Which one works on the Galaxy Nexus? Can you link me to an eBay deal of the OTG which works with our phones?

And from shall I do that recharge to get the ebay coupon? I'm a vodafone user. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waveboy:
Why u want to pay 350? Go to any electronic shops and ask and test before u buy with flash drive. It won't cost more than 50rs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrao:
Yup...390 is way too expensive...Ive been using these for a while and they work just fine...in fact I've used this with a xoom, an s2 and now with the Gnex and nexus 7

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
Any good AOSP based Rom to try?

The phone has started to lag sometimes on 4.2.1 was thinking of shifting back to 4.1.2 based Roms.. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Use RasbeanJelly, you will love it.

---------- Post added at 11:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 PM ----------

Looks awesome. Thanks. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
What is the RasbeanJelly stability and performance like? was thinking of trying Android RevolutionHD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rrohanjs:
the best of them all, after trying this all roms seem sluggish, and this is the reason i cant go to paranoid anymore
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
You are sure that this works with the Gnex, right? I'm just about to place an order.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rrohanjs:
if you pick it up from any shop in mumbai do let me know :)

EDIT : i just saw you are ordering it lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
RasbeanJelly by far has the best performance, no other ROM comes near it. Use it with Trinity kernel and get amazing battery life too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Its easy to say Rasbean is one of the most stable and best performers out there.

But it's black and blue themed, so if you like stock (like me) you won't be able to handle it.

Currently I'm on Xylon (it's a 4.2.1 based ROM) and Trinity kernel. No lag issues at all. Never been smoother. Getting close to 3.45 hours screen on time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I'm about to place an order here - http://dx.com/p/mini-usb-on-the-go-host-otg-adapter-2-pack-50944

The price is indeed very good but the compact size is what attracts me. A local shop dealer showed me one for Rs. 450 and it was a big OTG cable, of about 15-20cms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rrohanjs:
its a 2 pack, ill pay for the other one :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waveboy:
Be careful u don't break ur USB port when inserting this as it is very stiff.......if u adjust ur flash drive a little when connected it may cause the port to get loose. It's always better to buy cable for phone and this for tablets
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Now you are confusing me! :s

---------- Post added at 12:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------

I have an extension cord, I can use it. But I hope it will work with the OTG system.

Something like this,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waveboy:
That should work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaushikd:
If you recharge online from vodafone website for an amount not less than 150, you'll get a ebay voucher of 100 rupees which you can use it for buying anything over 300 rupees. So the OTG cable will cost you 290..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Well I just checked out ebay and I found one for Rs. 490. Which is the Rs. 390 cable you are talking about?

Compatibility only says S2, S3 and Note. Are you sure that it works with the Gnex too?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Do you use it? How's it? How is the performance compared to RasbeanJelly?

I tried ParanoidAndroid but was completely irritated because I'm so used to RasbeanJelly's buttery smooth performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrao:
I've been using it since my S2 days...works perfectly for me on the GNex as well as the Nexus 7
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
How is the microUSB port of it? Is it difficult to insert it in the microUSB port of GNex and can it damage the port of the GNex?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Yeah man. Xylon and Trinity is insane together, at least for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nishthecooldude:
Nebody can pls elaborate on serve pro warranty services?? Can it be bought externally /seller provides it along wid new phone?? Has anyone used it?? Howz d service in delhi/NCR?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hemant_p:
Looks like the device is not available with many sellers in Hyderabad as well as Mumbai below 21k. Everyone is saying that it was 19k before 10 days and recently demand picked up, so increase in prices.

Enquired with Irla, Vardhman Dahisar in Mumbai (all by justdial) and Technovision, other small sellers in Hyderabad (went there personally).

How about 15.5k for a 2 months used device (seller is claiming). Also, i would be great if you can suggest as to what all needs to be checked while buying a used Nexus. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I ordered $1.80 OTG 'cable' just about two hours back. Let's see how it is. Even if its not good that's fine, 90 bucks is good enough to give it at least a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
I have been using Paranoid Android for days and well it buttery smooth with Franco.Kernel I get 2.5Hrs of Screen time and all the great innovations of the PA Rom ..but as it is with Roms its mostly personal preference...

CM 10.1 Nightlies are out anyone tested that yet?

Sent From My Paranoid Android Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Well I had used ParanoidAndroid betaSeven some days back and hated it. It was very sluggish, back to RasbeanJelly.

And 2.5 hours is little less I think. I generally almost everytime get 4 hours screen time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dhulipm:
where can i buy galaxy nexus in hyderabad

Hi, Can anybody please let me know where can i buy Galaxy Nexus in Hyderabad?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
4 hours with the stock battery? wooh..with wifi 3G and Sync on? Dats sweet..ill give Rasbean a try den...

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
With 3G I would get around 3 hours 30 minutes. Now that I'm free at home and don't have to go out for a month, I'm on Wifi 24 hours and get 4 hours screen time.

