I don't know about 4.0.4 but I've read about 4.1.0 being in tests.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/02/verizons-galaxy-nexus-updated-to-android-4-1-0-finally-ready-t/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EKnofsky:
Not that I am saying 4.0.4 is real, but everyone going they haven't released 4.0.3 yet, if they pulled 4.0.3 for a bug, there is a good chance the next OTA would be more recent than 4.0.3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
The 4.0.3 is IML74K so we can assume that IML62 is an old build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
Yes, the article is from dec 2nd ... but if the screenshot is real then there might be a version of 4.1.0 under development.

Anyway, no matter what will come out, it should be better that what is currently available so I'll accept it. Until then, I'm very happy with what I have now :).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
how that possible? I am down to 50% battery with only 35 min screen time and 3g only. Right now on stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fregor:
I believe that build got scrapped and the version number got revised, that is todays 4.0.2 or 4.0.3

The next version that will rollout for Nexus will probably be > 4.0.4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
It is possible:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1462260

Using 3G only, I can get 4 and a half screen on time with plenty of standby time.

Btw, correction to OP, the battery drain bug will be fixed in Android 4.0.5. I got inside source, trust me :) :) :) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
It was briefly announced as 4.1.0, but in fact it was 4.0.3 since Google wanted that to be the base build of Ice Cream Sandwich Android 4.0. Confusion was a result of 4.1.0 including API's that are not available in 4.0.1, so it is more than just a bugfix, including a number of new features. But Google downgraded that to 4.0.3, so that all new Android devices would start off with that instead of 4.0.1 due to the API's.

4.0.3 however was pulled from Nexus line due to bugs and we'll likely never see 4.0.3 (Transformer Prime runs 4.0.3 without problems though). Instead we will see 4.0.4 whenever it actually arrives (possibly in 2012).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knightrise:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fregor:
Are you refering to Diane Hackborns post about the calculation bug in the battery stat diagram? In that case, there is no battery drain bug, just a faulty calculation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ouilsen:
lol. Are you serious? That's the very definition of a bug. If a faulty calculation causes battery drain. It's a battery drain bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EKnofsky:
I feel like getting 4.5 hours of screen on time + 15ish hours total on stock 4.0.2 represents a non buggy OS
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fregor:
Yes, I'm dead serious, thanks for asking.

(and please include my quote when quoting me, do not modify it to match your own perceptions)

Go google Dian Hackborns comment about it and you'll get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
Two conflicting statements if ever I did see some.

So a faulty calculation is not regarded as a bug? :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
You don't fix battery drain by fixing a wrong reporting calculation. So there are two different issues being discussed. The battery drain is very real. If stay awake time isn't a clue to the reason, it does not negate the fact that the issue still exists.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fregor:
(entire post can be read here https://plus.google.com/105051985738280261832/posts/2FXDCz8x93s )

This is the main reason why the os is reporting high drain on wakelocks or - use of the "android operating system" - because the screen on time isn't subtracted from this.

As long as people are using the battery stats for their own personal interpretation of battery drains, we won't get to the bottom of this before this calculation bug is done with.

Hence the spread reports of battery drain - people have different setups and apps installed.

I have no "drain" or whatever you may call it on my stock yakju. Posting my current stat: (in swedish)

This is what I expect from a phone of this kind of spec.

Apologies to OP as we're definitely sidetracking here..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
Check your screen settings.

I'm on 4.0.2 : if i set my screen to auto then battery life is amazing, far better than any known android smartphone to me.

But...if you set it at 50% or more, then battery life became awfull.

My settings : screen on auto, no animated wallpaper, and wallpaper set to full black.

Black wallpaper on amoled device is good, because black don't need power.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] z06mike:
Root that bad boy and flash the new radios! See if that helps out with your battery drain. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
it might be a bug, but when they fix it the battery wont last any longer. it still will function the same, just the calculation will be corrected. no difference on battery performance though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diomark:
Stock 4.0.2 while IN san francisco (ton of wifi signals around), %10/drain/hour while idling.

