[yeahyeahright]

use your galaxy s and open the new market you'll see it at the loading screen..

No leh, not on my Galaxy S, I guess I was one of the few lucky ones? Other than that though regular usage wise, you really can't see the problem on the g.Nexus, phew!

Just preordered a 32GB GSM galaxy nexus on expansys.com.sg. I hope they're right about the release date being 8/2/2012!

8 feb? think its a matter of days or weeks before sg launch. but idk if theres a 32gb. thats what holding me back from getting an export set.

 

[Gixxerfied]

Don't think 32gb will launch together with the 16gb since 16 itself is way due..

 

[OKK77]

which cover are you all using?

Bought OtterBox Commuter. Still waiting for the phone to be launched.

Samsung Galaxy NEXUS Cases, Samsung Galaxy NEXUS Commuter Series Case // OtterBox.com

Lol I don't think the 32GB SG launch will be 8 feb. In fact I bet the 32GB ver will never be launched in SG >.> a bunch of sites have claimed a 32GB GSM version will be launched in the UK on that date though, so I'm hoping to get an import set.

Also, can you lucky galaxy nexus owners try this app? https://market.android.com/details?id=com.codebutler.farebot&hl=en it claims to work with ezlink and looks awesome!

Lets say i want to experience the stock rom, but with the benefit of rooting and bootunlocking.

1. I will just run the Gnex Tool kit as soon as i get the phone?
2. If i am to try flashing roms such as ARHD once im done exploring the stock rom, will it wipe my phone?
3. If anything goes wrong, i can use the tool kit to restore back to default rom?

Also, alot pple go for custom rom because of various bloatwares.

Will there be serious bloatwares found in Gnex Phones from our telcos? Thanks

1. I am assuming this tool kit unlocks bootloader? if yes then u can do that once u get your phone since unlocking bootloader wipes everything unless u back up before hand.
2. generally when u flash new roms, u are supposed to wipe before flashing so the actual act of flashing of the rom doesn't wipe your phone, but because it's recommended protocol to wipe before changing roms, u will lose your stuff

dont think there is "serious" bloatware. even the standard phones from telcos don't have "serious" bloatware, unlike some US telcos.

Yes I just ordered it directly from the website. Another option was to get it shipped via vPOST but the cost came out the same anyway.

anyone here can comment on the battery life? is it better than iphone?

The one thing i can confirm is,

you can remove the battery and place in a 2nd one unlike the iphone..

 

[jittery]

anyone here can comment on the battery life? is it better than iphone?

depends on how many things in the background syncing....
i using stock, battery can last about 1.5 - 2 days, depending on how itchy hand i am..

cannot compare like that one la. even between 2 people with iphones, when I ask them their batt life, I get wildly different answers. 1 say can last 3/4 day, the other say can last 1.5 days. who to believe?