Wifi on, sync on, gps off.

And before going to bed, wifi and sync off too.

Oh WTF! Didn't notice that. Somebody here said it works and so I blindly placed the order.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

Now I am confused again! :p

Here someone has written a review of this product and says that it works on his Galaxy Note!

"Bought this to use with my Canon 600D and my Samsung Galaxy Note. This will allow me to hook my Galaxy Note up to my 600D and use my Galaxy Note as a viewfinder. Exactly what I was looking for. The build quality appears to be decent. You really can't go wrong when it comes to a simple item like this. Only downside is the metal around the full size USB area. I've had cords like this which get bent out of shape very easily. So you don't want to throw these things around."

@mrao: Can you confirm whether you ordered that one only and it's working on your GNex? Do this guys send a microUSB one even though they have listed it as miniUSB?

I have an option to still review and cancel/change order.

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

I have opened a new ticket for change of order and have asked for this adapter - http://dx.com/p/micro-usb-on-the-go-host-otg-adapter-pair-50774

Let's see whether my request is approved or not.

---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

Alright so when I opened the ticket it wasn't shipped and within 5 minutes the status changed to shipped and I got a confirmation email that the order is shipped and will be reaching soon.

Pure bad luck!

Talked to them, they said if I don't accept the order it will be shipped back to them and then I can apply for the change. But price may be applied for not accepting the order.

I guess I shall accept this, sell this to a friend or to someone on OLX and then order the microUSB one from DealExtreme only.

Help needed!!

I am trying to install rasbeanjelly using ROM manager .

I go into the recovery mode and backup data.

Then wipe phone.

Then install zip from SD card.

Now I choose the zip package and click install .

CWM says can't open(bad) .installation aborted.

:confused:

I tried downloaded the zip again. Still same prob.

Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Verify the md5. And you can certainly flash it with CWM 6.0.15 but I recommend using latest TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
I am using cwm recovery 6.0.2.3 ....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Did you verify the md5 hash? And are you flashing from the recovery?

I have never used ROM manager and have no idea how to use it.

Follow these steps:

1. Verify the md5 of RasbeanJelly rom and Gapps

2. Wipe cache and dalvik

3. If you are coming from some other ROM except RasbeanJelly, factory reset too.

4. Flash rom, flash gapps.

I guess you've downloaded a bad file. Verifying the md5 shall help IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Checked md5,there's a mismatch. Downloaded twice. Still how could there be a mismatch??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
From where are you downloading, mobile or PC? If PC then download via some other browser and if you are using a download manager then disable it for some time.

BTW which build are you trying to download?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
2012-12-15, I am downloading on mobile....

http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=rasbeanjelly&device=maguro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
On mobile always use Loader Droid to download ROMs and any other flashable zips. It's a free app available in the play store and will certainly not disappoint you.

Open http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=rasbeanjelly&device=maguro from the browser inside the app and download. When the pop up to confirm download appears, rename dl.php to <anyname>.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Will surely try this n let u know

Howz the battery life in rbj??? Any issues??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] azeem.droid:
15k is a good deal for a 2 months old device. Check for any damage to outerbody. Battery whether its swollen or not. And check the screen if there are any dead pixels(pixels not lighting up). Check the charging and the 3.5mm port.

Software issues if any can b resolved via changing the rom/kernel.

Swyped using my gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
The battery life and smoothness are probably the two biggest plus points of RasbeanJelly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Oh cool that's what I just needed. Stock rom drains battery in 10 hrs!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
running rasbeanjelly4.2.1

okay i flasheD the rom.

where is google now?? gesture typing wont work, stock browser wont open, HOME SCREEN BUTTON NOT WORKING,

no play store.:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
You didn't flash the gapps I guess. http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=rasbeanjelly&device=gapps

---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

And did you do a full wipe of your phone before flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
yes i wiped everything before flashing rom.

Why isnt the homescreen button working?

Gesture typing too....... :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
That's weird. None of the RasbeanJelly users have come across the issue of home button not working. Don't wipe anything, not even cache and dalvik cache and flash the rom again, maybe that will help.

If that doesn't solve the issue then I recommend asking it in the RasbeanJelly thread so that rascarlo (the developer of this rom) can help you out.

And you need to enable gesture typing from the keyboard settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
gesture typing is enabled. I see only the trail!! No words whatsoever!! Really weird with so many problems
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
All this is really weird, I have never come across anyone experiencing such issues on RasbeanJelly. Did you reflash the ROM as I suggested? Even if that hasn't worked then it's better to head to the RasbeanJelly thread and seek help from Rascarlo himself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
yes.reflashed, still the same. :( i did send him a message. gapps thing i can understand,

but i was soooo frustrated to see homescreen button fail, also quick settings and gesture typing fail too :((((
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Don't send him a message, he doesn't read them as he has turned off the notifications. Just post your query in the thread, there will be many willing to help you out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Well he actually replied asking me to use the thread.....:thumbup:

Now my files won't show up in any explorer, but they are there..

