lmao. you are really funny. just because you know how to link doesn't mean doodoo. what you claim, there is no reason to read your links. and why listen to somebody with a pube mustache? i'm not claiming anything. and i don't believe everything on the internet. and your weiner seems to be the hardest over a phone that hasn't officially been announced yet, much less hard specs to go by. sooooo... ummm... yah... i know what ignorant means. i don't know how to get your picture to show. could somebody link on instructions how? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redcellx:
Hey Guys,

I am sure the xda moderators know some of the higher ups at google and other big manufacturers , I read samsung is making an announcement on Sept 1 2011

Is there any confirmed news from creditable source that the nexus prime release date ? I want this phone.

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
I think samsung is having big announcement august 29. I think it 11 gadgets.

I voided my warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redcellx:
Hey,

Thanks for the information on Samsung 11 products on Aug 29th.

Will it be a live keynote event or press release, any way is there any resources where I can watch this event live ?

Thanks

Redcellx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
I don't remember exactly. Im not even 100 percent sure on date. I think that was it. Im sure google would turn up something juicy with samsung announcement search. Im sure everybody and their mama and cousin too will start a thread around that date. If samsung is the next oem for googles phone i wouldn't be surprised if we got some ics tidbits too.

I voided my warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
The video that was leaked said Sept 1. It was later pulled.

I'm thinking November might more more reasonable, no photos or real concrete specs have been leaked, nothing being released through the FCC.

Its a presser to announce the SAmsung Galaxy S II for the US. Not a Nexus Prime announcement, which would partly be a Google announcement/event anyway.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
Well, I personally hate the build quality of Samsung phones. I've had a couple Samsung phones and they scratched so easily. When I spend $500-600 on a phone I don't want plastic. The other thing that bothers me about Samsung is the stupid placement of the power button.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bcpk:
I prefer the Samsung button positioning, on the SGS2 at least. It makes more sense to have the power button easily reachable on a massive phone like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickflores555:
i had an evo for almost a year, it was nice but i traded it in for the free nexus s, i have to say im really impressed by the quality, i know its plastic and samsung has made some phones that feel cheap in the hand before, but if the prime is anything like the nexus s, im sold.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] royolpunk:
Yeah im fine with samsungs design as long as its not TOO flimsy. Like nexus s style Is fine with me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] betoNL:
Wolfson?

I did search ..here and everywhere, but could not find the info:

Which sound chip the Nexus prime is going to have?

Wolfson like the sgs, or Yamaha like the sgs2? Or better than Wolfson?

Does it still got the sirfstarIV gps chipset?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bassmadrigal:
I think if anyone answers, it will probably just be a guess. To get a definite answer, we are going to have to wait until Google and/or Samsung decide to announce it (or we get more leaked details).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] royolpunk:
leaks suck. Last year we thougt the nexus s would have hspa+ and a dual core but it ended up not. I mean its still a great device, just that leaks make us too excited for something that will end up not coming
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
Leaks build up hypes in hopes for higher demand. look at the hype for the bionic and there is not much difference from all the other dual core phones bring released.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bpm2000:
Has Samsung used nicer chips in the past? The audio/media experience of the N1 was one of its big lacking points.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] betoNL:
The Galaxy S got the best sound of any other phone I tested AND any other standalone MP3 player I ever put my hands on, thanks to the Wolfson DAC

Specially in combination with Supercurio's voodoo sound optimizations

The sgs2 didnt come with the same chip and therefore I am skipping it and going straight to the Nexus Prime, at least if its sound is as good or better as the sgs...

«»
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moelester518:
Just saw this. Pretty sure if this is real. If so samsung will be making the Prime.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] royolpunk:
lol wtf. We pretty much already know that samsung will b making it but thanks for the evidence :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TZAR@:
How does everyone feel about the Nexus Prime possibly going to Verizon. I know it's a rumor but...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Verizon is trying to move their focus to iphone. They only heavily promoted android so much because they were losing to atnt and iphone. In the future look to Verizon to start snubbing android phones. And I would thins their DROID lineup might not be promoted as much, or at all because of googles acquisition.

