If you own a Samsung Galaxy Nexus and would like to unlock the true full screen potential of your device, you may want to take a look at this mod, discovered in the XDA Forums by our good friend to the north, Tom Gray of AndroidInCanada. Thanks to an article posted by Mr. Gray, we’ve got a step-by-step guide for the process, which was posted in the forums by mrx8836350.
