    Can i change to google without losing anything on my phone?
    Mine is stock too, its just the google version. The Canadian carrier versions are yakjuxx which get updates from Samsung. The Google versions are yakju which get updates directly from google. I flashed mine to make it yakju, its not too difficult but it will wipe the phone.

    Man there's so many options. You can undervolt the cpu and gpu. Kill one of the cores. Etc...

    I use interactive governor and balanced power mode.

    Max cpu: 1228
    Min cpu: 384
    Screen off: 729
    fsync on
    battery life extender: 96


    From there the rom takes charge. Stock roms are limited, but basically use auto brightness, shorten the screen off time, disable wifi/bt/location/sync when not in use

    Quick question, before I unlock the bootloader to flash to 4.0.4 i know it will this erase my whole phone, media, data etc? I have already backed my info up using wugfresh. For some of the restores though it says i need to root but I want to get the OTA of JB though.. should i upgrade first then root and restore? Thanks

    Not sure if you can restore if you upgrade to JB first. JB should be an OTA which will not wipe your data. You can restore on 4.0.4 first.

    Well, I used Market Enabler and faked t-mobile, that's how I installed it via the market instead of sideloading using an apk. However, that's as far as I got. I know I can't add a Canadian credit card to it, but at least I'd get the $10 if I could set it up and use that I think.

    I did this months ago. I downloaded the apk. Try doing that instead. Does the Google Wallet app even open for you?

    After downloading the apk, I used Market Enabler like you and it worked, and I got the free $10. I was so upset to learn I couldn't add more funds to it. I read you can buy a vanilla Credit Card from Shoppers and load it if you have a US address, or I think some people fake the address. But after paying for the prepaid card and exchange rate, I doubt it's worth it.

    The open button is missing if I bring up the app via the market also. It's weird.

    If I'm on a custom rom, is my phone then a yakju or could it still be a yakjux? Does it have more to do with the bootloader?

    If I am then maybe I need to change it, hopefully I can just do a nandroid backup, fix, then restore.

    I haven't, as I don't want to lose any data on my phone. I live on my phone, and I can't really afford to have it wiped right now. I'd much rather just get it the "normal" way, however I don't like how long I've been waiting for it.

    It sure is. I've been using minco lately, it's clean and fast...way better battery life than my last rom
