Got mine from negri, and I am with T-Mobile. Its great :) a little expensive but well worth it in my opinion. Honestly, I got some sort of a twisted satisfaction knowing that I had it before Verizon assholes got it.. haha. I was upset that it went to Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Same here, I was like ughhhh! the phone isn't as cool because other people will have it now.

But matter fact, I still have the smiles knowing mines says "Google" instead of "Verizon 4G LTE" on it ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brian6685:
Agreed. I went into a Verizon store the day after getting it like 2 weeks ago and pulled it out in front of them. They were amazed, I almost nut my pants.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
lol tease.. I wonder if the weight differences between the GSM and CDMA version are even noticeable in the hand
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Nobody has any indication whatsoever that this phone is coming to T-Mobile officially. Honestly considering that the VZW version just came out yesterday, i wouldn't be holding my breath on a T-Mo announcement any time soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
It wasn't going to last forever. Can't make a bunch of money without making a bunch of phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sassyness77:
Honestly just buy the GSM version! I just did and can't wait for it to arrive!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinMArchibald:
With the Verizon device already down to $150 with a new two-year contract through Amazon Wireless, wonder if that will have any impact on whether a cheaper US version of the GSM Galaxy Nexus gets sold here. Maybe the only option will be to buy an imported GSM device. How soon before the import cost comes down to somewhere less than $600? When the quad core phones come out in the spring?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Amazon Wireless (and similar outlets) are selling brand new phones for around 1/2 their carrier price all the time. They're not discounting because of low demand, it actually makes sense for them to sell at that price. They get new contracts and extra ETFs out of it. It has nothing to do with the price of the GSM version or the version coming to the USA. Verizon has a set exclusivity time, and that contract between VZW and Google isn't going to change based on price.

I don't know how long it'll take for the import price to come down under $600, but it'll definitely be a little while. I bet you'll see it in the low $600's, but under $600 is damn cheap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcguinness89:
just get one imported.. or do like i did and get one in your city. i'm using it on t-mobile and everything works great! 4G/3G with better service than any other phone i've had. Yes!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinMArchibald:
Thanks for the explanation. I was thinking the sudden price drop by Amazon was due to less than expected demand. Even if that were true, I guess that still wouldn't indicate whether the demand would be just as low for the GSM version in the US.

I mentioned the idea of getting the GSM import with my wife, and she said, "For that price, you should just get laptop." Haven't tried mentioning that the T-Mobile contract would be cheaper than a Verizon account. That argument would go over better if the GSM import price was lower.

Was a little tempted by the Amazon deal for the Verizon phone, but the LTE radio issues worry me enough to hold off for a few months to see if any firmware updates help. By then the Verizon exclusivity period might be over, and prices might continue to fall for both versions. And I can also see how well the T-Mobile SGS2 performs with ICS and CM9. Who knows; maybe in a few months we'll get a subsidized T-Mobile SGS2 HD with a HSPA+ 42-compatible Exynos, notification LED, and ICS, though something like that's not likely until the Spring, if at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lettcco:
You do realize that in the long run you pay more for subsidized phones, right? Do a excel spreadsheet and compare 24 months with verzion, tmobile classic, value and prepaid...you will see pretty obvious what you need to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yumunum:
And the Galaxy Nexus almost seemed like a joke to me. It lagged, had choppy scrolling, would take forever to load random sites, the GPS was extremely inaccurate... Is this normal? It kinda sucked, to be honest!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cnbuff410:
I'm pretty sure it's ABNORMAL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ktmdavid229:
All demo phones are like that(this includes tablets, laptops, etc). People get their grimy hands all over it and do who knows what. Mine Nexus has zero lag and the browser is amazing. It also pinpointed my exact location in the Chick-fil-a drive-thru.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jburnette87:
You mustve been playing with a rezound,not the nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alopez_45:
+1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phoenx06:
It may have not been updated to 4.0.2 as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arrtoodeetoo:
Rule #1 of shopping for a phone/tablet. Never trust a demo device!

I'm assuming it had 100 useless apps loaded on it, lots of crap running in the background, and a live wallpaper that made the homescreens lag, and hasn't been rebooted since they turned it on. I just described every demo Android device in the Verizon store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jburke90:
Calkulin vs Phantomhacker

Calkulin 2.5 vs Blazer 2.0

which has the better performance/battery life?

I am currently on calkulin 2.5 with the el13 modem. But I like how blazer looks like ics. I have used older blazer roms and they were ok. But im looking for others opinions. Thanks =)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyhassen:
I used Calkulin 2.5 for a day, i just switched to unnamed 2.0.1 and I'm LOVING the set up, seems to be a hair smoother i noticed and very responsive. I could be wrong but it also seems to just have better battery life in general. I'm just using Rogues Kernel for EL13.

