Develop Bugs

So I bought a Galaxy Nexus earlier today...

...and I might return it. I really am not terribly impressed with it. ICS is cool and all but I would much rather have a bone stock ICS ROM running on my Epic Touch. My biggest complaint about it, besides how narrow the screen is, is that games just don't run nearly as smooth on it as they do on the E4GT. I know it has a weaker GPU, but I didn't realize it wasn't powerful enough to run Riptide GP without dropping frames all the time. Pretty disappointing, TBQH. Verizon has an extended buyers remorse period because of the holidays. I am going to hang on to it till Jan 14th and give it a serious chance but so far it's not looking good.
edit: Oh yeah, I HATE how the home/back/tasks soft keys persist even when playing games. That's the main reason why I returned my Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus, and I can't tell you how disappointed I am that they are still there in ICS.

Such a shame that the Galaxy Nexus is such a let down. My friend has one so I played around with his for an hour or so. There was some choppiness during transitions here and there. Only reason I'd pick it over an Epic Touch is because it's a Nexus device. But since it's not available for Sprint it's not a phone I'd buy.

It has the gpu of the galaxy s1, that may explain why it doesn't hum like our phone. The ti processor is very good, perhaps >= exynos but the gpu kills it.
Only thing I love is the screen (except that the on screen buttons can't be toggled) and ICS, seems like the colors are more real. In every other aspect, I have to go with the S2 (minus the tmo and skyrocket variants)

It's the gpu of the original galaxy s, clocked almost twice as fast. But it's still not as fast as the mali in the s2.

I played around with my coworker's GNex and I think its nice and all, but......
I can't stand the lack of search button and the lack of a menu button. I felt like I was using a Pre or iPhone, I couldn't find out where the flippin' options were easily (I know that most have a little menu button in the top corner, but that's not apparent to me). Try to get to settings quickly? you can't without finding that app for settings. I also found it pretty laggy compared to my E4GT.
I do like the core app GUI changes, however. Very nice. The phone itself though....meh.

Compatability. For example, T-Mobile's 42 Mbit/s HSPA+ network is not compatible with exynos which is why they have a different processor.

The downside if exynos is Android does not natively support it. So every time Google releases an os, Samsung has to port it which is no small task.

You guys do realize the iphone does not utilize 4G so the processor can be the same across the board. However, android phones do use 4G and not all networks are created equal (ex: HSPA+ FOR T-mo). Hence, the different specs.

The 4 is an A2 CPU and idk what gpu its running. The 4s is running an A3, is dual core, and beefier gpu. The iPad 1 and iPhone 4 use the same CPU, that's why there are jailbreaks available for them. IPad 2 and iPhone 4s share the same CPU. Its speculated its clocked higher on the pad. There also isn't a jailbreak for the A3 powered devices. There's no difference in hardware between the carriers of the same model phone. All 4 are the same and all 4S are the same.
I had a 4S for a couple of months on sprint before coming back to Android. I did some homework before and during owning the phone too.
I understand aosp is different than touchwiz. One alternative I could suggest is to get the et4g. Root, recovery and no ciq it after updating to ek02. After that, run sprint id and choose the clean pack. That is a bare bones setup, stockish launcher, and no touchwiz. Then go into the system/app directory and do something like add ".old" to the end of the apk of the bloatware and touchwiz crap. Now you have a pseudo asop looking ROM with the bloat rem'd out.

Sprint to get 1.5ghz dual core.

Are they just overclocking the Sprint version? http://www.technobuffalo.com/tag/galaxy-nexus/

i really hope they get a qualcomm version and just took a higher advertised clock speed over real life performance, i will never be using a snapdragon processor again, at least if their still using adreno

Its an ad, and its probably wrong.

Guess well find out soon enough. I won't be going back to Sprint till LTE is in my area.

I agree, I think its the ad that's wrong

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

They used OMAP4460 in the VZW version as Exynos doesn't like LTE at all. That's why the US version of the SGS2 is Snapdragon instead of Exynos. As for the GSM version, I'm guessing because they couldn't be bothered using anything better.

Thanks bud! So our verizon version has a different and better chip set?

Being a Nexus device, Google likes spreading the love. Nexus One had Snapdragon, Nexus S had Hummingbird, Xoom (not Nexus, but closely supported by Google) had Tegra, GNex has TI. Next up, who knows... But they certainly seem to like broadening the amount of chipsets they support more than they're focusing on raw performance.

Here sprint has some serious data issues. So bad tha AT&T is faster on edge much of the time. They could release a 2ghz version and i still wouldn't go back to them. I'm sure that it is likely worse now with the iphone.

