I personally came from a galaxy s to a desire HD to a galaxy note and finally the galaxy nexus. For myself, the note was a fantastic device if you can live with the large screen size and laggy os (I did love the screen size, but the fluidity and having ics now was a No brainer). After getting the nexus and flashing aokp, just find the nexus rocks. The note was nice, but the amount of custom Roms and mods for the nexus made it a keeper, so sold my note.

Also bought one for the wife. She came from a blackberry bold 9800 to a HTC desire HD to a galaxy s 2 to the now galaxy nexus. With the amount of custom Roms and mods available I was able to customise the phone to exactly the way she likes, so this has been the one phone I have had the NO complains from her,which again makes it a win.

Lastly, the pulse light notificstion is really nice knowing you have missed something whilst the screen is off.

I came from a Nexus One and love everything about this phone, despite what some reviewers say or despite the signal drops. It's an awesome phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxBrun0xx:
Actually, more cores = less power consumption. I would guess, performance-wise, you won't see a big difference between phones made 5 months ago and phones made 5 months in the future. The difference will be the amount of time you can go between charges.

And before I get flamed, I understand ram and processing power will most likely increase, I say performance won't matter because, yes, the phones may be faster, but 99.9% of the time you won't be able to tell. Phones these days are so stupidly fast anyways, I had a Triumph that ran gingerbread, and despite being a single-core 1ghz, 512megs ram phone, I have never seen anything it can't handle. 4 cores won't make your phone faster. In fact, when OC'ing the Triumph to 1.9ghz, it runs circles around the Droid Razr I'm currently using, despite having half the ram. It's quite silly, really.

Edit: On topic, have my Gnex coming in the mail (bought from a fellow XDA member). I couldn't be happier! I don't care what else comes out, the software matters to me more than hardware at this point, and nothing beats the nexus :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rumble6059:
Been interesting reading this thread :-) and nice to see all the reassuring comments

I just ordered myself a unlocked [UN-branded] Nexus [actually ordered it about 2 hours ago with delivery tomorrow. paid £470 GBP but that was with a casemate case, 2x screen protectors and a car dock, so didn't think that was too bad a price.] :-)

It'll be the first one that I have owned. and now after reading all the positive comments i am really looking forward to getting it.

I have came from the HTC HD2 to the Galaxy S to the Galaxy S 2 and find that the Galaxy S2 has been a really good phone for me, that is since installing CM7 onto it and now CM9, but it just doesn't seem as good as the nexus that my mate has got [personally think the nexus is a sexy looking phone too].

Anyway, that's all i've got to say.

I'm looking forward to modding this phone and I'm sure that I'll be around here a lot more now [I'm not a noob that will brick his phone straight away, don't worry, lol].

Oh and finally, sorry Natious to hijack the thread like this, hope you don't mind.

Getting mine on monday but having a bit of buyers remorse only because I also wanted the Note. I know everyone says its too big but I like the concept of that phone, but I have had my Eyes on the latest nexus since the nexus one and yet have got to own a nexus phone. So I am just hoping I made the right decision.

By the way which car dock did you get?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaestreetss:
Have about 10 days with mine although I kinda miss my nexus s 4g because there was a lot of rom options like sense,Xperia,my touch 4g port and the most recent they almost had done was the epic touch 4g port....I know that the development for the g.nex will grow and we will see a lot of options soon enough...plus we have the best chance of jellybean...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] journeyman73:
Well you could always give it a try & if u don't like it, return it for the Note. I had my eye on Sprint's version of the Note as well but the thought of it possibly shipping with GB & the fact that the AOSP ROMS have won me over has lead me to the Galaxy Nexus...until the GS3 surfaces that is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bykr_dude15:
yup I am becoming pretty bad in selling a trading phones like they were pokemon cards. But will most likely see how this phone feels with all the roms. So far from what I have seen love the development and cant wait to try them out.

I have also heard people say this is the first phone that they haven't wanted to trade in, is this true for most of you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] journeyman73:
I haven't received the phone yet but I don't think there will ever be a phone [for me at least] that I will ever have a problem with trading in for something newer &/or better. But you never know... :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nordstrøm:
I returned a HOX for the GN....

The HOX was nice and all and I've always been a fan of Sense (wildfire, Desire S, Sensation XE and HOX) Then for some reason i was out looking at other HOX to see if they had the same bugs and stuff that I had on mine.

Saw the GN, I've walked passed that phone a million times looking at phones then I decided, just for s**** and giggles, to look at it and I was like :confused: :eek: :D Where had this interface been all my life???

Phone was smooth and the layout was brilliant. Not like Sense. Better than Sense! Sure my HOX had 4 cores and a million GPU cores and this had two. But I decided that I couldn't justify the price of the HOX compared to the amount of bugs.

