Android 2.3.5! First for the Nexus S! Latest GAPPS included!
Beta 0730 is now up! Check download links below!
Features here may be broken, or may be completely stable, its all for testing. Some things may disappear from one version to the next, depending on how I find them. That said, these initial versions are pretty solid, although nothing much has changed from aosp. Currently it is a pretty solid test, if a bit bland, but soon that will change.
Carbon comes in 2 varieties, Carbon S (for the Nexus S GSM) and Carbon 4G (for the Nexus S 4G on sprint). These two are incompatible with each other, please do not flash a GSM version on your 4G for example, you may be in for trouble. And I will laugh at you for not reading this 😉
Nexus S 4G roms are also more likely to have issues regarding signal, as I can't test things myself for obvious reasons.

Upgrading between releases
Upgrades usually do not require a wipe, please check instructions for the update in question before flashing.

If you have issues after an upgrade following these steps, boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache and see if the issue persists.
Also these are DEVELOPMENT versions, not what you will see in the final version. Once again, this is very much currently a stable aosp base with some tweaks and extra behind the scenes frameworks.