I think i might try desperado tho, every says its really good and result in amazing bat life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jburke90:
So your "setup" will be "UnNamed" ROM, EL13 Modem, and the Desperado kernal?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kogama:
i was going to make a thread like this for el13 Im curious too im running calks 2.5 never tried blazer or unnamed this is my first rom

i want something that has good battery life without sacrificing speed and performance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VegasEvo4G:
I haven't tried unnamed, but between blazer and calk's, both have outstanding battery life. I'm coming from an OG evo so I'm easily impressed with not having a 10% drop after browsing through xda for 10 minutes... In all seriousness though, I go all day with moderate to heavy data usage (mostly wifi) and have at least 40% left before I crash and plug it in. I couldn't really tell a difference between the two- both are fantastic in my opinion.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
Been running Calk's 2.0.1a for a week on Rogue 1.30 and with heavy workday use it goes from morning to evening and still left with 25% - 30% left after 10-11 hours.

On weekend use with WiFi it goes a day + easily.

My old EVO 4G would be lucky to get half that battery life. The Galaxy SII really is a major improvement in battery.

They say the S3 will be even better for battery, but be thinner with a high res AMOLED+ screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I'm not feeling the EL13 leak....just doesn't seem as smooth and fast. Even Calkulin's release. I've been running all his roms, but the latest, meh... On 2.0.1a right now and loving it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] weboide:
My first full day on calkulin's 2.5 rom and I love it! Battery life is great, I've got 10hr on battery and 53% left.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kogama:
i ran calks 2.5 for a couple of days..it was ok but no where near as responsive as blazer which i put in yesterday and as for battery life I cant say anything since i just put it in
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyhassen:
UnNamed, EL13, Rogue. My battery life so far is pretty darn good with active use of txting and listning to music, unless i crack out GTAIII for a couple of hours......
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pr3cision:
I disabled my camera and now its no where to be found l...I did that cuz it was force closing after I used paper camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
you probably just disabled the app. go into app manager and it should be in there.

settings->apps>-all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pr3cision:
So I enabled the camera again. Thank you. But it still force closes. When i open it, it just shows a black screen and after a moment it force closes. Did I burn the sensor somehow?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pr3cision:
also, I cannot launch the camera from any app like eBay and etc....and even the flashlight widget doesn't work and force closes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
go back into that app manager and clear the data for the camera app. then try the camera again the normal way (i dunno about ebay apps, ect).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pr3cision:
I cleared data. Stopped the app. I did all that but didn't fix the problem. I pulled the battery out and let the phone sit for a few and then turned it on and it worked. Very weird. I wanna try to replicate the problem but I'm scared on a 750 dollar phone with no insurance. It was when I was using paper camera and taking a few pictures that this happened...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spovat:
don't panic. worst case scenario you can just flash the original image that google provides or any custom roms. you can find plenty of information in the dev section
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _Dejan_:
I have same problem with paper camera. When Im close it app crash and camera stop working...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lafrad:
This problem just occured to me, But I was NOT using Paper Camera.

Camera *AND* GTalk both force close on launch.

I was running CM9 with Franco kernel, latest Gapps. it just occurred randomly on a reboot, no flashes or anything in-between...

anyone else have issues with this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgs991099a:
I'm having issues too. If I turn my phone off while in the camera app, and then turn my phone back on, it gives the error that my camera cannot be found. Only way I know how to fix it is to reboot my phone. I'm running stock 4.0.2, rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttsupra95:
I have the Verizon Galaxy Nexus and the Verizon NFL mobile app does not work. It lets you download it from the market but once you open it, it says not compatible with this device. THAT SUCKS!!!. Going to have to reactivate my Bionic until they sort this out. The NFL 2011 app opens but keeps crashing along with visual voicemail from Verizon. I'm non rooted with the 4.02 update.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] harwooc:
is there a way to put a new radio into a rom before flashing it onto your phone or do you need to flash a radio completely seperately than when you flash the rom?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
you can flash a rom at any time, or update radio at any time..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] harwooc:
i was hoping to just simply change a file in the rom's foler or something instead if that was possible?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
The radio is completely seperate from the roms, so you cannot change anything in the rom. Flashing the radio is quite simple, you put the radios zipfile on the root of your sdcard reboot into your bootmanager and it will ask you if you want to update, you choose yes and reboot. That's it. If the radio sucks for you, you can always revert back to one that worked.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] harwooc:
wow that is alot simpler than i thought it was. i read around and there were some sites saying it was alot more complicated than flashing roms
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] harwooc:
will i need to do anything about getting radio-off? some sites said something about that but i have no idea what that really even means i just have security-off
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
In order to flash radios, roms, kernels etc you need s-off and to be rooted. That's all, hope that helps.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] increduloustoo:
Changing bootloaders and radios can brick a phone so make sure everything is ready to go...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Changing a bootloader can brick a phone, switching a radio can't. Even if you flash a radio that is not for your phone and you get a bootloop you can always do a battery pull, hold down-volume + power and flash the correct radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WhistlingDog:
[Noob alert] can you backup your existing radio?

