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.

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

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...

I am also new to the nexus forums, just arranged to buy one for 225. Woot! It'll be my fourth Android phone, and I'm finally ready to start getting my feet wet with some developing and/or theme making. Started with the Captivate, then the Infuse, currently on a Note, and now I'm adding the GNex as my secondary phone for developing. Although I think it has potential to displace my Note as my daily driver. I love Samsung phones. =].
My desire for getting into developing comes from my ORCD, as just flashing ROMs is not enough anymore.

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!

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.

I actually really liked my g2x, the screen was awesome on it and it felt good in the hand. Also the tegra 2 was smokin fast, IMO was faster than my gs2. Just sucked that it had such little ram and the battery life was horrible. And the camera blew too

Dude I did the exact same change (mine was the skyrocket s2) and I was like
Makes that phone feel like a pos
I have gotten to play with all the newest fancy phones (ONE X, SGS3, etc..) , ill still take my nexus any day of the week. In fact, I would go as far as saying If I was forced to used one of the fancy new phones (that isn't a nexus), I would be extremely unhappy.
An acquaintance of mine the other day was showing me his new [whatever the newest motorola is], making sure to emphasize how much better it is than the "old" galaxy nexus. Next he asked me if I knew how to get the verizon bloat off and when he would be getting a jellybean update... I just laughed.
I paid$150 New for mine plus I get a $50 rebate, and still have the Evo 3D, I just don't use the Evo though since it has sense and since you can't remove bloat without rooting.

I probably would have kept my S2 Hercules if the call quality wasn't so crappy. that thing had some serious call echo on every ROM i tried including stock on both mine and my gf's S2 plus I think that phone was a lot of peoples first android... there was tons of noobs asking the same question 10 times on every page of every ROM thread:what: got annoying real quick lol

Had an iPhone 4S, gave it to my gf. Had an epic before that, selling the crapwiz S2, waiting on the GNEX to come in the mail!!!!
Good on you for paying only 200, great deal for a phone which I have no complaints about beyond speaker volume. I remember being terrified in the interim waiting for shipment of my phone when I came on here and saw all the 'my screen sucks' threads. Just a question if purchasing a used Nexus, is there a quick and dirty way of determining if the secure element necessary for Google Wallet is intact?
I received mine a few days ago. I bought it off ebay for 240 bucks, it came with a nice case and is in like new condition.
This thing is amazing and coming from a Thunderbolt that I have had for well over a year now it makes me wonder what cell phones are gonna be like in 10 or 15 years. I mean the display on the Nexus is gorgeous, the screen is about the perfect size and has a fairly high resolution, the phone is pretty thin, has plenty of built in memory, the OS is intuitive and silky smooth from a performance perspective... I could go on and on but I honestly don't know how things could get that much better. Really the only thing from a hardware perspective that comes to mind is battery life. Maybe in 10 years you will be able to go a week on heavy usage without having to charge your phone.
Anyone here thinking of selling there Galaxy and Getting the Nexus? I'm debating it but the internal only memory is a real dissaponitment especially since I bought a 32 gb sd card with my Galaxy
Opnion on the Nexus 4? To get or not?

Gotta wait till the 29th for me to make any decisions, but I'm not gonna lie, the lack of microSD slots these days is really starting to tick me off.
yup I would do that but no sdcards slot makes me say hell no.
But hopefully they release more than 1 nexus, I would few more days.
Well, if you already have the nexus, no SD cards are something that you are uses too. That's probably one of the biggest adjustments I'd say.
Personally, I prefer SD card support.

I have a GSM G-Nex and love it, as well as my $30 T-Mobile plan. Unfortunately for some weird family plan related reasons I may grudgingly go Verizon. The only phone I have had my eye on as of late is the Nexus 4, but that is not an option. What is a good alternative? I like big screens, and up to date software, and I usually flash custom ROMs from this wonderful site anyway. (only running stock right now because 4.2 is really nice, great on my battery).
Gnex, gs3, or wait a week and check out the new HTC coming out.

Droid DNA, GS3, & Note 2 seem cool. Verizon G-Nex could probably be had for very cheap though. I hope I can just adjust their family plan and not have to join. I went prepaid because I had to, but now I really really don't want to go back to contract/locked-phone land!
I like the Note 2, if the bootloader gets unlocked I think I will be jumping on that one.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised to see the Nexus 4 eventually hit VZW, but who knows.
Ended up putting off switching until my GNex died a violent death. The Moto X has been a worthy successor thus far, 3 days in.
