Hi,

I just rooted last night for the first time using one of the toolkits found on XDA. Flashed AOKP JB Rom on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Everything is working fine aside from 2 things.

1) my camera app is missing. I checked through some posts and it said that the gallery maybe isn't enabled. From what I can tell it is. A few albums have come up after I flashed. How would I go about getting the camera app back on there?

2) my google maps app asked for me to enable location source in system settings. from what I can tell, everything is enabled and still nothing works. A few posts I keep seeing refers to this problem being on the Nook Tablet.

If anyone can help me out, that'd be great. As you can tell, I'm incredibly noobish. These are the only 2 things that don't work (as far as I can tell) and figures, its the 2 apps that I need the most since I'm in sales and I need maps to work and camera for products.

Thanks in advance.

Posting this in your devices Q&A forum would probably get better device specific answers. Also, give this new user guide a read if you get a chance.

You could just get a camera app from the play store, or search for an apk online.

Is data turned on on your device? I've noticed that every time I flash a new ROM I have to set that up every time.

I have tried to restore some Nandroid Backups that I made via Clock Work mod. I get an error

Checking MD5 Sums...

MD5 Mismatch!

Why does it not work? I had copied it to my PC then back to my phones internal SDCARD. I did rename the Directory. Are these things not allowed?

I decided to see if I can bring back 1 I never touched. I made a backup then restored it and it worked so Clock work mod seems to be fine but perhaps its because I changed to folder path?

No clue perhaps someone can educate me on Nandroid backups do's and don'ts. Please note I have the 5X version of CWM.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Placed the files exactly as they were backed up and it worked. No renaming of directories and no placing in another folder. Apparently this is all taken into account with Nandroid backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martialaw:
Hi everybody,

I heard some rumors about the Nexus listed as EOL in various big electronic shops in Germany.

In addition to that, lots of european webshops stopped selling the Nexus after a nasty rise in selling price for the last weeks.

Can anyone comment on that with reliable informations?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
the internet told me the phone was at EOL 1 year ago!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matthewr87:
My carrier in Canada dropped the Nexus 3 months after first putting it on sale. Even Samsung has admitted in one of the patent trials with Apple that Nexus sales have been "insignificant". The Nexus has been dead as a consumer product for at least 6 months. However, that doesn't mean it is a bad phone. It just means that all the sheeple swayed by CPU cores and megapixels quickly move on to the newest and "best" thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
EOL means that a certain carrier or OEM will stop giving updates. Since the updates come directly from Google, only Google can determine the EOL, not some shop in Germany or a Canadian carrier. Keep in mind, the Nexus S has received its jellybean update, so I don't think EOL will come anytime soon for the Gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raze599:
All major stores in the UK have stopped selling it and haven't had it for about 7 months.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thebobp:
I suspect it'll get at least the next update (4.2? 5.0?) If google gets their act together, possibly even more - it's not like the hardware is too limited.

And, of course, xda end of life would be at least a year after that, if not more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
^ Yep. It will be a looong time before the software is too much for the hardware..if ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonathanBarca10:
all you gotta do is look at the Nexus S. Still kicking, and strongly. And the Galaxy Nexus is a stronger device hardware-wise.

no EOL in sight!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Yes OP it has been EOL-ed in Malaysia. However, like everyone mentioned, nothing to worry about flash yakju or a custom rom and you will never worry about EOL. Unless if you want to buy another galaxy nexus. Then the best time to buy is now before they go out of sale if they haven't already. Or wait for the next nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
It's a nexus....

end of life is when you break it, lose it or wear it out from so much use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
Out of Stock has nothing to do with End of Life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zeinzu:
Uh... EOL means the device is no longer manufactured, which will usually follow with less to no software support. The Galaxy Nexus won't be EOL anywhere for quite, quite some time.

