Okay just did a test. First i installed the normal CoreDroid fusion. And after this i flashed the zip from the link above and it worked for me. For the moment i dont know where the problem is. Left screen is Stock and the right is mine. I did it one time with wipe davlik and cache and one time without and both times it worked.
[HTC Sensation] grifone1893:
Man your work is very nice.

As soon as I get home I try to install it.

Could you give me some advice for the rounded icons?

Thank you!
[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
The only advice i can give is download this file and flash it using CWR or 4ext. :D

And you must have the CoreDroid V2.7 ROM on your device.

[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
A little push

Okay i´m trying to make a cool navbar for CoreDroid but for the moment i have no good idea. But i´m thinking. :D
[HTC Sensation] Lozone:
I was thinking the same thing. Your button design would be awesome as the nav bar some how.

[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
This was my idea to, but i must look how to do this for the best result.
[HTC Sensation] grifone1893:
Thank you very much. I will follow your 3AD to test your work.

Ciao.
[HTC Sensation] :
Hope we will see your awesome buttons and the clock for the V3!
[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
I will have a look what i can do because i want them back to. :D
[HTC Sensation] :
Will patiently wait, thanks
[HTC Sensation] :
Any update, bro? Really miss the buttons and the clock... :)
[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
Its not easy to do it for Sense 3.5 or the new ICS. Becasue the default skin is not Skinable anymore so that you need to skin the Blusky or Burgundy skin. But the switches will always come from the Default skin. That means when i skin the switches in Burgundy skin they will not shown because the devices hold the ones from the Default skin.

But i work on a way to do it.
[HTC Sensation] Dic3ptor:
Soon in a new thread!

LOZONW AND I DECIDED TO MAK A NEW THREAD TOGETHER!

Little preview!
[HTC Sensation] Pete2506:
Hm.. the default skin is not changeable, but how about Chinese new year skin? It nearby changes everything.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Greetings,

I bought the GNex from Expansys USA the day it came out and I have had the phone for about 5 days now. There are several things that are making me questions whether or not to keep it, get an exchange, or return altogether. Please advise:

1. The main thing I am concerned with is the battery performance. I am a Noob, so I am not sure how to run all those fancy battery tests, but I can say that when I take the phone off the charger in the morning there is only about 30-40% left by the afternoon, and that is with moderate browsing, music, and a few calls and texts. I installed the Advanced Task Killer to try and save battery life. I am coming from an iPhone 4 (I was locked into it with a contract, bad purchase I know) and it seems that the battery life is way better on the iPhone. Is there a way to determine if my GNex battery or device has a genuine problem before I return this one and potentially get a worse one? Also, I read somewhere that with these batteries they get better over time, is that true?

2. Since I got a GNex from the very first batch sent to the USA, I am wondering if the newly resumed/shipped batches will have the volume fix installed? If so, is it worth me sending back the one I have now for a newly flashed one with the update? How can anyone tell if their device is updated anyway? I have Android Version 4.0.1, but isn't that what everyone has now?

3. The speaker volume is not that impressive, and I tried installing those volume booster apps to no avail. Is the speaker just not that powerful on this device?

Feel free to insult and/or flame me on my previous iPhone usage and also my lack of technical knowledge. :o:D I love the GNex because of it's amazing features on paper and all the available bandwidths I can choose from as I travel abroad frequently and this is one of the only penta-band phones I could find other than a few Nokias. But they don't run Andriod!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Android has "worse" battery life than iOS mostly because it has true multi-tasking and constant connectivity (unless in airplane mode). They generally do improve slightly, but anything 8 - 12 hrs. is pretty average, with "average" usage.

You will get an OTA (over-the-air update) sometime over the next 6 days. Most likely any replacement one you received you would still have to wait for the OTA anyways.

No, it is fairly underwhelming (Nexii always have been actually)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Thank for the quick reply s.m.knipe! Like I said I am new to this type of phone OS, so I appreciate the answers. I forgot to add another question before:

When I make a call, and I tap the icon for speaker phone, and then immediately try and tap the icon for the keypad numbers, there is a delay and the keypad numbers do not appear immediately. I guess I am saying there is a lag of sorts between pressing the speaker icon and the keypad icon to appear. However, this only seems to happen when the phone is taking a while to connect the call. When I tried doing the same thing in a better service area the icons switched back and forth seamlessly.

I really don't notice any defects on the phone at all in terms of build quality as opposed to others' here on this forum that have screen issues and cameras not being centered so that is why I am reluctant to send this one back for replacement if there is really no problem with the battery or speaker. Unfortunately I have no one to compare devices with as this phone is rare in the US. Anyway, I guess I'll be keeping this bad boy and use it as best I can!

