i got mine early :P got it yesterday
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Yes, I believe I read somewhere it is 2000mah and it comes with a custom cover that has only a slight bulge over the stock cover. the link has a picture but no details.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Do you not see the problem with what you just said? If it is indeed a "technical impossibility" as you say, and the only possible case is that he has a faulty battery, then someone should probably say that instead of attacking him! Such jerks on here..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
i wanna buy this asap !!!

wish i can buy it online
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mb02:
pft, who needs LTE. And forget about cable internet or quad core processors. I'd rather keep 56k dial up and a Pentium 3 in my PC.

You all are dumb. All I see in this thread is jealousy. People say the same thing about penises: "who needs a 9 inch penis? I'm fine with 3 inches. 9 is just useless."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
hahahah good one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
It was "confirmed" by multiple people that the extended battery is 2100mAh. I guess that doesn't hold much weight, when you look at how this rumor topic is panning out, but that's what a majority of people are saying.

I never said everyone should attack him, but he started off the topic by saying "this is ridiculous I should go back to iphone". This, immediately, makes me assume it's a troll thread, but even if it's not he started off by saying "this thing is crap" instead of asking if it's normal. Of course people are going to come back with insults.

When someone starts off a topic or post in that fashion, it leads me to believe that it's completely untrue. At that point there's no reason to offer assistance, because there's a great chance he doesn't actually need it.

LOL good point.

BTW, this is completely off-topic...but how are you guys posting to this thread using the XDA app? I can't manage to find this forum in the app...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Im posting from my desktop but I found the thread just fine on the XDA app. It was the 6th thread down from the top 5sec ago when I checked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleach168:
If we're talking real world scenarios, then Verizon LTE averages less than 10mbps. http://www.pcmag.com/Fastest-Mobile-Networks-2011 That study was done 6 months ago, so it's probably even slower now.

Galaxy Nexus on T-Mobile will probably average between 6-10 mbps. If you had an Amaze or Hercules, you'd probably average over 10 mbps. But please keep calling it a crappy network. Less T-Mobile enthusiasts = better speeds for me. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Idk what planet your from but technology usually gets faster for us as time goes by....usually

but when I had my Bionic 2 months ago I was getting 20mbps at work in Las Vegas. (out in the boonies of las vegas). That's faster than my home internet connection. Sorry no pictures, I returned my Bionic in October because I thought I would be getting the Nexus early Nov :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Well the thread I can find fine, but the actual forum section I can't find at all. Trying to find the "Samsung Galaxy Nexus General" section, and nothing. It's been drivin me crazy for 2 weeks lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Found it on mine, Its between the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SII SGH-T989 and the HTC Sensation XL. 19th from the bottom. make sure you favorite the section so you don't have to find it each time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Well, I think I need to get rid of the phone. The battery is just insanely bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
sounds to me like you need to get rid of the battery.

If the average user couldn't make it through the work day don't you think their would be more of an outcry? most non ex-iPhone users say this phone has great battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
couldnt agree more dropped 15 percent in 10 mins without even doing anything i have cycled the battery twice now. even with the lte off its still bad
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
LTE is fast. I was pulling down 18mb on my temp rezound but I don't need it on all day. Turn that crap off. I still get 4mb on 3G.

Had it on playing with it all day and for 50% left. I'm sure the nexus will be the same.

-sent from temp HTC Rezound waiting for Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] King Shady:
4mb on 3G on Verizon? Hmmm...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Before you said 15% in 5 minutes, now you're saying 15% in 10 minutes.

Be honest, are you just guessing or are you making this all up? Even 15% in 10 minutes is *not feasibly possible* with an 1850mAh battery. Every major reviewer that's touched the device has said it has great battery life, even for an LTE device. Compare that to the Rezound, which is found to have fairly good battery life. With a 1600mAh battery they still got like 2 1/2-3 hours of *HARD* use (streaming HD video and things of that nature).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
i think the screen is consuming is most of my battery it said 60 percent and it does not make much of a difference if i was 5 mins or 10 even for 20 mins loosing 15 percent is beyond insane
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
I'm pretty sure hes a troll. he hasn't even posted a screen shot of what he claims. He probably doesn't even have the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
For instance, you could have plugged in the phone after getting it for an hour or 2, then unplugged it and had the screen on full brightness while downloading crap. The battery, in that case, would never have been fully charged and would show a massive drain in a very short amount of time.

