I agree with you and also think that the whole thing is ironic since all sense roms and many other roms built on xda break rules also. but whatever... as JieeHD said, it doesn't adhere to GNU/GPL guidelines, but it isn't actually illegal to not follow those particular guidelines. It IS however not allowed and xda is big on gpl compliance, as it should be I suppose, so this all makes sense.

People get way too involved in defending the (imho rather flawed) GNU/GPL guidelines.

This is one reason why I only release software under much more open licenses. GNU/GPL is designed with good sharing values in mind but it unfortunately has proven to bring out a rather militant side of some people - which is the exact opposite to the values that brought together those of us who were the original developers of open source software back in the 80s.

The rules and regulations were originally added to prevent people from using open source code in commercial apps without giving full credit and asking permission first.

And the accusation was that Feeyo was doing that same thing - using open source code and yet not giving credit where it was due and claiming it was his own code in his kernel.

I have seen evidence showing both sides of the matter, both showing the code to be the same in parts, and yet the evidence has shown at times other devs to have written it before feeyo, and yet in other examples it has shown feeyo to have written it first before other devs.

He has stood his ground consistently as have the accusers in this case.

The problem, however, is that the guidelines of the gpl say that the developer must provide full source code when asked. So when feeyo has refused to do so, the assumption has always been that he has been stealing code or claiming other's code as his own.

When in fact, all he has ever been proven to have done that I'm aware of is not providing code when asked to do so. edit: and yes, this does break gpl guidelines... but it's always been considered a rather small infraction other than with Feeyo for some reason.

In the end he did change everything to comply and he has complied for the better part of a year now.

Since complying is all that is required to be free and legal again according to the gnu/gpl regulations, his roms and code should be fine to post here now.

however as a member he himself is still banned afaik. but if someone posts his work it should be just fine, and as noted other forums have no issue with his work and actually welcome it.

I was really involved in the whole thing and a friend of one of the people who was involved in feeyo being accused in the first case. But I also like feeyo and have a lot of respect for him as he has made great roms and his support is second to none.

Just adding my 3 cents worth ;-)

Dude, you a are in danger now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davrave:
Hectic! Don, you and others, have mentioned "the one of whom we shall not speak" again.

Just to clarify, are we at least allowed to talk about him? This sounds more and more like the law that the S.A. Government is trying to pass through our Parliament today. Objectors will be wearing black armbands in protest. The Govt. don't want to include a "Public Interest clause" ( relating to the Secrecy Act)in our constitution. This means that even if Govt. members have done something that can adversely affect the public at large, you can get a jail sentence of up to 15 years for even being in possession of such information, never mind divulging this information to anyone.

Makes you think Huh?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Okay... IF it is so that Feeyo now is publishing his code and all that... then I think we should do this the proper way and ASK the mods if they can remove the ban. As far I know It's just a temporary ban. So if you do this and the mods let him in, I'll never speak of "the unmentiomable" again

sent with love from me to you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jsplace:
Unfortunately it was a permaban after Feeyo broke rules by creating another acount whilst being temp banned.

I wish it were different, Feeyo is a great dev and for most of us has had a positive impact on the whole hero experience.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
and it's always exciting when he's here LoL.... ah, I miss the drama...
[Galaxy S II General] logged101:
So overnight my battery goes from 100% to 85%, in a matter of 6hours.

Here are my wakelocks
[Galaxy S II General] convolution:
dafuq is with the dead links of the pics and the tags?
[Galaxy S II General] logged101:
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Ive edited the post and fixed the pics.

Edit: Wtf at tags, not cool mods.
[Galaxy S II General] logged101:
No1 is going to help?
[Galaxy S II General] grgsiocl:
My friend dont worry it is not a major problem and it is in our hands to make the things perfect

uninstall the battery widgets and install fancy widgets. The BW is drainning your battery and still there is no fix for it. In the background backup is also running hence go to settings->privacy->disable the backup & restore.

Switchoff the phone fully and plug the charger in and once it reaches 100% mark( make sure you check continously), unplug the charger and remove the battery and wait for 10 minutes.

Then put the battery back on and press volumeup , home and power together to enter in to recovery mode and clear the battery stats and power on the device. Once the device is on, the battery should be on 100%.

USe the phone normally and do the charge and discharge normal.

I was facing the same problem, no this way i resolved my issues and right now my battery is on 9% with the following details

Phone: 22hrs 18mins

display : 3hrs 46mins

voice calls: 2hrs 24mins

wifi: 15mins

bluetooth: 50secs

If you still face the problem PM me

Note: Use sync (Google services) only when required for this you can use widgetosoid from the market or else make sync once in 1 hour. Your problem will be resolved
[TouchPad General] BrandonBlight:
Woke up this morning, unplugged my touchpad, and turned it on. And it's stuck in a bootloop. I've been using it daily since release and updated to the latest alpha at its release.