Stock 4.0.2 while travelling (hotels / one or two wifi signals) - ~2-3% drain/hour.

So there is a battery problem for sure.. most likely related to location services and wifi signals.. (or just sorting through the interference)

-mark
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HcMAX:
Thanks for the Google+ post...that's, the issue....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
Ok I will try that, so your wallpaper is boring then if it full black? LOL

But yeah that all makes sense. Also are you 3G only or 4G?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackbanjo:
I have pretty miserable battery life with 4.0.3. It's not unusable because I have chargers all over the place, but it could certainly screw me over on hunting/camping trips.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
if i have to turn the brightness all the down to 10 or 0 percent and did all kind of things just to get more life.. i rather use an iphone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabster21:
Oh no you DIDN'T!!! *waves finger from side to side furiously*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
I keep my screen brightness at 100% 24/7, and it's easily enough to get me through a full day of good use with two hours of screen-on time. With light use two days is certainly possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] var1126:
Buy the external 2000 mAh or 3800 mAh battery?

Don't forget, iPhone screen is 3.5" vs. 4.65".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
What is your wallpaper? Maybe that makes a huge difference.

I just put mine to full black and auto curious to see what happens over next day or so.

on auto brightness, and have this nice vertical band...so not going to work put it to 50% and looks much better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
;-) This is not boring for me !

I do the same on my Windows desktop.

More relaxing, no need to be disturbed by a stupid wallpaper.

And yes i'm on 3g only, on orange France network.

About 6.5 mbps down, 2mbps up in Paris.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
Yes, on auto screen battery usage won't go over 48%.

For vertical band it's a known issue with amoled devices at low brightness settings.

On my Galaxy Nexus vertical banding is not a problem if brightness is set at least around 30%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
lol people still don't realize that there are TWO G Nexus. The GSM and LTE version. Obviously the LTE version will not get 4 hours of on-screen time.

Those that are saying they are getting 4 hours on screen time with DATA enabled ALL DAY are most likely using the GSM version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
I try anything less then 50% i see the band and it right dead in middle of screen.

Oh well..50% it is then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
Oups... seems you have a very bad screen.

I'm running Future-bigxie's 4.0.7 based ROM, which is really awesome. But importing the unicorn blood from the Ukraine was a major hassle, CITIES permits and biological exemption certificates are required for shipping it. But this is the way of the future .. so it was worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skynet11:
As you'll notice from this screenshot

I'm more of a pedal to the metal guy who likes max brightness. I also OC to 1.35 Ghz, and my phone is almost always on heavy use. I feel like obsessing over battery life on a Gnex with SAMOLED HD is like obsessing over fuel economy in a Ferrari ;)

I'm not referring to having a natural concern about battery life and maybe lowering brightness, or deactivating LTE and syncing for a while, especially if you don't always have a charger handy.

I'm referring to obsessing to the point that you deactivate everything that differentiates a Gnex from a 2004 RAZR feature phone (some have actually suggested such a radical course on this forum - I have to wonder why they even got a Gnex to begin with). That's what I liken to driving a Ferrari at 25 mph on the Autobahn to conserve fuel ;)

Terminators run on Android :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skynet11:
Incidentally, being performance-oriented more than battery-life-oriented doesn't mean I don't take some steps to save on battery. One example: many apps, such as the Rootzwiki/tapatalk apps and various irc clients have the option of using a black/dark theme - a feature I usually take advantage of. Also, stock Android itself has a dark overall look and feel mainly for the purpose of saving some small measure of battery life. It's not just for eye candy or differentiating from iOS that the settings dialog and other elements of stock Android theme are black.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tsekh501:
When the next OTA for Galaxy Nexus comes, it will probably be 4.0.4 or 4.0.5. There probably won't be much different from 4.0.3, except some Galaxy Nexus specific bug fixes.

