[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moroninc:
I've been using The Gnex for a few months now, the only reason i bought it is because of the developer support and the sexy design (without the home buttons). Even if i knew the Gnex 2 would be out in the near future, it doesnt bother me as its still a great handset to buy at the current price. If battery is an issue there is a 2000Mah OEM battery from Samsung with back case that should do the trick.

All in all your not losing out even if you buy now as the Gnex 2 is only a rumor and nothing solid has been mentioned from Google or Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oscuras:
I will also buy it soon. I think that even if the new galaxy nexus comes out it will be more expensive than 350$. so, even if you wait, you will pay more money.

So in my opinion, if money isn't a problem for you, wait for the new nexus, but if it is, buy this one because this is a great phone for this price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maliceomalice:
Lag..? What lag..? There is no lag. Never heard them,never see them. Plus, i have 2 friends, each having one x and s3, and still this baby is the smoothest among em. Of course hardware wise, i lose big time, but for the liquidity, u can always count on this.

Plus the lagfix is really kind of a 50/50 working. And its mostly for cm10 based rom,which i dont find any lag at all(my opinion). If u got the S3, they still use cm10 based rom mostly,so,still need the lagfix one way or another, but with the gnex, there is pure aosp if u dont really like cm10.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nounce:
Well I bought it. Delivered this week :) can't wait to get rid of this HTC and get some of that raw Google in my hands.

I hope it's the version updated by Google and not Samsung or something else..

You'll see me a lot more on this forum from now on ;)

I second that. I'm a little late to the gnex game as well. But I got the vzw gnex off Amazon for a penny. I forgot how much I enjoy stock Android. The dev support is awesome. And the accessories are readily available. Enjoy your new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonb255:
Just purchased a galaxy nexus really needed to upgrade my nexus s couldn't trust all the new nexus rumors and $350 is a great price
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeyWheels:
My employer is requiring me to get a phone so I don't have the option of waiting on the new Gnex. I was considering S3 and the Evo 4g lte but the Gnex kept pulling me back. There is just something about it. I love the look and feel as well as the developer support. Luckily I live in an area that has LTE and my employer pays the majority of my monthly bill.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TRusselo:
let me just answer the question posted in the title of the thread...

Q: Is it smart to buy the galaxy nexus now?

A: It is smart to buy anything if it was based on personal research cross referenced with your personal needs and finances.

ie: if it has the features you want and/or need, at a price you can afford, do what makes sense.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
No. i'd wait for next nexus device. Even if it's 9 months from now.. who knows how many gigs it's gonna have....jeez could have 8 cores and teleport you to Monte Carlo with Google wallet fully loaded and ready for the craps table!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nounce:
Lol nice. Well i bought it and couldnt be happier. Smartphones are as bad as computers When it comes to New features and hardware updates. Every 6 months the thing u bought has become 'Old' the price for the Nexus Phone are low for what u get wich is why i bought it and didnt wait. If i had a decent device before i could've waited But my sensation xl had loading times that were too long for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Orilin:
Nice! I wondered the same. Probably I will buy too!

I think it would be okay if you get a good price. The changes in the Galaxy S3 aren't enough for me to want to upgrade my Galaxy Nexus to the S3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
I love my gnex and personally i don't think the s3 is better at all. Quad core..big deal, is not a nexus.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LibertyMonger:
Here is a question I am struggling with, I have the GNex, but just got a free HTC One S brand new in the box, should get it Wednesday. Actually I got 4 of them, one for me, one for my mom, one for my sister and one for my Niece. I am debating on whether I should keep them all since i got such a great deal on them. I had the Nexus S for my last phone and gave my sister one as well, when I got my Gnex I gave my Nexus S to my niece. They both still LOVE their Nexus S and do not want to sell them. So now they have new HTC One S phones unopened and I am debating on whether I should sell them to get them the GNex or just keep them since they aren't into flashing like me. well I do flash new ROM's and pretty hot pink themes for my niece and she could not do without that now lol. And then I can't decide what I want to do with my HTC One S. It has the bootloader locked I guess and development looks ok but not nearly what we have. It is supposed to be getting Jellybean but hard to say when,. Not so sure about Sense Android either and If I flash an AOSP ROM on it it takes away all the great camera features I think. What would you do? Opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Ps.. I think i will keep the one for my mom, and play with hers for a bit before I take mine out of the box lol. The HTC One S seems to be getting old now and I am fearing i made a bad decision cause CBW will be getting new phones soon I am sure. Wish I knew what their next good phone will be!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
Sell. Get gnex. I'm biased tho.