It's stuck on the cm7 boot animation.

I've rebooted it multiple times. No luck.

Swifted from my Atrix.
[TouchPad General] tigerdavid:
Have the same problem right now again, last time I got this I had to reinstall the system and it was so frustrating....
[TouchPad General] itisrd:
I'm on the same situation today for no reason ..It was working fine for over a month. Any way to solve this without reinstall ... I know alpha 3 is out so just want to update... if I'm on webos how can I get to "sd card" folder to put alpha 3 file for upgrade ?

Never mind, fixed it... transfer alpha 3 file in to root of touchpad from webos and reboot to cwm , wiped cache and dalvik cache, install zip file from sd card ..choose the latest alpha 3 zip file .. then install and reboot.. that took care of cm7 endless bootloop and got alpha 3 installed as well....
[TouchPad General] Nburnes:
Mentioning you have a bootloop and not giving the output of logcat helps no one.
[TouchPad General] BrandonBlight:
Total wipe/reinstalled to fix it, right before alpha3 got released, kinda pissed at the timing.

Swifted from my Atrix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PeterHook:
This is what I got 20 min ago:

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

First stock has arrived!

All orders have stock reserved

We start shipping tomorrow, but there are over 800 to ship so please be patient for the tracking number

Regards

Sales Team

Clove Technology

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

I ordered mine this morning and if I understand this email correctly I'm in a first batch.

Update 21/11:

They started shipping both local and international orders.

Update 23/11:

People who received their phones from Clove confirm the existance of Ghost Volume issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmace:
Gum Mobile got theirs in today too, they've shipped theirs tonight though for delivery tomorrow
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liorra3:
damn, 800 units... but yep one of them is mane!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Yeah, and one of them is mine :-) Hope mine gets to be posted tomorrow, so I can probably get it on Wednesday, if Fedex doesn't f0k something up :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
They might as well send them back. Stupid volume bug
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Love_Velvet:
This is the email i got:

I just hope it works when it gets here:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
I ordered mine on the 22 October - I haven't recived that email?

If anyone should be in the first batch...It's me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
They said they will test the handsets before dispatch, they don't want to dispatch handsets that will be returned a week later, causing an epic paperwork.

Of course they might not discover the bug and ship faulty devices regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PeterHook:
Everyone who preordered before me will be in first batch. This email was not an official announcement. It was a reply to my order verification (I'm ordering from US for my t-mobile network). Yours should be one of the first to ship.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clancy_s:
I was wondering about that - 800 devices to charge and force in to 2g data mode before sending them out :eek:

Do you think they'll actually do it and if yes how many will pass???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
They will test some devices... Of course not all. They said in their blog that samsung has sent them some never patch...believe it or not.. I won't until i have tested mine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
No they will not test all. They said they will test a few today because they don't want to ship faulty handsets that will only be returned some time later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcgon1979:
This is promising that Clove they are aware of the issue and have been in contact with Samsung...

We now have the Samsung Galaxy Nexus in stock at Clove Technology and will begin shipping orders tomorrow. We are aware that some users that purchased handsets from other outlets last week have reported problems with the volume changing erratically. We have been in touch with Samsung regarding this and have been told that our stock has since been through an additional quality control check and should not have the problem. Nonetheless, we will also be testing several handsets ourselves to check for the problem this evening.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikosrs4:
800x500£=400000£!! :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lootes:
Take it with a grain of salt but Handtec who also received their shipment today has tweeted that they were unable to reproduce this issue. Here is to hoping.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PeterHook:
FSM damn it! I waited two years for this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kindiboy:
Yea Handtec told me that they actually are receiving the phones from the same original batch clove is getting, without me even mentioning clove, am guessing Clove and Handtec are actually working together on this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atomic_dude:
come on Clove, send it already :-) not concerned about the volume bug at all, this puppy wil only use 3G! No chance to see it by weekend, hope for Monday though....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clancy_s:
nevermind, temporary failure of the visual cortex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atomic_dude:
So, we should see some lucky ones being issued tracking numbers in a few hours! Please do let us know when that happens, oh you clove chosen ones :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marfapr:
they lost my tracking number, that's why the didn't e-mail me about dispatch

ordered 17th nov
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
No volume issues so far. Touch wood all will be well.

Worked out well i couldn't get pn fron p4u with all the problems their handsets are having.

