All they did was "take away the led features and lower cam resolution"...

Big deal! Motorola doesn't have any leds on their devices I've seen! And if they have, oh well. That's the beauty of android. There's so many of them.

And just because it's 5 MP doesn't mean it's crappy quality at all. Megapixels don't mean a thing! Look at the Epic 4G. It has a 5 MP camera but it's a thousand times better than the Evo 4g or even the Evo 3d's "8 MP" camera.

Stop whining. The galaxy nexus is gonna be a great device still. And don't blame samsung for everything. Google helps too, you know. If they wanted an 8 MP camera to go with it, I'm sure they could've asked for it.

Only thing I don't like is lack of SD Card. I think OMAP4 is slower than Exynos too.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Yeah, but if there's a 32 GB version then I'm fine.

Also, remember that ICS is optimized for dual core, so it's definitely going to be fast nonetheless.

The Galaxy Nexus isn't amazing, no. But it brings the best android OS to date with a great phone to go with it.

All Nexus devices are built exactly to Google's specs.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Until the first time you break or brick your phone and lose everything on it. With an sd card you could just pull it out and restore your backup on your replacement.
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
+1 for this, but could you use SDK and adb to manage backups and restores??
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Yes. You can also just sync your CWM and/or Titanium BU folder to your desktop.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Nice. But then Sprint gets a copy of all your data and custom ROMs when they keep your bad phone. Giant electromagnet maybe?
[Epic 4G General] NeoGauge:
A nice size rare earth magnet will do.

Notification LED on the Galaxy Nexus

According to this article, the Galaxy Nexus does have a hidden notification LED.

I know

I was so suprised when i saw it
[Epic 4G General] pvtjoker42:
magnets really have little if any effect on flash memory, so there's really no way to get in and wipe the internal storage on a broken unit, without tearing it apart and bridging the leads (not a good idea)

also a phone not having a sd slot makes it feel too much like an iphone, so i'll pass.. =P

Just picked up my Skyrocket about an hour ago. LTE here so far seems pretty sweet. Getting around 15-20mbps download AND upload with 3 bars.

Any questions? I'll probably be making a video comparison between the International GS2 and the Skyrocket soon.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] qwertyaas:
What processor is it running? Think roms can be easily ported?

The AT&T store by me has the Skyrocket for $149 and Vivid for $99. SGSII isn't being sold anymore (but $199 on the website).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Bowsa2511:
The Skyrocket has a different than that of the International, and AT&T Galaxy S II (Exynos), thus porting is not an easy task.

How is the text sharpness on the Skyrocket, and can you control it with one hand?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jbsg02:
hows battery life? Does the phone switch from 3G to LTE like the GS2 switches from UMTS to HSPA when data is needed to save battery life?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] r34p3rex:
I'm going to do a battery life comparison after a few cycles to give the battery a chance to break in :p

But to answer your question, it stays on LTE data.. unless there's no signal. No switching between UMTS and HSPA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] the2rrell:
i got my sky rocket at 12 it is now 7pm and i still have 80% left and i have been running test and downloading and using netflix i dont see this phone as a battery hog AT ALL.

i have not seen it switch out of 4glte at all so far.

even when i have one bar, i get 9mbps when i have 3 plus bars its easily gets 20 plus mbps. and i have seen it hit 44 mbps maybe a fluke who knows though.

this thing flips through the web and runs streaming movies with ease.....sometimes i dont even see the loading bar.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sklinger:
kind of an odd-ball question, and I'm not sure it will help you with your review, but what happens if you put your LTE sim in an older 3g phone? Do you still get data? I am wondering if my backup phones will be useless after I upgrade.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CraigP17:
There is no new sim. The new sims they released with the first hspa+ phones are lte ready.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
Exactly like the T-Mobile SGS2. The Skyrocket's the same phone with an LTE radio vs. DC HSPA. If you read their forum, the UI isn't as fluid and neither is the browser. There's also some issues with the display because it's the same DPI as the OSGS2 stretched over a larger screen. It also benchmarks lower than Exynos. I'm sure all the happy new Skyrocket owners will disagree. Check out the TSGS2 forum, they've had the phone longer and aren't blinded by love. The online reviews of the TSGS2 frequently compare it to the ISGS2 so you may want to check a few of those out also as they've noted the performance difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
I wont disagree but I will say I couldn't care less if it doesn't bench as high. This device is well beyond anything else I've used and still exceeds 90% of what's out there imo. I'm fine with that and I love the larger size.

I've yet to see any lag or sluggish-ness in any app so it all appears equal to me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Colton127:
Is it worth taking back the ATT GSII for the GSII Skyrocket?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
That's the question. For me, it definitely was. I'm all in favor of the larger size and LTE should be here soon in 2012 and I don't plan to upgrade again for another 18months or so. Plus I'm on a grandfathered Unlimited Data package so my scenario might be different. I'd say head into the store and do a hands-on comparison just to be safe. Either way, both devices rock!

I will miss the Dev support from gtg and Entropy and others but I'm ok with that for now. I'll still hang around here and see how much everyone is enjoying their phones... ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CraigP17:
Benchmarks and quadrant scores have meant nothing to me. The last 24 hours with the skyrocket and I've yet to hiccup. I'll take real life over "scores"

Not hating on the og gs2, I still love it. But the larger screen and lte hitting me soon is worth it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DoctorQMM:

My UOT built theme. I have the honeycomb battery, some different status bars goodies, but most importantly, the font is changed to Felt tip marker. The transitions are also different. This is built off of Gingervolt 1.1 Thanks to mtmichaelson for building the rom, thanks to beamer, haro and jam for putting up with me on IRC.