I voided my warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bcpk:
It's unlikely to be CDMA only. That would be an extremely foolish move.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattpannella:
i know there's no reason to believe me but my friend does marketing and advertising for samsung and knows they're doing the nexus prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bennettm89:
I wish HTC would do it. I just like the build design of the Nexus One. It is very sturdy, I've dropped it... nothing happens. The plastic feel is just not my cup of tea. If Samsung truly does manufacture this year's flagship device for Google, I may be pursuing a new type of phone - one that is not of the nexus line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bpm2000:
If it goes to Verizon I will be upset I waited this long to not get the S2 or sensation, but at least those sets should be a bit cheaper by then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bennettm89:
Yeah, I've been holding out off of the sensation also. I'm hoping they do it right and leave it unlocked GSM, as they did with the N1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] royolpunk:
Can't believe verizon didn't get the sgs2. they BETTTER be the only carrier to get the samsung nexus prime, if they do end up getting it at all even.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] royolpunk:
Also, I bet once the Prime comes out TONS of devs will flock to it, and see who can pump out a rom the fastest and call it Optimus Prime lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rod3:
Seeing as how Verizon never received one Nexus device, there is no way in hell they would get exclusivity on the next Nexus. That would certainly alienate all the dev's whose current dev phone is on Tmobile/AT&T & Sprint.

Personally, I feel that the next Nexus will again debut on T-mobile and possibly have hidden, firmware unlockable AT&T bands. Then, it will come out on Sprint / or AT&T.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
hmm, will it be just a rehash of the galaxy S ii like how the nexus S is a remake of the galaxy S last year...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
The nexus s was basically a variant of galaxy s series. The next nexus, if rumors prove to be true, will not be a variant of s2 series. Supposedly there is Texas instruments omap chipset and imagination technologies gpu overclocked, and it should not have any capacitive buttons.

I voided my warranty and your mum.

While I wouldn't mind if Verizon got it, I would be ticked if it was an exclusive...:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigmout:
I'm holding out hope "Nexus" Prime isn't the same as "Droid" Prime. I just can't imagine Google's alienating users and developers by making the Nexus a Verizon exclusive. I also can't imagine Verizon's agreeing to a vanilla Android experience without all the usual Verizon bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Well the roadmap contained *something* that was labelled model number i9250 with Ice Cream Sandwich loaded on it. The i9xxx nomenclature only seems to be used for GSM/HSPA phones. For example even though Nexus S was GT-i9020(A/T), Nexus S 4G (CDMA+WiMax) is SPH-D720.

So we shall see...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pumpkyn:
Exact same reason I have not replaced my N1 since launch. The only other phone would be the HD2 (which the GF already has). Other than that it hasn't progressed enough for me to jump nor find one that's worth it to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] betoNL:
Well, October is coming....

Does anybody know anything about its sound chip?

Will it be the Yamaha like in the sgs2, or a Wolfson as in the sgs (much superior) ?

Or even better?

And.... what about the gps chipset? Will it have something like that VERY good one - SirfstarIV as in the sgs2 or again a crappy one like in the sgs?

Maybe its too early to know, but if somebody eventually finds out something, please send me a short pm with links and stuff...

Thankls

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hiu115:
hmm... Ice Cream Sandwich...:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buck Shot:
the thought of this going to Verizon without a hint of T-Mobile in any rumor scares me. I held on all upgrades and am still rocking my N1. I was just about to buy a G2X cause i couldnt wait till Dec. but with an October release I will be fine. Just hoping it does come to T-Mo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
So far my only quality phone has been a D3 but I really want a well made htc device. Going to get the optimus prime no matter what (well, unless its a total disappointment).. kinda iffy about sammy considering how bad they effed up the nexus S ... if only HTC would make the Prime. Hopefully google stays on top of sammy to make sure they don't screw us over, I think its gonna be fine though.

Hopefully it looks good and is built with as much care as an HTC device..

Cuz..u know... ice cream melts easy.

Divide by zero, I dare you...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b1337:
how exactly did they eff up up the nexus s so badly??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chromiumcloud:
by having it disgrace the Nexus brand name.

Throw a front facing camera and NFC chip into the N1 and tell me what the flagship device of more than a year's worth of refinement really accomplished?

The NS is not a bad device, but nothing targeted to devs and tech geeks... much more of a consumer device. I wish G would just split the Nexus line into a Nexus consumer phone of recycled components that have been tested way too long for bugs (kinda like a Droid Bionic) and a Nexus Dev phone that while it may be as buggy as a 70's VW, will scream cutting edge and push the boundaries of what's possible with a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hiu115:
I agree with what you said.

You'd be surprised about what samsung has done to the name:

Samsung Galaxy Nexus (where's google?)

where's the nexus prime???

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Nexu...ng-a-4.65-HD-screen-and-metal-chassis_id21952
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hiu115:
Also, with Prime sporting the same screen res as Galaxy Note (and with the same specs), i wouldn't be surprised to see the price as high as $1000 (i'd buy an ultrabook then)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ydyzzm:
Not sure whether I should get N-Prime or Samsung Note. What do you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theearthisflat:
Buying whatever is vanilla Android. Seems like the prime will be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Depends. Curious to see how well the architecture is implemented. Specifically, hw acceleration and battery life. Curious to see how well it plays different media too. I hope the rumor is true, hdmi and mhl. That means hdmi out and you can charge at the same time. I was thinking about getting a cheap gs2 but this might work out. I am worried the high res and higher clocks of the omap processor and oc'ed powergx vr 540 might eat thebattery like its going out of style.

