[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DDeveryday:
I have been using the HTC Sensation for a year now. I'm thinking of getting a new phone to use for at least a year. The Galaxy Nexus seems to have the best price to performance ratio right now. And I love the great support it gets from Google. If you're in my position, would you get the Galaxy Nexus?? Do you see yourself using the Galaxy Nexus for another year? Why?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] midnightdevil66:
Definitely, but then again I keep my phones until they die. My gnexus is my second smart phone, moto droid being first. Does what it needs to, it's quick, and lot of mods for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ray3andrei:
Yes, but if you dont have the takju or yakju build, you should flash to them 4.0.4

Hope I helped :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Nope. I buy all the Nexus phones when they come out and sell the old one.

Galaxy Nexus GSM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjcapp:
Since I won't be upgrading anymore to keep unlimited data I will be keeping mine regardless of what I buy next. It's paid for and I don't want the feeling of desperation If I need a replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
I'm with nxt. Out with the old, in with the new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SocialReject:
Yup.

Only Nexus though.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
Oddly enough, I think I will stay with this phone for a while. Always having the latest OS version is awesome. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cenwesi:
I too had the HTC Sensation. I just recently got the Gnex (GSM) and i am planning on keeping for atleast 2yrs. Even if the next Gnex comes out i don't think i will get it.

PS: Never getting any other phone UNLESS it is a nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
I never use to be someone that would waste so much money on phones every year but I find myself buying every Nexus that comes out every year.

I would probably keep the Galaxy Nexus for longer if my screen didn't have terrible stock whites (they are yellow) and terrible banding and gradient issues. All of these screen issues pretty much force me to use black colored themes which are nice, but is severely limiting.

For example, with JB and the lack of themes for it, it pains me to look at the stock screen/color settings on my phone. I don't think a phone should require 3rd party intervention to this degree.

Thus, when I buy the Nexus 4, I'm gonna make sure that it's a winner. I am absolutely enjoying my time with the Galaxy Nexus but I will not go through this annoyance again. Therefore, I'm moving onto the next Nexus ASAP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
Have you tried flashing another kernel like francokernel and tweaking the color multipliers and gamma settings? (I personally don't understand that stuff, but I've played with it a bit to get my whites whiter).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Ill probably stick with it. I feel guilty going from Nexus S to Galaxy Nexus already but it was so worth it :D ... except the part where the price just keeps going down (~700 to $399 to $349.99)

... depends on how much the Nexus 4 price is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
Oh I definitely tweak the colors using a custom kernel. Wouldn't be able to live without it.

My point is, however, that it reliance on a custom kernel and inverted Gapps shouldn't be necessary for my phone to look normal.

Right now I'm on JB and would love to stick to the stock kernel for performance and battery life but I'm forced onto Franco kernel for the color tweaks. That's the kind of limitations I'm talking about. This shouldn't be so.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
I'm assuming you're not able to get a warranty replacement for some reason (or you've given up on that)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HS™:
I would love to use SGN as long as i keep getting new updates from google after using JellyBean on my SGN it makes the best smartphone i ever used :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FadedLite:
I see myself keeping it. Now with jelly bean LTE, I'm set. Since its the nexus, it will get all the updates first and the phone has one of the best developer communities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Matthew9559:
Nope, I will upgrade to the next Nexus phone or an iPhone 5. Possibly get both in the end... I have a sickness. I just really enjoy all of mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
I've never considered it.

The last thing I want is a refurbished Galaxy Nexus that may have tons of other problems. At least I know my problems here are restricted to the display.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
Oh...hm are you sure Google would send a refurb rather than a new device? When did you buy it? Usually refurbs are used only if the device is an older model...though that's through carriers, who knows what Google will do.

I just found that Google actually has phone support for Nexus devices. If you head to www.google.com/nexus and follow the support link. They might be able to help you get a new device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sdobron:
I'm keeping it. Love the phone, unless the next Nexus is a huge step up then I will not bother upgrading... we'll definitely be getting upgraded to whatever the next Nexus ships with so I'll be happy with this for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greeced:
I guess it all depends on what the next Nexus is. If it doesn't have a "WOW" factor to it to separate it from this current one then no.

