[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhiral.v:
I had exactly the same problem as you did, on every custom rom I flashed I would get serious lag after a couple of days. I then decided to revert back to stock rom and have had no issues since, so seems that stock is best. I also think that third party launchers create lag after a while also so I would recommend sticking with stock launcher.

It's a shame because I really liked CM7.1 and all the extra customisations it brings.

I do also think that the nexus s does lack ram, if it did have 1GB or even 768MB of ram there definatley wouldn't be an issue.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tevil:
which stock do you use? Or do you just load stock and root it yourself?

as for the OP, 100 apps????? Do you ever go into running prog and shut some down? I dont even think i HAVE 100 apps. I hate app ratting reminds me of iphone users (used to be one and for like every 50th apps my freinds had i had 2)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deejaylobo:
I shouldn't have to. Android is supposed to have good memory management, which is why Task Killers are not recommended. Shutting down running apps is the same thing. Besides, I checked the running apps and there was never anything out of the ordinary.

Also, if Android must compete with iOS, it needs to be able to handle a a lot of apps like iOS does. Anyway, I now believe there must be something off with memory management on all those custom ROMs, as my phone is running quite smooth on stock...despite my "app ratting".
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I agree.

I've been trying all roms.

I found stock rom is the best.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bingstring:
This all was happen with me!

STOCK ROM IS THE BEST !!!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fightingroost12:
everything has its limitations, stop sounding so entitled

"i shouldnt have to" yes you should, your phone cant figure everything out for you. 100 apps is A LOT i have like... 10 besides the stock apps and i never experience lag. We dont have magical black rectangles in our pockets they are phones. Little computers, and sometimes computers run poorly when pushed to their limits. Google has never been quoted to saying the nexus s is known for having 100 apps on the phone. Also dont forget that this phone is a year old, which means the apps your running are more advanced (by a little) than they were last year thanks to constant developer updates. when you have over 100 thats going to take a toll

be smart, think about what your doing, and for gods sake take care of your phone
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alx1xla:
Should be the way to go!

I very much rely on the stock ROM. Running it along with CWM Recovery and CWM SuperUser. Nothing else. At times, it does show up with the lag. Like once in a year. ;)

(Update)] Seems like there is a issue off-late. After I posted this comment, I went ahead with a complete reset. Duh... It is sloooooooooooooow, now! OMG! What have I done?! :eek:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosfaratu:
What is yours stock rom to NS works smooth?

I have to mutch lag..
[Desire HD General] fastney:
witch par do i need to buy if one side of the touch screen is not working :

Touch Screen Digitizer or LCD display

Thank you.
[Desire HD General] affinity121:
Digitizer I believe
[Desire HD General] pwraggcan:
If I were you I'd buy both as they're very hard to separate but it's the digitiser that is faulty.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sigmund7:
I recently bought an AT&T Samsung Focus from a guy online. Now when I insert my carrier's (not ATT) SIM card in it and turn it on, it says "The Sim card is missing or invalid."

I don't know much about Windows phones.

Please help. Thanks.

P.S: I tried *#7465625# in Diagnosis tool and it says SIM/USIM lock disabled
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] escrivel:
Hi,

just wondered who is upgrading your Nexus S to the Nexus Prime? Who is willing to invest over 500€/$ for this new Google Device?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SilverEagle:
I'll definitely wait for a lot of reviews, roms, ice cream on Nexus S to compare and price drop, then i decide what to do.

The screen seems outstanding but there are almost no apps for that resolution, and upscaling is not that good. The ram is nice but i prefer 2gb to never worry about it (at least for 2 years).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cosimoss:
I'm already in queue and my wife gets the "S". :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fslh007:
aha，that‘s a perfect plan！:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
Ill wait for some time for the of contract price drops and of coarse when spdint gets it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j0x7c4:
I like 4.0 inches screen, and 4.65 inch is too large for me... Not easy for taking .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stremax:
just got my nexus s since june... I did not earn so much to spend 600 euros on new phone every 6 months...

and to keep talking nexus s is not so bad at all....:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Skillz1318:
I'm going to stick with my nexus s as I also don't want/need a giant screen...4" is perfect for me. I'm just praying we get ICS on our phones soon!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D G:
If it's a sexy handset which uses nice materials and has a premium feel then I will definately be upgrading.

