[HD Mini General] codiak:
Install Android using pc?

For now, running Android from SD Card is the only way.
[HD Mini General] amj_0:
mm ok but can i copy android from someone who already install android on sd card then use registry editor or something to fix it....lol
[HD Mini General] codiak:
There is no registry in android ;)

If it dont start from your SD Card, it wont help to copy files from someone other.

The issue is the sd card, not the files.
[HD Mini General] amj_0:
i think its extract files issue..im will change my sd card THANKS
[HTC Inspire 4G] Deleted member 3925726:
Early apologies if this is in the wrong section but i couldnt find anything when i tried searching this topic.

Anyway, my old htc phones (windows mobile), the screen would turn on and i would get a preview of a text i just received.

on the inspire, the screen remains off even though the notification noises and vibrations play.

is there any way to make the screen turn on as well ?

it drives me nutts that i cant just glance at my phone!! i have to turn it on then do the unlocking, etc.

any help is much appreciated!
[HTC Inspire 4G] tmt64:
I don't know about the stock HTC SMS app but there's an option for this in GoSMS. I highly recommended it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
Or you can try sms popup.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
+1 - Great app!
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
Handcent has screen wake option. And it by far is better than stock messaging app anyway, a billion options to use.
[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
Can't get into handset, it just looks too ugly - even with the skins.

They need to update handcrnt for higher resolution/larger displays.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
What he said!

Handcent, second to none for SMS!:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Deleted member 3925726:
thanks a lot guys!

i will definitely try out the apps you've mentioned.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Deleted member 3925726:
umm?

im loving go sms pro. very clean interface.

however, i accidentally deleted some text messages.

and i dont see a deleted items folder.

is there any way to recover deleted texts??
[HTC Inspire 4G] one7dchevy:
another vote for handcent here..
[HTC Inspire 4G] rotchcrocket04:
Go SMS Pro seems pretty promising thus far. I hated Handcent because of the overall 'old' feel and sluggish performance. Go SMS was a little laggy but I bumped the performance down to the "middle" level and it seems to work quite well now.

If you didn't use the backup that Go SMS offers I don't think you can get them back. Maybe they're hidden somewhere but I wouldn't know how to go about finding them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Twiggi:
If you don't want to change messaging apps, you might want to look at SMSawake or SMS Screen WakeUp.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Brownsreds:
I'm using Chomp SMS. Let's you preview text and lot's of other options.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] integral.integrity:
I was wondering if anyone knows of a way I can disable the low battery warning on the Mytouch Slide that begins popping up once the battery decreases to 25%. I've searched through the settings and haven't noticed a place to turn it off.

I searched these forums and google and can't seem to find anything about it. If someone knows of an app or script I can sideload my wife would appreciate it. This slide is running the stock Froyo just released by HTC.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JTownBrewer:
If you are running stock firmware (or maybe if you have "my account" installed on any rom), try going into My Account, Alerts tab, disable the Power Saver option.

The phone will still alert you at 15% but not at 30% any more.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCr15:
At home, when connected to WiFi, I seem to lose the connection to Google, for example for Google Talk. My WiFi connection is strong, but if I leave my phone for 10 minutes, when I turn the screen on the WiFi indicator is white and I have to open Google Talk to get it to then connect.

Wifi policy is set to never sleep. When on regular data connection I have no problem.

I'm on CM RC4 with Netarcy 1.3.2 and I also recently got a new wireless router as an AP for my bedroom, so I wonder if it's to do with settings within that?

Anyone with any ideas?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WebEyE:
Old thread, same Problem. Anybody solved this?
[Nexus One General] lance713:
I think I'm kind of having sellers remorse, even though I sold it for $200 with it having some cosmetic damage (i'm usually very careful with my phones but i dropped my N1 like 1000 times!!)

i actually feel like I ripped off the guy even though it was in perfect working order and i threw in my extra battery and a car charger...

im gonna miss my trackball and colored notifications... PLEASE DONT LET ME REGRET THIS LG!!!

using an extremely old Nokia 5300 I had back in '07 till I get it ... yeah serious sellers remorse kicking it right now! hah
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
You will regret it!

