[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Cptnodegard:
Been working on a modular mounting system for my 7.0 Plus. The basis was a headrest PMP holder I had, which I've modified in several ways.

The bottom has a connection system to connect a Wii Classic Pro controller for gaming - a bit top heavy and you need to have the main Wiimote dangling somewhere, but really not bad. This part is a plastic mounting clip glued to the controller with hot glue (colored, black). It has been reinforced with a system of metal rods to increase rigidity.

The top has a clip-on thing from a bag strap, where the matching piece is on a portable speaker. Not really happy about the 7.0 Plus' volume, so this is a nice snap-on for situations where I don't want to use headphones, like watching videos in bed. Again, black hot glue.

The back has a tripod mounting screw which is reinforced by a metal plate and held in place by, you guessed it, black hot glue. Right now I use it with a ripoff SLR gorillapod for hands-free watching in bed. Later I will be making a suction cup system that screws on to the same tripod point.

All pieces can be used together, although I'm not planning on doing so. It will mostly be tripod + speaker and gamepad alone
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] theundeadelvis:
Looks cool! How well is it weighted?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Cptnodegard:
Not 100% sure what you mean. With only the controller attached it's naturally rather top-heavy, but not worse than that I can use it as a hand-held gaming system. With a tripod it depends on the tripod - the good thing about the gorillapod design is that you can bend the legs to counter any imbalance. I've used that tripod in bed where I've been lying on my side and propped the 7.0 Plus up on its side by using two of the tripod legs on the bed itself and the last one against the wall to sort of lean the whole setup against the wall. Quite flexible that way.

The whole point here is to create a system that isn't tied down to a single setup. I already mentioned a suction cup mount, and another idea I have is for an extendable flexible arm mount to hold it. Thinking of using http://www.dealextreme.com/p/stainless-steel-handheld-monopod-for-digital-camera-42504 for the arm bit and then perhaps tie that in with another tripod mount solution on the other end in order to mount it on a large tripod.

Edit: found this which should be directly compatible with no further hot gluing: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/universal-car-swivel-mount-holder-for-camera-37975
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] theundeadelvis:
That answers my questions. I was mainly curious if it puts much stress on your wrists when you hold it upright by the controller.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Cptnodegard:
More camera tripod screw accessories arrived.

Lol a TV mount for a fridge are you kidding me? Lol i would love to meet some of you fellows.

Hi folks.

I've just been given this phone by a friend who has just upgraded to a Galaxy S2. I'm running a HTC Sensation myself but the handset looks like it should still be a useful upgrade for my daughter if I could get a custom ROM on it.

Almost all the DL links from the DEV sub-section seem down though. I did get Jazzman's ROM eventually but can anyone still playing with this device tell me if this is a good, bad or indifferent ROM to try. I don't want to waste time installing a bad'un.

I see from reading other threads that all custom ROMs seemed to have inherited a camera bug which could be partially fixed by reinstalling the default camera app (but no settings are ever saved). Did anyone ever get beyond that or did folks simply get newer phones and move on?

Lastly, if anyone still has a few of the old ROMS DL'd on their computer (Artos' anyone??) and could upload them somewhere for me and others to get access again, then that would be great.

Hoping someone can help. It's definitely too good to be binning it without trying something.....:p
[neoTouch S200 General] Crommy:
Same Request , i need a stable and the best out there , any suggestions , cuz the stock on full of bugs....
[neoTouch S200 General] helihui:
Hey Crommy, did you upgrade to the latest stock rom? That really soves most of the issues with the device and is quite decent by itself.
[neoTouch S200 General] Crommy:
there is no latest stock rom for me, i was using a EN-AR Rom B, the latest one is C with no Arabic support , so i downloaded brain master Manila , its Great !, it hangs 80 % less than the old one, Plus its faster,only issue found is the twitter tab when i login it says you are forbidden to use these account, at desktop and mobile browser the account logins normally.

do you have any idea how to install Arabic lang support for reading massages and contacts names?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RJNavarrete:
Sooooo many topics about faulty Nexii, granted those with problems or criticisms will always be the more vocal group. Just wanted to start a topic for those of us whose phones are doing just fine.

My phone makes calls, sends texts, receives e-mail, and browses the web flawlessly. I'm impressed with the speed and smoothness, and I would like to praise the team at Google/Android Development for such an awesome device. Cheers.

:cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] terencec:
Mine!

