What color did you buy? Metallic?

and uhm, even if the pogo pins are exposed, you still can't use them anyway... because they require contact to connect, so any amount of thickness added will make it impossible to be used... the only way is without casing. I also don't understand why there are cases designed with the pins exposed sweat.gif

sordanny: tried that, nothing happens

if you think you have already imported your contacts but they are not showing, go to contact app, press the 3 dots, select contact to display, are the necessary contacts being displayed?

Anyone tried to restore sys and data files using TB after format the /sdcard dir? Does it 100% restored all the user/sys data?
*
if you're formatting /sdcard, you need to copy the TB files into your PC first, then copy back into your phone after you have formatted.

Yeap I had format the /sdcard dir.. port in those TB files to PC and back again to GNex after full wipe and flashing ROM.

User app + sys data still not 100% restored sad.gif
*
I'm not very sure about this, but its better to not restore system data, as it might conflict with the existing system data. Best is just restore apps + apps data.

- Hard to find wallpapers, because the Height is 1280 pixel. LOL. You'll need to find big wallpaper like 2560x1600, 1920x1080(Full HD) also will get blurred. LOL!
*
just one thing, the ideal resolution for wallpaper for this phone is 1440 X 1280 thumbup.gif Just make one using Photoshop, or even Paint.net.

Nope I wasn't. Why? tongue.gif

So you mean you did feel some lag?
Sounds awesome. Web browsing using the entire screen sounds juicy. Gives justice to the 4.65" biggrin.gif

Btw, I heard there are rumours about the next Nexus phone already?
*
the recently rumored Nexus device is to be a tablet, for phone its surely a yearly release. So you can expect to wait at least another 8 or more months for it tongue.gif

Can the GNex users confirm that stock browser can browser the entire 4.65" screen without notification bar on top and without the virtual buttons at the bottom?

Also...stock picture and video player??

Thanks!
*
The stock browser does hide the notification bar on top, you just have to set it in the settings. As for the navigation buttons, there are mods for you to hide them but require root. Latest AOKP rom also have this function built in.



stock picture, no. Video player, use MX video player, it plays nearly every video format and also has the Holo theme. smile.gif

Hi:-)  you look familiar, lol....
Suddenly remember you mention you sold your tab for nexus. Hahaha.

I really don't like the way the volume button is programed.
Would much prefer it control the media volume by default.

Wouldn't want to always adjust the ringer volume,
I only want it to be silent, or maximum volume, usually only need to toggle between these two modes,

If accidentally press reduce ringer volume, need to adjust it back to maximum.
There will be a beep sound every time when the ringer volume change. Super annoying!

I feel there is absolutely no need to constantly change the ringer volume, media volume should be higher priority.
I check in xda and searching for a solution for a long time. But couldn't find any fix.
Was really hoping in ics this will be fix. Oh well....got to get used to it since can't do anything.

This is the one thing I really don't like about android. But still, its my favourite os.
Thanks for confirming ics is the same case.

One less thing to look forward for the sgs2 ics update.
Sorry for disturbing this forum. Enjoy your phones guys:-)
*
you can try using any of the volume widgets to help ease the pain tongue.gif

Because Google decided to change the name of Android Market to Google Play Store.
It's like Sony Ericsson to SONY. No big deal, it's still the same thing. LOL.
*
for Market case, it could be more or less the same thing, just more organized and with the Google brand.

but for Sony, its a different case, its actually a huge deal. The reason "Ericsson" is not in the name is because Sony bought over the Ericsson share of the company, this means it is now fully Sony, and not Sony + Ericsson. Which means Sony now have full control of how the company will work.

But for consumers or normal people, it's not really important or have much of a big impact.

if you put it that way, then yea. biggrin.gif

but I hope they would make more awesome phones than when they're Sony Ericsson.

Hmm, just sharing this, here is a list of Holo themed apps that will blend well with ICS. Especially those who are using Twitter, try out Boid, its still in Alpha stage, but looks quite good.
