[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.go:
After two weeks of use, I'm seriously considering buying a case. I've already got two micro scratches. It's hardly noticeable unless viewed from an angle, but still... I've taken to wrapping my phone with a piece of cloth whenever I put it in my pocket.

But yeah, I love the feel of the phone on my hand, especially the textured back plate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Don't use a case or SP, but might be getting an SP soon once I can find one I like the sound of (dry application, NOT wet)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
No case or screen protector. Manufacturers should be able to cover that themselves. If the phone can't take day-to-day use and abuse..why would you buy another product from them? Exact reason why I started buying Samsung, never had a Samsung phone fall apart (yet). Plus, it has a contour screen for a reason.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gamesmaster20:
I keep my nexus in a gel case but that tends to collect dust around the edges. I do like the look of it when I remove the case to clean it, but I just don't wanna damage it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
My GN is naked and put it in Fitbag (soft pouch) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
My one doesn't have any "clothes" yet, but in the future i'm planing to get some screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
Well said! I have my Galaxy Nexus for 1 month : no screen scratch.

My previous one, an htc desire has been for 18 months in my pocket just next to my money and my keys...absolutly no scratch.

So... i don't want to troll but it seems screen on android phones are hard to scratch unlike iphone's one.

Yes, real glass is more luxurious...but not scratch resistant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyl3:
My nexus lives without a case also, no screen protector either
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
No case or screen protector. Don't really think you need either unless you are accident prone. Phone still looks brand new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
I keep mine naked and love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GR36:
I never use a case, the only thing that protects my phone from a fall. Is insurance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LaGgY_42o:
I know u said not wet but loom into the xo skins screen protector, I have it and u can't see it, it doesn't have that orange peel effect and feels good. Plus they can take a ****load of abuse lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Laird_Attwood:
All devices I have are naked bar XOOM as kids use it.

Still think of getting a case for nexus for when out and about but it's been fine naked so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calKno:
No case or screen protector. That's what I have insurance for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
My nexus always goes out (or in) naked. Except for the XO wet screen protector. I didn't have in my mind to apply a screen protector but heard lot of threads on screen getting scratched.

Had Xperia x10 before and didn't have a single scratch naked. Wonder why the supposed armoured glass of gnex gets scratched easily
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jameslepable:
Case when am out and then I take it off when I get In, naked feels nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kryptonian_Knight:
well good to know its not just me.lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
Precisely!!!

I never use a bulky, ugly case on my phone. Why!?!? It's a device that usually costs half a grand. Am I going to get pissy hands and food residue all over it? Hell no.

I don't know how people can abuse their electronics so badly. I don't protect mine like it's a newborn child or anything, but I'm generally just not a retard when I use my phone so I've never had problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superchunkwii:
One my previous phone (fascinate) I originally had a full zagg wrapper. Then about two months ago I took it all off as it was starting to peal and I didn't want to pay $$ to have it replaced. Never had a scratch on it at all as I just took care of it. Never put it in a pocket with anything else and never dropped it.

So, with my gnex (two weeks old) I have it fully naked and intend to just leave it that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ceo.mtcl:
Naked, haha

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] falconeight:
It feels to thin for me without a case
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstang2006:
I stopped using case/screen protector/.... after my 2nd smart phone.

I realized I was just taking care of it for the second owner on ebay.

Naked since the Nexus s and enjoying it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gnexdude:
+1 This. I was a bit skeptic of screen protection, but xoskin on my nexus you can't even tell its there..it was a bit weird to put on being that its wet but once your done it looks awesome. I have the Verizon holster combo for grip and it does feel better on my hand...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cordell507:
i have a super thin tpu case that i actually like better than naked and a dry screen protector that came with the case
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donutman:
If i pay 500+ for a phone, im not taking any chances. I want it in near perfect condition till the day i sell it. Accidents do happen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
Naked lies my baby at home....:) when I go out or at work I got a cheap 3$ white hard case that just looks pure awesome,much better than my amzer,barely there and diztronic lol...

