ello peepz..

this is my 2nd smart phone i had xperia arc before for almost 2years

arc was kinda slow for me thats why i upgrade for a new one

i know this is a rare case for gnex i already research for this issue

for example i play games get the phone hot but i know its normal

when its hot and i open the camera

it says "cannot open camera"

there was no clear fix for this one only battery pull and on/off

tried all great roms AOKP,CM10 and now STOCK still getting this issue

in my arc i can open camera no matter what temperature of my phone

Got my Gnex today. :)

ive talked to the one ive bought it with.

he said he bought the Nexus 4 at the customs around 16k only -__-

he even also bought an iphone 5(16gb) for 22k.

i guess the device is legit but the transaction is not :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rhed:
nice work on the Nexus 4! i thought they were yet to release it (in the US) at November 13, but i guess suppliers were eager to sell off their supplies fast :D is that the 8gb or the 16gb version?

also, iphone 5 at 22k? meh. still not worth it. :silly:

I'm not really looking forward to updating my phone right now. I'm just new to this OTA thing, and I just want to understand how things work. Maybe I'll wait for 4.2 before I update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prinzhernan:
I agree. Better that you understand the process first before doing anything. Lots of people brick their phones because they don't take time to read and understand what they're doing.

Besides, if you're happy with how your phone is running there's no need to flash and flash. You'll get the OTA eventually anyway through your phone automatically so no need to hurry.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
Got the OTA, but something happened. Andy appeared with a warning triangle.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
You on pure stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
Yes. Got the 4.1.2 a month ago and it updated just fine. Now it didn't. Will it update again? Or should I flash instead?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
Should update again. But for some reason you're not alone in the takju ota issue. Some have reported errors as well on full stock. Could be something wrong on the server side. You can wait or flash. I've yakju so I'll just wait. My n7 is on 4.2 anyway. Hehehe
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
Alright, I'll prolly wait then. Anyway, not being able to order the nexus 4 is killing me. I need a US account and a US CC, aaaaand, it's also sold out. :(

haha same problem here. oh well. will still look for ways, if all else fails, RELATIVES!!

Back to topic, decided to just CWM flash the update. thanks for the help! :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanismo:
Fastboot is the way to go. Flashed from yakjuxw 4.1.1 to yakju 4.1.2. Then, just recently, to takju 4.2. As they say, follow the instructions. Never miss a step and you can never go wrong. :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
I always get status error 7 with fastboot and then cwm updating from 4.1.2 - 4.2.

Then i tried clearing the cache google service framework. Got the OTA 3 times but I always get andy with a warning sign while updating.

Any suggestions? Pure stock takju.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harveydent:
what do you mean by "with fastboot and then cwm updating from 4.1.2 - 4.2"

just flash the 4.2 factory image via fastboot (don't flash the userdata.img to keep your data). No need for flashing with CWM or for 4.1.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
Oh I'll try that later. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
Hey man. Were you able to solve your issue? I did a test and installed takju ics last night and it gave me until 4.2 ota without issues. I'm most likely sticking with takju now as it's pointless to go back to yakju
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanismo:
Same here ツ

And, you really opted to go thru the OTA hassle, huh? Hehe

Would you know what camera lens is best in the local market for our Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
The ota hassle was for testing because some people have mentioned having issues with updating even though they are stock. Somehow I didn't get any errors from ics to latest so I'm thinking there must be some mods done on the others that perhaps they weren't aware of

battery and 4.2

guys where can I buy some 2000mah battery with back cover here in the philippines? and how does 4.2 work for you? is it good enough compared to 4.1? I've been thinking if where could I get the stock baseband and kernel? Thanks guys I hope you could help me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prinzhernan:
You have to order it abroad. Sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
prinze! are you buying nexus 4?

anyway, i found the solution to red triangle problem while updating to 4.2. if your baseband/radio is XXLA2, you have to change it to XXLF1. i flashed the radio zip via CWM, and flash the update via CWM and it updated now. you can do it via fastboot too, but for some reason i cannot flash the radio image there. hope this helps. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brianthonyleung:
How's its memory? I heard there's no memory card insertion available for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
Swift,

I thought yours was stock? How come your radio didn't update to the latest when you had the previous upgrade?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swiftden:
I really don't know. Someone has the same problem as mine. Updated fine from 4.1 - 4.1.2 OTA but couldn't from 4.1.2 - 4.2. He also has the wrong radio. Weird.

For 4.2, is the stock radio XXLH1?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
You got it. Seems better than the lf1 radio of jb 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanismo:
Are you on Globe? 'Cause I got weaker signal with LH1. This is why I flashed back to LF1 on 4.2. I'm not sure the carrier would matter... :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanismo:
BBMAX on Globe prepaid has a daily cap of 800MB. I use it on my Nexus because it's just P599, SuperSURF is P999. Not sure if the daily cap applies to SuperSURF, too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanismo:
Try reviewing the steps and repeat the process, sir. Good luck.

i finally got it to work by locking the bootloader then unlocking it again. maybe because i used the toolkit for the drivers and unlock the bootloader but for all the other steps, i did the fastboot method.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geevee11:
Didn't know there was a Gnex for us pinoy owners.

