Anyone notice the absence of HDR in the camera from the new OTA update?
What's up with that?

thats crap......HDR is 100% software. I have faith in the devs to bring it to custom ROM's.
I wouldn't really use it...its not new technology any more. but it would still be nice to have.
Would be awesome to have single shot HDR capability

I hear people says that a file called libmmcamera_hdr_lib.so is needed is order to enable the HDR feature.
I wish I could help, but I've got a nexus 4 now and the option is right there.

Yeah, adding the lib won't enable hdr tho.
Lucky guy, but Nexus 4 is not my kind, so I will not buy that phone only for a single exclusive feature.

Won't happen.
You need at least 3 shots to make a HDR image and they usually look like a vomit of colours.
The more shots of different exposures the better of course.
Guys, I hear a person in Android Central saying that we can decompile the GalleryGoogle.apk, find res/values/strings.xml and change
<string name="pref_camera_hdr_default">@string/setting_off_value</string> to
<string name="pref_camera_hdr_default">@string/setting_on_value</string> to enable the HDR, I try it, but I can not recompile it back so I can't see if this works.

Why it I'd so hard to just simply enable a function in an app. I know my hardware is OK.

I just bought this phone and I was wondering the same thing, it shouldn't be that difficult. There are third party apps that already do this in every phone so it must be a software thing. I have no idea of developing so this is just my opinion based on common sense and complete ignorance of the matter.

Like the title says does anyone know of a alternative app to screencast it seems like it is taking them forever to make it work on our Gnex?

Yes that ability to make a recording
Screencast
According to the developers, the GNex is at the top of their list for updates. However, you are right that it is taking forever. I too, would like to know if there is anything else out there to use.
wow ... so far nothing on screencast and Galaxy Nexus? This is taking forever!

It sucks that it's taking so long. I bought a screencast app that works on my old HTC Desire for when I need to record things, hopefully one comes up soon.
Its September technically the end of the year. And the developers have had the Galaxy Nexus on their "top" priority since last 2011. I wonder what's taking them this long? Is it impossible? Instead of keeping us waiting for a fix why not tell us that it isn't possible.

I can not find the right type of app that will record my call I have tried everything switching roms switching kernels what's wrong? My sensation would record like a champ.

Anyone? This is the one thing that has disappointed me with the gnex
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Your Sensation could do it because the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset supported it in both the hardware and software. I'm not sure if there Galaxy Nexus can do it.
Since it's basically illegal to record another person (the one on the other end of the call?) without thier implicit (written) permission, yea, I could see how you might be having trouble finding an app for it.

No, it's possible to record calls. My old RAZR V3 I think could do it. It's not illegal in all states.
I didn't ask for the legalities of the haha and I know of many apps that do it. For one Google voice.
I just see other gnex owners being able to do this and I'm just wondering why I can't get it to work

Yes, there is an app. Look for CallRecorder by skvalex in the play store. It is a little pricey, but it works great.

Dude is a troll plain and simple. His replies betray his genuineness .
meanwhile, trolls aside, I really don't understand how Apple won the injunction with the overwhelming prior art of Google Desktop Search [released Oct 2004] and (I really dislike using this as an example of anything, but it applies) BonziBUDDY [released 1999].
to lesser extents, we have:
ISYS
- prototyped as "Homer" in 1987
- released in 1988
---- was actually a tool to search documents and databases on a private network, searched locally as well
Copernic Search
- released in 1996
---- web multi-search tool, local search functions added well before iPhone (I don't remember when though)
Microsoft Actors/Agents
- released originally as MS Bob in Mar 1995
Windows Desktop Search
- as of v4, included with WinVista, RTM Nov, 2006

Im not trying to troll, however i do agree i sounded a little trolly.
Im just pissed at Google for caving into Apple.
I own SGSII, i bought a SGSIII for my wife.
I just updated the Starbucks app, and now they have a widget. I LOVE WIDGETS. The iphone doesn't have widgets. So it would be crazy for me to wanna buy an iphone. Just a little angry, that's all. See, i still want to get ME my SGSIII the pebble while my wife has the white.
You think its a little wishful thinking if this is only a temporary thing?