So now I'm waiting for my GN to arrive and I'm a ton more excited than I was waiting for my HOX
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxBrun0xx:
I've had quite a few phones: Ipod touch (it's a wifi phone), optimus v, moto triumph, samsung captivate glide, and currently a droid razr. The most satisfying one was actually the Triumph, but since Virgin Mobile's network wasn't great, I switched to Straight Talk. The glide was an awkward size, the razr is stuck on gingerbread (I have a Latam model, which has buggy wifi drivers), the optimus was too small, and the triumph was not the most reliable thing in the world. But I have a gnex coming in the mail and it feels like I'm waiting for Santa to come down the chimney!

I don't care how much better hardware gets, the gnex will be beefy enough to run several android systems before it becomes laggy. And here's why:

I'm not sure if google realizes it yet, but in order to make a better OS, you need to drop the hardware requirements (or keep them the same) for future versions. Microsoft learned this with Vista/7. Lower requirements to run the OS means more power for applications, which is what people use the OS to get to. I feel like the requirements for ICS are pretty on-par with gingerbread (and most certainly lower than honeycomb lol). If this trend continues, the nexus will be relevant for a very long time :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axne1:
Idc the best device for now and beyond!!

No doubt Jellybean!

Splinter Cell: Double agent for wii: Compatible with classic controller attatchment?

I am planning on getting Splinter Cell: Double Agent for my next wii game (don't say "oh don't buy that!

Is that true? Thanks for answers. Please do not go off subject.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
I just want to confirm if I am the only one that experiences this issue:

(Apologies for glare, and ghosting as the issue happens relatively fast)

Full picture

Every time I flash EL29, I get this. I might know where it came from, but, if that is the case I don't know how to get rid of it. I am wondering if there is a way to read any partition data on a phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Well are you flashing Full or No Data and are you coming from EL29, an older gingerbread or from ICS. If coming from ICS you should be wiping all data from the phone, no excuses. Coming up from older stock is fine. Anything not stock is a bit iffy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
I am flashing from EL29, with a full data wipe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpartanVissepo:
I get the same message every time i flash full wipe,i would also like to know what it is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I was holding back to say anything because this is slightly different than whats recent memory to me. But thats because I have been flashing ICS near daily. But its pretty normal for a screen to come up preboot right after the flash.

An operating system needs to complete its setup yes? Pretty much it. I am sure there is a detailed explanation of every operation performed after a stock tar, even custom one is installed but its not really needed knowledge for most people.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noobtoob:
I am still unclear the question. Are you asking if the text appears on every ones screen when using the el29 restore? This is a complete reinstall of the stock system. I believe everyone should get these messages, as it is stated above that an operating system has to complete its setup. Just think of it as an automated script restoring to factory defaults with out cwm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I know I get it (I use EG30) every time. Sfhub always tests on his own phone before releasing anything as well. It may be some sort of package verification or something. I am not sure but I have used the EG30 one click at least 10 times and it does that before the Sprint splash screen appears on first boot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
When you flash full install, the phone considers a full wipe and will trigger a boot into recovery to wipe /cache and reinstall the Sprint preload apks. It'll also take care of verifying the lock code if you have one set.

That is what you see in the picture.

In ICS they have some GUI where they show you the preload apps loading. In GB, it just does this in Recovery.

If you flash stock recovery and subsequently boot into Recovery, Recovery will also install the Sprint preload apks.

The Sprint preload apks are stuff like NOVA, NASCAR, etc. They are contained in the /preload partition (ie hidden.img)

Well today i flashed my EVO 3D to virginmobile, i basically cloned my Optimus V, i have gottem everything to work but still no MMS! data works text and calls work! How can i fix my mms, i already went into ##3282# and changed my APN settings, i still cant get my MMS to work! Any ideas? On the Development thread they restore a apn setting, and then install a new sms app? How do you fix mms when you flash to a different carrier? Thanks!

When I lost my flash info after downgrading from hboot 1.5 to 1.4 S-OFF one of the steps I took to get my phone to play nicely with boost mobile was to connect to wifi and then manually update my profile and then my PRL in that order and everything worked great after that.

Hope this helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] decayer177:
I would use it, but go to an AOSP ROM first. For example, MIUI or CyanogenMod. make a Nandroid backup.

or you can try doing ##3282# (##DATA#), edit mode, the password is your MSL code (you can retrieve your MSL code by downloading the MSL reader from the market for free). open Data Profile, menu, restore. It'll grab your profile again.
[HTC EVO 3D] M3_Arsenal:
You can also try inputting the APN/MMS server URL settings manually. Download and install "Any Cut" app. Once installed open the app and select "New Shortcut" then select "Activity". Scroll down until you find "APNs" and select it. This will open "Edit shortcut" menu, "APNs" name will appear on the type field so just hit "OK". An "APNs" shortcut will appear in your Home screen. Open it and select "Menu", "New APN". Once there enter the Virgin Mobile APN settings.

