Develop Bugs

Too late to buy this?

I'm considering buying the Nexus now that it is 400 dollars but I'm not sure if I should wait for the next best phone. Suggestions?
Edit: I'm concerned that I will get a phone that has banding issues/purple tint. I've read a ton of threads about this issue and it is concerning.

A lot of us here will tell you that the next best phone won't happen until the next nexus and none of us know when that'll be as there hasn't been any formal announcement.
I've got my galaxy nexus a little less than a month ago and I have no regrets.

You could pretty safely buy this for $399 and hold onto it for the next Nexus. The resale price won't be much lower. Or just hold onto the GNex why not.

Got my nexus 4 days ago, and I'm really glad i chose this phone. Haven't experienced any lag yet, and I have been running the most heavy 3D games available for android.. so you should definitely not be concerned about performance.
It's also easy to root, there's lots of development going on, it has a big super amoled hd display etc.. this phone will also be getting android jellybean when it's released.
Yes, there is several phones getting higher scores than the nexus in benchmarks, but performance-wise, there's actually not many areas where this phone could be improved. I don't really see the need of quad-core cpu's yet.
So, yea... I totally recommend you this phone!
edit: If camera is one of the most important things you're looking for in a smartphone, this phone's probably not for you... personally I take like 2-10 pictures a week .. so I really don't care about the cam..

It really depends on what you use the phone for. Do you watch movies more than you take pictures? Do you use the speaker to listen to music? That's just two of many factors you have to look at. Do you root and flash roms? Overall this phone is a good device should you over for some time. I for one get tired of phones and have to change every 5-6 months. I love the gnex but I think the camera and speaker volume could be better.

The speaker problem can be fixed with apps like Volume+, after installed it my speaker is quite loud. But the camera is really a concern.
I recommend this phone for almost everyone, the only exception is if you really need a good camera on the phone. This camera is average at best.
That said, I would buy this phone again today. The One X is really a temptation, but I know that being an Android geek that loves updated software I would regret to buy a not Nexus device. Did this 2 times and it was a pain in the ass, now I just buy phones from the Nexus line.

I am kind of in the same boat, lol. I just got the HTC One S, tho. I would like to switch to verizon for coverage reasons, but there seem to be issues with the 4G/3G connections. I played with one at the verizon store by my apartment, and it had a lot of issues. And I have read about the problems with data dropping, which it seemed to be doing at the store. I also love the loudness and clarity of the speaker on my one s. The one s camera has some fun things to it, tho. However I generally turn the pixel size down to under 5M anyway. Good luck with your decision. Maybe I will get the HSPA+ one and sell whichever one I don't like later.

I think I would miss having the MicroSD slot (even though I don't really use it). I don't have LTE in my area so that isn't really an issue for me. I'm slightly nervous about the display. I've read a lot about the banding issue that a lot of people have as well as the purple tint that others have. The prospect of fast updates sounds good (still waiting for ICS for my skyrocket...) but I'm not sure how much I really want the nexus.

The next best android phone comes out way too frequently. I personally wouldn't use this as a deciding factor. Do you like the gnex or not? Does it have features that will satisfy you? Does it have the community support that you want or need?

Day 2 with the Nexus. Only issue I have found is the signal. Love it besides that!

Just got my Sprint Nexus on Sunday and so far I'm psyched about it. I wanted a sexy looking device along with performance and the SG3/EVO LTE didn't have the look factor I wanted. I can sacrifice .2 ghz of a processor and don't find the camera all that bad on the Nexus. Plus Sprint was giving me 70 bucks for my Evo and 50 bucks through Google Wallet. So technically, after all is said and done, I'd pay $70 for the Nexus.

Sold my HTC inspire for $250 Bought my Nexus for 200 I made 50 bucks

honastly you cannot go wrong with this phone, I love the freedom that it has provided to me with being a pentaband phone. You will always be waiting for the next best phone. Unless your looking forward to all the graphicly intense games in the pipline for tegra 3.
But if your a normal user IE social networking, email, music streaming, and casual gaming. This phone should not disappoint, look at it this way.
if your picking this up now, for cheap I can only imagine what next years nexus will be priced at around this time next year.

