    who is rooted but is not flashing roms and why

    I've rooted and the only thing I flashed was the 4.0.4 OTA. I don't see a need to fix anything on the phone but maybe some volume issues. Coming from a rooted TBolt with multiple ROMs tried, the battery life on my GNex is phenomenal. The extended battery adds so little girth that it's worth the...

    Just left verizon.. Gave me a date

    I think I'm gonna join the masses in attempting to see what a VZ sales-person knows. I gotta go in to open up a new line and check on my bill, so I may as well take that lunge to ask if they know anything. The 21st is only 3 days away and would be an amazing launch date, considering how long...

    Add a line for upgrades?

    Frank, I thought the ETF applied to the line of service, not the phone? I've read where people will use their rebates on a "dumb"phone line, and then use that phone in place of their smart phone. They never mention an ETF and say dropping the data price is easy. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

    Just going off things I've read. Hmmm...

    Add a line for upgrades?

    I'm working on getting a cheap feature phone and then ordering the Nexus online. A bloat-free ICS sounds like the phone for me. Thanks for the help. :)

    Add a line for upgrades?

    I thought that if you ordered online, they sent you the phone unactivated, so the data charge wasn't applied yet. And if it was applied, could I activate a feature phone on the line to remove the data charge?

    Add a line for upgrades?

    So I'm interested in the Galaxy Nexus, and I also wouldn't mind paying a little extra for upgrades more often (I could always sell the phone I get if I'm content with mine), but I was wondering how that would work out. If I added a line online and ordered a smartphone like the RAZR or Nexus from...

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    Thanks for that. I have been religiously bouncing from androidcentral, the official nexus site, and verizon waiting for some info, but never saw that lol.

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    I intend to do just that :) Also, where is that image from in your signature? I didn't think Verizon had any real notice of the GN except their little news bit.

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    Of course I will be the one to answer the question. But you never know what insightful point another individual can bring up when you put an issue to the community. Sometimes people just need reaffirmation for the choice they already made. I just figured I'd see what you guys thought.

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    See, my problem is I flashed CM7, and I still can't seem to get decent battery out of it. When it comes to most arguments between me and my dad (he's become an Apple fanboy), I can usually top him on anything, but then he pulls battery life argument. He's no heavy user, but even standby-wise...

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    I'm thinking very hard about the Galaxy Nexus. Like I said, it will cost an arm and a leg, so I only want to make that plunge if the community has a mostly positive view on it. Seeing the Hong Kong event and the specs and all the positive news coming from the SDK (I played with it a little...

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    Yeah, I've been reading about the optimization. The prospects for this phone are really good in my eyes. I might actually have a phone I don't feel the "need" to root. And if I do, it seems like the root is straightforward and painless.

    Should I work to get it? Or just wait?

    (also this might be my first thread...so...yay me?) I came over to the Android side about 6 months or so ago. In that time, I have had a Droid X and an HTC Thunderbolt, drooled over the Bionic for a spell, rooted, unrooted, and bricked (then salvaged) both the DX and TBolt. I love my TBolt. The...

    Nexus Prime vs Razr Specs, Videos, Ringtones & Wallpapers

    re: Nexus Prime vs Razr Specs, Videos, Ringtones & Wallpapers I've been hearing a lot of confusion between the processors of Droid RAZR and Galaxy Nexus, and I believe the RAZR forums has the 2 processors switched on the devices, whereas I've read elsewhere that they both have the 4460's Also...