Post a screen shot of the screen on time (poke the Screen listing). It still wouldn't, necessarily, prove much (since it still doesn't show all the other factors), but it gives a better indication.

Outside of that, try using the phone until it's dead (shuts itself off), then charge it for 6+ hours (overnight is best). Do this 2-3 times straight and see how the battery life is then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Thanks for the SS, I trust you a little bit more but I still think its just a calibration problem. Like I said, my Bionic lasted for 3 hours at 5% first time I let it drain all the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
i already did that twice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zenoran:
Lte phones can be a curse if not tweaked properly. I've preferred aosp ever since the first nexus but had to run sense on my thunderbolt until cm7 got tweaked to optimize battery life comparable to sense. Not sure what it is but it is a drastic difference.

The fact is, though, they apparently did figure out how to get aosp to work efficiently because now I keep 4g on all day with cm7 and I go my full day without the battery dieing. Given time I'm sure the devs will optimize the galaxy as well.

And for those saying lte is overkill and pointless you're obviously not in a good 4g area or just flat out ignorant. If you're a heavy data user you notice it tremendously. If you're not, then simply turn it off and be happy in your own preference. ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
I can tell you right now I prefer 5 mins to download a 300mb on 4g compared to 30 mins. With 4 bars 4g I download at 24.24mbs as NY best speed, 16-19 average. However lte, a giant screen and a dual core does suck down ur battery. Who would have ever thunk it??? I have had my lte gn for nearly a month and consistently get 13-18 hours battery with mild to moderate use 4g always engaged and screen off Max speed set to 350mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xHausx:
If you've recalibrated the battery stats and everything I would take the phone back to Verizon and either ask for a new battery or a new phone. Sometimes if the phone is defective it can have a small short somewhere and chew through the battery like that, but it should be getting awfully warm discharging at that rate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
Although LTE does suck a lot of battery that sounds like you haven't fully cycled the battery. This has 2 effects - 1) the battery won't operate at full capacity, and 2) which is most likely whats happening here - the percentage reading is inaccurate as it doesn't know the power range of that particular battery. Do a full charge to 100% (and leave it plugged in for at least an extra 30 minutes), then let it discharge all the way until it powers off. Then charge it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
ok ill try that

Is this graph accurate? Didn't think the Droid Charge had exceptionally good battery life.

Breaking In New Batteries - New batteries come in a discharged condition and must be fully charged before use. It is recommended that you fully charge and discharge your new battery two to four times to allow it to reach its maximum rated capacity.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmartino5920:
I started reading this thread after I got home. While I was out I was getting 3 bars of LTE goodness. The screenshots below show some results from both inside my house with 2 bars and the test from when I had 3 bars. Battery drains fast but who cares!?!?!?!?

It a Nexus!

jmar

EDIT: I am having trouble attaching another pic right now but I just got 28 down and 19 up with full bars of 4G LTE!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] godsfshrmn:
Li-ion does not need this conditioning. That is a characteristic of NiMh batteries. Discharging a Li ion battery completely on a regular basis will greatly decrease its life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
My first full charge got me 10 hours on my normal use. I can definitively live with those results, and have an extra battery if not. :)

This is my first day, normal usage:

These next two are streaming Netflix on 4G with Screen on 100% brightness.
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
I have this strange issue... Using InsertCoin ROM 3.4.5... This was even present in 3.4.4

I don't know whether it's ROM issue or some software issue but Once in a day i suddenly get HTC Sense Force Close and immediately after that superuser pops up with "nobody needs your permission for Root access"

I don't know what's that "nobody" but it repeatedly asks for permission and i normally deny it once and then i check in superuser log, it shows some 20 requests at one time which were all denied..

Did anyoneelse face this issue?
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
Actually yes... I denied it also. I believe it was from an app I installed but haven't really investigated it. Maybe someone else may be able to shed some light on this. I denied it because it is obviously malicious.

I'm running the sensay rom. It didn't occur until days after I flashed it.