But yes,I also have a xoskin up front and bse on the sides to protect against dents n stuff.....I m crazy,I know.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spovat:
like others have said, this phone is too gorgeous to put a case on. It's one of the major appeals over other options. i was hesitant to put a screen protector but after hearing great things about steinheil I went for it and it's barely noticeable. looks naked unless inspected closely. maybe it's just me but I marvel at the design and sleekness of the GN daily. just comes down to what you want out of it. for functionality only, go with a case and have that ease of mind. If you highly value the looks, you wouldn't be ok with one on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
Mine is naked as well! No better feeling than the slickness of a phone and the smoothness of the glass screen!

sent from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstang2006:
To add;

It is funny that some people (not saying any of you) complained that:

- Nexus has a pentile display

- or that LTE version is a hair thicker than the GSM version

yet, they have no problem adding plastic protector on the screen or bulky cases.

:confused:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] arkatis:
It's been a while to install and test WP7 on my hd2 and i decided yesterday to install Mango builds. I have tested 2 builds and they are saying that my SD card is damaged and needed to be changed. My SD card is fine though [Kingston 16gb class 4] and i've tested it a while back and it worked just fine with NODO builds..

Is there a problem with Mango? Just asking because i can't see a solution to this and if you search the forum there is only one unanswered question.

The only solution is to use another card?

I 've tested a Chinese 8gb class 4 card a while back and it worked flawlessly. Maybe this is the answer! Buy Chinese cards! :D

It was a SOPA protest, but I guess they did it a bit wrong since that's the page ICE uses when they detain a domain. The SOPA page would probably be different.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
I think the point being that you'd see that page more and more often if the legislation were passed with sites being taken off-line. Bearing in mind that there have already been too many of those ICE placeholders springing up online.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jetbruceli:
I had a chance yesterday to get a new phone through my carrier and I was looking at the GN, Gs2 and Galaxy Note. I have my g2x right now with my Asus Transformer Prime. I am not quite sure on why I see so many devs jumping to the GN when it doesnt even support a microsd card. I mean if anything the gs2 is quite nice but then I was thinking, why? I love my G2x and I have yet to see anything really over turn it.

I mean my prime yes gets updates frequently (Including ICS) but I dont see a huge difference in speed and true performance on those 4 cores, my g2x is fine and doesnt need replacing yet and I am sadden to see all these wonderful devs jump ship to the GN just for maybe ICS or whatever.

Just letting my thoughts out there!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
I like my galaxy nexus because its a great all around device. The camera is bad ass. super amoled screen. 720p screen resolution. Battery life for me has been excellent 24+ hours per charge easy. Mine is the unlocked GSM version so no worrying for carrier updates that will never come.

Not to mention all of my fellow Team Kang members have one. I have had absolutely 0 issues with my gnex. And last but not least! Did I mention its a nexus?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Simple answer would be its a nexus device and the camera and the 720p screen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
Why wouldn't devs jump on it...? It's straight from Google and nothing is closed source. While you have the G2x on the other hand, where nVidia doesn't release anything for their processor.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jetbruceli:
But as a phone its not mind blowing compared to the g2x. And still it does not have the horse power to really make "Me" switch just yet

Nvidia always!

Hi,

Due a problem updating the bootloader, the phone had a soft brick.

The only ROM I was able to flash after that was a 2.3.6 Vodafone 4.5.1-134_DFP-139.

As I understand this ROM wasn't downgradeable and now I have a standard bootloader.

Can I install a new bootloader? How? Can I root this ROM? I wish to install a CM ROM.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad english.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheAtheistOtaku:
Hi im just wondering i want to buy the sprint version of the sII, and i just want to know when will the first phone bill be do. I will be switching from cricket to sprint. Im ordering it off amazon wireless. Depending on the answer i may have to wait till next week.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fenixjn:
The device itself varies from about $50 to $100 with contract. Sprint, like all other carriers, will bill you a month in advance so the first bill is usually double the expected depending on the plan you choose.

