probably because XDA is in fact, right

Not only they are but they have a legal obligation to make people mostly respect the laws. They allow a lot of margin (technically a lot of the rom repacking with samsung's property for example isn't exactly legal) so the XDA hating because complying to a few simple and fair licenses is "too hard" is rather dumb.

Suppose this topic will be moved to a proper location or closed also :P

[Nook Color General] mbear10:
When I look at my autonooted Nook Color's battery use option from the NookColor Tools app, it shows that something called "Cellular Standby" has used up 86% of all power used by the battery.

Is "Cellular Standby" the name the Nook Color uses to identify the wireless connection? If it is, that's OK. I know wireless sucks up a lot of juice.

If it isn't is there a way to shut off the Cellular Standby? I'd hate to think of all that power being used for no good reason.

Thanks!

Purchased with 1.1.0 software from B&N. Used Autonooter 3.0 to root the device. No updates since then.
[Nook Color General] byronczimmer:
When I was in Customized Nookie Froyo (SD version 4), it was named 'Wireless'.

On Customized Nookie Froyo (SD version 6), it is named 'cellular standby'.

I'm hoping you are correct and it's just a misleading rename.
[Nook Color General] rigy73:
That seems a bit strange, because in normal usage, maximum power is always used by display, but it can be true if u are just streaming music on your nook or if u left it unused for a few days and left the wifi on.

Otherwise that's something i would never expect to see on my nook.
[Nook Color General] byronczimmer:
My wireless and display usually duked it out for top honors of battery usage. Of course I tend to run with my display all the way down in brightness and I'm banging on the wireless a lot when I'm doing set up (and having to redownload 20-30 apps from Market and Amazon).

I'm still wrestling with Nookie Froyo Custom a bit, at least the v6 release.

I'm S-OFF with clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 recovery, I had oxygen 2.0.3 installed, with oxygen table.

I wanted to try leedroid rom, so I first applied the stock table via PB99IMG + hboot method, then I flashed the alignment zip for the ext part, then I flashed the leedroid v305 rom.

After rebooting, it stayed 10 minutes on the "why so serious" screen, then I pulled off the battery and repeated: same story.

I can access to hboot and recovery without problems, I tried to flash other roms (the previous oxygen, the new one, a rooted stock) but they all give the same error.

I didn't make a nandroid this time, so I can't revert...

What can I do?

Hello dear friends!

Im pretty upset, 13 months ago i bought my nexus one directly from google, yesterday my vibrating motor started to fail! :(

Its weak, and loose... I need one replacement, so I searched the net and I only found this site offering it, and as you can se the minimun buy number is 5...

I dont need 5 replacement motors (i hope) so, is there another site where i can buy only one OEM replacement?

I would appreciate if you guys ley me know!

Thak you very much!

http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=Vi...g+Motor&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313 you can buy one that looks identical to the nexus one it should work. I doubt HTC makes their own motors so I think you have a pretty safe bet if you go with one that looks like it. I looked at a few and this one looks just like it http://cgi.ebay.com/Pager-and-Cell-...697?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4158239ef1

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donchele:
can you please do me a last favor, is it just me or the motor on Global direct parts is different than the one on ebay?

Edit

I found this image in google, and in an approach of it, we are able to see the replacement:

is it just me or it is the one provided by Global direct parts (because of its slots)

please let me know your opinion!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
To me they look really similar why don't you ask this ebay seller http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-Nexus-One-W...0561840998?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43a6d5d766 he's selling his Broken Nexus with water damage I'm sure if you offer 10 bucks with shipping he might sell the motor to you. In one of the pictures you can tell he already open the bottom part trying to fix it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trschober:
I'm sorry to necro this thread.

I'm just confirming my success replacing my faulty vibrating motor with the ebay part from this thread. It's not exactly identical: the rotating metal piece is a bit smaller than the original and the exact shape of the plastic is different, but it fits perfectly, and the vibration feels solid, even though it vibrates differently, it's better that a failing motor.

this is the link in case anyone needs it

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donchele:
GREAT!!! thanks for leting us now about it!

