None working apps - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

OK guys. I'm on my second phone and here are the apps that do not work properly.
Facebook- cannot update status
Cut the rope- doesn't go past opening scene
Angry birds - same ctr.
Anyone else have these problems or figured out a work around.

I'm hoping so. Me and Samsung usually don't get along. I cane from the bionic and before that the charge and fascinate. Imma swap to a new phone. If I still have problems, probably gonna grab the rezound

I also can run all those without issue...

Have you installed all these from the market or restored from a backup from your previous phone?

Starting fresh

How did it go?

still no luck. I'm having a hard time believing I got 2 bad phones in a row. I hope it updates soon. How else am I gonna kill time and entertain my son. Lok

Son I just rooted and installed the stock deodexed rom and now everything works great

My Facebook crashes on status updates as well.
I just got the phone. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it. Initial set of apps included facebook and am having the issue described. I just initiated a factory reset and am going to install facebook first to see if that fixes it.

That did not fix it. Went to Facebook site and deleted all applications and it started working.

Notification drawer not 100% responsive.

Hey guys.
I've been having some frustrating moments with my notification drawer.
8 out of 10 times it will come down, sometimes I have to swipe 2 or 3 times...so flaky and annoying. Could this be a simple bug? Anyone had this from time to time? Its not a deal breaker, just a little strange. My HTC Incredible S never missed a beat in this area so could be a ICS gremlin.
Thanks in advance.

Which version of android are you on? I'm just curious but I would assume 4.0.2 after reading a bunch of very similar posts just earlier today
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks for your reply.
Yeah. 4.0.2. Stock. No root, no unlocks.
So you've seem others with same issue?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
4.0.2 is generally just considered to be laggy in general
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I have general screen non responsiveness also. Everyone else the same??

I can't find an application called "general non responsiveness" clear cache here. Haha. Jokes dude.
No, what exactly are you referring too?
Thanks guys.

Haven't had this issue at all. Stock 4.0.2 GSM.
Yeah its really taking the enjoyment out of this handset. I mean it feels like I have half a phone that wasn't ready for release. Buggy as. Why I say!!! Why!!!!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I mean I could root the phone but I'm afraid of getting even worse issues. Unless someone can point me to an absolutely flawless release?
Thanks guys.

Google Music in aus

Hey all.. since root/rom install I haven't been able to reinstall the Google music app. Market says its not available in Australia yet it was on my phone when I first purchased. Any ideas or links?

This worked for me when it didn't come with liquid smooth. Should be a link in (here) http://www.androidincanada.ca/news/google-play-music-4-1-513-download/

Sweet thanks! Worked a treat. I've been using liquid for a while now. How u finding it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I thought the customization was great and it was snappy. But since my phone was like 7 days old I switched to unofficial CM9 I'll likely switch back soon though. I'm yet to settle for now.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Yeah true. Customization is great. I updated to v1.3 but its still a bit buggy. Back to 1.25 now. I haven't tried CM yet, from what I last saw its still missing a few basic functions.

Google Wallet and flashing ROMs?

Do we still need to worry about the security element when flashing ROMs and using Google Wallet or is this something of the past?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Any thoughts?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I've never worried about it personally. While not necessarily a crackflasher, I do tend to change roms frequently.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
ive flashed roms and forgot about clearing google wallet and it has worked fine with me i actually just reinstalled it and still no issues
So this means that we probably shouldn't worry about this anymore.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
yes i dont believe you should worry about it too much
Thanks
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I flashed ROMs and then just installed Wallet from the store. No issues. It just gives me "Unsupported Device" warning, but that's because it is rooted. It works fine otherwise.

Are you the Guy over at Thunderbolt whose TB bit the dust?
Haha welcome, I think more GalNex owners had the Thunderbolt than any other phone, we just got hit so bad with waiting for ICS, none of us want that wait and uncertainty ever again.

Been playing with it all day, getting a feel for phone and battery. Ive git a 2350 battery in it i believe, and life seems pretty good. It did update to jb, and im amazed how fast phone is. If i had a good secure wifi tether, id almost not root, lol! Nah, i gotta see what this thing will do. Really liking so far though.

Should i update radios? Runnin liquid now, no 4g.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Do yourself a favor and if you haven't yet already learn adb and fastboot command lines there is no need for a toolkit for this phone. And to answer your radio question unlike the thunderbolt any radio combination works on any ROM you can update or change radios to see if they help you out but it shouldn't matter if you're getting 4g or not. Plus these roms never include radios..well from what I have seen all the radios can be flashed separately through the bootloader or some people have made flashable zips containing them.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
1. Get Gnex
2. Root/Unlock
3. Flash new radios
4. Flash new bootloader
5. Flash new ROM - I would vouch for Codename Android with Faux's kernel
that's my recommendation plan
Brace yourself, flash addiction is comimg.

How to force my Galaxy nexus to update google play to v4?

Hello there are few days not that google has released the latest version of google play. does anyone know how i can force my device to download it? i don't want to install apk files that are not available in the internet
thank you
Its a leak version yet! So no honey for you...

I got the update a few days ago. It's not a leak.
Its not leaked its already being pushed officially has been for the last week, get the apk directly from android police site if you haven't received the update yet, just google search it, google play store 4.0.25 is the latest.

You guys didn't read the op. He said that he does not want to install from APK. So its not rolling out to GNex... Only for newer phones... Therefore its a leak.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I don't think that's necessarily true as it pushed to my GNex before my Nexus 4 or 7.

What's wrong with installing the apk if you don't mind me asking, is something magical going to happen with getting it pushed rather than using the apk from android police.

Absolutely nothing at all. It's 100% safe to install the apk for the Play Store from AP. It's where a majority of us get/install it from. :good:
