No Google won't check the country of the card. The only thing matters is if your bank allows the transaction with a foreign billing address. I am very certain of this because my friend used a Vietnamese card and I used a Japanese card and our orders both went through without any problem. And...

Did you mail them internationally? The rule doesn't apply to domestic shipments though. AFAIK, now they do indeed allow batteries with international shipping Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

@the Croatia guy: You're out of luck now. The shipping estimate is 4 to 5 weeks. I'm in Japan and I successfully ordered two 16gb in the first batch and had them shipped to my friend's address. It does depend on how strictly your bank performs address matching. I guess since japanned address...

I doubt that... Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Underclocking is different from core scheduling. Under locking definitely saves battery , though it comes with performance trade off. However, disabling cores randomly WILL NOT save battery and probably do the opposite. I guess some people can tinker the kennel to try optimize the scheduling...

Just out of curiosity, why don't you guys try a forwarding service like BorderLinx or Shipito/MyUS etc? I used a Japanese credit card with the virtual address (given by the company) as the billing address and shipping address - the order went through smoothly. Just use some VPN to get an US IP...

I'm thinking of using BorderLinx or Shipito. Their price is more reasonable than DHL or Fedex or UPS, too. And I was a bit surprised that I was able to use my Japanese credit card to purchase two Nexus 4's (I have to use a US billing address, but somehow the bank still OKed with that). Next time...

Which shipping service do you use? Fedex, DHL and UPS seem overpriced to me. USPS doesn't accept anything with batteries so... :(

Try Light Flow app to see if LED is working or not

Another myth. Not true for Lithium batteries

1. Yes, technically speaking it's possible - but you won't be able to do it with stock ROM. 2. No. I doubt that. If you use one core and the core gets overheaded due to high load, then it's the opposite of energy saving. Don't bother tinker to much with core scheduling, since such tasks are...

The above email is just an automatic reply. I called the support team and was told that my order was put on hold for review - probably because I used an VPN and ordered from outside US (the billing and shipping address are US though). Now it would be very shattering for me if my order gets...

The SMS center number is stored in the simcard, changing phone won't help. Check yours with *#*#4635#*#*, phone information. You'll find the section about the gateway. Be careful not to click Update. Click Refresh instead to check the current value. Soft bank's one should be 0791180966153900...

SMS has nothing to do with this. You have to check the SMS center number to make sure it works. Also, if you send an SMS to a number outside softbank, it's not guaranteed to work Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

You can receive message but you cannot send? It seems more like your APN setting has some problems. If your MMS agent is incorrect, you can't even receive the message. I don't have an S3 so I can't tell much. Did you try GoSMS for once to see if it works? You can set MMS agent with GoSMS. What...

No. Ex-Nexus S user here. Just broke my phone a month ago and switched to a 2nd hand Galaxy Nexus. GNex is so much better, and it's not expensive either

Did you by any change use a modded version? I use a modded version and I sometimes get this message. But I don't text that much though...

No it doesnt restore apps. But it does remove the old one from the market. If you add another phone, then the device would show up. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Using Google's one. I don't like the design but it works really well, especially with people and places' names. BTW, Google translate supports hand writing for Japanese. Might come handy sometimes, but you need internet for that. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Each device has a unique id that doesn't change even when you flash a new ROM. Notice Google Play automatically removes the info of the old device when you flash a new ROM. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I don't know the technical details of the technology, but from what I read about it I assume it only works for changes in the APK. Games often contain a lot of graphic data, which probably renders this technique kinda useless Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Yes, the tutorial you gave should work. This is the MMS.apk for 4.1.1. I'm using it on Stock ROM.

Hi! I posted one version of the app for Nexus S here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835944 Recently, I just bought a Galaxy Nexus, and turned out it can't run the Nexus S version since the framework file is probably different. So here it is, Stock MMS with Emoji support...

Hi, I want to use a modded version of an APK on the stock rom, which is odexed. However, it doesn't work since the APK is deodexed... Is there anyway to install such modded APK on the stock ROM? I tried to build the APK myself from framework.apk of the stock rom, but I think I have to deodexed...

Try the latest one from http://androidsu.com/superuser/

Recently I've been so sick of GoSMS with its constant spamming messages and bloated features. It feels so clunky on phone so I'm desperate to search for an alternative that can work well on Softbank (the only reason I stayed with it is because it supports emoji and user agent string). So I...

Do you have the JB version yet? And how did you add emoji support to the APK? I cannot find any tutorial about this

Is here anyway to enable ad-hoc network for JB? I've searched around to no avails...

But honestly, downloading APK from unverified sources is not a smart idea...

I wanna part with the Nexus S, too. It's a pain using Chrome on Nexus S (I tried several ROMs already). But I think I'll hold back till the end of the year. I hope Google's going to release another flag ship phone :-)

Postponed in Japan to further develop software. *facepalmed*

Great. I've been waiting for this since forever

My phone sometimes loses signal (the bar is totally empty) without any clear reason. The only way to get the signal back is to restart the phone. Decided to remove it :-/

I can't access multiupload. Any other mirror? :-(

Have you tried Dice? It's a great player. Totally worth the money

Try Advanced Wifi Lock Free. It works well with my tablet. This issue seems to be a bug in Tablet S. I hope they'll fix it in the ICS release

It turned out that ICS Gmail can run smoothly on Tablet S. I use two accounts at the same time, and the stock Gmail app often get force closed when switching between the two account. However, the ICS Version doesn't. And it's much faster. Installation is simple. 1. Download the Gmail APK...

I was able to run ICS's version of Gmail on my Tablet S. However, the original APK from ICS for Calendar app keeps showing the package parsing error. Anyone has any idea how to get the Calendar app run on Honeycomb?

No. I use the APK from the link above. You need root explorer to access the system folders. You can simply replace your current APK with this one, set the right permission and reboot your tablet. That should work. But back up your original APK - I hold no responsibility if somehow the APK...

No this can't work. The link you posted are the APKs for Froyo. Tablet S runs Honeycomb, and needs a specialized version for the tablet screen. I will need someone with a rooted tablet to get the APK for me :-(. Edit: I can see that you have a rooted S. Could you mind grabbing the APK named...

Hi all, I've just rooted my tablet today. In the process of removing bloatware, I accidentally removed Gmail and really need to have the Tablet S's specific Gmail apk file to install it back. It's impossible to install from the market, probably due to the android version. And hell, why can't...

I am excited. I hope that there will be CynogenMod ROMs for Tablet S soon :-)

Yes. But I don't use data connection on my phone - only wifi, and I don't regularly turn the wifi on. Still the battery problem persists

DicePlayer rocks. I tried various apps but only did DicePlayer works. Tested with a 1080 h.264 movie and the quality was STUNNING! Definitely worth the money :-) By the way, Honey does not support H.264 natively so most of the players out there won't work

I got the same problem after flashing the Clockworkmod 5.0. Then I flashed the 4.0x version (found in the rooting guide on XDA) and it's now working smoothly :-)

Anybody knows how to disable the 3D Map feature in Google Map? I think it's the reason my phone often gets frozen. And I don't find the feature very useful at all. Thank you!

I couldn't find the button to link my PBXes account to Google voice?

No, I'm using the original kernel without any tweaks in the system so far. I rooted the phone but just to use some apps like Shoot Me or AdBlock. Aside from that, I don't think I made any changes in the deep system settings. I will try to do that. Hope that it'll resolve the problem. I guess...
