Galaxy Nexus 2?

Anyone have any idea if the Galaxy Nexus 2 will be coming out? I would really hate to purchase a regular Galaxy Nexus and have the 2 come out right after

i reckon Google might release one somewhere at the and of this year.
New iPhone is coming out, they already mentioned about five companies working on new Nexus+ Gnex ain't no top dog anymore.
I would be happy if next Nexus will have GS3 specs (2G ram).

Probably, but nobody knows for sure. The one thing that's almost certain is that it won't be called galaxy nexus 2 (no nexus device has ever been 2, they just give it a different name that includes nexus).

So as of right now, it goes in this order? Nexus S, Nexus S 4G, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Note?

Galaxy note isn't a nexus device. It goes G1 (not a nexus but the first GED), Nexus 1, Nexus S/4g, Xoom, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7.

I don't think the Xoom was a Nexus Device, since it was not sold by Google. So it's the Nexus One, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7.

Xoom ( us wifi) ain't a nexus but its a GED. Its more or less a nexus without the nexus branding.
Doesn't have to be sold by Google. The nexus s was not sold by Google. Nor was the galaxy nexus for the first couple months it was out. The Verizon gnex is not sold by Google either. They only recently got into selling devices directly again.
There are versions of the gnex that ship with unsupported by Google builds as well. The device itself is still a gnex but......

[Q] Leaving SGS4G soon :(

I have finally decided that I need to get a better phone, since allot of phones are getting these new hardware such as NFC and all the new bells and whistles. The SGS4G community taught me allot, because they are helpful even though they can be rough on the edges. I might also be planning to sell my phone but not anytime soon but defnitely in a month or two. I'm planning ahead so I don't get all panicked when I pick a new phone. Also if you are interested on buying my phone please contact me, we shall discuss about the price. (Includes Otter box casing for protection, optional but I can give you the unlock code if you have a different carrier, I can pre-install ICS Google AOSP (from Erikmm) or stock Gingerbread with or without root)
Which next Samsung phone should I get?
I could ask on their forums yes but I want the opinion of the people here in my community. I am thinking of either getting the Galaxy Nexus or the Galaxy S III, but I can't decide, each phone has their pro's and con's.
If I get Galaxy Nexus I get direct updates from Google without Samsung/T-Mobile holding firmwares at bay. However if I get GS3 I get ton's of features extending from hardware to exclusive applications.
So please answer it below, you can suggest another brand phone but I highly doubt I'll get it.

The galaxy s 3 is without a doubt the best phone out there right now.
People will argue that the nexus is better because it gets updates faster. Yes, the galaxy nexus will get software updates directly from Google but software can only go so far and the hardware is almost a year old. The s3 has a huge development community so expect to get the latest android version with all the top roms (cm10 aokp miui paranoid android) on it.
If you're willing to wait, get the new nexus or the galaxy note 2.

If you are planning some months ahead then by that time there will be newer phone than the GS3. Which is the best phone now, but just now. That could change easily with the Note or a new Nexus.

They are already talking about a galaxy s 4.
http://www.wptv.com/dpp/news/world/...a-5-inch-screen-one-inch-bigger-than-iphone-5

Getting a new phone now is pretty dumb. Waiting til later this year or even the beginning of next year to hop on a quad core s4 or exynos is the ideal thing to do. I'm talking the s4 pro with the new architecture by the way. You'll also get the new adreno gpu or what Sammy offers depending on what device you choose. For instance many signs are pointing to that new LG Optimus G being a nexus device. That would be a gigantic leap from the sgs4g, even more so than the gsiii, by a lot. I'm just advising that you wait it out a couple more months cus it'll be worth it

You can always make sgs4g a mp3 player aka Galaxy player 4.0 lol

That's funny. I have the galaxy s3 and I use my sgs4g as a music player because of voodoo sound. Mind you the sound on the US s3 is not bad but could be better like the international one.

S4 will have exyones 5450 and t Mali 658 ......12mp camera and full hd screen or higher

Take a look at Tmobs website. You can get an S3 16GB for 99 bucks or the 32GB for 149. It's a pretty damn good phone and at that price you can just sell it when the S4 finally hit the US a year from now. If your not under contract and have some cash to throw at it get the international version.

Yeah I'm not under a contract :\ I might as well get it on a contract cause I definitely don't have 589.98 dollars lying around LOL. I might get the 16 GB version since I don't really put stuff in my phone, everything is in the cloud except for my music. I also have my old 16 GB card that came along with my SGS4G. So I might get a contract to get a lowered price.
This is what I found

Well I did say if you have some cash. lol Not being under contract opens up your options quite a bit though. I switched over to ATT about a year ago cause TMOB where I live sucks. I just unlocked my 4G and used it for a few months. When the Skyrocket came out I was able to score a refurbished one for 10 bucks with a new 2 year plan. The thing is if your a good costumer you can get that same deal again in about a year. You'll have to talk to upper level CS but they always will do it. Not sure if the same thing works with TMOB or Verizon.