Will try that soon. I have been reading up on how to root/unlock this phone. Came from the revolution and got this phone as a replacement after 4 revos.

A nexus always has the latest OS and the Galaxy Nexus has few bugs... You really can't beat this device. The HTC One X is a bit better, but it will always be on par or behind on upgrades. So, if you upgrade every year, sure wait.... If you upgrade every 2, then go with Nexus, it'll take longer for it to feel like an old device due to quicker software updates.

I bought mine a week ago. No regrets. I spent a year on Windows Phone and couldn't have asked for a better way to cone back to Android.
I'd heard some complaints about they camera, but mine is very good. I do have the international version. No blurriness or off colors.
The phone is fast. Nothing else to say about it. No lagging or stuttering, fast app switching, beautiful screen. I noticed pixels on the Galaxy S Pentile display, but this one is beautiful.
Oh yea, I've left the phone stock. I'm sure I'll mod it in the future, but right now I haven't found a reason to. It runs exactly how I want it to.
I say buy the phone.

[Q] Should I buy this phone this time as N4 is just coming

Should I buy the Samsung galaxy nexus , instead of N4 which will arrive now . I only dont like N4 having unremovalbe battery and a glass at back which will surely break when i will drop it. Though N4 will be great in terms of performance.

if you live somewhere where play store is available wait for the n4, if you live somewhere where play store is not available buy the gnex < this suggestion is if price matters to you cuz places where there is no play store will be paying double the price..
if price doesnt matter wait for the n4 and buy it, its alot better than the gnex.. the non-removable battery is not that big of a deal and put a case on if you are worried about the glass back

I would choose the Gnexus
Hey rohit_nikalje,
Ok, I have a Galaxy Nexus and I am pleased with it's performance and such from what I have read. Now with my Galaxy Nexus it is rooted and running AOKP jb milestone 1 and I am very pleased but lets not get side tracked here. I would buy the Galaxy Nexus firstly because me personally like Samsung better than LG. I reckon Google should of stuck making phones with Samsung but that is none of my business. I have had a great experience with my Google Nexus S which is made by Samsung and now a even better experience with my Galaxy Nexus. I'm not saying LG is bad but just saying that I personally like Samsung is better. Me personally would buy the Galaxy Nexus even though the the Nexus 4 is a new smartphone and better in general. Although I do wish that the Galaxy Nexus would get jb 4.2. I hope that is enough and that you now what I would do.
Regards,
UselessSniper001

Look at the phones Samsung has out right now then compare them to anything LG has ever released.
Samsung > LG
Skip N4 and avoid headaches.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Honestly, just wait a bit for the N4 to get released and see if theirs any major issues.
Just because its made by LG doesn't mean samsung's Gnex is better, BUT it is because its made by LG that doesn't give assurance thhat it will be a good phone.
I got my Gnex a month ago and honestly i like the N4. Gnex's battery life is horrible.
If you really don't want to wait and see reviews, I would get the N4 only because google is advertising that the Nexus family consist of the N4,N7, and N10. They even removed the Gnex off Play.
This is all assuming you are not buying a 2 year contract.
Buy a gnex off ebay for 200 and wait for something better.

Extended OEM battery makes my phone last 12 hours with 5 - 6 hours screen on time with heavy usage. It works for me.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Seeing that the N4 doesn't have LTE I would totally jump on the GNEX bandwagon. I love my GNEX and with LTE it has no issues. With all that being said I would totally recommend just going with the GNEX, I would try to avoid a contract if possible though.

