Same for me...i had an se x10 mini pro before this..for me was it like "wooow now i have an phone with an normal size display"

Send from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Until you use it. Then it becomes a nightmare. Yes a little could be shave off tge top and bottom but i fear the phone would have more girth. The nexus is about as perfect as it comes to form factor. Even got used to the headphone jack being on bottom.

Lmao. Doesn't matter you say in this thread. It brings a sly smile to your face.

...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] down8:
It's the perfect size.

-bZj
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upstandingcitizen:
Ohohoo.

I think that the size is spot on. The thickness doesn't hurt either.:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rasinell:
Gigidy :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ksocoolwitit:
i have pretty big hands so the size isn't a problem for me. I'm from Texas where we like having big things lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Q.Entity:
I would like to see it go to 5.3 like the Note...

Skickat från min Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dsixda:
Agree with your comment. When the phone was announced I thought it would be all screen and very little bezel; however the actual bezel at the bottom is as big as that on phones that have buttons there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 916Kev:
Love my phone

It was weird getting used to it at first (coming from an iphone) but now I'm extremely comfortable with it. Majority of my friends are iphone users and they love the screen but say the phone is too big for their liking. To each his own.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] se1zure31:
I thought my phone was going to be too big when I ordered it as well, coming from what I thought was the sweet spot: 4". Now, I am used to the larger screen and like this size. I do not think I could get used to the Galaxy Note though. I think its comical whenever I see someone make a call on one of those with out using a hands-free device!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
At least in Europe this statement is totally wrong. At the moment i can think of only three 4" phones: Galaxy S, Galaxy S Plus and iCrap.

Back to the topic. I can use GNex with one hand with no problem, but it is slightly to big. 4-4.3" would be sweet spot for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norm12:
Coming from an evo3d I thought this was big....I put it next to my heroc and was stunned at the difference
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nasimdejai:
After coming from an HTC Desire, the screen size of the GNexus hits the sweet spot. Before getting the it tho, I already had a tablet with a 10" screen. So it ended up being a normal screen size and anything lesser than that just felt awkward
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atatistcheff:
I have to also say that I think it's just a tad too big sometimes. Came from the 4 inch Galaxy S so I really wanted something bigger. Not sure why though, just to see what all the fuss was about I guess. Stretching to the upper left corner is quite difficult for me and even the top right is a bit uncomfortable. Love the phone, I'll keep it for a while but if the Google devices rumored for this Fall materialize I would probably go for something in the 4.3 inch form factor if it's available.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norazi:
as a phone, yes i think 4.3"+ is too big, but who honestly uses their "smartphone" as a phone these days... i checked my last mobile statement and i used maybe 15 minutes of talk time. i think 90% of my smartphone usage is internet, email, and data enabled apps... and for those uses 4.6-5" is perfect IMHO.. my gnex is more of a very portable tablet than a phone to me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
I really like the size if this phone, anything smaller would have been a showstopper
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NTolerance:
I'm ready for a Galaxy Note Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahmad.afef:
coming from Nokia X6, it's really big

but now feels fine to me not as big as the galaxy note and not as small as iphone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j c m:
I came from an iPhone 4 and immediately fell in love with the screen size on the gnex. Now, when I see my friends with iPhones, I just laugh at how small they really are.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmc0105:
2 hand = Brilliant size. Perfect for gaming,movies,web browsing etc...

1 hand = Not so practical for some people(small hand asian like me :p).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
Exactly same for me. I just gotten used to using it with two hands. And I don't mind one bit. I can text with one hand no problem. That's really all I need to do with one hand. If I'm browsing net or something else I usually used two hands anyhow on other phones. Watching videos now, I love this phones screen for it! Its awesome! All my friends are jealous when watching videos on my phone how you can actually enjoy the video and see it. Most of them all have iPhones, and they never watch videos on them cause they say they can't see it reall
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
I think its a bit too big. Like others I need to "shuffle" the phone in one hand to reach the top left hand corner. It's very nice for two hand operation though, both landscape and portrait.

But when I go back to my previous phone: nexus one, i find it too small. Perhaps a 4.5" with smaller bezels on the top and bottom would be just right.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juanzr1:
Not at all , my previous phones were Droid x, and Droid charge
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] =ColdFire=:
I think it's a great size, and I have small hands,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flippy125:
It feels like the perfect size and looks huge when going full screen for a movie
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
Coming from the Note, I wish the screen is a bit bigger, maybe 4.8" like the S3, I appreciate the higher pixel density though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iSaint:
I feel this way ... but not about my phone ;)

Or my penis .... why lie :(

Forever alone ....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pfmiller:
It's a little too big for me, but there really are no other choices. I want a Nexus phone so this is it. I had an N1, and I wouldn't upgrade to the NS without the notification light.

