Dunno if you heard or read that unlocking bootkoader wipes the phone so be prepared to back up and restore as best you can without root apps line titanium etc. You should do it now. Also biotloader is relocked in a similar way to unlocking forget exact command ....

yeah i know. i always wait. especially since i am an early adopter this time. some of my apps are going on my nexus. i gotta trim some fat and mp3's. and it's fastboot oem lock but i'm sure samsung can still check unless you jig and reset it.

My GN was unlocked out of the box. so look at the lock symbol when starting, when its a bit open, its already unlocked.

Welcome to the club.
I had it for a week. My thoughts.
After a year with HTC Sense (Thunderbolt), I'm finally back to vanilla android, since I'm a former Nexus One owner. Atleast this should get speedy OS updates (even if there's a slight delay compared the to GSM version).
ICS is good. As you install more and more apps, and have them running in the background, it might get laggy, but thats expected.
HOWEVER, since this has the 720p display, the text, especially in the notification bar, looks much smaller (compared to my T-Bolt), especially the '4G' icon or the clock. Not a biggie for me, but the 720p display makes the text and images look much crisper.
If you do use custom roms, i suggest you keep the radio that was installed on the phone out of the box, since i tried the 4.0.4 radios and had some signal issues with it. Went back to 4.0.2 radios, and no problems since.
I have only one thing left waiting from Samsung, a proper 3-pin car dock and a hdmi desk dock.

Unlock bootloader right as you get it. This way if you decide to root and flash custom roms then you can do it without losing any app data because you'll be able to back it up using titanium backup.

The one he got is for Verizon obviously as he got it from Amazon for $99 meaning that it was on contract so no it can't be used on tmobile

I'm coming from the bionic.
First thing I love ICS and chrome just love it. Shape and feel is so nice.
I bought a battery extender(1mm larger then the regular battery) horrible got 4 hours. I miss my bionic because of how well it connected to the network.
Nexus G has a horrible time connecting I hope they fix it just like they did the bionic. It is a bit laggy but that's a soft issue for sure Google will fix it.
It seams like its slow on purpose (my opinion)
All and all only way I'll go back to the bionic is if they dont figure out the connection issues.
Hope I helped.

If you're so sure it's a hardware issue wouldn't you have to send it back? In which cause they'd notice you've voided the warranty with root and/or custom ROMs?

You realize it's easy to tell whether a phone has been unlocked, right? Potentially, Verizon could see the flag has been set and tell you to go pound salt.
Also, the mic cutting out *COULD* be a software issue. You said it happens to like half the people, but I've never had it happen, and I know 4 people with the phone that have no trouble. That's 0/5, which is less than 1/2.

It's real simple.. I didn't post this to argue with people. If you're willing to help me out then thank you. If not, then shut the hell up.
Look at the topic "microphone cutting out mid call" I never said it's hardware or software. But I do know it's not related to my rom. I've had Verizon replace my phone already for this issue and to be quite honest I'm looking to get a different phone because I'm sick of this one screwing up.
The issue I'm having is totally irrelevant, I just need a screen shot so I don't have to go back to stock 4 days earlier than necessary.

It's not lazy by any means because in the time it's taken me to respond to your annoying posts I could have un rooted and locked my bootloader.
And explain to me how it's stupid? It's just working around the system which I know doesn't work because I've been through it before. If this is my first time doing it then I'd agree with you, but why do I need to return to stock to give some Verizon tech that doesn't even know if my phone has a removable battery or not answers to questions that doesn't matter.

What they're likely going to ask is Android version, baseband, build number, etc. to check if you're updated to 4.0.2 or if something got corrupted or whatnot. It's not like they're going to ask what the kernel version is.

Why don't you guys stop being dicks and just help him. Go troll somewhere else. He obviously doesn't want to sit stock for 3 days. Who would? I'll get my Buddy to send me a picture for you bro. Give me a few

I guess people are just plain dumb here huh. There's a whole thread just on this problem. Root or stock its still there. They won't just let you switch out phones to something else. I am pretty sure they do the whole refurbished thing like 4 times before offering a different phone. I had to do this with my old fascinate.

Just ordered my unlocked Galaxy Nexus!

I'm pretty excited . Just ordered my galaxy nexus from the play store. I've been stuck using a droid x2 since last year on Verizon and I'm just so sick of it being so locked down. There is an alpha ics from out for it now but its buggy.
What's the first things I should do when I get it?
Sent from my MB870 using XDA

Send a text?

