[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
Generally the studios set a price and then the various distributors add a small markup to make it viable for them. So a studio may say, we'll license Star Trek to you for $2 per rental. Then the distributor (in this case Google) may add 99c or $1.99 to make it $2.99 or $3.99 and rent it for that amt. for a certain period of time. In other words, those are the prices you're going to find for renting movies online, period because they've more or less been set by the industry. Maybe a $1 cheaper here or there, but those are the general prices.

I don't know if you're into Anime, but for next time you may want to consider crunchyroll.com which has an app on the market, (i subscribe to the site) there's a lot of free anime on there too or if that's not your thing crackle comes to mind, though the crackle app I don't think has been optimized for HC - you may be able to view video through the website directly.
[Acer Iconia A500] klaus9000:
I like the offline option on the market videos - something I wish netflix had. If I have the time I usually redbox a few movies and rip them for the Acer.

i just got this phone from my cousin. according to my cousin, the batteries were the problem. i bought new batteries. -my phone turns on, and after it passes adroids logo, it just shuts down, and randomly start up again.

is this the phones problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prashanth1990:
When will it be released in India?

Same as other regions or any changes?

What if i get it shipped from UK? (Clove or Expansys)

Does Nexus have MHL support?

Is it Plastic Body or Metal?

Whats the difference? (TI OMAP 4460 chipset / Exynos chipset)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slowz3r:
it supports MHL, Body is Plastic with some metal to make it solid(i think)

Hardware Change?

Will there be a change in hardware for indian version of Galaxy Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mineshrai:
I don't think so that there will be any change in hardware of Galaxy Nexus for Indian version. Indians may get the device in some were early next year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragooon123:
Didn't Samsung release SGSII quite early for Indians or is that just an illusion? And generally Indian phones are same as world wide GSM ones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Hardware Change: LTE Radio

Those phones which are going to be released in the stateside will carry LTE 4G radio, whereas it is not required in our country, we do not have even consistent 3G signal even in our cities.

So i am expecting a 16GB version of SGN with no LTE radio in it.

India - Launch

Guys any Leaks on Indian Launch???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
That's the 4G version, you will get the 3G/GSM version.

Nov 17 has been anounced has the release date for the UK. What is the release date for Acia Pacific..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
It will be launched in India before the end of the year.

http://phandroid.com/2011/11/04/galaxy-nexus-arriving-in-india-before-end-of-the-year/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Hope we will get a date soon..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] server3249:
I think it is Google's fault that the launch is getting delayed. The device is obviously ready but since it is a nexus they want to launch it first in US. Samsung is ready to launch it I think, like how they launched the S2 many months before the US launch. But I think the price will be a big shock. Nexus S is overpriced to date, by at least 5000 over similar spec phones. I think this one will be priced 10000 more than a Galaxy S2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
What..??? 10000 More?? I dont think they can sell it with that price range. Current market price of SGS II in india is 28K - 30K (though Sulekha is selling at 25K). You Add 10000 to it, boom.. 38 -40 K.

Samsung / Google should limit the price to a max of 32-33 K, other wise they will loose the potential buyers. If that is the case, i will wait for another 3-4 months, for some other ICS model from either HTC/LG / Sammy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prashanth1990:
galaxy note or nexus? confused! which one to buy?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Very simple, Are you fond of using stylus, and have a big pocket then go for galaxy note. Note is useful for those people who wants to take quick memos often as part of their work.

Or you just need a phone, then definitely Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prashanth1990:
Thank you bro!

does nexus support MHL???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Supposedly but havent got any confirmation. It has the hardware for it.

I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
I think yes. You just need a standard USB adapter/converter.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sheik_yerbouti:
I noticed a problem with the display a few days ago. When I load an app that has dark background, like say TweetDeck, I noticed that the greys at the top of the display were fake than the greys at the bottom of the display, just above the 3 buttons. Top test that this was not how the app was designed, I loaded up a fully grey image, and noticed the same behavior. The gradation didn't change when I viewed the phone in landscape mode. In this case, the lighter grey was towards the right of the screen.

Have you guys noticed this on your phones? Is this normal like the people tinge effect, it can this be considered a hardware defect?

TIA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haxor:
there is a screen issue with this phone...check the galaxy nexus forums.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sheik_yerbouti:
What did you have to do to get it fixed? I tried the color hack presets in AOKP, but I wasn't satisfied with the results. The gradients were still there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OrrPenn18:

Great news guys google cut down the price of nexus which is quite impressive.

its aroung 18 k according to indian rupess :D

So amit still thinking about whether or not to by this phone?

Bro now i will definitely buy nexus when it available on ebay around 18 k :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pranavhooda:
I bet its price will never come below 21k.....

Kick ass so far! No issues with anything at present. Apex Launcher keeps crashing though. Nova works fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pat123:
Lol dude! First things first: Add shipping plus tax on phone when bought on play store. It comes out ~$380. Even without adding shipping cost to India and custom duties/taxes, it still translates to ~21.5k! I din't even count foreign currency conversion charges if you buy using your Indian credit card. Please explain how you arrived at the magical 18k figure :p

Yup. Did that and fixed permissions from recovery as well. Switched to Interactive governor and things seem alright now. Forgot to comment here! :|

Pretty awesome so far, considering it's just been < 48 hours since the announcement!