Oh, so you're saying I'm holding it wrong? For the record, I'm not an iPhone user. I'm a Galaxy Nexus user.

Yeah, that's the only reason why someone wouldn't want a huge phone :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
Coming from a T-Mobile G2, the GNex is HUGE! I've kinda gotten used to it though and I love the extra screen real estate saved by the lack of physical buttons especially when watching videos.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
I just hate these jokes. They're old, boring and repetitive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zolah:
I think the screen size is just right and the phone feels great to hold.

If you put the phone at the side of the S2 the amount of actual screen real estate is about the same due to the on screen buttons. Its nice when they dissapear when watching videos and you get to enjoy the entire screen.

I have no problem using it one handed and my hands aint that big really.

I have ordred my wife an S3 which is here in 2 more days so im sure that is going to make my screen look like an i crap size screen, but for one handed use this device is perfect for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spovat:
people need to realize that these aren't phones anymore. They're media devices with phone functionality. the gn is the perfect screen size for me since 80 percent of my use is browsing the internets, watching videos/sports and most importantly remote desktop (where the big screen really shines)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
I want a Nexus with Note dimensions!!!!

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
^^This.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nate2:
Maybe it's because they need to hold it a special way :^)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
The phone could be seen as a tad too big. But then sometimes I think its perfect size.

For those who can't reach the top status bar one handed, I just installed the app "hello status bar" from the market and place it on every home screen. Never have to reach up top anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
Most launchers support gestures, swipe down from anywhere on the screen brings down the bar. Problem solved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nate2:
I was considering a 5.0-inch Smartphone, until I saw 7-inch Android 4.0.3 Tablets going for less than $100. So I got one. And now, everything on my DroidX (4.3-inch) looks so small! And no Carrier contracts too ;)

And the 7-inch tablet fits in the side pocket of my cargo pants, not that I would recommend anyone carry a tablet that way...

And ICS is SO much nicer than Gingerbread, I tell ya...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thisquatchi:
I think the form factor of the Galaxy Nexus is quite possibly the best compromise between sheer size and portability. I can't go back to using phones with screens under 4 inches. While I love the quality of the display on the iPhone 4S and its powerful GPU, having so much screen real estate is something that I cannot undervalue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Can somebody let me in on this iPhone joke about "you're holding wrong?" I can't make sense of it. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
iphone 4 had an antenna issue and steve jobs, yes the late one and only, told customers you're holding it wrong instead of addressing the issue straight from the bat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It's tough for me. I think it's right on the edge of acceptable size for every day use. There are still situations when I have to try and use the phone 1-handed and I fear I'm going to drop it. That shouldn't have to happen. I really love the big size and get way more benefit out of it overall, but it still gets slightly annoying to hold sometimes.

That's one thing I think most people (at least here) can agree on, is that the screen on the iPhone is just too damn small. It's beautifully built and powerful, but when it comes down to it I just can't put myself through that day in and day out. I pick up my iPod Touch from time to time and it's like pulling teeth trying to do the simplest things.

I think that most people with iPhones wouldn't at all complain with a larger screen. Most probably want a larger screen, but are willing to just deal with the 3.5" size because that's the only way they can have an iPhone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
Or you could even install paranoid Android and have both the navigation bar and notifications in one place (bottom) :D

My only gripe is the missing aokp features... abit bare.

Hi all.

Just a quick video comparing the two for anyone trying to decide between the two. Or go from the GNex to the One X. Sorry for the shameful self promotion but there is no point making videos if nobody us going to watch them :D
[HTC One X] chrsada:
While both are 720p, there shouldn't be any contest between the Super LCD 2 and PenTile AMOLED.
[HTC One X] subhani:
i owned a gnex while my daily was a gs2. after one day of use i was certain the gs2 had a more superior screen in all respects except for the resolution. e.g. under very brightness colors were inconsistent or dimmer on the gnex. viewing angles weren't that great neither.

so when i got a hold of my current HOX, it blew the gs2 out of the water. i was mesmerized by the magic of the one x's display. it sticks to the surface and even feels like it pops out. viewing angles make the screen look unreal like a picture painted on the glass. it defies belief that it isn't a dummy model handset with a still picture.

i don't know what's responsible for that and it might actually be how HTC has the curved stretched edges by the bezel. all i know is that i believe it's the first device of this display standard. images and wallpapers just hypnotise you... the widgets and icons look so fine.

