OK, so I agree with your statement about the iPhone and how it really never changes. Would I buy an iPhone on purpose? No.

But, if I were a software company and needed a platform to publish my mobile software on. I would choose IOS because the UI and base platform haven't changed very much. It makes it easier to to get one app to millions of users without constantly updating code for newer platforms. So if you want a device that you really can't customize but you want the newest apps before anyone else... go get an iPhone

or

You can get a GNex... it kinda feels like Google finally knows where their mobile software is headed. I believe that ICS is the first Android OS that can actively compete with IOS for developers.

Android OS 4.0 feels like a much more polished product than the other OS releases. Its a much more substantial upgrade than 1.6 to 2.0 or even 2.2 to 2.3... it also feels and reacts better than 3.0.

That being said I believe that the GNex is a great phone but any phone running ICS will be just as good. But without ICS the GNex is just another phone.

So lets take a new approach and not complain about apple vs. Google vs. Microsoft... but let's have a little fun and enjoy the fact that we have such a great diverse choice of the devices that one day will control every aspect of our lives.

Yeah, unfortunately you're going to have that everywhere with enough people there. But... If you guys can report (Triangle in upper right corner) the disrespectful ones it makes it much much easier for us to weed out those who don't contribute anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbeebe24:
Well said OP. Its funny to see people complaining about things they don't even have one brain cell to comprehend. I greatly appreciate the technology and the brilliant minds that make these things possible. Even if I personally don't prefer a certain device, I can still appreciate the vast technological advances we get to play with

Yea but seriously, am I the only one hating the notification screen on ICS? I'm using GNex as my main device since one month (the GSM version) and I really dislike the notification screen. It doesn't get better with time, actually quite the opposite, it frustrates me even more now.

I can't understand why they would waste so much space.. maybe some relic of honeycomb and big tablet screens?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I mostly agree and liked your post. Except for the control every aspect of our lives part. Yeah mobile technology is very handy and convenient and an awesome tool but I don't want anything controlling every aspect of my life. Leave your phone at home a day and see if you can make it. If your life becomes too "hard" without it, methinks that person needs to step away a little bit.

In that particular notification, 9,785,158 different people all added you on Google+. Frankly, I don't need or want my device to tell me about two dozen spammers from India adding me to their circles, which seems to be a nearly daily occurrence.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] macfre:
What you are talking about? In that particular notification, exactly two people commented on a post I commented before. The text of that very notification was displayed fully on iPhone.

Oh, I see what's the problem now: it's impossible to tell what happened by looking at that notification on ICS. So, you see now the point I'm trying to make.. it's broken - looks ugly (the icon is ridiculous) and wastes screen real estate. Doesn't give any clue what happened.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KWKSLVR:
No, what I'm talking about is that multiple people replying to 1 thing, or, getting 50 adds is great and all, but notify me ONCE, with it stacked like that, not each time for each one. If I had 50 G+ notifications to clear, I'd be PISSED. See, a notification is suppose to tell you that there is a message. The message is suppose to be the.... message. If you want your notifications to tell you the contents of your messages then I suggest sticking with the iPhone. :p

Or, you could turn on email notifications for your G+ activity which will tell you what I think you want it to tell you in the notification window. Out of all the things to rabidly complain about, that one is pretty trite. But at least with an Android there's a chance you'll be able to change it to better suit your tastes (or just stick with the iFone). :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piperat:
Basically what he's saying is phones are like soups. If your plain jane, go buy a can of soup (iphone). If you gotta have it your way and like big flava go buy the ingredients (android) and make it the way you like it. Nuff said.

Sent from a R3TRO styled GUMMYNEXED beast!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] macfre:
G+ is just a (very good) example why I think those notifications are ugly and could be done much better in ICS.

Lack of the possibility to preview a notification on the stock lock screen (locked with password/pin/pattern) or the possibility to disable grouping for GMail notifications is a completely another thing. I would like to have an option to enable or disable those things at will (i.e. be able to customize it), you apparently are happy with the way Google wants you to use it, without a possibility to customize it. Fair enough.

But I don't understand why you are trying to defend that G+ notification. Why display me 4 words in huge font in one line, hiding the important information, and an extremely tiny monochrome icon on the left. When I get a few text messages, some emails (and I'm using two email clients so that doubles the number of notifications), some G+ stuff, it's really hard for me to read anything on that notification screen. It all adds up, and the extremely small, barely readable, tiny "g+" icon doesn't help.

Continuing this thread is pointless; obviously I hate that notification - it is really broken in my opinion and I can't believe how someone could have designed something like that, and how it passed any tests - and you like it. Well, I hope that it will be fixed at some point in the future and people like you won't moan that they want they ugly, almost useless notification style, back ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ben1000:
Howdy....

I have a few questions that I'm hoping you can shed some light on....thanks in advance!

1) My home button jumps to the 3rd homescreen. This is different than on my previous Galaxy SII. Any way to get it to jump to the first homescreen?

2) When I switch to SVOX Classic TTS, and use Google navigation, each voice response goes on for 2 minutes talking about http this and that, with lots of garbled words. Sounds like it's describing an XML or HTML web page. Has anyone else seen this?

3) Chome to Phone is crashing. Is this just an update thing I need to wait for?

4) Jump Desktop also crashes... Also an update thing?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Best,

Ben
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Since I can't help with the other questions.. I will just go ahead and say that yes, the home button jumping to the third homescreen is normal.. Touchwiz does it differently, which is why the behavior is different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AaronDC19:
Just to add most android phones I've had (two HTC and now the GNex) and the customs roms I've used (Sense, Blur, Vanilla, Liquid Metal), pressing the home button always led to the middle Homescreen. Samsung I guess really did copy i*hone (as much as I hate to say it). :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstdk:
2) Yes, I've experienced this as well - newest Maps and SVOX Classic with the U.S. English "Grace" voice. From earlier TTS problems I recall that it's explicitly logged (viewable with logcat) what is sent to the TTS engine, so maybe this could provide some clue.

