I just came from the X2 (functionally identical to the X). Unlocking and rooting with the Toolkit is incredible. You'll truly appreciate touch ability in cwm. Right now I'm running it stock (issues loading paranoid grrr...) and I love everything!

Except the battery...

Had it for about a week coming from a HTC sensation and have to yes yes yes I live this phone and would absolutely buy it again in fact I have a full upgrade in January (I bought this one full price from google) and I won't be upgrading then I probably won't upgrade till the next nexus comes out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nevrlow:
Agree^ however imo the sensation was an amazing phone. I loved the cam on it but where the nexus lacks in camera quality the screen size makes up for it. The gnex is a great phone. The way i see it is nexus phone is the big dog. All other phones try to be it. Except the hd2 that phone is just pure amazing.

I dont think we will ever see the "perfect phone"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hussmanne:
Only thing that's missing on this phone is a top of the line camera. I came from an SGSII, and had no problem selling my Lumix LX3 as the SGSII was good enough for most things. HTC One X and SGSIII have even better cameras, but now with the Nexus I feel I might need to purchase a digital camera again. Low light is terrible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AlwaysDroid:
^lKeeping in mind we are talking about phones here, not Nikon's :p

As for the gnex its my dream phone, I tryed my friends and it was amazing. The screens just a bit big, but ive never owned one so I can't criticize yet!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Yes I would buy it again because of the strong community for the device. And how easy it is to root it (my opinion) and the fact that it's first in line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevTN:
Thanks guys...I personally wish I could buy one straight from Google but they don't have it for Verizon. If I can't get someone at Verizon to bend a little bit I am going to the gnex in the next week or so.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kisrita:
Absolutely would buy it again. I would not consider buying another phone that is not pentaband gsm. So no sg3 for me. Only problem I thought I had was (incorrectly) thinking it had a weak radio. Turned out it wasn't the phone, it was the pretty battery cover I bought! D'oh! My only real issue is Citibank or google wallet, can't tell which, and even that was fine till I decided to flash a new rom (search before you flash if wallet is important to you). I can't comment on the camera, I use my phone to communicate only, it works well as a video phone, I'm no photographer so don't care otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Finally someone admits that the camera doesnt really matter. :D

This is my first android and I chose well. Went for the stock experience and I'm very satisfied with it overall. My next phone will be the next Nexus. I hope they try a unibody like design. I love this phone but I don't like the creaking sounds when holding it.

I traded my Droid RAZR for this Gnex and I would do it all over again. Love this phone. Unlocking the bootloader and rooting the phone couldn't be any easier.

Had the Nexus S before the Gnex ... loved the Nexus lineup from N1 although i hate Samsung I love the Nexus Prime :P I hate how they merged the Galaxy and Nexus line-up names
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mathfreak2000:
Definitely - one of the best phones I've ever had.

(I bought it because it was a Nexus phone, not because it was a Samsung phone :p)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmegalodon:
After having spent some time with my buddies Evo LTE, I am pretty certain I would. From the first day forward (?) I essentially abandoned the idea of skins and anything that an OEM could contribute, SW wise. Sense, in my mind, used to offer some pretty sweet features and visuals but I had come to avoid it. I spent the better time with my Evo 4G searching out AOSP options, so I don't totally feel like I'm cheating.

After a totally nerdy exchange, with my buddy, of devices for a couple hours during a baseball game, he came away loving the idea of SW keys and I came away reminded why I so wanted them. Sure, his battery and camera smoked mine ... but I didn't care. I was already used to poor battery life and not so great pictures. The battery life on this device is not very good, nor is the camera, but I imagine that's how so many have become used to it .... it's just better than what they have known coming into it, at least most of them. While it may not all be "awful," and truthfully, it's better than my past Evo, I did expect a little more. Alas, it was not enough to sway me. Thankfully I live on WiFi and happen to snap most of my pics when good lighting presents itself.