Hello guys.

168, if I am not mistaken, is in divisoria.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.go:
I don't think smart has a plan that charges by data downloaded. For one-time sessions, it's the usual P10/30min, regardless of download size. They also have the consumable all-in plans where you can convert your consumables into various unlimited stuff like unli-calls, unli-text and unli-surf for 30 days. Unlimited surfing is P1000 for 30 days. What I don't like with this setup is that you have to manually enroll your unlimited surfing every 30 days. The advantage to this is that, according to their agent, there is no data cap. It is truly unlimited.

They also have unlimited data plan which has a monthly data cap, as mentioned by chardd23, at 1.5gb. Once you reach that, they throttle down the speed to either 32KB/s or 32 kbps. I don't remember which, but it was on the Fair Use Policy they made me sign. The only advantage is that you don't have to enroll every 30 days. However, if you only really use it for browsing, email, viber, gtalk, etc. like me, then 1.5gb is more than enough. But if you plan on streaming music or videos, or downloading huge files then you might consider the all-in packages of smart or switching to globe who have a daily data cap of 800mb.

But then again, that's meaningless when you can't maintain a decent connection at all. My wife is on globe and there are a lot of areas where she only gets 2g/edge while I have 3g/HSDPA. I don't think we've ever been to a place where I was on 2G and she was on 3G. If I don't have 3G, you can bet 9 out of 10, neither does she. To be fair, these are only places WE frequent. Your mileage may vary.

For those who have successfully flashed or updated their devices to 4.2, what are your observations so far?

Now this is weird. I have a Linksys wireless router at home. We had for more than a year now. Devices connected to it are my Windows 7 laptop, Gnex, and my old G-Ace.

Most of the time, I can browse the internet fine on all of these devices. For some weird reasons, some websites such as Wikipedia are not accessible on my Android phones. Facebook and youtube mobile webpages are accessible but not Wikipedia and some websites. I got a "Data connectivity problems. The server failed to communicate. Please try again later." message.

My laptop can open Wikipedia and other sites just fine, but not on my Android devices. I have tried rebooting my phone, clear cache and cookies to no avail. I have tried to powercycle our router in vain as well. And then all of a sudden, everything will work fine and open Wikipedia properly.

I have terminal emulators on my Gnex and Ace and tried to ping Wikipedia when I can't open it. 0% lost.

I have tried using Firefox for Android only to have the same results.

I don't know where to start troubleshooting.

Update: I have installed a Wikipedia app, and it works fine.

Hey guys. I wanted to try out Paranoid Android... but I am worried of trying to install it (like cant update my phone when a new OS update comes in) and since I dont know anything about installing roms. Are you on stock or on some rom? Prons and Cons for installing rom like Paranoid Android? I really want to modify my screen and theme it like I want to...

ADDENDUM:

One more, any of you guys tried GCASH American Express Virtual Card? How do you purchase apps and games using it? It was asking me a CVC, but the card details sent to does not have any info about it. Also I was having a problem of what address will I be using... the US address found in the vcard details, or my real address here in the Philippines? --- solved! The security code was the CVC.

Another question:

How can I ask for a refund in Google Play Store?

Tried purchasing a game in order to remove its ads. First I filled-up the info. And then Google took less than a dollar. So I opened the game, and still, there were game ads in it. So, I thought it was just just an activation payment. So, I payed to remove the ads again. However, to my surprise the game still have the ads in it. I tried to opened the purchasing page and here is what I found:

PHP was not supported! How can I ask for a refund?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mixtapes08:
Just backup your full stock rom on your custom recovery (eg. Twrp or cwm) so you can always go back whenever ota comes.

Playstore purchases have a 15 minutes refund policy. So you need to refund it within this given time frame or else it's yours forever :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hikaru1223:
I used Paranoid Android when it was in 2.5 back in Jelly Bean 4.1. Just waiting for a stable build for 4.2 since they're updating their code base. If you have a custom ROM, you won't be able to update via OTA when Google pushes an update, but usually the devs are fast in incorporating the changes so it won't be to much of a hassle to flash the newest builds.

Usually, when I use a custom ROM, I switch back to my STOCK back-up to get the updates from Google, then when the ROM is already stable for the version number, I just flash the newest build.

Pros:

-Tons of customizations

-More control over your phone, especially with PA with it's hybrid engine

-Aesthetic customizations with PA's TAB/Phablet UI\

-Cool features that you won't get in Stock e.g. expanded desktop mode etc.

Cons:

-a bit unstable as compared to Stock with a bit more bugs

that's pretty much it.
