sent in my phone to Samsung a couple months ago...and they said they fixed it, so I was super happy! Then I saw that indeed...it wasn't fixed. Ever since I got it back from the "repair", the only way I have been able to have any sort of data is by changing the setting in my phone to CDMA only so that I can at least have 1X data. I have finally grown tired of this slow data and called Samsung again. All the guy said after a long conversation is that he could set me up with a other repair. I really don't think that'll do any good whatsoever, since it didn't do anything for me the first time. So, if anyone bothered to read through this whole thing, I thought I'd ask if anyone knows of anything I could do to try and solve my issue. I seriously would pay the person that helps me solve the issue. And if no one is able to help, then I have my shipping label and everything already to send my phone back to Samsung again. I hope it doesn't come down to that though! Anyways, thanks for reading!

Bring it into sprint, and tell them that your invoking your samsung warranty. If they can't fix it you will get another phone. I had to do this after my phone, purchased from ebay, started to give me trouble with constant reboots for no reason, then it would freeze up.. It took one trip to the store, then a call to sprint to get it done..

So this is my first samsung (S6 Edge 64) since the moment (which was an absolutely terrible phone and i vowed to never go samsung again) Ive been with HTC ever since the OG EVO. I was very excited to get the s6 mainly for QI and fingerprint scanner.
Well my problem is im having nothing but issues with this damn thing. MMS messages wont download unless i force stop play services and hangouts and clear cache then reboot. Also i dont get any of my push notifications like i should. With my m7 as soon as i use my gwallet card my phone would go off with the push notif. now i can use the card and ill be lucky if i get a notification ever. My google opinion rewards never show up, emails dont come in until i open the app and manually refresh. In general everything that makes this a worthy smartphone is failing, what good is it to have always connected internet if i dont get my notifications how im supposed to. Its almost as if data just stops working until i force it to work. Along with that data apps will take forever to load most of the time and i have to reboot to fix it. This is also evident when i try to open gwallet to add some funds to my card, the app will open and i put in my pin and it just sits there waiting to log in. The other day i was in line at the store and it took me 10 minutes of F^#&!ng around with gwallet to get it to finally log in correctly and let me add funds. At that point I felt like smashing the POS on the ground. Again I open up the m7 and click gwallet and BAM it opens up instantly with ZERO FU#KING ISSUES
Also the wireless charger on both my gf and my phone dont keep the phone topped off, we will wake up and the phone only be at 80-90% charge.
Also the Night clock on the edge lights up the whole damn screen, WTF is that all about, was that really not noticed in QA testing???
I have turned off connections optimizer since its garbage software, i made sure everything i want to sync is set so and ive checked all the settings multiple times (again no one should have to jump through all these hoops to get the phone working how its supposed to out of the box)
Ive cleared all google services cache and wiped dalvik six times in recovery. When i got the phone i skipped setup and downloaded the OTA, let that install then did a factory reset and then finally i set my phone up. Still have the issues.
My gf phone (regular s6 32) is also having mostly similar issues and she just jumped ship from the iphone 5. Her facebook almost never loads correctly, unless she is on wifi which is a slower connection by far (home wifi is aprox 8mbps and her cellular data in the same spot is aprox 15-20mbps)
This is NOT how a $1k phone should act. Its not an issue with google either as i can turn my m7 back on and connect it to wifi and everything works perfectly. All notifications populate instantly how it should.
One thing Apple does get right is the stuff usually just works and works well. Im an experienced tech guru and even im having these problems, If someone like me has these issues i can only understand how someone might feel coming from an iphone or something else.
All in all I know not everyone is having these problems (or at least all of them) but its really upsetting me and again samsung is putting a terrible taste in my mouth.
This is the end of my rant for now, im sure ive forgotten some of the issues ive had so far but ill leave the book as it is now. Anyone else getting extremely frustrated with this phone that costs way to much to be having these problems with!!
I called sprint about the data not syncing known issue they said latest software has issues to wait for an update from samsung have to use wifi to sync gmail and same if you use facebook prolly same thing with wallet i dont use it so not sure playstore and internet browser work on lte dont use mms much will have to test that today

