Hey all! Like many, I am eagerly anticipating the arrival of this phone, and look forward to dumping Verizon for a prepaid plan. In order to protect my current phone number (that I have used for 10 years now), I'm planning on having it ported to Google Voice. My question is this: once I've...

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#torojro03c It looks like the Verizon Gnexus has all of the same binaries posted as the GSM version. Does this mean that we can build from source again!? I'm getting started tonight!

So I'm having a bit of a dilemma here. I installed one of the newest CM9 nightlies a few weeks ago, and ever since then, my phone has been randomly powering itself off. I tried mutliple different kernels, but all gave the same result. I then tried to nandroid back to an old 4.0.3 backup...

I'm currently running Bugless Beast 4.0.3, which I like for its minimalism and bug-free nature. That said, I feel that it's time to upgrade to 4.0.4, and I'm interested in a ROM with a bit more customization. My top two choices right now are AKOP and CM9; could anyone with experience running...

So for the life of me, I can't figure out why Voice Search won't detect the contacts on this phone. I've synced and resynced contacts, cleared data for voice search, and installed and uninstalled the latest Voice search from the market. No matter what I do, it refuses to to dial a number or...

So I've had my eye on a new Kernel that I want to install, but as a former Droid X-er, I'm not quite sure what is involved. If I install a designated 4.0.3 kernel, do I also have to install a 4.0.3 ROM and radio?

So long story short, I replaced my first Nexus, which had major vertical banding, with a new one. No banding at all. Unfortunately, I noticed a problem with the new one as well: a heavy yellowish tint to everything. I have read a bit about different kernels having the capability to calibrate...

Update: I ran an experiment comparing Live Wallpaper performance on the Stock ICS Launcher to performance on the Nova ICS Launcher. Scroll to the bottom of this post for the interesting results. Issue 23014 - android - Extreme lag on all Live Wallpapers except Phase Beam - Android - An Open...

I have been experimenting with Gtalk video calls, and for some reason, my call recipients have not been able to see me. I have tried using both cameras for my video feed, but the person on the other end only sees a black screen. I can see them perfectly. Is this a known issue, or is there...

I just had a "wonderful" visit to my local corporate Verizon store, in an attempt to get them to replace my current G-Nexus for one without vertical banding. Long story short, the CSR was extremely rude: he compared his phone to mine on half brightness and said that he couldnt see a difference...

To be short, I love my Nexus, but I have noticed some mild vertical banding on grey backgrounds like the settings menu, and on navy blues like the Androidforums background. I have read that many others have noticed similar things, and before I take mine back to Verizon for a replacement, I...

Hi all, so Ive read that rooting the Gnex requires that I unlock the bootloaders. Ny question is, do I need to relock it "for security" when Im done?

So as many of you may have noticed by now, Live Wallpapers (with the exception of the default Phase Beam LWP) are extremely laggy on this phone. It is impossible for this to be due to the hardware, as most of these LWPs run twice as fast on my old, stock Droid X as they do on the G-Nexus...

Hi all! Absolutely loving my awesome G-Nexus. I've been playing around with the notifications, and I've noticed a couple oddities with the pulsing LED notification light. I was hoping that someone else might be able to confirm if they're present on their phone. 1) When the LED pulses and...

Hi all. I've been running the original MIUI4DX, converted to work with the GB Kernel, for some time now. Now I see that there appears to be a new version called MIUI Defy X. In what ways is this new MIUI different from the Framework43 build that I'm currently using? Has the ROM been...