Oh I will be getting this bad boy:laugh: See where I live Canada Toronto to be precise.. LTE Is a non factor for me! Never owned Lg phone before. So can not say for sure how there quality of phones are.. I just like the fact Google decided to beef up it's hardware:highfive: But they did keep the roundness of Gnexus:highfive: The Lg Optimus G looks to square for my taste!! I still have my Gnexus But it's starting to show wear and tear. I've had it since launch day dec 18 of last year.. And besides I could buy right from Google $359.00:good: My Gnexus was from bell $762.00 :crying:the only carrier at that time when released!! And the Price much better.. I can't go on everybody's take on what the phone will look or act like!! I use my phone differently than the next man... BTW The majority of complaints of I've heard. the lack of LTE SDcard More Storage Really Now Since the first Nexus. Yes it did have an expandable Sd card slot:good: But Since the Nexus S it STOPPED!! There CHOICE!!! And I can't seeing it happening Again anytime soon! even with all The Moaning and Griping about it. Gonna enjoy the rest of my coffee Getting cold..

[Q] thinking of getting a Galaxy Nexus. currently Own A G2X

I own a G2X, and have an offer on a unlocked Galaxy Nexus for 280 with spare batteries. i am looking to upgrade for 2 reasons,
1. NFC
2.software updates (if anyone follows the P999, we are stuck on GB, and no ics/jb is coming)
the G2X is a dual core tegra 2. how does this guy stand up against my current phone in speed? also is this worth it? will i notice a diffrence in performance?
its either i get this phone or but a laptop...

Just did the same move myself. Came from P990 and have a Nexus now. Don't regret my move. The Nexus is a good device, the screen is bigger and stock android is slightly faster then cm9 on P990. (But also on the Nexus, stock 4.2, I notice a little lag sometimes, damn you android!)
280, dollar or euro?, isn't expensive, but are you going to buy it new or second hand? I paid 300 euro for mine, new, one month ago.

Software updates shouldn't even be a question for this phone. It'll always be up to date for at least 2 more years.

Surely the Nexus 4 is the better choice now?

it is, if it was available lol.
.

Did the same move about 8 months ago. My G2x was a POS even though I bought it new. I had a super buggy one the rebooted itself at random no matter what I did. The only good thing to come from owning that phone was that I learned about XDA, rooting, custom roms, etc, to try and make that phone stable. I also learned that I should have bought a Nexus instead.
My advice......get a Nexus.....ANY Nexus...a G-Nex or a Nexus 4. You will be much happier!

Just wait for the Nexus 4 to become readily available. It's not worth it going with 2 year old tech.

I've owned both, and the Gnex is much better. G2X will never get another update, and this one will get several more. If you can hold out until the N4 is available, it's probably a better choice, but if you have to make the move now, Gnex is a solid upgrade from what you have.

280 is a lot for a used galaxy nexus. You can buy them for 250 and lower on the market place. A couple sold for 230 last I checked. I also had the g2x and the nexus blows away the phone. Software wise this thing is amazing. It also looks nicer than the g2x. Don't regret buying this phone and I had it for about 4 months and paid full price

Get Samsung galaxy nexus for wife or not?

My wife got her first smartphone about 8 months ago. got the samsung stratosphere. had it for about 2 months until I got the samsung galaxy S3 at which point she wanted my rooted thunderbolt. The thunderbolt has gotten very laggy no matter which Rom I throw on there. CleanRom worked well for about a week and then it started its usual lack of performance. When I first got it, it was snappy, quick and smooth. Now it just isn't and i dont know why since I'm doing a clean factory wipe with CWM. She is getting tired of me tinkering around with it trying to get it to perform well. Wants a new phone and is thinking the incredible 4g, razr M or the samsung galaxy nexus.
wanted to see what people thought, who have the galaxy nexus. Would you recommend it again or would you rather go with a newer phone like the Dinc 4g or razr m?

