Well it is my first full day with the nexus with the 2100mah extended battery so YMMV but the rezound would last a whole day with about 20% left on its 1650mah battery.

I have LTE and NFC turned off and I was about 14% by 6pm.

The thickness difference is null. Even with the extended battery its the thinnest phone I've had. Maybe its ICS? Maybe its the beautiful screen? Maybe its something else... but its something weird. And I think the phone and ICS is so awesome that the "off" battery life just sticks out.

Hard not to focus on it.

Fortunately its so thin that perhaps I'll pick up a 3500mah battery. I'm lovin it regardless.

iPhones are having their share of battery issues too. Its just the sacrifice for power!!

I'm not complaining at all. I love the Nexus.

They already reviewed the HSPA GN and also reviewed ICS separately. The only things left for them to review are the battery differences, LTE, weight/size differences, and the compromises they had to make with Verizon. There was no need to review the entire phone again. Settle down.

Lol the VZW version gets 1 update (its first, btw) less than 24 hours before the GSM version and you say "we are actually getting them earlier than the GSM version has been".

lolol why does there have to be a class war between the CDMA and GSM people. Jesus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mean Bro Greene:
This, this, a thousand times this. It doesnt matter. They're both Nexus devices. Period.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrKleen1:
What I want to know is if the GSM version is able to hold a signal.

My Verizon version needs to be attached to wifi if I want to have any data. My signal ranges between -125dbm to -140. Of course it drops data and calls often.

The phone is darn near useless and I will not let the fact that I was so excited to blind me from the fact that the phone does not work.

I am going to go in tomorrow and do my first swap to see if it's just my phone. But based on what I am reading there are many many more.

Yes I did the battery pull, sim card pulls, factory data reset, calls to tech support.

I am very sad and disappointed that without wifi this phone is a dud. Plus the constant fight to try and get a 3g or 4g signal kills my battery in about two hours.

My Thunderbolt in comparison was a far superior phone. I am upset because I wanted the freedom of a Nexus. But it won't help if I can have data or phone calls.

P.S. I dropped my first call to tech support and looked down to see no connection.

BS review. There is only one nexus phone that has Google Wallet, the sprint Nexus S 4G. None of the other nexus phones including the HSPA+ GNex have it officially. How can a tech blog that should know that spend so much time using it as 'OMFG NOT A NEXUS'? Sigh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MMcCraryNJ:
So, even after getting confirmation that the LTE version is supported right along side the unlocked GSM version in AOSP, people are still saying this isn't the "real" Nexus?

Even after finding out that *some* models of said GSM-model, depending on where they come from, AREN'T supported in the AOSP, while the Verizon LTE version is, people are still saying this isn't the "real" Nexus?

Even after seeing that those said GSM models have *Samsung* compiled software builds and won't be updated right along side the unlocked GSM model, while we have proof that the LTE version's software was built directly from Google and will be supported/updated direct by Google, people are still saying this isn't the "real" Nexus?

Even after knowing that the GSM model, even the one with Google software builds, DO NOT have Google Wallet since this is SPINT-EXCLUSIVE feature for now, people are still saying this isn't the "real" Nexus?

What the hell does it take to make people happy?

* laggy video playback

* ! tethering option does not exists

* signal strength always show 0dbm in phone status

[Nexus S Android Development] ffosilva:
I think these problems are due to HAL changes. But at this time I think this work for daily use until official release of ICS for NS.
[Nexus S Android Development] krarvind:
you are right about 1 and 4 ( doesn't really matter it shows 0) on all ICS roms, but 3 works fine on mine and 2 i don't notice any lag but i haven't tested it extensively. Overall, very stable for me. Feel free to check it out.
[Nexus S Android Development] warranty45:
Alright I'm just checking before I choose to flash this, I should do a full wipe in my current recovery and then flash these via fastboot?

And this is probably a dumb question but why do I need to flash a new recovery?
[Nexus S Android Development] ffosilva:
You doesn't need to flash recovery. It's stock one.

If I add the widget button labeled "go to sleep", does this so anything different than just simply turning the screen off the regular way?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
I don't believe so, pressing the power button is considered putting the phone to sleep, so that widget probably does the same thing. It's useful if your button is broken or going to break and you don't want to press the power button to put it to sleep.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bignate78:
You will first need to root your phone then get 3e recovery, and then clockworkmod(cwm) installed. You will then want to flash GTGs community kernel to get red cwm. The flash GB bootloaders through either Odin or heimdall. Once up and all running, flash catyrom

you don't have to choose infused...use catyrom instead.

or you can also use adam outler's heimdall to get to 2.3, flash the recovery kernel and use red cwm to flash catyrom.

You just called a forum moderator a troll....

@AllGamer: OP is saying that the development section should be split. So there'd be a GSM and CDMA forum. Kinda like how the Nexus S forum is set (I see you on there from time to time). Nexus S & Nexus S 4G.. 4G being CDMA and the regular forum being GSM. In my opinion, I agree... just keep the General, Q&A, Accessories and Themes & Apps the same. But just add another forum for the LTE version and move all the LTE material over there. That way, people aren't flashing the wrong thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Agreed, the forum is flooded again with people moaning about tiny little things like the screen or MTP etc., it's annoying having to see them all over again now the LTE version has been released..

