Since you specifically bought the rev 2, I'd bet if you e-mailed the retailer they would send you out a replacement also.
 
Can someone quickly tell me the difference between

this - [BOOTANIMATION][DEC 27] Original Nexus 720p - xda-developers

and this? [BOOTANIMATION][JAN 03] Optimized ics boot animation - New High Quality Images - xda-developers

Can the Jan 3 animation in the latter link be used with the stock ROM? Thanks.

*****

Also, can the ones in this thread be used with the stock ROM?

Uh.. and, actually.. how do you install these? :o

Most of the ones I've seen say what they can be used with. Or what they definitely won't work with. I was able to flash mine from the SD cars to install. A couple pages back I think Han might have gone over installing. Maybe. (My poor brain cells are exhausted so I wouldn't swear to it).

So, you just download it to the phone and you can flash it from CWM? It can't be that easy, can it? Haha.

[Boot Animations] Boot Animations for Galaxy Nexus ~ Updated 01/07/12 - RootzWiki

I believe the Jan 3 one is visually tweaked (I'm using it). Any of the bootanimations should work without flashing. Just open the zip, look in the data file and extract just the bootanimation.zip file. You can then transfer it to the phone, and put it in either /data/local or /system/media. The rom's normally have it in /system/media but if you put it in /data/local it will look there first. It has to be named bootanimation.zip.

Those are 2 different boot animations. The first link is the older Nexus boot ani and the 2nd one the new ICS galaxy boot ani that you have now, but enhanced resolution and deeper blacks. They should both work on 4.0.2 iirc.

You could try, just flash in CWM and reboot and see if it shows up.

Both are zips and can be flashed in CWM.

Ahhh, okay, that helps, thanks! The first one is what I was looking for.

So how do I go about installing it? I just download the zip to my phone? Then what? I'm not really sure what "flash in CWM" means, hahaha.

they are flashable .zip files that you install in clockwork mod recovery (CWM).

However, I prefer to put them in the appropriate file location myself....using root explorer on the phone just move/copy only the bootanimation.zip file into /data/local (after extracting that file from the flashable .zip in the links above....its located in the data file when you open the zip)
 
So I need to learn to never pass up on an opportunity to try and pitch an idea. Last year for my Senior Project, my group designed an application for a smart fridge that would scan the barcodes of your groceries and store inventory in a database for grocery shopping and recipes. More details here: SKIM Systems | System & SKIM Systems | Media

Well today this was unveiled at CES: LG unveils new smart fridge with Blast Chiller to keep your wine cool | Stuff magazine
The smart fridge also has plenty of other features to help manage your life. Smart Manager lets you scan your groceries' barcodes and track the expiry dates of your food – as well as recommending recipes based on the available ingredients.
