[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
My Galaxy Nexus is running great. I have had the phone a few weeks now and I am running Revolution HD 2.1.2 - this is by far the most stable ROM I have run on an Android device to date (previous owner of a Motorola Atrix, Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Hero, and Motorola Droid) and my battery life is pretty decent. Add to it the two extra batteries I have on hand and I don't have a complaint in the world about this phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Taomyn:
Still pleased and still running fine after today's OTA update to 4.0.2 :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] republitarian:
I have noticed this as well sometimes. You can also quickly lock and unlock the phone and it usually brings the buttons back. Saves you the time of rebooting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Not just fine. With the new xxkl1 radio, it's better than ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ramanan27:
probably the phone in the world.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schrickm5:
Running bigxies 7.2, and all is very well, battery life it's great, running lean kernel 1.5.0. Great combo, will probably give francos kernel a go next.

What a phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrbeck:
Rocking with Nova Launcher and awaiting Omega. Love this phone coming from DX2. A few quirky annoyances but what sw doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] panathinaikos13:
I received my replacement phone on Thursday and ever since then I've been loving this device. battery, screen WiFi is working great... no freezes nothing bad to report yet

running on 4.0.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonyoung:
My GSM Galaxy Nexus is working fine. I have no issues with battery life, sound quality, or anything that I have seen others report.

The only changes to the ROM on my phone were that I unlocked the bootloader, flashed the stock Google 4.0.2 factory image instead of waiting for the OTA update, and rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Z51:
Mine works flawlessly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
Mine is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
1 week in, so far everything seems to be working great. I have not crashed or had to restart. On stock 4.0.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gnexdude:
lol...this thread is very funny, but necessary for ppl undecided about this great phone...oh mine is outstanding!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleach168:
Just activated my Nexus.

Display looks great.

GPS works fine.

WIFI and HSPA+ work fine.

Made a call.

Played with face unlock.

Looking forward to playing with NFC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] modidlee:
Had the same GNex since launch day. No problems at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
Seriously, every time I get a new phone I get home and root it and bypass or unlock the bootloader because there are dead simple guides instructing people how to do so.

Even after flashing ROMs and manually applying mods, I virtually never have problems with my phone unless it's a thoroughly documented bug. All these people come on here with apps crashing and hardware failures... I don't know what the hell you guys are doing to your phones. Do you soak them in water or drop them on the cement???

I don't know what it is... these forums can be so negative at times. I virtually never have any problems with my phone and I'm far from a genius. This community has helped me so much and even if I did run into problems, a fix shouldn't be hard to attain. This is an amazing phone and I'm very satisfied!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chowy993:
Hardware wise, my GN has no issues at all. If I were really picky, then I would complain about the battery life, but thats my fault for not being able to put the phone down :D

Software wise, I love ICS. I have seen a few bugs (nothing that an update couldn't fix though), but for the vast majority of the time, it runs silky smooth :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xarthos:
If my phone were more rock solid it would actually be some form of solid rock. It just works. I am amazed how incredible this phone is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.rule:
had mine for about 2 weeks. with the exception of battery life (which is getting better) i dont have any issues or complaints! i think its rebooted once on me. but i also do have it running GummyNex and all that fun stuff. GREAT PHONE!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RED_:
My brother just got this today, got him to sign up here, he's a total noob so prepare for the retarded questions :D

Anyway everything works perfectly, only thing to check is the battery now.

One thing that did screw up on setup was adding the gmail account. I added it, then when i went into the calender it told me to sign in, so fair enough did that. But weirdly it added the same gmail account twice to the "Accounts & Sync section" so i had to delete them both and add my gmail account through the calender app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frankdeale:
Works great except in certain places I can't get 3G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jjrudey:
Works fine besides when I need to reboot because of lag. And service isn't as good as my Droid was, but still good enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
No problems with my phone. In fact, I'm annoyed with all the bad publicity this phone is getting all over the web lately. I'm more annoyed though with the amount of *****ing people do on this forum now. I wish anyone who's sooooo unhappy would just get rid of the phone already and let the satisfied users talk in peace.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mark manning:
Completely stock at the moment and mine works just great. The number of people complaining is unfortunate but that is basically what xda is now. Probably gonna head over to rootzwiki where there are more devs, less complaints, no attitudes and a lot fewer noobs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chaoticjerkface:
I purchased my Verizon Galaxy Nexus the day it went on sale through Verizon and I havent had any of the problems people have been complaining about. I love this phone and is currently the best phone you can buy! If you are curious, I upgraded from a T-Mo G2x and before that a T-Mo Nexus One. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eldinnie:
hear hear. Mine's perfect
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rye&ginger:
Stock ROM and a custom one run brilliantly.

