    I unrooted my nexus

    Yeah, there is no reason to root a pure Google device. I'm not sure why people do this. Since Jellybean the phone manages battery and memory very well. I had the Weather Channel app causing battery drain when JB was first put on the phone but since then the Weather Channel app has been fixed. I...

    Galaxy Nexus 4.2 Android Troubleshooting

    Since the first update after the original install of JB I've had three instances of the phone not communicating with the battery widget, the Google calendar, and no weather app widget updating. I had to restart the phone all those times. I use the calendar widget for work and it would go blank...

    More space being used with 4.2

    Ah thanks! I totally knew this but for some reason 13gb did not seem right when I was looking at it. Of course the op system used space. I hope the Weather Chan people fix their app so its not searching for GPS all day killing the battery.

    Battery Draining Too Fast

    Are you using the Weather Channel app? It has been discovered that the app keeps searching for a GPS signal. Also make sure no other apps are doing this. GPS issues can be a huge battery gobbler.

    More space being used with 4.2

    I noticed that my space was reduced to 13gb from 16gb since update. Can all of the new additions be using 3gb? I have not downloaded any new music or file since. No new apps as well. Maybe its the lock screen additions?

    Share what you find in Jelly Bean 4.2

    Hmm, it seemed to remove what I added. Did you drag it up to remove area and showing it's highlighed in red?

    Just recieved the 4.2 Update OTA GSM Nexus!!!!

    I'll try that, thanks. Is that a Met cap and you are form the Bronx? I think the GPS search is from the weather channel app. It would not surprise me if their app is not totally up to par with this latest JB update. It was not doing it before the update. The worry is the battery being used with...

    Just recieved the 4.2 Update OTA GSM Nexus!!!!

    Got mine also. The clock is really nice and the lockscreen new options. The new notification settings area is nice. The camera though, doesn't have a way to click on pics that were just taken. At least I can't see how that works. You used to take a pick and a thumbnail would go into the corner...

    MHL/HD Adapter No longer Works after 4.1.2

    Heads up! If you have an MHL adapter to hook your phone to your tv via HDMI it may no longer work. Just tried it today and it does nothing. It worked before the update. I've also had issues with phone keeping up to date with battery percentage app and actual system battery percentage in...

    Guesses on Availability and Play Store Price for GNex after Nexus 4 Released?

    We'll find out soon. I don't think anyone aside from Google really knows that answer. We will know soon enough. It may depend on how much inventory they have. I doub't the current Gnex is in production anymore.

    as far as im concerned

    I would imagine they will replace it with the new LG device or any others they may be announcing. This is probably why they lowered the price to $349 over the summer so they can move inventory. It may be still on the site for a little while until they sell out. I don't see them manufacturing...

    Well, I did it.

    You'll enjoy it! I still love this phone and I've had it since early July. No junkware on it! The screen is still as beautiful as on the devices coming out now. Should be good for another year or so before it really starts to get dated. By that time the next Gnex 5" plus screen will be in my...

    anyone else having notification problems? since 4.1.2 takju

    Noticing my battery circles widget which shows percentage of battery left, weather channel, and another weather app is not pulling updates like they normally do. The battery level shows lower and is updating in settings area but not for the widget on homescreen. Odd! I restarted the phone as...

    New Nexus and android owner

    I use ColorNote from the Play store. It does do quick lists that are easy to generate. You can also click on an "X" for each item that you want to remove as you go through the list. It has lots of other features that I haven't explored. Looks like the developer put some good time into it. It's...

    Google needs to take a lesson from Apple

    Would never happen. Why? You shutout commerce for the wireless carriers. You would see less phones than we even see now with the latest and greatest version of Android. There is big money involved with customizing each version of Android with bloatware. Unfortunately, it's not always about the...

    How the heck do you use Google Wallet?!

    You don't need to have the wallet app open, however NFC needs to be enabled in the setttings area. It's under "more" in the settings of Jellybean. I've used it at McDonalds by tapping the phone up to the device they have. The first time I used it it didn't work and then I went back in determined...

    Chrome in Jelly Bean

    Yep, some make it sound like if you didn't know it was a big deal..lol I can see where the confusion would come in with the Nexus 7 and the Gnex having Chrome. BTW: Chrome will not support Flash in the browser. If you still have Flash installed you will still be able to use with the stock...

    Anybody got shipping notice from Google

    I am sure you will get the device. We do get impatient sometimes but they just want through a thing with a company called Apple. We are lucky that they are even able to ship the device this soon with all that went on. I got mine before I even knew the legal stuff would halt sales for a few days...