some said 'this is a bit like what's available on apples retina display'. it is only true to certain degrees only. for example, if you look at the retina display, you can still see a fine black line or border separating the wallpaper from the bezel of the phone producing an effect that there is still a layer of glass above the actual image/wallpaper. this effect is practically non existent on the HOX. besides, the retina display simply doesn't compare even to that of the s2 on one ground alone and that is the size of the screen. it is just too small. 5" plus is too big... 4" less is too small. just my opinion.

i was wowed by the gnex beside my gs2 at first purely on the high res and sharpness in detail. but the color reproduction and the viewing angles just put me off.

gosh, i still have the hots for the galaxy nexus and wouldn't regret doing a trade for my HOX. :)

I am trying to install the Swype beta on my wifes Rezound and I am getting the parsing error. I have it installed already on my Rezound with no problems. We are both out of box stock. Any suggestions?
[HTC Rezound] sportsstar89:
Re download swype
[HTC Rezound] rickadlee:
I'm having the same issues on my sensation xe. Think it's a problem with their servers, downloaded thousands of times before only today I'm getting parse errors. I've re-flashed my Rom too, after a superwipe.
[HTC Rezound] mefloump:
Re downloading Swype didn't make a difference. I think it is her phone. Seems like the screen won't time out either. Phone is 2 days old. Looks like I'm going back to the store.
[HTC Rezound] daxecutioner24:
Same thing happening to me I don't think it's her phone. So calm down. There's slide keyboard. Try swiftkey in my opinion is best keyboard on market
[HTC Rezound] camscell:
Same issue here updated an evo3d to ics and cannot get swype to work at this time with the parsing error.. This is pretty concrete it's not client side
[HTC Rezound] rickadlee:
It seems to be working for me now. Maybe give it a try. Checked their forums earlier and a lot of people were reporting the problem.
[HTC Rezound] mefloump:
Not being able to install Swype isn't the reason to go back to the store. The fact that the screen won't turn off (time out) is. I will give Swype another try. She just got the phone Friday and I noticed right off the bat that if you didn't push the power button, the screen would stay on. This phone is still way more awesome than the charge. Thanks for the advice.
[HTC Rezound] tCizler:
This may be a stupid suggestion, but did you check the timeout settings? Mine never times out either, but it's on purpose.
[HTC Rezound] Rubic13:
Right, I know its weird but after flashing 2 roms friday, I went this order each time. Downloaded the beta and ran the apk, went to the sign in screen, put in my email and pw. Hit the download english swype, got the parsing error. Backed out to the login screen. Put in the activation code there instead for the pw(my account was already activated...but was trying anything.) Said incorrect pw. I then relog back in with the correct user/pass. Aaaaand it worked. Both times...don't ask me why, it just did.
[HTC Rezound] Seph658:
Restarted Phone

I have the same issue using the Swype Installer on the Samsung Captivate. It's happened to me no matter how many ROMs I've tried (4 separate ROMs so far). I have this parsing error, I simply restart my phone.

On a side note:

I noticed I only have this problem on the first boot of any ROM I have flashed. For example, I flashed Team Nyx ROM earlier and on that first boot, I couldn't get the installer to download. After I restored all of my apps, I just rebooted and it worked.

... This has been my experience, so I hope this may be helpful to someone else having issues.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Dude, you were right. I think it's not so much putting in the activation key as it is just trying repeatedly. After about 10+ tries it finally installed and works.
[HTC Rezound] mefloump:
You were right, it worked today. Screen still won't time out. I double checked the settings and it is set to turn off in 30 sec.
[HD2 Accessories] the_bulk:
I was wondering if something like this could help in improve output sound on over beloved htc hd2:

http://www.fiio.com.cn/product/index.aspx?ID=6

http://www.fiio.com.cn/product/index.aspx?ID=28&MenuID=020301

The other model can be used as digital to analog converter but only on pc . Has anyone tried something like this on leo?
[HD2 Accessories] cccy:
I have used the E11, did improve the sound a little, but it would not be as good as using a USB DAC. Do note that the HD2 doesn't support connecting a USB DAC, so can't help you with that. A E5 would be a cheap and tiny upgrade in the sound quality.
[HD2 Accessories] friend'scatdied:
Better to use EQ through something like PowerAmp. Occam's razor is best when it comes to the audio chain.
[HD2 Accessories] the_bulk:
I tried poweramp ,neutron ,dsp manager and in the end when it comes to sq and funcionality in the end I think best way to go is default player and dsp manager. When hd2 was new and out I think I saw people managing to use it as usb hub. Or is just my memory playing tricks on me? Wouldn't something like that work with usb dac on hd2?
[HD2 Accessories] dandu5:
i have a firestone fireye mini which works quite well with the HD2 and is super small aswell.

just to throw that in.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] phoenix573:
Hey Guys

I just wanted to hear your thoughts on what you hope to put onto your home screens when Chameleon does get released in August?

