Morning folks! Looks like Isaac has tracked well west of us and we probably won't get much more than a few rain bands tomorrow and into Friday morning. Next tropical storm has already formed in the Atlantic but looks like it's taking a drastic turn North and won't get near the US. The only other potential threat right now is a tropical wave just off the coast of Africa. It is far enough South that if it does get some organization to it, it'll probably be a threat to the US. Very light hurricane season this year.

Hmm, we are almost tied with 2005 for most active year on record you call that light?! J/k I know what you mean. Storms are all pretty weak, so doesn't seem to compete with years past.
Busy at work, so not going to be on much today. Hope everyone has a great hump

Haha, yeah...weak storms and most have been kept out at sea. Makes it seem less active.

Good morning all! Happy Wednesday!
Just wondering what ROM is everyone currently running - my phone (still on Jelly Belly who knows what version) is giving me some hard times last night and horrible battery life lately. Just seeing if people are still running that, CNA, CM10, or something else? Thanks!
AND my usual morning picture.

Stigy - Running Sourcery 2.0 on my phone and CNA 3.3.1 on my Nexus 7. No problems on either, normal battery life on the GNex and excellent life on the N7 (averaging 5+ hours of screen on)
running Sourcery 2.0, battery life could always be better. I think it's great how they advanced specs of phones every few months. How about doing something to make batteries better, geniuses.

Motorola did the right thing with the RAZR Maxx - everyone just needs to do that.
That batter is killer and its barely bigger than the regular RAZR.

As of now, the answer to battery problems is make them bigger. While phone innovation motto has been "make it thinner". I think we are finally getting away from the make it thinner mentality and now are more along the lines of make it reasonably thin, which does allow for bigger batteries.
Newer battery tech is being researched and pushed along at a faster rate than in the past due to the push for electric cars. We should see some advancements in the next 5 years or so from what I understand.

Testing build for the Verizon Galaxy Nexus - AND it has new radios! Hoping someone can extract the radios and build a ZIP to flash - that'd be awesome!

I agree, phones are plenty thin enough now to allow for bigger batteries.
Like the other cool kids, I'm using JBSourcery 2.0.

Morning!! It is a good one too. DSB and I had a very long conversation last night. I found out that after I went left and he went right at our crossroad he hit a detour and came left again.

Morning Stigy! I'm on JBSourcery 2.1, digging it so far, but it's only been a few days. Battery life seems about the same as I had on AOKP ICS. jhtalisman posted last night that he's running CM10 and will post screenshots; I'm excited to see those, I really want to see what it looks like.

Sounds like good news Congrats, BB.
EDIT: By the way, friends, we need to make sure that BB gets the ceremonial 20,000th post! It's coming up very soon

Stigy, the XDA thread you posted is very interesting - are you still following it? They're saying that the update includes a new bootloader, new radios, a new boot animation (wonder what it looks like!), and some kind of app/database optimizer - not sure exactly what that last part means.
Anyway, I wonder if all this can be extracted and incorporated into existing ROMs? This thread over at Rootz for the new radios seems to generally have people getting a little bump in reception and data.

Yeah trying to follow it now.
Flashing the new radios now, but curious to see what all this new optimizing stuff and boot animation is about. Keeping my eyes peeled on that.
Edit: Oh wait that optimizing apps thing is what happens when you clear cache/dalvik in recovery. That is nothing new.
I'm curious to see new boot animation though UNLESS this guy hasn't been running JB since he only has four posts and thinks the ICS boot animation was previously used.

Ah, well that's a bit underwhelming, haha. I thought it would be more interesting than that.
As for the boot animation, do you mean that it's still the same ICS one, but the guy thinks it's new?

Had my Stone Enjoy By last night and oh boy was it one of the best IPAs I've ever had - the floral/hoppy notes were so fresh and rich. It was so smooth. If you can find one via the locator, PLEASE pick one up and try it.
Do you guys realize that in just a tad over 3 months we will have been rocking our Nexi for a year? We're almost half way to an upgrade and I dont' have phone envy yet. Wonder how many of us will be in the next big device pre-release thread, haha. Probably another Nexus for me as long as Verizon opts for it.
Man, I don't even know how Verizon contracts work anymore - it used to be early upgrade every year like clockwork for me, but now NE2 is gone and the structures are all changed, etc etc etc, not to mention the fact that even grandfathered unlimited is getting the big ugly axe, and you're force migrated to the tiered data when you try to renew your contract. I don't even know if I want to change phones ever again!
You do raise a great point though, geek - it's definitely a testament to the awesomeness of this product that we're all still happy with it; in fact, I still think it's the best overall phone on the market. The GS3 and One X and a few others might have a few edges on hardware specs, but none have nearly the same developer support and modding communities. Our Nexus is still top dog IMO.
As for whatever comes down the line, I agree that I'm probably a Nexus-only consumer from now on - anything else will just feel too restrictive! I actually do like the idea of having multiple OEMs trying their hand at Nexus devices; since the idea is all about choice, this will mean the most options possible! I'm still interested in the idea of a Motorola Nexus, especially now with Google behind the wheel (as long as they don't try to pull any fast ones on us, like the root checkers).

Ehhh I always fridge it up then throw it in the oven on 350 for a few minutes and it gets pretty good. I don't like day old pizza except for leftover Domino's for breakfast. Ooof bringing me back to college life.

you call that light?! J/k I know what you mean. Storms are all pretty weak, so doesn't seem to compete with years past.
