I disagree completely with the burn in screen comment. I have 3 Epics with amoled screens none of them show any signs of images burned on the screen. They are 2 years old or will be now in September's.

Sent from a phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Same here. Still looks like it did the day I bought it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
It doesn't have the same screen as the sgs2 does it? I've only had this phone a few months ans already have a burn in where the notification bar is , and I've taken special care of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
The Epic 4G(GS1) had a SAMOLED screen while the SGSII has a SAMOLED+ screen. Nothing are very similar, actually.

As for this thread, how can you compare a third party iOS browser against the stock ICS browser? Why didn't you compare mobile Safari against the stock ICS browser? That'd be more fair.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theSlack:
Some of the issues you mention are just personal habit based on being used to iOS. If you had Android for a few years and iPhone for 11 days, you'd complain about how that ui made you occasionally mess up.

Compare the ui/ux elements as if you have never used either, and then it's fair.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
My GNex has burn in at the top right where the time and status icons are. Granted I only notice it on light backgrounds if I happen to look at it. It's not that big a deal really. Just looks like an almost transparent blue watermark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shockem:
Stick with the GN. of coursebthats what everyone will tell you. But from experience, I had the iphone 3G, 3GS and 4. Then I had the HTC desire and hd2 then nexus s and now galaxy nexus. Trust me Android is a open minded way of doing things. Its a great way to do things.

The os smoothness I'm sure will be ironed out in the next update of android. So all in all stick with the gn, which gets auto corrected to gun.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marshalllaw:
I just moved from an iphone to my first android phone (Gnex). It's amazing. It takes some getting used to but just the freedom alone makes it worth while.

Gone are the times where I've wanted to put music on my phone from work but haven't had itunes on that computer!

Did you install dead pixel detect and toggle thru all the primary colors? You may be surprised. Concentrate on the top status bar and clock. That's when you see the pixel fading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PoorNexi:
I went ahead and updated the original post to reflect some more +'s and -'s (3 for the nexus and one against) of the Galaxy Nexus compared to the iPhone 4s for anyone looking to make the switch.

It's a good thing I don't listen or respond directly to the idiots in the thread that get defensive over a simple comparison thread highlighting the pluses and minuses of a phone. Don't like the thread? Get lost :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
You sound a little defensive yourself bro.

What is with people on this forum calling other people idiots if they disagree?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I disagree with you. I think the op is just plain asinine.

...of the people, by the people, for the people...

I actually came to bash this thread but you typed so much that I'd feel bad.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsinc1962:
As an owner of both the iphone 4s and now a GN here’s my little 2 minute comparison.

The screen: Size withstanding because 3.5 is too small IMO. I give a very slight nod to the 4s for quality of colors and its resistance to fingerprints.

Battery life: Push, when I got my 4s I was hoping for some wondrous amazing battery life and didn’t get it. Without changing my habits it still ended up on the charger at night with under 25% left.

Build quality: The 4s is better from a build standpoint. The materials just feel better.

Software: With my normal usage I didn’t find the 4s to be any smoother or faster. To me that’s all hype. There were plenty of times it acted buggy and required a soft reset.

Personalization: The 4s is for sheep. Hands down the GN is superior. Even after Jailbreaking the 4s the options to customize are limited. You basically see one iphone you’ve seen them all.

Camera: I’m not a pro and maybe the 4s is better. IDK for most of the day to day pictures I’ve taken I don’t see too much difference.

Store/Market: Lots of apps for both. I give the nod to Android though. Very few free apps from itunes. To me with the 4s if someone created the most basic app or mod they charged for it. Really you changed the background from light blue to dark blue and you want $2.99? I have no problem paying for an app just not every app.

Misc: 4s still uses the Apple data cable instead of micro-usb, advantage GN. Audio volume; with my Bluetooth headphones the 4s was way too soft. Maps: I use voice turn by turn. I had to buy an app to get voice on the 4s. Siri was a joke, seldom did it return anything close to what you see on TV.

So in summary I’m glad to be back with an Android device. I spent 3 months on my 4s and in all honesty I still don’t see what all the hype is about. It’s not a bad device but for someone like myself who’s into making it my own I found the 4s to be too limited for my tastes. All the things that I had heard about the 4s (battery, camera, etc) ended up not being what I was expecting.

tl;dr
[Motorola Droid RAZR] azgoofball:
Ok, I have a buddy that works at Verizon and they have an offer to upgrade your phone to 4G even if you still have time on your old phone contract. I take it they're trying to get people to move up to 4G.