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Ok so I just retried making a call in this better reception area, and I still have the lag between the speaker icon and the keypad icon. Must be something else besides the reception?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
1.) Battery is what it is. You might want to wait for undervolted or underclocked kernels or more battery concious roms to come out. There is one (Android Revolution HD) which the first post claims to have better battery life than the stock rom. Second, as pointed out by many members, task killers do not help the battery at all. (Cannot confirm this myself, speculation from different posts) If you wanted, you could post some screenshots about your battery life and screen time and see how it compares to other members with Galaxy Nexus'. Note: The iPhone 4 has lower battery consumption because its clocked significantly less than the Galaxy Nexus (Single core 800mhz i think) and the OS itself is heavily optimized for the phone. Plus, I would assume that the iPhone has less processes running in the background compared to the G-Nexus (could be wrong though)

2.) The volume fix is being rolled out via a software update, so it should automatically be sent to your phone whether its the first batch or the hundredth.

3.) For the speaker volume, you might try changing some settings in the equalizer? Not too sure about this, but many people have reported that the speakers are reasonable in terms of performance and if you seriously feel as though the performance of the speaker is that bad, you could try exchanging it, but I doubt any good would come out of it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Since it's a new phone try charging the battery fully and letting it discharge completely. After 3 to 5 times you should see improvement in your battery life. There is a thread on this that gives more info. Also a task killer is a bad idea and the thread covers this topic too.

I have a Nexus S and it's lasts me over 24 hours on a full charge with 3G and WIFI turned on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wodude:
The galaxy nexus also has a much larger screen than the iPhone which I think also plays a part in battery consumption
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Thanks for the replies! Any link for the thread you mentioned? I tried a search and couldn't locate it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
the screen is, without a doubt, the most power hungry component in the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Typically the battery display says 60% of the battery is being spent on the screen. Is this in line with other GNex users?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Oh, and has no one else noticed the lag I mentioned above in the on-screen display when pressing the speaker icon and then the keypad icon and then the long wait for the keypad coming up when making a call?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
nope :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
Anyone know where this thread is that is mentioned above with info about the battery life and why the task killer has issues or is a bad idea?
[HTC EVO 3D] 3vo kid:
anybody know where to download custom fonts that is compatible with the app "Font Installer"?

im looking for a "Death Note" font if there is one available :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Twolazyg:
There's a thread on here that tells you how to change your fonts without an app. Just search for it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] chattguy:
And I'm sure 'someone' has seen this before, but I haven't. Apparently after a "critical" windows update this morning, now my phone won't give me the Mount USB Storage option on my phone, and it's not showing as a drive letter like it usually does when I plug in my phone. I've got debugging checked, mock locations checked. I tried rolling back windows to undo whatever has been done, but that didn't work. I tried different ROM's (sense, AOSP both) and nothing. I even tried completely uninstalling reinstalling Android SDK using the dummy-proof windows .exe program. Nothing. I'm ready to "naomi campbell" my phone straight into someone's effing forehead.

I even tried toggling USB storage in recovery (which 99% always works) and it didn't help. Blargh.

Help.

P.S. I love you, your hair is pretty. Plz help. :P
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Macrodroid:
Bill Gates strikes again... Critical Updates are nothing more than BS, usually...Lol. Try uninstalling the last update, reboot and see if that works. Chances are, something in THEIR update broke the USB card connection through windows. I'm sure they'll fix it in another "critical update" (which seems to be every few weeks lately)... If that doesn't work, I'm lost at that point... I do know if you do system recovery/restore point, usually the updates stay in the system...

Hope that helps!
[Galaxy Tab General] larry0071:
Our G tab has been with us for about 6 months and was great. It was all stock, not rooted, and worked fine.

Suddenly, after doing the 2.3 OTA it started to force close any and everything and very often. I did a hard reset, thinking there was a corruption and maybe that would help. Reloaded some of the applications and then it started to force close again.

So, i thought I could root it and install the Galaxy Cubed 3 Rom, and i did.

I'm back at the same problem, force closes constantly on many apps, often apps that your not actively using. Facebook is un useable, Google maps that is never really used keeps coming up as force close, and just all sorts of random programs keep popping up as force close.

Can this be a hardware related issue? I'm not sure what to try from this point.

Help!
[Galaxy Tab General] dsb9938:
If you are having the same issue across multiple ROMs, it's probably hardware.

It's still in warranty, put the stock ROM on it and have it exchanged.

When you call for support, just yes them and pretend to do what they say.

D
[Galaxy Tab General] larry0071:
I reloaded the cubed Rom last night and it than great for the hour or so while setting it up. Played on FB for a bit. Today it was with my wife and she was excited that it was doing good, but in the last 5 minutes it force closed on one thing 3 times:

Android.process.acore

So, for now it is not closing all kinds of random items, just android. Can you think of why this would be force closing?
[Galaxy Tab General] agc93:
I would still suggest getting it repaired/replaced on warranty. Acore is a very important part of Android and shouldnt be getting force closes let alone regular ones.
[Galaxy Tab General] larry0071:
Yes, last night while I was using it, acore would FC market back to back, as in about 5 seconds between. I would power off, restart, and in 10 minutes it would come back.

