Hi poeple!!
Came to say hello...ohh...ohh...ohhohhhhhhh....
Last week, after some research and comparing to One X made my decision for Gnex after 2 years owning a HD2.
What a beauty! And great community/custom kernels/roms on xda
Love this phone
Grtz 0kk0
Welcome, it's very refreshing to have a new owner come in and NOT say "why does my GN suck compared to my ______"
I've had mine since January and couldn't be happier.

You won't be disappointed. It's an amazing phone with a beautiful screen, and you'll love having no physical / capacitive buttons

Received mine from the Play Store last Thursday and I love it so far. My data speeds aren't as good as my other hspa+ devices on AT&T, but they aren't terrible.
Yeah I just got my phone 2 weeks ago...Stock google is just so...nice.
Just got mine 3 hours ago. I'm loving it so far. Came from an iPhone 4S.

You know, I love mine too. But my friend (who converted me to Android from the dark evil hands of Apple) is having a torrid time with his.
He loves Android and had always owned one, but this is the first time he's absolutely hating the experience. his device reboots at least twice every day (he's on stock, but he tries a lot of different apps) he did so in older phones too but never faced this problem.
I love my nexus and will never give it up, but let's be honest, the build is just not stable for prime time. Not every ones lucky with it.

I bought this phone 2 months ago and then bought 1 for my lady a month later. The both of us couldn't be happier coming from the T-Mobile galaxy s2. I can't find a reason to flash a rom or kernel yet as I can't imagine developers being better that GOOGLE themselves ya know what I mean
Sometimes a phone is more then the sum of its parts or specs. I believe this phone is great example of this.

Just got my Nexus yesterday and coming from the Droid X2 I can tell you it's very relieving knowing you're in good hands.
All of this positive talk is helping me get over the "sticker shock". Lol
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
The sticker shock happens but it is much easier to swallow when we buy 300-550 tablets with accessories. Anyway I have had mine a week form the play store its been awesome. Coming from T-Mobile galaxy s 2. Much nicer and smoother.

Just got home from picking one up from a google employee. Returning my HTC One X for this and i'm liking it so far. Is there a way to tell which build is on here (yakju, etc.)

these devs blow stock out of the water with all the features, customizations & insane battery life. custom roms & kernels in this dev section are definitely worth checking out...
This is my original post about how my N1 died.
Farewell to Nexus One
I am looking for new phone, and I am interested with Galaxy Nexus, as I am a Nexus fanboy.
So, how is Galaxy Nexus so far? How big the upgrade if compared to N1? I don't read any reviews about it yet, and I want to hear some small opinion or review from xda members.
Thanks a lot.
A giant upgrade!

Use the search feature and read existing reviews with 10+ pages. Its a lot more efficient than starting a thread.
You'll get a lot of biased posts as well since...well..you are in the Galaxy Nexus forum.
Its $350 without a contract. I think that's a steal. Get it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Get the GNex. You'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
Its the best phone out there.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I went from a G1 to N1 to NS to GNex... Each phone has been better than the last.
It's a huge jump from the N1 to the GNex, don't wait any longer.

A complete review of the Galaxy Nexus(and ICS).
You have ferrari of 80s and you ask for the ferrari of 2012. Take it and you'll see by your self. This baby flies !!!

I had the nexus one and loved it, but switching to the galaxy nexus was the best thing, don't know how I used the screen on the nexus one its tiny, plus you get faster radios, way better camera, a ffc and you can actually play games without the multi touch crapping out or being limited by the Adreno 200 GPU. And last but not least you get [email protected][email protected]!.
Get the galaxy nexus and you won't look back.

Nexus gives you wings?
.. but yeah, N1 to a GN is a HUGE upgrade. Any phone of this generation will be a huge upgrade. A caution of word though, after using Galaxy Nexus... your N1 screen will look like a joke. At least that's what GN did to me to any phone with a screen smaller than 4.5"
Hell, I went from the HTC One X to the GNex and it felt like a massive upgrade. I couldn't imagine going from N1 to GN. Do eeeet.
Get the GN and no mistake.
I'd changed my GN only with the next GN.
A big upgrade that's for sure.