Whatever the case, my wife's Dinc2 bricked on her and needs a replacement, Should fork over the the 199 for a Maxx? She basically wants the battery time (don't we all?) Im not a fan of Motorola phones, but the Maxx does have the best battery life out there.

What do you guys think??
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ATRIXXIRTA:
I have a moto atrix and looove it. Its been great to me.

But the reason. I would NEVER get a razor is because it has a built in battery. You cant pull it if something freezes or if you get a bootloop. Too scary for me.

I also work at a rogers store and we've seen about 7 or 8 of these come back with hairline cracks in the screen, from either a really small.fall, or literally NOTHING at all.

Personally I'd steer clear, and I'm a moto fan!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] droidxrooting:
Moto designed the phone knowing that it might freeze. Holding volume down and power resets it. You can swap the battery really easy. Not like on iPhone. I can admit that even though it has gorilla glass cracks can happen and often on this phone. But the razr maxx is one of the best Android phones out there. I would strongly suggest maxx.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Aliceics:
I went from the Incredible 2 to a Maxx. I don't regret it :) Its super durable, battery is just amazing. In the unlikely event it freezes, holding the power and volume up (or down I can't remember) will restart it. It worked for me.

tl;dr : Get the Maxx you won't regret it :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] collins521:
I love my maxx...I used to have the original Razr and probably would be using it still if I didn't get a chance to pick up this maxx for cheap. Battery life is top notch on it, especially if she doesn't use it much she will love it. By far this is the most stable android phone I've ever used. Haven't had a problem with slows downs or freeze ups and I'm still rolling the stock GB OS, once ICS comes out officially it will be even better.

I say go for it, my wife wasn't at all interested in the Razr til I got her one and now she loves it. Sound quality on it is great...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
motorola voice quality on some of their models (the RAZR & Defy are two of them) blows everything else away. if you care about voice quality, RAZR is the one to get. Atrix and iPhone 4 are almost, but not quite as good for voice. LG makes one decent phone for voice but i can't remember the model no. right now. Samsung phones are HORRIBLE for voice, stay far away if you like to use phones as phones.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anthony2558:
I left the gnex for the maxx, no regrets here. Great phone. ICS real soon. Don't worry about the non removable battery, its not an issue. Hard resets (simulated battery pull) can be done as stated above.

via Razr MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
Love my maxx. Don't fall for the hype of it not being good or just about the battery. Go to your local store and just play w one. I am running an ics leak on mine and if its any inclination of how official will be then the RAZR maxx w ics is going to be one of the top phones. Battery life is obviously the selling point...but there are so many more great points about this phone. I have never had a freeze or a restart on gbread on 2 different ics leaks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] collins521:
Ya I've never had a freeze on the stock OS, plus my wife has never complained about any problems
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ATRIXXIRTA:
Guys, watch this then tell me what you think

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bingo6104:
That's interesting, been waiting to upgrade and the 2 choices is the maxx and the nexus. Getting mixed reviews and i just don't know what i want.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sedariya11:
Hmm, thats an interesting video but let me tell you something that if you drop your phone into the water, be it any phone, a normal person cannot do it in a techy way like shown in the video and i m sure your wife would not like it, taking apart the parts of any phone to avoid damage due to water. the changes of dropping the phone into the water are minimal unless we dont care. If you really want her to be happy with any phone in the market then it is only MAXX. I have been using razr and i m in love with it to the core. Its slick, very powerful, the best beautiful design phone in the market ever made after original razr and THE DEADLY BATTERY LIFE. That video is actually for those who wants to play with their phone. And with ICS on this, it would be icing the cake. She well love it, buy it. You will not regret it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dave*228:
The points in this video are only relevant if you are a guy who takes your phone apart to repair. For 99% of smartphone users, the points made in this video are irrelevant. If you have an extended warrantee; phones are not repaired. They are replaced.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
I had it get real hot and glitch up once when I was using google NAV screen on for over an hour, had to turn the screen off let it cool and then power cycle it, but then again that was 3 weeks after I got my phone and my phone hadn't been shut off since I got it, now I make it a rule to "power cycle" my phone every other charge and I haven't had a problem since.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rushless:
At this point, I would wait. The next two months should see some interesting options.