If it's plasticky and looks typically dull then I will be hesitant and wait to see how ICS performs on my current Nexus S.

Price is irrelevant to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shrivelfig:
I'm perfectly happy with my Nexus S, why would I upgrade?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'm just a poor underage boy, so I'll probably wait for the next Nexus device. Also, I don't know if I like the design from the posters...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wind784:
Gomna upgrade and pass this along to my son, now when it will show up north of the border is another thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tahde:
If Sprint gets this, I'll plan to be on deck to grab two for me and the wife.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dskyers:
the screen is too big but i have bought both nexus one and nexus s one day one lol so i think so but i am perfectly happy with nexus s to be honest there not much i think i need in a phone until 10pm tonight lmao:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicholasbgr:
I'm going to wait and see how ICS performs on the Nexus S but it's gonna be hard to resist and not buy this new baby :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mr.Clark:
I'll wait to see how ICS looks on the S. Also, I will have to wait for Brodit to do the active car kit for it. Couldn't live without the current one now...

Maybe it'll be a bit cheaper by then too...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Killasmoke:
If it comes to sprint & if I got the $ then it's a 100% yes that I will get it the only thing that can make me hesitate is when specs , pictures

of Galaxy S3 comes out cuz that phone will have even better specs I can bet on that 100%
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tenhi:
I will wait for price drop, 6 months or so ;)...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
I'll be picking one up the first day the GSM variant is released. Then the Nexus S will become a dedicated Google TV remote, and the ADP1 will go to the museum. Selling the Nexus S for $150 just isn't worth it, whereas selling the Nexus One for $400 (with dock) after getting the Nexus S was definitely worth it. And I really love the Nexus S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onthecouchagain:
The real question for me is, when will ICS come to Nexus S?

Maybe months...? =T

And is it me or does the screen look like it's not taking up enough real-estate on the phone? Seems like there's a lot of black space below the on-screen buttons at the bottom...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lordofminor:
Pool is missing some other answers. I, for example, have my Nexus S only for couple of days... Its my first smartphone.. Money are problem. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voyager_s:
I'm only a little tempted which is a good thing.

I'm very happy with my nexus s to be honest. It does more or less everything i need in a smartphone.

I'm gonna wait to see ICS on nexus s and go from there. Hardware/GPU acceleration is number one priority.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jacksonj51:
I have a feeling it will come with the crappy 5mp camera that all the Pure android devices employ. If they would just throw in Sammy's camera from the SG2 I would get this phone in a heartbeat.

If 5mp camera then will wait for the SG3, even though it will come with TouchWiz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NVMENOR:
I can wait for one more year, and then we will see how the smartphone market is at that time. My first option will always be the Nexus model, but you never know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Azure465:
I think getting ICS will probably be enough for a while, but I might get it later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krapplejaxx:
I am looking forward to the Galaxy Nexus release...I am pretty sure I want it (since I am somehow due for an upgrade). However, the 5mp camera in the Japanese ad turns me off a bit. I do NOT agree with that advertisement though, because in the video originally posted by Samsung (for the Unpacked event), the "Nexus" had black edges, similar to the S, but the Japanese ad had a 'metal' shiny edge to it. This can mean one of two things:

1) I will call shenanigans on the Japanese ad

or

2) There will be more than one device announced tonight
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] surveysays:
i love my nexus .. for a while (since im with sprint and the galaxy nexus looks like a verizon only) i was thinking of just trying to trade my phone in for a galaxy s II and getting a ROM thats just AOSP stock Ice Cream Sandwich on it.. that why ill have ICS on an more updated device and then once sprint starts to get pure ICS phones or an galaxy nexus varient later on trade the galaxy II for that. one thing thats kinda holding me back though was when i started to use google wallet .. its really really spiffy none the less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
I'll get it if its available on tmobile, but probably not until custom roms and kernels come out for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Eclair~:
It has been stated in several information leaks about the Galaxy Nexus that it had a metal chassis. That Japanese ad is most likely correct, deny it if you will.