Get the Arc instead
[Nexus One General] Bloodflame:
I don't think I could ever let go of my N1. I feel like it's become a part of me! :p

No doubt about it, sooner or later I will feel the need to upgrade. That's just the way technology works. But I always like to have a secondary device to fall back on in case of any problems - if my main device gets lost, stolen, damaged - even if it's just so much as a dead battery and I desperately need to make a call. Having a second phone can be a life saver. Plus, the Nexus One is so versatile in terms of modding. With so many ROM's to choose from, and still quite a bit of active development within the community - this phone seems far from dead. Google created an amazing piece of technology, and even when their sales strategy may have flopped, those who have had the pleasure of owning one know just how special it really is.

I recently parted ways with my aging HTC Magic which I kept as my backup device, so maybe I'm subconsciously considering an upgrade after all. There are so many options now, I wouldn't even know where to begin. G2X, Atrix, Nexus S, Evo 3D, etc... But one thing's for sure - my Nexus One is far too important to me to let go of.

I wish you the best of luck! And hey, you could always buy another used N1 if you begin having Nexus withdrawals :)
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Why exactly?
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
All plastic

Very low loudspeaker

Freezings and random reboots

not so good 8mp

Dual core still need OS 2.4, it's still 2.2

Arc:

So stylish!

way louder speaker than N1 and optimus 2x

unlockable bootloader soon

Brilliant 8mp

Exellent bravia screen

OS 2.3 out of the box

Sweet price

I am getting one next tuesday ;)

And will get the Sensation in September
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
Link to the Arc?
[Nexus One General] lance713:
This is true, this was actually going to be the first smartphone I kept before/after buying a new one but I JUST moved and rather make my new phone free (I qualify for a full upgrade) so I can put that towards some new furniture. 200 isn't a lot, but it can get me a kitchen table!

Hmmm, sounds tempting but probably not available for T-Mobile USA users!

and I am DEFINITELY not going to keep using this dumb phone any longer than I have to...
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
Here's the official page:http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/mobilephones/overview/xperiaarc?cc=us&lc=en#view=overview
[Nexus One General] Rod3:
Sadly, according to the specs listed, this does not appear to support TMO's 3G.:(
[Nexus One General] britoso:
c'mon Sony, post the CPU and GPU on the specs page, wtf?

Is the "BE" picture/video enhancements realtime or post-processing ?
[Nexus One General] JHaste:
Arc looks nice but "1GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 205 GPU, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon"

sorry no thanks...
[Nexus One General] JimSocks:
Im probably gonna get g2x because of all the bands it supports. I think it will make a great travel phone too once unlocked.
[Nexus One General] draugaz:
It is just the "plain old" 1GHz MSM8255 / Adreno 205. While still sufficient for most uses, it is hardly a cutting edge.

But the biggest problem in my view is the internal flash storage, just a tiny 320mb.

It should be perfect otherwise to make me want one. But it isn't.
[Nexus One General] Profondo_Rosso:
I feel ya. I just listed my Nexus on ebay today, and I am getting the LG. Probably buying it outright for 499 so I can sell it when something else strikes me in about 8 months, however I will miss my N1 for sure. The N1 is a great phone.
[Nexus One General] NardVa:
Don't regret it. Going from a Nexus One to a T Mobile GX2 is a definite upgrade. You're getting a bigger screen, faster processor, better camera on the back, front facing camera, more responsive touchscreen that supports multitouch, and a faster 3G/4G radio for HSPA+, and the phone will have AT&T 3G/4G bands....you made a good choice....
[Nexus One General] phburks:
I'm also considering the G2X, but probably just save up and buy it outright and keep my N1 as a backup.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
You should be fine with that upgrade...keep us posted on how it did compare to your N1.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
I would probably consider the G2X if it had a screen superior to my Nexus One. It may be better in every way (minus build quality I assume), but I'm a screen whore.

