I use the app because it always felt more light-weight than pulling up a browser to perform a search. And light-weight is a necessity for anything I try to do on my OG Droid nowadays ;)

Since you can't currently re-claim the space for widgets, my main complaint is its visibility. I don't get why the removed the search button, much less obtrusive and very useful for long press actions and the like.



Yep, that is correct. I'm sure it'll come eventually though.

Ah well that blows. I was hoping that you could then use the space... well thats annoying! Oh well it could be worse... BING! lol
 
I don't remember seeing this asked and if it was then i apologize but do we know the size for wallpaper yet? Full screen and for single screen?

His two letter edit in the manifest was referring to auto-rotation, "sensor" to "nosensor" (which I'm not entirely sure of what this means).

However, he has stated he has been able to modify stock AOSP to remove the search bar. I'd much rather do it this way so I don't actually lose the Google search app. When you combine this with that other modification someone else made to add the search button to the soft-keys, I'll be much happier. I'll also be looking at ways to have custom icons for the soft keys.

the sensor to nosensor im guessing is how he was able to get the phone to rotae all 360 degrees.

That's GSM

From Description:
This is for a Brand new never opened sealed in box, Galaxy Nexus 16GB Unlocked GSM, 720p HD screen, Android 4.0, there is no other phone out there like this one. Works with T-mobile, ATT, and other GSM providers around the world with 3g and HSPA+. This will as soon as the auction is over, not on December 11th like many of the other listings on ebay. I will not sell it before the auction is over so please do not ask and I will only ship within the US.

lol. This is actually true, as you can all see from my bipolar disorder.

On a serious note, I don't want to start a whole thing here, but just to let you know, I haven't gotten any PMs from Mods asking me to tone it down, be more careful, etc.

Truth is, since my "return", I've been in contact with the mods involved, and everything is cool. No one is "gunning" for me or muzzling me, and I'm not telling anyone to go jump in a lake.

As far as I'm concerned, we're the Brady Bunch again.

What if they were stupid enough to stick with a blackberry too long and are now stuck keeping it until the Nexus finally is released? LOL

I actually ended up dropping my Blackberry in the water a few months back and was without a phone. Sis upgraded to a iphone 4 and gave me her old Blackberry. I'm stuck with the slow, ancient technology that RIM uses until Verizon releases the Nexus. Come on Verizon, end my suffering, lol.

I knew you were joking, no problem. :p

Actually gave me the chance to say that I'm not getting that "we're watching you" vibe from the mods. Everything is as it was before, except now I get my name in black. I feel like Batman!

OK, now I wanna be on probation! :D
