Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Had some issues getting my data back up on GummyNex 0.3.0, but now its up and running and damn this thing is snappy.

Let's see how it holds up for now. Sitting at 1200MHz max CPU and 350MHz min CPU in the Performance Menu -- not 100% sure how to configure setCPU with voltages correctly.

Sorry for the dumb question.... but where the heck is the settings screen for Nova Launcher?

In the upper right corner of the App Drawer are three dots -- those are Nova Launcher settings.

Ah.... don't see them, but I didn't do the flash version of the launcher, just the side-loaded app. I guess that makes a difference?

EDIT - DUH, nevermind found them

I side-loaded as well. If you're in nova then open the app drawer and in the top right corner there will be the 3 dot menu button. When you press that it will say Market, Manage Apps and Nova Settings.

Check out my post in the VZ root section here. It'll give you something to go off of with my initial settings. Each phone is different so play around with it.

Just use "APPLY" for the voltage tweaks. Don't "SET ON BOOT" till you know you're stable.

Perfect, thanks -- set mine and will report back tomorrow after some use tonight. Just wondering where you got these from, XDA or guessed on your own after some trial/error?
 
Did anyone else grab a warranty with the 35% off sale @ SquareTrade? Sweet deal. I'm contemplating getting rid of my Assurion warranty now... though they've been great to me, replacing "lost" phones for $50 a whack without question.
 
This made me think of CaptainRon:

In reply to my PSA that we don't support Getjar posts here -

jasaero said:
I have never heard of this before?? I am not certain how their compensation or marketing works for devs, but do know many devs do offer their apps through getjar officially. Beautiful Widgets in particular is officially legit through getjar according to their support staff per the link below. I could see the many open sourced and non proprietary nature of Android and many of the apps causing confusion in this regard as any joe schmo can go and offer such apps as a dev through a place like getjar. I have never really heard specific or widely publicized claims of getjar promoting piracy in the past though is my real question to your claim. Just seems unfair to blanket label a legitimate small time appstore as piracy when as far as I know the only large claim against them was apples issue with them calling themselves and appstore. This doesn't mean there haven't been smaller dev fighting over such things, but I have seen pay launchers ALL OVER the official google app store that are just amateur hacks of freely available tweaked version of stock launchers on the official market for a long time in the earlier days of launch customizing. If there is a link I would like to see it. I am against piracy, but if a place like getjar has a savvy way to offer many paid apps for free and most devs are going to them as seems to be the case on the surface I find it unfair to label them as piracy site. Part of the reason I use android is because it's not a 100% walled garden like Apple where there is only one supported retail distribution option for devs. This should include less well known and large retailers really also if the dev chooses.

beautiful widget + getjar / Beautiful Widgets / Discussion Area - LevelUp Studio Support

Also, their revenue model seems plausible enough to keep many devs happy while giving users free access to those devs apps.

I quote policy, I don't set it. Your thoughtful rebuttal is under full review - if we're wrong, we'll change policy and apologize for the confusion. If we're right, we'll provide substantiation.

Appreciate your reply and tenacity in this matter! :)

I'm getting a quote for $124. Is that what you got?

I know the feeling. I have to be out and about to even consider 4g as an option. Its nonexistent at home and work

Are you in a 4g area? We've had it for a while in Fort Myers but it's never been solid. Funny thing is that I used to actually get some 4g coverage at home before the official launch in October.

What really sucks is that I have a VZW tower within site of my office, but I'm told that particular tower doesn't have LTE. I find that strange as it's right next to FGCU (university) and a minor league hockey arena.

I'm surrounded by 4g but it doesn't quite reach me at home. If I go to dinner in Glen Rock I have it. Literally less than a mile away. Oh well. It's like a treasure hunt that I win when I find an area that has it. :D

@CaptainRon: Just got in the office, I'm zipping that tweaked Nova Launcher and sending to you in a few min. Keep in mind though, that the app button is invisible, but in the same default place. If you'd like to change it, just long press on it and edit the icon. If you're partial to the stock ICS app button, you'll have to download the ADW ICS theme pack from the market (its free and compatible with Nova).

Thanks Han. I'm looking forward to trying it. I'll also flash Milestone and Francos while I'm at it - after I get some sleep.

Sorry you couldn't join me in Bangkok BB. It's not New Orleans, but although it was a "chilly" 79 degrees when I landed at 11:30 pm I'm sure the temperature will be bearable out by the pool tomorrow afternoon. ;)

Another GNex sunset picture from Tokyo. This time on the ramp. Not great photo quality, but not bad considering the low light and no tripod.

I used Fab's settings he cooked into his Apex kernel as my starting point.

Purty! I am thinking not nice things about the fact that you can be outside by a pool tomorrow.