My next phone will probably be a Samsung one. Yes, they may be bad when it comes to updates, but they've been kicking ass with hardware. Until someone beats this, everyone has lost. Just kidding everyone~
[Nexus One General] erikiksaz:
Oddly enough I've got a N1 and a Samsung Galaxy S 4G in front of me, and the N1 has whiter whites than the Galaxy S. Everything was turned on max brightness, too. I was a bit taken back, I was expecting the galaxy S to have blown it out of the water.

The only thing that sucks hard about our N1 is the fact that the actual LED screen is a couple millimeters below the glass. This makes pinpoint clicking a bit tougher at odd angles, in addition to all the extra glare/reflection from the extra layer of space between the glass and LED.
[Nexus One General] TheSneakerWhore:
Sorry, but as an N1, vibrant, 4g vibrant owner, Samsung has done hardware justice. The samoled is just the bomb. I just wish the updates came on time as it were.
[Nexus One General] tr.slate:
Im back on the N1 train after a trip to g2x land. Got 2 different units with bad screen bleed. Plus I really missed the notification system on the N1. Also, I always thought having a larger screen would be a great boon to any phone, but the g2x felt really awkward in my hand. Probably just too used to using the N1...
[Nexus One General] vicksslc:
G2X hurts ear -poor messaging and email

I just bought the G2x. Love everything about it - but yes the first thing I noticed when talking on the handset is that the edge is somewhat sharp. Due to the fact that the speaker is right up at the top - you have to move the phone to a position that forces the edge on the ear. It's very uncomfortable - so I use speaker phone a lot so far. I'm in day 2 and love everything about the phone.

I got rid of the stock messaging and stock email and downloaded k-9 email (due to the fact t-mobile forces their signature on stock email). Also stock t-mobile email had some bugs with IMAP and wouldn't load all my messages on the server - only the recent ones.

I downloaded Go SMS Pro for messaging. I was ticked that they got rid of the ability on this LG phone to choose group, contacts and recent when text messaging with the stock version. Those features are in the Go sms pro and many more. Overall very pleased with the phone.

I'm keeping it because I like the hdmi out and high res camera. My wifes Samsung (wejust bought same day) is slightly smaller, lighter, but no hdmi, lower res camera (still great resolution) .

I'll keep you posted.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Just saw this article at tmobnews

"Has The G2x Been Pulled From Store Shelves Due To Quality Issues?

We're receiving word from some of our ninjas that the T-Mobile G2x has been pulled from T-Mobile.com due to quality control issues over the device. The G2x has been plagued with random reboots, light leaks and various minor control issues since it was first released to the public. While we can't say for certain that one of those quality control issues is behind the... Read more »"

[Nexus One General] bpm2000:
Any backlight bleed on your model? I was going G2x, then decided to wait for the S2, and now it looks like S2 isn't going to tmobile (plus the unlocked price is crazy) so I am back on the G2x train - just waiting to hear how the hardware issues smooth out with later build dates and for a stable CM to come out!
[Nexus One General] salamandar:
Biggest mistake of my mobile life!

On the 23rd of April I went to the T-Mobile store in Glendale CA to Purchase the LG G2x smartphone, they were out of stock and directed me to they're Los Feliz store in Los Angeles CA, I drove to said store and made my purchase. The device was defective (rebooting and light bleeding from side of screen) so I exchanged it on the 26th of April at the Foothill store, this 2nd device was also defective (same issues and random shutdowns). I decided to try again and exchanged this device as well on the 30th of April. This device was also defective (same issues, random shutdowns, and back cover would get too hot to keep in pocket). After much frustration I decided to return said device and get my money back (as i was still within my 30 days buyer's remorse period) at the Foothill location. This was the 19th Of May 2011. No refund appeared on my statement, after waiting a few days and checking again on the 23rd still no refund (the amount was $264.50). I decided to call customer support on the evening of the 23rd at 8pm. I was on the phone until 9:30pm and had been transferred to 3 different departments, finally ending up in Customer Loyalty, who finally said they could not help me and I must contact the retail store, they explained that online sales and retail sales were seperate even though they are the same company.

I called the Foothill store the following morning and was told that they could not help me and I must call the customer support line. I decided to try the Customer Loyalty dept. one more time. It was at this point we discovered that the store had not refunded me but had actually charged an additional 264.50 to my card. The Customer Loyalty representative then decided it would be wise to call the store himself, he did so and was hung up on after explaining the situation (which leads me to believe they are aware of the issue and are ducking it).

