in that case I think your display is indeed faulty, do you have anyone you can compare your gnex to?
you should probably try claiming warranty for this

lol, why the front one is still black in color ?

because of the SAMOLED display, it'll look better with a black front.

@Phantomash I remember reading about Swype getting released for ICS by the end of January... till now only got the hacked version shocking.gif
*
nope, the hacked version is released long time ago. Since December iinm. I've installed it since the first day it came out, and its been for awhile already, but still I prefer to use the stock keyboard 80% of the time. tongue.gif

I kinda type in a hybrid way using Swype though tongue.gif
Used to use SwiftKey X back during Amazon App Store gave it for free and without region checking. Went back to Swype without looking back lol.
A little off topic, Chrome Beta is out for Android!

That's imo the best way to use Swype, type in hybrid, I used to be only Swype user when using my HTC Desire. Since upgraded to GNex, I tried using both stock keyboard and Swype alternatively, in the end stock keybaord win me over, its that good. However sometimes when I have to type a more formal message, with long words, I'll use Swype tongue.gif

I thought the stock browser already syncs with Chrome bookmarks?

Any of you guys tested the nfc? I don't have other GNex to test :-(

there is news saying that 4.0.5 update is coming March, hope it'll fix these problems for you smile.gif

Yup when i was on stock 4.0.2 i experience that problem. Just go to SETTING set FLAT on MUSIC Player should be fine. Only 328 kbps rate song only will lag and distortion.

i guess it fix on custom rom. i haven't try on my custom room yet.

hope it helps

flash it. biggrin.gif
based on my experience, dis phone must be flashed, cannot use as stock.
compared b4 and after. alot #%$#$% alot difference.
swipe like iphone(sensitivity)
smooth, battery life also lasts alot longer den stock.
more features. :]
on apex 1.0.2 ROM , and apex v5 KERNEL.
*
TRUE, but not everyone wants to flash a phone just to make it work. smile.gif
I don't think it should be this way either. So hopefully the coming update can fix all these issues.

curve screen very bad design. sp always come out. that why I think someone say need special wet sp for this phone. but another biggest problem of this phone will be bad battery. I just not recommend this phone to my friend due to this few issue.
*
hmm, subjective.

Curve screen is what makes the phone looks different than the rest of Android phones, and that SP is not a must. I have not applied SP since day 1, and my screen is still flawless.

Battery life is generally on par with every other high end Androids, I don't see what's the problem. My phone generally last me 1 day at least.

The only critics that I'd consider valid is the lack of SD card, and the low volume speaker, other than that, its up to personal usage and opinion.

any of you thinking of getting a larger battery? Mugen has one 2000mAh battery, same size as the stock battery, so no added bulk only battery capacity. hmm.gif

dude... don't you see how the black bezel actually compliments the deep black of SAMOLED display? =/

this is actually a brilliant implementation, they did not just simply follow every single white phone out there. Too bad most people can't see this fact.

also you forgot about the LED notification, which is invisible with the black bezel. What if with the white bezel, you see a black dot that is the LED? That would be... ugly as fu-

+1, then why they release white s2 and note ??

because they did not thought of this implementation before?

Also the navigation bar on S2 and note is not black?

and that both of the phones does not have LED notification at the front that is invisible?
