Today I bought a slightly outdated Nexus S 4G

I immediately received an update from 2.3.7 to 4.0.4 although I was fully aware it was out of my GB comfort zone, I performed the update because people said ICS was quicker, and more responsive. Within the first 2 minutes of using I was unsatisfied. I tried to find ways of reverting back to GB, but I couldn't find much help. I don't know how to use Odin and my phone is not rooted. I can't use the recovery option without getting the 'sleeping' android with its chest open, then I have to do a battery pull. I HATE ICS and desperately want to go back to GB. Although this is most likely in the wrong forum I don't care. I just need help.

Hey all,

Have there been any (other) custom battery covers for the Gnex? I've seen and read the following:

* the limited edition - Looks like LV, not really into that :p

* the one in MWC - smooth, blank, but custom crystal designs. I was actually interesting in finding a blank one... Never found any.

* White cover - from white Gnex. Don't think it will go well on the "titanium silver Gnex"

* 3rd party metal backs - problems with NFC and GPS. Was planning to get them until I heard these problems :(

Ideally, I want a black plastic one (without that texture at the back, just smooth)... matte or gloss would be fine. Does anything like this even exist or would you guys just recommend getting a decal? Is there an option to only get the back cover section? I don't plan to cover the whole phone.

Not really what I was looking for :( But thanks for that.

Saw it once, but slipped my mind :p I like the texture, but was really looking for a more "plain" design. Think this one will come the closest to me wants so far though.

Looks like I might just need to get some decals, interesting find while browsing your suggested thread:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Ebay had a few knockoffs of the limited edition Google battery cover for a little while. If you want a black version, I would say keep your eye on ebay and just grab one of those knockoffs, then paint it with vinyl dye.

Neither Samsung nor any third parties have ever developed a plain battery cover for the Galaxy Nexus. You either get the stock textured battery cover, or one of the Google or Docomo limited covers. Personally I went through the extra work and expense to import a Docomo limited cover for my Galaxy Nexus. The texture feels great and I love the design, so for me it was well worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ronak47:
Where did you manage to get the docomo limited cover from?

Do you have any links?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kookooktchoo:
You think that would be better than plastic spray paint? I'm not trying to change the texture of the door, I just want a white door for my extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
Thanks for that :)

Think I'll browse around Ebay for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
The only way to get them is to buy them through auction sites in Japan, but to even buy and have them shipped you need to be a Japanese resident. Since I'm not a resident, I signed up for an account with Shopping Mall Japan, where they act as a middleman to allow U.S. residents to purchase goods from Japanese auctions. It takes a few weeks to complete the whole process and can end up being pretty costly, but in all I paid about $40 (not counting the minimum deposit required by sites like Shopping Mall Japan, so $50 total).

For the auction, I went through Yahoo Japan. A helpful search phrase for the battery door would be something like "SC-04D プレミアムキャンペーン リアカバー". Hopefully you have a basic grasp of the Japanese language, otherwise you'll have to rely on Google Translate a lot to find what you're looking for.

---------- Post added at 03:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 AM ----------

Vinyl dye is better if you want just a single flat color and are planning on spending a lot of time handling the parts after spraying. There's no sanding or prep work required, and you only need one coat and it dries within minutes, so there is a very minimal change to the texture of the part compared to painting with several coats. High gloss parts will lose their sheen, but matte parts usually are about the same after spraying.

I would only recommend regular paints to someone who has a lot of experience with painting plastic parts, and if you're not a fan of just a plain, single color.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I just painted my extended battery door with plastic spray paint yesterday. It's still drying, but it looks fine. It's semi-gloss and not the same exact color, but oh well.

I have a white Verizon door coming in that I'll probably trim to fit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
Could you share some pics please?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kookooktchoo:
Yes this would be great, especially if the color differences could be highlighted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DynamicRam:
A while ago i sanded the original cover and painted it grey because i love the minimalistic look but without the texture at the back it looked cheap
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
Looks cool, that's pretty much I was looking for. Guess I can just find the cheapest cover on eBay and do this myself .

Can't really see in the pic, but did that turn out glossy or matte?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DynamicRam:
I will try to take some more pics

if you polished it you will get a glossy and smooth finish, if you didn't it will be rough and almost matte
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DynamicRam:
Look at the second pic you will get orange peel if you didn't polish it and it looks ugly and only visible from an angle

I will post some pics after polishing later

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 2g11:
I've been suffering massive battery drain on my phone since trying out a different region stock(xxml8) and flashing CM9 over it. Even after a complete wipe and restoring my old stock XXKL3, the drain is the same. I get 10hrs at best. Cpuspy tells me my 122Mhz state is unused, so after deep sleep the next state is 245mhz. I never used cpuspy before my battery problems so I don't know if this is normal on stock rom. Or could playing with the governors on CM9 break something with my cpu and causing huge drain? I think if the 122Mhz was available to be used I would use less battery. Any ideas guys?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] fayosi:
122mhz setcpu

-On the frequency i've been always using 122mhz--1401mhz because it saves power on lock screen and makes my battery last longer.

-you are not supposed to use 122mhz because you cannot listen to music at 122mhz because it stutters and laggs. thats why default is 245mhz.

-If samsung made the slowest speed 122mhz everybody will be complaining on music.245mhz can play music with no lagg and stuttering.

..............on demand 122mhz to 1401mhz is the best for me.................
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 2g11:
Using Antutu Cpu Master I've been able to set the minimum frequency to 122Mhz. Will check if helps. However, my battery consumption with screen on is still huge. Don't know how I can fix this. I could get close to 6hrs continuous screen-on time before.

[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
From the Sony Tablet Help Guide:

"If both the Bluetooth function and the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi function of your tablet device are enabled, interference may occur and cause

slower data transfer speeds or other problems."

Try turning off the tablet's Wi-Fi to see if that will increase the Bluetooth file transfer speed.
[Sony Tablet S] agc93:
It's probably not usually that slow, but Bluetooth file transfers are an inherently slow process. BT is made for ease of use, decent range and easy interoperability with other devices such as headsets, so it's not really made for fast OTA binary transfers.

As Cat mentioned, try turning off the WiFi to reduce interference and make sure there are no microwaves operating in the area. They mess with practically anything wireless.