* Note: Not all fields require to input information on the so leave them black, Also, some users with HTC hardware have found that the APN Type should be left blank in order to get the settings to work.

When u are finished entering the correct settings hit "Menu", "Save" and reboot the phone.

Hope this helps, Cheers. :D

This directions above are specifically for Virgin Mobile. If you have your phone flashed to a different carrier just google for the correct settings and follow these directions. If you cannot find them, PM and I will try to help you out with them.

Cheers to all!:p
[HTC EVO 3D] Hedied4me:
Would love to try out the above but have am unable to locate the Any Cut app.

Figured it out with a google search.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluppfisk:
My Google Maps was working fine yesterday on ICS 4.04 with CM9 nightly. Suddenly, this morning, it started force-closing on me. I wiped the app's data, uninstalled, reinstalled, but to no avail.

Logcat shows that maps throws a Java.IllegalArgumentException (greatest common divisor should be computed on numbers greater than zero), most of it in com.google.android.maps.driveabout.vector.**

Now I've noticed that this only happens when I reach a certain zoom level on certain parts of certain cities. E.g. Sacramento, CA gives no problem on any zoom level, but Kunming, YN, China does it when I zoom in far enough on almost any part of the city (it still seems to happen before the 3D building zoom level, though). Beijing, on the other hand, gives no trouble on most zoom levels except for some parts of the city.

What could possibly be wrong and how can this happen overnight?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samnada:
Same thing happened to me this morning. Fine yesterday and early this morning, then before noon it started force closing. Tried all the normal wipes but no joy. Finally tried a "uninstall updates" and that fixed it, but some features, like walking navigation, were no longer available. Worked fine that way all day.

Just now I did an app upgrade and now it's working again. No idea what the cause was.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjohmit:
I can't remember exactly when I got the tab but its been a while... maybe close to a year. I've recently noticed an issue with the display of my GTab 10.1. I'll call it "splotchiness" for lack of a better word. And I'm not sure if its a defect with my Tab, or if its just the panel they used on the GTab 10.1.

Its hard to describe so I'll give some examples. On the settings screen, there are these weird lines or "bands" across the titile bar at the top. I get similar banding across the buttons (WI-FI, Notifications, GPS, etc.) of settings popup from the tray. And some banding and splotches in the Box app.

I've converted several DVDs to AVIs and put them on my tablet. Maybe the quality of the video just sucks. But most of them have these grainy, splotchy areas throughout the film. Sometimes its the background...sometimes its on peoples' faces, hands, etc. The splotches appear on still images too.

Its really hard to get images of the screen (the splotches and stuff strangely didn't show up in screenshots I took on the tab) but I did my best.

Anyone else's GTab do this? Is mine defective? Thanks in advance for your help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjohmit:
I guess I'll assume the lack of response means nobody else is having this issue. I went back and looked and I bought my Tab on June 20th, 2011 so it's still under warranty. So I guess I'll send it back.

Hi, I'm no expert, but more info about your tablet would be necessary. Which version of the ANDROID OS are you using? It looks like the stock OS, but exact model and OS info is needed.

From a cursory glance at your post, it looks to me to be a software issue. But some more tests and info would be needed. I have attached some test images for you to view on your screen. See if you get the problem with these images.

Have fun. Anil
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjohmit:

[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
Im talking about battery consumption never seen a single difference no matter what kernel/ profiles/ governors i use lol
[HTC Sensation] hunter890:
It really depends on your usage pattern, doesn't it? If you're going to be using your phone with the screen on all of the time, then I really doubt changing the profile will be making that much of a difference to your battery life. In any case, it's very difficult to accurately and objectively determine the impact a profile or kernel will make on your battery life. For example, I use my phone differently each day, so it's really hard to tell. I can roughly gauge if a kernel can give me better battery life, but it's very hard to say for sure. There is a difference since all those profiles control the CPU differently, but whether you can see a significant difference or not is up to you.
[HTC Sensation] grupatnt:
Same here. Most of the time my phone survives for two or even more days without recharging (ondemand profile) but there are days when it drains battery like there is no tomorrow (no network, using it for navigation...) so I guess it boils down to your usage patterns and what you are expecting from device.
[HTC Sensation] xusg090:
I've found the same. If I'm constantly online or am playing games then I'll chew through the battery in a few hours. But on the other hand I've found that the battery will last 24 hours plus if I'm travelling and just listening to mp3's
