first off there are some ways to calibrate an battery without any apps..
BUT.. your battery is brand new and hasn't reached its potential yet, so calibrating is useless.
If you have battery issues, try getting an update to 4.0.2 + radio. your on XDA you'll find enough info here.

I do believe the battery gets better after a weeks use or something like that.

Or maybe you have I-just-got-a-new-toy-and-have-been-loading-it-with-apps-and-playing-with-it-all-day syndrome side effects are short battery life

I just got mine today as well, after talking myself out of it since it's release...mainly because of lack of removable storage, signal issues, and camera quality. I'm not having any signal issues despite the fact that I live in a generally poor reception area, camera isn't as bad as I was expecting, and I think I can live without the MicroSD slot in exchange for the sheer beauty of this phone. The materials also feel nicer than I thought they would. The OS is a surprisingly big improvement over 2.3, enough that I think i'll actually wait a bit before flashing any ROM's. Very very nice...

Yes! The threads are fine but scrolling past a dozen identical ones is enough to make a person gas up the flamethrower.
Btw, welcome OP! The Gnex is the best damn phone until the next Nexus is released

I'm sorry if no one likes to read these... and thanks

I've had mine for a week now...
And I'm happy with it... NO CARRIER BLOAT, faster updates direct from Google, etc. I have to admit, however, that I was skeptical that it could replace my SGSII (T989) but I'm happy to say it was eBay'd this morning. And after seeing the SGSIII, I'm glad I didn't wait and I'm not looking back.

I like these threads Just got mine the other day, too. Sold an iPhone 4s and have no regrets. This is the first time I've used 4G and its great when I'm away from wifi. The ability to customize just about everything on these devices with Android won me over.

If ur phone is new u can't judge battery life immediately, give it a few days. Plus, update to 4.0.4, i was getting 4hrs on 4.0.2 and now it's over 5hrs screen on every charge, using stock 1750mAh.

Its amazing.
Fast, good support (look for yourself in android development ), good amount of accessories.
The battery is not the greatest, so that may be a problem for you. I get about 3 hours of screen on time with all 3g. So if that's enough for you, you should be fine
I personally didn't get the s3 because it was not pentaband and I'm on wind so I could only get the dual core version, so I decided to keep this until the new nexus comes out.

Did the screen hurt anyone else's eyes at first?

I have had my galaxy nexus for a few days now and I like it, but the screen strains my eyes. I have no idea why. I have been using LCDs for my whole life though . Anyone else? Thank y

On max brightness, this screen is quite intense. Personally I find auto brightness to be a much better fit.

I think/hope he was talking about his own question.
I use auto and I have noticed a bit of eye strain after many hours of Netflix. I don't remember my One X causing so much. Maybe try 50% or 75%? CM10 and modified kernels have custom color settings you could also try.

No problem.... I should have added about the auto brightness... BTW... did not upset me... was actually just trying to help. Sometimes we miss the simplest solutions so I wanted to check. No sweat.... glad you made it better.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

I think it is the color shift. I noticed the same thing when I first got the Nexus. Since I moved to a new ROM plus kernel I don't have the strain anymore. I could be wrong and maybe I just got used to it but it seemed as soon as I flashed I was much happier.

No problem. I didn't see any reference to what model you have if you have Sprint try this Rom.

It is only for Sprint though so if you have GSM or Verizon you will have to try something else.

Got my nexus :)

I would rather have a user post a stupid question and learn how to do something the correctly than to have them be worried and screw up... Everyone's gotta start somewhere - none of us just magically knew how to do all of this.
Anyways, enjoy your new phone! When I got mine, the very first thing I did was unlock, flash TWRP and install AOKP. ^_^ Coming from a locked Droid X2, this is like heaven to me.

Me too! Came in the mail today as well. Have you tried wallet yet? I had a S3 and I never could get wallet to work. That's what prompted the nexus.

Have not yet any luck with it ?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

No. I'm scared to. lol. I tried it after doing the hack job to the S3 and I looked like an idiot at the store when it didn't work. Maybe today I'll give it a go. Will keep you posted.

Thx

It was already installed when I received the phone. I have the gsm version. If you're on Verizon, I think there is a way to get it installed. Check out the galaxy s3 forum for instructions. Just a note, I followed the instructions there before I returned the s3 and wallet never worked.

Aw well I will look into it see if I can find something about it thanks man
