so far I see:

JellyBelly (now built from source)
RootzBoat
dmeadows013's build
SlimBean

First two sound the best, third one sounds good but it took the dev forever to figure out how to build it successfully so no promises there. Last one says Google Now and video camera don't work.

and from xda:

mROM

Hopefully Google starts shipping the GNex soon so I can buys one

race2c · 07-11-2012, 05:31 AM

android tablet recommendations wanted please.

criteria:

used mainly for traveling
SD card slot (if possible, more internal storage = better)
wi-fi (bare minimum, or CDMA for VZW)
cheaper = better (doesnt have to be top-of-the line, but some development)

Was going to say N7 since it's only $199 or $250 and comes with Jelly Bean. Unlockable, 720p screen, etc. You get a bamf quad core (w/ 12 core gpu) Asus for the price of a chinese knock off lol

But no sd slot and 7" if that matters.

chevyrado14 · 07-11-2012, 12:54 PM

i think im goona try bugless beast jb rom. said its the closest thing to an ota.

Manbearpig · 07-11-2012, 01:47 PM

DFW

Not sure which color to get though
Only works on Sprints 3G in my area

chevyrado14 · 07-11-2012, 01:48 PM

Cez★ · 07-11-2012, 02:08 PM

Cam just get a nexus tablet. No future waffling. Don't see why SD slot needed

Is this for a VZW upgrade or a new one from Sprint? If Sprint then FIDIL, if VZW then :datLockdown:

I switched back to my stock battery for a while since all the cases fit nicer with it. So far it hasn't died on me any earlier than I'm used to

Using the blue chinese case right now. I cut the headphone hole a little bigger and it looks good. Only downside now are that the buttons don't stick out much so it's a bitch to find them w/o looking at them.

JayBo · 07-11-2012, 04:16 PM

Got new phone. Activated. Then the BS started lol.
No data connection. At all. Had full service. My bb, and Jen's x2 had 3G, me, nothing.
Call VZW and bitch them out.
They say they are sending technicians to my area to fix the towers.
30 min later, phone is working correctly.

Except now I can't root it :roflblah:

**stonehenge** · 07-11-2012, 04:21 PM

my dads Bionic wouldn't install anything from the market but his browser, email, etc all were working so data was ok

ended up being some fgt hidden moto setting that queues app installs until you get to wifi. Only it doesn't tell you that, it just says "Downloading..." with a flashing progress bar forever.

JayBo · 07-11-2012, 04:23 PM

Mine wasn't checked. I saw that setting though.
That damn Mediaserver app or whatever it is, is EATING my battery.

**stonehenge** · 07-11-2012, 04:26 PM

the DLNA shit? You should be able to turn that off somewhere so it doesn't pop up everytime you join wifi.

JayBo · 07-11-2012, 04:33 PM

its #1 in the list of things using battery life.

Mediaserver is what it's called
