It seems that the radios that people like best vary a lot. All of the radios I have tried have worked just fine. You can flash any of the radios with any of the ROMs/kernels. The easiest way, if you have been using CWR to flash zip files, is to get the zip versions of the radios and flash them...

Franco's latest kernel update enables the capability to charge via USB at the same rate as plugging it into an AC input. The only thing I have noticed with this, at least with the milestone kernel and Codename 1.5.0, is that I have trouble with file transfers while in this mode. However, the...

Seems crazy, doesn't it? But I maintain, the phone is awesome - the carriers (at least Verizon) just don't have a respectable ROM and kernel. Badmouth them instead would be my suggestion. While I was buying the phone, the Verizon rep was there - she was complaining that she has to keep her...

One other quick note: using Wug's Nexus root toolkit, you can revert back to stock from the menu (I had to do this because my first Nexus radio was screwed up and kept on shutting down). After I rooted, I just went into that toolkit and reverted everything back before I returned to Verizon to...

The guys here have made it very easy - much easier than what I did on my fascinate. On my PC, I downloaded and installed Wug's Galaxy Nexus root toolkit (from the sticky). I don't have the menu in front of me, but in the thread it gives you step-by-step instructions - you get the drivers...

Dude... -73 is a MUCH stronger signal level than -101! That is a great reason to root! Not sure why you are complaining.

Don't return your phone yet!! I loved this phone when I got it except for one problem: the stock version was getting 4-6 hours of battery life on the extended battery! I was seriously thinking this wasn't the phone for me. After rooting and flashing Codename 1.4.0, the battery life shot up -...

Root, then install barnacle or another wifi tether app from the market.

I haven't read through this whole thread, but thought I would share my experience. Running barnacle wifi tether, a connection to my ipad worked fine, but to my Win 7 Pro laptop, it would see the barnacle connection but could not connect. Checking a few forums, I found that someone had the same...

I found that for whatever reason, both the Microbes live wallpaper and my email app were consuming a ridiculous amount of CPU time (and therefore power). A reboot and an update/install of the email app resulted in the normal behavior - only a few seconds of CPU time in a few hours rather than a...

I'm curious about power consumption of this live wallpaper (I am on ComRom 1.3). System panel lite is reporting hours of CPU time that it is using (comparable in time to the launcher), even when I know that the amount of time the display is on is a small fraction of that time. I would expect...

OK I'm curious about this - are we training the phone for the battery, or for how you use the battery? The reason I ask is that both my wife and I have a fascinate. We have an extra battery and a separate charger. So I may end up using 2 or 3 batteries in a couple weeks. Do I need to do the...

Cool! Love your instructions, Landshark You make things very clear. I won't clutter up your thread with community ROM topics. Gotta play with this for awhile. I'll just say to anyone else thinking about this - it is very simple. Follow Landshark's directions above and you're good to go.

Thanks Here goes...

Thanks, Landshark That worked great. Thanks also for the ROM. I've decided to give the community ROM a try - do I understand correctly that I can go from here (and the stock kernel - no voodoo) to the community ROM by using CWM with the ROM zip files transferred to the sd card? The voodoo kernel...