One question, Does the vibration feel stronger?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trschober:
It's hard to describe.

Considering that my old motor vibrated like a sledgehammer on crack, this one does feel "weaker"

the new motor feels "sharper", something like if the vibration came from behind the screen, instead of from the surface.

It's really hard to describe it, but overall, even though it feels different, I'm very happy with it since it's now usable.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vallice:
I also confirm the good quality of this vibrating motor and this is the easiest component to replace on this phone, excluding the battery.

For just 5 euros with shipping included, the vibration on my Nexus One feels like new :victory:

I'm running Wireless Tether Root app on Bluetooth mode, but the PAN service doesn't show up on the other computer trying to tether.

Bluetooth tether uses far less power than wifi so it's worth it. Even Motorolla Droid can do it, why not Galaxy S?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] dunginhawk:
Good morning ladies and gents.

My transformer is on a truck for delivery and I wanted to start forumulating my app list.

I LOVE mame emulators. I built a full size arcade cabinet with working coin mech etc. That was windows of course.

All of the games I downloaded worked perfectly.

Now ive tried some android mame stuff in the past and none of the games work. So very very vew of them.

Is there any GOOD mame emulator out there that works with a ton of games? The ones I see are very restrictive.

Hoping to get a good discussion going here as to what people are using, and how many games it supports.

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rcm_rx7:
Mine is on the truck for delivery today too, I can't wait! I too am interested in a decent Mame emulator, I'll try some options out tonight when the tab arrives. My real reason for responding is that I want to see you Mame Cab! Post pics please!

Also, what are your control plans with the tab? On screen or Wii remote?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dunginhawk:
ill try to dig up pics of the cab.

its been a while. ended up selling it when i moved.but kept the tank stick and the xp machine. so i can build another cheap.

i ordered a bluetooth nintendo classic controller from a link someone posted here last weekend. 40 bucks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rcm_rx7:
Yeah I saw that one, nyko right? I like that it doesn't need a wiimote, I'll probably order that soon.

So there's a few options out there for android, but it looks like there are issues.

TigerArcade

Looks like there are some scaling issues, and it doesn't play everything.

Jrioni Arcade

Doesn't look like it does any better, and not sure about honeycomb support.

Any other options? I'm suprised that's all there is.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dunginhawk:
yeah. there are some out there, but nothing that supports the wide array of games i have.

i have about 4000 games on my PC that runs mame, including the original killer instinct upright etc. but none of the android emulators run it worth a damm
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Atlas51:
we should make mame emulator on android
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
Tiger Arcade was my favorite emulator to use on my Nexus One, but it desperately needs an update for tablets. If you try to run it, it opens in a tiny window on the screen, and navigating through the menus is incredibly difficult. I didn't even bother testing any games because I just got too frustrated with it.

If and when they eventually do update it, I can confirm that it does play most CPS2 and NeoGeo games. I'd really like to see CPS3 support in the future.

[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:
You must use a FAT32 formatted drive.

To browse, use a file manager. I personally like Dual File Manager.

[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:
If you use Dual File Manager it will see /mnt/sdcard as your default directory. Hit the Android Back Button once and down at the bottom you should see "usb_storage"

So I flashed BAMF 1.6 on release day. I did wiped data/cache/delvik 2x before I flashed. I installed all of my apps from the market and did not use titanium backup for settings or anything.

Anyways, the issue I am having is when I activated the Smartass Governor it seemed that my battery became...screwy? I plugged my phone in saturday night very late and woke up with my battery at 78%. I didn't think this was too weird as I was only asleep for about 3-4 hours and I have the extended battery. I was playing words with friends through the day and got the battery warning at about 6:00pm sunday so I plugged it into my computer. After about an hour my phone beeped and told me to switch to AC power as the current config didn't supply enough power. So I switched to AC @ 8:00 and it was on the charger until 5:30 this morning. This time with only 34% battery. I turned off smartass and left it on the charger while I was showering and the battery was at 70 something within an hour. Anybody else notice this?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashleyayling:
I'm not too sure why sending an SMS would cause your phone to loose signal completely, are you using the stock messaging application or a third party one?

