★☆★ The Official "I got my Galaxy Nexus" Thread ★☆★

[empoweredh22]

Same pros and cons as any other Android phone, although ROM selection is pretty much non-existent at this point. (I think there might be one available.) I will say wireless tethering won't work so if that's important to you, don't bother. Verizon seems to have disabled it at the kernel level, although CM9 may be able to circumvent that problem at some point. I'd say if you're ever going to do it do it soon because the unlocking process resets your phone to factory default, so why do your setup procedure twice.

If I bought my Gnex last week can I still get this $100 rebate you speak of? I haven't heard of that before. I just call customer service and ask them to apply code S2 to my account? I did pay for it on my account rather than using a card at the store so theoretically they could still do the credit since they haven't billed me yet.

I bought the OG Droid on launch day back in 2009, and then upgraded to the Droid 3 in July hoping that phone would just blow me away like the Droid did in comparison to the G1. Not so. I liked the D3 considerably, but I was still left dissatisfied. The wife and I were both eligible for upgrades, so we took advantage of the D3 BoGo for $199. Fast forward to last Thursday and I realize that my father-in-law (who has a feature phone he uses maybe once a week and is also on our Family Plan) is eligible for an upgrade. I asked if I could use his upgrade and he said sure.

Aaaaand I'm now the proud owner of a G.Nex. Holy CRAP this phone is awesome! This is the upgrade I was looking for when I went from the D1 to the D3. Wow!

Just got my Nexus from FedEx and it's updating now. I got the $100 3g to 4g credit and live in Ohio. It's been a good ride with my OG Droid but I'm loving this phone more and more the longer I play with it. I think I've been to the Verizon store 4 times since Thursday just to play with it in anticipation of delivery today. dancedroid

My GN just arrived this afternoon, a day early! I am now playing around with it & getting it set up. It is a beautiful phone.

I might order mine tonight! So here's my plan: call cs and ask them for the early upgrade that I am eligible for to the Gnex. When you upgrade you get $50 off, and if I do the 3g to 4g that'll bring me to 150 bucks. Can I get that price of the phone billed to my account?

For me the 3G to 4G is credited as a bill credit, not an instant discount and it didn't even show on my account until after checkout. But I saw it with my own two eyes!

Yes you can bill it to you account! That's what I did

Mine came on Saturday. I'm so in love with this thing! Here it is in its new home with its new outfit and matching accessories

(I'm fairly certain that the fact that I busted out the DSLR for a photo makes me a bigger nerd than the matching accessories do)
