I have a Galaxy Nexus

Hello again Everyone...
You might remember me from when I got a pre-release Galaxy S II and made some (admittedly terrible (sorry)) videos about it and answered as many questions as I could for you.
Well... now I have a Galaxy Nexus (which will definitely be launched on Thursday).
I'm suffering from jetlag and will probably be asleep soon - but I will do my best to answer any and all of your questions (forgive me if this turns out to be tomorrow morning).
Ask away and I'll get back to everyone if there's any interest!
Cheers,
Dom

How are you sure it will be launched Thursday?

more details, like to who, how do you know, links, yada yada...

Sorry to jump on you like this(as everyone else will), but I would really like to know about the sound quality in the phone. If you could just compare it to the S2 or any other phones you having lying around, that would be really great. Thanks a lot

in the UK, US, both???

Do you have the final version?
Please test and tell us about the battery life.
Thanks

I've seen a few comments on these but I would like to know what your opinion the screen brightness/visibility in sunlight, battery life (a more documented response would be great instead of all the vague "heavy use" battery reviews) and camera quality. I'm not hugely dependent on camera but my Droid Incredible really bothers me because the camera is very finicky in quality and performance. I know the GN is supposed to be almost instant picture capture but how does it handle moving objects (for example 90% of my pictures are fast moving pets/animals)?
I'll probably think of more questions later but I am trying to decide what to upgrade too since my D.Inc is probably not going to live much longer (R.I.P to my first Android phone).

I only know about the UK release on Thursday at Phones4U (more details here). It's an 8am ordeal - not sure why they're not doing one in the evening to be honest!

I emailed these people last week as they were showing in stock but they replied and said it was an error and changed the website. I posted about it in the other dock thread further down.
I'll email them again and see what the crack is.
Will you take some pictures and do a mini review when you get it as you might be the first person to have on?
Si

I think the people in the reverse engineering thread may want you too!

Yer it turns out the twats didn't really have it in stock. What a bunch of incompetent morons. Will write when it arrives, now going to be after the 31st
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

ive also been waiting for the dock to arrive from amazon - mines been on order for over 6 weeks now and was originally shown as instock, its rather annoying that htc always wait forever and a day to release accessories when they release new phones. Htc must loss a small fortune because of this, i gave up with an official case and went elsewhere - i wonder how many other people do the same.

Not being funny but what does this bar hold the device and pass through the USB?
For 50 quid I hope I'm missing something

[Q] Regarding HT/SH26 batch HOX

Hey members,
Greetings to ALL!!!!!!!
Has anyone got HOX from the latest batch, i.e HT26 or SH26....?
If so kindly reply me with the details of it, and if in case anyone facing issues
with the latest batch HOX, please mention that also.
It would be so helpful for me to get an issue free HOX...I hope so.

I hade 3 from ht261.
1- yellow spot.
2- Dead pixel.
3- dust under the screen.

Got a SH26RW today in exchange for my screen-rippled SH24MW. Was delivered a few minutes ago, not tested yet. I'll keep ya up to date...
:fingers-crossed:

I would say no difference to the previous batches. We have at work few different 23 batches xw, yw or something etc. And all have different issues (and some in common). I am not convinced by the 26 being perfect.
The build quality seems to be the same. Except its shipped with the latest .11 fw, but thats about it.
George down has it right.
I would say its either not depending on the batches. Or wait more

Well, just a little screen ripple in the right upper corner when pushing harder so nothing out of the ordinary. Sometimes the WiFi signal icon drops, but neither can I restore it by pushing the case nor do I notice any lags.. so not sure if it's the WiFi issue or some graphic bug..
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Edit:
The other one had that same WiFi icon issue btw...

Update:
Well screen ripple's pretty bad at both sides' very outer edges of the screen, in some positions effect reaches into the middle. Also there's some strangle loose, jiggle noise when pushing the back/home/recent button that's beyond normal vibration, but only when feedback is enabled (settings -> sounds -> vibrate feedback).
Btw got mine from amazon.de, and they offered me to return the first phone immediatly when I told them 'bout my screen ripple and either sent me a new batch One X.

I give up on the one x , it's lottery to get a good one , i thought most problems would be fixed with sh/ht26 :crying:

I almost feel the same right now... But on the other hand HTC promised us to deliver top quality handsets, I think I will take the challenge and bug them 'till I get a good One. :banghead:
Dunno what happened to their production sites, but seriously this HOX disaster is a shame for HTC...
My previous Desire HD I bought last September was so state-of-the-art although it wasn't the latest model, sad I sold it...

Which serial do you have?

I have an SH264 white and working perfectly.

My serial is HT24 but I was hoping to get a later one. I was assuming it would be issue free but I was wrong.

Sony Xperia A Rumours ...Thanks sony

http://www.xperiablog.net/2013/03/2...ul-sol22-gaga-to-launch-in-japan-this-summer/
Is Sony releasing a new flagship soon ? Why are they doing this so close to the release of the Z or will this be a toned down version of the Z and ZL ? Did we just get stabbed in the back?
What do you guys think?

Not surprise, those are the 2h flagship like how Sony has always been doing it. This is a rumour that it might launch in Japan around summer, I doubt we will be able to get our hands on it until late 2013.

+1. With a one-seg TV tuner built-in, I'm guessing this one will be a Japanese release only. Might see a variant late this year, but Xperiablog seems to think it will be a 720 display.. so I'm good with that.

I posted this same thing on the z form and that was one of the reason I was holding back on buying the zl. One rumor stats the "gaga" is a 5" zl like phone but with water proof and snapdragon 600 best of both worlds. But I bought the zl at 574 with lte couldnt resist. If gag comes out to be true to what is rumored ill definitely get it.

That's the one that I heard AT&T will pick up too. I just hope Sony doesn't release so many smart phone as they did in 2012 and can barely keep up with the update. It got so many people pissed off because they can't get the new update

Was anyone else sent a second Pixel 2 XL?

This may sound stupid but I just got another email from fedex saying another package from the same place my pixel came from same weight will be here tomorrow. Is something going on I didn't hear about or has anyone else been sent a second one?
I already checked and I was only billed for one so I am a bit confused on this one.

I'm pretty sure they accidentally sent you my phone. I've PM'd you my address - please drop it off at FedEx when you have time.
Thanks

Yeah which is why I am looking at the email and tracking number thinking how the hell did they do this one. Watch it will turn out to be a phantom order or some other nonsense

its probably a system error

Maybe it's the Google home mini?

But to get the mini you have to be sent a code via email then use it when checking out at the Google Store. Plus they're not supposed to send codes out until like 4-6 weeks to avoid people getting the mini and returning the phone, then keeping a free Home mini. I would hope OP would remember ordering the mini.
That'd be sweet if it was a second free phone, but likely just a duplicate notice from FedEx. So it's a different tracking number though?