Also, keep in mind that Sprint will also bill you prorated on your bill cycle, for example, if your bill starts on the 25th they will bill you for these 4 days that you have service (starting today, the 19th) on plus one month in advance plus the current month. So say your plan is $75 per month, your first bill would be $75 (advance) + $75 (regular) + $75 * 4/30 (4 days in service) = $160 + taxes and fees. Afterward, your bill should be around the original $75 plus taxes and fees every month.

Keep in mind that they do a credit check so you might be expected to pay a deposit per line depending on your credit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shahin26:
Your Billing cycle will depend on the day you sign up. After you sign up you will receive a bill within a week or two. The first bill will include your first month of service in advance, activation fees, peroration charges and all of those utility taxes we all love. So its usually higher than the others. You will have about three Weeks (I may be wrong here) to pay it. Sprint CS is usually able to give you a pretty close estimate of the amount and the due time if you call them. Hope this helped a bit. Welcome to the SGSII community.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluejee:
your 1st bill will be huge because you are either getting prorated for the month you are in and then charged for the next month + all the act fee, taxes, and **** they tack on. or you get charged for 2 full months. 1st bill is always brutal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheAtheistOtaku:
Guess I'm waiting till next week then.thanks for the help people.the thanks button will be hit
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Just to add: Ask about Employer Discounts

The hospital I use to work at was in the Sprint database so I was able to knock off about $25 a month from my bill. In this economy every little bit counts.

if asking for sim-password, maybe your service-provider can help.

asking for lockscreen -> boot into recovery -> wipe data/factory reset

If its the sim password after three tries it will block and ask for the PUK, even that has a number of limited tries if you get the PUK wrong the SIM just dies and you need to go to your provider for a new one. So be careful....

. When asking these questions, and if u have already read the posts carefully, Please include your phone model,FW version, kernal, and build. It helps others help you. For one, You will have to have an unlocked BL, WHICH is dangerous if you don't know what SAFE mods you can perform. So, be sure to make backups of everything before flashing anything.

Hi

When ı was using Nokia n8 there is a screen saver app which is very useful when ı locked the screen it shows some animation and time.

In additon to this you can adjust time interval for night and it become more visible that hours so you can use it as a digital clock.

However although I downloaded a number of application for my note. These applications works like aother applications I mean if you close the screen by pressing power button then screen totaly offline. You can only see the digital clock while screen is on.

So I am sure iti is my mistake but if you can show the right setting I can use it.

Is that possible to have an app like juice. Defender which is found in android?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dr.8820:
I think an app like this would be great.

Sent from The ACSyndicate Tower using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
[Windows Phone 7 General] chrislynch:
Why? Windows Phone doesn't need an App Manager, unlike Slutdroid. When you "multitask" away from an app (by either pressing the Windows button or holding the back button to switch to another app), the app is then put into a suspended state. It cannot process any data, or do anything else. Now, the Background Agents within Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) are used for continuous processing when the app isn't running, but is only given 10seconds of execution time, and on a lower priority thread queue in the OS.

So again, there is no point for an application like this in Windows Phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
There's no need for name calling, you had a valid point but your name calling was unnecessary and largely discredited you.

I don't know...slutdroid was kind of funny. Anyways, his answer was spot on. Windows Phone doesn't have multi tasking like Android, pros and cons to both methods but I personally prefer the way Windows Phone does things.

i mean i like an app which on/off things at a scheduled time like what juice defender does.

I don't think slutdroid is considered namecalling since it wasn't directed at the OP at all. Plus there kinda already is something like juice defender. Its called battery saver and it can be enabled in settings.

in some cam apps you can adjust this by setting the 50 or 60HZ compensation, the stock cam of the note does not show such an option, maybe it tries to do this automatically and this fails in your case!

As you can see that the pic with the blue lines are using ISO800 settings.

The other pic taken using ISO Auto have no issues.
