Hey Guys,

I'm planning on buying Gnex from ebay.in

Available for 17k and 17.5k.

Item is listed as brand new but are there any chances of the phones belonging to a defective lot?

I dont know the history of this phone, but you guys may be knowing if there is a batch of phones with malfunctioning amoled screens or corrupt motherboards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ronhoover88:
Why don't you get a nexus 4 rather? It comes with warranty as well for 25k
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ral7:
I would advice you to rather buy a used nexus 4 for 18-19k than a Gnex for 17.5k
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pabreu:
Hey Gunner,:D

My i9003 has given up. Screen dead for the second time, replaced it last year for 5k, no point in replacing again and need to buy a new phone pretty quickly.

Comparatively Gnex at 17k is more VFM than N4 at 25k. What do you say?

Don't want to buy second hand. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaushikd:
I would suggest you to go for a Nexus 4 instead. You'll official warranty also.

Official Warranty? How?

LG has not launched it in India right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
It's officially launched in India for 25,990 ie 26k. You can buy it from Flipkart, currently out of stock though. Both are out of stock, black as well as white.

Does a US purchased nexus 4 have a international warranty..? Now that it is officially launched in india..

Guys I have sold my damaged galaxy nexus and gave bought a new one... I haven't been in these forums lately and see there are many New roms and I would like to have a opinion which one is closer to CNA in function as CNA is no longer continuing....

I know the way to select the best Rom is try it out by myself but I just want some feedback about Roms which has functionality like CNA.

Sent from my awesome Xperia Z
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
LiquidSmooth and RasbeanJelly are simply the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pabreu:
Yeah I'm inclined towards N4 now mainly cause Gnex is old and given the 2 major defects I've had with current phone in 24 months, defects are likely to occur with any touchscreen phone and with spare parts availability being close to non-existent for Gnex, it looks like an unwise choice.

And now regarding N4, since LG India is officially launched it, during warranty claims how will the service center be able to distinguish between phones which have been given 1-year manufacturer warranty and which have been not?

I was in Bangalore yesterday and visited the Univercell outlet.

Wanted to see if they have it on display. But only boxed ones available. :(

And also forgot to see if it said Imported by LG India.

Maybe only those which are imported by LG India are supported by them? :confused:

The closest rom in my opinion is Xenon.

It's a mashup of cyanogen, aokp, pa.

It's very similar to cna in terms of performance and feel of it... do try it if u wish..

Guys this is exactly a charging circuit problem, however don't try to fix it, just use the original charger that came with the phone and the problem will go away in couple of days.

In future don't use any other charger except the original one. Also if your screen keeps turning on due to ghost charging, install xenonhd and deselect option to turn on screen when charger connected in settings.

I've got the same problem as many others here, with the USB port on my 6 month old Nexus on the blink. It take 8-10 minutes to add 1% to the charge, if at all.

Has anyone with the same problem managed to get it fixed at a mobile repair shop? Need a few recommendations for places to take it to.

Guys, my Gnex is not working and it is because of water entering in it. It happened on Sunday and since then it is in rice.

Did your item track well?

Can you give me your tracking number??

So that I can cross check if this is alright or not...

Thanks.

USB Port Problem

Hey fellow GNex users, I'm having a problem with my GNex, that famous USB Problem thingy, that you can't connect your phone to the pc via usb cable and its not charging, earlier I was facing the ghost charging prob, that it keeps on charging(shows it) even if the cable wasn't plugged in. Then it used to charge whenever I used to connect it, but now I read some threads that you have to clean the port and push the usb port pin upwards. Well, It worked for me for a while but now its not at all charging my phone. Though charging can be done when I shut off my phone. Please help me, kinda annoyed. :/ :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paarthdesai:
at alfa the price is 19k

and borivali indrprasth price is 18k

sent from my sexy Nexy ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] etMind:
I really don't feel it's a good idea to get the GNex new at this day and age. There are plenty of used phone deals going around. I got one myself for 13K (around 6 months old and in very good condition). If I had 19K to spend, I'd rather pump a few grand more and get the Nexus 4 via official channels.

Anyways, guys which launcher would you recommend for 4.2.2? I was using ADW Ex on my Atrix and carried over the same to the GNex. Would like to try out a new one apart from stock launcher. Which one should I try out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neerajvd:
For speed and customizations, try Nova.

For extreme customization options, try Buzz launcher or Lightning Launcher

For stock feel, I like Holo Launcher.

