welcome to the club
been using this device for about a month now. have ordered extended battery and waiting for delivery to pimp my gnex!

Just got mine yesterday. Got tired of Sprints 1X and getting used to my NEW 4G. I had the SSG2 Epic Touch 4G, so I had a great phone.
Went from about 200-500 kbps (500 on a great day) to today at 14,000-20,000 kbps. Eff Sprint!
You all will be seeing a lot of me. Hope I can be of help to some.
PS. Welcome OP.

Hi I'm going to purchase a gnez

What I am wondering is, I would like to go to Verizon to get the 4g lte and enjoy my nez to the full potential, although I think that development isn't moving along a due to lack of support or lack of gsm. If I buy a gnez for Verizon will I bee missing out on movement?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Gnex.
And lack of development?
I've seen more CDMA (Verizon) only roms than visa-versa.
And there are only a couple.
You're not going to miss anything.

Great new guys go to wirefly to get your gnez
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Did you guys ever visit elect-band.com to buy a Gnez?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

its GNex not Gnez... but I prefer calling it GN.

I have the Google Nexus GSM and I'm very happy with it. Please remember that the Nexus family is a Developers family (although any user could work with it) applying custom ROMS is very easy and can be done in a lot of ways since the phone was made to be tempered with.
The community for custom ROMS and android development is very active for the phone you are about to admire and cherish.
some note for you:
Install an app that disables the 4g when the phone sits in your pocket... some people around here noticed the batery drains very fast when you leave 4g on in your pocket!
but to be honest. I life in the Netherlands and we haven't got 4G over here... even 3G loads websites, music and movies amazingly fast. as for browsing you could use Chrome which is released for android 4.0 users.
Hop on and enjoy the ride with nexus!

Would you trust the website I mentioned to buy a almost new gnez for almost 215 dollars or does if come off like a rip off?

Huh? Wirefly has it for $79.99 if you're starting a new contract. Any other place buying it used, that's up to you to decide.
And for Christ's sake its a Galaxy Nexus, not a Galaxy Nezus.

I'm trying to go month to month so I can end service and reactivate when necessary, any body got a good shot to shoot at this?

Well buy it used anywhere you want and make sure the ESN is clean. Then just go activate it with Verizon month to month.

Don't go to elec-band.com, they are rip-off artists

Hey look I was just looking over the ROM lists for the gsm and lte versions, and it seems the lte version had less roms, is that because of the Verizon network?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

No, thats because the gsm version has been around for a few months now and the lte verdion was just recently released to the market

I'll have to disagree here. I believe the difference comes down to market penetration.
GSM = World phone (anyone worldwide)
LTE = Verizon customers only.
The more phones out there, the more developers will work with that phone.

Just checked and yes... sorry.
Then my guess would be that you guys in US have 4g networks together with switserland and just a handfull of other countries. So the only roms floating around would come from these places.
I could buy an lte device in the Netherlands using ebay or so but there would be no way to go beyond 3g around here for me. And going to switserland to check my mail lightning fast would mean that i had to drive there and pay €5,- (± $7,-) for every downloaded/uploaded MB...

[Sprint]MMS stuck on "Downloading" fix.

I thought I would share this since the problem is widespread. You might want to inform other Sprint users on other devices.
If you get texted a picture and the picture never comes this is what you can do.
1. Open "Settings" in the messaging app.
2. Turn off "Auto Retrieve".
3. Select the message that has the pic that won't come through.
4. Click "Download". Wait for a second while it downloads the picture.
5. Now turn back on "Auto Retrieve".
Hopefully Sprint will get this issue fixed.

Just checked this on VZW as well and it works. Thanks for the info

Bump.
Am I the only mofo this doesn't work for?
FFUUUUDDDGGGEE!!

I am on WindMobile, and this workst great for me, so i do not think it is a carrier related, may be it is Android Related.

This is a good find. Next time this comes up I'm giving it a shot.
This could be an issue with CDMA networks vice Android, unless some GSM users come in and report the same problem.

Galaxy s3 or Galaxy Nexus

I have somebody offering to trade a new Nexus plus 100 for my Galaxy s3. I don't know much about the nexus so could somebody point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_nexus-4219.php

maybe $150-200

Root install cm10 or aokp. And poof you have a better nexus for free......send me some money
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium

Thanks for the the sight on the nexus. But in your opinion which is the better phone for medium user. Surfing the web, text, YouTube and email. Battery life means a lot can't get around a charge for most of the day.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

for a medium user... battery life is best.. so s3

Never used a nexus, so i couldn't objectively compare battery life. But i get moderate to good use daily from my s3. For example, today I've got almost 5hrs if screen time, but a lot of that is on wifi, only a small amount of mobiledata and an hour and a half phone of calls

SIII
SIII is better IMO. my GF have the Nexus and it is a great phone, but to me the SIII is more phone.

I am just unsure my wife has a galaxy note and when I was comparing my s3 opens apps faster but when I hit the home button hers is fast at getting back to the home screen. Could there be something wrong with my s3?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

I'd say keep your SIII. The hardware is more powerful plus like paniro already mentioned you can root it and install cm10 or AOKP on it and you have stock android but with the more powerful hardware. Plus if you ever want to go back to stock Touchwiz you can still do so.

that is because it's waiting for a second press to initiate s voice, it's totally normal. You use to be able to fix this by disabling s voice but I don't think it works anymore (don't quote me on that). there are apps that allow you to re map keys and I think this circumvents the lag "issue" but it doesn't bother me so I never tried it.
Op- keep the s3, the only thing nexus had going for it is jb... which we unofficially have now.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium

Keep your s3....We will see a new nexus later this year anyway.

Have never rooted is it hard and can you get it back to stock for warranty claims.

It's not difficult, just read read read, and read some more. There are stickies and guides galore. And yes you can return to stock fairly easily via Odin.

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
