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

[altimax98]

Went into another Radio Shack to see if i can atleast demo a SGN just to play with. Turns out the lady was willing to sell me one. End result, I didn't get it, said its on hold till Thursday. Cool beans! Now then onto the weird part.


Upon boot-up the device came across what seemed like a recovery loader screen with the green android character, with the words "downloading, do not turn off target!".

I've done my share of flashing, bricking, updating, etc, but does anyone have any idea what im talking about/seen this? I snapped a picture of it on my gf's phone so I'm waiting on her to send it to me. Does this mean the recovery portion of the phone has access to the cell's data/wifi connection?

That is a OTA installing

i doubt it has cell or wifi connections. it was probably downloading from /sdcard to /data for flash

Night m1scr3ant!



I have lots of pics in that thread.

Oh BB...you and I would get along famously...I can give you a few website secrets if you like. I currently have a collection of about 175+- pairs, and I love every one...

Ahh...this could be why we have more success with mentioning 3g to 4g promo aspect only. May be for lots of regions, but be different code for each region.

CH4GNE (NorthEast?)
CH4GE (East?)
CH4NE2 (NorthEast2 or new every 2?)

would be interesting to gather all of these to find the pattern...

So....anyone think I should be nervous about the fact that they removed double data from the homepage?

It still applies for now... but 8 minutes from now?.....

Haha, I am chatting live with a CSR and I am totally spamming them by mistake, I feel so bad!

 

[brent_strong]

Does this $100 apply to full retail price?

 

[scottg96]

Trying to resist hanging out on the poop salad page to see if a CSR shows up

You: Yes, I'd like to order your phone named Poop Salad.
CSR: We do not carry such a phone.
You: *link* I'm afraid you are incorrect.
CSR: WAT?!

 

[EarlyMon]

Spose if we get to 100k posts he is a shoe-in for President?

President of the Navy? You bet!

Shut your mouth! Just talkin' 'bout Steven. Da da da dhun, da da dhun...

Anyone who cant get the $100 off, just call verizon and ask for the loyalty department, they are in charge of the promotions. I finally got to speak to someone over there, and she gave me it right away.

even if that may be photochopped, i lol'd hard

 

[Jon Nale]

BREAKING EPIC EPIC EPIC WIN on the part of this board
to demonstrate how the verizon url works someone load in poop salad so it displayed in the header, google picked up on it and it's now an indexed page

This almost makes all of the delays/negative rumors we've all had to endure over the past few months totally worth it.

almost

Awesome! First of all LOVE anything leopard print...

Secondly, if you know anything of shoes at all...well I have one very EPIC pair of blue sparkly Christain Louboutins in leopard print that I drool on every time I look at them. They were a very special anniversary gift from my husband and I swear I feel like a millionaire every time I wear them...but I digress. How about that Nexus, huh?

Must.See.Please.
