Thanks. I can see, it is in Download mode. But from where I can get the ROM files for Pakistan region. As my current froyo was also having Urdu language.

I have got ODIN. Now need my regional firmware files.

Any idea?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fileboy22:
Just wondering for those of you who have the device already, have you guys found some neat features/tricks using 4.0 that haven't been documented or heavily advertised?

I would love to make a list of these features for other users to explore...

Lets get this started :D

List:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fileboy22:
Reserved........
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gambiting:
I know it's documented,but it was still a surprise to me - you can now finally delete apps straight from the app drawer, by dragging them just as if you were going to place them on the desktop,but then putting them in the recycle bin on the top.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
No affiliation with apple. Or siri.

Sent from my samsung gt i9250 which is in the wrong country.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knilux:
Nobody's talking about the search app. It's way better than the one in Gingerbread. Much easier to find stuff in your phone : music, app, sms, docs, etc. The old one was returning web search suggestion in 90% of the result... useless.

Search in browser let's you edit suggestion if you want to add something to it. But we lost popular web site suggestion :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RaymondScrott:
Just read it on Pocketnow but you can make folders in the favourites bar. Apologies if obvious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyCr15:
When in the stock browser and you change orientation, tap the screen to make it rotate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mkropf:
You can do that on stock fascinate. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
which runs TouchWiz, so it's not stock Android :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] footboydog:
Rotate the phone to the right whilst in any stock app (so the speaker grill and front camera are on the right). Notice that the back, home and task switch buttons have moved to the top of the screen so that they stay on the right.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackDino:
When using an ics app hold down on an icon in the action bar to get a description of what it does
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] appelflap:
Not heavily advertised, but it should be:

The quick control in the browser. Almost the same as on honeycomb. Activate it in the labs settings of the browser. Love it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
NICE find! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grizlore:
This is known about, however you said undocumented and I haven't a single document for the Nexus/ICS apart from on one which came with the phone,telling me how to fix the battery.

Hold the volume down and power key, and you take a screen capture. Which is very handy on occasions
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mekrel:
If you tap the volume button which makes the volume bar appear, you can then press the icon to the left of the volume bar and it toggles between ring and vibrate. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grizlore:
In settings/about phone. Tap repeatedly on the android version number (4.0...) then a little android appears. Keep ur finger on it and it grows into a screen animation.

If u didn't know about this,I guess u r now thinking this is a joke. Or is it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stea1thmode:
Need someone to test; try swiping the web pages up/down using 2 fingers

, is it a feature or a glitch?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
what's supposed to happen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2phones:
You can use the front facing camera to record in 720p hd
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stea1thmode:
I thought it scrolled page by page. try by flicking with 2 fingers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FatherD:
That is sweet! B)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ianm:
Not seen it mentioned elsewhere, but if you double tap while recording a video you can take a still image.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrisn0123:
Screenshot built in is awesome!

Hold power + vol down :)

You can call 911 and have a disco when the cops, ambulances and firetrucks show up.

Any chance of some instructions :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
Swipe from the left / right, hold your finger and select the Menu icon
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilbur-force:
Cheers. Simple when you know how :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] farfromovin:
Quick Control along with full screen make the ICS browser the best mobile experience I've used so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Apparently when someone calls you it shows the location of the area code, but I haven't been able to check this out as no-one has called me from a landline..

Oh and also you can force hardware acceleration in apps by enabling it in the developer settings section. Apps like Twitter become buttery smooth. Some apps like Your Orange break though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Not particularly anything useful, but I think I will add a "feature" that I love. I love how the notification light is a throwback to the trackball on the N1- similar relative placement and pulse frequency; it adds a nice tie between "then" and "now." Small evidence of a Nexus "brand" I guess...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] steevo1:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] C64c:
I like these hidden novelty's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
The front camera records at 720p... which was not advertised
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
Can you specify that? Don't know what you mean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmace:
pull down the notification bar and there's a link to settings so no icon needed on any homescreen

swipe anything in the notification bar to the right to remove it, so if you get an email and don't want the notification there but you want the other things, rather than clearing the whole lot, just swipe emails away.

The 1st post really should be updated, some of the things in there are excellent, loving the front 720p and the double tapping video to take a photo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RaymondScrott:
@fileboy22. Presumably the second post that you "reserved" was to enable you to put together a consolidated list of the hidden features? If so it would be very useful.#

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyCr15:
You're in stock ROM, stock browser? Has worked for others... (and me of course)

Does it rotate automatically itself, or it doesn't rotate at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] braingravyuk:
If you install launcherpro onto ICS and then create a new activity (long press on the home screen) and go to launcher and then select rocket launcher, you can run an alternative app tray created by Google but hidden away in ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hamoor:
In ics optimized apps like gmail or maps, (lets say maps here)

You can long press on any of the icons below like the layers icon and and it will tell you the purpose of the icon.

