Done and rooted. Pushing APK's now.

I would recommend doing a full wipe first. I think something got corrupted during the forced wipe when unlocking.

After wiping, I started over. Unlocked and flashed the boot.img. Got a full normal reboot. Flashed it a second time, and it stayed at the google screen and i could connect to it with ADB. Pushed all the commands and rebooted. Works great.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wessiide:
I assume you need to have adb installed before doing this? Or do the command prompts perform from windows?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fatsix:
I had it previously installed. If you download the zip. its already in there, just run it right from the directory you unzip it from.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgreemo:
I've experienced this as well with the stock rooted ROM, not just SOS. I've found the issue to be something to do with the accounts setup and possibly the Peep app.

For email clients, I'm using Touchdown for work and Enhanced Email for my personal accounts, set to Push, so I have the Exchange settings under Accounts on the phone not syncing at all, since I'm not using the stock email client. If you see the sync notification going, check your accounts/sync under Menu>Settings to see which account is running and you can toggle it off and see if anything bad happens.

I also have seen that removing Peep caused this issue as well. Seems that Sense ROMs have a tight integration with Twitter and FB, so when I removed Peep with TB, the phone started syncing almost continuously even though I don't have a Twitter account. I reflashed the ROM, which restored Peep and it stopped syncing.

I hope this helps and good luck.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scary Guy:
Basics:

So I just got the lapdock from the AT&T store and it's pretty neat (especially the part where I don't have to sacrifice a computer monitor for the phone.) I was screwing around with it a bit and I had just reloaded The Darkside 4.2 ROM and it comes with HDMI already hacked (which I still want to use as well, just FYI) and it was working fine.

When CM to 2.3.5 webtop (found elsewhere on the forum) it shows the phones display as on with the trackpad/buttons. Not a big deal since the lapdock's screen hides it nicely. The problem is that now the keyboard/pad on the lapdock proper don't respond to any input at all. Just tested my external keyboard/mouse through the USB ports as well with the same result.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Is there a setting I can change to switch active input? Even better, is there an app that can provide a shortcut to such a toggle?

EDIT: Solved! All that was needed was a reboot.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChicoKiri:
Try rebooting your phone and giving webtop another go. If you're still having issues, go into Recover, wipe the OSH partition, and re-install the 2.3.5 Webtop via fruitcake.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyblaster:
I'm trying to confirm whether or not ICS ignores DHCP obtained DNS settings. Could someone with a Galaxy Nexus and the ability to sniff wireless traffic (or at the router level) check to see if it's making queries to Googles server (8.8.8.8) or the DHCP obtained server?

I'm running a preview build of ICS on my HTC Incredible and it's querying 8.8.8.8 instead of 192.168.1.1. I'm running a dual stack network so if I change from DHCP to static DNS settings, I see strange behaviour. After a short while on static IPv4 settings, only DNS AAAA record lookups are attempted.

Using Gingerbread 2.3.7 (dhcpcd 4.0.15 instead of ICSs 5.2.10) on another Incredible, the proper DNS server is utilized.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyblaster:
An easier way to check is to connect with adb and run the following:

> adb shell
$ getprop | grep dns

Using tcpdump I've confirmed that the Incredible running ICS is not requesting DHCP option 119.

The DHCP ACK packet is missing both option 6 and 15 and therefore the DNS property is showing 8.8.8.8
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyblaster:
Terminal emulator anyone?

$ getprop | grep dns
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyblaster:
Nevermind. I found the problem. It was with the preview build on the Incredible.

dhcpcd.conf, interface != eth0

I recently bought a Google Android tablet off of eBay and I am a little disappointed that it is running Android 2.2 Froyo. I have a T-Mobile LG G2X, which I have rooted and installed CM7 on with GB, but I have never owned a tablet before and am rather at a loss.

Is it out yet for the nexus? Cause I need it badly, I keep thinking I have it lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
It took me a few days to stop trying to swype. I tried SlideIT, ended up liking the stock keyboard more.

To actually answer the question, apparently they have not updated it yet for GNex screen resolution.

Lol thanks. Yeah I keep catching myself "swyping" oh well I'll type like the common folk for a while haha jk

I used to be a swype fanatic... nothing seemed as fun or efficient. i installed and uninstalled SwiftKey about 3 times before just settling on it due to really appreciating its predictive text capabilities and accuracy. also the fact that it learns your style so well. so ya, try it out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daleski75:
The thread title is misleading as others including myself may think it's actually out when it's not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nrfitchett4:
screen resolution shouldn't be a problem, I'm using swype on my rezound. Maybe an ICS incompatibility???

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
I agree.

Vote for OP to change thread-title.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
It's incompatible because swype doesnt see the resolution because of the Softkeys on the bottom (Screen res. is reported a little less then 720p).

As to getting an update on it...Doubtful there will be any before early 2012.

As I understand it Swype got aquired by a different company (Nuance), so they are in the "thinking box" trying to decide which software should be implemented where...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nrfitchett4:
good to know. Sometimes being on the cutting edge is a pain. Lots of games I have don't work on the Rezound or are sized wrong.

