I find it good enough to watch a movie or hear a few songs.

Sure, it still sounds like someone talking down into a trash can, but what can you expect from such a small speaker.

I use it alot at work if we lack a radio or just want some musik to tag along. It gets the job done, but you dont get the high end hifi experience from it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
It's quite loud, and the quality is surprisingly good for a phone.

well, the sony talks about 3D sounds in the handset but I didn't experience such a thing. But the sound quality is pretty decent when comparing to other devices. Obviously you can't get surround sound with this kindda speaker. But in contrast to other sets, XPS's sound quality is outstanding!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
So I decided to write a complaint about Samsung to the BBB.

To make a really long story short. I received a GN with bad color. Had to fix myself and a month later after having it, it just died! Sent in for repair. I was told it would be repaired by June 27 and then shipped out. Received a email today stating "Please be advised that your Samsung service ticket [4115*****] has been placed on a temporary hold due to an unavailable part.

As soon as the part becomes available, your device will be repaired and shipped promptly"

I called Samsung AGAIN and they won't do ****.

So I am complaining and won't be a customer of Samsung again. WOW!!

Any success with this route? Trying to get a refund, don't want their crap back!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
Sorry to hear that but calling BBB won't do nothing to be honest.

Small claims court is the only route for genuine recourse against large companies if you can't afford fancy lawyers...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brmayhem:
If you research a bit about Samsung's practices then you'd find out that it's one of the biggest piece of **** corporations in the world. It has been since the very beginning. And it's definitely not limited to cell phones. Problem is, they're a mammoth and manufacture awesome displays for low prices so that means that they'll be on top for a long time. Hundreds of thousands of complaints world wide and hardly ever a single **** was given.

Bottom line is, wait for the phone to get fixed and delivered to you. Good luck.

Let's hope the next Nexus phone isn't gonna be manufactured by them. Again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Someone's exceedingly rude? I personally NEVER have any difficulties with any Samsung products.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
Thanks, looks like I will have no choice but had to do SOMETHING, too bad this is how America does things. The consumers are always caught on the **** end of the stick. I won't ever! buy another Samsung product, I said that after the Vibrant, but $399 was too good to pass up, and now I know why. I still like Android, but I am seriously considering IOS now....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmattp:
No... brmayhem is spot on. Samsung sucks and they don't care about their customers at all. They spent so much energy ripping off Apple, but they missed Apple's strongest and most redeeming quality: Their customer service.

Samsung blows. Nothing you do will ever get through to them. All you can do is use a different phone, use the repaired Nexus and flash a kernel like Trinity to fix the color issues, and wait until December and hope the next Nexus device is manufactured by a different company.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
How would they spend so much money "ripping off Apple?" They've had these designs WAY before Apple iOS with BadaOS. Get your facts straight.

So much Samsung hatred and trolling happening in this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmattp:
1: I said they spent a lot of ENERGY... not money

2: Don't start this. It's well known, well documented, and spread all over the internet that Touchwiz had some design elements that were direct rip-offs of iOS. Even the faux-metal band around the Galaxy phones were a nod to the first three iPhones.

Remember this old favorite?:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
And who are these Defenders of Samsung? Some kind of SHIELD program? Can't those who get faulty devices do something or say something about it? Looks like you are the troll man....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
How come the Iphone on the right looks a little different? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Most large companies do not care about customers. They care about profits. Apple is no exception. People think because customer service slaps on a pretty face and a smile that the company cares.

Simply not true. I can remove the word Samsung on the above hate-filled rants and it would be true.

Ford...Chevrolet...Apple...HP....Dell...Sony... the list is a mile long.

People say stuff like this all the time, but people on the other end are human beings too. Your own presentation goes a long way in getting things done. If you are difficult, they will be difficult too. If you are a douche...guess what? So are they.

I can give you a TON of HP customer service nitemares on the internet. I can even relate to the OP with my own computer with HP. I could surrender and fling my hands up in the air and say they wouldn't help me. Instead I stayed firm, yet civil and respectful.

End result? My computer which kept being postponed for repair due to part shortage was actually replaced with a brand new machine. The cost? Me being a human being and not an animal.

I am not saying the OP is, but it is hard to see how you really are acting by looking in the mirror. Have a neutral party hang out with you when you call Samsung sometime and see if maybe your attitude is less than appropriate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
We going there? Should we talk about the ripoffs Apple did to Google?

I guess that is OK though, because its Apple. They can do no wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
lol I don't even know why people use that picture at all..... it fully circumvents the idea of Android's DESKTOP and 5 homescreens (or whatever you set it to based on your launcher). its a very misleading picture, not to mention Apple photoshopped one of the pictures to make it seem like they're both of same height

http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/19/did-apple-shrink-the-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-in-dutch-lawsuit-filing/

+1 to what adrynalyne said... Apple's Notification System is VERY much like Android.