If it does, then yes...

Whatever the case, I think I'll wait a couple of months after the next Nexus release and read all the real user reviews and base my decision to move from this device then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexusman2:
I bought the nexus one, then i convinced my wife to get the nexus s (so I can hack it :) ) and 6 month ago I got the galaxy nexus... so normally I ll use my GN until Nexus 5. (The next nexus 4 is for my wife :D )
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oxirane:
Probably. Unless a Nexus comes out that's significantly more amazing and I can sell this/buy the new one without too great a loss.

However, with phones at the point they are now... I don't know what the manufacturers will be able to do which would make the GNexus seem significantly inferior. Lag is near nonexistent, GPS is speedy and accurate, the phone is filled with nice features... the only possible con is the 5MP camera. But in my opinion, the pictures it takes are completely fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
I'd almost guarantee the next Nexus with have significantly better camera hardware. I don't see any need for vast improvements in software performance but I will be looking for design improvements and hardware upgrades like Bluetooth 4.0 and a better speaker.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiatomic117:
an 8MP camera would be nice. but i'm really hoping for something with a metal body. plastic feels tacky [IMO] for such an expensive and internally impressive device. and a smaller screen. the GNexus is a little too big for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
It has to be a significant upgrade for me to change to the next nexus.

Unless ofc I accidentaly drop it and breaks it like my sgs did right b4 the sgn was released ;)

Swiftkey'ed on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norm12:
I agree with the build quality comment. Coming from an Evo3D to this I was a little surprised how much more robust and substantial the evo felt. This doesn't feel like a cheap phone but HTC has the tactile quality things figured out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
I assume I'd have to deal with the warranty with my carrier (or even Samsung) and not Google, unless your telling me that Google handles warranties for the Nexus phones specifically? I've never heard of that before but even if it's true, I'm in Canada anyways and not in the US.

I got mine during launch so it's not as if I got it from the Play Store directly or anything. If I have to deal with carriers or Samsung, I'm almost guaranteed a refurb.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Since I just got mine, I'm looking to hold it for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ebagdirtbike:
I bought my nexus at full price $680! So when the next nexus comes out I will wait until it hits the Google play store for half the price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtmjr90:
Bless you for your patience and self-restraint.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ogrady94:
I plan on using mine until the next nexus comes out. I like to buy only nexus phones as they are very easy to mod and have lots of mods. Also they get all of the updates from google first.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
No, I don't see myself using this phone in 2013 at least.

I do however see self using the Nexus IV.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pr.TOSHIBA:
First of all, I sincerely apologize if this is the wrong section for such a post.

Basically I trying to setup a homescreen in which part of it can scroll vertically, but another part doesn't move. I currently have Lightning Launcher, which is great by the way, but I can only set it up so that the entire screen scrolls. I was thinking it would be nice for have a spot on the left side of the screen for favorite apps and maybe some widgets (I guess you could call it a "dock"), and on the right side of the screen have a scrolling list of the rest of my applications. Probably with 1/3 of the screen being the left portion and 2/3 being the right portion. Can this be done with Lightning Launcher? or any other launcher? and how?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pr.TOSHIBA:
Anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfraBlueAndroid:
It can be done with Lightning Launcher.

I am a fan, actually. :)

First, select the apps you want in the dock.

Then, line them up on one side of the screen.

For each, long press in the new version and select pin.

In the old one, you go to common itms setting or something.

After you pin, you can add a dock by giving the apps backgrounds.

[General Topics] vanderx:
Just got an OTA update for my Vodafone Romania Galaxy Ace Plus, some 10.41 MB about improved stability. Can't see no change so far... Now sporting 2.3.6 (DDL1D) ,baseband version s7500BULE1 ( before was s7500BULC1 ).