Wat can I do ??

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Are you sure that the files are there and you didn't wipe them accidentally?

Are your pictures visible in the gallery, music in the music player and do adb commands show you your files?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killmastern3:
Have a Galaxy Nexus that is 4 months old (bought new locally in national market). A month back, suddenly, display just switched of. Phone is on, i can get calls, but no display. I pulled battery and tried half an later, it did switch on. Showed me a myriad of colours and gradually the display became normal. Now i notice that at low brightness, i can see almost nothing. TWRP recovery looks dull grey than the normal blue. Can this be repaired. If display has to be replaced, so be it. Any idea where i can get it done locally in bangalore?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Wow! Try completely wiping your system.

I don't think this will work but no harm in trying.

Edit : Another wild suggestion - Change your kernel and hope that solves the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Yes. Did something. Now files are showing up.

But rbj problems still persist when I flash the rom. So back on stock.

This time I tried twrp, still its all the same!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
All this is really strange. And I guess I'm out of suggestions now. No idea what can solve the issue now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Bro my stock jb-battery irks me so much, feel like throwing it in the bin.....:banghead:

That's the reason I needed rbj.

My finals are tomorrow at 2:30 pm. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Every phone is different, so you don't need to stick only to RBJ. I'm getting normally around 3.5 hours screen on time with Xylon rom and Trinity kernel. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Yes every phone is different but you don't get such weird issues on any ROM. :S
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Yeah I was thinking of trying xylon....

Are there any other better roms??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Well try Xylon, I've heard it's good. And if you love trying out new and exciting stuff then give ParanoidAndroid a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
I second that...I went PA two weeks after i got my GNex and have only tried one other Rom (Xylon) but it didn't gimme the amazing look and feel that PA gave me...and yes ppl may disagree with me but in the end of the day its personal preference.

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I personally hate ParanoidAndroid but I know that it's not bad. It all comes down to your requirements tbh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
I agree. I never used the hybrid modes or anything. I like to stay close to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
Well again its Personal Preference..The Latest Beta and Franco's Kernel gives a sweet 3.5 hrs of Screen time..

Yet to check battery stats.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abhishek93:
I hated that blue color so i changed it as soon as i installed trinity... but still i m able to get approx 3hrs of on screen time..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Why isn't there a trial version for trinity toolbox ??? :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Congrats.

Yes, the colors are the magic of trinity. Many people including myself love it. You won't like the colors for the first few days, I hated the colors for the first 3-4 days but later you'll get so used to it that you'll never switch back to stock colors. Believe me, you'll love the colors and won't want to change them.

BTW the colors can be changed using the trickster mod too. It's available for free, but I suggest you to stick to trinity colors.

Planning to buy

Hi,

I am planning to buy this phone, but I have heard it man Sound and battery issues. Is this true ??

Since there is no warranty in India I am a liitle comprehensive to buy it.

:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Battery life differs for people. For me it has been pretty nice!

And all sound issues are solved on using this patch - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1748803

Using that you get amazing sound quality, loud and crisp. Far better than even the Sony Walkman phones, I've compared the two together personally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
Why do you think the Trinity colors are better?? If i use stock colors, battery backup is decreased??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrao:
Apprehensive you mean....don't worry..Samsung devices..and all Nexii are virtually unbrickable...and if you incur hardware damage due to impact and water..warranty won't cover it anyway... So what are you worried about? :beer:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Maybe the battery life could be affected, but I don't think it affects much even if it does.

The trinity colors are better as they help us get away from the annoying yellow tint on stock colors.

The whites are actually white and not yellowish.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
I believe Franco's Colors from his Franco Kernel are spot on but i would like to also say it depends from person to person..Personally I like it.

Sent From My Paranoid Android Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
It differs. If I'm constantly working on my phone for 4 hours then it will be down to 3 or 2 but if the phone is just sitting idle and say that the charge is 100% then it will come down to around 98%.

For how much time was your screen on during those 4 hours?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbiceps:
1:40. That's my screen on for 4 hours, and the battery is already at 45%.

How much total time do you manage with one full charge.? With moderate WiFi usage, GPS off, 2g/3g off, Bluetooth off, sync off, ????
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I can't answer this as my wifi and sync are always on and the usage generally depends. Sometimes the battery last 1-1.5 days and sometimes it gets exhausted merely in 5 hours if I keep on using the phone continuously.

To answer your question, I just say that the screen on time I generally get is around 4 hours. Now my battery generally gets exhausted whenever I near 4 hours screen time.

And give your phone some time. Use RasbeanJelly for at least a week to conclude about the battery backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
That's not too bad.

It depends on each phone. Maybe your phone doesn't like trinity, or maybe it doesn't like Rasbean.

But that's not too bad battery life. You should see people on other threads, they are happy with 2.5 hours screen on :eek:
