Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

[breadnatty08]

Lucky, we saw Prometheus last weekend as well. In the IMAX in 3D. It was awesome! Only wish they gave you better glasses. And for those who haven't seen it, I still refuse to reveal any details!

I'm liking MasterChef Australia more than MasterChef America. The hosts in Australia don't act "god like" and talk down to everyone. They seem more real. And so far none of the contestants are out to get one another.

Gnex folks, head over to this thread & fill us Galaxy S3 folks in on this whole watering hole deal.

Treb, glad you're starting one up. Check out BB's OP for details and feel free to (mostly) copy it, or the Incredible thread as well.
Will be sure to hang with you guys and learn what awesome things we can steal from the S3 to the Nexus.

I think this guy might have problem with T-Mobile?

Saw it in IMAX 3D also. Amazing picture and sound. Really liked the movie too!

Morning all! I am thinking I am also going to go ahead and flash jellybean. Ever since I unrooted, took the OTA to 4.04, re-rooted I have been getting force close when I try to make a call. Not every time, but enough that's it's annoying. I never had this issue on the leaked 4.04. Also, seems like the second leaked radio worked better than the one in the 4.04 OTA, I never had grey signal bars before the OTA, now I do. So which version of jellybean, where do I get it and is the radio different than FC04/FC05?

It was great, we really liked it too. I think it raised a few questions but that just means we have to go see it again! It must have been good if I'm willing to play $25+ a second time!

Movie discussion time. Magic Mike.

Men, is your wife/gf/fiance going to see it with your approval, going to see it much to your chagrin, not going to see it but only because you disapprove, or not going to because they don't want to see it?

Women, are you going to see it and how does your SO feel if you are? Also how would you allow him to see a similar movie with female stars?

I wanna see it simply because the M&M's are in it (Mathew Bomer & Mathew McConaughey). The theater is too expensive, so I'll wait till it's out on DVD and rent it from home.

As for my SO... I doubt he'd care what I watch, and he'd probably watch it with me (if anything else just to poke fun at me watching the movie lol).

 

[ryancmatchett]

Anyone?

JB does not include radios just better reporting to those signal bars.....and FC04/05 is still the newest. Good luck!!!

Does anyone know if you can use NFC on a phone S3 in this example, to act as your work badge to enter areas the badge unlocks

I can't believe I just heard a commercial for back to school.:banghead:

OMG I hate seeing those so early. I don't have kids but I feel like Summer just started...and school always means the end of Summer.:argh:

 

[Bren S.]

How are you all getting JB already? Is it by rooting? I just ordered my Nexus this morning btw and to my knowledge JB won't be on it yet?

Hi Bren..welcome! Yes root required...most of us are rooted...and there was a leaked ROM (see my post above for the thread...). Most of us are also on Verizon too....
although there are several users with other phones...the JB we are referring to was set up for our VZW Nexus (aka toro).
Welcome.....

ty for the welcome

Well my Nexus won't be running on Verizon,so can I still post and stuff in this thread or?

Yep rooted (my keyboard ways to say ripped which is great for my ego but would throw off the conversation). If you are new to the ecosystem then I would wait for the ota as this one seems to have some new challenges associated with it. Even things that is experienced folks haven't seen before.

Heh Heh I can't help but think that BB's out sipping umbrella drinks on the sun deck thinking she's got us beat. And when she gets back she'll probably be the only Gnexer left in here that hasn't been running Jelly Bean forever

Nope, I'll be right there with her. Still holding out for AOKP or Liquid to take a crack at JB. As tempted as I am, I don't have time for some of the problems I've read about people having.

I wanna see it simply because the M&M's are in it (Mathew Bomer & Mathew McConaughey). The theater is too expensive, so I'll wait till it's out on DVD and rent it from home.

The M&M's are an excellent reason to see it. But let us not distract ourselves from Channing Tatum. The boy has moves. The only problem I had with the movie is that there was too much plot and talking, not quite enough half naked men dancing. But that's just me.

If it's problems you want to avoid, skip the Venir JB ROM. While a lot of folks have had success, it seems to have a propensity for completely borking people's Nexi. I know it jacked mine BADLY.

But this Jelly Belly ROM is so fast, so smooth, so gorgeous, so responsive... it will remain my daily driver until AOKP JB comes out. There are very few apps that don't work (one that completely crashes on startup)... and I can't make nandroids for some reason! I have no idea what the deal is with that, but /data backup just crashes & fails every time.

EDIT: If you really need Adobe Flash, you'd better get it in a hurry:

Well Bren, it's not the VERIZON Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole... and even if it was, you'd still be welcome to post. Kick back and enjoy!

thanks Ryan! I may flash back to the last leaked radios if I keep force closing. Meanwhile, I haven't had a craving for Jelly Beans in years, but I feel one coming on, lol!