He then proceeded to explain again that I had no recourse but to contact the store and the stores only reported to District Managers (which were notoriously hard to contact), he also was not able to give me any contact information for said District Manager Dept. He then actually suggested I hire a lawyer and threaten the retail store.

In summation: the G2X is a colossal pile of CRAP!

TMobile has got they're head so far up they're ass they can smell what they had for lunch!

DO NOT BUY THE G2X :eek:
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Thanks for this.

This is what scares the crap out of me about purchasing a second-hand G2x.

I have $400 in Amazon credit, which unfortunately can not be used on wireless.amazon.com but it can be used on amazon.com (which people sell their phones on).

http://www.amazon.com/Dual-Core-LG-Google-Unlocked/dp/B004X6UENA

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B004X6UENA

I have $400 in free money and I'm scared to get a G2x. Who knows how much bleed/rebooting those devices will have :(
[Nexus One General] tr.slate:
yeah, be afraid. be very afraid.

personally ive decided to wait until the tegra 3 comes along. 5x faster than the tegra 2, and not that far off. the nexus can make it until then i hope, still chugging along.
[Nexus One General] salamandar:
I'm tempted by the Sensation (provided they retroactively unlock the bootloader) for the battery management alone, reviews show almost no battery drain during "passive" time. And if its even close to N1 build quality (HTC) I may be tempted.
[Nexus One General] TigOldBitties:
I read on anythingbutiphone (can't post links yet) that it proved to be only twice as fast as the current tegra. Any info on what phones/carriers will use this technology?
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Well I'll definitely be skipping the G2x.

I'm waaay to scared to risk getting one with bad screen bleeding or random rebooting. :eek:

And they're taking waaay too long to get Gingerbread out. For a stock device, their slowness is absolutely ridiculous. It should have shipped with Gingerbread in the first place. :mad:

(It's too bad the G2x CM7 build still has so many issues...)

I'm thinking I'll get a used Sensation 4G with my $400 Amazon credit and trade it in when Tegra 3 and/or Ice Cream Sandwich phones come out.

Because you know all current phones will never ever get ICS, or at least it will take 6-10 months or more for the Sensation to get it.

I just hope the Sensation 4G for T-Mobile is bootloader unlocked. A Sensation 4G with CM7 would be amazing. :cool:
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Same here...a used unlocked boot Sensation would be a super N1 upgrade on T-Mobile 4G!
[Nexus One General] TigOldBitties:
Agreed, I have been wanting to get the G2x for the longest. I've seen a few people report good experiences with their G2x, but I've read so much more about people having issues that I don't want to risk getting burned.
[Nexus One General] Dameon87:
Hey guys. All I've seen really in this thread is negativity regarding the G2x. While it does have a few issues, the community is actively working to get them taken care of.

Of note:

Random Reboots from time to time on some devices (Not all, and some recent kernels seem to fix the problem.)

Screen Bleed; The device I have has a TINY bit of screen bleed on one corner (Right bottom corner.) if the device is on a dark background, in a dark room with brightness 50% or greater.... I consider that pretty negligible; not sure about you.

Either way. The phone does have a few problems, but they hopefully will be fixed next week with an OTA update. (Which we also believe is GB)

My advice is wait for the update, and the devices to be sold again via t-mo and give it a try then.

The device is not terrible in any way. It's very fast, smooth, and is overall awesome.

Granted, maybe QC wasn't the best on them, LG is making some efforts to correct the issue with the next update.

All of these "horror stories" you are reading are a bit exaggerated in my opinion.
[Nexus One General] tjhart85:
My girlfriends parents both got a G2x and have had zero issues with them.

I got one and my first one had zero data after a day. The phone would say 'Emergency Only' or something along the lines of 'No Operator.' I gave the phone the benefit of the doubt and got my SIM card replaced. No go.

