You're about to have a new community member! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

So, today I watched the Sammy keynote, didn't like the S3, and so I called up VZW and ordered my shiny new Nexus. It should be here Tuesday (and now I'm petrified it won't for some reason lol). Can't wait, and already know what I'm doing as soon as I get it. Activate it, upgrade to 4.0.4 so I have radios and bootloader, unlock, root, flash TWRP, flash AOKP, flash GLaDOS kernel, and have an epic phone! Can't wait to be a part of this community!

Just curious since I've never done it yet but why not order from AmazonWireless for cheaper?
Also really happy to have a vet of your caliber on the Nexus side of things, welcome aboard I look forward to joining as well come tomorrow when my GSM version arrives

I'm transferring an upgrade and upgrading early too, so I can't. For people who can, it's smart though!

What a great post

If this is sarcasm, it's not appreciated. I prefer people to be nice to each other and even be *gasp* HELPFUL. So anyway, from what I've heard the large part of the community is awesome, so can't wait.

Welcome to the Nexus community I wasn't impress by GS3 neither...

the only difference for me was flashing RasCream with the Trinity kernel. but Eze is a great guy, so GlaDOS is alright in my book

But you still had to come here and post that?

From my experience, AOKP is AMAZING (on the INC2 though), and if you hate it so much, what ROM should I flash? Liquid and CNA are just AOKP with extra features (I think you get the message). The other one I am inclined to try is Paradigm.

Oh and I'll also try GummyNex!

Apex is awesome

No mention of 4G but him and his team (TeamWIN) were the ones to bring Wimax to CM7 for the Evo so we can only hope for the best... he DID mention on this twitter that he will be moving off on his own for the project.
Personally, I'll be more than happy with a working CM9 for our device - it's just going to scream with our specs. Besides, I'm almost never on 4G anyway.

(REQ) Paranoid Android?

Hi, Just wondering if any developers would consider building a paranoid android rom (like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1628206). I just thought that it looked nice. Anyways, thanks for all the work devs!

Mr.Highway said:
I highly doubt it, based on the fact, it's a Samsung based device ROM. .cross compatible roms, like Samsung to HTC, or vice versa require allot of reworking files.
As for the devs here, one might be able to, but I can't say.

I don't think it would look bad. Touchpro had a screenie of one of his old ics roms and he was running tablet mode and it looked sick! I know that this isn't tablet mode this is a rom but still looks sick
So is this Rom being worked on? I can't wait to try it out.
Someone can use my my port guide, in my signature, to try it out. Just find a HTC device that has the ROM. The mytouch 4g has it

Mr. Highway you do not give yourself enough credit. I bet you could port this rom in a quarter of a cigarette not a half Thanks for the reading!

Welcome.
I've tried them all, I don't really have a favorite.
Paranoid Android is my choice because of its tablet mode and hybrid capabilities.
The most popular kernel, correct me if I'm wrong, seems to be Franco.
There's plenty to choose from. If you're anything like me, you'll end up trying them all anyway.
Sent from the future.
Thanks man. Really helps to get input. I came from a Droid 1 before the charge and was a "flashaholic" with that but the charge only had 1 rom so I was limited. Got offered a nexus and that's all she wrote. I probably will end up trying them all. Also how is kejars gummy rom? I liked his stuff on the charge? Thanks in advance

It's all good. Clockworkmod recovery doesn't touch your SD card data. Don't use stock recovery. Being a "flash-a-holic" you know that though lol.

I've become reliant on AOKP because you can add up to 5 icons to your navbar software buttons, including application shortcuts (and another 5 long press shortcuts as well).
It's nice being able to quickly jump to Chrome, or quickly open up my mp3 player while in the car. Here's what I mean:

Plus I do find the alert toggles really are quite nice. Even though other roms have them too, they seem to work best in AOKP.

Can we root or install roms on the GS3?

My Galaxy nexus just died. I dropped it and cannot read the sdcard inside it. I tried CWM recovery, and it gives me io errors when trying to flash it..
I have 3 options:
Repair, get the S3 or wait for the next nexus if it comes out on october 29th.
What would you guys suggest I do? I really love the Nexus brand because i get all the updates directly from Google.. I also love Android 4.1.2 and I know the S3 does not have it..

you need to slow down and not post until you realize where you are. the is XDA. a place where things in the mainstream are not. that being said. we have Android 4.1.2. unlike the rest in the mainstream that don't. so just take my advice and search around the forums before creating threads of your own.
The answer is Yes, I am currently on the Cyanogen 10 Nightlies ... Everything works great aside from some random screen artifacts in youtube and the overall very functional and worth the dabble.

Well, technically it's not out for AT&T or Verizon or TMO.
But it is officially out for Sprint now I think. Released a day or two ago from what I read.
But most or all of the GSIII's have 4.1.2 available via custom ROM installs.
Really? Your title can't be serious. 1. Your on XDA. 2. You made mention of CWM, so you know rooting. 3. One tab back leads you to all GS3 development - I'm assuming you found your nexus rooting info on here so you're well aware of how the site is organized.
Is it April 1st again? There's another thread asking about rooting tutorial.