tl;dr

Yes, but maybe with not so much certainty, considering other device's dev potential. I may have been more prone to wait, check out another device beforehand - namely the SGSIII. But, a failing Evo will do that. However, I do not regret my decision. I love this phone. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
i dont get why anyone would want to own a s3. its ugly as hell, it comes with touchwiz and ugly waterdrop sounds and cheesy waterripples, if steve jobs would see this he'd laugh his ass off. it is a visual insult, a design wreck.my gf owns an s2, it feels bad to be so far from where the real development happens. shes sees all the awesome stuff on my nexus and cant have it. all we had was a broken touchwiz base themed to look like ICS but still nothing like it. it took like half a year until we had something close to stock and working properly. pretty much all the 4.0 roms were mere ports, no real innovation. it has changed now because cyanogen is ripe but man, without cm it would be close to garbage. same goes to sg3, without cm it would be electronic samsung trash. that company can put 10 super duper quadcores into their weird "pebble blue" phones and i'd still go for less equiped next-gen nexus. and im willing to wait, even if someone would gift me a sg3, i would sell it on ebay and invite my gf to diner for the money.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:
**** yeah I'd buy it again! No hesitation at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malchyk:
Yes! I like the pure google experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bzmotoninja83:
Stolen!!!

yes it was tested on animals. no it didn't fit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blame2:
I've owned the phone for about a week now. I upgraded from an og incredible and really love the bigger screen. The device is snappy, and I've not experienced any of the reported issues. Contrary to popular opinion I feel the battery life is pretty good but I have the extended battery. All in all I'm very impressed and happy with this phone. I thought about waiting for the sgIII. But I've never liked manufacturer skins. Hated sense, really hated blur and always found touch wiz looked cheap and cheese ball. I'd buy the phone again and recommend it to friends.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Borked mine 3 days ago, send it in to Samsung today. Using a spare Nexus S with cm9; the differences are immense, wouldn't know where to start.

I'd buy it in a heart beat!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thedoman:
Oh yeah! Only problem is I hardly use my Galaxy Tab 10.1 since I got this phone. The screen looks that good. I find I don't care to fire up the tablet when I got this baby all ready to go.

Sorry really laughed at the pic so I downloaded it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DSinfinite:
If your upgrade is available the 30th w/ VZW you can actually updrage 7 days prior no?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
yes i'd buy another time this phone.solded a 3 days old galaxy note and a 7 days old razr,after have gnex from 3 months (now are 8..)

i was lookin' for:

very good terminal

very good support\development\community

founded all these,plus very easy auto-driven flashable images from google to came back from custom roms\etc to stock condition,for example duo to assistance or similar causes,without have to worries about trick,tutorials,and all the steps required in others phones to simply return to stock rom\kernel\recovery and bootloader.very easy to do all the things...now with glados app,you can also lock\unlock bootloader without the pain to backup all because of formatting (lock\unlock in 2 sec,withot data loss)

i admit that the camera section is not as good as others phones like htc one x or sIII,but for my needs it goes well,no worries about that,i usually do more videos that photos (and videos are awesome).after that,i'm totally happy with that.personally i dislike sIII,not a p0art that i'd want (at least the cpu proc),in the top gamma phones of now,i highly prefer an htc one x rather than a sIII,but i'm going with nexus devices from now on..let's see what google will do with next nexus device..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killyouridols:
Would I buy it again? Yes. Would I take a closer look at phones being released a few months later? Yes also. I love my nexus, but as with most things, something brings out the green-eyed monster a few months later. I would buy again but have a closer eye on future releases to ensure no buyers remorse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
I need help........my IMEI has been erased by 'Load Default NV' from the 'REBUILD NV' menu. I don't have a backup of the EFS, but I do know what my IMEI was (It's on the sticker on the retail box.)

This happened to me a year ago on my Sensation, and I was able to restore it by hex editing mmcblk04, 5, and 6 with the IMEI.

Is this possible with the Skyrocket? I have horrid luck :(

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kipdurran:
I am wondering if the Sprint version of the SIII has FM radio. I know that a lot of people do not find FM radio helpful, but I do, as the gym that I go to simulcasts the tv over the FM.

Anyway, I went to the Sprint website and looked at the PDF manual for the SIII and did not find any reference to FM radio, while in the manual for the Evo 4gLTE does mention FM radio. They do spend a fair amount of print with respect to the Nascar app however.

Is there anyone in the know about this?

I was disappointed when Sprint, for whatever reason, disabled the radio on the S2 and if they did it again I might consider a carrier change.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bigb252:
I think we might just have to wait til it's released before we know for sure.