Sent from my Stock AOSP Android 4.1.1 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hannes The Hun:
educate yourself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-of-life_(product)

granted, the definition is not carved in stone, but as for the Galaxy Nexus I guess we're nearing EOS after the price drops and massive sales in the states and elsewhere. nothing to worry about, Apple does the same with "discontinued" hardware still piling up in their warehouses such as the iPad 2 or iPhone 4S as soon as a successor device is on the horizon. and with the GNex it seems we're in for quite a selection of successor devices before year's end so it's just natural that Google and Samsung stopped production probably some months ago and cleared their warehouses over the last 2 months.

remember, in August 2012 the Nexus S (introduced in December 2010) got upgraded to 4.1.1 JB. I'd guess the GNex will get current firmware versions from Google well into 2014. Keep calm and carry on, guys. It's a Nexus after all ^^

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrisgriner:
This post seems awfully random...

I guess just as much as mine...

Even if the Nexus reaches EOL, it was a pretty decent phone and will have community support for a good while. My ONLY complaint about my Nexus is the USB storage transfer fiasco. I understand technically what its doing, and I understand why they did what they did. That don't make me any happier though. I've found newer ways to transfer files from my pc or other devices to my Nexus, I just wish the ease of USB Mass Storage was there...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gorjess:
EOL for mainstream consumer and hipsters i guess..

No one mentioned HTC HD2?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
No such thing as eol for a Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Nexus One is the closest thing to it.

But stores not selling it is not the same as EOL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tanner4137:
Nexus One still has people making ICS builds. If the Galaxy Nexus is anything like it, we'll keep getting ROMs for quite a while! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Euzhan:
True we can sleep quiet :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martialaw:
Point is, I DONT own a Nexus, I planned to buy it in a few months when prices dropped a bit more, below 300€.

Now I am not so sure I still can get one if they stopped manufacturing it.

Maybe I misunderstood something and don't have to worry at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Wait, so the Nexus is going to stop being manufactured, just like in HK? Can I still import it a week later?

(oops, am I a bit too sensitive?)

Blazing on my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alangrig:
These just are rumors. I've bought mine recently which is from July 2012 Production batch and recently observed one more from August 2012 production batch. So don't worry there are plenty of gnexy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
Cool! My phone might actually go up in value now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
They'll probably still be made right up until the new one goes into production.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sumeshpremraj:
GNex and 4.4 - EOL?

Considering that Google dropped Nexus S support at 4.3, I'm guessing official support will be dropped for GNex on 4.4. That isn't an issue for me as I've run custom ROMs on my devices from day 1.

But how much longer can we expect custom ROMs and development on GNex? I'm guessing most devs have moved on to Nexus 4, and soon Nexus 5, so what hopes do we have for our device?

I'm a minimalist user, mostly texts, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter and a lot of reading. I'm guessing I won't need to upgrade any time soon based on that usage, but when will we start seeing the OS itself push the limits of the hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andQlimax:
Nexus S stopped at 4.1

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus con Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sumeshpremraj:
My fault! I used custom ROMs on my Nexus S upto 4.2, and got confused about that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frankiewmrwx:
yes, it did not produce anymore. but you will find more tablet pc will better than nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lesp4ul:
For older devices, wait for kit kat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leyvatron:
I'm selling my Verizon gnex is anybody is interested.

I think the Verizon gnex is done. 4.3 never showed up with a Verizon radio fix. Yes we do have 4.3 Roms but the radios are far from perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
Well seeing how Verizon hasn't released 4.3 why would u expect radio fixes from a ported ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wdustin1:
Lol I think he was just pointing that out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] md1008:
There a lots of 4.3 ROMs on the NS, don't run great at all. The NS was supported long after it should have and I definitely predict the same is the same for gnex. And yes people move on many people don't, many also keep their old phones as well after updating. If the rumors are true about kitkat Being less of memory hogs who knows.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atsfrnd:
Totally agree, i had my Gnex for more than a year now and I'm glad it got what is deserves..

Even though there's battlescar everywhere, choppy USB port, slighty deteriorating battery, it gets better and faster on every update..