Does your auto rotate at least work? If so, consider yourself lucky.
The night clock thing seems to be a software issue but Samsung support is clueless about it.
I've got the same issue as you my friend. This just starting happening to me. I will not get any notifications at work. ZERO. No email notifications, groupme, twitter nothing! I have called sprint and they just tell me to update PRL and Profile. Most of the time that works but I shouldn't have to do this. It has to be something about Spark switching off to LTE and 3g making you lose your profile on the network. I have go as far as switching my preferred network to LTE/CDMA instead of Auto and DATA roaming is set to HOME only. I'm hoping this fixes the issue for now until Sprint and Samsung can get this worked out. I am 95% sure this is a Samsung issue. My note 2 and Nexus 6 never had this issue.

Why was the update pushed out if it has known issues is what i want to know, if so many ppl are having this same problem surely it reared its ugly head somewhere along the road of certification? Thats not really acceptable to tell us we have to use wifi in order to use the phone correctly smh

I do have working auto rotate, and your right about night clock being a software issue, what upsets me is samsung is clueless about it? Again all the testing that goes on i cant believe no one noticed it before a major multinational launch. It works fine in the news feed but not the night clock that seems crazy to me.

This is definitely a samsung problem, as there are many other spark phones in the wild that have no issues receiving notifications or dealing with slow (dormant) data. I havent looked but is sprint the only one that is having these data issues, i wonder if it has something to do with that bullsh!t connections optimizer more than the towers handing off. That has got to be the most worthless software they have ever forced on us, the absolute first thing i do on any sprint phone is disable that malware. Except for my whole family has LG G3 and no matter how many times you uncheck that connections optimizer it just turns itself back on, GARBAGE
I completely agree about that garbage Sprint optimization app. I've turned that crap off. I've also changed my network preferences to see if that helps. I've gone to home and CDMA/LTE
You guys think that if we wait to see if Sprint can fix this problem that we will still be able to return our phones after the 14 day period if the problem isn't fixed? Because a lot of people on only Sprint have been having this issue. Everyone else on other carriers is enjoying their new Galaxy S6. Has anyone contacted Samsung about the return policy?

I have no idea about Samsung's return policy. Seeing that other cell services are not having this issue I am more sure now it's a issue with Sprint's signal and
Samsung's Cell radio's not playing together nicely. I can see that my download and upload speeds are working fine. It's when the signal goes dormant that
I miss notifications and emails. Which leads me to believe that this can be fixed via a software update. If it was a major issue with the phone every cell customer
would have it. I did see on the sprint website that Samsung and Sprint have acknowledge the problem and are working together. Let's hope an update is sent soon.

My sprint store said to call Samsung. I've had my phone for 18 days. If you're within 14 it's worth a try. Since they won't exchange I'm stuck with a phone where the screen doesn't rotate. It's very frustrating.

Just wanted to update you guys. After talking to Samsung and Sprint on the phone, I was finally able to get a sprint phone rep to notate my account to do an in store exchange even though I was out of the 14 days. So, give that a shot maybe. So far this phone only has the night clock issue. Going to stop using the fast charger in the meantime though.
I've been on 3g for a while now due to this issue, do you guys think if I switch to LTE/CDMA and roaming to homez it'll also work fine?
Im going on my 3rd phone. The first one was the rotation issue, second one my speaker stopped working on calls. Other end could not hear me.
So since I've posted this my push notifications have been better but i still have plenty of the other issues.
I wonder if gplay services have helped any
Great Phone
I haven't had a single issue with my phone...only thing it my be to fast....I just think people who came from iphone can't think outside the box. This is the phone i have been waiting for next update should fix any issues you guys are have. good luck and iphone user should go back to that simple tiny phone..