And we have the first question in the general section -_____-

I would say TuneIn Radio, but I don't think that would be relevant for your application
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] themilitaryman:
Well, I reallllly wanted the FM radio too however if you look at the sprint S3 review on phonedog you will see that on the screen that shows the applications that FM RADIO is NOT there -- but if you look at the international S3 reviews you'll see that it is listed when they scroll through the applications

not happy at all if the cut out the FM radio -- why would they do that ?

No radio app on my phone so I guess no radio.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Antagonistt:
Radio

It was my understanding that it was removed due to space restrictions. I don't really understand how this is so, since in the US version I thought the LTE radio was on the chip...but I do recall reading that someplace, just can't think of where at the moment.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmchssc:
There's a possibility that the hardware is capable of FM Radio, but it's been disabled in the firmware. If that's the case, then it might be available as a feature in a custom ROM/Kernel at some point down the road. If the hardware isn't there, then we're out of luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] boomerbubba:
This issue has arisen in every generation of Galaxy S phones since the line originated two years ago. People always seem shocked, which is amusing.

The obvious truth is that this is a business decision on the part of the U.S. telecom carriers, who control the industry in this country and own the customer channels, unlike the European business model that is more driven by handset manufacturers. And U.S. carriers are not in the business of giving away radios for over-the-air broadcast FM programming. They want to supply audio content through their own music services, or those of their marketing partners. When the end user is listening to FM, he is not listening to those streaming services. Even if the user just employs free IP-based radio-streaming apps, the content is being delivered over the network bandwidth owned and operated by the carriers. Which is ultimately what they are selling. The handsets are just subsidized bait.

So the phones are deliberately crippled. Get over it or move to Europe.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Danibal79:
While there may be some truth to what you said, prior to me getting the GS3, I had the LTEVO which did had a working FM radio. So I'm not 100% sure that this is the carrier's doing (well at least not 100% their decision).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Geronimo.USMC:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Thoragh:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1059296 has an app that apparently is working with some of the Galaxy S3's when CM9 is installed after settings changes. I am not sure if this is the Sprint version. I did install the app on my stock Samsung GS3 and so far have not been able to get it to play at all, but the developer is always making changes and trying to get it that much closer. He has been working on FM Radio apps for over a year now. If he gets it working for stock I think I know where $2.49 of my money are going at the very least :D Going off what is being said there though it is not an issue of the hardware not existing more of a driver based issue from what I saw.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
Just had a quick question. What keyboard is in the .211 leak? Is it the stock ics keyboard or have they incorporated a version of their multi touch keyboard? This is almost a deal breaker since none of the ics keyboards that have been included in any of the builds I have flashed have been good. They have all lagged behind my typing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] evonc:
Most of the stock roms seem to come with Motorola Input (own version) and Swype installed from what I've seen on the GSM leaks. I used to hate swype but this weekend I really gave the new beta version a chance and I don't think ill be switching back to Swiftkey/Smart Keyboard anytime soon. After you get used to it, it is lightning fast and very easy to use. It has its own caveats with the beta currently such as not being able to change long press time but I think I can live with it for the time being till a final version comes out.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
Hmmm if it is the stock Motorola keyboard that is just like the one that shipped with GB I may go ahead and flash one of the leaks. I'm just worried about getting stuck on ics if something goes wrong or doesn't work right and can't get back to GB.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] [TSON]:
It's ICS keyboard with resized keys to match GB
[Motorola Droid RAZR] evonc:
Well there are certain leaks that you cannot downgrade back to GB from and there is a possibility that you could be thrown off the upgrade path. I would make sure that the one you're flashing allows you to downgrade before going through with the whole process if you're concerned about that.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
How does it perform? Does it miss input from key presses? On the leaks I've tried if I type fast at all it misses 50% of the letters that should be showing up.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] evonc:
TBH I've never actually used the Stock Keyboard. I always install Smart Keyboard and lately i've been using Swiftkey 3 Beta until I gave Swype a shot. You can download trials for a lot of these keyboards from the market and try them out. They are definitely more customizable and feature rich than the stock keyboard if that's the only reason you're planning to flash ICS. The Swiftkey 3 Beta and Swype beta's are not available through market so they have to be downloaded and installed manually.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
I like the stock keyboard from moto because it doesn't lag behind my typing. Swift key lagged behind as well. If it's the typical Motorola built keyboard then great, but it doesn't sound like it is unfortunately.
