My phone has been out of the charger for about 6hrs 20m. Screen time is 56% time on for 1h 2m. Battery is at 68% right now. I don't remember a few weeks ago my battery draining this fast. I JUST reformatted my phone so everything is clean and fresh. So I'm not sure if I should buy a new battery or not. I have juice defender on settings aggressive right now as well.

Any tips, tricks, ideas, advice?

Also, my phone is NOT rooted, it is fully stock. ]]> Google / Samsung Galaxy Nexus npark2012 http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/282542-battery-gnex-bad.html Would the verizon galaxy nexus screen protector fit with gsm? http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/282494-would-verizon-galaxy-nexus-screen-protector-fit-gsm-new-post.html Fri, 24 May 2013 20:58:39 GMT I was wondering if the i515 screen protectors will fit the screen ono the nexus i9250?

I know this is a really old topic, but there are some guys like me who can't really find an useful app. I tried EasyBattery saver, and because I'm stupid I uninstalled it, then I tried to install it again but know the app won't let me change the settings. Any suggestions? Thank you!

In my case it says it's the screen. I always have the brightness set to the lowest or in auto.
It used to last 1 day without use and 9 hrs with use. Now it lasts less than 10 hours without use and less than 4 hours with constant use.
Screens (with almost no use since the last full charge)




Is there anything else apart from disabling exchange I can do? If not, I guess I'll try doing a factory or hard reset. ]]> Google / Samsung Galaxy Nexus aanto http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/280187-battery-drain-since-jb-update.html Reset on my Gnexus cured some ills. http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/280146-reset-my-gnexus-cured-some-ills-new-post.html Fri, 17 May 2013 21:54:12 GMT I was getting some lag that had increased over the last few 6 month's(Especially with 4.2).

I was experiencing quite a few oddities, in searches, Apps opening and more lag then I could put up with.

So I backed up my Gallery and flushed with reset. GN is back to new. A few things like adding items to folders, where the folder would move away and make it difficult, got fixed, the start date for my Data usage used to move, that seems fixed. The phone just seems perfect again.

All the new updates to google apps are working perfect again and its just generally snappy again.:cool: ]]> Google / Samsung Galaxy Nexus Chex313 http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/280146-reset-my-gnexus-cured-some-ills.html Future updates? http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-samsung-galaxy-nexus/280069-future-updates-new-post.html Fri, 17 May 2013 17:08:48 GMT I currently own a Nokia Lumia 920, but am losing faith in the OS - due to lack of new apps.

I am thinking of returning to Android, and want to know if I can still consider the Galaxy Nexus as a good device? (given that it's nearly 2 years old).

Also, what is the general feeling regarding future updates? especially regarding the 5.0 release (whenever that lands)... Will the G-Nex likely receive said update?

I've installed in but each time I launch it, it quickly force closes and I get an "unexpectedly quit" error. When I uninstall all updates, the older version works fine. Kind of a bummer because I want to give the new All Access thingy a try... for the free 30 day trial.

I see a smattering of feedbacks left in the Play Store that indicate the same problem... but they are across a wide variety of devices.... not only on the Galaxy Nexus. But the vast majority seem to have it working correctly...

Is anyone else having a similar problem?

It works over my cellular data connection just fine. But whenever it's connected to wi-fi, it stalls at loading address. This happens whenever I long press over a location that is not listed on the map.

I am running the latest version available for maps at the date of this post.

I have tried uninstalling all updates and then reinstalling the updates, but nothing helps. When I get rid of all updates, I still get the same error as when running the latest version available at the date of this post.

Any assistance that restores the ability to long press over an unlisted location on the map while connected via wi-fi and access street view or not stall at loading address would be appreciated. Below is a video description of the problem.

When typing a text and I receive another text or the person I'm texting replies the stupid keyboard suddenly minimize and types crap.
You have to be constantly maximizing the keyboard...God help you if the texts comes in rapidly you will never be able to type.
This happens a lot when my texting teenage kids.
My kids have S4, One X and Optimus G and don't have this problem.

Been having my galaxy nexus s for over a year now, never had issues with dropped calls until now. I am currently running Android 4.2.2 on cyanogen 10.1-RC2. I have had various ROMS before and any calls longer than 30 min get dropped for no reason. I am in a full fledged 4G area, not on wifi. I could be at home, or in a parking lot, it doesn't matter, my calls get dropped. I was talking to a friend in Germany and for the 2 hours we talked total, call was dropped 4x. Could it be that I dont have the right "radio" ? I have swapped out my SIM card thinking that could be it, but no go. I also have switched kernels and nothing. Im getting stuck here Any other suggestions? I'm so frustrated that I'm using my old blackberry now lol. I know pretty bad. I think I am just going to go back to stock and unroot and see if that narrows down the problem If I am still dropping calls, then I believe its the hardware and will send to Samsung for repair. I am at a loss.

got a galaxy nexus, running custom rom 4.2.2 (xenonhd). Yesterday I decided to encrypt my phone. a coworker also encrypted his but we figured out that you can use rom manager to make nano backup or even load any new rom.

how do I go about decrypting this puppy? I know I will probably lose all my stuff but i don't care as most of it is on google and dropbox.

I have the mysid-jdq39 factory image downloaded.

please advise

My notification volume seems to be stuck on silent. I've been through installed apps including GoSMS and the default Messaging app, and tried using apps in the market, but nothing seems to change the system notification volume.

This screenshot is in the system sound settings, adjusting the notification ringtone... Notice the volume slider is all the way up, but the icon says silent. And as I touch the notification sounds to play them, nothing happens.

What's more, when I use a third-party audio manager app, I can manually raise the notification volume level, but as soon as I leave the app to do anything else, it resets itself to be silent again.

What is going on?