Insert SIM card would be my first action though.
Or even better, charge it for 6 hours then turn it on
First thing i'd do was to just plainly turn it on and use it stock unrooted unlocked.
Though bear in mind that if you want to root it later you have to unlock bootloader which will wipe your phone (yes pictures and all other stuff stored).

I assume you plan to activate it on another carrier? You mentioned that you're on Verizon, but it's not going to be possible to activate your new GN on Big Red.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

As pointed out above the GN from the Play store is the GSM version not the CDMA/LTE version. So if you are planning to stay with verizon you will need to return it and get the right phone. If you are planning to go with a different carrier then awesome, I would suggest playing with it stock at least for a little bit.

Here is the info for getting it set up on a GSM carrier http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1455014
I was on Verizon for 9 years myself and decided to dump them since they really don't offer anything different for me, from what I am getting on StraighTalk Att. My biggest mistake was not dumping carriers years ago.

When I said , what should I do first I was referring more towards the rooting/unlocking . I am aware this new galaxy nexus is an unlocked GSM phone. I am dumping Verizon and going the Straight Talk route . I have run a Straight Talk sim in my old Atrix with just some apn mods. I'm guessing my phone should work without any apn changes since its fully unlocked and the sim I ordered from ST is an At&t sim. Should have the new gn weds or Thurs.

Congrats on dumping Verizon. They are just the worst IMO. They really ruin the Android experience will all there medalling with the phones. I can see why Google doesn't particularly like them.
You are going to have to change your APN settings on your Galaxy Nexus to get the ST sim to work. There are instructions on their website.

first thing would be....root that beast and experiment with it! its a nexus so

Download mskips tool kit and root it. Then using the same tool kit install touch recovery. After that slap on Romans aokp rom. Use the lean kernel found on rootz. I get better battery life on that kernel.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I actually already downloaded and installed the 7.0ToolKit on my laptop. I'm ready for when my Galaxy Nexus gets here. My Straight Talk SIM, case and screen protectors will all be here waiting for me when I get home from work on Thursday. I see me dragging ass at work on Friday.

So, how do you like it so far?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

i would rather get S3 than this phone.

I just ordered one today too. Price is right to be off contract, I dont want to be stuck in a contract ever again. SG3 will be too pricey for me off contract so this will hold over for some time.

There are too many thread like this, but its nice to see anyway.
I recommend using a ruler to measure how curved the screen is which isn't so much like the previous Nexus S, but still cool.
After that, unlock the bootloader, install cwm, install AOKP rom and Franco kernel. Just make sure you're flashing the Verizon roms.

Touch it

Loving my Galaxy Nexus. Unlocked,rooted , cwm touch and I'm running aokp and Franco kernel. Its a big step up from my droid x2 when I had Verizon.

Lost phone.

Just lost my phone in taxi I'm rooted also have face unlock and pattern unlock secondary. Is there anything I can do to assure the finder can't use it. Or can I track it. I'm on monthly 4g so no insurance!

That sucks man. As for gps locating your phone I believe that's offered by your insurance, or if you had any type of Norton, kaspersky, trend micro etc security on it. They offer stuff like that. Otherwise you might be SOL. As for them getting in I don't know. Maybe someone else can shed some light on that answer.

did u ever set up Lookout on you phone? it comes w/it.. if you maybe randomly did one day, you can find it with that

2nd to the Plan B. That works amazingly. Also, check if you have a cab receipt. You might be able to use that to identify which cab specifically had the phone. You can call into their dispatch office and ask for that cab. Lookout is awesome too.

I called the cab said he saw no phone. Another passanger could have gotten it. I'm not even going to bother now what's done is done. Thanks to you and everyone for your help. I wanted a new phone anyway maybe my wife will get me one for fathers day. I'll wait and probably get a note or galaxy nexus I'm sticking with Samsung I have a windows and a iPhone at home but don't feel like it I can't go backwards .

I find that the GS3 is not much of a significant upgrade from the GSII. I would much more suggest a Galaxy Nexus since it will still be relevant for many more months to come. The GN comes with pure stock ICS not that TW crap. The GN is almost certain to receive jellybean directly from Google pretty quick while the S3 will have to suffer through what the SII just went through from GB to ICS

Sent from my SGH-T989D using XDA

I would recommend setting up a pin lock on your next device, that way whenever the phone is restarted it prompts you for the pin. It doesn't matter if it's been wiped or not, it registers with your carrier. Also, as added security, I use Avast and from there I can remotely wipe my sd card and the phone, thus removing any chance of someone getting any of my personal info.
