Yup, there's an led API that was introduced in froyo with the N1.

Shame more companies don't put multi colored leds.

gvoice is green, the tasks app lets you change the color for its notifications.

Not really, that's a standard warning message for accessibility applications. Since lightflow doesn't have keyboard it can't record keystrokes.

I totally forgot about forcing gpu accelaration since yahoo would crash with it on, maybe it'll get rid of the little bit of lag I encounter sometimes.

Just fell from about waist height onto a tiled floor in my house. Fell flat on the screen. For what it's worth the bumper that was on it was a cheap 5$ piece of shit.

Looking to get it repaired soon, anything I need to watch out for when I go about this?

oh yeah mine's been turned off for some time too. I was going to wipe here soon after the 4.0.4 update but this may save me the trouble.

The launcher is already hardware accelerated though right? That's where it seems to be the slowest....

if you're experiencing slowdown in the launcher and you're on a custom rom, find a way to disable the softkey animations

No idea about that. Have to talk to your carrier I guess. A 3-yr contract sounds like a terrible thing.

You just call Verizon. It's in 9/10, possibly 10/10 condition, with all box and accessories included. I have an extended battery to go with it, too.

You can probably activate it online. It's LTE so you'll need a SIM card. Better to call them and find out instead of asking me, heh.

I'd prefer Amazon payments but I'll take a Paypal gift payment.

I can ship it on Monday. If you're willing to pay for next day, I can ship it at that rate.

I figured I'd try something different, that's all. I may change phones if I can't deal with the Note.

Nope, sorry. I don't have anything but the phone on me right now. I wouldn't have the box. Plus I'm flying tomorrow and I need a phone until then.

Let me know what you think. This phone needs to go.

Galaxy Note?

Check this out:

http://www.androidcentral.com/carpho...-contract-week

Quote:
The Samsung Galaxy Note is one of the surprise Android success stories of the past six months. And now British retailer the Carphone Warehouse is offering the device for free on a surprisingly reasonable £21 per month, 24-month service plan. In addition to a free Galaxy Note, the deal gets you 100 minutes, unlimited texts and 750MB on T-Mobile UK, which is a pretty competitive package for the UK market. Carphone says the deal will be available to new customers online and in-store for the next seven days.

Yup. Extended battery plus all original stuff. I can ship it tomorrow. I'll throw up pics tomorrow if you like. I'll only have until 12 PM EST to ship, though. Just PM me if you're willing and we can figure it out. I'd like to know ASAP so I can tell Verizon to cut the line.

FYI, the boot loader is unlocked.

I remember last Christmas, the morning of, how much I paraded my then newish Galaxy Nexus around to everyone. I especially stressed how awesome the camera was feature wise (not to mention the rather useless instant shutter).

That night when the family gathered for a photo by the Christmas tree, I was asked to take a picture using my fancy pants phone. My heart immediately began to palpitate and I quickly answered, "....can't, the battery died. New toy, used it a lot today".

No way in hell was I going to show just how shitty my new toy's camera actually was. Thankfully, my sister had her canon with her....

I've been there. When I'm told to take pictures for someone that isn't there I always 'forget'. It really sucks because other than the camera I love showing off this phone.

What are you looking for? I have a brand new in box gsm model. It's the one I ordered awhile ago but haven't had a chance to return it. PM me if you're interested.

Do white Galaxy Nexus phones only come in NON-yakju?

Doing a bit of shopping around the web and heard that mentioned somewhere. It's really hard shopping for a new GNex because it's impossible to tell if the unit is Yakju or not.

Does anyone have any tips on where to buy one online?