Else there's the always fave Go Launcher Ex, but it eats up memory like crazy.

Smart launcher is also a great option.

Currently I am switching between Action Launcher Pro and Launcher 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paarthdesai:
i recommend next launcher pro

Has anyone here got issues with distortions during audio playback with your GNex?

I had one and continue to do so with my phone even after upgrading to a new version of my ROM. Earlier was running Purity 5.5 with AKL 256 kernel. Now running Purity 5.6.1 with same kernel and problem continues to persist. Files are all FLACs and 320 kbps ones.

I don't remember the ROM, but the kernel was a Trinity test kernel. Always happened on that ONE kernel only. Worked fine on other Trinity versions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] etMind:
Glad that worked out for you. I switched from AK256 (which i was loving btw) to Kubo r50 on Purity 5.6.1 and continued to have distortions, but greatly reduced, while music playback. So just for the sake of trying out, I downloaded TTPod player and distortions have almost completely vanished. That's a shame cause PowerAmp was my fav (purchase gone waste :()

Am now tempted to go back to AK256 but will see how's the battery and performance with Kubo.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
Rootbox is nice, very nice, but I still prefer LiquidSmooth.

1. Liquid uses CM tiles and Rootbox uses AOKP tiles. CM tiles are far better than AOKP.

2. I have tried around 8-10 ROMs in the past week, and no ROM has a better implementation of Pie than Liquid. Liquid's Pie is even better than PA. It has a variety of options, and long clicks too. Pie is amazing on Liquid.

3. As the name suggests, LiquidSmooth is actually 'Liquid Smooth'. But then, even Rootbox is smooth. ;)

Taking nothing away from Rootbox, it's a wonderful ROM, but as of now I prefer LiquidSmooth.

and how can we take screenshot in Gnex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Volume down + power, that's standard for screenshots on Android 4.1 and above (actually, above 4.0 I think). As for those other options, you need a custom ROM, all of them have it. Can't do it in stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mdskds:
How can I get that custom ROM ? And I am now having 4.2.2 after flashing takju from yakjuxw...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Um, there are numerous custom ROMs, all of them allow it. Since you're new to all this, you'll need to read a lot to learn how to flash custom ROMs and stuff. You'll need to unlock the bootloader (which wipes all data), flash a custom recovery, then a custom ROM. There should be guides in the general section and you can also Google it. The Nexus 4 Toolkit (in development section) can easily unlock bootloader and flash a recovery, try that too, it's good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mdskds:
I have already unlocked my bootloader..where would I get custom ROM and nexus 2 toolkit?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
The Original Android Development section/Development Section for Nexus 4 here on XDA itself. You're in general section for Nexus 4 now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waveboy:
This is the galaxy nexus section
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mdskds:
Man I am having Samsung galaxy nexus and not lg nexus 4...so plz.suggest me accordingly..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Sorry, recently upgraded to N4 so got confused. But anyway, the answer remains exactly the same, just check the development sections for Galaxy Nexus. Same procedure applies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mdskds:
Hey how can we take screenshot in gnex and whr does it gets saved?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Bro, do you even Google or read? Like I said, the same things I said about the Nexus 4 apply to the Galaxy Nexus as well, there are zero differences. And really, not wanting to be rude here, but have you tried Googling stuff instead of asking everything here?

Click on the "Samsung Galaxy Nexus" text above next to the home icon, then go into original development section, then try out the custom ROMs and the toolkit. For screenshots, press Volume Down + power. TRY IT.

^^^

To take screen shot press and hold both volume minus and power buttons at the same time for around 2-3 seconds.

After taking a screen shot, when you pull down the notification bar, screen shot will be there. See the attached pics

On gallery there will be an album called Screenshots, where all screen shots are saved.

The exact location of the directory is \sdcard\pictures\screenshots

Hi,

I have a Galaxy Nexus which is having intermittent charging issues. It charges sometimes and sometimes it does not. I tried with a local service guy, and he could not fix it as he said that its a issue with the charging IC in the mother board.

Apart from this, the phone works perfectly fine.

Please give suggestions on what I can try out. I have already googled a lot and tried various roms and trying to bend the charging port.

Also can I sell this somewhere if I am not able to fix it? I don't want it to lie around simply in my table.

Read in this forum that few other users are having mother board issues. Please advise on how and where I can sell it.

Regards,

Vijay
