Samsung Galaxy Nexus, now what? Case pics added

Why the hell is the SGP taking so long for them to release the neo hybrid cases in Yellow and white. =\
& the official car dock. I cant wait to use the time lapse function. =\

Aye, I agree with you regarding the official car dock. I know its on Bell's website, but I've heard from others that they've ordered and only to receive emails stating that it is backordered. Maybe Samsung waited so that all carriers will get it? Who knows?

Last time I checked, SGP doesn't even list the Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy Nexus on their site anymore. Dunno what's up.

Having some issues with the calendar and appointments being sent to me that I am hoping someone can help with:

1) When another Android user sends an appointment invitation I see the email on my phone. It shows an attachment file of invite.ics. If I click on this file I get the following message: "Info: Sorry, no application found to view this attachment." Below the attachment I see the invite details with the "Yes, Maybe, No" options to reply. If I click on one of these it tries to open the web version of the calendar rather then calendar on the phone. Is there any workaround for this?

2) When a Blackberry or iPhone user send an appointment I get the email but the body of the email is completely blank. If I open this email on the desktop version of GMail I am able to see the event details and respond. What can I do about this?

Hope someone can help with these issues.

Thanks in advance.

ok so i just had apex kernel and bigxie apex rom for the past day.
this is way better then the franco kernel and aokp combo.
if anyone is looking for a new rom kernal combo try this out.

If the white GN is coming out in the UK next week.. (I still want the black one), I've heard rumors that the 32 gb unlocked model will follow soon after. Any ideas on pricing/release dates? Also, should I wait for the Galaxy SIII to come out (April?), dropping the price for the GN 32 gb model and purchase it then? At the end of the day, I prefer an HD screen and a mediocre camera because I watch more movies then I do take pictures. I also prefer vanilla ICS rather then the ICS with TouchWiz. I want the GN but I only want the 32 gb model.

What does the Apex ROM have that AOKP doesn't? I agree with not using the Franco kernel as I don't really like how he handles his releases. Guy releases updates almost every day and many of them are reverts or fixes issues with his release a day before. Seems like he just tries to jam as much things into his kernel first and foremost and then tries to fix any issues if people complain.

I'm using the GLaDOS kernel currently as his releases are less often and the guy seems very knowledgeable and knows what he's doing. Some Franco kernel features (such as color control) are taken from GLaDOS as well. Might as well get it from the source yourself, ya know?

You're right it's back. Anyways, I just picked up my case and it fits perfectly with the extended battery. It looks and feels great. However, the power button is a bit harder to push now though, but nothing deal-breaking or anything. Absolutely worth the $30 bucks.

Didn't know you have the extended battery! Did you stretch the SGP silicone to fit the phone better?

Nope just threw it on. The first time I put it on, my volume button was kinda off so I took it off, readjusted it and put it back on. It's now perfect. Nothing at all looks outta place. Phone looks super slick.

Thanks again for the case.

I remember when I tested the hybrid SGP neo case with pchan0 it didn't fit properly. Had the same issue with the volume button or whatever. As it is I am using the Incipio case from Bell, but now that I see you made it fit properly, I guess I will be grabbing one too.

pchan0 - sorry to bug you again :P

I have a snug fit with the extended battery and the otterbox commuter case, without the plastic back cover.

Well now that you mention it also, I'd assume that the volume button will be an issue everytime I remove the case. Good thing I don't do it often though, but yeah, the case definitely fits. Try putting the plastic part in volume side first. It wasn't too hard to do as I did it on my 2nd try.

Another thing I like about the case is that the "lip" around the front of the phone that raises the screen up is much more subtle than other cases (Diztronic and Otterbox for sure). This allows you to swipe from the edge of the screen much easier when you need to such as with tab switching in the new Android Chrome browser and using the quick controls in the ICS standard browser.

First time trying to install a custom rom last night, cyanogenmod 9 Kang nightly, after it installed I rebooted and got the endless bootup loop screen for 25 minutes. Took out the battery and rebooted again, same thing endlesss loop. I restored to my backed up stock rom.

Trying again today with today's build yet same thing. What am I doing wrong?

apex is a aosp with with stuff taken from cm7 and tweaks added.
think of it as a stock droid minus the fluff but with the bonus.
its very very good. i apex kernel is great. much better then franco.
i tried 5 kernels. and so far this one is my fav. lean would be the my second pick. with trinity being a close 3rd.