But in the end, iOS and Android have been getting ideas from each other. Non-stop, that is what competition is all about.

Notification System, Multi-tasking, etc.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmattp:
We're not "going there". I'm simply using the image to support my assertion that Samsung wasted a lot of time and energy copying Apple's design but didn't copy their excellent customer service and warranty.

That's where it ends really. I'm not here because I want to defend Apple. I like tech/gadgets/consumer electronics. I'm not an Apple fanboy, nor am I an Android fanboy; I'm just a techie - a fanboy of all electronics - and I have had nothing but terrible experiences with Samsung products.

There's an obvious difference between bringing a defective device into a store and having it replaced on the spot, and calling a call center across the world to make arrangements to ship it out (paying the shipping yourself), waiting a week or two (maybe longer) and getting the same device back with the same issues.

...and yet I own a Series 5 550 and a Galaxy Nexus. I bought them and use them every day because they run the Google operating systems I want to use. There is no brand loyalty here...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
In what context are you saying that Samsung copied Apple's design? since this is the "Galaxy Nexus forum." If you're implying that Samsung copied their design for TouchWiz, I don't see any TouchWiz being featured on stock Galaxy Nexus.

I think most of us are simply having the problem that you're straight up bashing the company in a inappropriate manner regardless of how "angry" you may be. It's kind of unacceptable to be swearing and pointing fingers directly at Samsung because I haven't had a bad experience with their customer service at all.

If you're having phone defects, you should deal with Verizon first. My Galaxy Nexus is from Negri Electronics (third party vendor) and they offer great customer service as well as Expansys. So I can't comment on Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmattp:
Swearing? Really?

I've explained my comment twice already.

Only customers who purchase the phone subsidized through Verizon can get a refurbished unit as a replacement if there is a problem with the device after the 14-day grace period. If you buy the phone used, you have to go through Samsung.

Also, getting several replacements in a row with the same defect is defeating and really says something about a company.

Please remove yourself from Samsung's ****.

Aw gee whiz, Beav... sorry for swearing again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
That sounds like a personal problem with your carrier (or the store you've purchased it from), not the manufacturer of the phone. Yeah, there are defective units out on the market... but your carrier is the one who made the policy on 'refurbished units' as replacements.

This thread isn't really going anywhere. So I'll stop here and a mod will most likely close this thread soon. Good luck! Enjoy your jelly bean in the next coming days :)

Can't wait for Nexus 4

Then why do the unlocked GSM phones from the Play Store have the same problems?

PS: I'm not responding to you from here on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Why ask a question if you won't respond to his answer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brmayhem:
I guess I'm the potty mouth here, not the other guy. Could careless however.

I have a very profound hate towards Samsung. Yet I still have one. I just love Nexus devices as much as the next guy in this forum. It all started with my second ever Android phone, the Samsung Behold II. Prior of it coming out, Samsung promised users an upgrade from Android 1.5 to 2.0 as soon as Google released it to them (and they slaughtered it with their disgusting UI). After the release of Android 2.1 with TouchWiz, Behold owners flooded Samsung support accounts (email, phone, Facebook, pigeon mail... you name it) and demanded an answer for the update. What did good ol' scumsung do? Deleted all evidence of their promises (YouTube videos, press release...) and proceeded to act as if nothing ever happened.

Just ONE example of their behavior.

As far as who copied who, who fricking cares? It's called innovation. One company uses an idea from the other and improves upon it. Bell, Motorola, Nokia, Qualcomm. They're some of the big pioneers. While I do hope this lawsuit war ends soon between all giants, I just really doubt it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyhook:
How did this thread go from. "large companies don't care about customers" to a pissing contest between two tech companies (both of whom really aren't that innovative)?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Saintfyre:
The BBB is a joke, while companies strive to respond to their complaints they're not a regulatory agency or legal entity.

The one you want to complain to is your State Attorney Generals office, those complaints have to be addressed (to my understanding).

Your location says you're in Orange county, I'm assuming either CA or FL.

You can submit the complaints online here:

Florida State Attorney General Online Complaints Form

California State Attorney General Online Complaints Form

Be prepared to follow up though on this as you will most certainly be contacted.

When you fill out this form you'll need Samsungs contact info in the US, here it is:

Samsung

105 Challenger Rd.

Ridgefield Park, NJ 07660-0511

(800) 726-7864

Hope this helps!

I dont like Samsung as a company, after having some "Galaxy" phones I noticed that they are a ****ty company with really bad support. I just buy their stuff now because I love the Nexus line (mainly because of the software) and I refuse to buy a not Nexus phone.