(GSM)

bought it from Bell off contract

screen is perfect (even passed the gray shades test perfectly!)

wifi never dropped, reception and call quality is awesome
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qreffie:
My GN has been working like a champ since the day I got it back in November. I had the issue with the keyboard lag buy cohort that fixed with the method listed on Droid Life. Live the phone, it's the best one I've owned yet. The display is amazing, I average 12-20 hours of battery life depending on usage and I can't keep myself from wanting to play with it all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
Love it. No issues.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luv2ride:
So far I've been happy with the phone except for the battery. I expected that however. I use mine a lot. With the extended battery I still suffer a bit.

Signal strength is a bit low at times but i havent had dropped or missed calls...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mavprick:
Mine is great so far
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AaronDC19:
Mine works perfectly :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vapotrini:
No issues here. Easily the best phone I ever owned. Wouldn't trade it for anything else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
Love this thread. Yes perfectly happy with my Nexus. I'd love to see more constructive conversation in this forum about customization and making our phones unique in form and function.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wendellc:
everything is great!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicastro78:
Came over from an iPhone 4 and was sceptical as I had many Android phones in the past and never was content with any of them. My Galaxy Nexus on Verizon has been stellar and I truly enjoy ICS. Google has changed my mind about Android and I'm very happy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fytek:
Works great and i love it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zehkaiser:
Came from Droid X. Nice to have a phone that works as intended.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhinck1414:
No issues with my lte nexus. Great coverage in my area so I don't have signal issues. Camera is iffy, but does the job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RJNavarrete:
Forgot to mention I'm on Verizon, but that's not really important. :P

Glad to see there are more out there who received a trouble-free phone. I just slapped the Extended Battery on it today. I'm charging it up at the moment, so I'm curious to see how long it will last me. I mostly use it for web browsing, texting, playing like 30 minutes worth of games, and a little Navigation and Camera use. I just went a whole week with the regular battery doing the same stuff I just mentioned and I was surprised that by 8 pm I still had about 15-20% battery life left. Keep in mind I do have 4G off the entire time.

Rock on GNex users!

EDIT: Also coming from a Droid X myself. It's lightyears ahead in every way. Such a wonderful device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwurky:
My GSM Gnex is working great. No multi touch or reception issue or screen problem. MHL works great and I even got the 40 dollar Motorola Bluetooth keyboard and mouse combo a week ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SomEngangVar:
When I first got my phone I had very noticeable banding on my screen. With use though I've seen it decrease and now its almost barely noticeable. At least to me. I don't know if it goes away with use or if its just me getting used to it but even on gray backgrounds like the settings screen and certain websites its almost gone. Other than that the only issues I have are usually just because most roms available are still in development. Nothing to do with the phone itself. Even the battery is more than what I expected and the screen itself just reminded me how much I missed samoled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
Mine is working just fine as well. I got it from Google when they were in our office and have been using it on T-Mobile or the past week with absolutely no issues.

My only gripe is that I did get an extremely small scratch on my screen simply by putting it in my pocket. However, I now have a screen protector installed which makes the scratch 100% invisible so that's neither here nor there.

I have no regrets about switching from my Galaxy S2 to the GNex. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schmoove:
No problems here. Good stuff!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cosimoss:
It’s been just fine. Been loving it since launch day. :)

Been an amazing experience with this phone so far :) Extremely happy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droid_does:
awesome battery yesterday on New years eve

18hours+ 2hrs 54mins screen time

spent at least 4 hours on wifi and 1 hour on 3G/HSPA

screen brightness was 30% in the sun, 10-15% indoors

GPS on

listened to music for about up to 4 hours; local storage on MP3

only bad thing......i forgot to take a screen shot ....I plugged it in at around 3% and just rmembered when it was half charged
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aspot72:
Had issue initially on 4.0.1 - the "volume ghost" and random ringtone change. Flashed 4.0.2 and since then no probs at all (touchwood). So far phone runs smothly with better than expected battery life, so not going to use custom ROM yet. Only rooted and unlocked bootloader (

after all its "open source" why should be anything locked on it???

)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] buzz1130:
Running fine and dandy over here..this phone is a straight up beast
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wgsesq:
No problems at all

Coming from Thunderbolt, I love this phone...not a single complaint.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malliktajmahal:
no issues except camera shots are orange at nights.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liverstealerJobs:
Gotta chime in again. Running Axiom ROM made this phone blazing fast. Not a stutter anywhere. Softkey mods with long press means I have my long press voice actions back! I am in heaven! My sixth and by far best smartphone.

Sent from the Galaxy Nexus far, far away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RonnieRuff:
Works fine!