The 5MP camera isn't much of a problem as long as the the sensor and all that jibberish is top-notch. Also, the Galaxy Nexus having a 5MP camera has been said quite a bit as well. However even I somewhat doubt this. But I do see it happening.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carne_Asada_Fries:
If the wifi strength is better than I will most likely be getting it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blizzake:
I just want Ics on my nexus	s.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Ill probably end up getting it but I fear we will be let down with an average camera. My wife has a 4S and oh boy that sensor...

We will see in 45 minutes...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MaxCarnage:
I really couldn't care less about the Prime or whatever it's being called; but I am super damn excited about ICS. Even if it's mostly just minor GUI updates, I always get amped up about software updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tommyz2kool:
I'm getting it. Sprint is horrible where I'm at.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 063_XOBX:
I'm not. Based on the press conference Sprint isn't getting any Galaxy Nexus love so I'll stick with my NS until another Dev phone for Sprint comes along.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Klk450:
I love the look and OS but a 4.6 inch screen phone?!?!? No, I would not like to carry a tablet as a phone. The size is the deal breaker for me... If only they would of stayed with the 4' inch screen size that would of been PERFECT.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
There's very little bezel though. I believe it is about the same size as the Galaxy S II but the screen itself is obviously bigger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Klk450:
I can live with a 4.3 inch phone but honestly that thing looks bigger than the SG2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] holtenc:
all of you saying the 5MP camera is a deal breaker are fools. MPs don't make a good camera/picture. The sensor and lens do. The only thing more MPs gets you is the ability to print out larger prints. That's it. Without a good sensor a 50 MP picture will look like doggy doo.

The demo of the Galaxy Nexus camera was awesome. Just as good as the iPhone 4S camera IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HWOW:
I am. I need to be one up every one else. I've had both the Nexus one and Nexus S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zardos66:
I'm happy with my Nexus S. I want to pick it up, but I just can't justify it right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Looks like Galaxy Nexus will have same GPU as our Nexus S. Now I'm really thinking about keeping my Nexus S....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbeebe24:
I would love to pick this device up! I couldn't justify buying the nexus s when I did, but it was a great decision, so Yes! P.S. its called the Galaxy Nexus guys... no more prime talk :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MotorcycleKopp:
I like what I saw, but not enough to extend my contract out again some more with T-Mobile, given their uncertain future.

PLUS, after literally being one of the first to buy the Nexus S, and then getting disappointed with STILL not getting Google Wallet (one of the main features that I was drooling over from the get go), I think I'm going to hold off on this new Nexus phone.

I'll sit back let others be the first to bite & I'll go off of their experiences this time around
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Klk450:
This. +++++++
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
How could not want this phone. Couldn't be happier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] synaesthetic:
I'll buy one when there's a reasonably stable CyanogenMod 8 build available for it.

Until then I'll just keep using my NS. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsx19:
All I want is a ics rom on my captivate
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] corythug:
http://m.engadget.com/default/artic...andwich-for-real/&category=classic&postPage=1

Ns confirmed to get ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MotorcycleKopp:
Nice.... Hope it's true!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tytypopo:
very agree with u!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radianter:
no money ... continue use nexus s, it can be updated to 4.0 after all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IamIrene:
maybe upgrading to it

because i also addicted to sgs 2 hd lte and motorola droid razr(wait for it release gsm version)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
i'm definitely not getting the Galaxy Nexus without the micro SD slot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] longlong240:
I am planning to buy a Nexus Prime to replace my old CM7 Nexus S
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onthecouchagain:
It's tempting, but I would have to see how the pricing goes (that is, if Tmobile will sell it subsidized). I can't keep shelling out 500-600 dollars per year for the latest Nexus.