3) Chrome To Phone works well for me, on all iterations of ICS (stock and custom) that I've tested.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jumpdesktop:
We've fixed this crash. It was an ICS only crash.

Grab the latest Jump Desktop update (2.6.11+) on the market and you should be good to go!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ben1000:
Thanks for the responses...

Jump Desktop works fine now! Thanks for the update!

Still hoping for a SVOX TTS Update.

Is there any way to re-arrange the homescreens. Now that I have screen 1 setup, it's a bummer that I'll need to switch everything over to #3 to get it working. This is what happens when you migrate from a Galaxy S II. Is there an app that lets you switch home screens around? or the like?

Chrome 2 Phone seems to work now. Not sure what my issue was. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] seanzscreams:
Ciq well I honestly believe it.doesn't matter

Maybe battery is the only real saver

With or without ciq you still send texts through a system

You still have to pull data

You still went to CNN.com on.4g and they had to process that and send data and receive data back and forth

and carriers can see that whether or not ciq is there

And they say they cant see

I say BS

Comcast says the same thing

They look at the aggregate data

(mmmmmhmmm)

The only way

carriers.couldn't track you I.see is.Unless you're always wifi and texting through Skype..

But then your ISP can track you

But then your so paranoid you use free Wifi hotspots.to stay hidden

..then you probably shouldn't own a smart phone

I honestly believe its people being over paranoid

If you own a smart phone your being tracked with or without gps..

Position can be triangulated based

off of cell signal

I prevented ciq from actually starting on 2.3.6

So its there and not.. but to completely remove

It and still think you're not being tracked is crazy...

If you commit a crime and they want to know where you've been .. Im sure all they really have to do is ask google

Cyanogen or not

Just my thoughts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ironcrotch:
Please don't rationalize that putting a keylogger on my phone without my knowledge is somehow okay because they will find out whatever I do anyway.

Sure they can read your texts, or tell where you are, that's the nature of being connected. But being able to log everything thing that is done on my personal phone is not okay. It goes beyond just being connected to the network, it's shown that it continues to log when you aren't connected to anything. I also don't care what it's used for. It can be used to find the cure for cancer, it doesn't matter. If you're going to invade my privacy in such a way, at least tell me up front so I can tell you to shove it.

This is like saying you can put cameras in my house because I shouldn't be doing anything wrong in the first place and if I am I will get caught anyway. Or in the case of what CIQ is saying, we'll put a camera in your house and record it, but we won't watch it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] seanzscreams:
Love it I def agree .. I just know the recording and not.watching is getting worse.. And ciq proves it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phoneguy589:
I think they can get get all the info they need without CIQ so to me what's the point of adding it? I think (my thoughts) it is more for LTE tracking and usage being it is new for At&t. I'm not worried but the more data my phone uses at some point I think will result in adding "to" my usage rather than them "At&t" deducting from my used data. When or who deciphers what is mine and what is theirs each month?

I have uckj1 on my Captivate currently. I'm planning on runnning Illuminance based on UCKK4. According to the instructions on Illuminance's site, I'll need to install UCKJ3 with bootloaders first.

I'm not sure if I already have bootloaders. I first flashed uckj1 with Odin.

After getting UCkJ3, would I use Odin to get in the Cpativate and then do it again with the Illuminance zip?

Afternoon guys.

I'm wondering if someone could do me a massive favour please.

I'm working on a project for the GSii and I require high resolution photos of the PCB (both sides) inside an MHL adapter.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajiteh:
I was making a call to some one and my friend tried to call me at the same time the call I was dialling got connected. I saw his name come up on call waiting but before I could do anything the dialler screen froze for 5 seconds and the went blank.

It didn't respond to the power button or ADB so I had to re-seat the battery to turn it back on. However, after the reboot my phone keeps vibrating every 10 seconds. It does that while booting up, while shutting down, while hibernated and even when it's in recovery. The only time it stops doing that is when I get in to the bootloader.

I tried wiping and switching kernels/radios/roms but none of em would make the vibration disappear. Except for the annoying vibration rest of the phone works just fine. I just had this phone for only 3 days and rooted it yesterday. This is really frustrating me, if any of you guys have any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi, I searched for this and didn't find what I'm looking for. If I put in this question in one long MiniCM Q&A it will likely never be seen.

Market in MiniCM? I never log in to Google when I install MiniCM. When I later go to use the market, the app is in system/app (vending.apk) but I can never see the app or use it. Why? I've tried installing other versions of it and nothing. I'm tired of reinstalling the ROM just to install one or two apps from the market.

Any ideas why this happens, how to fix it, does it happen to any one else?

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheThoth:
Hello,

Just got what was marketed as a Galaxy mini here in Canada from Mobilicity. I notice that it is quite different to what is being referred to as a Galaxy mini here. The one I have does not have any physical butons on the front of the phone, only 4 capacitive buttons. It is model number SGH-499y. I found it on Samsung's website here.

I am intending to upgrade it to gingerbread, as it is only on froyo now. Even though this phone is different from the one discussed here, will the guides and the ROMs here still work? I am just worried that it won't recognize the buttons or something (is that possible?).

I also did find this guide. Which would have me upgrading it to the european version, and then I think I'd be able to install Clockworkmod and flash a new rom. Is this a better idea?

Thanks for your help,