Maxx is tops though for now, if can not. If waiting for the assumed Razr HD, that will probably be end of summer.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bingo6104:
Well i am wondering if i should wait or go ahead and get this maxx? Hearing they are going to try to get us ones that are grandfathered in to the unlimited plans to get us out with the upgrade at discounted prices makes me want to go ahead now so i can get locked in. I just hate that their is not many dev support for the maxx due to the locked boot loader. I like the dev support for the Nexus but don't want to take the gamble with the reception issues and data loss issues.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lobo173:
Get the RAZR Maxx no question about it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] collins521:
I think the dev support will get better once we get ICS officially and dig into bit and get somewhere
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ATRIXXIRTA:
No, the points in this video are for anyone interested in build quality and design. This phone was DESIGNED to be unrepairable. It was meant to be tossed and replaced, yet its one of the most expensive phones going. And MOST people (or at least I thought) here on xda were interested in modifying their phones, whether its, rooting, custom firmware etc... and the guy in the video is an elite xda member who knows these phones inside and out, programming, hardware, tthe works. Plus I work at a rogers store, have only been there since January, and have had 7 of them come back with cracked screens. And we've probably only sold about 15. Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUUUGE motor fan. But the lockind down of boot loaders, and phones like the razor, I'm slowly, and sadly, losing faith.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rushless:
Razr Maxx is a fine device, if wanting to avoid soon paying full price to keep unlimited..... for now....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanzol:
I've been on the Maxx for a couple months and love it, easily the best phone I've ever owned. Ran AXI0M ICS for awhile, now I'm on MIUI, and everything is smooth as silk. There are light-usage days where I go to bed with the battery at 70%.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sparkimus:
I work in a repair shop and have worked on a few RAZRs, and in my opinion they are no harder to repair than any other phone if you know what you are doing. It's actually one of my favorite phones to work on because the design is so nice. Moto really did a great job with the phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bingo6104:
I notice you have the nexus in you sig, so do you ave both now ?

Thats good to know, The size of this thing is a beast compared to my Inc, i think that's the only thing i am going to have a problem getting used to.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] treehumper:
I got mine on Wednesday. I was able to go through a heavy-use Friday and two light-use weekend days and not charge it up until now, though it could probably make it till morning (still only 20%). I haven't had a phone capable of doing that since way before smart phones.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ATRIXXIRTA:
You clearly didn't watch the video I posted, and are even.more obviously lying, lol. The shields are SOLDERED TO THE BOARD! Meaning, its not.designed to be repaired or modified. Its designed to be replaced. Sure you might be able to fix a cracked screen, but beyond that, it just gets chucked and replaced.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SquareBare:
My primary interest in the RAZR is the lapdock functionality which I hear mixed reviews about.

Can anyone comment on the effectiveness of the lapdock with the new update? It just has such great potential with ICS that it is hard to dismiss.

I have a nexus which I enjoy, although I am totally done with Verizon after this contract. Nothing they can do in the next 2 years can redeem their treatment of the nexus. Everyone knows they are holding the 4.04 update back. After this its GSM nexus devices on prepaid networks or absolutely nothing at all.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sparkimus:
I didn't watch the video, you got me lol. I'm aware the shields are soldered to the board. A lot of phones are built that way. However, 99% of the time a phone repair doesn't require replacing any of the components under them. Even still, removing them isn't a big deal if you have the right tools. Heat from the bottom, a little tacky flux, heko from the top, and they are off. Most repairs are for broken screens, bad batteries, broken audio jacks, charge ports, camera modules, etc. All of those are easy fixes on the RAZR.

The Razr Maxx is a great phone. Super fast and plenty of battery. I usually go 2 full days between charges with regular use. The lapdock is pretty neat too. I'm actually using my lapdock to type this. I use it just about every day at work to check email and use our POS system since it's web based. I used the first ICS leak for a few days and it made the lapdock even better.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ATRIXXIRTA:
Is the ics lapdock more like a tablet mod, or more moto-blur??