I've been in the swype beta program for Android for about 2 years and still waiting for a bill to buy the product. Maybe through the acquisition by Nuance there could be an investment to make it a product (OEM licence or end-user) and then engage the developers to finish the excellent work started by the first team.

Start with ICS and pick up some of the tablet market too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dspcap:
I agree. I haven't figured out in slideit how to do web entries. With swype, you would just swype from the w to the period... but with slideit, it doesn't work. Also, the same with .com.

---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

Reason I like swype is because I like staying in portrait mode. Do you find that you can do that with swiftkey? Also, do you select the fast typing or the predictive text mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nrfitchett4:
It's not the resolution that is the problem. Swype works fine on my Rezound. Ics reports screen resolution differently, which is why it can't scale. They are working on an update

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
What's so funny about what I posted? Valid question considering you can only download Swype if you're on the beta. If you're not, then using it is technically warez
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SupraN0va:
In this case u think , you are maybe wright.I am not a lawyer. But this is an Port from galaxy note, and ports are not warez , or am i wrong?

vaffanculo403	That one does not work. The keyboard is VERY VERY small.

Also 3.26 Swype is MULTIRES , works on my SGS2 perfectly and on galaxy note.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
it would be considered WAREZ if you apply the Swype from the SGS2 or any other device to your GN, even if you change the skin to work on 720 res
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shane_huskey:
Actually it is the resolution that is the problem. ICS does not report screen resolution any differently than Gingerbread did. That would be like saying that the built in clock reports time different than your Rezound. Pixels are pixels. The problem is, the Galaxy Nexus does have a different resolution than your Rezound when in normal operating mode. The Rezound is 1280x720 at all times, whereas the Galaxy Nexus uses 96px of it's screen during normal operation for the on screen buttons, hence causing the actual screen resolution to be 1184x720.

On another note, since quite a few people seem to be hung up on the possibility that distributing a fixed version of Swype is against XDA rules or possibly even illegal, here is a easy solution. Download the official beta, then do a search around here to find a thread that gives exact instructions on how to edit "display0_SwypeScreen.ini" which will get Swype working on your device in portrait mode. Landscape will still be jacked up, but don't get too picky about it. Your other alternative if you really need Swype is to take your Nexus back to VZW and let them know that you aren't able to use a Nexus and that you need to trade it for a RAZR or Rezound.

To mods:

If modding the files in the official beta is also against XDA rules, sorry. If this post violates anything, feel free to delete it, or just send me an email and I'll delete it. Not trying to break the rules or step on anybody's toes, just trying to help out.

It's actually still in the OS and isn't that hard to do. You don't even have to go into the contacts list or dialer.

Step 1. Click the Google bar at the top of any home screen.

Step 2. Start typing in the contact's name.

Step 3. Select the contact and tap the phone number to call.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volfman:
Not the same thing... first of all, searching that way doesn't only show contacts, shows a bunch of other crap you may not want and the contacts aren't even listed first. Second of all, using the dialpad to just type in the name is *much* quicker than doing it on the full keyboard.

I agree with everyone else on this thread, it would be awesome to have that back. One thing I'm missing from my Dinc2

Try 3rd party dialers like RocketDial

The T9 search feature actually can be done in application layer

I did not get Nexus yet, but I am using the i9000 with ICS porting. I am using RocketDial as my primary dialer . RocketDial actually has been optimized to work on ICS . It is definitely the best smart dialer I can find . Smarter than ICS stock dialer at least :) joking. You can search through dial pad (T9 search) or you can search through text search bar; You can search in name or phone or company ,or email or notes, or websites.. any other field in the contact.

Not sure whether RocketDial works on Galaxy Nexus or not , but you can have a try . Free version is here .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foxehkins:
You could always push the mic icon and say, "call blah blah" voice functions are awesome.

Been using Dialer One for 2 years now. Can't find anything better.

https://market.android.com/details?id=kz.mek.DialerOne&hl=en

You can set it up to work the same as a BB dialler. Start tying and it searches across names and numbers at the same time and shows you matching contacts or log entries. There are several UI options too and the dev seems active.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
The T9 dialer, aka the one called smart dialer here, is patented technology. Since Ice Cream Sandwich is open software, Google does not implement technologies into it that it is unable to cover with its own licenses. As a result, Android 4.0 does not have it (and likely Android never will).

HTC implements T9 since they are licensing the technology.

*Bam!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DeezNotes:
Go Dialer also does this. I wish it was stock. Thanks to the last poster. I didn't know that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YevS:
Both HTC and Samsung own the T9 license. Google could have asked Samsung to extend the license to the GN, since it is a Samsung phone...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T9_(predictive_text)

Incidentally ICS and all other versions of Android uses predictive text, just not using a numeric keyboard.

Also, for some unknown reason the search bar at the top of GN does not search across the call log.

I also noticed that typing in 0189 brings up all my 01895xxxxx contacts, but typing in 01895 asks if i want to create a new contact. It appears the search is only on the first 4 characters.
