General :: Galaxy Nexus Or SGS III In Terms Of Android Custom Rom?
Jul 4, 2012
I really like the stock look of the ICS(yes the one that Galaxy Nexus has).So I was wondering if there is anyway to get rid of the Touchwiz from Galaxy SGSIII.After a small Google research that I did it seems that a user is not able to get rid of Touchwiz unless it replace it with another Launcher like the Launcher Pro.So what I found out that the only way to do this is to flash the phone with a custom rom,which will not contain any OEM launchers or any other third party launchers. Any kind of launcher that will make SGS III look like Galaxy Nexus's stock launcher,I am looking only for the stock launcher only.
So I was wondering if there is any custom rom to get rid of touchwiz and leave all the other goodies that Samsung has included like the Smart-Stay(the one that tracks your eyes in order to keep the screen on),All share,etc,... in SGS III or the only way is to buy the Nexus?

Like to know if there's a place that explains all those terms like root, adb, unlocked, etc... and not just steps to do them? My new nexus one could use some "WOooowww" moment.

I used mskip's toolkit to root my device, which succeeded, but I am unable to flash a custom rom. I've tried to flash 2 different versions of paranoid android, using cwm recovery, but I get the following error :
'assert failed: getprop("ro. build. product. device")...
E: Error in /sdcard/0/download/pa_grouper...
(Status 7)
BTW, I had no problems flashing pa to my Nexus 4&10 and loving that rom.

I got a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.3. Since i never really used Google Now, i used Root
Uninstaller/Uninstaller Pro to "freeze" those apps. Now, when I'm trying to get the OTA update on my SGN, it fails.
I used this app to freeze with [URL] .....
I suspect it has somehting to do with the apps being frozen.
My problem is, that Uninstaller Pro can't unfreeze the apps, when i try to do so, the problem just locks, and nothing happens.
How to proceed so i can update my phone ? I'm not scared of using ADB.

I rooted my Motorola Motoluxe (XT615) and i've now started on removing all the yucky, yucky bloatware. So i've came across an app labelled "Terms of Service" (com.motorola.setup.tos) and is it safe to remove?

I've had the notification that ICS 4.0.4 is now available for my Galaxy Nexus. I've tried to apply it a couple of times but it fails with the Android on his back with a Red Triangle over him.
The phone is rooted and encrypted. How to apply the change?

I rooted my Galaxy Nexus and downloaded a CWM file and used the command prompt and according to the prompt everything is installed correctly, but how can I be sure it is actually on my cellphone? I need to know because I'm downloading the 200+ mb files now for 4.1 and I want to upgrade, but I have a fear I may not flash the zip files correctly.

My government gave us galaxy (10.1) tablets instead of books. But unfortunately this tablets's OS is not a normal android 3.2; It has been customized and we can't access many applications or other thinks. So I've decided to make a new custom rom for this tablets to offer in a competition of project. I have 2,5 months for this competition and I should make this rom. I've downloaded the android source (I want to work on 4.1jb) It is 4.2gb on my ubuntu 12.04 and I don't understand anything till see your answer on stackoverflow. I read and have some knowledge about system but It is not enough.. I know c# lang and I know general coding for 4 years.
I should edit the launcher (I said desktop but I don't know how calls It..). It has programs and widgets tabs and I want to put a new tab here. And anyone cannot see programs and widgets tab without any permission. This permission will give students's tablets by teacher ('s tablet). So, students can't play anything in the lesson but when it is over, stundents can play anything what they want.. Teacher will give the permission before leaving class..
This is what I want to do.. Briefly, I want to make a custom rom but directly using android source codes.Because I think I can't make this rom with using kitchen or just editing .apk files..

Just got my brand spankin' new Galaxy Nexus to replace my dated OG this morning and its insanely fast and everything seems to work great but I cant seem to send texts. Ive tried with Zygot3, Android Revolution 2.1.2, and right now Im on GummyNexus and Ive tried it with and without the leaked radios and it doesn't work no matter what. Calling is fine but every SMS just says message not sent. I have 2 bars of 4g so I should have enough signal...

I have a VZW Galaxy Nexus. On 4.1.2 I can tether my Xbox wirelessly with success. On 4.2.1/4.2.2 I can't anymore. All ROMs and kernels fail. No configuration I try anymore allows successful tethering. Xbox reports the error that it can't get an IP address.
Can you wirelessly tether to your Xbox using Android 4.2.X, and if so, what phone are you using and what ROM and kernel.
I'm trying to determine if this is just a Galaxy Nexus issue, and if there is anything that will work with success. (I'm not the only person with this issue, but everyone I know with the problem has a Galaxy Nexus).

recently I have received a Galaxy Nexus from A sibling because it had a defective charge port. I had replaced it (which included a new mic). I noticed my mic didn't work with phone calls (I understand that people were experiencing a muted effect, I cannot even hear a muffled sound. just fuzzy background recording) as well as with certain apps like snapchat. however with certain apps and features such as Smart Voice Recorder, and Text-to-speech feature, it functioned perfectly with clear recording. I have plugged in a external mic, as well as a two individual headsets with mic feature, and the same problem persist. I have even gone as far as to download the Soundabout app which allows me to decide what my primary recording device is, and still no resolve.

I am currently on a Galaxy Nexus, and the one thing I am missing from my iPhone is the ability to view my notifications when I am say in a game or an app that hides the top bar. Is there a way around this or something I am missing? Is it coming up in jelly bean? (I haven't had time to really look it up but I heard about the better notifications.)

I encrypted my Samsung Galaxy Nexus several months ago and now I want to decrypt the drive and wipe the information. Nothing I have tried has worked so far.
The option to perform a factory reset through the OS has not worked. I make the selection, enter in my passphrase, the phone reboots into the green robot screen (like it was updating) then when it boots back up it asks me to enter in the encryption passphrase again and I do then it takes me to my un-wiped phone.
I have also attempted to reset it with the ClockworkMod Recovery and it will not work either. Giving an "Error mounting data!" message and similar message for the rest
I have my Nexus unlocked and rooted but it is running stock other than those two.

I woke today to find my Galaxy Nexus in a reboot loop. I went to bed last night and it was working fine but now it just constantly rebooting. Maybe some app auto-updated over night?
I have 4.0.2 ICL53F currently loaded, updated it about two months ago.I recently loaded CWM recovery.

I upgraded to Windows 7 on an older laptop. I plug my phone in and it doesn't recognize anything. I thought win 7 would pickup the driver automatically but I guess not. I tried rebooting the laptop and phone
do I need a driver? Android adb or sdk is it?

I wanted to make my own bootanimation for the Galaxy Nexus.So i pulled a bootanimation out of the ROM i am currently using and replaced the png with my own ones (same size).
Then i pulled the bootanimation back to the rom and flashed it... But the animation doesn't start. At boot up the phone just hangs at a black screen and i had to restore from the backup i made...I uploaded the bootanimation. why it doesn't work?

I an an Android app developer and I would like to attach my Galaxy Nexus to a projector (with VGA input unfortunately) in order to present my applications to other people when they are many. In this case I don't want to just start a presentation or show images, but I want the projector to reproduce what the screen is actually showing.
Is this possible? If yes, how? I've seen that in USA it is possible to buy a micro-usb to VGA adapter that works with Galaxy Nexus, but it is not clear to me whether I'm able to see the screen or only media files. I think that a special app is needed to show the screen.