Battery life is improved from the Galaxy S Captivate I was using.

Audio seems to sound better.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wongandrew:
Just flashed a Yakju stock rom and it's running great
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmiegeddes:
I'm rooted and running the stock ROM and have never had a problem, no spontaneous reboots like some are reporting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvc:
I'm rooted and running ARHD 2.1.4 & Jame Bonds kernel and everything is really, really fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krausy87:
Mine's working fine too!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
Mine has the low brightness grain but i'm used to amoled so it wasn't a surprise. Mine also makes a pop noise 3 seconds after the last sound. I can't get a repair or utilize my warranty because I bought it from ebay (brand new and sealed)

I also paid near 900$ for mine and was probably first in canada with one.

After all that, I still love this phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malchom:
Bought on release dec. 8th here in Canada! Works perfectly!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] larryvand:
Mine works perfectly as well (GSM - Galaxy Nexus). It is super fast, super smooth, and it has by far the best browser out there of any phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmscritic:
Bought a BNIB one from a guy and it's working beautifully. No complaints on battery life either, I just turned off all of the "sync" and check for updates options in all of my apps. I'd rather just have them update when I open them anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lexcyn:
Just got mine a couple of days ago on TELUS. Running stock 4.0.1 still (no OTA update yet) and everything is working fine. Battery lasts around 17h with 4h screen-on time.

One thing I didn't like was how low the auto-brightness was, but downloading "Lux" from the Market fixed that ... also, Lightflow was a godsend with the notification LED.

Love this phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ksc6000:
Mine is also working great after I "downgraded" back to 4.0.1 from that atrocious 4.0.2 update
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jaevlar:
Working just fine. (GSM)

Although i have som sort of scratch (!?) underneath my display. Only visible if its on a dark background and if i tilt the phone in a certain angle.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikeairj:
Other than the weird wavy/wobbly camera issue, my stock GSM Galaxy Nexus is working great. I trust that the camera issue can be fixed via a software update, so I'm not too worried about that. The battery life is better than my old Samsung Epic 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tree of Knowledge:
Mine works just dandy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] P500:
My Nexus fuc*** rocks! Was and will be every cent I spent on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mandabar31:
The screen died on my first one after about a week, but the second one has been great so far. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brochs:
Mine works just fine, but what a big set back to find out FB sync is not working, almost makes me want to go back to SGSII.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
i've been building from aosp ever since phone was delivered to me. never saw weird issues so far. started building kernel too. still no issues, maybe except for slow auto-rotation, but that is software related, afaik.

i'm totally addicted to this display and touchscreen. great uv'er. otg rocks. who needs a sdcard slot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MERKJONES:
Incredible phone. I upgraded from my G2 (G1 before that) and I love this phone. Just got it yesterday, so I can't really say if it's buggy or not - but so far so good. I can't keep my hands off it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rgoyena:
What is a SD card slot? Lol. SD cards are for losers. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natepalm:
It's far and away the best phone I've every owned. Couldn't be happier!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzzaD:
embarrassingly, its my first smartphone ...but its been awesome so far!

Running franco kernel 12 with Android Open Kang Project - maguro Milestone 2 ..battery life and performance is awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mayze23:
Best phone there is! I love my Gnex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Guto ViP:
I'm here!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a4840639:
The screen seems to be quite blue, I know it is very common for AMOLED.

The only thing disappointed me a little bit is the battery life, such a huge screen is really a battery killer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] da_hool:
Mine is working fantastic but I had to go through a few before I found one without banding, tinge, or a creaky battery cover!

Loving it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daz.g:
I'm really happy with my nexus, I'm even quite happy with the battery considering what it needs to power. Just flashed my first rom and can't believe how easy it is compared to phones I've had in the past. Guess that's the nexus way!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TonyHoyle:
Mine has worked great from day 1. Battery life is fine.. ICS is snappy and looks cool (even my apple owning friends are impressed).

I'm now so used to the large screen when I use other phones it feels wierd! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
One more happy GN user here!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Laird_Attwood:
my gnex is behaving it's self at the moment.

Came to it via Xperia Play then SGS2 (android wise) both of these had random reboots all the time (daily-weekly) as my partners HTC sensation does as well. Looks like it's not just an Android thing ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onkolog:
Perfect....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chumbagen:
Woot!

