What's odd is, the first GNex I had wasn't completely like this; what I mean is, I use Juice Defender, and on my first GNex, the JD status bar icon was all the way to the left, but then there'd be a blank space between it and the rest of the notification icons. Now on my new GNex, even the JD icon is bumped to the left.

This isn't really a "problem", but I'm curious why this is, and if there's any way to change this at all.

i have the same "problem". it only happens when im using juicedefender. i uninstalled JD and rebooted, problem went away. i like juicedefender so i installed it and just turned off the notification in status bar. it looks like there is a blank notification or two directly to the left of the JD icon

See, here's how it looked on my first Nexus:

And here's how it looks on the new one:

On both, any other notifications start where the Juice Defender icon is in the second pic.

The second one is how mine looks too. Did it on stock rom and also on gummyrom

I still think your problem is you have an icon that is colored black, and therefore is black and black and isn't being displayed. I see the same type of display:

But that's because one of my icons is black/black, change the color and all looks fine then.

Just my guess....

**MRW1215** · 01-08-2012, 04:54 PM

I guess that's possible, but I can't think of anything that would be "hiding", though. Juice Defender was one of the first apps I installed on my second Galaxy Nexus, and it was doing that from the beginning. To my knowledge, I don't have any apps with a "black" notification icon. Wouldn't there be something listed in my pull down list of notifications, anyway?

I have this same problem and haven't been able to find any solution. Anyone have any ideas?

"Is there a reason notifications in the status bar are slightly further away from the left edge of the screen?"
In my setup the USB connection icon for a media device hides there until connected to a computer.

One issue I'm having and one fix I've found....

Direct Message: sometimes when I use my Direct Message icons the messenger (both stock and app), will txt someone else in my contacts (always someone I've recently txted). Even when I clear the history this happens. I've had to start entering the contact as I compose a txt.

Media transfers: I HATE not having a microSD card, but I've found that putting the phone into airplane mode prior to connecting to PC improves the speed and reliability of file transfers.

Also, this phone (and according to VZW, all new 4G phones), doesn't automatically turn mobile data on/off when sending/receiving a MMS. This gets pretty irritating as MMS only sends over the mobile network (i.e. won't work over wi-fi).

BUG : Cannot receive picture text messages... It shows a paper clip next to the message before opening but I cannot view or download it

**TitanicusRex** · 01-10-2012, 04:43 PM

Are you using stock msg application or third party? I've seen similar problems in handcent.

I haven't had any problems receiving pics on mine. I use the stock browser.

Has anyone found a solution to TUFFYKT issue of Direct Message sending messages to the wrong people. I have this problem along with the message indicating at the top that it is from someone else that I have recently sent a text to. Very annoying issue.(both stock and app)
Thanks

I could've sworn that I read in another thread that this is intentional on FBs part. Something with the API. Could be misremembering though.

I use friendcaster to sync FB contacts. FB and Google have some kind of disagreement, so the contacts are not synced intentionally. It's not a glitch.

Earlier I said "this is just a test" and it came out "joseph justin seth". Just now I tried it again (but said "period" at the end and it posted "Answers jessica terry". It's just posting names and a few random words like Terry. Am I the only one with this problem? Here's a video of it:

These are the only two bugs that I've noticed so far that bother me.

Also having problems this voice to text ..poor understanding even on very slow speach.. So bad on an ebay page I just type..Any fix other getting the Apple 4s ?

The voice to text feature works fairly well, so I am not sure why the Voice Dialer is so horrible.

Anyone have any tips?

Thanks!

**MillieD** · 01-17-2012, 09:26 PM

Not only do commands get horribly misunderstood through the bluetooth, but the volume of the "speak now" voice is extremely low. I can hardly hear it (especially when there's background noise), and it obviously doesn't hear me well. I thought it was just an incompatible bluetooth, but I'm now up to my 3rd new one and having the same problem.

**madcrabs** · 01-18-2012, 07:07 AM

This is a strange bug i noticed while using the official twitter app. The options key is still visible on the screen and bypasses the screen lock.
Im running stock 4.0.2 and my uptime is around 80 hours.
Im sure a restart will fix the issue just thought it was worth pointing out.
Also as im typing this my onscreen keyboard isnt reacting. Not changing fir capitals or numbers.

Edit: After a reboot the problem persists and it is happening with other apps too
I tried using the pattern lock to see if it was an actual security issue, and it did not unlock the screen. Still its odd.

**vinva** · 01-18-2012, 02:22 PM

I've seen it discussed on other boards (mainly XDA), but has anyone here experienced the "grayed out signal bars" issue on their GN (losing all data connectivity)? It happens to me a couple of times a day. If I'm somewhere where I have wifi, toggling wifi usually fixes it, but toggling airplane mode has never fixed it for me. Anyone have any luck with any permanent fixes?

Go into settings in the messaging app, and make sure that Auto-retrieve is checked under Multimedia Message (MMS) Settings.

**Chondog** · 01-19-2012, 10:34 AM

Many of the GNEX users are seeing a disruption to the WiFi sleep policy. When streaming music on Wifi (and policy set to never sleep when phone sleeps), wifi shuts off when phone goes to sleep (screen shuts off). Definitely a bug that should be fixed in the 4.03 update.....hopefully.

**mzdrati** · 01-20-2012, 08:20 AM

I searched the Galaxy Nexus forums, but did not see anything pertaining this topic.

I am having a problem with my Galaxy Nexus automatically connecting to my car's bluetooth when I turn on the car.

Bluetooth is enabled on the Nexus, and the car and phone are paired, and work fine sometimes. This morning I started the car and watched as the phone did not connect, so I shut the car off, shut the phone off and did a battery pull to restart the phone. When it restarted I started the car and the phone and car connected automatically as it should.

Seems like a common issue.I found this discussion on XDA:

Long-pressing the power button and toggling airplane mode on and off again solves the problem easier than a full restart. I don't have a lot of apps installed, and the Galaxy Nexus is not rooted, running stock everything on 4.02.

Its been happening on mine since day one. I've been trying to pin point it and i fell like it happens when you are on the finge between 3g and 4g. I have also had issues when switching from wifi to 3g. It seems like the phone or Vz network does a horrendous job trying to switch radios or authenticating. Does anyone know what the real problem is? phone hardware? network ?
