In my country, there is no Nexus at all. For some reason it has never been sold here. I think that 16gb Nexus is better then no Nexus, don't you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinbad_NI:
Yes I think that a fair statement, sucks.

Can you get in a neighbouring country easily or just buy from web?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
I think that with the cloud being used more and more, things like all the pictures and videos you take all being loaded onto Google+ and with things like Google music the need for storage is reduced

So this may be the reasoning behind there being a fixed amount of memory, why the UK will not be getting 32gb is puzzling
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D3_:
This is definitely a dealbreaker for me.

Was looking forward to this, but I've already run out of space on my 16gb microsd without even putting any videos onto it :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Complete deal breaker for me. I don't want to carry around a separate music player. Not sure why they would do this. It just seems highly stupid and not offer us a choice.

Cloud storage is nowhere near ready yet. Especially as google music doesn't even work in the UK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justbabu:
I've had Google Music working since it was announced. You just need to initially sign up with a proxy server. You then do not need to keep the proxy server to use Google Music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
Do you have any links & instructions for this?

Micro SD card is much simpler though - I would have liked one or at least a 32Gb model.

I like my music in Flac format - I gues I'll have to go back to crummy mp3 when i get the nexus. Unless I can have flac in the cloud?

2011: It's a Global Economy Now

Guys, you live in the *World* not just the UK.

Get one from Germany or the Netherlands if you really must have a 32GB version... since they seem to be less expensive on the mainland it will probably cost you the same even if you spend a little more on shipping.

Don't whinge when you have options - and denying yourself one because of Samsung's decision seems a little short-sighted.

Galaxy Nexus: £490 / 32GB / SIM Free (example)

Ok now - sorry about that - do you have that page in english?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Google translate works for me on that page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
Not a good example as it doesn't ship internationally as far as I can see.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
Google music works fine in the UK, I registered months ago without any need for a proxy, I can send you an invite if you want?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
That would be great thank you - can you PM it to me, or do you need my email?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
I need your email, PM it me if you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
It's a perfect example of how much one can buy a 32GB version for.

It's one of a hundred places that sell them across those two countries, add France and make it 150. I'm sure you can find one that ships internationally, many do.

For some reason i cannot get to pm you - can you pm me & ill go to inbox & reply?

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Thanks. I was personally unsure of which countries were supposed to receive the 32GB version. It would be nice to find a place that charged in US dollars since that would probably make it much cheaper because of the current value of it. With that said I've had luck importing phones from Germany before so it's certainly a good alternative. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BANE:
That 32GB on handtech has been there since the 16GB was added from what I remember- just has always been at a value of zero.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
Yup, and unlike the 16GB version it isn't available to preorder.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trickyhenry:
I used pandapow from market to sign up to Google music. It gave me 7 days free USA ip address. Did it all on the phone too.

Plenty of people with spare invites.

I'm on the 'one plan' with three. Unlimited internet in the uk so I could cope with an 8gb version.

Try it and you'll not be bothered about 32gb..... unless you watch loads of movies or TVs ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
Or you live in any of the many areas of the country that still have terrible 3G coverage, like where I am. I have 0 bars of 3g signal in most of the places I would using the device to listen to music.

Google Music is not a suitable alternative.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Unfortunately for me unless they find a way of making google music work on the tube its not much of an option atm. Hence wanting the 32gb.

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

Yes and i have spoken to them. They have no idea if they will even get any in. The only thing they're being offered atm is the 16gb. Same with Clove/Expansys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Are you guys aware that you can tell Google Music to make certain songs available for offline playback? It's more or less like syncing to a device with storage smaller than your music collection: you tell it what to put on the device, and when you want to change your selection, go somewhere with Wifi and swap out your chosen songs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Begs the question why would i want to do that when i could just buy the 32gb version and carry it all around? I like to be able to choose from all my music wherever i am not be limited to what i selected on the day and whether i have signal. 3g coverage is not good enough to really allow me to do this atm.

A 32gb version exists its stupid not to give us the choice. So i'm not moving from my gs2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
So it's like stepping back 5 years into the past where I have to waste time whenever I leave the house deciding which out of the 1000s songs I own I would like to take with me, then the hassle of switching them about to my device, and deleting the ones that are previously cached?

That doesn't sound much different from what I had to do back when I used a N95 8GB. In the end I just never bothered using it for music. Storage space has progressed since then and it's been years since I had less than 32GB, so this would just be a massive step back.

And doing that still doesn't leave much space for anything else. My two most used apps alone use up 3-4GB (AnkiDroid and EB Pocket with the files I use through them). Might as well forget about recording much 720p video or installing the increasing number of large games. FIFA 12 is what, 1.6GB on its own?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Super Chimp:
Begs the question why Samsung keep denying the top capacity models of their Android devices to the UK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Exactly. I know of two people not buying this phone now (me and my brother in law) purely because of the lack of 32gb. Its beyond stupid...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
No, your decision to not buy is "beyond stupid".