I've donated to the good cause and here is hoping it's going to look as good as some of those prototype video's I've seen, wow!

what do you think would be the most useful to put on each screen?

I personally would like to dedicate a screen to a terminal ssh widget (like airterm or better terminal emulator), ezpdf/picture viewer widget for diagrams, world clock, calculator, and perhaps email on one screen.

For the fun stuff on other screens: Browser, stickit, Pulse, tapatalk/xda, netflix, wikipedia, playerpro, whatsapp, Fb, G+. Solid explorer, youtube and alot more!

Im looking forward to this new development into the android tablet UI, there will be alot of interesting developement into intergrating/optimising current and new widgets for Chameleon. Ultimately it saves the hassle of constantly switching or opening new applications all the time, it will be there right at your finger tips and I have a good feeling that it should be on overal great experience.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
I'm just hoping I didn't waste $10 and that it is actually released.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] phoenix573:
I'm pretty sure it will make it, $35000/50000 and 19 days to go. To think they got that much in about 11 days + they would probably extend it if it gets close to 50k
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ramis:
it will be released even if the budget is not met.

if the budget is met it just means it gets released earlier.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
I backed the kickstarter for the Chameleon but I am not even sure if I will end up using it. It certainly seems interesting and the demo looked nice but my needs don't change with the time of day, at least not as far as my tablet is concerned.

Doesn't matter though, I enjoy supporting innovative ideas and it only cost $10. I spend less than that in lunch every day :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Keion:
Once it comes out, I'm gonna ask /g/ to set it up, they always have great theme ideas.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaatisu84:
I updated to the latest MIUI - but before I did I deleted my old MIUI folder that I had on the SD card. Now this has caused me all sorts of problems when it comes to themes. I have had to create all the folders myself for anything to work. Wallpapers would not download until a created a "wallpaper" folder!

So can someone let me know all the names and the locations of the folders inside the MIUI folder on you SD card?

So far I have:

sdcard/MIUI/theme

sdcard/MIUI/wallpaper

Looking forward to some help on this, cheers!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tw15tr:
I am running LPF ICS and I can't connect to my 802.11n 5GHz wifi network.

Is it working for anybody else?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp79:
Might have something to do with the regulation of the country the ROM originated from. Did you try to change the channel to something lower numbered? I know the upper channels such as ch.161 uses higher power than for example a lower ch.48. So I wanted to keep it on ch.161, but I felt that using ch.48 gives be more reliable connection so I'm on ch.48 now.

BTW, I'm also on LPF, and have no problem seeing all the channels I used.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tw15tr:
I got it working. I found out that taiwan doesn't use the lower channels, so I had to change the firmware on my router and use the higher channels for it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lowspeed:
I noticed E2 is way faster. BUT big but, E2 has way worse reception.

Am i the only one?

I was on Jersey Shore today and I couldn't get any data working.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
If that is the case for you, then you could flash a different modem I suppose.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kevinallen4325:
I seem to have better reception.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
I've noticed way faster data speeds on E2. I used to see about 2 down, now I see about 6 down. And I've had no signal issues, always 4 or 5 bars. Afaik, different modems can give vastly different performance for different people. All depends on your area and what not. Just experiment with the various modems. I'm just glad Samsung finally got one right for my area, as I've only ever seen about 3 down on any phone I've owned until now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] knoxster:
The AT&T version of both of those modems, which is all us Canadians have access to thus far, has, for me, had much worse data speed numbers (non LTE anyway) on the Telus network than the stock GB Telus modem.

The E2 modem is, in my very non scientific testing, slightly slower for us here in Canada. (again, HSPA only, no LTE coverage here yet)

I'd really be interested in understanding what is actually different between carrier modem implementations. I noticed a similar speed differential in the stock modems.

I tried adjusting the RF preferences but that doesn't solve it. Its almost like AT&T doesn't have the same implementation of HSPA+ as the Canadian carriers.

I say all that with some degree of confidence in the numbers... having installed a variety of ROMs n modems and the results from the stock Telus modem are consistently better when I can use it.

Currently on the One Beta and associated LE2 modem, it shows very wonky "bars" by times...like none, in what should be solid five bar area.

My fourth floor office which never wavered from five bars on stock.. Consistently now shows any where from 0 to 3... But it still transmits and receives calls and data.

A buddy of mine is testing the Telus 4.0 release with Premium Suite... so in any event, it shouldn't be too much longer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
is it really that much faster? ive yet to upgrade from UCLD3 because its just running fine, wanted the next time i update my phone to be the last (offical ICS since i doubt we will get a update any time soon after that)
