[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Huh and is that why Gnex costed 800bucks fully unlocked when it first came out? Google might not want the money, but Samsung (or whatever manufacturer that makes the next Nexus) will definitely want it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spiritcrusher33:
exactly just get it. and live contract free for awhile. and u will never go back to contracts.. so enjoy paying 30 bucks a month. sure i lose alittle. but for me its worth it.. plus give me the extra cash to save up for another new phone down the road or a nexus 7 tab. etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgbkny:
@kyokeun1234:

The reason why the GNex cost so much when it came out is because it was not available in Canada/USA for a few months. The hefty price tag (I paid $720 for mine) was due to the fact that it had to be imported by electronics retailers and sold as a grey market item. When the unlocked GSM version became available through the Google PLay Store, it cost $399.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
yes but that was after a few months. And I do agree with you the next nexus not being 800 bucks but it will still be expensive. Like 600 to 700 possibly

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mssam:
I say get it, especially if the price is right. The s3? Meh...it's a nice phone, but the gnex is where the party is...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
The GN never cost 800 USD. Not sure where you got that number from. The reason the GN wasn't sold by Google originally is they didn't have their Play Store system in place. I would be shocked if they don't sell the next Nexus device(s) at $500 or less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1stx2:
Get the Gnex. You won't be disappointed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ieatnoobs:
Same with the others. You won't be disappointed. I bought a One X and being tied to carrier regulations is purely insane. Getting updates fast is really awesome too. Just do it. At $349 you can't go wrong with an unlocked phone.

DO IT.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ntavelis:
The rule in buying technology says "you should buy what you need right now". That's because you won't buy a thing if you are thinking what is coming up. Always something comes up in technology.

Galaxy Nexus is a beauty!

So buy it.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ExploreMN:
I just ordered mine. I switched from Sprint to Walmart's Family Mobile (basically T-Mobile subsidized by Walmart) and with the money I'm saving, the phone is paid for in 1 year. Phone cost $385 with shipping and tax, but I'm saving nearly $35 a month and get unlimited everything vs unlimited text, data, and 1000 voice minutes. Oh...and I get a signal at home now. LOL

Now if I sell my Evo 3D, that closes the gap even more.

This cool story brought to you by a bro...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
This phone is definitely worth it, as it's a Nexus phone, it'll be in the loop for years to come.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] filmusikat:
Buy it buy it!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zba78:
While I must admit this is probably not the most impartial place to ask about a Galaxy Nexus I have to agree with others that it's definitely worth the punt.

Bought mine about 2 weeks ago for just under £300 and haven't regretted it since. Flashed to yakjuk a few hours after buying, it auto updated to Jelly Bean and its been buttery smooth ever since (sorry couldn't resist :p ).

And one would have to assume the device the will still be supported by the latest android updates for a good while
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
The gsm one then yes, if going in contract wait a little bit some new nexus might be out in a couple of months
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Henrock11:
Get it..I have the sprint version now and just ordered the GSM version from the Google play store yesterday. I'll probably be using the T-Mobile monthly 4g plan with 100 minutes, unlimited text and 5gb's of 4g speeds for $30.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
If T-Mobile is good in your area, you will be more than pleased. One bar of T-Mobile in hspa is like full bars on sprint 3g and wimax is on par with tmobiles hspa

Sold my GS2 which I loved on eBay. Bought a GSM Nexus. Never thought I'd enjoy a phone more than my rooted GS2.

My stock 4.1.1 google ota nexus > my gs2 (my opinion ).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
Most likely later this year or early next year, Google will be selling more than one "Nexus" flagship phone. So Samsung isn't the only option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] finbaar:
My GNex is coming today (well it had better come as I am sick after using a TOCCO BLOODY LITE for the last 3 days). I should have got one in April but was swayed by the vast expanse of screen on the GNote. Now as much as I liked the GNote I had to finally admit that it was just too big for the way I carry a phone. For me the sweet spot is the HOX/S3/GNex size. Also I have spent many a happy hour flashing my different phones in a vain attempt to make them like a Nexus class device and whilst I really have appreciated all the devs hard work there were always issues.

So Friday Mrs finbaar was *****ing about her SE Arc and said was there a phone I wanted and she would have the GNote (something she has always coveted but until that point was adamant that she would not have another hand-me-down from me). Well given the choice of every phone out there what was I to do? GNex of course. And I am making a pledge to only get Nexus class in the future unless this AOSP experiment that Andy Ruben has kicked off with the Xperia S bears fruit with other devices. Wouldn’t it be a great world where you could buy an officially supported AOSP S3 or HOX or whatever. However as all these OEMs want to Amazonify things by offering there own “eco system” I can’t see it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sgq:
Got my first Android phone (Galaxy Nexus) a week ago. No regrets on this one. I thought of waiting for the next one, but it doesn't make sense when the current one is only $350 from the Play Store.

