My screen is harder to press than normal I have to apply a little more pressure to it . And its really bothering me anyone has any advice on what I can do to fix it ?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
is there a screen calibration app out there ? the problem comes and goes . more on charging when it begins and the only way it fixes if i eboot or (sometimes) turn my screen off then back on
Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ob3A0YXBwcy50b3VjaHNjcmVlbmJvb3N0ZXIuY29tIl0.
Thank you !!

Give us some clues..
i) Does your phone or screen get hotter when you have this problem?
ii) Do you run a custom ROM or Kernel on your GNex? If true, tell us which..

I just unrooted to see if that was the problem so no I have no rom just android 4.0.4 and locked bootloader .
Test something for me , touch ur screen very lightly and move from screens now when that works see if u can touch the navigation buttons very lightly like u did he screen . And tell me if it works

And it happens mostly when I charge it or hot

If it only happens when you're charging, Its because of your charger. My screen would go wonky on my epic with a cheap charger I have at work.

I tried that and it's ok on my device. Have you tried a different charger? Maybe your charger has a problem.
Just give it as try..

Inspect your USB pins, could be dirty, or bent. Clean/realign with care if needed.

My phone won't sleep for more than 3 seconds. Its driving me insane!!! I press the power button, 1-3 second later it'll just wake up alone. Its SO frustrating. I've bought different batteries, changed ROMs. Everything. It just won't sleep! I wanna throw this thing out the window!! >=[ i cant take it anymore :banghead:
Anyone have these issues??
Also to note. My phones one of those infamous "always charging" issues and it won't charge via usb

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Fast charge does exactly that.. charges fast lol.. its an option in most custom ROMs now.. eg. When ur gnex is connected to a PC in file transfer mode it doesn't charge very fast. But set it to fast charge and it turns off the connection to PC and charges almost as quick as a wall charger..
As for the warranty.. Samsung should be able to tell you or the original bill of sale that the guy from Craig's list should have given you
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Just call Samsung. Keep in mind if it is an international one you have no warranty.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Theres an option somewhere saying stay awake when charging
I believe you have a fault charging port, and best solution would be to send a warrant claim .
You could try to clean the charging port with a q-tip, and check if any of the pins are out of place.

Thanks guys! So if I call they'll know I'm not original owner right? And yes its unlocked gem international version
This phone has so many problems I literally can't take it anymore >=[

I've had the same problem twice. The first time I tried the old "Jimmy the pon" trick, where I bent the USB pin gently upwards so that it made better contact with the charger. It fixed it and was fine for a while, but the problem has returned and no amount of bending of the pin helps. Feels like a hardware issue that needs a replacement. Don't think that's doable.

UPDATE: Turns out it was do-able; got the charging pin as well as the usb cable replaced, and no more charging problems. Good as new!
My phone isn't charging at all.
In an attempt to charge, I turned it off and plugged in the charger. The charging animation did come up bit it would keep on coming up (like it's in a loop) and my phone still won't actually charge.
PC wasn't recognizing the phone either. Was saying that the USB device is not recognized.
I tried pushing up the metal inside the USB slot too. Not working. Maybe I haven't done that correctly.
What exactly could be the issue? The fact that the screen shows the charging animation when phone is off makes me feel that the USB slot may not really be faulty. But even though the animation comes, it vanishes before it should be complete (ie it vanishes before the battery icon is filled with white) and starts the animation from the beginning.
For ****s, flash the stock image, but it really sounds like faulty.... Something, try other USB bricks and cables.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Tried different cables. It's the same.
I can't flash the factory image either but my battery is completely dead now and I need to charge it to boot the phone up. And to be honest, I don't think flashing stock will really help.
had this issue as well, ended up just getting a replacement. Figured it was hardware issue. couldn't ever get it fixed
Wow!! Suddenly everything is working. Just kept the phone idle in the drawer with the battery taken out for around 30 minutes. Connected the charger and it's working fine.
Even though is temporarily fixed. Its a USB port problem. Mine has the same. I just use an external charger.

The actual problem is the mid board. I had that same problem. what you need to do is get the mid board replace inside of the phone.

Had the same issue some days back... Some days it charged and some days it won't charge at all.. While it's off it says its charging but it actually isn't .. Did some reading n found out that the USB flex port was gone.. Replaced it and everything fine now...

How much does a USB flex port cost? I'll need it in case the problem occurs again.

Yep, I am facing the same and this issue seems to be going around even for Nexus 4. The problem lies around 4.3 update.

Try these steps but none of them help. The only way to charge your phone at the moment is to switch it off, wait a few seconds, connect charger and see that charging animation starts. Now you can switch on the phone and the phone almost everytime continues charging.
I have no idea what causes this and I hope someone can pin the fault somewhere...but no cigar so far.

I think the contrary. It is software issue. Nexus 4 users are worst effected by it. And no one seems to have a clue. Its just known that it is restricted to 4.3 only.
Can you link the Nexus 4 thread please?

There are half a dozen more and most of the people have given up.
I downgraded to 4.2.2 and still, the phone doesn't charge. Its a pain in the arse.
I guess I should just go back to 4.3 and wait for a fix since downgrading didn't fix the issue, this is a bummer to say the least
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
This may be a dumb question but would this have anything to do with not having the 4.3 boot loader??? I didn't install it, my understanding was it wasn't necessary on the Verizon gnex
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
OK update I flashed back to 4.3 and went into storage and unchecked "connect as media device” and so far it is charging OK from all sources, only problem I still have is the the charging indicator still flashes on and of when unplugged

OK here is an update, I have cleaned out my port with a small screwdriver from an eyeglass repair kit, used some compressed air and a little bit of electrical contact cleaner and gently raised up the charging port a bit ( to where it was originally, mine was bent down a bit ) and bam! So far its working again like a charm

Not sure what you think anyone here can do for you. It sounds buggered to me... How old is it? You're likely going to have to RMA it for a repair under warranty.
have you turned negative mode on, hold power for option to turn off