Also, I bought my phone locked ( even though i paid full price, Vodafone Romania took about 2 days to send me the unlock code)...as soon as the phone was unlocked it updated right away to v 2.3.6 ( it came with 2.3 from factory).

So for the guys looking for version 2.3.6 , must make sure your phone is not locked on any particular network or use the means available on this forum to update .

Peace !

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jdelano:
For the second time in a matter of days, Apple was granted a temporary injunction by a US court banning sales of a Samsung mobile device - this time the Galaxy Nexus smartphone.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Darmokk:
This is the first serious blow to google and android. The galaxy tab doesn't count for much of Samsung's overall sales, but the Galaxy Nexus is a popular device (and was the ICS flagship).

If the courts ultimately rule in Apple's favor in regards to the unified search patent, that could have devastating consequences for Google Now and S-Voice. Apple has nothing to lose here, they only had to put up 96 million in bond (chump change) and if the courts rule in favor of google the people who couldn't buy a Nexus (and bought an iPhone instead) will negate much of that
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] malinois16:
:( I for one can't believe that the courts let this happen, as I really can't understand how that is coptright infringement. Next thing you know apple will claim they on the rights to smart phones.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Darmokk:
Oh they've already claimed that. Several times actually
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] android addicts:
But still Google sell Galaxy Nexus on play store. Looks like they're not stop it.

Sent from Taptalk. Please excuse my brevity.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zaisaroni:
Apple has to put up a bail amount (millions in this case) to the court to ensure Google will be paid for losses if the court case swings the other way and the Galaxy Nexus is found to be non infringing. Once this is paid, then sales should be stopped.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Darmokk:
If you want one you better act now, they won't be there long. Once Apple posts the $96 million bond (which is nothing), Google BY LAW will have to stop selling it smh....
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] DynamiteRave:
I was going to wait to buy a nexus but after reading the ban I bought one. apple is irritating me more and more these days. I'm about ready to throw my ipod away.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] GuestK00145:
Shouldn't the jelly bean update change the injunction ?from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] pvcdroid:
Watch this website. This guy seems to think that the S3 could be added to the injunction in short order:

I wish Verizon would hurry up and get their S3 out the door.

From Foss Patents website:

"Apple is now probably going to think about requesting a preliminary injunction against the Galaxy S III smartphone. Earlier this month, Apple wanted to add that device as a second accused product to this process. There were two patents with respect to which Apple believed Samsung's infringement had the same pattern, and the '604 Siri patent was one of them. If Apple moved for a preliminary injunction against the S III now over the Siri patent, it would be very likely to win, but it would have to accept a postponement of the trial of its first lawsuit against Samsung. This is a tough choice to make, but a motion over only one patent wouldn't necessarily cause a huge delay."
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Narcistic:
Will not be surprised if sgs3 gets added as well
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] drawde40599:

google didn't spend all that money on motorola for nothing I'm sure there's something in there .... apple sneaky, Google sneakier :p
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] blackguy101:
I get my damn phone from Verizon in 9 ****ing days....apple can do whatever they want after i get it but for now they can go f*ck themselves
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Narcistic:
I keep seeing comments like this being made all the time yet nothing ever happens. Google seems happy to sit on the sidelines lately. Or they just don't have anything to fight back with.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
And the JB flagship as well, which is kind of strange given that it's not a brand new device.

That's the worry now, that the GS3 is in the sights. The Android Police article seems to think this could finally bring Google and Apple head to head.

I hope you guys get it before it goes down
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] BtGrave:
Seeing as Apple has already tried to get an injunction bundled alongside the Gnex ruling, I wouldn't be surprised at all if they tried again. TBH this news was the final straw that got me to preorder the GS3 ASAP. It'll be very interesting to see how Google moves on this.

