    Thread Debating between this and a Galaxy Nexus...can someone bring me up to speed?

    Hi all, I'm advising a close friend on a phone purchase (she is not tech savvy). She currently has a Droid RAZR and wants to upgrade. I personally have a Galaxy Nexus and love it, but am a bit concerned about getting her a phone that is outdated hardware wise compared to the G3. On the...

    Is there any way to get rid of that stupid "Google Now and Location" card? It's totally pointless.

    Post [ROM][AOSP] Vicious-Toro V1- CM 10 kangs-- Discontinued

    Just an update to this - I just reflashed again trying to fix a wifi issue, and my volume bug is gone ?!?!?!?! I haven no idea what happened or why, but my volume bug is fixed. The phone is now equally loud compared to ICS, which is liveable at least. There absolutely WAS a problem before...

    I've resolved the problem of my completely broken wifi. I did a complete wipe, went back to the V3 jellybean rom, flashed trinity kernel 1.8ghz, then flashed the wifi fix. Then I changed the channel on my 5ghz network and for some reason it worked. It makes absolutely 0 sense as it was the...

    Post [ROM][AOSP] Vicious-Toro V1- CM 10 kangs-- Discontinued

    Okay, I'll correct my statement: The rom is useless as a daily driver for the 99.5% of the population that uses ringtones or notifications. I'm not being rude; merely stating a fact. A phone that's ringtones and notifications cannot be heard isn't very useful. I'm thrilled with the rom other...

    I'm not sure what on earth happened, but this actually broke my wifi - and nothing I can do is fixing it. I was on the Vicious v3 jellybean rom and my wifi was actually working great - I flashed this app to get the bluetooth and GPS fixes (since it said it won't hurt anything if you flash it...

    Post [ROM][AOSP] Vicious-Toro V1- CM 10 kangs-- Discontinued

    The rom works fantastic, but unfortunately it's also completely useless due to the low volume. For those in the thread who are saying Volume+ is not working, it is not. It only works on music; not on notifications or ringtones. I've tested this out with every combination of kernel and...

    Post [Tips] Screen Color Calibration for the Galaxy Nexus

    It drove me nuts at first until I realized I should use the multitask button :p Was not bad at all. Had the pattern generator in one app, and the color settings on another app. Only 1 button press to switch between patterns and color settings.

    Post [Tips] Screen Color Calibration for the Galaxy Nexus

    Yup, this is the unfortunate nature of the beast. Each device is different; really the only way to get reference colors is by measuring your own. It's worth trying different user's calibrated settings to see if it matches yours, but in the end, if it looks off it probably is.

    Post [Tips] Screen Color Calibration for the Galaxy Nexus

    There's been a lot of bad suggestions by people in this thread in terms of "accurate" colors. If you just want to calibrate your device to what looks good to you, that's great. But accurate colors are something completely different. I spent a few hours messing around with HCFR and my Xrite...

    Stealing? Please.... You are not entitled to anything, including the opportunity to purchase an item at MSRP. If someone puts in more effort than you and beats you to the punch, that's your own fault. If you are living paycheck to paycheck, you probably shouldn't have a $500 toy like this.

    While I feel your pain on the pricing, it's not our fault you have insane taxes. Perhaps more importantly, since taxes are a large part of the UK price difference vs. the US, it shouldn't cost ASUS that much to offer a similar deal.