I'd also have to handle the device for myself. Although my fears of it being too big is abated somewhat, I'm still not sure how I'll like the size.

I'm very concerned with battery life too. Reviews and time will tell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icon57:
no, i think i will pass on this and wait for the note.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
the note will also be available next month

but is only on the AT&T bands
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dirtybudha:
ICS for everyone!

Does it matter what device gets the official release? The carriers jack up the OS with bloated crap. It all comes down to when do the developers get access so they can make delicious Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs for us.

Also, depends on the Prime's stats. I'm on T-Mobile and right now I'm looking at

- Amaze

- SG2

- if AT&T does buy T-Mobile (Cuz I'm OUT if they do)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
agree

i'll be more happy to see a CM9 release of ICS4 than from Samsung/HTC
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcms82:
I am a little on the fence about it. The first Nexus was ahead of its time and I believed the Nexus S was a good upgrade but less than I would have imagined. Now with the Galaxy it seems like they are behind. Everyone has a 1.2 dual core processor and other phones including the Galaxy S2 have an 8MP camera. The specs are below expectations. When I think Nexus I should be wowed and impressed. Although the good points are of course 4.0, the 720P screen, and the actual form and build quality seems to be on the right track. After all we are spending $600 on any device, we should be getting higher quality materials not plastic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cabessius:
Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy Note. HARD to decide.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voyager_s:
As i said before the Galaxy Nexus Official unveiling, until i experience ICS on my nexus S i will not be picking up any new handsets. I stand by that statement now even after the Official specs etc have been confirmed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icon57:
that sucks for me as a tmo user, any speculation about it coming tmo?

if not i might just have to go for the sgs2, kinda been holding off to wait for

the dust to settle, on all these new devices...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xManMythLegend:
Same boat.

But a little worried about "depending on demand" comment by Google and the fat theres been no announcements on pricing or carriers. Seems like THE most important detail was basically left out.

Amaze is nice but the camera shots on XDA look horrid and no hotspot means I have to wait a long long long time for a CM or other ROM to get ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gaugerer:
I'm upgrading to the Galaxy Note because big screens are good for the Web, movies, games, ebooks, maps, etc. and it is still small enough to be a mobile phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stremax:
ok, same for me...

just check at ICS video on youtube, I know, it was 22 hrs ago, but I've to go to work sometimes...

now... I WANT ONE of them delicious thing.. naaaaahhh the never have to mahe that phone so sexy...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blown 89:
The sample pictures taken by Engadget look like complete garbage. Maybe those of us complaining about the camera aren't such fools afterall ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arch3rm:
Maybe Engadget just suck at taking photos? :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] imneo1:
not upgrading.

I believe the Galaxy Nexus is not a good buy if you

already

have the Nexus S.

1. Hardware:

It has a 1.2Ghz Dual Core cpu. even though no one stated that ICS will support Dual core cpus at 4.0 it probably will at 4.x and i would rather have a 1.5 dual core or better.(intel dual/quad are not so far away)

2. OS:

It seems only a matter of weeks before getting ICS to my Nexus S so i 'm not "stuck" with the "old" android 2.3.x

3. one for Galaxy:

For me (for my use if the device) the only difference for better is the camera

which is also not a 8M pixels but a 5M. i would say this is rather low ... however the really low latency shutter is a winner so that is one for the Galaxy

4. my conclusions:

I believe (and this is only a speculation and i have no solid ground for this) that the next Google phone will probably be manufactured by Motorola with an intel CPU and a samsung hd screen

I also believe that even though the Galaxy Nexus is the first to give us ICS and is a definite leader, the next device will show much better performance with hardware acceleration,better CAMERA,CPU and GPU.

I'll wait for the next one...

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

I think the device size remains the same since there are no buttons and the screen goes on almost right to the top edge. as far as i understand the screen is now bigger the device isn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Griffrez:
I think you should have made the poll more universal. Like "Are you going to get the Galaxy Nexus?". And not asking S owners if they are going to get the GN.