Edit:

After a quick google search app uid 9999 has the name "nobody" assigned to it. This has been in androids busybox for a long time. I'm no dev and dont know exactly what the uid does but it apparently assigns labels to apps in some way. So it may not he malicious persay. But i can't verify that. Anyone wanna explain if the uid 9999 in this case is a developer error or is it common, or possibly intended to be malicious??
[HTC Sensation] vesspa:
I have the same issue with "nobody" asking for permission also running the newest insertcoin
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
The first thing i do after flashing ROM is uninstalling that Google Search application...

It's not there in my ROM since first day... don't know what's the exact reason for this nobody..

Any Dev might want to shed light on it... ?
[HTC Sensation] Talon25:
Im going to bumb this too. I have been asked for "nobody" to gain access and also for "radio" to gain root access. Anyone else have radio ask as well??

Could be wrong but my assumption for "nobody" asking for root access - when you rooted your phone the exploit used may have created a user "nobody" with root privileges and that ends up being the way you gain root to your phone and are able to mod it - I don't think you actually become "root". If anyone else can shed light on this I am sure everyone would appreciate it.
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
No I don't think its an exploit or anything.. as I said app uid 9999 is what my superuser has identified "nobody" as. And as i said before it has been incorporated into android and busybox for a long time. There are many other app uid's for a lot of other things. I just don't know exactly what it means or if this instance of it is malicious.

Edit: check this wiki out

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Android_UIDs_and_GIDs

Notice uid 1011 is for adb and 3001 is for Bluetooth. I just dont have the knowledge to know exactly what uid 9999 nobody is, and why its all of the sudden its asking for root privileges. Maybe its an app or process that hasn't been assigned another uid. If I read correctly every app on your phone is assigned its own uid.

Also no I haven't had it ask anything about the radio.
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
Anyone having this issue may please specify his ROM swell... I think it's only a problem with insertCoin ROM... If it's true then we can contact baadnewz for the issue...
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
No as I said in my earlier post in this thread I'm using CDT's newest sensay. But I think I'm the only one.

Let me ask a question. Do any of you have a siri type voice search app? It was suggested earlier that could be a cause. I have one called speaktoit assistant, and have tried Jeannie. Maybe it could be that? I dunno.
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
I don't have those apps... But i have installed INOVA voice engine (tts) and using voice phone to read caller names and read text messages...
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
Somebody please help identifying this problem... I made a log of my phone after this nobody appeared

http://db.tt/dvafHkVm

Someone may view shed help us here
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
I think I found the culprit.... I was running ROM and it was working perfectly fine until I flashed RTL Arabic patch and 15 mins after booting I hit nobody request.... This time I Allowed it .. Works fine. No prob so far.

Anyone with this issue knows he flashed RTL or Arabic patch?
[HTC Sensation] VagPhillips:
Nobody

No Arabic language pack, but started getting this today after installing Leedroid's latest ics for Sensation.

I seem to get it mostly when moving or adding widgets to homescreen.

Huge pita.

---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ----------

Sorry, forgot to mention that I actually get the nobody request just before sense restarts, it happens if I allow or deny access.
[HTC Sensation] hammyinc:
Have any of you downloaded Space Junk Lite. I have had the same problem, so I installed all my apps one at a time after reflashing. The problem started after I installed Space Junk, I removed it rebooted and everything fine.

Edit: continuing to install apps, still no problems, doing a Nandroid every 2 or 3 installs.

Edit: on to games now, one of them giving same problem, going to bed now will continue tomorrow. Nandroird is a wonderful thing.
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
Of you guys face this problem then Allow it root access... It's probably a system process asking for root access which it's not well calculated.by Superuser...