Just use the open VPN for android off the market and you don't need to worry about tun. Just import your openvpn profile. Its nice app as you don't need root. It works on stock.

OK so here's the deal. My upgrade is here (Verizon) and I'm really diggin the new razr m, but I've only used HTC devices and I LOVE them. So should I use my upgrade for the razr m at 50 bucks or should I wait on one of the new unannounced HTC devices that looks to be releasing later this month. I love HTC but I can't spend 200 on a new device right now. Come on guys help lead me in the right direction lol

You know I usually judge my next purchace on how well its built, is the software current, and of course rootability. Motorola just recently stated most 2011 models will be upgraded to 4.0 or 4.1 (can't recall exactly). They are working with devices that do preform well and have decent battery life, plus at that upgrade price, that's a killer deal.
Now that I have become a Motorola rep for you lol, try it out see if it fits you, if not move on. It's all about choice in Android.

I really think you should spend 100$ more and get the galaxy s3 (wireless.amazon.com for 150$) or, spend 99$ for a galaxy nexus. I'm never buying a motorola phone, they seem pretty notorious for not updating their software. Also, if you are a fan of XDA and the things that are happening here, stick to what's hot and is going to continue generating interest for at least the next 2 years - which in this case, i think will definitely be the S3. The nexus phones are also super popular and will be worked on too.
don't go motorola, just don't. They're garbage (coming from a Droid X2.)
In all honesty, right now, I'd go with the G-nex. I don't really like the S3, but it's just personal taste I guess
Avoid Motorola like the plague.

I would keep my upgrade and wait for the next HTC nexus. My dinc 2 shows no signs of dieing so I think ill be able to wait that long.
Moto is good if you don't want root.

I have the OG Droid RAZR with grandfathered unlimited data on Verizon. My next upgrade is in May 2014. A local retailer has the Verizon Gnex at only $430 (full price, new.) So I am asking Gnex owners whether you would spring for the Gnex now, if you were in my position, or wait one year to see what's available then. I like my OG RAZR, but the Gnex is appealing to me.

Wait. The gnex is a nice phone but it is a year and a half old.

Thanks the good advice. I'm going to wait to see what comes out.

You're better off waiting, the galaxy nexus is showing its age and is quite likely to lose its official support from Google soon.

You could go on craigslist and buy a used one in good condition for half the price of that. And u will be OK till may. 430 bucks for a phone that's that old is ridiculous if u ask me.

this phone is starting to show its age when you begin playing more modern games or if youre performing heavy multitasking
id say you should wait it out a bit

If I weren't stuck in a Verizon contract, or if Verizon offered this phone, I would definitely be interested in the Nexus 4.

Mm alright, To answer your question: don't buy the Galaxy Nexus. It's a great phone but it isn't worth 430 dollars - anymore.
430 is nuts. Buy one from here if you really want one.

Just picked one up for 150 on Craigslist. You can get S3's for under 300.

$430 for a Smart Phone is just unbelievable, I personally don't know what I'm going to do when I want to get a new phone ( I currently have a Galaxy Nexus with Unlimited Data). I guess I will be a couple generations behind and wait a good year and a half. I can justify buying a smartphone for $200 dollars. You can actually buy a new Galaxy Nexus on Ebay for $200.00 I would do that if you need a phone right now.
I appreciate everyone's advice. You have some very helpful people in this forum!

Since you like your current phone and not in a hurry; I'd say wait for the Nexus 5. It's unlikely to be revealed on tomorrow's I/O but should be released by November or something, and should come with Android 5, So it's worth the wait and I believe you could get an unlocked version from Google Play Store for less than what you are willing to pay at the moment.
like the person above said, I suggest you wait until the next nexus comes out in November. Plus, $430 for the galaxy nexus is outrageous and you could get it for $200 in craigslist or ebay.