No regrets here. You can never go wrong with Pure Google, and with third-party ROMs you always have the latest Android version before, well especially before the Dinc 4G or RAZR M.
I wouldn't say there's much difference between 5MP and 8MP, and the only reason I'd go for either of the other two phones is for SD storage, which even now I'm losing interest in, but it's nice to have that stuff somewhere separate from the phone.
Plus, I am pretty sure the GalNex is the cheapest, on or off contract..
As far as famous issues go, no inductive charging (come on even the Thunderbolt had that), Micro USB port tends to fail, but that's kind of an all-phone sort of thing IMO, and of course AMOLED screen burn-in. All are nominal issues considering they happen typically after at least a year of use.
My 2.
Good luck!

I had the g2 then the g2x and now the gnex. I personally think this is still one of the best phone around, hands down. Direct Google updates, unlocked (can use any gsm carrier prepaid or postpaid), great screen and decent pics. The developer support will be continuous until the hardware can no longer support the os. Money wise, its the cheapest high end smart phone you can get, period (and I don't think this phone is "cheap", its hardware is great and handles everything I throw at it).
*** edit ***
I noticed your on Verizon, slow updates through Verizon, but the development community will provide those... Plus you can get a 32gb as compared to the gsm 16gb.

For something that "just works" with minimal effort the iDerp is the way to go.

Android can be laggy when "external" SD Card memory size is full, e.g. if 16GB SD Card have only 1GB free memory. makes Android slower..
by doing full Wipe, data factory reset then it should be much faster..
Galaxy Nexus's battery life is not so good so it's better to use older Android phone if wants phone with good battery life...

I'll put it like this. i have had several phones of all brands and companies i just had the nexus 4 sold it. i have the s3.it sits on my desk. The note 2 is hooked to a TV in the guest room for streaming. all the phones I have and have i come back to the nexus. i chose to make it my main driver. i don't even swap sims anymore. Galaxy nexus just works. and we have great devs that make things work even better. and help out. do that on a iPhone. also as
Sd storage is a thing of the past. cloud storage is here.. and it's fast. Anyway nexus gsm with a year straight talk plan works fine for me.. well great actually.. even with Verizon i wouldn't get any other phone. especially since i seen in my area Verizon offering then free or 50 bucks on contract.. roll with it.

The op asked, i gave my answer. Ya give her an iphone and then nobody here will be tempted to screw with it and mess it up. All her friends will say "Oh it's an iphone, how nice!". Otherwise let her shop for an android phone and pick out what she wants, all the top phones are pretty solid. Obviously the s3 is the hot phone now, but for some it's a little large.

She has the Thunderbolt? Good god, man. You're just asking for all kinds of trouble there. You don't give a woman a Thunderbolt. Even men can't stand that phone.
For a woman, you need a trouble-free phone like the:
-Galaxy S3
-Galaxy Note 2 (women actually like it a lot and have more reason to use it because they carry a purse or bag)
-iPhone 5
-Nokia Lumia 920
Seriously. These are the only phones women actually enjoy using. The Nexus is great but its more for geeks than ladies.

Get her a white Gnex, turn it into a takju with a clean flash of the 4.2.1 factory image and you're good to go. Hassle free stock software from then on...

She's going to complain about the battery life. He should NOT get the Nexus for a woman. I'm being serious here. The other phones I suggested are much better for a woman. You guys keep assuming that women will like what you like. They don't. They're very different. You don't give a woman a phone with any big flaws, and the big flaw with the Galaxy Nexus is battery life.

I say get her the Galaxy Note2 my wife saw it the other day and was like damn I should've waited and got that instead of the iPhone(she got her iPhone a week before note 2 came out)

Yep. Women love the Galaxy Note 2 more than men do, seemingly. It's like the size of a paperback book or personal organizer that women carry around in their purse. If they can do everything on a device like that, they're happy, and the battery life on it is amazing.
Hell, I'm probably going to get the Galaxy Note 3 next year if Google screws up again and makes yet another glass-backed Nexus phone.

thank you all for the replies. I was not expecting for there to be so many just night.
The other thing I needed to mention is that she does NOT want to spend much. I would love her to have the S3 like I do but she wont spend the money to get it. This is why she was looking into the incredible 4g or moto razr m. both are $49 currently.

