Phone's been perfect since I got it. On Rogers. I did have it switch network names on me a few times but still remained connected to Rogers.

Anyone else have issues with this?
On Fido. | Actually I noticed today after you mentioning it that I lost signal. Only for a few seconds and then it came back. I did have an international radio flashed on it instead of the North American one. Currently back on ugkl1. Was on xxkk6 earlier today. Dunno if you've flashed the radio previously.

I kept dropping when I was on the international modem (I'm on a bell device)
flash the bell modem back and not a hiccup since.

The Camera quality is not on par with SGS2... but as i've been saying after the N95 came out - 5MP on a mobile device is all I would ever need. If I want nice pictures I'll pull our my DSLR...
That being said, the 5MP on the GNex is the best 5MP cellphone camera i've seen...

I thought they didn't make the camera the same as a gs2 because they didn't want to cannibalize the sale of their own product.

hopefully it's cheaper for coming out a month later..$120 sounds reasonable.
it's going to be a long week  Rogers and Fido launching the Samsung Galaxy Nexus on January 10th | MobileSyrup.com | |

The difference in picture quality is hardly noticeable but the shutter lag definitely is. The only time I've had a hard time taking pictures on the Nexus have been at night, or in dark places like the aquarium.

XO and Martin Fields. As well as the Rearth Ringke slim case. I'll probably end up selling my Martin Fields one later on if anyone is still looking.
Be careful the case that you buy. The LTE and HSPDA are different thicknesses and manufacturers usually make for one or the other. The casemate barely there and inicpio feather are too loose on our phones.

I might go with the ghost armor combo Ghost Armor Carbon Fiber and Screen Protector Review - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com
want to help me put the screen protector on? I fucking suck at these things, screwed up 3 of them trying to put it on my old phone

I just received a HK Galaxy Nexus, but I'm having trouble detecting the 3G network. I have never played with an Android before, so I don't know there is settings that I didn't turn on. I can make calls, but I can't go on internet, and WiFi works too.
it says I'm roaming  How can I be roaming???
So I just set to allow roaming data, and now data works. But I'm still confused as in why does think it's roaming, and would I be charge for roaming usage?

I called Fido and they actually said it's something with the tower when Rogers bought Fido (didn't quite undestand what he meant), but he said it's fine even if my phone said I'm roaming, as long as I'm in Vancouver.

You can also try flashing some different radios to see if it'll make a difference.
I know on my wife's galaxy s certain radio's would not have the roaming mode.