My phone just started doing this today. Also a Sprint Note 5. No software updates installed recently... most recent was the Sprint and Samsung updates for Samsung Pay, which I did set up-- but I did that day 1. Right before the problem started happening, the phone rebooted itself, and it hasn't been well since. I checked aLogcat, but nothing gets logged there. After a few of the "Bootstrap failed..." toasts, the phone just becomes unresponsive and I have to hard shutdown. The only thing that I can think of that I've done differently today was plug my phone into my laptop to charge it earlier. I don't think I'd ever plugged it into my laptop before.
Hopefully somebody can pin down the cause of the problem here. I'm surprised that aLogcat doesn't show anything, which makes me wonder if it's some Knox issue...

Same problem, I have stock Sprint Note 5 with Samsung Pay updated and activated. Worked fine for a few days then all of the sudden I started getting "Bootstrap Failed" and my phone is unresponsive and/or data connection stops functioning forcing me to restart.
Is Sprint/Samsung aware of this issue and working on a fix? Very annoying. I've uninstalled all updates to Sprint Zone, force stopped and cleared data for Sprint Zone which appeared to help for a couple days, but now it's back again.
Has anyone had any luck with hard / factory reset? I don't want to go through the hassle of backing everything up, wiping it clean and reinstalling everything if at the end of the day it doesn't make a difference.
After a few more lock ups and reboots yesterday, my phone started behaving normally again, but just now I saw another "Bootstrap failed..." toast, so clearly the problem has not gone away. It hasn't locked up again on me yet, so maybe I'll be okay for a while. The only references I've seen to this error have all pointed to the Sprint Note 5, and most have mentioned Samsung Pay, so I suspect it's an issue there. Whether or not Samsung/Sprint are aware of it, I don't know.
I've also read it may or may not have something to do with Sprint Zone. I would agree it's purely due to the recent Samsung Pay update as I've had the Note since launch day and only noticed this after activating and updating Samsung Pay late last week. Before that I used the phone for nearly a month with no issues whatsoever.
While my phone hasn't locked up or rebooted by itself, I still get the "bootstrap failed..." occasionally.
I too think it was associated with the Sprint Zone and/or Samsung Pay update.
late,
Coz
I have only seen it once. Im fully stock to latest update. It happened to me after i noticed i had no data connection showed full lte but i had nothing opened up sprint zone and tried to refresh showed error. Then bootsrtap failed, have not seen it since

Bootstrap failed
It started happening to me after my fingerprint recognition failed, and I could not remember my backup password.
Just started happening to me a few days ago. completely stock sprint phone with the latest update (samsung pay). I noticed that right after the message PRL update began. After that and updating the profile, i havent seen the message.
Any updates on this? I went into Best Buy this weekend and had Samsung Experience store re-flash the OS to the phone, uninstalled Sprint Zone, uninstalled Samsung Pay updates, and force stopped Samsung Pay Framework. It worked fine for a few days but it started showing "Bootstrap failed" again. While it doesn't freeze up like it did the first time I received that message, in general the connectivity seems spotty (I'll show I'm connected to Wifi but nothing shows up on web browser or apps).
The problem is when Samsung Pay installed, it also installed an update to Android, and the Samsung Experience store in Best Buy can only flash the latest version of the OS. They can't revert back to the stock version of Android that came with the phone.
That's the biggest problem. Samsung and Google should make it so that they can revert back to a prior version of Android if the latest version has major bugs in it (which has been increasingly the case since Lollipop began rolling out). I had ZERO problems with the stock software/firmware that came with the device out of the box. Lesson learned I guess, don't accept an update if the version you have works well, until at least a couple months of the new update being out in the wild first....
Haven't seen this notice in a few days. It stopped after manual prl and profile update.
On a side note, I disabled the Samsung pay via package disable pro
Anyone figure this out?