It's the only phone i still enjoy after a year is usage, i'm not planning to replace it, not even with the nexus 5..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drzplaya1121:
The only thing the GNex lacks in my opinion is LTE (on GSM). If it had LTE i wouldn't even bother upgrading. It's the same reason i skipped the Nexus 4.

So as of right now i will be leaving the GNex but to say EOL. Definitely not. This phone still has a few updates left in it before it no longer keeps up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
I think kitkat 4.4 will be our last official update on the galaxy nexus, I'm almost certain of it, android 5 will most likely require better hardware to run smoothly, you can't tell me you never had lag before on gnex an the battery performance isn't that great, video playback is choppy with higher quality video.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
The Samsung Galaxy S can run perfectly a 4.3 ROM, i'd say the NP would get 4.4 update and that could be final update & hope that the google optimizes the android at last ;) !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
How is kitkat for older devices if it launching with nexus 5

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ----------

Nexus 5 should have triple the performance of the gnex from the spec sheet I read, it won't be cheap like the nexus 4, their saying it will be priced as a high end phone an kitkat will show between October 15-29th sometime along with the new nexus, the n4 was priced as a mid range phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lesp4ul:
N5 sure will launches with 4.4, but I meant the OS itself, Kit Kat, referring to several Google's web annoucements, it say 4.4 is made for everyone, it has a major improvement in codes, make it lighter, lower ram usage, clean, more fluid (project butter), and more battery life. UI updates from 4.0, also better compatibilties with older devices, to eliminate (or lowering) fragmentations. So, older / low end devices with 512MB of ram will have a better chance for getting the latest available updates (OS, apps, supports, etc), Or simple words, "To make everybody happy"

Google also give a hint about what kit kat will gonna looks like via your apps, if you recently updated you google apps, you will see some changes, like youtube 5, gmail 4.6, google mobile search, g+, hangouts, etc.

http://www.android.com/kitkat/index.html

http://kitkat.com/

http://www.techradar.com/news/phone...kitkat-release-date-news-and-features-1177910

Oh yeah, Google also encourages it's partners to update their olders phones. For example, Samsung:

http://www.efytimes.com/e1/fullnews.asp?edid=116471

Sony also annouced:

1. Xperia Z family: Z original, ZR, ZL, Z Ultra and Z1 Honami

2. Xperia tablet S and tablet Z

3. Xperia mid-range phones: Xperia M, C, SP, L, S, SL, U and many more

Sony mobile devices are commonly equipped with 512 MB of RAM and a single-core Qualcomm processor.

LG and HTC still unclear about their older phones. And..... Nexus devices them self? Newer nexus line will get it first, but our Nexus will get it also I am pretty confident :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yotvb531:
Hopefully kitkat will be nice

Hopefully it will be a lighter OS to run. Even on my toroplus, it often gets bogged down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matteventu:
And now at the presentation Google shock all os us declaring that Android KitKat/KLP is only for Nexus 7 and up :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Coldblackice:
Any update on KitKat release window?

(I'm also wondering who paid who -- Google paying Nestle, or Nestle paying Google :) )
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cupfulloflol:
No one is getting paid, it is a mutual partnership. Both get "free" advertisement from one another.

About the release, it could be anytime really. If it rolls out with the Nexus 5, October or November would likely be when the Nexus 5 gets released.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Coldblackice:
Gotcha. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
End of life means they will no longer stock and sell it. It has nothing to do with updates when posted by a retailer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drzplaya1121:
I agree I've had several times where it lags but what Android phone doesn't? Even the newer ones which are being released now. I can deal with the lag and the poor battery on account I just charge my phone at the office but my plan over at T-Mobile covers LTE and so I want LTE if i'm going to be paying for it

I use a Huawei E589 LTE mobile wifi hotshot to get 4G on both my N7 wifi and gnex. Helps me save a lot of battery also.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonev1986:
only rumors so far