Now, I got a new phone which will get updates (no waiting games) and no contract. Couldn't be happier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.m0x:
I bought an sgs3 and sold my gnex. I regret it deeply. I have yet to do anything on my sgs3 which the gnex can't handle. Most of the features of the sgs3 are just gimmicky crap baked into the software.

In fact I'm thinking about selling the sgs3 and getting another gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nuclearmonkeyuk:
Im also selling my GNote to get a Nexus.. Picked an unwanted upgrade unlocked on ebay with official cardock and charger and 2 cases for £250.. The GNote is currently at £275 with over a day to go :) bonus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tripjnj:
If you don't mind tinkering your phone, get the Nexus and load up a Jelly Bean ROM. I got my Nexus in January and still don't think any phone compares!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sacthegreat:
just go for it!! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.m0x:
Performance wise, just because its not the fastest on the market doesn't make it slow. Gnex still performance plenty good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nattychris:
The only phone is consider waiting for is the next nexus. But the current nexus will still be relevant for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kcls:
I was about to buy the GNex but I didn't because I realized when the new nexus, or nexii come out there will be q mad rush if people selling their current nexii for cheap. Plus Google might drop the price of the GNex.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ExploreMN:
There is...honestly...ALWAYS something better on the horizon. Buy what you want that can do what you want when you can and then tell yourself over and over you don't need to buy the next best thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cubsfan86:
Do it. I got mine recently for $250 (CDMA) and was able to get $150 for my constant headache of a device, the Thunderbolt. Developer support should keep this thing going for awhile, I get to keep unlimited data without renewing my contract (for the time being), and it will keep things interesting until I switch carriers (hopefully Republic Wireless expands and improves, but may go to a cheaper prepaid alternative eventually)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PoisonWolf:
Definitely wait. Don't give it to instant gratification and remember that this forum is biased because duh, you're in this phone's forum.

Probably just a month or two more now before Google unveils the next Nexii line and just a month after for a release. At least see what the next line will look like. If they're all incremental upgrades....then just get the Galaxy Nexus.

One thing you want to look out for is that Google should be moving to either 1.5 GB or 2 GB of RAM. If they stick to 1gb, just get the Galaxy Nexus. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
I have the gs3 and can't be any happier! Getting gn tomorrow because someone is selling it for 150 usd! Might use it as a secondary or for my flashing crack habit!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kcls:
I WILL buy the GNex, but I am just going to wait until the new nexus comes out so I can get the GNex for cheap. I know something new is always around the corner. That's why I always go prepaid XD

Definitely get it. I mean we don't even have release dates for the new ones yet so you could be waiting. Besides the phone is dirt cheap
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sramedani:
The newest nexus will come in about 4 months and it will be very basic hardware updates nothing a little tweaking on the current one can't fix, just get it now, nexuses typically stays in the loop for three years so you will be fine for the most part

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Empty Hand:
You can get great deals on the gnex now. Wait if you want the latest and greatest, but you'll pay over twice as much. The gnex is a great phone, and there are already great roms and mods. A new nexus will take some time before developers have roms and mods. Just some things to consider.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JC0406:
Lol what carrier regulations?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Just go for it and its only350 dollars for you americans
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neuroval:
Hell, you could get an excellent condition used Nexus for pretty cheap. I bought my Sprint GN for 190...and sold my E4GT for 220...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
Apple is hellbent on having this phone banned, I'd get one while the gettin's good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pepper67:
Im in Toronto Canada and the nexus isnt being sold on the google website right now and used ones are mostly going for at least 300.

What are these great deals everyone seems to be talking about? Saving a measly 50 bucks for a used one doesnt seem like much of a bargain. Maybe its just my area...

Id be all over one in the 200-250 range.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ianflo:
you could absolutely find a used gnex for a real nice 'come in' price that wouldnt be a total kick to your wallet if you decide to upgrade to a new nexus before the years end. plus no contract to worry about.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:
Just buy it bro. I really do hope that only one Nexus comes out this year.. Don't need 148104801429 x variations as it would be a major pain in the ass. Buy it and if the next Nexus is priced reasonbly, sell the old one (or keep it) and get the new version when it hits :good:.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] appletechsupport:
What I often see:

Hard working dev makes app > fc or bug for some user > user doesn't know how to report bugs so gives 1 star rating in market to describe bug

I feel particularly bad for devs of free apps, who should be thanked not criticized. Some of them post "please email me with bugs..." but more instructions and a way for others to see the bugs would be great.