Hence... This forum.

You should wait a month or so to see is Sony, LG, and HTC have in the pipe in the way in a nexus. Then decide between those the s3, note 2, and incredible x...
If you are planning to keep a phone for 2 years then you should have the best roster possible... I know you asked only about Samsung... and I love Samsung but I am growing ever tired of their plastic builds and home button...

Come Up of the year.

Recently went to a yard sale and found a Nexus S for sale $5 Guy said his kid messed it up that it didn't turn on. I thought to my self what the heck and bought it when I got home I went on XDA. It was a simple thing all I had to do was access boot screen and do a reset. Working great..
But now i have a question to any who read this. Now so far all I know is that is Sprint Nexus S but I see there is also a 4g I know its a dumb question but where would I find it. Now my new mission for the week is finding out before I start flashing Roms. So far I have a Galaxy 2, a Nexus S, hopefully soon Galaxy 4 and the phone that started my addition Galaxy S Captivate.
Any one have any good ROM,apps, and kernal recommendations would appreciate.

yes !

I certainly hope that now that 4.4 supports Ir blasters we will see custom ROMs that support it as well. Idc of Samsung doesn't update to 4.4 but I sure hope the community does

Maybe next year when android 5 updates come to the galaxy s5 comes out we will see a 4.4 kitkat on our tablet. Priority will always be new phones and tablets. But im pretty sure we will get it some day. Also I think there is a problem with incompatibility from snote from note 3..a lot of complains will happen if the note 10.1 upgrade with it and people cang open files

Which model are you guys talking about?
I have a GN GT-N8013 ( 64G GNote 10.1 original ) and am still waiting for Samsung to come out with 4.3.
Am happy with the basic note but would really love multiple user support.

It's not likely the 8013 will see anything beyond 4.3.

Call it insider knowledge.

Note 2 and SGS3 having similar internals are supposed to get upto Android 4.4 Kitkat..so why not?
But having said that both these phones have only just started getting 4.3 few days back in some regions, so who knows Kit Kat can take couple of years to come to Note N8000, when Google release android 5
Its really a shame on Samsung, they should only release a limited number of devices each year for which they can release timely updates..

As it sits right now, we are 3 OS versions back. We will get an update in the (near?) future. Will we get 4.4? Probably. Will it be before the end of 2014? Right now it seems unlikely.

I'm living in the Netherlands and my Galaxy Note 10.1 N8010 runs on Android 4.1.2. (The latest available version in the Netherlands)
When will the N8010 get android 4.2 or higher.

Wappiesoft, That was the exact same question as I asked^^

I dont think samsung is considering an update for the tablet. If it was the case we would have seen at least a couple test roms.
But i still didnt give up on wishful thinking.
Anyways if this tablet dont see any updates, I will never buy a samsung again unless it is nexus.

They've already said it will get 4.3 and 4.4, we'll get 4.3 sometime before the end of the year. 4.4 would be like before summer lol.

i wont fall into the same trap again. thats the reason holding me back from buying the note 2014.

Sorry guys if this is going a *little* bit off-topic (I'm going to talk about Android 4.3, rather than 4.4, but hey, still about an update for our awesome yet forgotten 10.1....)
It's a quote from a reply on other thread, by me.
I recently spoke to a Samsung rep (Samsung's website live chat) and with a Samsung rep (in person). Both said:
"it will be updated, at least to Android 4.3, but we cannot tell you when".
So I'm pretty sure we are getting 4.3 at some point. Heck, if the Note 2 and S III got it, it's only reasonable that our Note 10.1 gets it. It was the flagship tablet of its (short) time, such as the Note 2 and S III being flagships/high-end. Everyone's been saying that Samsung won't update it to force us go for the Note 10.1 2014 edition, so why did the Note 2 and Galaxy S III get the update (ok, ok, Galaxy Gear blabla)? Wouldn't they force you to go for a Note 3 and Galaxy S IV? You get my point.
So, be prepared to wait (wait... wait... wai...), and official news about the updates *cough kitkat* are coming.
My guess is: Android 4.3 and no Android 4.4, unfortunately but thankfully.

[Q] AT&T Visual Voicemail for Nexus 5 apk

Hi,
I recently just switched over from the iPhone 5! Finally! Lol. I have just about everything else google except for the phones. I am dearly missing the native visual voicemail on the iPhone. I found out AT&T has an app for it on the android market but I cannot for the love of me download it since it's not supported for my device ID. I used apk downloader and it's a no go. Has anyone been able to do this yet? I know the G2 is supported but not the Nexus 5 yet.
Best,
John

There is a visual voice-mail thread here somewhere for AT&T. I bumped into it a few days ago. I'm sure searching general forum and the apps forum for it would help you find it quickly.
