[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vzontini:
First CTIA announcement was delayed, then later an announcement without carriers or release dates. Two weeks later and till no US carrier release information. Seems odd considering the other recent "super phone" announcements came with carrier information, release dates, and pricing. Also the usual parties have not received production review units which I'd expect by now.

Even announcing puts the brakes on product purchases of competing models. Look how many people withheld purchases of smart phones the entire quarter prior to an expected iPhone release. Why announce and hold if reducing product competition was the goal?

The only thing I can think of is to steal some of Apple's iOS 5 thunder. Show that Google's Android 4.0 is moving forward too even if it's not really ready.

What do you think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Even I felt it was odd that there is no official US release announcement yet. I just hope the unlocked GSM model gets released this month. I don't mind paying the full price.

I have to admit I would not have been this anxious if I did not loose my Nexus One :(. It's hard to survive with a 5 year old phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _hyperdude:
Well, Verizon did say we're getting the Galaxy Nexus "later this year"... But that's about the only US release information to date.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
US carriers just released the old galaxy S II. They want to actually sell some and not have everyone wait 45 days for the newer / better device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I think its slightly unnerving that theres quite a bit of silence from Google when they've already announced a date for Europe.

I think its because they're trying to work with carriers this time. Whereas with the Nexus S they clearly didn't try that hard. Part of that is pretty much requiring that they get VZW (thats why they made the LTE version), and the other part is trying to push it to more carriers too.

We'll see. I'm not "worried" about it, just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
If by next week we still don't have the LTE version labels released by the FCC, then something is curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vzontini:
If that is the reason then why announce in the first place. By announcing they are in fact causing a lot of people to wait and not buy the Galaxy S2, myself included.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Normal people don't do this. Only nerds do. You're way off base if you think any normal person knows what a "Nexus" phone is, or cares enough to hold off buying a new phone when they're ready to make a purchase.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
You're not alone mate. Here in Europe we have a date but what does it mean? Is it just for the 16 GB version? If yes when does the 32GB arrive? Not a single shop here has a confirmed date when it is in store so we're in the same situation. We can just wait and search the web for infos.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Indeed. I'm constantly looking for information about the 32 GB version as I really need the space and I find it frustrating that there is no information about it. I even asked Samsung Sweden about it and they have yet to reply. They did reply to my other questions I asked them earlier about the GN but not this. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xManMythLegend:
It's pathetic. Google and Samsung screwed up a chance to take the spotlight from 4s.

Carriers ***** slapped both if them and they complied.

Nothing short of bad management to have ZERO information or street dates this far after announcement. The *few weeks* bull**** stopped being believable after gingerbread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
Agreed. I'm not going to reopen any old wounds, because they might be egocentric as another member or two posted, but this is not how you do it.

I just keep looking at that original Nexus One launch and hang my head. If those people involved could only see to now? Dear god they'd be ashamed, I would think.

The more frustrating thing is Google really is so big, the only other people that can bull them into releasing info are more corrupt and more interest centric than Google itself. The actual people that will use the device day in and out, I feel there is no one to speak for our interests.

It would be nice if we could twitter Rubin himself: A number of users, with a simple message: You should be ashamed of the GN launch. #Nexus Fail
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I wouldn't be so harsh but I ordered my device and so I would like to know where it is and when I can receive it.

The only thing which probably was a bit fail is the fact that they showed it to early.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shodney:
Don't forget it was meant to be announced a week or two before it actually was, so that would have been even earlier.

So far all we have had is either conflicting information, or none at all. Samsung confirmed yesterday that release in the UK would be on the 17th, and literally a matter of hours later retailers are saying this has now been pushed back to w/c 21st :(

They have lost quite a bit of momentum with the delays and confusion imo. My attitude has gone from "wow, I need this phone now" to "do I really need a new phone?".

I will probably still buy it though :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
I bet they're still wringing out bugs/issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gonzlobo:
The conspiracy theorist in me says there are patent issues to work out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Barkleyfan:
My guess is they will never disclose why the launch has been delayed. But I do agree, it's likely lawyers, not engineers involved in the delay.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] katamari201:
I like to feel special. If less people have it, it makes me more special. :p

I had a Samsung Wave in the U-S-of-A. I felt special. Until I started hating it for being so special (Samsung store didn't work in the US). :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
you honestly think that the Galaxy Nexus would be able to take the spotlight from the iPhone 4S?

PM me so I know where to get the drugs you're on....

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

There's probably a lot of numbers talk going on between Google and the carriers in the USA atm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slimslim:
Don't know, might be Samsung not Google. Maybe one reason they bought Motorola I bet the next Nexus will be Motorola's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alicious:
Couldn't agree more. I've seen nothing short of a dozen RAZR commercials over the past 72hrs. But not a peep about the superphone that had so much hype over it? Yeah, piss poor management. Or, Samsung doesn't want to cut into the the push for the GS2, no matter what Google or Verizon (who probably doesn't care because they're releasing a new phone every 14-16 calendar days) says so they're dragging their feet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
Makes me wonder if Apple forced a ~30 day no new phone release compete on Verizon. If so, 30 days is up in a week or so.