Bounced off a cell tower near you by ICS and my Galaxy Nexus. Zoom Zoom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isitalex:
One problem with an error downloading from the market, one factory reset later, less than an hour to set the phone back up and I've never been happier. Fast phone, fantastic screen and with OTA updates its only going to get better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zeon45:
I Love my Nexus, just wish I had a working Google Wallet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sjankis630:
I really love the phone too, but how are you guys getting those long uptimes? I am on stock and i get only about 6-8 hours on a full charge. Now this is with 30% brightness, no wifi or bluetooth and a whole lot of browsing. Are you guys using the phone? I am not trying to be coy but someone posted in another thread how great his battery life was but it turned out he hardly had the screen on. I use my phone when it is on so i am seeing less times than most. I guess i am just jealous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JOHNGAETANO:
My GSM version has been great. Yesterday I was up for 18 hours and still had 45 percent battery left. Custom Rom, Kernels, and set CPU can do amazing things for battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I'm stock 4.0.1 and battery life is excellent (for my needs).

I don't keep the screen on for extended periods of time.

Yesterday: first full day with it, so newness factor is definitely there...

I believe screen time was around 2.5 hrs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Raptor1956:
No problems except the crummy battery life. I have the OEM extended battery (2100mAHr) but it will be a challenge to make it a full day with normal use without having to charge sometime during the day.

I find the size and shape to be great and it fits my pocket real well.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dawiseguy77:
Rooted, with android revolution HD ROM LTE version tweaked all stock by the way. Thanks to mike for the ROM. BEST EVER! Extended battery I think. My phone is still as slim and sexy as ever lol. I guess I'm saying I'm smitten by this phone lol. For those that have not done it root this baby and get mikes ROM. You love it now? After using his ROM prepare to be in pure never ending Xtacy. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Michigan Jason:
Love mine...coming from sensation 4g can't put this thing down...its so sexy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattywalnuts:
I've had the Gnex since launch day, purchased off contract from Verizon. Was seriously considering the Rezound, but why spend 650 on a device that imo is the same old HTC.

Like someone else said, when you pay top dollar, you expect absolute perfection...and you know what, this thing is almost there. I have the extended battery and Lte coverage in NYC is spot on.

My main beef is with the very weak vibration that the nexus puts out. I'm waiting for the next software update to root and use wifi tether!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stone 13:
There are a few small issues but far fewer than any android device I've owned before. Coming from a DroidX, I'm completely satisfied
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lodingi:
Mine is working fine and I love it. Problem is those dam Rezound owners make me paranoid. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
This is a milestone achievement. My GN, running stock ICS (4.01), is great. No problem here! Can not believe 4.0.3 makes this phone even better. Can't wait to get it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Mine is fine too :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Santoro:
Had it for a week and I could not be happier with my GN. I did pick up the extended battery, but otherwise I am loving it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
Love this phone. Came from a i9000m. This one is so fast and I love ICS. Only problem was when I first got it. Turned on before the SIM was properly registered so market wasn't working. Quick reset and it's been a dream. No pixel, multi touch or other issues, brightness is good for me.

Bought off contract on launch day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] websterzx10r1:
Coming from the HTC EVO 3D and My Verizon Galaxy Nexus seems to be running good will see shortly. I am wondering if there is really a need to Root it but i am a flashalolic and i know i will give in to the cravings of flashing shortly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FrayAdjacent:
GN working fine here. Leaving 4G/LTE off, I can get through a whole day and have about 50% battery left.

I'm not a heavy user, work nights, so no calls or anything, but I will use the browser and FML for my e-pinching needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elkniwcire:
my phone is truly amazing. I have seen a glitch or two but overall amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jjayr41:
Recently got my GSM nexus and running on tMobUS..so far so good. Runs fast and smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] firehazard:
Mine came with a crushed hook on the back door, but I straightened that out with my teeth (!) and now it fits fine. The phone has mostly been flawless otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Speedum:
My GN is performing fine! Battery life typically last a day under normal usage, actually for some reason the battery has a longer life as compared to day one after I receive my phone off Bell. The Big HD Screen is amazing! Love it! [upgraded from Galaxy S]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Taskman:
Had mine for roughly 2 weeks and love it.

Only thing that I encountered was that auto brightness is a tad dark. Nothing xda can't fix though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Entree:
I love this thing. <3

Rooted it within a few hours of ownership, now sitting with Bigxie's V6 AOSP 4.0.3 and Franco's kernel. Amazing device. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] purger155:
everything working very well....thumbs up for GNX.... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wase4711:
You should have never got rid of your ET4G!