I still detest p4u
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Did you have luck? Mine has been in Stockholm since morning and has not moved since. It seems it won't be delivered before Monday afterall. Won't be using FedEx in the future, never had this problem with DHL and UPS (I would have picked DHL at first, but when I ordered it was not an option yet).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mils69:
GRRRRRR

Just received this from Clove

Up until today we had been expecting to receive more stock of the Galaxy Nexus on Friday 25th November, but unfortunately the stock has now been delayed. We now expect stock to arrive at the beginning of next week and we expect to ship orders on Tuesday 29th and Wednesday 30th November.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balenax:
yes just got the email too... pretty funny since the 1st of December is the national day here in Romania and nobody is working, this means one more week of waiting for me. At least I hope the delay means some trouble free units :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccampbell1:
Looks like mine has been stuck at FedEd Feltham UK location since 23rd - 24th now. Fedex page still says schedule for Chicago delivery Friday 25th by 10:30 AM. Unless its going on some direct UK->Chicago flight today (or Fedex tracking isnt being updated properly) I don't see how I will get it by Friday!

Oh well! It's Thanksgiving in the US today, so I will probably be asleep from eating too much anyway, and may forget alllll about my Galaxy Nexus - NOT!! :-D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Same thing. Has been in stockholm since 11.07. Last update 15.00 in transit stockholm. Well tomorrow then...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balto:
Mine sat in UK for almost a full day. It is on a plane now headed o the main sort facility in Memphis, Tennessee which it will then be sent to me in Toronto for tomorrow. T here should be no issue getting you phone in Chicago tomorrow as long as it is on its way to KY now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Yeah. I don't think I'll be using FedEx in the future, I've ordered from Amazon with courier a lot and they use UPS and DHL mostly and they always deliver in two days to anywhere in Europe for the same price we paid for this delivery.

Oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kakster:
I live there, Feltham is just minutes away from Heathrow airport, and all the major courriers have depots there.

At least yours is on it's way, looks like i'll be waiting for their next batch to arrive next week.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwazi:
Mine left UK early this morning, probably headed to memphis as well. But I just realized something... today is american thanksgiving, doesn't that mean the facility isn't open?

I was hoping to get the phone tomorrow (in Toronto) but it looks unlikely now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balto:
Yes the sort facility will be open. FedEx called me this morning to clear my package and she said there will be no issues with delivery tomorrow. The package is set to arrive in Toronto tomorrow morning.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Still in Stockholm...no updates after the yesterday afternoon.

I really hope that they have transferred the truck to Finland in night...I would really need the phone for the weekend.

One thing I noticed is that now that the estimated delivery date and time has passed, there is no new info about the estimated delivery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I know. I am just as confused. FedEx courier is slower than I have ever witnessed. Their customer support told me that Clove is lying about 1-2 day delivery though in the service they are using.

I told Clove about it and they did not care. DHL would have been better.

I have two theories why it might be stuck, a positive one and a negative one.

Positive:

It might be delivered on a ship which usually is an overnight delivery to Finland (and Tallinn) directly. Counter to this is that I expected the location to change if it is a on a ship, then I expected for the tracker to update to Port of Stockholm, rather than the airport. Ships usually arrive 10AM in that overnight delivery in Tallinn (and something similar in Helsinki I believe), so we should know by noon.

Negative:

It may be that they are waiting for shipments to 'fill up' in Stockholm. As Clove did not use the 'actual' priority courier, instead the economy one, this might be true and the shipment comes whenever the trucks fill up in Stockholm and then arrive by a plane to Helsinki and Tallinn. I was thinking this was the case yesterday, but our afternoon flights (both passenger and cargo) from that same airport to Tallinn did not make any changes to the tracker.

They will definitely use either a ship or a plane though, otherwise delivering it to Stockholm makes no sense. Had it been land delivery the trucks would have been moving from Paris or Copenhagen (where it was at some point, in Kastrup airport).

As for your estimated delivery not changing, you can try getting more information from FedEx support. When I contacted them they told me 'everything is in order' because the estimated delivery still shows Monday. But in your case the delivery date is come and gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Well yeah...but the statement that Clove is lying...well why then does their system tell the same thing :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malliktajmahal:
Can I order From India

Hi all,

sorry to Interrupt. This is Mallik from India. Initially I thought of ordering Galaxy Nexus from India through clove , due to Volume bug issue I have cancelled/hold my decision.:(

Can someone please tell me, is it safe to order now.?..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
There is a software patch coming to fix this problem in form of android 4.0.2

---------- Post added at 07:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 AM ----------

I checked my last order from Clove, and the tracking info.

The last time, the package went from Kastrup,DK straight to Helsinki, no pit-stop to stockholm. Well, it seems the routes differ from time to time.