[ROM][ODIN] T839UVKJ2 (Sidekick 4G) Firmware [13.10.11]
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
I just came across this script "AD2SDX - AMARULLZ DATA TO SD-EXT" which is still in alpha stages it works fine on Arc. I tested today on my MIUI ROM.

WHAT IS IT??

This mod will move all Internal Memory (data) into sd-ext,

"but not like data2ext"

, this mod will maintain the performance, because it still place dalvik-cache and system application data in Internal Memory.

Here is a screenshot of my "Manage Application" :

Note: This script is still in alpha stages so users who are not sure please don't try it. It can potentially brick you SD or can cause bootloops. I don't know a method to uninstall this yet.

HOW IT WORK??

The script will do this in the first boot:

Move Mounting Internal Memory (/data) Into /sd-ext

Mount SDCard-Ext (mmcblk0p2) partition into /data

Create dalvik-cache directory in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext), and symlink it to mmcblk0p2 (/data)

Create data directory in mmcblk0p2 (/data) And symlink it into Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)

Create symlink of app, app-private, app_s and lib_s from mmcblk0p2 (/data) to Internal memory data (/sd-ext)

Create symlink for all non-symllink of Internal Memory data (/sd-ext) into mmcblk0p2 (/data)

After Initializing Setup (First Boot), reboot the system (Just reboot, don't go into recovery), the mod will automatically do this following:

Create data_s in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)

Move All mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/com.htc* and com.android* into Internal Memory data(/sd-ext)/data_s

Create symlink all files/directory from Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)/data_s/* into mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/ So the System Application Data still read into Internal memory, but rest Application Data will read Into SDCard.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] estuardo4:
A lot of people has read your thread, but nobody has answered.

I tried to use it. I have an sd-ext partition, but I don't remember if it's ext2, 3 or 4. I tried anyway and out caused a boot loop. So I'm guessing I don't have my partition formatted as ext4. I don't have access to a computer right now, so I will have to wait to test it again.

Thank you for your link.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] skyboyextreme:
can this be used with the neo ? using inteks kernel (it doesn't have ext support yet) i.e can this add the ext support to that kernel ? thanks !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Your kernel need init.d support. Then I believe it should work.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] martin132014:
how come ur internal storage is 2.2GB...:eek:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
That's what this script does it Internet storage will be your ext partition
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skyboyextreme:
because the script re-mounts the internal storage partition to sd/ext
[Xperia Arc Android Development] martin132014:
does anyone else have try this method and work...please do tell. i really like to apply it to my arc...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Me..... ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nujhum:
how did you do to make it work??

Edit: do i need just to flash the file for the recovery? with Ext4?

i got stuck on the Sony white text with Ext3...

Edit2: nevermind, it works now.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] harfot:
Is working perfect on Arc. Just have patience at boot - it's a long start up session.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nujhum:
i guess this will only works with fresh flashing...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] harfot:
No! I have even used the "old" App2SD which I just deleted in init.d and copied AD2SDX into same directory. Then reboot a after waiting it worked.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nujhum:
em, so i need to delete the init.d before flashing ad2sdx...

this is what i did and caused me to bootloop.

1. restoring my backup rom, and flash the ad2sdx.

2. did fresh install rom and flash ad2sd without rebooting.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] harfot:
No, you have to delete the contents of init.d, not the folder.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nujhum:
no, didnt delete the folder. just the specified file.

btw, it works fine now.

hm, but there is too many program keep FC, and lags, seem its getting heavier... hm. booting take minutes to load.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] martin132014:
well....i know its u first, i mean someone else....anybody....:(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] harfot:
You're right - I'll try to change from ext2 to ext4 and see what happens.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
It works fine for me :confused: I'm using Ext3 it works fine so far with MIUI ROM, I don't use lot of application only few everyday apps and lot of widgets ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Additional Info:

When I updated the ROM version I had to format the ext3 partition (Mini Partition Tool) then re-apply the script to get it to work. Otherwise I had boot loops.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hotginger:
I tried to use this with this ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1308849 and flashed it with the ZIP for recovery.

Did a fresh install, wiped everything before but when booting afterwards nothing happens... hanging on "Sony Ericson" Startup-Screen for 20 Minutes now...

What could be the problem? Should I try to install manually via ADB?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Have you formatted the ext partition? If not try to format the ext partition and try it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] swavab:
It also work finely in ext4 format..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Thanks for reporting :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hotginger:
Did not work directly from Recovery after fresh install of my ROM.