The day Google release Nexus phones with other OEMs is the day that Samsung will never see my money again.
[HTC One S] floydsox:
I don't have any problems with the phone except it won't vibrate when I receive notifications and sms. But it will vibrate when I receive calls and set alarms. I do have the "vibrate when receiving notifications and messages checked and tried unchecking it as well. Anyone else have this issue?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomix96:
So for anyone out there, the official first release candidate came out for Cyanogenmod 9 tonight. The Verizon Xperia Play (zeusc) got the rc as well. I was thinking that the gamepad will not work in this due to the kernel change for cm9. Is this correct?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
According to the cm9 page only the GSM version is supported. Bummer.

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/sony-ericsson-xperia-play-gsm

However there is a CDMA zip you can flash by Atarii (i think) that supposedly will make this CM9 work on the CDMA R800x. I have not done any of this, and if I am incorrect in this can someone please correct me.

I believe this is the CDMA patch to flash in recovery:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amrut223:
Hi guys,

So I just picked up my Galaxy S3 on an Optus contract. I noticed if I am in a call with my Bluetooth headset while my wifi is on and my wifi will constantly disconnect. It wont disconnect if I am not in a call but as soon as i go into a call with the Bluetooth my wifi goes crazy.

Does anyone else have these issues?

Edit: I am on the latest software update and I have tried turning off the power saving mode and resetting the phone. None of which has worked.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amrut223:
Does anyone have any advice?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omeryounos:
I had similar Wi-Fi issue with my brand new galaxy s3. A factory reset fixed it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amrut223:
This has not fixed it for me. I have even flashed custom roms and still having the same issue. I am not back on my stock rom and thinking about returning for warranty.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funb0b:
Yeah I have the same issue, bluetooth can be on and not connected with no problem, but once connected to something the the wifi will drop randomly.

There seems to be no pattern sometimes it will drop in a few seconds to 30mins very random.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bugblatter:
Old topic, but I've found that if Bluetooth is working hard then the wi-fi throughput drops to almost nothing and also keeps droppping the connection.

I found this when streaming with Apt-X from online services such as Spotify, Rdio and Napster (I've tried them all). I've also streamed from my NAS over wi-fi.

To confirm this I've run the SpeedTest app when streaming Apt-X and when not. With no streaming I get excellent speeds, when streaming (from an mp3 stored on the phone) the test either fails due to a failed connection or it hobbles along and gives very poor results.

I suspect the same aerial is being used for both wi-fi and Bluetooth.

I'm using 2.4GHz wi-fi; it's possible that 5GHz wi-fi may not have this issue.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] Maverick777:
Anyone get Light Flow and Go SMS working together? I can't get the notification LED to work whether it's using GO SMS's built in "blinking LED" function or using Light Flow.

When attempting to use light flow, I turn off the "blinking LED" option in Go SMS. I've also tried using the alternate monitoring options.

Still not working. :confused:

EDIT: Well, I ended up uninstalling Light Flow. Notification light works again. I just can't customize the LED color. Guess I'll have to wait until Light Flow gets updated to work with the S III.

Also, even though Go SMS "blink LED" works, the color settings are messed up. The color you pick doesn't correlate to what shows up. Must be an app issue as well. But hey, at least it works.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] wings76:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] joefloater:
Does the LED actually blink for you albeit with effed up colours? Cause it doesn't blink for me, just stays one solid messed up colour.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] wings76:
It stays solid just like you said.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] teh roxxorz:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] disturbd1:
I'm so glad this got brought up, but it's a shame nobody's found a fix yet. It's such a subtle, yet mindblowingly irritating thing. Mine is sold red, no matter what I change in both the system LED settings, or the GoSMS settings. I haven't bothered with LightFlo, since everyone reported the mis-representation of color changes in the settings.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] SlakWReX:
If your on a twiz rom the colors are gonna be all messed up. For example if you use light flow to change the color of the led you'll notice that the color you set it to be is not the color it is. This is an os problem. If you flash a stock android based rom like cm9 cm10 or aokp they will be fixed.

It creates ext 3 partition. From what I saw after I flashed it.
[HTC Wildfire S] baluuu:
I think ppl who have no idea what something does shouldnt be allowed to repost it. This is the a2sd darktremmor script i havent looked at it but it esentialy it says to your phone that your ext partitition on sd card is part of the internal memory. If the script incloudes automaticly creating of ext3 partition that means 2 things-you wont need to partition your card yourself, you will lose all your sd card data as partititioning requiers formating sd. And kido this is not skype or IRC or whatever its forum, organize your toughts and put them in 1 post. It is nice that you are trying to do something good but in this case i think you are better of doing nothing as you might cost someone his sd card data.

Edit: Ok from what i gather it will not create ext3 partitition. However if you have ext4 it will reformat it to ext3. I might be wrong im no exper and i just took a quick look at the script.

else