I knew you wouldn't be happy with that POS Evo!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] soullinker20:
Mine's the Asian GSM version. Worked fine, only flaw is the landscape to portrait orientation that seem to stuck for a while and can be a bit annoying especially when lying down in bed.. other than that I'm happy I got these instead of the HTC Titan, I really love the design of the Gnex than the gs2 but imho, specs wise and screen display, it still belongs to the gs2... Q> how do you turn the vibration OFF when unlocking the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robt772000:
I love mine too. I came from a Checkrom'd SGS2 and so far its awesome. More video playback options would be nice but for only the second version of software its great. What will it be like in 6 months? I reckon amazing just like the Nexus 1 became with 2.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
With my own custom rom and kernel, I am perfectly happy. No glitches, aside from Google Talk eating battery. I stay signed out on my phone now and battery is even great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Icfatpeople:
Mine works grrrrrrrreat

God I love this thread! All the threads on xda about people complaining are really starting to get annoying.

Mine works just fine for my needs. Battery lasted long enough for the last 2 days and getting better. Screen's beautiful especially at high brightness but can enjoy that too much if I want to keep the phone alive. Phone calls haven't been tested but signal is strong. Overall a big satisfaction!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambert Verner:
Working like a charm here!

16GB, no LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frying_fish:
Mine has been working brilliantly since 30th Dec. Could not ask for more from it really. Battery life has been even better than my old HTC desire, despite using it as much if not more.

Oh, phone is absolutely stock, I've not felt the need or want to put a custom rom on this (unlike the desire).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WRrobby:
Had mine since day one and I haven't had a single problem with it. (LTE) Came from a Bionic that would go in and out of 4G but haven't had that problem with the Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jtech:
Mine was good at the start then it went really bad (battery).

I ended up turning off Facebook notifications and Exchange email from push to every 1hr. Now I can listen to music for over 3hrs and only use 19% battery.

Everything else is perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bpowder1966:
my phone has been perfect. no problems and the reception is ten times better then my DINC

Everything is great on mine. Root from day one but no custom ROM yet. Waiting for CM9.

Battery life has been way better since 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] exceleth:
After switching from Optimus 3D with a crap firmware full of bugs and defects thanks to LG, this phone has been nothing less than a space shuttle for me. Amazingly stable and fast, meets every expectation of mine.

The only time I have seen a defect was this morning, softkeys at the bottome (back, home, multitask) disappeared, had to restart the phone, other than that, flawless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sheepforwheat:
doing fine in/around Bmore. purchased from amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cbowens:
This is my third android phone (Droid Eris, then G2X), and I have to say I'm being continually blown away. I think perhaps the most amazing part of the Galaxy Nexus is the fact that I don't really feel the need to put a custom rom on it right away. Everything already works great with it, so I don't feel the drive to "fix" anything. I'm sure I'll play around eventually, but its really nice to for once have a phone that comes without major issues that need to be corrected. Bravo, Google and Samsung!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RacingManiac:
Mine had no problem....initially the batt seems bad but after rooting and flashing the leaked radio it seems to helped as the reception got better. Its been an awesome phone so far...

i'm starting to love my gnex more and more everyday...

i had bad batterylife too at first but since i've flashed the correct bootloader for 4.0.3 roms ( primekl01 ) my phone easily lasts a day at medium usage without extra charging

besides that it is by far the most beautiful mobile phone i've owned so far

i'm very happy with it :D

Working just fine. my first one was a lemon, rebooting , crashing all the time. Current (second) one, works flawlessly. great screen, no banding at low brightness levels that I can detect. Very good battery life compared to what I was expecting, based on the horror stories. Stock 4.0.1 Bell Canada.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JDQuackers:
Mine works great. I unlocked the bootloader, rooted and loaded up the ClockworkMod Recovery Touch Edition and haven't had a single problem.

Beautiful device
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
I was a little underwhelmed by the battery performance but there was also the "new gadget" syndrome going on *with* LTE (which I had not had before) so I completely understood why the battery was taking a beating.

Put on a new ROM, new kernel, added the extended battery and flashed the 4.0.3 radio and could not be happier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
Mines a gudun!

Was not overly impressed with the stock rom that came with it but after rooting and romming I think it is a great phone. Still not as fast as my SGS2 but still very happy with it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dakidhurricane:
Have not had a single issue with my phone. Screen is fantastic, no random reboots or freezing, and everything is snappy and fluid. I have had the phone for about a month now and its the first time I can really see me keeping it for the full 2 years of my contract.
