Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

ASC said:
Had a scare this morning. My precious is being FedEx'd to me here in AZ from Cali. It left Cali yesterday around 4pm. I was thinking awesome! It should be in town late last night. Woke up this morning and checked and it said it was in Memphis! :eek: WTF!

Checked again when I got to work and it left Memphis at 1am and got here at 4am. Sigh of relief!

All FedEx shipments go through Memphis first. At least they used to back in the day.

yea I am still happy with the phone but I was really looking forward to 4G....I am sure we will get better coverage overtime but for now....eh. I am also looking for a dock, one that doesn't plug into the micro usb just the pins on the side for charging so I can put it next to my bed and maybe another for work not sure yet.

That's the same dock I want, for work. I tend to listen to music all day, so having a dock is helpful. Down the line I may get one for the house too.

Definitely want a car dock as well, eventually.
 
Well I got SwiftKey X to finally work. I realized I had to update it and I always kept refusing it. I updated it, and now it's perfect!

I just wish that I could use the stock voice-to-text tool with SwiftKey. Guess I can't have my cake and eat it too.

:(

its the one WITHOUT the pogo pin charging and audio right? i really want the home and car dock that makes use of those lovely pins!
 
Hope someone can help me....
I am eligible to upgrade at a discounted price (according to vzw website), however...this ligibility doesn't show up on best buy's site, or Amazon's, or LetsTalk.
I've tried to get the 3g-4g $100 credit....but I think enough of 'us' tried that they've clamped down (all are asking for the fax of the promotion from my 'friend'.)
I'm going to (HAVE TO! :D)get the Nexus ASAP....I'm just wanting to knock the price down as low as I can without waiting another month for prices to drop.
My poor DINC is completely undependable as of late....the alarm never works anymore (THAT was an awesome Cannonball Run to the bus stop at 6am this morning! ugh!)
I'd appreciate any guidance!
 
Anyone else having issues connecting property to your hosted exchange on Mailstreet. Only getting 2-3 days worth of emails, but not the last weeks. Not sure if it's Active Sync. First time for that for me.

I'm "on call" at nights. Phone has to ring, emails, and SMS don't want a ring. Any recommendations on a program to turn off sound for SMS and emails, but leave it on for phone calls in case the hotline calls?

Thanks in advance.

Right, no pins, but it doesnt look like the one on the Samsung site uses the pins either. It just has holes cut out of the top to access the charging port and headphone jack. When will docks using the pins be coming out? Might have to get one for home.

I can't wait to be running Google music through my speakers, using nav and charging all at the same time - conveniently on my dashboard.

I like "timeriffic" - You can set it up to turn on/off individual ringers/vibrations at whatever time you want.

There are two I can suggest:
Tasker: it is not for the light of heart. You can get pretty deep with automating your phone. My favorite is having my phone alert me if it is in a certain time in a certain area at the time of day that I need to be picking up my daughter. It rings at 3:00 if I'm at work, and 3:50 if I'm at home, and won't ring if I'm within .5 miles from her school.
Locale: I find it to be way easier to set up, but less options.

I use them both. I use locale so that at night, only certain numbers can ring through (kids, mom, husband).

Video I saw before had the pins in the Samsung one, and jacks on the side of the mount for charge/headphones. Maybe that's only the GSM version?

EDIT: This looks like it might have the video, can't see while I'm at work, but the picture definitely shows the jacks on the mount itself.

Will do, whenever I get home. The box is there, I'm not. I'd love to use the pins...but is that coming out? May have to return this dock...

I guess you're right, I don't see any of the ports on that one on samsung's site. :(

I really want the ones with pins and audio too. I'm not sure positive they are making one for the i515
 
I don't like this at all -- what is keeping my phone awake?!

Thanks!

The biggest worry I had about the RAZR is non-removeable battery. I've never had a phone that had a good battery after 1 year of use. That's the biggest reason I couldn't see myself getting the RAZR.

The other biggest thing is obviously ICS. Not only are you getting ICS here before you're gonna get an official port (probably several months away), but the GNex is also going to get the NEXT operating system relatively quickly or at least previous Nexus phones have received quick updates.

I use Volume Control +
You can set each volume to whatever you want.

Light Flow FTW!!

I thought the stock notification light was waaaaaay too slow. But this app rocks!!

Once I got everything set up and changed the colors depending on the notification it made the notification light infinitely more useful.