I voided my warranty and your mum.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dharkness:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b1337:
Why do u think its exclusuve to verizon first?? Rumors....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
- Reps said that Verizon passed on the SGSII to have an exclusive deal with Samsung to stock the Galaxy Nexus.

I just read some speculation that it may actually turn out to be a 4.3" device rather than 4.65 or 15 feet or whatever other massive proportions. Hallelujah! I want a phone I can actually hold!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattpannella:
yeah, i never thought about this either

it's only 4.6 because the bottom is dedicate to displaying the buttons. so the actual display area is only 4.3

i'm on board now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Major Clod:
It's approx 4.6" diagonal based on a 320ppi density and a 1280x720 resolution.

4 inches high and 2.25 inches wide. This will include the buttons down the bottom as per honeycomb.

Comparatively, the SGS2 screen is approx 3.7 inches high and 2.20 inches wide.

The latest speculation is the photo is of the Nexus Prime next to a tablet:

I have to say, such a pairing would be a master stroke.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bpm2000:
If it actually is as it looks, agreed. I would assume it isn't as curved as it appears in that still though - they must have done "pocketability" studies on such a sweeping curve. At least, I hope.

Check this out: http://androidandme.com/2011/10/news/is-this-a-screenshot-of-the-nexus-prime/

There is also an unusually large bottom bezel for a phone without capacitive buttons.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattpannella:
pretty sure the status area is considered part of it, but yeah the button buttons are not

nexus one is 800x480 including the status bar. this shouldn't be any different
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Obsy:
I didn't said it with malicious, but it's better to read in several places to be sure of what you say. Best regards! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Keep in mind that as of Honeycomb 3.2, Android started reporting the screen dimensions excluding the status bar. So perhaps the software-reported resolution in ICS also excludes the status bar and button bar.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattpannella:
ah ok, i haven't used honeycomb i didn't realize they exclude the status bar

but wait a second, aren't the buttons and status bar the same thing in honeycomb?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
They are in Honeycomb.

I'm not so sure in ICS. The leaked ICS video for Nexus S shows a top status/notifications bar, and the leaked photo of part of a Nexus Prime shows buttons on the bottom. So maybe on ICS they are separate, one on top and one on bottom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbrinkley:
this is what I thought also
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zer0day:

I'm already looking forward to the phone, I don't think I've actually been this excited for a phone before (!). If it is a phone + tablet combo, then WOW!!!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catsa:
Can someone explain to me why this next-gen super phone is so low profile? It doesn't even have its own subforum in its own unofficial home (XDA)!! And it's supposedly coming out next week ?!

I wasn't even sure if its under Nexus, Galaxy, Samsung, HTC, Google, lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yeah, I can explain: It hasn't even been announced yet!! How the bleep is it supposed to have its own forum?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
It doesn't even have an official name yet... Lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catsa:
Yeah my question is WHY? There's like almost no hype besides that one photo of the device. Is this the first time Samsung has been so hush-hush with a big release?

I guess i'll try to answer my own question then. I guess they feel that there's no way they coudl compete with Apple's announcement, so they'll just stay in the shadows and tease us a bit here and there, until next week where there's going to be a media ****storm that completely eclipses iPhone 4S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
For one its not being released next week. And two, and even more important is now that now samsung has something under its belt, the best marketing is no marketing to build up the rumors and hype. And as much i dont like apple, i can admit that jobs put something on the technological table. If he didnt, we'd probably be using symbian and windows mobile still. Keeping the lid on stuff as much as you can only makes people want to pry the lid wide open even more. Though most of us are android fans, you gotta admit a lot of us kept up on the rumors of iphone too. I admit it.

I voided my warranty and your mum.

Has anyone tried to take a T-Mobile N1 on VZW LTE?

Can you initiate calls directly from the google maps app?

I have the US wifi version and use GrooVe IP to make VoIP calls from my tab. It works great. I can directly select phone numbers in the browser to make outgoing calls. Unfortunately, Google has removed the feature to initiate calls from the maps app. That means when I use maps to search for a place that I want to call I have to remember the phone number, close down maps, open up my dialer app and punch the number in myself.

Is that the same for the 3G/4G version? If not, could someone post the map apk? Is there another way to add that feature? It works fine on cell phones, I don't understand why Google removed that feature on tabs?!? (granted they are wifi tabs but isn't that what Google Voice is for?)