You can get a 32GB version shipped to you. What's the issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
My contract is up, i want to buy it subsidised via a carrier but i can't. I shouldn't have to go through the hastle of ordering it sim free from abroad. It would be much easier just to give us the choice in the UK is that too much to ask?

Has anyone actually found a 32gb that will ship to the UK? The dutch shop i asked said no.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Oh, I see - you want a subsidised phone.

Then you need to complain to your carrier, not Google or Samsung. It's your carrier that's denied you your choice.

You basically (if I can say this politely) have no right to complain; if you want subsidies, you get what you're given.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Sorry but i don't see why i have no right to complain. Right now i can't get the phone in the version i want in this country either via carrier or unlocked as samsung aren't supplying the UK with any....

They should be releasing as many options as they have to consumers. Or just not announce the 32gb model.

Carrier was my first port of call but i can't get it unlocked either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Haha, not quite. If you stepped back in time 5 years, we had iPods with hard drives. It's because somewhere along the line we switched from hard drives to flash memory that everyone suddenly had less storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
If a UK importer wanted to import 32GB versions they could, it's not like Samsung don't want to sell handsets.

You're directing your frustration to the wrong place. Don't blame Samsung or Google, blame your carriers and retailers. It's a local problem, address it locally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
Fine, you can nitpick the date but it doesn't invalidate the point, which is that I've had 32GB in my phone for years now and anything less is a step back into the past.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
we're getting off topic now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
I'm not nitpicking the date, I'm pointing out that the fact we are storage capacity-constrained right now has a lot to do with the transition to flash memory. The most flash memory in a phone right now is 64GB, and as you pointed out we've had 32GB for years. A lot of people, myself included, were used to putting our entire music libraries onto our portable devices back in the hard drive days, but once we transitioned to flash memory we had to get used to picking and choosing which songs to sync. 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, it makes no difference to those of us with a hundred GB or more in music. We had to transition to the picking and choosing method. This is one of those rare cases where a step forward actually caused a step backward in something. There's been very little progress made in getting more flash memory for cheaper packed into phones, and you can hardly blame Samsung for that (well, I guess you could blame their semiconductor division for not innovating fast enough).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elenkis:
Ok, understood. But surely that just makes it even more daft that the 32GB version is not being released here. It's not like it isn't available, it just isn't being made available here, regardless of who is to blame.

Even if 32GB isn't enough (and my current 32GB device is completely full - so more would be preferable), it would still be a heck of a lot better than 16.

Anyway, if anyone finds a reputable European retailer that has confirmed they're getting the 32GB version and sells internationally, please let us know. I've not had much success.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upyouratrix:
Geez... what a bunch of cry babies! At least you know you're getting the damn phone! Try being in the US and we still don't have a release date. I want the 32GB as well, but who knows when the US will even get the phone (and I want the HSPA+ version and there's still a chance VZW has some soft of exclusive), so if I don't want to wait, I'd have to pay $800+ for only the 16GB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
It would actually cost you about $700 to import.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upyouratrix:
Still, that's a lot for only 16GB!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
That's how much a 16gb iPhone 4S would cost you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Super Chimp:
Pardon no it's not it's Samsung's choice as to which version is supplied in each country. I fail to see how you can possibly shift the blame to the retailers and networks if Samsung aren't going to supply it to them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Why do you think Samsung would withhold supply?

The only reason is that the retailers/carriers would say either:

a) there's insufficient demand; or,

b) the price point doesn't match the market demand.

Do you really think they would otherwise withhold a desirable device?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upyouratrix:
And the iPhone is way over priced! I'm fine with 500-600, but anything over that, they need to at least supply the lube!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
That is what's happening. Clove (retailer) have been told they can't have any from Samsung. This is not a question of no wanting them. ATM if 32gb GSM models do exist none are being supplied to the UK.

Same goes for Samsung Scandinavia. People have asked for the 32gb. But told they're not bringing it to that market.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lexo:
Actually its not. Do you know how much we have to pay in Europe? 700$ are around 510€ atm. If someone offers me a GN 16GB for 510€ i would instantly buy. Prices are around 530 - 600€ (which is 727 - 823$).

And by the way, using a search engine for finding best prices I cant find any shop selling 32GB version in europe.

nargh, cant post links, if u are interested, go to geizhals.at, click the european flag in the upper left and type galaxy nexus in the search bar. (website is in german)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Super Chimp:
I have heard that UK retailers have been asking for the larger capacity version, yet told it will not be supplied. So does that sound like there is a lack of demand for it on the retailers side?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nory82688:
Hey, it could be worse. You could be from the USA (we I'm from) and only have one carrier, Verizon, that actually announced they will be selling this phone. So the rest of us either have to wait another couple months or import from the UK and pay a lot more money. Put it this way, atleast you'll have the phone on your carrier at launch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyBrad81:
Thanks. That site only seems to shows prices for the 16GB version atm. Same as the UK retailers - who don't know if they're going to get it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
my music collection is around 130G, so i'm stuck choosing what to pull down to the phone either way. :) used to it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilbur-force:
Has there been any change on this stance of no 32gb version in the UK ?

3 weeks till upgrade is due ....

