Just bought one.



So... I know there was discussion about cases, which one should I get?

Or should I just go night market and grab one there?

No ottorbox since it is way to fatty.

Depends what you want out of your case. A lot of people like the slimmer cases but they offer little to no drop protection.
I'm sure all of us are pretty careful with our expensive phones but accidents happen. I personally like the case mate pop for the nexus.
Its not overly bulky and it offers great drop protection. I've also seen ads on cl for mercury tpu cases, but they're only available downtown.

Maybe give one of those a shot?

Running the latest ParanoidAndroid 1.4b 061812
with Franco Linaro 190 512GPU build

this was before the linaro flash on stock CM9 Kernel


This was after


not much of a difference...but ParanoidAndroid is quite a big rom..and a bit bloated compared to AOKP or CM9

going to run with ParanoidAndroid for this week and then flash a regular rom later on!

I love the ParanoidAndroid Rom so far!
BTW, I just traded my S2 for the Nexus this past weekend.

Any of you calibrated your screen?
Compared to my wife's S2 the white on the nexus is more dull/grey.

This is a side effect of using the Pentile screen. There are kernels that allow you to tweak the colour temperature but I haven't really messed with them.

Awwww, so none of you have calibrated your screen?
I find it pretty awful. I did some calibration, it's better now but still room for improvement.
I've also noticed that if I open chrome browser for example (basically whatever shows a almost all white screen), for a split second the screen will show a bright white then the white turns dull/grayish.

Anyway, any one tried changing the housing yet?
It's looks like an easy process but there are no white housing available yet on eBay, except the one from eBay Germany which cost ~$100 after conversion

yeah....I saw that one too.
It's a private sale and I assume the seller bought it from eBay germany too.
I'm sure when the bidding ends it'll be in the $60+ range.

I'm waiting for the chinese seller to bring out cheaper one that's under $30.