How about using the first post to summarize?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clearym:
In Settings -> Security -> Owner Info

You can enter (obviously) your owner info to display on the lock screen, or you can do what I did which is, "In case of emergency please call: (123) 456-7890"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] appelflap:
Lol, never knew that. That's why a tip thread is so useful :)

I agree with hfm, OP should update the first post and maybe it could become a sticky.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bstdnator:
Coming from an Asus Transformer owner, the Labs Quick control for honeycomb is delightful, but for ICS on my Nexus i'm stuck using the default non-labs mode as i've yet to find a way to close an open tab, any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrisjaffe:
Swipe it away. Just like the notifications and the apps in the recent programs manager.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyCr15:
I know OP seems to have vanished... but I'm going to make a video version of all these tips in the morning. Any more to add?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webvictim:
It's true. I got a call from a Swansea number the other day and it came up as such.

If you get a call, the phone shows the town it is coming from (UK area code). Nice little touch.

It's probably widely known for majority but I'll give it a try. In maps, if you want to zoom out, instead of pinching out you can just tap with two fingers on the screen and it's gonna zoom out

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bstdnator:
Ahhh! I never tried clicking the "Tab" quickkey before, didnt know it'd get the non-labs tab list, brilliant, simply brilliant!

Now if only i could get my Contacts birthdays displayed on the google calendar, and the Outlook sync (hotmail) calendar to actually display the things its supposed to be synching i would probably go blind with happiness.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] steevo1:
I am going to enable and give it a try. Are you noticing if your battery is "taking a hit" with this acceleration enabled?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudkipz:
Is there a way to turn off the LED light when you get a new message?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Perhaps in the system settings, but I don't know it on MIUI. if you install the wimax notifier app from here on xda, there is an option to disable it. Also if you use handcent, I think you can disable it as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudkipz:
yeah that's what im trying to use but there's no option to turn off the main led.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Do you mean the left led, and not the right [wimax] led?

My left led never even comes on anymore, aside from charging and the low battery light.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudkipz:
yeah i meant to say the right led. im trying to use the wimax notifier app but it wont work unless i turn off the led notifications for the default message app.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
So if you click disable, it won't work?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
I'm guessing he doesn't know where to go in the settings to turn off the left led to use the Wimax notifier app
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Its possible...

- open the app

- select the first option to select the led color

- scroll to the very top to select disable
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudkipz:
:mad: i cant seem to word this right. i want to use the wimax notifier app but it wont change due to the default setting the messaging app has it on. like in sense roms theres a setting to turn off JUST the led. but i cant seem to find that option in miui.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
So if you use both apps in conjunction, it still doesn't work? i think I understand, and there should be a work around.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Doesn't sound right. I use it without that problem
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bfitz26:
so i have been having some bad battery issues lately even with having two batteries i am a moderatly heavy user but would like to get a bit better battery life i believe it is due to my kernal currently i am running kernal version 2.6.35.7-ep1 wondering if there is a better kernal out there and if someone can shoot me a link or a attachment thanks..

Well, as the topic says.. I've downloaded an language pack in .zip format (.XML within) I've tried to flash it in recovery, but it says "Installation aborded" Why?

[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
have you tried manually mounting system and/or data within recovery?
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
some language packs are version specific. like if the lang pack was made for miui 1.11.11 it cannot be flashed in miui 1.11.25.

Well, i downloaded the pack from http://crowdin.net/project/miui-rom-translation - Is that one too old? If so, what can I do to get it working?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
So i'm in the market for a nice 7 inch tablet, and obviously a galaxy tab is going to be a forethought in my mind... I've done some reading on various tablets so far, and what i've read about the tab, it seems there are some versions that have more development on them.

My question is what is the best model of tab to be hunting for? verizon tab, att, sprint? and i guess a model number could be helpful. Is the wifi only version one even worth considering? if so what model?

i really would hate to have to hunt for a carrier specific tab, since those seem to go for ~500 easy, which is way too much for a 7" tablet imo.

thanks for any info on this subject.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_Low:
Depends which carrier you are on, if you want to use mobile data. T-Mobile is not compatible with at&t and sprint is cdma.

Some nice deals out there if you know what you want and are patient. Mine was under $200
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
what version is it? and what model?

are you able to update it to later versions (2.3?) and use custom roms?

i dont care about any specific carrier in general, but i would like to be able to connect a tab to an ad-hoc network.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafaeker19:
the original galaxy tab model is GT-P1000, it have android 2.3.3, can be upgraded to 2.3.7 trought cm7 or BOCA roms, and theres an android 4.0 port unofficial but very smooth.

ROMS:

MIUI

BOCA

Overcome

CM7

and many others, check the development section.

pd: sorry my english. :P
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_Low:
My particular tab is a p1000r - tied to Roger's up in Canada. Basically the same as the AT&T model.

Spend some time on the forums and hit up Wikipedia for the differences.
[Nexus One General] addam360:
Now that the N1 is 'obsolete' and ICS isn't coming I feel as though it may be time to move on.

This may take a while though as I effectively have no money and the money I get from the N1 is the majority of what I can spend.

Basically the deal is that I can get either £85 quickly from a recycle site or no more than £100-120 selling my N1 and from Ebay I have found that for this with some lucky bidding I could get a nice used LG Optimus 2X or Motorola Atrix.

Not exactly the best N1 replacements but both have Tegra 2 and are good for the money.