Thereafter it will be solved...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
Wanted to share this with anyone who isn't aware. We can tether our ET4G on 4G but it requires USB and a 3rd party app. I tested it tonight with the free version of EasyTether and it works like a charm. Not personally interested in spending $10 for the full app but to some it may be worth it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
I haven't tested Klink but it's only $4 and it may work as well as a cheaper alternative.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
Yea dude, you can use PDAnet as well, and you can do it with 3g as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
Sweet, checking that out now. I see the free version doesn't allow https. I'll have to download the app to see how much the full version costs because I don't see it listed in the market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] joe.stay:
To use these tethering method doesn't required the phone to be rooted, right? Also, will I be charged if I try to use it and can sprint figure out that I am tethering for free? I don't want to get a bill for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. How safe it is to tether undetected and are lots of people doing it for free with no penalty? I would like to tether for free but am just too afraid of getting caught and charged for it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
To be honest with you I used to have AT&T and now I have sprint and i've never once got a txt or anything in the mail telling me to stop. On AT&T I was running Cyanogen Mod and on my ET4G i'm running Calkulin's which has NoCIQ. If you aren't familiar with NoCIQ it basically makes it so sprint can't tell how your phone is using the data.

I wouldn't trust tethering if you're running a stock rom, even if the dev of the software says it's safe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasden:
I think you might want to quantify your statement regarding NoCIQ. I've yet to see any published report from any reliable source showing it being used for data measurement. All a carrier has to do is look for unusual spikes in data volume.

.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
I've had an android on sprint for almost 2 years now, always rooted, always tethering, always stock rom. Ciq still on there. They have never told me anything. And I always use 3rd party apps for tethering. I honestly don't think they know/care. At the end of the day, it works for the most of us, and we don't really abuse it; thus, they really shouldn't have a problem with it. They're bull**** hot spot app from sprint is ridiculously slow anyway. There's a huge difference in speed... its almost like they want us to find our own way of tethering lol.

That's my rationale and I'm sticking to it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
You may be right.. but they would have to prove what is using the data.. I have a torrent app on my phone I download stuff with and that uses a ton of data with out being tethered.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottypimpin636:
I couldn't agree more. Like you said, you aren't abusing it and neither am I. If I were torrenting 20GB's a day or something crazy then yeah, i'd worry.

I have no idea how the data looks to Sprint, I have yet to see them care.

[Nook Color General] Icehearted:
So I've been fiddling with LauncherPro running in CM7, and I've been trying to get the grid set up properly. I'm really not sure what the optimal is as far as avoiding distorting things too much, but I read somewhere earlier that 10x10 was best. Considering the screen size I felt that seemed weird.

I managed to set things up perfectly on my phone, and using very basic math determined that on my phone (LG Phoenix) the proper sizing was 80x96 pixels per square, but unfortunately this translated to a grid of 7.5x10.7 on the Nook Color. When I tried it out at 7x10 (using LP's Calendar widgets) things looks smooshed.

More trial and error, lots of searching (with no results anywhere), and the best I came up with was 6 columns by 7 rows. Using the calendars as a gauge I can say that so far it looks best. A problem with this size though is that everything looks enlarged.

If anyone has anything to offer, I'm all for it, but this was the best I could do, and I am pretty new to this kind of thing (I've only had the nook for a few days). Since I found nothing in here referring specifically to this issue, I thought I'd at least post what I've worked out so far. Hope it's helpful.

Thanks for the feedback, hwong96. I should have also added that my numbers were for portrait. I tried 6x8 but it was still a bit smooshed together. I Keep using LP Calendar widget as a reference, the first one being longer and more rectangular, the second being square, or at least they should be if the dimensions are right. I will also add that I've got Auto-fit checked.
[Nook Color General] hwong96:
I use ADW set at 6 column and 8 rows. App drawer set at 5 column in portrait and 6 column in landscape.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
For maximum flexibility, use 10x10 and resize any "smooshed" widgets to make them large enough to not be "smooshed."
[Nook Color General] bobstro:
One of the few features that I liked on my WinMobile phone was the ability to arrange icons and widgets differently in landscape and portrait modes. With a bit of work, it could look "perfect" in either orientation. I've forgotten what launcher it was, but it was a simple solution.

Even better is the B&N launcher interface with no grid. Just drag things around and size them as you like. It can auto-arrange and size things if you like. More like my messy desk, I guess.

Meanwhile, I've gone with 5x7 on CM in portrait mode. I quit worrying about making it look anything but usable in landscape as I change it around too frequently to spend that kind of time on it!

ADW EX allows you to resize icons. Not sure if LP has that feature, but it didn't last time I ran it. That might help if things look too sparse.
