Looked up some pics of the phone and not a big fan of that red ring on the back camera. Everything else can be covered with a case. But that is just tacky to me lol.

Windows phones are useless. Apple devices make no sense whatsoever. Android is so much easier.

Ever since growing up with Macintosh computers in 80s and 90s and the desire to napalm the original iMac my mother purchased. I find Apple appalling in every way fathomable.

I would atleast wait to see how the Jellybean rom is for the hoxl.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Red is pretty signature for Verizon Droid phones. I'm guessing it will be removed on the AT&T version.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] miguellopez12:
I would wait. There are a lot of phones rumored to come. Like the Samsung s3 but with a smaller screen, HTC one x+, lumia 920(with amazing camera), a new nexus, and the note 2, as well as LG G phone with the new built in LCD screen. A lot of choices.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NeverToLate:
Lets hope so

That red looks tacky. Agreed.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stewie325:
I wanted to get this phone as a replacement to my Nokia N8.

Having been loyal to Nokia over the years, I'm used to absolutely excellent battery life, where I get a good 2 days of normal use, or easily get through 1 day of heavy use.

Would the Galaxy Nexus be a really bad step down ?

Can anyone suggest their average battery life when having:

25% screen brightness,

GPS/BT/NFC/etc off until needed.

Sync only for WhatsApp

Messaging 1-2 hours a day

Music 2-3 hours a day

Browsing 1 hour a day
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] newbcake:
I get 8-9 hours standard usage
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
If only 3G, you'll probably pull about 12 hours and a little under 3 hours screen on.

-Brought to you by Marino's Galaxy Nexus-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Murrzeak:
Mine's on WiFi all the time with all the syncs and stuff. A few calls and messages + mild browsing. Normally I get 14-16h. Maximum was 24h with the wifi turned off I guess. Not the best results, but bearable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
I get about 4 hours screen on time, and a full day no problem.

Just charge when you go to bed at night and youll be good to go
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zAlbee:
I usually get one and a half days of standby time (average 37 hours as reported by GSAM Battery Monitor). So I usually only charge every other day. However, my screen use (1-2 hours) is much less than most people on this forum. If I use my phone heavily with screen on >2 hours, then it lasts just one day.

1-2 hours screen on time.

Brightness: 11% indoors, auto outdoors

GPS/BT always on

40 mins/day streaming Pandora music over HSPA+ and BT with screen off

Wifi + Airplane mode always on at home, with Wifi High Performance Widget

VoIP (Sipdroid) connected whenever on wifi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyco2008:
It's comparable to the selection from any OEM, though 4G and Jelly Bean's Project Butter are the top offenders (alongside display, that's more a given, though.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegtfusion:
Install rasbean and franco/trinity. Your head will be blown with the awesome battery life. I wont say more, test it yourself.

Sent from my trasbeaned Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fire n mage:
These statements are invalid, people have reported great battery life with almost every combination out there. Secondly, OP you won't last more than.. Well could be 14 hours maybe 18, 14 especially assuming you use data to web browse. but it really depends on screen on time and, how spread out your usage is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skadebo:
It will be a step down.

You will never get 2 days of battery life under any useful circumstances.

Unless you neuter your phone, as I've mentioned in another thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giant22000:
In all honesty, the gsm/cdma versions need to be compared totally different. I've had both and can say the gsm version can easily get 3 hrs of screen on time without even trying and the cdma version (toro) struggles to get 2hrs. So, when somebody replies about battery life, they really need to specify which version of the gnex they have or you could specifically ask for maguro/toro/toroplus users.

BTW, the screen on times I'm specifying are not on wifi and are using HSPA+ for the Maguro and LTE for the Toro.

On Maguro (GSM Version), I routinely get 2 days out of my gnex with light/normal use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knawraz:
I have the GSM Galaxy Nexus and I keep my phone on Airplane Mode at home, work, & school (since all my calls & texts are made through google voice anyways) & data while I'm on the go. I mainly use Facebook, Google Voice, Groove IP, Instagram, Light Flow, Google Search (4.1), Google Maps, & music. Occasionally I game, watch movies, etc. Here's a typical day of use, 5 hours of screen time:

​
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aeoveu:
We don't have 3G where I live - but I have to charge my phone every night.