This will be a depressing upgrade and I'll miss this forum but its time for my N1 to go.:(

If anyone in the UK has any hints for getting a cheapish replacement with better hardware please tell me. The limit is £120 really, thats all I can spare.

If I don't post between now and then, goodbye and thanks everyone!:D
[Nexus One General] olm3ca:
Are you completely missing the thread on ICS AOSP going on over on the dev forum? They are making huge progress. In less than a week we'll have a strong working build... don't give up on the N1 yet!
[Nexus One General] addam360:
Yeah sorry I have seen that thread and yes it's brilliant but I just seriously want to move onto another phone now. I've just suffered too many problems from the N1 and being denied ICS kinda tipped me over the edge.

In all fairness though it could take some time to get a replacement this way so I will be keeping involved with that thread.:D

But the N1 just isn't for me anymore...
[Nexus One General] olm3ca:
If it were me then and I wanted to upgrade within that price range, the Atrix is a good choice... However, I would rather find a Nexus S though to upgrade to ICS sooner. The devs for that phone are making huge progress and it is now fully functional. I bet you could find a good condition used NS if you're interested, but know in advance that the specs aren't really that different than the N1. Well, good luck anyway...
[Nexus One General] auiotour:
I am in the same boat the denial of ICS for the n1, kinda set me off, only reason I am looking for a new phone. Luckily for my n1 I can't afford a new one for a while, and texasice and many other brilliant people have been working on a good soon to be fully stable and functioning build. I haven't tried alpha 8 or 9 yet. But was quite happy with them.

Problem is, I have yet to find a phone that I can even say is remotely a good replacement. I wanted the T-Mobile G2 to be it, but it was just way to big. Love the having the keyboard though.

But I know how you feel. I don't think anyone would buy mine, it slid down a roof screen down, and scratched up, a corner of the glass is broke (in an non multi-touch functioning area).

Best of luck to you in finding a home. Hopefully someone here would love to buy it. I would for my girlfriend, as she hates her Samsung Captivate. But I don't have no money too lol.
[Nexus One General] bmszabo:
Maybe a tip -however, above your proposed budget: I'm in the same ship, leaving my (really loved!) N1 because of lack of ICS support from Google.

Here in the Netherlands you can get Nexus S for eur 250, simlock-free; as for me, the best choice at this moment. You can order one at different sites (belsimpel.nl, phoneshop.nl, etc), eur 250 for a Google phone, getting ICS update among the first looks me a good deal/ upgrade of my loved N1.
[Nexus One General] darx:
Why not wait for a new quad core phone? No point in buying other obsolete hardware like an atrix. I personally wouldn't get anything less than a Galaxy Nexus, and even that is dual core.

Just wait for a WXGA quad core phone. Your nexus still has life in it! I just switched to MIUI and that will keep me happy until ICS gets hardware acceleration. You will regret upgrading now in a few months.
[Nexus One General] shadowch31:
Yeah sure if you can get the OP a quad core for £120 like he said he had available. I'm in the same boat myself and the Atrix is the only dual core for that price range. Even got me thinking about it but I hate the MotoBlur crap its infected with and not removable from what I've seen although can be somewhat hidden which makes me think Nexus S maybe my best option.

At least if your gonna give advice read the OP first properly before commenting.
[Nexus One General] sikodemon:
Have you tried comparemymobile dot com?
[Nexus One General] joelp228:
Before you completely give up on your N1, I suggest you give the ICS cm9 ROM a try. It made me fall in love with my n1 all over again lol. The latest update is really fluid and stable. Well that is just my opinion, wouldn't hurt to try. :D
[Nexus One General] mentaist12:
im with this guy, im runing the latest alpha ICS rom for a couple of days now as a daily driver and im loving it and this is just the alpha...

if thats not enough to keep the good old n1 then go for the nexus s its pretty cheap and is getting official ics... though i personally hate plastic samsung hehe
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Yeah, if you're working on a budget, there is no practical reason to upgrade from the Nexus One.

If you can get a slightly better phone, it will not be worth it. Take your current budget and keep it in a safe place for the Nexus 4 next year. Right now you won't be getting your money's worth. And the Nexus One is a great phone that will have a good ICS rom soon.

I could spend the money to upgrade to the Galaxy Nexus, it's not so much a budget problem, but a practicality problem. My phone is great, and will last me another year.
[Nexus One General] shadowch31:
+1

The Nexus One really is the best of what is available within our price range, I just really don't like the styling of the Nexus S and its cheap arse casing and for what I gain it is not enough to tear me away from my trackball colour notifications :D

So for me I'm gonna buy it a Christmas present of a brand new housing and feel happy knowing that although considered 'old' now she still has the legs to more than stand her own.
[Nexus One General] bmszabo:
Nexus S +s:

nfc?

Google talk video/voice chat?

Short term ICS?
[Nexus One General] oligambit:
Still with my N1

I agree with you. My 2 year's old N1 tastes ICS (thanks to blackrose and texasice!!). A new beginning without any cost!! Don't care if google doesn't support, devs are here to do the job and it's a great job. Thanks to all of them. Just have to wait few more days (Christmas present?) to have a beta version but alpha11 is quite good!