But I read that some people, also installed it without fresh install... So I booted the phone once after installing my ROM and rebooted to recovery and then I installed the .Zip... this time everything works but after second reboot I get some FCs, what could be the reason for this?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] harfot:
I have just restored my backup from before trying AD2SDX - I had "holes" in speech on phone connections. When I tried a reboot I just lost the baseband.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] swavab:

can i use this to my xperia neo on stock rooted phone? cuz i tried flashing it but still no effect.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
No.. I guess just rooted is not enough. You will need init.d support.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] adiktz:
Yes, init.d and ext4 support is also required...!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
There is a thread somewhere for init.d support for stock ROM.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
Works great on my ARC running arcronium 6.0 and Doomlord kernel v18 with ext4 paritition.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fatimarvin_15:
to nakchea - itried inteks kernel with init.d and ext support but when i installed AD2SDX it boot loops only... any suggestions? thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] YemenHero:
Generally it works fine, after fresh rom install, installed via recovery.. and got 4GB as internal memory! but there's one major problem!! many reported the same issue.. LOOSING THE BASEBAND!! i had to reflash the baseband eachtime i restrart the device.. we hope from any of the top ranked developers to work this problem..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
Hmm... here was what I'm doing:

Before applied the tweak:

- My rom is arcronium 6.0

- Doomlord kernel v18

Then:

- I copied everything out from sdcard and delete every partition on the card.

- Repartition to 1. Fat32, 2. Ext4

(In my case I have 32GB class 4, I gave ext4 8GB and the rest is Fat32)

Note that the order of partition must be fat32 first)

- Download file 40a2sdx using root explorer to init.d and give permission rwxrwxrwx.

- Reboot the phone. 1st startup will take a while depend on the size of your data. (In my case my data was 1GB, it took 2-3 min to boot up during the 1st startup)

- Second startup will be normal.

Note: init.d and ext support are crucial, without which the mod will not work. I recommend using Doomlord kernel. If problem persists, consider using the mod with fresh install of the rom.

I hope this helps u.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
I don't face with this problem. It works just fine.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] adiktz:
I too face that loosing the baseband kind of problem and sometimes it says error searching network...!!! But problem solves after a reboot...!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fatimarvin_15:
After hours of experimenting... finally...

AD2SDX on XPERIA NEO

thanks nakchea for informing me about init.d support

thanks for adiktz for informing me about ext4 as requirement

and thanks to adridu59 for answering many of my questions

heres the port of this MOD for NEO.

REQUIREMENTS:

-Bootloader Unlocked

-Inteks Kernel

-Stock .42 rom of xperia NEO

-Root

-Busybox

-CWM

-sd card with 2 partition (for normal use of sd and the other one is EXT4)

-make sure u put this mod on your sd card after making 2 partition

-remove your sim card (ill xplain later why [Note1])

PART 1

ok heres what i did

I have my .42 rom, i installed root, busybox & cwm here.

I reboot my phone to CWM recovery

clear/format data, cache, sd-ext

Then i make a Backup of rom (its a fresh rom now cuz u format data, cache, sd-ext)

Then i format system after backup (so everything is clear now - system, data, cache, sd-ext)

PART 2

Then restore/flash your rom again using CWM.

After restore dont exit CWM without flashing this mod. (You should flash your clean rom and this mod on the cmw recovery at the same time)

PART 3

then boot.

first boot will bootloop 4-7 times then it will boot normaly. [Note1]

restart phone. it will bootloop again 4-7 times.

then look at your appmanager.

you'll see its working...

you can now insert your sim

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Note1] ok heres why we need to remove sim card

At the moment after normal booting

"WITH" sim card - boots into this (look at first picture below) without no progress, you will stuck in here.

To prevent this we must remove sim

"WITHOUT" sim this will happen again but only for 3-5 minutes then it will bring you to your homescreen

after 2 sucessive boot, you can now insert your sim and everyting is normal now with this mod

look at the second picture for the result...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gabimx:
does this work on cm7?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
Ur picture show Link2sd app. Hope you don't use it with this mode. Otherwise they will conflict each other.

Edit: you're welcome. I'm glad I helped.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] blitzkrieg_:
Is it necessary that the boot loader has to be unlocked???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xperseus:
I think it's not necessary if you can make your stock rom support init.d and ext4 partition. The point is, as long as your rom support init.d and ext partition, it doesn't matter if your phone has locked or unlocked bootloader.

There is a thread in this development section that tells you how to get init.d support. (But m not sure for ext partition)

Note: whether locked or unlocked bootloader, u will need root access.

2.they say it has an issue with titanium backup,which is when restoring com.android data,it is a big thing for me cause i always backup/restore my com.android.provider.telephony data(sms/mms),so what do i need to do?im thinking about clean flash cm9,reboot into system,restore data using titanium backup,then reboot recovery,apply mod,finally reboot into system?is it right?

Because most of us are using class4 till now
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tajimura:
In fact such mods work best with Sandisk class 4. Can't give the exact link now, but it was discussed in HTC Desire forums about half an year ago. If you use sdcard from another vendor then class 6 is better than 4, but Sandisk's class 4 is best of all.