The only thing I can think to suggest is to check that the Service Center number is correct in Messages > Settings > Text Messages (SMS).

Hope this helps :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkDuffy:

It happens on the stock application. Also when I receive a message it drops out as well. All my named contacts turn to numbers for about 5 seconds and then when the signal kicks back in they turn to names again
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashleyayling:
That does indeed seem a very strange bug. Did you perform a Full Wipe before installing Android Revolution HD 5.1.2?

Also, have you flashed the HTC Sense 3.0 SMS application?

Froyo's biggest advantage is flash, so if you do a lot of web surfing, this is a big plus and bragging rights to friends that have an iPad. It's also has better performance and better memory/app management. Also is which apps work with which version, so many apps say 2.1 and up, but some say 2.2 and up so you may be limited in future apps by staying with an older version.

So I've been experiencing some weird "black screen" bug on my Nexus One lately, ever since the Gingerbread 2.3.3 update. It's similar to the below video where the phone will show a black screen momentarily when loading apps, even when going into the settings page when it happens. The bug happens in a random manner.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ActPu-wwltA

I was wondering if the above is the same as the notorious incoming call bug? However I've never had a problem with incoming calls, only when loading apps.

Shall I take the trouble to do a hard reset of my phone? :confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedr4m:
I'm having the same problem and I think there are others too :) I did a hard reset and even a passimg to to see if any of gingerbread bugs disappear but it just didn't help!

some are saying that not clearing the cache might cause some malfunctions but I did a passimg and let the phone update itself but there was NO difference!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hycian:
Thanks mate, guess I shall just wait for the 2.3.4 and see if it helps. You know, there's always a risk of data loss with hard reset, as you can't guarantee a full backup of your data.

[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
You're using it wrong. It's meant to be plugged into a dock for what you want. The kickstand is for battery use.

If the charging port were elsewhere, people would complain that it was in the wrong place because it's not easy to dock, or the buttons are on the wrong side, or you can't open the stand for more volume when docked, or some other reason.
[Thunderbolt General] IISiDeK1CKII:
This question has been asked and answered 100 times. HTC wants you to purchase the multimedia dock. Simple as that.
[Thunderbolt General] what25:
Yep. Gotta make us fork out an extra $60 for the dock. Pathetic.

On the other hand, portrait mode works well.
[Thunderbolt General] Thrillhouse847:
If the charging port were elsewhere one would not need the dock in the first place.
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
You're wrong.
[Thunderbolt General] distortedloop:
Why is he wrong?
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
Great argument. Will read again.
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
I'll assume you really don't know.

First, there are different types of docks. For most people, a car dock is necessary to secure the phone in a position which is easily seen and accessed. The phone is expected to provide hours of operation while running power intensive applications (navigation and phone, primarily). This is only reasonable with a dock. You could argue that one could simply plug in a cable and use a simple holder, but the counter argument then becomes "you don't need a kickstand, either, and you can lay it flat."

A dock is also needed to provide HDMI output as intended. This dock has been announced, but is not yet available, but that's clearly what the phone is designed for.

His statement that "if the charging port were elsewhere one would not need the dock in the first place" is only true in exactly the same sense that one doesn't need a dock even with the charging port exactly where it is now.
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
I used exactly the same "argument" the OP did - stating something as fact with nothing to back it up.
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
Fact: you knew this upon buying the phone, don't ***** about it after the fact.
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
TRY to follow the thread without being so parochial. This is the "OP" referenced.
[Thunderbolt General] andydumi:
Sort of back on topic:

I want a dock now, not in a few months. And not the one with room for an extra battery that has been floating around. I want a small dock.
