Know how to mod a live wallpaper?? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Basically, I'm wondering If anyone knows how to make the nexus live wallpaper (the one that started with Nexus S) darker? Such as making the wallpaper background a little darker than it is....hopefully u know what I mean! Its just too light for this amazing screen!

Download Nexus Kang from the Market.
Edit: Never mind, doesn't work on ICS. Really disappointed in kmobs.

Good job. However, If I ever saw touch wiz on my nexus I would throw it at a wall and piss on the broken pieces.

Ohh noes, its Touchwiz! 0_o lol. I am so stoked that we have so many options here on the GNex, great job, Skt!
Vicious ported Sense 4 as well, he never posted it though, just tweeted about it.
Excellent work!
Also .. burn, infidel! ;-)
Why not just get a GSii...

I actually liked TouchWiz on my Sprint GSII. It was very smooth because it had hardware acceleration and had some cool features with widgets, and the TouchWiz apps aren't all that bad.

yep...just sucks on tablets...at least honeycomb (well that was junk anyway)
@OP - please dont be like other people and never actually release it (or only release it when EVERYTHING is working)
I hate that...if something doesn't work...we can help...just publish it anyway
Wish I had a nexus....

How is Galaxy Nexus so far?

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.

Get the GNex. You'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
Its the best phone out there.

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.

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.

IPhone 5 jump ship or no

Share opinions on why or why not you guys would or would not jump ship to the iPhone 5
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
No. there is no need to even explain.
no lol....because i have a galaxy nexus that had all that stuff almost a year before they "invented" it.
why would anyone jump ship to an iPhone designed for the 2011 market? besides, the Galaxy Nexus has all of the iPhones 5 features, plus more.

And I got a Nexus because its unlocked and I can do with it as I please. WTF would I want a locked down device with a ui designed for kindergardeners??
Lock this.
Cannot wait to see the next Nexus mobile(s) now...
but ... but ... but, you get an extra row of icons!
Think of the innovation that went into this!
Does there even need to be a 5 after iphone? They are all (suck) the same!
Although for once, the new iPhone does look nice.
I'll stick with my awesomely mine Nexus.
Nexus all the way. No reason what so ever to switch over. Well unless you are an apple fanboi.

If under 500 for 64gb off contract, then yes. So in other words, highly unlikely. A 64gb iPhone would be great though to keep all my music with me so I don't have to worry about not having service to play all my music.

Bad choice with the S3?

You guys think the S3 was a bad choice for me? I've always been about pure android, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus. Screen cracked on the Nexus so I "upgraded" to an S3. It's really quick but kinda laggy. Galaxy Nexus was definitely quicker and now there's rumors of the new Nexus coming out around November/December which I'll wanna get. You guys think the S3 was a bad choice getting it at this time? Do you want the new Nexus or like Nexus better?
I could always sell my S3 when it comes out and buy the Nexus, if the S3 is still worth something in December.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2
The s3 will still be worth something in December. I understand your wanting a pure android experience.... But "quick but laggy", which is it?? I've had no complaints but everyone wants different things out of their devices.... If you are not happy with it, sell it and buy the nexus.

Own a nexus and it is no way smoother than the gs3. But if you want aosp just install aokp,cm10 or paranoiddroid. All of which work great on the gs3.
Touchwiz does get clunky after adding all my widgets but nova prime on stock with touchwiz icons worked well for me too.. currently though aokp is going solid.

I'm in the same boat with you. I think this device will really shine with jelly bean tho. I'd only switch if the nexus was a crazy camera. I don't game so quad core stuff doesn't sway me much

I used to think TouchWiz should be fast because it's the stock launcher. Nope. Even a few widgets slowed it down; Nova is my default and I am a happy camper again...

Oh, right; sorry I missed that. Yeah, my notification bar lags when I'm watching a YouTube video, too! Never had occasion to bring it down before there....
I think the JB OTA will solidify the GS3. I'm a little hesitant to run custom, too. I mean, they're called nightlies for a reason. If there was ever a bleeding edge, they are it.

Ya the lag isn't to big of a concern cause I think JB will really spice this phone up. I do t wanna run custom, I don't have the time to flash everyday anymore and keep up. And my laptop is broken rn
I'll still probably get the newest nexus though, if it has the rumored update and isn't made by LG.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2
I have both a nexus with custom JB and I have my S3 back to Triune2 ICS. I tested JB roms on the S3 and they ARE noticeably smoother! Also nova Prime is definitely a better experience than stock JB launcher on nexus (especially if you take advantage of the swipe gestures).
If you want to check where the difference in horsepower lies, load a fancy live wallpaper such as ocean HD (it was 25c a few days ago), it runs like butter on the S3 but the nexus struggles with it!

which rington do you use ?

im useing the stock " themos" ringtone, move from " Girtab " that was my one on the galaxy nexus.

T-Jingle. I've been on AT&T since 2004, but T-Jingle is just so pleasant yet alert. I hear it and I never get sick if it. I first heard it on my old Vibrant and I thought: "huh, that's a pretty catchy ringtones. It's attention-grabbing, but far from obnoxious." I never really had to explain why I was using AT&T, but had a T-Mobile phone and ringtone. MediaNET ftw, though.
The same one as the CTU in 24!