[Galaxy Tab General] j0eyred:
Glad there is here!

I am in the same boat with both my wife's 7" VZW tab and my own. We both took the OTA 2.3.5 update and within hours started to experience FC errors. My wife's tab is stock (she has never let me mess with it :) ) Mine was rooted but otherwise stock at the time of the OTA. Her's has continued to have random FC. I have flashed back to stock 2.2 with ODIN and re-taken the OTA 2.3.5 only to have the same FC start up again after a few hours. I have also tried just about every other ROM on this board trying to come up with something that would work with no luck. I am beginning to think that contacting Samsung for both of our tabs is a good idea. Anyone else find anything that works?
[Galaxy Tab General] montecristo1:
I just posted (on xda) the many fixes for this issue that i found online. I have the Sprint Samsung Tab, just started on its own. The most popular answer that i found, but didnt work for me, is clearing your contacts cache. Many members from various forums suspect it has something to do with contacts, sync and facebook. So clear your cache.
[Galaxy Tab General] larry0071:
Just to update on my tablet... I got a warranty reticent replacement from VZW and it immediately vegan to also FC on us. I called vzw and the level 2 tech asked me to remove the memory card and do a complete wipe. he said that there is no way that 2 tablets are doing the same thing with the force closes, and he thinks that I carried some corruption over from within the SD card.

I removed the card, went to recovery and wiped, rebooted and have been running it with no memory card for 3 days. I'm still force closing, but not nearly as much.

Facebook is currently the midst constant of the force closes. Often, she goes to open FB and it never actually opens, it starts to open and then force closes.

Android Acorn is not coming up as a force close since this non SD card wipe.

Gmail is still force closing often, but not near as often as FB.

She will be playing her word games and it still well pop up the various force close errors on gmail and FB repeatedly even though she is not actively in those programs.

My wife wants to beat me about the neck and face area with her tablet at this point. She wants to give up on it and go get a nexus, but we can't sale a Galaxy Tab that is acting like this. Im considering buying out her $230 ETF and closing that line, then reopen it to get her the nexus. What is a husband to do?
[Galaxy Tab General] eym:
Were can I get a stock rom
[Galaxy Tab General] conan1600:
Man just go to manage apps and clear cache on facebook, gmail and a few other programs and your problems should go away ok.
[Galaxy Tab General] razorguy:
This.

I have found the stock 2.2 ROM but was hoping to find the 2.3.5 ROM and cannot. Anyone know where to find it?
[Galaxy Tab General] larry0071:
Stock,.non root.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
Hope its not like apple aerial problem that plague them in the past, but today is my 3rd time over a week that I have lost phone signal on 3 UK network.

I am in a relatively strong signal, and my wife's signal is full bars on her HTC hero.

And when I try search for network it says error searching strange away as if there is a hardware fault. Only reboot fix this.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccampbell1:
I'm using on T-Mobile US (although I actually use Three when I visit the UK, several times a year) and I found one thing which *MAY* help.

It depends where you are, if you use Three only on their 3G signal, or if you rely on their 2G roaming with Orange or whoever it is these days. Anyway, you could try the following:

From the dialer, dial *#*#4636#*#* (4636 spelling INFO) and it will bring up a hidden "Testing" menu.

- Choose the first option "Phone Information"

- Scroll down and you'll see a pull down menu where you can select the network type

- Mine seems to default to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)

- Try changing it to "WCDMA only" which should force your phone to ONLY use Three's 2100MHz network. (You could try "WCDMA Preferred" which should leave you with 2G as a fallback if needed).

I have no real evidence that this works - only that for me, it *seems* to hold onto a T-Mobile USA 3G signal a bit better - but I could be fooling myself.

Anyway, feel free to try it - you shouldn't need to reboot or anything. If it doesnt help, or screws something up, you can always set it back to the original setting (note that down!!).

Be careful playing around with the stuff in those menus BTW!!! Don't touch anything if you don't know what it does!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
Well, I am afraid changing that WCDMA didn't stop my lost of signal problem I just suffered a few moments ago.

I KNOW its a perfect signals where I am. I work from home, so no roaming about.

Any other ideas? The SIM I am using was perfectly fine on the samsung galaxy s I had previously.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rbs_uk:
I also have reception problems - Vodafone UK/Handtec phone.

Sometimes it loses reception completely - have to turn off/on.

Often it jumps from 2G to HSPA when I know I should have stable 3G where I live.

