One word... WOW!!!

My thought is that the distortion is not the signal boost from Volume+ but rather the small not so loud speaker being a little over driven. That having been said, I am satisfied now with the volume increase by using Volume+.
To get it to work on the Nexus, go to Settings>Sound>Music effects> and select Volume+

Slightly interested in ICS. Just not this phone

I picked up a GSM Galaxy Nexus and I was completely blown away by it. I have used several Gingerbread devices and actually got to the point where I really hated Android and went to an iPhone 4s (thank you HTC Sensation). Well I'm glad I came back to try out Ice Cream Sandwich. Its very smooth on 4.0.2 and I love the animations. I love how fast and responsive the device is. Now I did notice a slight delay while in the app drawer but this "lag" was not the normal lag I have experienced on other Android devices... if that makes sense?

Funny, I remember you around the Sensation forum, which is now pretty much dead. You hated the Sensation almost as much as I did. I also purchased Volume+ for the Sensation based on your recommendation. I think I even used your recommended settings. I hated that damn phone. It represents exactly why HTC was not profitable last quarter, and the Nexus represents why Samsung is gobbling up market share. The Sensation had an abysmal screen compared to the GNX. Remember the horrible viewing angles? The screen was not very responsive and HTC Sense 3.0 was laggy and always loading the homescreen. It was the slowest dual-core processor I had ever seen operate. It drove me insane. Glad I was able to sell it for $300 on CL.

With the Galaxy Nexus, the screen is perfect. Viewing angles are absolutely excellent. The dual-core TI chip is phenomenal. Despite the lack of Tegra-esque hype, I have had no problems playing top shelf games with high end graphics. ICS is a joy to use and I seem to learn about neat features every day. I would rather take a bullet to the cranium rather than use Sense 3.0 again.

I have had great success using Volume+ on the GNX. Sounds very loud now. I simply did not adjust any of the EQ settings like I had on the Sensation. I just increased the volume to the max settings and it works great. People comment to me how loud and clear the phone sounds in a room now.

I've got nothing but good things to say about this phone. Coming from Blackberry this is my first Android device and I don't think I would have been happy with anything else so I'm glad I held out. It is a joy to use and whenever someone catches a glance they are amazed. And like the previous poster said, it seems like every day it gets even better.

I still haven't received any updates though (rocking GSM)