Best phone ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] keskincene:
Running flawless with bigxies Rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nexcellent:
1.5 months of use, still no issues. Best phone i've ever owned.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Joeyv:
Ya know? People can complain left and right about this and that, every phone has issues that hit some and not the others. I love my Nexus. As far as issues are concerned? Maybe one or two, but nothing damning and alot less than most phones I've had. I didn't get this phone with the thought that it would never have an issue, I purchased this phone because I know that well over a year from now, we will have devices that will still be relevant (through hackery or otherwise) and that feels pretty freaking good. My apologies if I came off ranting, but I'm glad someone decided to create this thread to counteract the microscope created every time some sort of new flagship comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 6jaipur6:
I love my SGN all is ok with root custom rom and kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D623:
I was having issues with consistent reboots but ever since I reflashed the stock software with Odin and it resolved my issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdamHart612:
Loving it like no other. 2 months of ownership today, averaging 24 hours with 4 hours screen on time. Didn't use my phone for 12 hours last night and lost only 6 percent. Cm9 + Franco on conservative and its buttery smooth with no slowdowns even swiping quickly through the app drawer. Awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JRJ442:
I've had mine since launch day. Unlocked and rooted on my way to work the next day. Never any issues. You'd have to shoot me to get this phone from me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donovanc.williams:
Loving my Galaxy Nexus, I have yet to run into a problem and am getting pretty decent battery life as well. Was considering buying an extended life batter but with the Revolution HD ROM that doesn't seem to be necessary. This is by far my favorite phone I've ever held.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MagicMan3:
Besides being a little hard on the battery its a great phone. I was reluctant to sell my S2 for the Nexus, but I'm glad I did. The screen on this phone is 2nd to none.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chiups:
Beside two random reboots yesterday, I've been going strong for 5 days!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tidbits:
Bone stock first day of release and no problems for the majority. Couple of data outages which affected the country. I had 1 restart but I believe it to be an app issue. Depending on the day I average around 10 hours. A few times I have pushed it to 18+ hours. When I do that it's more than likely I pull a double to triple shift.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Too many silly posts. The hardware is fine. Flash customized roms to see the difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsc619:
I absolutely LOVE this phone and have had 0 problems so far. ICE is so much better that previous builds and I think it's safe to say my days of switching back and forth between android and IOS are over.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsntrenkler:
So far I have not had any issues. I love ICS and really enjoy the size of this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilfighter:
This is my 5th android phone, and it's the best one so far, and one that I finally kept for over 2 weeks. Finally feels like android has matured enough.

I rooted and flashed to ARHD rom within the first week of owning the phone. It was perfect. Then I got restless and tried AOKP rom, I'm currently on build 17, and I'm sitting on 1 day and 1.5 hours, with screen on time of 2.5 hours, and 15% batt remaining. It's awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k20igor:
LOVE IT!

I love my phone.

Battery=great, especially with the extended one

Screen=AWESOME

Looks=Beautiful

Overall this phone is a lot more than what i was expecting. Good job google, keep them coming;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tj6225:
I have my ICS running just fine.

For the battery, I have GSM version with only 1750 mAh, I don't know why people think they should have a device that runs at least a full day or so. We all know battery tech is not keeping up with hardware/software tech. I accept around 5% idle speeding on an hour. Well, I play Order and Chaos, It drains to the hell in 2.5 hours. On normal use(no games), I have over 12 - 16 hours and at least 4 hours screen time depending what apps I use. That's what I expect/accept.

For the system, ICS is the top mobile OS in the wild as least I think. Rarely reboot itself. Just keep in mind this is a feature!

For the design, it's like Lady Gaga on my hand. Sexy, smooth, slim, easy to hold. But I have still put some clothes on...just a cheap plastic case and a cheap screen protector on.

Overall, this is the best phone I have so far. Keep up the good work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] njackson-uk:
Very happy with the phone, stock ROM is fine. Camera is fine with decent light levels. Battery lasts longer than my old HTC Desire, which is awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bakili:
Loving my Nexus, works perfect. 5 days using it now. Had so far no reboots or any lag in performance. Love new multitasking.

Can anyone explain please on side of phone there are 3 golden pins, what is it for?

+1 for this thread.

Flawless phone (for now)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BuddyJoe83:
After flashing stock 4.0.2 Yakju build from Google's page, I have no problems whatsoever anymore.

Battery is great, speed is lovely.. no complaints!!

(still looking for the damned 'special battery cover' .... but that's another story :cool:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CB620:
My only complaint is Adobe Flash lol. Other than that the phone is flawless to me. Battery is improving for me as well with my rom/kernel combo. This will hold me off until the sgs3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
Whats wrong with flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
It's slow. And flash-content is never designed for touch or mobile so usability is seriously bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
It's not that slow in my experience. It wasn't even slow on my D2. The touch is a bit of a problem, but it's sure as hell better than not having it at all. You know you can just disable it right? What I'm getting to is I don't understand how this is a detriment to Galaxy Nexus... (almost) all Android devices have flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Sure. It's not a particular detriment to the gnex. And yes. I disable it on all my Android-devices ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tidbits:
The Nexus shouldn't even have it installed unless you installed it. If it causes problems for you why do you leave it installed? Seems like wasted space :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonwaite:
Got mine yesterday and am loving it. Gonna root it and get my TiBu backups from my ICS Captivate up and running.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Geezer Squid:
You probably don't need me to say this, but please do not restore any settings from those backups to your Gnex!! :D