Ok ok, sounds like you know what your talking about, lol. Im not saying its a bad phone at all. I love moto, I just had so many of these phones comeback with un-explainable cracked screens. I think my store got a bad batch of devices because a rep from another store threw his down a hallway infront of me, and it was fine, lol. But ever since I've gotten into rooting and rom'n, I've had too many times where a battery pull was critical, so now im a little, well, afraid of built in batteries, lol.

Just watch the video I posted, if just for fun. Adam outler(guy in vid) is really knowledgeable and does a good job of showing the ins and outs of android and its devices.

I really hope the leaked info of what the ATRIX 3 is gonna be is real. 2 gigs of ram, tegra 3 quadcore, 720p display, 10mp camera. WHAAAAT!!! lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bingo6104:
I just wanted to thank you guys. With the information I have been reading and not too many talking about the maxx, I was skeptical on buying the maxx. I'd love to have developer support as they do with the nexus . I already had that kind of issue of dropping calls and data loss with a blackberry storm that I had 15 replacement of .So using it as a phone is really important and also having a good camera is important than all the other stuff is a bonus. Thank you guys again

update, got the phone for $99, couldn't pass it up, @199 and a $100 credit for upgrading to 4g, i just couldn't pass it up!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sparkimus:
It's just like a tablet interface, which works pretty well. Apps load just like they would on the phone, but you can click a button to make them switch to the tablet UI. Kinda neat.

FWIW, the lapdock works a million times better with a regular mouse. It's hard to swipe with a tracpad lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] darkness122:
I'm on beta 2 of TDJ's ucle2 ics rom.

I'm using the stock android keyboard since imho it doesn't get much better then how it already is. my question is though, is there a way to backup the dictionary, in order to restore it after flashing a new rom?

I ask this because I hate having to readd a bunch of words to the dictionary everytime I flash a new rom.

thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
Back it up in titanium backup, then restore app+data after flashing the new rom.

I think he was implying that the phone may be stolen.

Is this actually your phone?

It seems unlikely that someone would forget their unlock pattern and their Gmail account details.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Karl:
maybe he is old
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red_uh:
i did not stole it, ive tried entering all my mailing accounts and nothing seems to work. becuase all of my mailing accounts have only one password and that is weird. Ive tried the "null" technique and it does not work, anyone have a suggestion?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red_uh:
anyone can help me out here?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jerald2:
Haha sounds like a bad day for you. What I would do is download the gnex tool box thing and go into recovery and root and then flash a custom recovery. Then from there flash stock or what ever rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
Cmon read the guys profile.. 2 months old member with 13 posts and he was asking for rom in a lower end (undersea end) random piece of crap phone and out of nowhere he comes asking for directions on how to reset a blocked phone cuz he "cant" remember pattern and or Gmail account? Thats bs

Galaxy Nexus AOKP m5 Franco kernel m3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
You mean go into the bootloader, not root because there is no point and then flash a stock rom and THEN root.

Or flash cwm recovery and flash a custom rom, which in that case you won't need to root as all custom roms are already rooted.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red_uh:
uhm, i cant get to recovery mode as it is stock with the splash screen "Google" logo with the lock icon slightly open, it stays there like forever,

what tool box? for recovery roms and flashing custom roms ill look it up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Read my post, the other one is wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red_uh:
yep i get it, i need to flash a stock rom, but how will i do that if i cant get to recovery mode to flash a stock rom?

when i googled stock roms for my phone, there are so many choices i dont know which are the right ones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Get the gnex toolkit, its in development section.

Boot into bootloader, volume up volume down and power together.

Flash factory images to your phone, you will need different ones depending on what model your phone is, GSM can use yakju or takju or anything like that, cdma uses mysid (Verizon I think)

Read about them before you do anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red_uh:
ok, so im downloading the "Galaxy Nexus Toolkit v6.2.exe" hosted in MF. So the next thing im gonna do is, download the right stock rom for my phone, and then flash it using the gnex toolkit? correct me if im wrong please.

are you using the same phone as mine?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Karl:
:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Just follow the instructions in the toolkit thread.

Yes of course I am, this is the galaxy nexus forum.

Im not sure about you guys but I really hate most app icons. Mostly because they dont look uniform. Some are too big, too small, awkward shape, ect. I made these for myself but thought maybe you guys might find something that you like.

I made some of these and others I modified from different sources. I don't claim to have made all of them but I lost track of where I got some of them from.

Hope you like them. I might be able to take requests if you guys want something done (resize/something not too complicated).