*Shaolin Shadowboxing *
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LibertyMonger:
The people over in the HTC One S threads are big-time biased I think they wish they had a GNex but don't so they prop their phone up like it's the best just to salvage their faith in it or something lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] F_T_B:
The One S is fast, faster than the Galaxy Nexus but it has a smaller display and lower resolution. The camera is better, but unless you're going to unlock it you're probably going to dislike Sense and stick another AOSP-based ROM on it... Think about the smaller display first.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nounce:
Wel rumours go the next nexus, nexus 5 is a quad core (1.5 ghz) 2gig ram, 12mp camera 5inch HTC device. Looks like i bought too soon, tho i Don't like HTC.

Gnex is the best

Sold my iPhone 4s Got Galaxy s3(after 2 days sold it) then got a

Galaxy Nexus

:fingers-crossed: i was reading the past posts from this thread i was like what? lag? hell no :eek: what is recall

is galaxy s3 lags and chops on scrolling not the nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] myztkl-kev:
everyones saying go with it, and i would too but honestly the s3 is superior, id just wait it out and get one of those. people are saying the changes arent good enough, well i love my nex, and it has a 1.2ghz dual core with a gb of ram, the s3 has a 1.4ghz (i think) quad core and 2gb of ram. definately the better choice i think. but its up to you man, the nexus is a great phone too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atomix86:
I have been waiting an absolute age to get this phone but price was the biggest issue, however recently I managed to find a deal in store where they are selling them off me at £199 (better still was given £50 off for trading in my Desire Z), and I can honestly say I've never been happier with a phone before. Sure, they may be selling cheap now as a new Nexus is on the cards (or because the S3 is "all the rage" at the moment) but it doesn't faze me at all; i believe this phone will be able to run many upcoming versions of Android for a while and the community is very strong.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lesicnik1:
Actually, its either dual core with 2GB of RAM (US version) or a quad core with 1 GB (international version)

Unless you get the Korean version that is.

Well Europe Germany has the S3 quad core 2 GB RAM lte version now too. Even in more colors like red and a few more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Surray:
I'm also considering getting a galaxy nexus as an upgrade from my HD2.

I can get it for free on a 2 year 17€ contract which seems like a really good deal. SIII is about 250€ with that.

Even if I do wait on the next nexus device it'll probably also cost me at least 250€ unless I go on a 40€ contract or something...

I've the Nexus now for 3 moths and it's amazing. A friend has the S3 an he prefers the Nexus cause the Galaxy Nexushas no laggs. It's the best phone I ever had!! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
^ Yea that touchwiz on the S3 is the best version yet but I just love how the Nexus is just so clean. You can add some of that touchwiz like stuff if you want to and that sure beats flashing some hack aosp wannabe port!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CodeNameNexus:
Even if a new model(s) come out next month, it is going to take a while before the development scene catches up to what we have now. You are better off getting a gNex now and getting the new version after the price drops next year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I think development will pick up pretty quick. usually does on the Nexus.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You didn't say your IMEI numbers didn't match until now. If you type *#06# into the dialer, does does the IMEI displayed on the screen match the IMEI on the label under your battery?

(do not post the actual IMEI number here; you do NOT want that information public)

If they match, and the carrier says it is blocked, then this is something you must discuss with the carrier. The block is on their side.

The Serial Number displaying as 00000000000 has no effect on the operation of your phone whatsoever. I have 4.0.4 installed, and my SN displays 00000000000, but the phone works perfectly fine.

If you're not rooted, and you still have warranty, then have Samsung do it. Every other way is risky, and won't always work.

EDIT: oops, I forgot - you said in post 1 you installed CM9. So you've already installed a custom ROM...

OK, so the option for warranty may not work for you, unless you're still within the warranty period, and you can flash back to stock and reset your binary counter. If not, then you can always try the GSII_Repair app by Helroz from the Play Store.

I can create the shortcut but it doesn't initiate anything when I press it. Can anyone confirm if they are having the same issue? If so, does anyone know how to fix this on the stock ROM?

Then remember to told us the hboot version shown on bootloader screen.

But i changed my phone for Samsung Galaxy S2 and i give my old phone for my girlfriend. She doesn't like CM7 and i though it will be more easier for her to get back the Stock rom than CM7.

I did a lot research on the web about this and i can't find anything good.

I find some threads...but with dead links.

Do someone can send me a LG P925g Stock rom that i can flash with CWM with a zip. ?

Or a Backup that i can use with CWM ( zip file )

I hope you could help me please...!!