I want a Nexus .... but 16gb isnt enough for my music collection and misc movies/tv shows for use while travelling. Streaming is no good as most UK companies limit your monthly download ... some to as little as 500mb !

Otherwise im looking at a Razr (but the screen isnt as good) or a Sensation XE (a real chunky-monkey) or even a Galaxy S2 (which is a bit long in the tooth now)

if only the Nexus had an SD card slot :(

is there any way to get a Nexus to hook up to a memory stick via a USB adapter ???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
I'm sure I saw someone post there was 32gig versions available now, but I cant for teh life of me find the link :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Indeed. 32 GB is almost a must for me. You should be able to use an USB-OTG cable and connect storage that way, yes.

Keep looking! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otacon888:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Super Chimp:
That's a higher price than others I have seen, to say the least.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
I sent them an email to ask them just in case, since the price was a bit higher than other palces. I expect them to say it was just a mistake and adjust it though but lets hope not. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilbur-force:
Good spot !

not sure i will believe it until a UK user has a 32gb model in their hands .....

For info im wavering off the Razr due to poor camera reviews and mixed screen reviews ....

although it all hinges on this 'Pentile Display' .... do we reckon people these days are getting picky and looking too closely at their screens ? I have an original HTC Desire and Im still pretty impressed by the screen on that ..... surely ANY new screen must be better ?

The camera worries me a little more. ive seen some samples of the 1080 video recording and it didnt look great .... dont get me wrong, im not expecting an SLR on my phone but I find it nice to have a point and shoot thats always on me ....

I updated to the new netflix today and I am getting this error when attempting playback of any show. Anyone experience this?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] cmclane28:
Same here. Tried both my Samsung Galaxy S (T-Mobile Vibrant) with Android 2.2 (Bionix-v 1.3.1) and my wife's Vibrant (stock 2.2).

The error that appears when attempting to start a program is:

We are unable to start playback. Please try to restart it (13007)

After this, it appears to hang and then crash. Help!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] orlandoxpolice:
It works fine on my samsung captivate.

still no solution.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] arpruss:
I tried it with one item, got the same error 13007, and restored the previous version from backup. I am afraid that eventually they may turn off the old version and force an upgrade, but for now it works.

I did the same,with titanium,and it's working again.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] orlandoxpolice:

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] orlandoxpolice:
if no one can post the .apk of the prior version, can you tell me which version it was so i can search for it?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] orlandoxpolice:
downgraded to 1.4.1 and it works fine.

Has anyone got this working, I'm really pissed I can't get it going.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] Havek923:
OK, guys. I found a work around for Netflix app. I got it working on two different 101s. Hopefully this wasn't posted already. If it was disregard this.

First you need to have Arctools installed to get the android market. If you don't already have it on your device, here is a step by step video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWyjeMXQMOU

Make sure you follow step by step. I didn't do the format the first time, and it wouldn't install the market right.

Once you have the market on there, you need to download the old version of netflix (1.4.1). APK is in post. Download and install the app. When you first launch the app it will tell you you need to upgrade, click the OK box. The next box that shows up will be the "Complete action using" box. It should show you the two options "Market" or "search". When the box comes up, press the back arrow. This should take you to the Netflix home page, and there you go, you can stream! The reason you need the Android market is because without it the "You must upgrade" won't give you an option on how to upgrade. (see attached pics)

A couple of side notes.

1) If the "Complete actions using" box doesn't come, you need to clear the market as the default app. To do this go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Find the Market in the list and click "Clear Default". That should force the box to pop up.

2) The issue I had on mine was once I start streaming something the back button freezes the video. The only way out is the home button or wait till force close pops up. The one I did for my friend didn't do that. When the back arrow was pushed on that one the "need to upgrade box" pops up. If it does, follow the same steps from above. (Press OK, then when the select option box pops up just click the back arrow). I know the Force close is an inconvience, but hey, at least you have streaming video.

I don't know how long this will work, or if they plan on patching so you can't do this (or fix their stupid app). Hopefully this helps the people that couldn't get the app working with the multi-reboot method.

If it works for you, please make sure you hit the thanks button. :D
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] Havek923:
As of today 12/15/11, Netflix released an update for their app, and it fixed (at least for me) the 13007 error. So upgrade to the newest version and test it out!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DerangedGoose:
Id be willing to get an extended battery if it doesnt make the phone any thicker than it is at the thickest point, which is the camera. Are there any batteries out there like this? The mugen battery is absurdly huge.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
Did you somehow miss all the extended battery threads right bellow this one? Try reading through them, you'll find your answer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] razermile:
dont think so. it is only a few mm increase in size going to camera, plus you need to get new back case. so i dont think any manufacture going to go through all the trouble to increase the capacity a little but and manufactor the back case too.

also fyi, if there is demand for it the manufactor will product it. it is like pre-order. they take the money, cast mold and stuff, than sell it.

so if you can line up buyer then it is doable. my guess maybe 10,000USD to 100,000USD range.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Kabley:
Whoa.... They gonna make that mold out of gold?