If money eliminates the note2, go with the nexus. I got it cheap and got the Samsung extended battery. I have no problem getting almost a full day with moderate usage. If I am at work, it goes in airplane mode between breaks. After work I still have almost a full charge. And the phone charges FAST! I have no complaints. With 2 GS2's and a GS3 in the family, my gnex still has the best performance and least issues of all.

On the subject of battery life I'm going to add that my stock battery gsm gnex gets better battery life than any android phone I've previously owned or handled.
But based on the reports of battery life with lte I would possibly agree with cadude the Verizon nexus might not be the best choice. I don't know though, maybe it's no different than any other lte equipped phone. I've always used gsm.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I bought GNex for my girlfriend and she loves it. Stock Android is rock stable and super fast. She won't change it for any other phone. Until I get her Nexus 4, maybe?

If you hated the battery life on the Bolt you will hate the VZW Galaxy Nexus more. I went from one to the other last year and u was surprised, I though the bolt had the worst battery of them all.
Otherwise here's my .02 -
If you want to extend/new contract - you cannot go wrong with an S3. Great battery life, expandable memory and Touchwiz 's no tinkering to get great features aspect are great selling points to people who don't want to tinker with the phone.. My wife is a perfect example Lol. Not to mention the camera is 2nd to none on android devices now.
If you don't want a contract I would get a used VZW Nexus. Deal with the battery for a great price.
If your wife wants a smaller device - get the RAZR M. Its quite an amazing little device. All the power/specs of the S3 in a handy little package. I've heard it has great battery too

Ok so you're on Verizon. Trust me, a Galaxy Nexus on Verizon is TERRIBLE. You simply do NOT want that phone. She will definitely complain about the battery because the LTE drains even more on a Verizon Gnex than a GSM Gnex.
Good news for you though! You can upgrade on your Verizon account with Amazon Wireless, and they'll give you another Samsung Galaxy S3 for $99.99 which isn't much more than 50 bucks and the same price as the Verizon Gnex from the Verizon store.

Should I buy Nexus 5X or just go with a Nexus 5?

Okay, this may seem like a ridiculous question for tech people who love the latest and greatest, but I am trying to decide if the Nexus 5X is worth the extra money. I've been dragging along my Galaxy S5 as far as I can and now it is time to move on. I realize that the Nexus 5 is two years old, but all the reviews I read indicate that it performs just as well as the new 5X. I can get a 5 for around $125 new or $100 refurbished. That is a big difference to jump to $400. I do not play games on my phone. Just pictures, videos, work emails, and calls of course.
I did read that the Nexus 5 battery life was dreadful. That might be enough to push me to the 5X.
Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you.

I've never used the Nexus 5 but it looks like a solid phone and all you really need out of a phone.. But it's not supported by verizon so I got a 5x and I am happy with it. 250 new on eBay...

400 usd? I bought mine 250 euro so it should not be hard to find it for 300 usd. In any case, i would say that s5 is a fine phone if you put a custom rom which would be the cheapest solution.
For your kind of use any phone should keep you at least a day, 5x certainly will. That is if you dont have an app get bugged and drain your battery, but i imagine you know how to fix such issues if you are android user for more than a week
That being said, i would go for 5x if you dont want s5 and you find it cheaper. Its not the best phone in the world but it comes close, its stable, fast, gets plenty of support both from google and the wonderful devs here in xda, has most of essential features and some "futuristic" ones. It has its drawbacks too but they are not even worth to mention if you compare it to similar priced phones and imo its the best all rounder one could ask

Coming off a Galaxy S5, the 5x is a very nice improvement. I think you ought to do some more shopping. I bought mine from Project Fi for $260, then activated on Verizon. But $260-ish isn't that hard to find.

Check swappa. I have a 5X on the way I paid $265 for, albeit used. Just a thought

That is a fact. If you can stay plugged in the most part of the day you might be OK. But used means the battery is probably even worse than new. I'd get the 5x new.