Nexus 4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] md1008:
I personally believe the gnex will get the official update but since the majority of us flash ROMs I can guarantee we will get 4.4 ROMs. Hell the Nexus S got 4.3 ROMs right away. I had 4.3 running on my Nexus before my Mom got the ota update on her N⁴. Pretty impressive if you ask me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
My belief on tuna getting 4.4 official became a little weaker when the GNU/Linux community got the news about 3.0.x stable tree being marked with EOL tag, coming to an end in the next few weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sdobron:
Maybe we'll get a kernel update with 4.4...I find it hard to believe that 4.4 won't be seen in an official build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Yeah, I mean, we did see a kernel bump with JWR66V, so [official 4.4] can happen.

What I find hard to believe is Google going Redhat style (my guess is that they could), supporting their own kernel branch, totally independent of the Linux mainline.

It seems their attitude is the opposite, Google commits to Linux kernel and accounts for one of the top spots in sheer commit numbers, which can mean they want to go latest stable branch in the future.This might be good or bad for us.

The way I see it, manta (N10) released with 3.4.x branch, which will continue to be a LTS branch. Only 3.0.xx is going to get killed.

That said, there's a big chance they already have it working on 3.0.9x. So, IMO, either we get bumped to 3.4.xx branch, or 4.4 is going to be our last official update..

The binaries are a whole different subject, I think.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nomancoolboy:
Good news!

Galaxy nexus will get the official 4.4 !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
You know you can edit the android version an make it say 4.4 if you want, if they really had 4.4 they would show more than just that screenshot, there's a reason the build version at bottom is blanked out because its a fake an would just show the current build version instead of the actual 4.4 build version that they obviously don't know yet.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

4.4 is only a minor upgrade hence 4.4 an not 5 so why wouldnt the gnex get it, Google just named it kitkat in light of the new nexus coming an for media an advertising sake to rival apples new iOS 7 update, it should have just been called jellybean 4.4, its no iOS 6-7 but I guess its something, I think I skip the nexus 5 an wait for nexus 6 when the android os is fully revamped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nomancoolboy:
Yes .i know that we can edit the build.prop and even make it ios v7 :D

But this one was from phonearena so i thought and i hope it would be true
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
Its OK buddy, by google not releasing a major release like android 5 an sticking with 4.4 they just gave us a good reason to stay on our gnex for another year instead of forcing us to upgrade our phones.I think I just look forward to getting a new PlayStation 4 this year instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nomancoolboy:
Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itasoulas:
Galaxy Nexus may have reached the "End Of Life" commercially but for me is still my beloved phone and will continue for at least another year. I didn't see the point of upgrading to Nexus 4 for various reasons (not that this isn't a great phone as well) but I did buy the new Nexus 7 tablet as I didn't own one and also I wanted to have the latest from Google, which by the way is awesome. So even if Galaxy Nexus - a 2 years old phone - won't get official updates any more, Android 4.3 is still a great firmware as the phone's last operating system.

Installed SlimROM 4.3, and it is easily the smoothest ROM I've ever used among 4-4.3. Slows down only during heavy multitasking.

Hi !

I'm looking for Windows Mobile Device Center.

I am using an HTC HD2 and when I want to repartition magldr, I'm stuck with an usb init failed (736). I looked into the forums and it seems to have something to do with Active Sync and/or Windows Mobile Device Center.

So I tried to download it from Microsoft and I can't because the validation tool (Windows genuine) is too old and I have no other solution to get my download...

Does someone can help me to find this software ?

Before you wait all that time, try this. Hold the volume up button and the power button at the same time. The phone will vibrate once, keep holding until it vibrates 3 more times. Now you should be able to try flashing again. Worked for me.

Yea same here as I could not get mine to do anything. I saw in another thread on this someone said once you get the Sony loop to do a force reset (1 buzz) and as soon as it buzz's hold volume down. You should see the green light flash and should then be able to connect it in flash mode again. Adds up with what I did and its very strange there is so much difference from device to device on a shared issue.
