Three vending machines right in front of my office at my job had Paypass reader. It even showed the message 'Please swipe or tap your card." However, nothing happened when I tried to buy some snacks and drinks with my GN. Probably, the vending machines are not hooked up for Google Wallet...

As a matter of fact, your battery life is not too bad (as others mentioned). Of course, it is not too good, either. The cause of it is, I believe, your WiFi. When your screen is off, your WiFi also should remain off. However, your phone keeps WiFi always on which eventually drains your battery...

Consider this back cover of GN as a type of zipper. Just align the very bottom, then continue squeezing both side from the bottom to the top. It is extremely important you start from the very bottom to the top all the time. Once you get used to it, it just take 2 sec to remove, 5 sec to put it...

Started with fully naked. Dropped it on a taxiway of an airport while doing the preflight at night (with the torch app). Scratched almost all four corners of my GN. :mad: Now, I am using Otterbox defender (to cover the scratches from being seen). Probably will replace the unit via insurance soon.

Bought it on 12/15. Rooted on 12/20. Was thinking about using it stock for a while. However, I faced a need for WiFi tethering on 12/20. So I defected to the dark side of android that date. Now, I am using the unofficial CM9 with 4.0.3 baseband. Couldn't be happier!!!

Thanks for the link. Please read this, too. RE: Expiance's post on RGBW, PenTile, Subpixels and Graininess of mobile displays | PenTile Blog

Upps. My examplification of 30fps was not accurate. :D

Maybe I needed a pet to feed, out of boredom? :D

Please cite the source saying the effective ppi of GN is 230.

Um, I have to disagree with your point about purchasing goods, at least for electronics. Purchasing a product with the greatest paper specification is very costly. Virtually all electronic merchandises tend to drop its price extremely fast for the first one or two years after its introduction...

I didn't even bother to take a look at this thread until now. It looks funny. A decade old pentile debate on a phone with higher than 300ppi? Human eyes are limited to certain abilities, like 30fps, 300ppi, etc. Once technologic advancement of display panels reaches certain level, it does not...

I know. As far as I remember, this MTP or PTP transfer is going to be a lot slower by nature than USB Mass Storage transfer. While I understand why Google removed SD card and used this MTP for more available app installation capacity, it will become another bottleneck for Google in the future...

Just out of curiosity, have you tried dragging and dropping the files to a folder WITHOUT OPENING THE TARGET FOLDER? A few other members mentioned that they were successful in transfering files to GN with that method. If you are not familiar with this method, let me rephrase it. You select the...

Glad to hear that. You mean EK04 radio? I have been using that radio baseband for a week so far. I have seen one signal drop since I flashed the new radio, and that was it. Since I didn't really experience the signal drop issue even before flashing the new radio, I couldn't see whether it was...

Good input. Thanks! As I keep using my 3 GNs in my family, I am more and more getting convinced that the issue is hand-off / authentication problem in the GNs' baseband.
