Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Good morning all - finally back in NJ after being in Ocean City all weekend for the biggest VW event of the year. It's incredibly how many VWs, Audi's and other cars just fill the entire town of OCMD. So many loud exhausts all day long - it is the most wonderful weekend of the year.

Also, saw the Verizon "glitch" while I was down there and was able to order an LG G2 while I was down there during the weekend and keep my unlimited data. So my G2 will be here on Wednesday and I will have unlimited data for another 2 years. Reading a ton of reviews, root guides, etc about it and I am really stoked. It seems like AP wouldn't recommend it based on the buttons and software, but it seems the "Knock On" feature works really well for others and most bloat can be disabled.

Happy Tuesday!

Glad you got it, Stigy. I'm still a little bitter about my situation. :(
The knockon, as I tried in the store works really well.
 
Hi folks! Happy Tuesday!

I just got the holster in for the Note 3, and the sheer size difference between it and the Gnex is stunning. I put Ginny in the holster and she about got lost in there! This phone is gonna be huge...

I understand from the Note 3 forums that AT&T is 7500 units short of the pre-order demand: which means some folks will have to wait up to 2 weeks to get their devices!

Not a heavenly way to keep your customers happy there, AT&T. You taking lessons from Verizon or something? :p

Nice car pics! And BB, there is no shame in being the last one here with a Galaxy Nexus.

Well, yeah there is :D

JUST KIDDING! Gnex is perfectly capable! :)

:)
 
Last ditch effort with Verizon. Still no dice. :(
If the wife's Gnex still isn't charging properly, and she has to get a new phone it's either: Upgrade and use LESS data or buy a used phone.
Shall be a fun conversation tonight. ;):o
 
We're just too skeptical to change! :o
Looking at used phones, she can get plenty for $200-$300 and not change out plan.
I have a real hard time believing that T-Mobile wouldn't work well for you since you live in DC suburbs. But if you're really committed to staying with Verizon, I still have our 2 Verizon Gnex's sitting in a drawer.

I may be starting with T-Mobile soon. Just for data.
 
Man, I'm so torn, the G2 is coming out in 2 days and I want to look at it, but I know that if I do, I will buy it even though it's not coming in white, supposedly, and it will be a fingerprint magnet and then the Note 3 will come out 1 month later and then I will be pissed because I pulled the trigger on an inferior phone simply because I could not wait, and isn't it weird that I know how stupid it is, which means that I should be able to exert enough self-control to simply wait for the phone that I want, but I know myself and that I will not be able to wait, and I'm a grown man who puts criminals away for a living and look at me, just look at me, I'm behaving like a 12 year old little whiny boy who wants his toy NOW dammit, and I'm just setting myself up for failure, what the hell is wrong with me!!!

First world problems?
 
Jhawk, we live in the middle of DC. :)
And, make a strong effort never to leave the district since it's always a pain. ;)

Anywho, fixed the wife's phone! Ended up toggling USB debugging off and on and now it charges everywhere just fine! :D
 
Congratulations on 102% of goal BabyBlues! :D

I had to revise my signature to see if we can't get 150% before the run. It's this month, isn't it?


EDIT: Man, now that I pre-ordered the 2014 Note 10.1 the reviews are coming in and they're mixed. Always gives me second thoughts. Amazing display and functionality, but lags, crashes and hiccups. Hopefully any of that will be fixed with a software update in a HURRY.
 
Thank you for putting me over the edge Captain!!
Tie - pics or it didn't happen!

My pleasure helping you over the edge BB.

G2 is on Fedex vehicle for delivery. I'll obviously miss the first delivery today, but the best part about Fedex is that I am 10 minutes from the hub so I just call and they hold it there tonight so I can get it after work.

Hopefully nothing changes with my plan when I activate it tonight.

YAY YAY YAY!

Happy HUMP DAYYY, woo woo!