Current OTA available for Galaxy Nexus is 4.0.2, and that for Nexus S 4.0.3. As seen in the past with Gingerbread, this "0.0.1" incremental updates were usually updates that came with device specific fixes. Although 4.0.3 does come with some new features, it is mostly a bring-ICS-to-NexusS OTA.

I'm using MCR Ir9, which is a 4.0.2 rom right now and I'm getting good battery life. I don't see any Android OS related battery drain, although I do notice the battery is dying much faster if my screen-on time is long. After a month of use, I have come to the conclusion that this 4.65" screen is a big battery killer, and this is not something that an OTA can fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Nexus S doesn't entirely have 4.0.3. The ota was halted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dark lord me:
I expect 4.0.4 to just give us a big error message ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoZhU:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
0 percent brightness sounds horribly unusable. :-P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:

Actually 0% brightness on the GN is more than enough in a dark room. It doesn't look very pretty though.

I run mine around 15-20% and it's plenty bright indoors.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
0% on an amoled screen is off.

Whats the definition of zero brightness? ;)

I remember some folks with Fascinates by using a 3rd party app to reduce the brightness to zero. The phone would boot up, then the display would go black lol. Made it hell for fixing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Whatever it is, it's not "brightness slider in the leftmost (0) position". :p

LOL better be careful or someone might actually think there really is an xPhone.. or a yPhone or the ultimate one would be a zPhone with 4.0.5 hexa-core with RAM in the cloud so it's unlimited!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I actually use 0% brightness most of the, I only turn up my screen to auto brightness if I'm outside and I can't see the screen due to the sun.

I can't say iv ever noticed any of this banding which people speak of. I use a mostly black live wall paper, nexus revamped off the market free. There are some things that greatly help battery life like turn off vibration and sounds on key presses and turn down the screen and GPS off and use wifi where possible as it uses less power than 3g. Add custom kernel with under volt and 1 whole day can be easily achieved without charge with moderate usage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] animaleyes76:
Indeed , 4.0.3 has a higher baseband for a start :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Veritass:
Off topic like everyone else. I always have brightness down to lowest about 0-5% depending how I feel. I get some.more time and I use my gnex a lot (pics to come) (currently useing my KF )

[TouchPad General] JayGB2011:
Hi,

I currently have moboot 3.0.2 and xron 2.91 but wish to return to stock webos then install latest moboot or the touch based boot menu then install ICS

I have a few queries first...

How would I achieve this? WebOS Doctor?

Is there an app like Titanium for WebOS? So I can back up some webos based apps?

I would like to shrink the WebOS partition as it's hardly being used these days, Is this possible?

Which boot menu do you suggest? I have the splash screen error at present due to using the old moboot, I understand this issue is fixed in the latest version, Does the touchbased boot menu include this fix?

When running WebOS doctor which firmware of webos does it install? I have a few issue's with preware coming up with errors when opening at present.

Can I still install preware on the latest webos version?

What are the main issues when using ICS? Is the WiFi still flakey? Any other major bugs?

Thanks in advance
[TouchPad General] demichve:
Ist there a reason to go back to stock webos?

I would propose to install moboot 3.0.5 and one of the ICS ROMs. That's it!
[TouchPad General] JayGB2011:
Have issues with preware, Lots of scripting errors upon start up.

Also would like to shrink the webOS partition to give more space for Android.

Do you have ICS on your TP? How does it compare to xron's gingerbread builds in terms of bugs?
[TouchPad General] viny2cool:
Use ACMEuninstall to remove Android completely. Then use webos doctor to clean ur webos. Many guides for how to use those tools in dev section.

The bugs in ICS depends on whose ROM u r using. But definitely buggier then xron/cm7.
[TouchPad General] JayGB2011:
Which ICS ROM do you recommend? For the best user experience?
[TouchPad General] viny2cool:
first rule of XDA, never compare any roms..they all are good for different purposes...right now all ICS roms are almost same...from the Team Xron version is not officially released..so dont expect any support there...your other option is CM9...which is officially released and u might answers for them in the forums....