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edved:
Had mine a week and it's been flawless so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SouthernEvo:
I have had my phone for about two weeks give or take . Awesome phone and no issues what so ever . Glad I made the jump . Although Im ready for the Seidio extended battery . I text , facebook and use the phone alot LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MLonon:
Have had my phone for less than 1 month but, no problems to report from my end. Battery life was total crap at first but now it is stellar!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikekid7:
This phone is awesome, except for the battery issues. I have an extended battery but not happy with the life. Besides that. The best...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] throwbot:
amen

Agreed, absolutely love this phone. Had some signal issues (and battery wouldn't last for ****-- I have the lte nexus). Both problems have been fixed with the 04 and 06 radios, and my current rom and kernel have definitely eliminated the battery problem. Absolutely love this phone. The only thing I could possibly look forward to would be the next nexus or the Google tablet if it happens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] odin13:
hi,

just want to say that everyday i love this phone more and more...

i own the gsm version and with all the improvements going on this device just

gets better every friggin' day..

batterylife is now up to par with my desire hd so i'm not complaining about anything at all..phone even got dropped a couple of times and the screen is still without a scratch...

current setup:

rom: AOKP Milestone 2

kernel: Glados 1.4

baseband: XKL01

bootloader: KL01
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Robin M:
I just moved up to Verizon's version of the GN from a Droid X2. The GN is not perfect, but it's a HUGE improvement. I unlocked it and rooted it before setting it up because I'd read that unlocking it later would wipe all my data. But I've got no immediate inclination to try another ROM yet. Everything is running fast and smooth, just as it is.

Got tired of the ICS launcher interface after a few days (didn't like the stacked icons in folders, and who needs Google Voice Search on every page?:rolleyes:). So I went back to ADW EX, which runs perfectly on this phone and preserves the most appealing ICS enhancements.

I got the Verizon extended battery at half price plus 20% off with the new phone, and I never have to charge it except overnight. (About the same as I was getting with my Droid X after several tweaks for better battery life.) The minimum CPU speed is already set low enough on the GN to preserve the battery at idol, and the fact that I turned off LTE probably helps, as I don't have that service in my area yet. Don't seem to need an application killer and no need to tweak the minfree settings. Google seems to have finally gotten all that right with Google 4.x.

I was lucky enough to have gotten the i515.10 hardware version, rather than the older .09 with which some folks had experienced connection problems. (If they had sold me the .09 version, I'd have exchanged it right away for the newer one. Learning about stuff like that is one of the biggest benefits of XDA membership.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] toasterr:
I upgraded from an LG Xenon, so this thing is amazing in my eyes. Even if it had screen or battery issues I probably wouldn't care. Tried out the RAZR, the Infuse and countless others and in my opinion this is the better device.

My GNex is working perfectly. Not one instance of screen banding, whites are white, blacks are black. No reboots or sleep of death.

The first thing I did when I got it was check the white levels and gray levels. All spot on. Phone runs like a champ. I send about 300 messages a day, listen to music all day, and generally work the phone to it's limits every day, and have 20% at the end of the day. I was expecting much worse. Living in Canada it is VERY cold, and I can't find a hairline fracture that some people seem to have, though I don't think I've had it long enough. I've had one instance of lag when I tried to download about 15 apps and then browse the web. When I got it I was scared of dropping it, and a TPU case solved that as well. My only complaints are the speakerphone and the USELESS stock notification light, both remedied with apps.

I like not having to deal with Robbers and their crappy OTA update schedules too. Mine is yakjuux, so it's updated by Samsung, but I trust them more than Robbers. I may flash the yakju image anyway and get instantaneous updates if I feel so inclined. But that's another post altogether.

And I haven't even rooted it yet. ICS is amazing and I don't think I'll tire of it like I did Gingerbread on the Infuse and RAZR.

I've had it a week and a bit so I'm still in the rose-tinted stage, mind you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sin Solo:
Just got my Galaxy Nexus. And its amazing. Went from G1 to Nexus One to Galaxy Nexus. I can't believe how good this is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysteriousDiary:
Got mine since mid december and I'm loving it. Everything runs fine and I didn't had any issues. It's also the first Android phone I had where I never had a reboot with (except one caused by flash) and also the first where I like the stockrom that much that I never thought of trying a custom rom so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joemarzi:
Had a palm pre, thought that was good when I got it 2 years ago but this Galaxy Nexus S just blows me away!!!