Anyway, I have a SE Xperia X8. D:

I think this phone looks great. I still have to look at some thing design-wise. One thing I really hope that is changeable, is the buttons. I believe they are changeable since they are from the screen and not physical. I guess CM team will do it. Or maybe incorporated function. :)

Price cut will probably be another thing I'll wait too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donsh00tmesanta:
This might be worth Verizon but I will wait for it to come to sprint by then my upgrade should be back
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michel-slm:
From my experience with getting a Nexus One in the States and then moving to Germany, and finding out that I get much spottier 3G receptions than phones targeted at the European market (the 3G frequency bands are different, though for voice calls the N1 works well), unless I'm assured that the SG Nexus is a proper 3G world phone, I'd wait until it's offered in Germany and hopefully get a discount through a contract as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Greatbape:
The best part of the phone is the OS. The razer and note are more appealing phones spec wise. Looks wise I only give the galaxy nexus a small lead. I don't understand how the note isn't generating the buzz that the s2 and nexus has. The benchmarks and specs are way ahead of any other android phone out there by a pretty big margin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bikers:
I have NS and in my opinion I don't need to upgrade right now because beside a bigger screen and HD dysplay. I don't see any hardware upgrade that makes me go and buy it. So if I get ICS I will be pleased with my NS, because most of the upgrades are software related.

Think that in august next year I might go and buy a new phone, not sure if it will be a GS or something with a better camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kanariya:
Because it is too big as a phone.

I would not want to carry a mini tablet in my pocket pretending to be a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sl8125:
I have a N1. Had it since release date. I had a chance to pick up a NS. I didn't see much upgrade from my N1. Even the 3g technology was the same. In a way I feel glad I didn't.

Now SGN is out. I see much upgrade from my N1. Update 3g CPU GPU and screen. For me upgrade seems to be must. I love my N1 but it just seems like its time. I don't know for you NS owners. I would upgrade just for the screen CPU GPU and 3g upgrade. Then again you will get ICS too. Its tough decision. Anyways for me I will upgrade. I have that itch and must scraatxh it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kanariya:
I will be in your position next year with the next nexus. Told myself to keep the nexus s for 2 yrs when I bought it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ubnub82:
Me if they release a 16gb or 8gb thats $200.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] طوني تبولة:
I've been using a piece of junk made by RIM since I broke my Vibrant screen two weeks ago.

Now, I'm waiting for the release of the GSM version of Galaxy Nexus and I'm willing to pay the full price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wraith_17:
I'll probably buy it but I'm very happy with my S at the moment. It depends how the S runs ICS.

Does the Galaxy Nexus have a notification LED and is the band round the outside metal? (The silver bit)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slowz3r:
yes, and i believe so
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] e-dub:
i most certainly am, and i can't wait :D

eric b
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hhairplane:
If T-Mobile USA will get the phone or if I can get the GSM version (unlocked). Of course looking for reviews as well as price. $529 for 16GB would be a pretty good price point, with 32GB at $600.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slowz3r:
if thats the price point, that would fall in line with the N1 and the NS, but who knows
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheSonicEmerald:
I'm upgrading, mostly due to the fact of full Google support and huge developer backing.

Sent from my Fascinate with MIUI Gingerbread
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drzfr3shboialex:
If it's on sprint
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SomeGuyDude:
I gots me a T-Bolt, and I'm still iffy on whether it's worth waiting for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noobdeagle:
Cant wait to get rid of my galaxy S 2 and get a galaxy nexus.

price is pretty decent at only about $650AUD imported from handtec, and considering i plan on selling my sgs2 (im sure it will still be a popular model in 2 weeks).

im bored with my sgs2 lol and my regular 6month upgrade is cumming up about now-ish anyway :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KrewCial:
This, although change nexus s to htc desire. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liorra3:
dono, i will wait until he will get in to stock, and if htc will not release a phone with ics - will take the nexus.