My usage is something like this: random surfing at work (read news and all), send quite a few texts (or Whatsapp messages), play music for almost 50 minutes straight... when I'm home, I'm left with 60 or 50%.

I do have a charger at the office though - but I don't always use it.

It depends on how strong your cell signal is; if you're in a spotty area, the battery drain will be higher. It also depends on the kernel you use (right now, I'm trying to find a decent kernel - not the stock one since I get random reboots on the stock kernel... my phone didn't have this problem before, oddly - even with Jelly bean on it... yeah, confusing... but I digress).

Anyway - it will last you a day easily. 3G? I think it'll last you a day there as well. It depends HOW you use your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stewie325:
Thanks for all the replies. As a reply to one poster, yes I am getting the GSM version as there is no LTE really in the UK. But it seems my battery concerns are true looking at most of your answers. I'll have to be really really careful in order to get two days use out of it. Probably best to spend a bit more on another phone. Perhaps the GS2, but that doesn't seem to be much better.. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
If the battery lasts you one day, you shouldn't be so concerned about it. Not like you can't charge it during night... Also with a little optimization, it can easily last you a day. If you are still concerned about your battery, get an extra battery or an extended battery. Also I had SG2 before and the battery is better than Gnex, but not enough to get it over Gnex.

Availability Thread​

This thread has been created to give everybody the opportunity to share availability information. I am aware we have ones for different countries, but its looking like we will have one for every nation soon. These will be closed and further opening of such thread will also be closed. I really dont like the segregation of different countries as they often turn out to be "exclusive" discussion threads. XDA is all about a international community so i really dont want this forum to go against that ethos.

So lets all share that international spirit:)

Please only discuss availability in this thread, we now have sticky threads for off topic, reviews etc. This has been done to pool information for all users, hopefully making it a better place for all. I hope this has cleared up any questions.

EDIT: Do not post about moderation issues, these should be handled by PM​
[Galaxy Note II General] vinaymonu25:
does that mean we can discuss pricing too ? or we have to discuss only about availability?

[Galaxy Note II General] gtalum:
If US Cellular is any guide, it will be more like $300-$400.
[Galaxy Note II General] Clark Joseph Kent:
sounds about right but for contract little less, myself having 3 lines due for upgrade this month and next month, the upgrade price offering from ATT will be nice and afforable IMHO :)
[Galaxy Note II General] MiguelHogue:
I'm for sure going the contract route... And lol Damn, you're lucky.. I'm not due for an upgrade until another year.. No experience with selling on ebay, guess I shall sell this galaxy s2 back to sprint and apply that towards the contract price

Better then nothing :eek:

Hello,

we the members of Xda have been facing a problem with opening a official Indian owners thread on the new opened galaxy note 2 forum..

The thread has been created 3 times in past 2 days and have been closed by the newly assigned mods in the forum..

I request you on behalf of all the people from India that this thread be created or reopened (i didn't know who else to turn to as I have requested the mods there several times)

Why u keep closing thread when this types of thread have kept on existing and are running without any problem on many other threads..

What the mods exactly want the title/content is not being cleared..

Here are some thread that are running since the launch of that phone till today without being closed/problem

This are just some phones I owned and their threads I used on daily basis..

Why problem only in note 2 thread..

Either specify what exactly the title/content should be or reasons why threads are being closed only here..

We find problems and difficulties finding latest stores, prices, availability, contacts of owners, and it would be really appreciated if thread be kept exited/reopened..

Thanking you..

Sent to broncogr, _Alex_ and senior moderators and moderator panel and this thread specific moderator..

Please understand and reopen or let a new thread be created..

Thanking you..

u can get the 50gb free clod service of drop box. if you follow up the 12 or 7 steps included in ur sign up email. at first i get the 2 gb free, then dropbox will email you and tell you the procedure on how to update and get the remaining 48gb. exclusive for galaxy note 2 owners..

on the sprint forums it sounds like a lot if not all sprint stores will have it.

There have been many internet rumors going around that the 25th will only be an order day for the phone and you will have it 4-10 days later. All the sprint mods on the sprint forum all say that it will be a 25th release, meaning that you will have phone in hand.