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucian777:
The PM chipset in the Note doesn't support ma reading. Battery Monitor Widget readings are more or less accurate because the values are only estimates readings.

I have just found that Battery Monitor Widget can cause wakelock and you could end up with battery drain.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatanZ:
There is a battery management chip - MAX17042 in the Note, which does support current (mA) reading. Reading the relevant registers does give results that are dependent on the expected current draw, but I have not yet found the correct function to convert raw values to actual milli amps.

Download: New 'Experiments' Gmail Feature Shows Up In Android 4.0.3 - IT'S ONLY FOR ICS 4.0.X

Here's How To Get it On Your Android 4.0+ Device

[Updated x3] just before the download link.

It has been two weeks since Android 4.0.3 started rolling out to the Transformer Prime, which made it the first tablet to officially receive the update.

In Android 4.0.3, however, a new Gmail feature has been uncovered by ComputerWorld that is noticeably missing in its 4.0.2 brother: experiments. Sounds dangerous, no?

If you want to read more => News from AndroidPolice

Update #1: We just tried it out on Honeycomb (3.2) and it worked just fine.

Update #2: The apk <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="13" android:targetSdkVersion="14" />, meaning Honeycomb 3.2 is an absolute minimum.

Update #3: Gmail runs on 3.2, but force closes upon opening emails, so we wouldn't recommend installing it on 3.2 after all (go to Settings > Application > Gmail > Uninstall updates to revert if you've already installed it).

Download: Gmail 4.0.3-239410 (Mirror)

So I got scammed as **** yesterday, bought a HTC HD2 from this faggy kid on ebay and it turns out it doesn't work. Camera doesn't work, many buttons are laggy, some dont even work at all and the biggest issue I have is it cannot be connected to PC. I put it on my USB cable and when I run HTC Sync, says its not connected.

It's got some ****ty beta Android installed and I'd like to get WM back, but seeing as how I can't connect it to my PC, I'm out of options. Anything I can do?
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Flash a wm ROM via sd card method.

Make sure you choose correct version ROM/Radio for HD2 model type.

Personally I would go for WM6.5.3 ROM from NRG (you should have HSPL already insaled if on fandroid.

Buying from eBay is a dodgy game, eBay is full of ****e from china or faulty ****e sold as working.

Does it look like screen been replaced ! i void sticker missing from under battery cover on 1 screw head ?
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Get your money back and buy a decent one. I'd file a dispute through eBay if the phone wasn't as described in the listing.
[HD2 General] Anden1986:
First of all: relax! :) Your problems sound software related and that can be fixed! Can you boot the phone to bootloader (hold down vol down while turning on)? If yes then try to connect the phone to the PC - the display on the phone should change from serial to usb. If it does that it means your usb connector is ok and you should be able to flash WM :)

/Anders
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
I wouldn't play with the phone but rather file a dispute on ebay, you're under their protection :p . No seriously, contact ebay and ask for a refund, they'd probably ask you to send the phone back, but you'll get your money.
[HD2 General] aco036:
There's no way I can get my money back.

I'm more concerned what I could do with the phone. Seeing as how I don't have any device that supports microSD card other than this phone, I can't do the booting, but I guess I could get it from someone. Also, volume up button isn't working, though that was mentioned. Is there a guide on how to do this via memory card? I got the ROM downloaded, just not sure on what to do. Wouldn't wanna do something wrong.
[HD2 General] blazinramirez:
Hi there,

I read you installed HTC Sync. The drivers for the HD2 are in the Windows Mobile Device centre so you need to download that. You need to install the HTC drivers 3.00.007 and uninstall the sync. Then install the Android SDK kit. This worked for me for android and windows. If this was helpful for you, just hit the thanks button!
