New Galaxy Nexus owner

I upgraded to the Galaxy Nexus a little while ago and am officially decommissioning my Droid Incredible 2 (but I'll still keep it as a backup just in case). I won't have time to root it until this weekend, but once I do, I look forward to sharing my ROM flashing adventures with you guys. And with the sheer number of ROMs available for this device, it looks like I'll be in flashaholic heaven.

Quick question. I disabled Google books and Google earth, but they keep re-enabling themselves and reappearing in my app drawer. I thought disabling unwanted system apps was supposed to prevent this.

I noticed that when I first got the phone and was running a stock rom. Doesn't seem to be an issue when custom roms.
Also, if you haven't unlocked your bootloader yet, remember to back up the important stuff because it will wipe everything.

Get to rooting that phone, and being a part of the greatest android community!

Its been awhile

Man I haven't been on here in a while. Glad to see everyone still hanging around.
So I went off the deep in I let my wife use the Inc2. She traded it for a iPhone. So I was stuck using my BOLD. Well it made its way into the toilet. I then got a IPhone. Today I traded my IPhone 4 8gb for a mint condition Galaxy Nexus.
Haven't quite gotten use to the size yet. Haven't even got it rooted yet.
Just wanted to stop in and say why hello there.

Well if you want to relive the good 'ol days with your inc2, I'd be willing to trade you straight up for that nexus you have now...

So the verdict is in. I miss my inc2 guys. The nexus is a great device but I just can't get use to the size. I just don't know if I can give up 4g lol. Trying to find somebody local who might be interested in trading. (To the moderators. That was not me asking for trades on here.) I would do the marketplace on here but I don't have a get me by during shipping phone. If anybody knows anyone in the upstate sc area shoot me a pm.

I cane from an s2 and I feel the s3 is a much better phone, if you have extra money def worth it
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I miss my Amaze. That being said... it is taking some time for me to have the S3 feel like an extension of myself. The way my Amaze did. I honestly don't miss this phone when I leave it at home or in the car. Plus the whole issue with not being able to move apps to the external sd (grrrr)!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Yeah, the question wasn't if it's cooler, it was if it's worth it.
I mean, don't be blind, you add so and so money and you get less than so and so value. That was my intention. To tell the truth.
It is cooler, but it's more breakable, my phone has similar features, bla bla bla.
Don't get all "Appley" on me but with Samsung, it's also wrong to be blinded by one company... Even if it's not Apple...
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

Absolutely I think its worth it! I was skeptical because I loved my old htc, but I am so glad I moved up to the GS3.
If it were me looking for a new device, I would check out the Note 2 before making a decision. I think itll be out soon.

Moved to the S3 from the s2, and I'm loving it, and my sister got my old phone. Wins for both of us.

Best phone I over owned and I have owned just about every one of the heavy hitters.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

YES! Im coming from an S2 that was running Jedi Mind tricks rom, and i loved it, but my S3 was pretty much perfect out the box. havent had a problem yet which is why im not in any rush to root and throw a rom on it yet.

Can't go wrong with this phone!
Apsolutely worth it. The S3 is the best smarty phone I've ever had! I just paid $177. to have my screen repaired after I dropped and cracked it. I love this device. Love it.
Did I mention how much I love it?

Well I came from the Gnex and I really like this phone. Touchwiz wasn't too bad but I needed that AOSP back. After flashing Paranoid Android I'm loving this phone a little more than my Gnex. It was with the switch to me. Don't get me wrong though, having the nexus was awesome!

+1. Got the S3 and slapped ParanoidAndroid on it with faux's Ultimate kernel. Hybrid mode on the size of this screen is wonderful. With the dual core S4, and PA with faux's kernel, I can't think of a better phone to have right now.

hmm why not get the Nexus 4? You can start purchase on 13th Nov.
Samsung Nexus is also super freaking cool and you will love it once you start fiddling with it. Good luck.

And for that reason you chose to buy a phone that's a year old instead? Even though the Nexus 4 is getting great reviews from the people who have used it?
Wow.

Jesus Christ guys. Its his money, if he wants to get the GN then congratulate him and move on.
Enjoy the phone man, it may be a year old but its still awesome. Hope you like it.

Geez I'm surprised to see people pushing their opinions on others. Don't listen, Gnex is a great device!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

it would have been better to wait for the n4 imo.. but the gnex is a awesome phone with alot of development so i am sure you will like it

Congrats for the phone. I myself jumped to the wagon of galaxy S2 a year later when s3 was just around the corner. I didn't regret a bit. Same now with galaxy nexus.. Not regretting it a bit.. Got it a fortnight ago. The ready baked development and mature kernels trump it all. Enjoy your phone

Perfect decision :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Just to know you are not alone, I got my GNex yesterday. Upgraded from my Epic. I didn't want to leave Sprint, so no N4 for me. Decided to save my upgrade for next year and buy a used Gnex off eBay. Infinitely better than my Epic and probably good enough to last me another year.
Jason

I'd prefer this phone over the n4 personally..
ignore all the hate! welcome to the forums

While I would have waited for the N4, don't worry because the Gnex kicks serious ass anyway. A lot of Gnex owners including myself aren't upgrading because the Gnex is a beast!

I'm planning to do the same. Do you think the price will go down when the N4 is released? Really low on money but I just can't take this X2 still on Gingerbread.
Sent from my MB870 using xda app-developers app

Again, you are not alone. I also jumped on this ship. Snatched a Gnex on Ebay for US$232.00 shipped. Great deal. In my case, right now i can't afford the Nexus 4 because spending US$300.00 is out of my reach. Simple as that. And even if i could spend USD$300.00, i would still consider the Gnex over the Nexus 4 because of the storage. 8Gb is waaay to low. 16gb is already low, but i think i can make it with it, but 8gb is out of the question. Not to mention that Play Store doesn't sell devices on my country, but i still wanted a Nexus device for the updates and the optimized software, so this was my only option. Im coming from a AT&T SG2. Great device but not a Nexus.

Goodbye DINC2

I have said a sad goodbye to this great DINC2 smartphone (and my Acer Iconia A500 tablet) Going to a Samsung galaxy 2 Note for all my needs. Anyone interested in a great condition DINC2 with lots of accessories. Please PM me

No. The G2N is big enough for all my needs. Sold the tablet and the DINC2 on ebay, got enough to pay for the G2N..

Been 2 weeks now. The SGN2 is just great. Rooted with the Jellybeans Build 16 ROM. Everything works!! Smooth, incredibly fast, great battery life even with the large screen and giant processor. 4LTE is just great! Didn't even cost me anything. Sold the DINC2 and the Iconia A500, paid for the Samsung. Verizon monthly is the same as before.
ROM development for this phone is very good because it started life as a Jellybean phone, so no porting necessary..

Miss my Dinc2... Not really. Been 3 weeks. I dumped big red and got An ATt Galaxy S4. Love it.

Yeah I got this one before they announced the Google S4 variant. Kicking myself a little bit, but my Dinc2 was already on life support. So it was necessary at the time.
I just can't wait to flash good ROMs after the Google one comes out.

Why did you pick the inc over the razr? The razr just seems better in all ways.

I don't know man there was just something about it. It was extremely slippery to hold and I am not a case person. The screen scratched very easy and I carry it in my pocket. The phone would lag extremely bad and would glitch from time to time. I was always having to transfer downloads from internal to sdcard. Just wasn't my cup of tea. Honsestly I havent really ever been a moto fan.