Is there a way to separately backup the radio (in case the new one is problematic)?

Alternately, if you do a Nand Backup through CWM Recovery, which apparently does a complete backup of the phone at that point, does this also include the current radio? Which means, if you flashed a crappy new radio, you'd be able to boot into recovery and Nand Restore the phone, right?

Sorry about the noob questions, but in the Eris world (my prev phone) it was often said that flashing a bad radio was the surest way to brick your phone...

Thx
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Nope, and it's strictly a software backup. Just make sure you check md5 before flashing new radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
No need to backup the radio, just download the correct a different radio for your specific phone if you have any issues with the one you flashed, then boot into recovery plug in your device and choose "toggle usb", that will mount your phone to your PC and you can drag the new radio to the root of your SD card, reboot into bootloader and flash it just like you did the prior. A bad radio will never brick your phone, it will just not allow it to boot or cause other problems when booted. As long as you keep a few different radios meant for your device on your pc you can always drag and drop them into recovery.

Also, Nandroid does not backup radios, the radio does not change when switching roms, it stays the same unless you manually install a new one through bootmanager.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
Actually, a radio can brick your phone because it is both writing the baseband image and that in turn writes to the radio's NVRAM (APN settings, etc). If the file is corrupted or not flashed completely, it can make the baseband chip non-responsive to upgrades, thereby bricking the phone. Trust me it happens. I was working on an Incredible 2 that had a corrupted radio flashed and there was no recovering. Not even manual edits to the NVRAM with CDMA workshop would work.

So while it is not likely, the radio can definitely do it. Usually just flashing again will fix errors, but not always.

Just always make sure to check MD5 from the phone before flashing and download from trusted sources.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
I stand corrected, thanks for the further input.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
I have found it best to transfer the radio file to the SD card using a card reader connected directly to a PC and verify the MD5 on the final media as to connect through the data cable and check MD5 on the PC and assume the transfer went OK.

Of course the best way is to download to phone itself and check the MD5 there.

Either way just remember after flashing the radio, either rename the file or move it to a folder so it's not right there in the root in case you want to use hboot for anything else.

You won't have to wait for the scan AND choose NO to do something else.:)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rehkhan97:
what kind of radios can you flash to the incredible 2? can you flash a tmobile radio?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
Definitely not. If you are stock, you don't need to worry as the radio is included with the update. If you are rooted, there are two branches of radios -- one for the Verizon Incredible 2 and one for the Chinese CDMA version. You only flash the Verizon one unless you are on that Chinese carrier.

Link to Available Radios

The Verizon Radios always start with x.xx.01.xxxx where the Chinese radios are x.xx.50.xxxx.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rehkhan97:
Thanks. But which update are you talking about? the gingerbread update? And also, does the phone need to be activated to work on tmobile?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
There were 2 radios that came in GB updates. Follow the link to the radio thread and you can match ROM version to radio version. The newest radio came out with the latest update a few days ago and has not been updated to the OP in that thread, so check the end for the newest.

Sent from my brain using human to phone transport technology.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nova5:
I would suspect its a bad idea to flash a chinese based radio into a us based phone?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
If you intend to use it as a phone and are not on that Chinese carrier, then yeah that is bad. It just makes the phone show no service constantly.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nova5:
That really needs to be made note of in the Radio thread then. Preferably in the OP. Obviously its a low threat problem, just reflash a US radio for a US phone and you're good to go. But its not mentioned in the main post of that thread. Guess I need to delete all the radios I downloaded and redownload only .01's. Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
Yeah I am not the OP at the original thread so I can't edit it. Not sure if the OP is around but I will try to PM in a bit.

Sent from my brain using human to phone transport technology.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nova5:
That I know ;), just making mention of it more than anything else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arrtoodeetoo:
Has anyone else besides me had a lot of mistaken calls because the phone decides to go to the contacts lists after a call ends? It's happened to me at least three times today.

In older versions of Android, you had to tap a contact's name, which took you to another page, which had a small phone icon to call. or a long press brought up a menu. In ICS, just touching a name in the contacts list makes a call. It's kind of frustrating that I have to be extra careful after a call now, and manually back out of the list.

So, is there a way to make it go home after a call ends? What kind of hackery would this require to the dialer apk?

Hi, I am porting CWM to my phone the Transform Ultra, it's nearly done except for a really bad bug.

The phone reboots after 2 minutes in recovery. Now I heard this was something I could fix but defining something for the build. But I've had no luck. A friend of mine is porting CWM to the LG esteem as well and is also getting this bug.