Another vote.

There should be 2 separate forums:

1- GSM/HSPA+ "maguro" (yakju and variants)

2- CDMA/LTE "toro" (mysid)

It's pretty clear going forward that Google is rolling out updates and OTA separately.

Right now, this seems to confuse a lot of new users. People flashing wrong images. And most of all, duplicate information and recurring questions all over the place.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brchickery:
Yup. Going to need two forums.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] planetes42:
I'm new to this community, but am I picking up on a little anti Verizon sentiment floating through these threads? Is there a reason for that? Or is it just that new lte owners are suddenly flooding the forums with questions and problems that were addressed already?

Regardless, since I've already wasted the better part of an afternoon trying to fix my phone when I flashed a gsm-only zip, put me down as another vote for well marked sub forums.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chhaggerty:
Yes, two different forums are needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Damn you Google. I feared that.

Why doesnt figure out how to make the roms all the same and have one upgrade path <\perfectworld>

Separate sub-forums make sense. I got my LTE Nexus yesterday and barely touched on the rooting/rom flashing and I can see it being confusing. I miss the good ole days.

It's really the only sane and responsible option. The dev section is already "cluttered" IMO; it's a pain to sift through the GSM only posts to find LTE mods/info, and vice versa. Go look at the Galaxy Tab 10.1 dev forum; we're going to become that without a split.

Wifi calling and mms

This has been a problem for me to explain as well. I just posted about this in the Juggernaut thread, and although I have some observations, I don't have a definitive answer yet. I suspect that, since Juggernaut was the first custom 2.3.6 rom that was widely used, other devs borrowed their work. Since Juggernaut had the problem to begin with, all the roms based on Juggernaut also have inoperative mms when wifi calling is enabled.

I guess this is a round about way for me to thank jlaigo2 for his original work. Since he created this rom all by himself, he never had the wifi problem. Hopefully, some enterprising dev will compare this rom to theirs to find out exactly what the problem is.

Here is what I posted in the other thread:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jlaigo2:
I did not use Juggernaut and mine did come before them so lets rule that out. Still working on a better fix but I dropped my phone and I am getting the replacement tomarrow. Expect something mid week.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AmbroseAI:
jlaigo2 - I think you may have misinterpreted my post. I gave you credit FOR creating an original rom WITHOUT using Juggernaut a base. Yours is one of the few where mms works when wifi calling is enabled. No fix required!

I simply congratulated you on a job well done! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
No. A fix is required. Although this is a great rom and apparently the ONLY custom rom in existence to incorporate Wi-Fi calling (I looked at every other custom rom on XDA and none mention wifi calling--what gives??), there still are MMS problems. The MMS pictures are:

1) Blurry/compressed. Any way we can get a custom option to have the phone compress MMS pics less severely? They're being compressed to somewhere around 10-12kb. This makes for a very tiny picture blown up which becomes blurry. I realize this is likely a result of T-Mobile programming/specs. Can we modify this somehow??

2) Half the time, the MMS pics do not automatically appear in the SMS thread. It will say "DOWNLOAD" then when you touch "DOWNLOAD" it says "DOWNLOAD FAILED" The only solution is to restart the phone then click "DOWNLOAD" then the photo appears as it should.

Other than that, excellent ROM, my friend. I really like it and glad wifi calling at least works!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Docmjldds:
Totally agree. And I have stated on several occasions on various threads that Zombie appears to be the one 2.3.6 that works. Your conclusion using the Juggernaut theory appears to be valid for me. But to add, I have an open ticket with TMobile regarding MMS issues and WiFi calling enabled and shrinkage/overcompression and TMobile stated it is a known issue...to me, anyways. My best work around is to use Handcent, the only third party app that seems to not overcompresss the pix files. With 1.2Mb settings for mms file sizes in the send settings for the app, I see 600-850kbs picture sizes instead of the postage stamp sizes 26kb or less. With 1.0 mms setting, it's still 128Kb sized pictures. I basically stated this again on another thread titled Found fix for blurry mms.

---------- Post added at 06:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 AM ----------

The major fix has to come from TMobile. I have an open ticket with them regarding this. And they stated it is a known issue regarding MMS and wifi calling and over compression. (But use Handcent, at least for now as a way to get around this, regarding over compression.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AmbroseAI:
Alternative to Handcent

I haven't tried Handcent yet, but will give it a go this evening. Another SMS app that solves the blurry MMS problem is esincho's CM7 MMS app. I posted about it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20806816&postcount=109

All credit to him - I'm just passing it along. The only thing I don't like about it is, although you get an icon in your status bar when you have received a text, there are no numbers telling you how many there are waiting for you like the stock app icon has. Oh, and (of course) it is cyan themed, so if you don't care for that blue color, you might pass on it... :rolleyes:
