***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

I want my!!!

Still don't know why people are clamoring for Ice Cream Sandwich. I already posted, it didn't work too good on my Nook Color.

 

[Travillion]

Don't know if anyone has already posted this or not (as much as I try, I can't keep up...). I thought it was really helpful, though. It does a thorough comparison of the iphone 4S, G-Nex, and G-S2 screens. I don't like looking at weird screenshots, this was actually helpful to me in illustrating differences between the displays.

Was wondering what people are making of P3Droid's:


Is this something people have seen on other devices before, if so are there particular hardware issues / limitation that cause this sort of thing?

Welcome!

 

[TeeJ911]

Believe me, I want there to be hope of a preorder or release without an announcement.....but I have yet to see an example (with the excludion of feature phones like the G'Zone). I was hoping the fact that no PRs have been released today would mean something.


Verizon does have a history of officially announcing phones 1-3 days prior to release on phones where there isn't a preorder.

It is safe to say then that if within 1 hour Verizon does not make a press release everyone can go to bed at their normal time tonight By normal I mean the time you went to bed before this thread started.

For me that's only about 15 minutes earlier. Lol.

That's cause you didn't use the right kernel for it

Guys before we get all giddy I just got this from my VZW inside source

Too nerdy in here.

Nah! I feel like I finally found home.

I felt we did. We could do octal or decimal, if you prefer.

Could be worse. Could be base 36.

Welcome! It is a bit of a worry. Would Verizon completely disable hotspot functionality since they can't put their app on it? I am afraid if they could they would.

Kinda what I was wondering about... though perhaps someone who pays the $10 a month for tethering on VZW would know better, does Verizon have their own tethering app? I always assumed they just used the Android Os functionality.

Why do people who have info about a release or presale have to tweet cryptic messages?

On a more random note, I have a friend who is a CS major, and he can fluently covert ascii to hex. It is beyond absurd, but a good parlor trick.*

There's a red app on my ReZound called Mobile Hotspot and it's Verizon Bloatware

 

[RkyMtnTiger]

Just curious how many people here are developers and will be writing an application for your new GN?

My third hobby, outside of checking this website and college football, is brewing beer. I wrote a simple application for my OG last year. It was much easier than I ever imagined.

For wifi tethering they have their own app. It's not available in the market, so it has to come preloaded. But on the GNex it does not. That is a big question mark.

on a side note, hopefully this doesnt get lost in the thread of codes.... but does anyone have that link someone posted last night for a desktop shortcut to the newest post on the thread?