If I go into area where there is no reception and come out under clear sky - it takes veeeery long time to get reception back. Its quicker to turn off/on the phone.

Its VERY buggy - email stopped working, volume on keypad goes on/off, error when trying to view gallery etc.

I hope in few months time Google gets it sorted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
I don't get any other buggy issues with my phone. Just signal drops. This is my 4th android phone - none of them experienced this problem before with the same sim card.

Its acting like its gone into airplane mode (but without the plane, but with working wifi)

Not a great solution to keep turning it off/on to regain its signal - I am not even aware of the lost of signal, and can't be missing any important calls/text.

Oh man. I don't really want to take my phone back!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noTHINGface:
I have a very similar problem with my GN as per this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1374190

I have a new Galaxy Nexus from Amazon, sim free. Connects to Vodafone UK with no problem but will lose the connection entirely when I try to make or receive a call.

Same symptoms, loses carrier signal entirely, like in airplane mode but wifi, bluetooth etc carry on working. The same SIM (which I've had for years) works just fine in my old Desire.

Vodafone UK are sending me a new SIM so I'll try that but otherwise I think it will have to be returned to Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
well, 6th time to lose signal was the last straw, so took the phone back to three shop. They haven't heard of this problem, but then again its so new.

The staff were brilliant - got the phone exchanged without kicking up any fuss

So will see how it goes. I did ask what happens if i still find a fault - they said next step is to replace the sim. Would have thought replacing the sim first rather then the phone, but hey-ho - a new phone. hope nothing else is wrong with it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
i have a replacement device coming for this very same issue today.

I am on an expandsys device on ATT.

the signal has got to the point of being so bad that i have 93% signal loss in my home which usually gets 3/4 bars.

My wifes iphone is working just fine as well.

hopefully the new device fixes it , if not they are both going back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonlewi5:
3-UK User here.

Only had GN since last thursday but not experience any of these symptoms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
Glad to see another 3-uk user having a GN - and not experiencing the no-signal problem - so it looks more promising.

aimetti - sounds like you got a lot worse then mine. most of the time, for me, the signal is fine - the lost of signal is occurring when I wake my phone from sleep and it doesn't always seem to regain signal back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Faz20:
Instead of jumping onto a new phone, I think you guys should try a new SIM first. I saw a thread of people losing connection on Vodafone and a new SIM fixed it for all them :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
Well I just received my replacement

I will fill you all in. If it doesnt work I will activate my iphone 4s and put the micro sim in an adapter and test it in the SGN to see if its sim related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Romler:
Same problem here!

I've the same problem as tweedie's...

Seems to lose signal most of the time after waking up the phone.

could anyone told me how to fix this, of if it goes away with your replacement?

( in other words, I wan to know if this is a bug of ICS v.4.0.1, or a hardware problem)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
I received a replacement same issues happening.

Have a trouble ticket open on Google with many replies but no help from Google.

I have been using the adr rom and the xxkk6 radio and seems to be a bit better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tweedie:
Romler, i took the phone back to store for replacement. Had no trouble since then which must be three weeks ago now.

It MUST be hardware related. Both had same stock rom, had little software installed, same location and both same version of rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aindow:
I've been with 3 UK since 22/11/11 and I have had flawless service with them with no drop of signals at all.

The only time I lost signal was in the late hours one night for a few mins. When the signal came back I noticed I'm now getting HSPA+ with speeds of about 5-6 meg where previously I was only getting HSDPA with speeds of 2-3meg. To me that's proof enough of their network upgrades.

Rik.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meaple:
Bah if you're on HSDPA+. Still on normal HSDPA.

As for this 3 issue, I am on 3 and I have not had any issues at all. In fact 3 are better than other networks, at least better than Orange.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Star Shadow:
Three has been rolling out the H+ network the past month so it could be part of the work they were doing.

Will the Nexus display the H+ symbol instead of the plain H next to the battery? Or is there another way to tell if your on the new network?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aindow:
H is shown when connected to HSPA+ OR HSDPA

3G is shown when on a basic 3g service. Some phones drop to this to save battery when the faster speeds are not needed eg for background syncing(since the latest radio update, XXKK6, mine just switches between HSDPA and HSPA+ and very rarely shows just 3g).

G is shown when outside of the 3 network area. The phone will be using the Orange 2g network.

The status bar shows 3 when on Three, but shows 3 with another 3 below it when roaming on Orange.

If you go in to settings, about phone, status it will show the network type like below. Mine is sat on HSDPA and only switches to HSPA+ when I need to load something over the net

Connected to HSPA+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Star Shadow:
Thanks for the info. I wonder if there is a widget we could get that is shown in the status bar that shows when we are on hsdp+, then I know if my area is covered. Otherwise, by the time you go to that screen, you may be off the H+ network and back to regular.