Just to set your story straight....
The SoC is rated for UP to 1.5 GHz. This doesn't mean that our chips are in fact rated for operation at 1.5 GHz. Take some time and search the dev threads about this. It's a pretty big misconception regarding the 4460. Not all 4460's are in fact the same (apparently). Did Samsung/Google underclock these chips? Slightly, but as you will see, these chips will not in fact (generally) hit clockrates higher than 1.4 GHz. The general thought is that there is an issue with the clock generator for 1.5 GHz and higher, which causes the problem.
The GN for Sprint will have the same problems, and will probably be a PR nightmare now.....especially when users find out that their GN only runs at 1.2 GHz.

Sprint version probably has different SoC.

The GS2 is still the top phone (top 3 at least), except the screen (nexus+note > gs2) and CPU (nexus > gs2). Otherwise the GPU + storage capabilities exceed the nexus it's a close call
I think the GS2 has held its value better than any other smart phone that came out last year, which is an extremely good accomplishment in today's fast-growing market. Though, the GS2's reign will end soon with phones like the One X and GS3

How is that old technology. I would say its cutting edge. There is only one phone out that uses a quad core and its a Tegra 3 not a Exynos. Exynos is supposed to be way more powerful. Also since Nvidia and qualcomm had a falling out ( from my understanding ) its not even available in the US. Quad core with 20% lower power consumption, bigger HD screen and 12 mp camera alone makes me want it bad.

Im super excited for this! I dont think the next nexus will be all that to be honest. The Nexus has never really stood for groundbreaking technology and if Sammy makes it your probably looking at the chip that will be in it lol. The benchmarks on the S3 look amazing thoughleaps and bounds better than anything out their currently. And we still dont know the GPU yet. I think so far its pretty much demolished my chance at getting the evo 4g lte. Unless they do something crazy like throw an S4 in the Sprint version.

Because an A9 chip doesn't mean crap, it's old tech. And the Mali400 was already old with the S2 came out, why the heck are they using it again. It's not going to perform much differently than this phone aside from some big HD games, the only difference youre looking at is probably some sharper pictures and a nicer screen.

Well, it comes down to this....
Samsung quad core(older technology doubled)(like a nice 1988 Iroc Z28)
HTC dual core(new tech)(like a finely tuned Audi A3 turbo)
Motorola Tegra 3(a new Mustang....not a cobra)
Where is the Ferrari?(Quad Core Krait)
I am on the fence. I bet HTC drains slower. Motorola might have one huge battery(3300). Samsung has a better screen and pictures.

the question is, there is really an upcoming NEW nexus?
usually a nexus come to show a new version of android..JB already make is debut with the nexus 7
i don't think there will be an other android version this year..so probably no new nexus, but just a galaxy nexus plus (latest rumors) same as the actual but with a 8mpx camera and a 1.5ghz cpu (omap 4460/70)

It'd be boring if we didn't get a new one but if we do I don't think it'll be anything A9 based. I'd hope for Omap5 or Snapdragon S4Pro quad.

I think there will only be a next Nexus when there's a new version of Android.... We already had JB with the Nexus 7...
I think we won't have anything new towards the end of this year....
Maybe the (rumor) improved Galaxy Nexus+ ? With 4470?
For a NEW Nexus phone, it will probably use a quad-core processor...

Hope for an OMAP5.

Nexus doesn't usually use top of the line tech, wouldn't be surprised if this was the Nexus, a slight jump but nothing major. Will probably only see a 8MP camera, and 1 GB of RAM as well.

I'm fine with the idea of the omap4470, the sgx544 is actually a decent amount more powerful than the 540 coming close to the tegra 3.

usually a nexus come to show a new version of android..JB already make is debut with the nexus 7
i don't think there will be an other android version this year..so probably no new nexus, but just a galaxy nexus plus (latest rumors) same as the actual but with a 8mpx camera and a 1.5ghz cpu (omap 4460/70)

late 2010/2011 they released the Nexus S with 2.3.3 Gingerbead. Google I/O i think it was when they released honeycomb for the tablets, and then we got ICS with the Galaxy Nexus in october. there will definately be the new version of Android this fall with a new device or devices

im 100% positive they'll release the new version with the phones this fall.
if you watch Matias Duarte's interview with The Verge you can tell how exited he is about the next Android OS:

You guys are insane for thinking they're going to use top of the line hardware. The Nexus line is a demonstration of fluidity in minimal hardware conditions.
At best, 1.5 gb of RAM, and some incremental processor upgrade.
I wouldn't be surprised if they used Tegra 3 (as in Nexus 7) to streamline things.

Who ever said the Nexus can't have top of the line hardware? Obviously not HTC since the Nexus One was one of the best phones that year. Google never said the Nexus line is to be midrange.

The Nexus phones were always a variant/variation of the OEMs current #1 phone.
Nexus One -> HTC Desire
Nexus S -> Samsung Galaxy S
Galaxy Nexus -> Samsung Galaxy S II
