One of the most popular ICS ROMs nowadays for Android smartphones in general is the ParanoidAndroid ICS ROM. I’ve been guilty of using this awesome ROM on many of my other Android devices like Galaxy Nexus to take advantage of tablet hybrid mode it provides plus the DPI-per-app feature that lets you run apps in phone or tablet mode.
Well, the good news is that it’s now available for Nexus S and Nexus S 4G. Honestly, I don’t think Nexus S has enough resolution to take advantage of the tablet mode on most apps but still, the fact that it’s available for Nexus S is still great news.
The best part? You can even just run this ROM without tablet mode and will run just like any other ROM.
If you want to make most out of your Nexus S or Nexus S 4G, give this ROM a go and let me know what you think, I think you will like it for sure.

Download for Nexus S
Download for Nexus S 4G
MAKE SURE TO INSTALL BOTH FILES TO GET PLAY STORE AND GMAIL!
If you want overclocking, flash Matr1x Kernel also. I recommend version 20.0 CFS.

Very nice rom!!!!!!!!! but when i go on performance, i cant change nothing! stay on ”ondemand” and stay on 1000 mhz!! cant change anything!! you know why??
i have flash the matrix kernel!
well.. and all my application like browser facebook gmail force close! in tablet mode and normal mode! did i do something wrong?
Did you wipe? Did you flash kernel after flashing ROM?
i wipe then install the rom then the gapp then the matrix kernel
yeah u should have OC then.
Not sure why, but with this ROM, it doesn’t work–yes, I am flashing in the “recommended” order + wiping. I had to install SetCPU to get OC functionality. Works fine with the other ROMs though.
OC?? whats that?
ok overclock!! i reflash the matrix kernel?

HELPPPP!!!!!! RUNNING CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY 3.1.0
redownload rom and try again.
Hi thanks I just end up download clockwork mod which had an update and it worked. But now for some reason I can’t change my process seed or the governor. CPU settings are kinda gray so u can’t select it and the governor shows that list but every time I press one it doesn’t change
u need a kernel that supports overclocking likr matr1x
if i flash with that does it mean i will loose everything tho? i used to run ics slim and i was able to overclock on that to like 1800Mhz but now I have no control of it. I downloaded a app that does cpu control but its still maxed out to 1000Mhz
I just installed this ROM. All looked great till I started using apps like Pocket, Instagram to name a few. All of them crashed within seconds and even after reboot and govner change the situation remains unchanged.
HELP
Hi
Love the ROM its great, I have a problem with the gmail app on my Nexus S. I open the app my email loads i can read the first few lines of my email message as i scroll down to read on, the app forced closes and crashes. Any ideas?
Has anyone had this particular problem.

Hi, when I try to install the gapps it says aborted, what do I do?
Also, does this ROM support custom boot logos?
I cant turn on my 4g, I try to use widget I click on it and nothing happen. I tryed to go through setting it force closes everytime .
Can someone please reply, I can’t use the play store and stuck using codename droid that reboots every 5 minutes, can some also tell me how to install the apps I have on my codename droid rom to my paranoid android rom because titanium bckup wont work.
Really digging this Rom. Only problem I’ve had with it is not being able to download picture messages. Any ideas?
Hi, I’m pretty new at this. I have a n00b question. If I wimply want the ROM but I’m not interested in overclocking my device can I skip the part of flashing the matr1x kernel? Or I always have to flash it?
Mart1x kernel is always optional.
Thanks! I always had that doubt but nobody ever asked the question.
Hi,

just loaded the 1.3 beta, and it’s getting hammered out very nicely. my favorite rom so far for that perapp density setting.
This rom is so Nice but all my app forceclose can somebody help me ?
I like this rom. Many things are nice BUT when i set parameter on phone mode i can’t receive call anymore : phone app crashes on ring or it doesn’t ring at all.
I tried (i think i did) all dpi parameters, if i don’t let the default parameters phone app doesn’t work anymore.
So, as tablet mod is not as confortable, i will install another rom…
Thank you for everything, Max. I really appreciate your work. I am looking forward to watching your next Nexus S tutorial on your new site(maybe something about Jelly Bean or TWRP 2.2.0)!