But this time the route wasn't the best :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Well, apparently at least the estimation on your order wasn't true :)

I called FedEx partner in Estonia and also talked to customer support in FedEx UK and they both said that the service that my package is using is not a 1-2 day delivery within Europe.

(also, I updated my previous reply if you didn't read it yet, about some theories)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atomic_dude:
Got mine in Adelaide today 16:00 local time. Ordered November 7. Delivered by DHL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Ok, now I'm getting worried..

I contacted Fedex through their chat, here is the transcript:

EDIT: Got a reply from a finnish Fedex rep to my email, that my phone has landed to finland and will be delivered today. PHEW!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
And now the phone is my hands :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
It arrived in Tallinn too, quite a surprise, since tracker was not updated until it was delivered for some reason! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balto:
I think there is an issue with the tracker. Mine hasnt shown updates since late last night.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccampbell1:
Well, I'm guessing there's no chance of receiving my Galaxy Nexus today - saw last night it had arrived in the US (Newark, NJ) and so hoped to wake up this morning to find it had made its way to Chicago and was out for delivery.

Unfortunately it says "Clearance Delay." In other words, customs stopped it for some reason. I've heard stories of it taking anywhere from 1-2 days to a week (plus horror stories of a month or more) to make it through this. I heard that in some cases Fedex needs confirmation of my identity (to provide to customs) so I'll call them in a couple of hours (too early in the morning right now) and see what the deal is. Hopefully it can get through this quickly. Bah, humbug!!

Fedex site STILL says expected delivery today, 10:30AM. Ummmm....no. :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balto:
I am in the same boat, it hit Newark and then sat there all night. Just departed Newark at 9am not sure where it is going hopefully to Canada where it will probably sit in customs. Looks like it is Monday for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwazi:
Damn, mine arrived today :) been playing with it for like 2 hours now :)

Surprisingly it didn't go through Newark, went from London straight to Hamilton. it shipped on Wednesday (via DHL).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SBS_:
Hmm not sure I want to use FedEx again for shipping to Norway.

First off my phone went to London - France - Sweden - France - Denmark - Norway. Nice detour to Sweden there FedEx...

Then I find out they don't have a presence in Norway at all, so after it arrived here they just handed it over to the Norway Post, so now I don't have a tracking number and will most likely get it sometime next week.

Never had any issues with DHL or others.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2dorr:
Today I got the phone from Clove. Everything is fine, I don't have the volume bug, I guess I have a good signal here, 3G, H, H+. The volume when I talk to someone is very high, compared to SGS II. I think the phone is miles away from any other phone on the market. Not because the phone only, but because of ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwazi:
Damn that sucks.. but its probably just a tracking glitch. I've seen that happen before.. it has to be a tracking glitch because I once had a package that went across the border through customs like 5 times. There's no way that would ever happen (US/Canada customs is like hell.. they would have probably charged me for each entry just to annoy me).

Anyways.. it's worth a shot, but try putting your fedex tracking number into the norway tracking system. When situations like this happens, often the local courier just uses the outside tracking # in their system and continue reporting. I do it a lot by entering USPS tracking numbers in Canada Post's website.. and I get some detailed info after it crosses the border (whereas USPS just says "entered Canada")
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SBS_:
You're probably right on the first one and definatetly right on the second one. I guess I'm just raging a bit I don't get to play with my new phone this weeked when I actually have time for it. Guess I have to stick with my old SGS2 for 2 more days ;)

Thanks for the tip on the tracking number, I should've tried that earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] balto:
Totally should have used DHL instead of Fedex... Live and learn.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KrazyDesi22:
How much CAD did your purchase come to? Was there any additional customs fees you had to pay when it arrived?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwazi:
No problem, I'm glad it worked for you. And I totally know that feeling :(

well 445 GBP to CDN (~720), but with the rape fees from the credit card company.. thats about ~745 CDN.

And yea, customs charges as well. $98.xx. only a $7.50 brokerage fee (yay for DHL.. its the main reason I avoided FedEx)

So yea, close to ~$850 cdn. I'm one crazy SOB eh? :) at least I'm super happy with the device!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KrazyDesi22:
ouch, that has me reconsidering. I thought it would be closer to 750 CAD. I may as well wait to pick up a bell/virgin device for $649.99 + Taxes :-(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwazi:
yea they wouldnt let me pre-order. And somehow I expect them to delay the launch. That and I feel good that my money didn't go to Bell :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hyoo82:
I pre-ordered from Virgin mobile

CAD 649+taxes comes to about 734.xx. Then add $50 for the month to month plan. your looking @ $784 +/- $8 (my math wasn't exact) CAD in total expenses.
