anybody else have issues with their nexus not getting a 3g data connection after disconnecting from wifi?

eg. at work i'm on wifi, after leaving work the phone should go to 3g, but the signal shows as grey?

This is probably that 4.0.4 bug... any roms that have this already patched?

I haven't noticed that issue. I'm on 4.0.1 still though. Stock, but rooted.

Honestly don't have any complaints about stock, so I haven't bothered loading a new rom on.

^ agreed, I used an old rom for a good 3 months straight will no issues. It seems the newer versions of ICS + roms all have individual issues.

One positive of the newer version of ICS though is that battery life is way better. I charge my phone once every 2 days on average.

I'm usually down to 40-50% battery by the time I plug in ~10-11pm. I start my day ~7am.

I don't really need to go 2 days on a single charge. As long as I can make it through one, everything's breezy!

Have any of you tried roaming and placing calls with a custom rom on the Galaxy Nexus?

I used to have the issue my Nexus S and a variety of custom roms.
You can connect to the network, like at&t, but no calls would dial.

I really hate how Google didn't use gorilla glass on this phone. The glass is so weak I managed to get a tiny faint scratch at the very edge of the bottom left corner of the screen

This sounds like a phone setting issue.

On your dialer press *#*#4636#*#*

Then go to phone info and change your band setting.

I finally found a root method without having to wipe the whole phone.
One click root solution.

I changed the DPI on the phone to 241 vs the stock 320.
Holy smokes is it awesome. Makes the phone so much more usable when browsing.
Especially in landscape mode, you can see the entry box
on the site instead of the blank one.

Did you use a 3rd party app or directly from the ROM Control (assuming your on AOKP as well)

You can also just install a tool to change the DPI as well.

How are you guys finding battery life on the latest build of AOKP?
I'm running ARHD 4.0.1 and find it lacks customization, watched a video on AOKP and I was amazed at how much you can do with that rom.

Running rooted stock 4.0.2, no AOKP yet. Very interested in Paranoid android since it has individual DPI settings for each app.

Just using LCD Density Modder to change the DPI. Works very well for me.