There's Paul's (from MoDaCo) ROM with some tweaks available now if anyone's interested.

Might give it a shot later.

He is gonna try and purchase it from Ebay so there are chances we see them come down to that rate not 18k but close enough :laugh: , my thought , get some one from states get it to you now that its 389 .. you'll not have to pay all the taxes :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haxor:
What i am trying to tell if google cut down the price then we will see affect on all over the world. I am not saying that i will get it exact 18 k but the price will be close to 18 k.

See eBay, they increased the price to 28-29k from 24k.

Hi. I was riding on bike while it was raining . Though I kept my gnex in plastic cover it caught moisture. After reaching home I didnt see a single drop of water on phone so kept for charging with original charger. Then I smelled some burning from charging port so removed immediately. Now If I charge my battery from external charger then my phone is working fine but I can't charge it thru micro usb port.

What should be the problem?? Should I have to replace my usb pcb like this?

also I f u find anything cheaper than this then please tell

Should I go to samsung service center or get it repaired from local guy.

I am in Bangalore, plesae tell me good local service center to repiar my phone.

Come on Galaxy Nexus..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malliktajmahal:
Not gonna come in near future

I don't think they will release in India with current condition. with the bugs in it. Indian don't dare to go to the sotre yet. I am awaiting for the fix for the bug and will order from clove or handtec.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hrithan2020:
Its NOT a hardware bug, if you are talking about the volume issue, and it seems to have been mostly fixed, with the new updated [leaked?]..

Pray, tell me the other host of bugs in this phone, which would deter any Indian from buying?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
I think it is better that it is getting delayed, Since India's network is 98% 2G, we can expect a hardware level fix, so that the phone will not get into such kind of intereference problems.

Hopefully by January.

Samsungs reply

I asked Samsung about the galaxy nexus and this wt they said:

As per the mentioned query regarding Samsung mobile model Galaxy Nexus launching information, let us inform you that

still now we don't any official information for the same. So we request you to kindly bear with us.

Well this was like 10 days ago.

I advice every1 to contact them and ask about it so something can be said of the release date.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Thanks for the info Hsadhvani, Through what mode you contacted them, please share the contact info like email or phone numbers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsadhvani:
the simple contact us form on the samsung india website
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] server3249:
Answered in the typically useless Indian style I see. You call up any customer care and their dialogue always starts with "we wish to inform you that"...

BTW I think Samsung has discontinued the nexus S in India, where as it is still being sold in other countries at lower price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
there is not even a slightest hint on India release, something to do with the phone working in 2G network?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsadhvani:
the volume bug has been fixed now so v should c it by the end of this month.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malliktajmahal:
I don't think so. I have bought it from clove I don't even find Pouch or Screen protectors in online....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
This is India dude, definitely you cant find those stuffs before the launch of the phone.

Goddamn samsung.. I didnt buy SGS II just for this device.

---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

The volume bug was fixed at software level, the actual problem is from the faulty hardware.

Since India is predominantly using 2G network, probably they are getting the new batch ready for the Asia pacific with the hardware fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hrithan2020:
Got fed up of waiting and go the SGS II instead !! Considering that there are rumours of a leaked ICS build coming probably on Dec 15, it seems quite likely that I will be running ICS before SGN comes to India. Sad!! :(..

Come on samsung, bring it already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Is it possible to order from Negri Electronics (USA), they are selling it for 685$ after applying the coupon, But will they ship it to india?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsadhvani:
yeah possibly. it hasnt been officially announced anywhere in asia also except japan n korea. so v should get the fixed one here soon. hope dey dont over price it has been done in uk.

btw i heard is $650 in canada so should be like 32k here i guess. n vll get it in some shops for like 30k i guess. i guess it will come by early jan 2012 nt or like last 2-3 days of dec minimum. :)

n i contacted them again n dey said dey have no info abt the release date yet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
When it comes to india, they are doing this always.. They made us waiting for so long for the Samsung Galaxy S II, now same thing is happening for Galaxy Nexus..Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Samsung won't push the galaxy nexus here I think. They have already removed the nexus s while it is still being sold in other countries. They want to lock people into their modified oses so that the customers don't get updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsadhvani:
totally agree
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
No way buddy. India is huge market with lots of sale potential. They would sell atleast 250 thousand phones here.

Probably they need some time to sell of Galaxy Note. If Galaxy Nexus hits india, it will definitely affect the Galaxy Note sale.

I am expecting by January 2nd Week. Let us see.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] server3249:
Galaxy nexus has nothing to do with the Note. Note is a stupidly large device with zero desirability as far as I'm concerned.

Though it is a humongous device, still is a product of Samsung, and they dont want to compete with their own product. That is why the launch has been delayed, i guess.

eBay. You can even pick it up locally from this reseller:

http://www.ebay.in/itm/BRAND-NEW-Sa...10990?pt=IN_Mobile_Phones&hash=item1c27c2050e

See bottom: "Bangalore buyers has privilege to collect the item directly from us."

And people worried about warranty, there is no warranty, really. These are imported phones. Forget about official warranty. At the most, you might get a reseller warranty for 3 months. That's about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
The problem isn't exactly fixed, but I'm totally fine with it. The new OMAP Gamma settings available in kernels are fixing it somehow. The screen is super crystal clear so I don't wanna risk returning my phone and get a perfect colored but grainy screen.