1. Go to link

2. Download

3. Drop onto sdcard

4. Reboot into recovery

5. Apply Zip

6. Wipe Dalvik and Cache

Any issues? Just ask, don't like it, reflash 1.1. This is my first time doing this, and hopefully not the last. Thank you and good luck.

That font is pretty sweet, I would love to have that in beamers revocomb theme.
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
mark,

Any plans to develop this further? There's a few minor anomalies that really aren't a big deal, but make the ocd part of my brain twitch a little bit...regardless, I feel like this is an excellent foundation that could be an awesome theme with a bit more development...I like the minimalism. Full theme changes are cool but I like the path you took here.

It sounds like an oxymoron, but I guess what I'm saying is that it'd be cooler if this was a "full theme" while maintaining the minimalism...Like a hybrid between this and Kangwich would be really cool.

On a separate note, is there a way I can get that battery icon as a standalone install? My dad doesn't really want to change his entire theme but he really likes that icon.

Make proper back ups first.

Then go here and download heimdall suite 1.1.1.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=967175

Follow everything except the part where it says "Files you are going to flash on the tab". You dont need to download these files.

Instead you will need to download GB2.3.5 Galaxy Cubed zip file and unzip it. Inside the unzipped folder are the files you are going flash over to the tab using heimdall.

Files goes to following slot in heimdall:

DO NOT PUT FILES IN THE INCORRECT SLOT(you will brick your device)

cache.rfs > Cache

dbdata.rfs > Database Data

factoryfs.rfs > FactoryFS

param.lfs > Param.lfs

recovery.bin > Recovery

zimage > Kernel(zImage)

Click Start. When its finished your tab will reboot. After boot you need to wipe data and cache. Restore your back ups.

If you're unsure how to do any of this I recommend you find someone that can help. You dont wanna brick your device.

Every time I do a ROM Manager backup, it fails with some sort of error that I cannot read because the phone reboots before you can actually read it. There are no log files as far as I can see and I would like to figure out why it won't complete the backup.

Where do I start?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosympathy:
I wouldn't use rom manager to do the backups. Boot into actual CWM and do the backups. I think cause it isn't a true recovery, cause it is bootstrapped might be why.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
It used to work...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
Personally I would start by booting into Clockwork and do a backup from there. Then the error message can be read (assuming you get one).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
No, I don't...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
So the backup was successful?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
Yes. But it NEVER is successful if ROM Manager does it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
That's why a lot of us only use Rom Manger to update Clockwork and to boot into Clockwork.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cwc3:
I came from Cynogen and was also noticing a fast drop in battery life. Things got much better after killing the battery life twice.

-> So far after 2 100% to 0% drains (Calibrating), the battery life has changed for the better.

-> I use wifi when I can. Set sleep policy to off when screen is off, in Spare Parts. I also have frozen half of my OS with Titanium Backup Pro, but I had bad battery even with this. CPU spy says Deep Sleep is working fine. I sync data manually.

My running services are:

Settings (1 Proc)

Task Manager (1 Proc 1 Serv)

Device Management (1 Proc 1 Serv)

Google Services (1 Proc 1 Serv)

Smart Keyboard (1 Proc 1 Serv)

-> Manual Screen Brightness. Using the Status bar sliding finger method if I need brighter.

-> SetCPU conservative seems to work great with Entropy

Alpha 0.3.1 Release, 12/3/2011:

Download: http://www.multiupload.com/NUV8KDF9OZ or http://dev-host.org/4up if MultiUpload never comes back

Changes:

Only one - actually include Daily Driver 12/1/2011. People who flashed 0.3.0 only need to reflash Daily Driver from my kernel thread, no need for a full flash of Hellraiser.

Alpha 0.3.0 Release, 12/1/2011:

Download: PULLED, BAD RELEASE: Use 0.3.1 instead. If you already flashed 0.3.0, flash the 12/1 release of Daily Driver

Changes:

Update to some random kernel pulled from the wrong location on my hard drive

Overwrite /system/etc/apns-conf.xml with a "known good" one

Overwrite the CSC with a "known good" one

Home button haptic fix, courtesy of LinuxBozo of Infuse Hellraiser. Thanks to amtrakcn for pointing out that LinuxBozo's fix works on our device

Alpha 0.2.2 Release, 11/10/2011:

Download: http://www.multiupload.com/C1W5S6XW0R

Changes: Update to Daily Driver 11/10/2011 kernel (disables autoroot which broke root for a bunch of people), tiny installer script cleanups.

If root is working well for you, it is not worth flashing this

If root is broken for you, I recommend installing Daily Driver 11/10 and flashing ChainsDD's latest su package (linked from the DD thread's first post now). If you flash this it will remain broken, this only fixes new installs

Alpha 0.2.1 Release, 11/08/2011:

Download http://www.multiupload.com/ORQESFHVBT

Changes: Only one, replace Nfc.apk with the correct one. Fixes NFC service force closes.

Alpha 0.2 Release, 11/07/2011:

Download - PULLED due to excessive fail. Use 0.2.1 instead!

Changes:

Should now flash without the mount workaround trick after ROMs that unmount /system

Added NFC files from the I777 and one permissions XML - These combined with a small mod to Settings.apk will allow NFC to work. Will post details for ROM devs on making these mods soon. NOTE: Right now this only supports reading tags! Google Wallet support requires a LOT more work, if even possible! (Edit: I'm fairly certain it'll only be possible in CM7 - but I think I also know what's needed for the CM7 guys to get the rest of the way there.

Initial release, 11/06/2011:

Version - Alpha 0.1

Download - http://www.multiupload.com/9RJKKSBFZ0