Got it replaced. My replacement phone doesn't get data on Edge/2G, but works great with 4G (I think this phone lumps 3G and 4G together). This phone also has some screen bleeding. The bleeding isn't horrible at all and I'd probably ignore it if it weren't for the other issues.

I'm hoping third time'll be the charm (bought from Amazon Wireless, so can't take it back to tmo, so I've gotta wait for it to get shipped to me). If it doesn't work this time, I'll probably return it & keep using my Vibrant until the Sensation 4G gets CyanogenMod & then get that.

And what if that update doesn't resolve peoples issues (neither of the phones i used had a rebooting issue)? They will pass their return window and effectively be screwed and forced to only have in-warranty work done.

If QC sucks so bad that it has all these horror stories, maybe it really says something about the company and do you really want to give this company your hard earned money? Even if you get the phone on sale from Tmo, they're still paying LG for the phone (granted it's probably less than we'd pay retail, but still, it's more than Tmo is charging you).

The phone is really sleek and is fast as hell. The Sensation 4G has more RAM and such, but that's mainly because Sense requires it. The G2x flies & everything opens quickly and from what I've seen it'll actually outperform the Sensation 4G, even at a lower clock cycle. Stock, this phone flies like a CM ROM. I can't wait for a Stable CM ROM on this phone (provided my third phone functions properly).
[Nexus One General] gimiento:
Agreed, the g2x is a bad ass phone. I have one, and don't have any issues, only a very small amount of bleed. Its only going to get better with software updates.

I am thinking of selling it however and sticking with my n1. The g2x is just a little too big for me, my nexus is easier to hold and carry around. The screen on thx g2x is amazing and the touchscreen is much better and more accurate than the n1, but i may abandon ship and wait for the n3. Hopefully the makers will figure out how to get dual core and a 4 inch screen in a smaller build. What to do, what to do.
[Nexus One General] platinumandroid:
I have had the nexus one since day one, it has been an amazing phone, the G2X however is a piece of junk,its fast, has a beautiful display, and the touch screen is very accurate but even a small amount of screen bleed is totally unacceptable.I have been through six G2X'S and every single one has been a pain,random reboots,freezing constantly, and the screen bleeding really bothers me,if it weren't for the screen bleeding I would just keep the phone and deal with the other issues but the fact remains that after two whole months the bleeding has not been addressed by either LG or Tmobile and in the year 2011,with the smart phone industry being so competitive and the devices costing a good amount of money I don't see how anyone can accept this device considering if any company believes that consumers will accept this and continue to purchase their devices they will continue to try and get away with it.So for me personally and my advice is to pass on this phone and look for something more solid,i mean we can all agree that every smart phone will have its fair share of issues but if you don't hold yourself and the companies you choose to do business with accountable you will continue to get burned.So I have decided to go with the HTC Sensation because I gave LG a chance,wait no I gave LG six chances and in my opinion they failed to deliver so I have decided to support HTC.Just my opinion.

Sorry for the rant guys and gals.Cheers
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Thanks for this. That's the last nail in the coffin for me regarding the G2x.

No reason at all to get it over the Sensation.
[Nexus One General] itslinx:
I'm not buying that every G2X phone will have something wrong with it. I've waited long enough to try a new phone and i'm willing to take a chance on the G2X. I still love my Nexus One, but it's time for something new. While I appreciate the heads up on the bad experiences some people have provided, I think i'm going to try out the G2X.
[Nexus One General] tjhart85:
Third time appears to be the charm for me! My third phone seems to be functioning great. Theres still some screen bleeding, but it's only noticable on a pure black screen with brightness turned up most of the way (I'll deal).

Coming from the Vibrant, I am very happy with this phone (now that it's working). GPS loaded up in about 30 seconds, which isn't bad I don't think. By the time I'm about to get out of my neighborhood, it's got the directions up, which is good enough for me!

If you don't mind taking the chance of having to return the phone I say get it & give it a try, it's an amazing phone and even stock, things seem to work pretty well (and no Touchwiz/Sense/MotoBlur/etc...!)
[Nexus One General] itslinx:
I guess time will tell. I sold my Nexus One for $250 today and ordered the G2X for $150 from a website. What problems did you have specifically?