I came across a few posts with excellent instructions. Not saying they're the right approach for all apps, but a link with the dev's instructions like this would be a big improvement and would allow better feedback to the dev. Also could show text of bugs so others can see what specific devices might not be compatible.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
Well Google have started to roll out letting developers reply to user comments so they will be able to ask users that give low ratings and need help to submit a bug report etc.

I often find this the case that users that dont get something working right away (which for new users can very easily happen with my Linux on Android app) they will just give a 1 start rating instead of contacting me and asking for help...granted it seems to be getting better but still happens far to much
[General Questions and Answers] l0rdraiden:
Hello, I'm trying to use my old smartphone (android) as a seedbox.

The problem is that my phone does not support CIFS so I can not mount network drives on the phone (it does not support a SD big enough for the purpose). The HDD (500gb) is connected directly to my router so I can access to it by SAMBA but I can't mount it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_Livebox

So, anybody knows what can I do to fix this, or if there is any torrent client with samba support?

Then you didn't flash it. Check the log created in the Universal Flasher folder. Check to see that data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk or com.android.vending-2.apk was morphed. If you only flashed Phonesky.apk in the system folder then it will obviously not work because that is the original and 3.8.16 is an update and system apps are updated in the data folder.

So hopefully after all this messing around with getting a new phone I'll finally manage to get the galaxy s2 on Wednesday. Almost ordered a Galaxy Nexus a few weeks back but just as I was about to they ran out and didn't order more (not very popular here apparently). So after that I decided to go for the s2 which I've always wanted. Ideally I'd go for One S but don't feel like spending 170€ more for that!

Anyway I'd like to thank everyone on this forum for giving me a great experience with the wildfire despite it's weaknesses! Really hope to see a JB daily driver on the wildfire as well since it deserves it and I'm sure the great developers here can make it happen! :)

Also I'd like to apologize if I offended someone with my comments. I really don't mean to be offensive but for some reason i enjoy arguing and usually end up saying immature things. But I'm only 18 so maybe I am immature :D

Still going to be keeping the willy alive and probably going back to htc eventually too.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashscool:
I have been given an Xperia X10 from my friend which had a broken (shattered at the bottom) touch screen digitizer and a slightly damaged LCD screen (the LCD didn't work at all, just the backlight). We went to the Sony Ericsson showroom her in Bangalore, India and asked them the repair cost and to our dismay, they quoted 16,000Rs (~290$) to get it fixed.

We were not ready to spend that much on a 2 year old phone. So this time we decided to experiment with it and try our hand at fixing the phone ourselves.

I ordered the Touch screen Digitizer and LCD Display from an eBay Seller called easyworldwidetrading and they shipped my item in a few days. I immediately went online and searched for teardown videos on youtube and managed to get all the parts opened safely.

Once I put back all the parts, the LCD display started working and the phone powered on. BUT, once the phone fully powered on and came to the lock screen, the Touch didn't work.

I then removed and replaced only the touch with the old shattered one (luckily the screen guard that it had was holding the shattered screen in place) and to my surprise, it worked.

I then painstakingly returned the new touch screen digitizer to the company in Hong Kong and they sent me a replacement in a few weeks. I checked today with the new touch screen (which they assured to me was tested for defects) and again, to my disappointment, is still not working on my phone.

Now, my friend's phone is an Xperia X10 not an X10i or X10a which is White in colour. The touch screen digitizer I had ordered is in Black. The codes on the data strip of the digitizers(The old white one and the new black one) are different.

Would there be any tweak in the software to recognize a different touch screen from the one that is provided by the manufacturer..?

Can someone help me out by telling me why the touch screen does not work(even though its a brand new original Sony Ericsson touch screen digitizer) and how my old touch screen digitizer is working though its shattered.

Full color AOKP icons for our beloved Nexus S and Nexus S 4G.

I am working on a universal flashable zip but until then we have a metamorph zip brought to you by redwiz666! Go hit 'thanks' on his posts! DO IT NOW

See third post for tutorial!! - uses old method but still works

1. Download zip

2. Get Metamorph app

3. Apply zip in Metamorph

4. Reboot

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AlphaEchoViktorSierra:
Tutorial

Firstly you must be on a ROM that uses the lockscreen weather. This does not add it, it only changes the icons!

I will be doing this tutorial on Windows, I'm sure you can figure it out on a different OS really easily.

Required: 7-zip with context menus (haven't gotten it to behave perfectly with command line sadly)

1. Get your framework-res.apk from /system/framework/

2. Get attached 'res.zip' and unzip, you will have a folder named 'res'

3. Right click on framework-res.apk, then go to 7-zip in the context menu and then click 'Open Archive'

4. Drag and drop the res folder into the 7-zip window

Now you have your framework-res.apk which can be put into a flashable zip or pushed via adb. For an easy flashable zip, download one of the current mods from the first post that matches your phone, and then replace with your new framework-res.apk.