Insert CNET article here: ("Apple wants to keep Samsung's Galaxy S3 out of U.S." by Josh Lowensohn) Can't post links yet..
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Neverendingxsin:
Apple could try and get something temporary against the S3, but anything that verizon, tmobile, sprint, att, etc has right now they are allowed to sell. And believe me verizon is probably just sitting on there's right now, so i would assume anybody with the July 9th ship date will be getting theres.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] blackguy101:
I hope this is true but i guess im also thinking like how much damage could apple possibly do to this phone seeing how its to be released in 9 days. Also didnt the judge already say that the court date for the gs3 isnt due until late july?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] dcaplinger76:
Sure am glad I get to pick up mine at Sprint tomorrow morning. Hope for everyones sake a ban doesn't happen.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jnadke:
I'm on vacation until Friday. I wanted to wait until I got back so it doesn't sit by my door, but now I think I'm gonna call Telesales on Sunday morning and get one shipped ASAP.

Debating 16 or 32. Want 32, but might do 16 in case there's a ban and they can't get any more 32's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeklipse:
I just flashed a Jellybean ROM and everything's fine. It's just that the Weather Card in Google Now has my location wrong. It's incorrectly displaying my location in Washington, D.C. (I live somewhere in Indonesia)

I thought it was because my location in Maps wasn't updated, but the problem still persisted after I got an accurate GPS lock. I searched through the Google Now settings, Android settings and Map settings, cleared my Maps and Google caches and Google Now is still convinced I'm in Washington. I'm stumped.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TjPhysicist:
i have no idea why this error shows up, and nor does anyone else seem to.

There is an option under "privacy and accounts" called "search on google.com" if that is checked it will search on google.com the big difference being, if you ask stuff like "who is the prime minister of japan" you will get a card with a pretty picture in it.

If you turn that OFF, you will search your local google domain, and weather would show up as whatever place you are in...but the cards dont have pretty pics anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Have you tried setting the settings to (US) English?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeklipse:
Tried both options, but it's showing me Washington weather. Quite a buzz kill, really, being second class citizens to Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeklipse:
They're the default settings, so yes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
I don't see see that option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TjPhysicist:
it seems there are certain "lleaks" that lack all the options etc. Right now i am using the stock rom linked in the thread with the bigxie (sp?) leak. It also works with both v1 and v2 of the leak in that thread..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Klathmon:
its because of the "Beta" nature of the app. Its only meant for use inside the US, so when its used outside it gives 'strange' results.

Ive heard that changing your locale to the correct one in the app will fix the weather, but it breaks the card system, so all you get is voice Google search.

Overall, you will have to wait until it is fully released for any hope of it working outside of the US.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kazprotos:
I'm also getting Washington DC weather when I ask. It seems damn hot there at the moment haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ellimistx99:
I was too for awhile... but it's back to normal now. At first I thought it was because I installed the market enabler.. but I turned that off and everything is back to normal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ellimistx99:
Oh nevermind now I too am getting D.C. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeklipse:
It's weird when I use the Google weather service in other apps, it shows me the correct location, but can't do it with their own.

But, yes, it may be the fact that it's a beta app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
It should work while keeping the default language (us English). And change the local domain search in Google - search - second last option.

With it checked:

Unchecked:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tylose:
This is not a solution.

Like they have said, this results in "cards without images". Without the images cards look terribly ugly.

So we are in a trade-off between "Beautiful Google Now" vs "Location-aware Google Now". We want to have both.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wchatam:
I'm also having a problem with Google Now using the incorrect location for weather results. I live in Madison, AL but the weather card always shows results for Madison, WI. If I tap on the card, it takes me to a Google search for "weather Madison", which assumes Wisconsin.

It appears that the Google Now weather card is getting my location as "Madison" but is losing the state. I'm curious if this is a problem for people living in other same-name cities, such as Columbus or Greenville, where a city with the same name exists in a different state.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kukamunga:
Similar. I live in Vancouver, WA and it's reporting my location as Vancouver, BC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
this really is the answer ...

> go to google now

> settings

> privacy and accounts

> make sure "search on google.com" is unchecked

also on that same page make sure "location & google search" is checked
