[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] b615:
After I install and activated WP7 on my HD2, my hotmail email account was spoofed and sent spam about cheap viagra to all my active contacts. (Embarrasing) I take good care of where I access the internet and the only way my e-mail account could have been compromised is through the software I used here. Does anybody have or had the same problem?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] JonnieLasVegas:
Can't say I've had that problem on WP7, but I did have that problem with WM6.5.x on a custom rom. It was the only time I had that problem...and the only time I used that rom, lol.

coincidance, your details are sold all the time to dodgy 3rd partys, its only a matter of time.

another ploy by them is to bomb every potential email address, if you even view the email it can download pictures, harmless in its self but the very fact the picture was viewed allows them to see which email addresses are active, once they have you theres no going back

im using the villia rom right now which makes me unable to upgrade the firmware via the kies. can i upgrade it with the help of odin? if i can, where to download it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skibadee:
Yes you can get new firmwares from samfirmware.com. I guessing already have Odin if u are using villain rom?

Have you/anyone lost the boot up sound with this rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmd512:
Why didn't you ask this question in the Villian ROM thread? I keep seeing these very personalized one liner threads that just clutter up the forums when they could be easily asked in an existing thread...

You will not be able to update via Kies in the future but need the Odin /custom route .

When you've installed VR, you won't get KIES updates.

Given the unreliability of KIES, I would never use it to update personally...

You can install future VR updates via ODIN, just like normal. Perhaps I'll even make a way to update OTA? All depends on if I ever actually get this blasted SGS2...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
jp9 make my data slow and my phone get really hot, also kills my battery. some say the opposite.

data speeds vary by area. i get 4mbps on my captivate and 6mbps on my infuse. locally verizon is lucky to get 2g speeds even on 3g, it took 3 or 4 minutes to reinstall maps on my friends fascinate. in manhatten lte on verizon can get 20mbps. if verizon is better in your area and you can deal with there politics then get verizon. there plans are basically mirrored from att's plans now and you can go non contract with them as well if you want to pay full or near it for the phone. as verizon tries to atract att's costomers there rates, plans and obligations are getting better and better for new subscribers. old costomers they can't care less about and are subject to insane overage charges and dumb policies. they also offer unlimited data as there only data plan now so it is like the old iphone billing.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
use kc1 modem it is the best overall i have used, no issues, great call quality. also kp1 was good, gps positiong is wonky on some roms but the call quality is good.

i hear jkv is also awesome but it is not included in the rom because it defaults to 900mhz not 850. i think after an 850 mhz mode is on there you can just flash jkv but im not speaking from experience that it works. you dont want the hot phone issue or a lack of service if you can avoid it so maybe try kc1 first.

I'm comming from the Samsung vibrant so im fairly new to nexus community. However I did find a couple tut. that were very good, I followed everything exactly as the person in the video. By the way the tutorial i used was from the Unlockr. But anyways i followed everything i set up adb my device appeared in the command prompt. However the next step once your phone is recognized when setting up adb is to power off and get into "fastboot". I did that, plugged the usb in and opened another command prompt. When i type in "fastboot oem unlock" it just hangs on the "waiting for device" part forever. Can someone please help me out thankx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
You should really use a more descriptive title. I had no idea what this was about until the last sentence.

If you closed your terminal, than adb probably closed as well. Open up the cmd window while the phone is in fastboot and type

That should start adb back up and let you know if the phone is detected in one command. It should then be ready for

[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
I've went through a bunch of Android phones and no matter the horse power inside every phone the Nexus One is still my favorite. Yeah it's weaker than the Nexus S and the G2x, but the design of it I think is perfect. wish I could rip the guts out of a G2x and throw them into a Nexus One lol...just a random thought ...what do you guys think about the Nexus One?
[Nexus One General] 299792458:
Agree with you...I just gave up on the g2x after going through two of them. Back on my n1. I'm not as down as I thought I'd be. Except for the problems I *really* liked the g2x, but my n1 still just really seems likes premium device.

I think I will wait it out for the nexus that gets paired with ICS. Do we know who the manufacturer will be this time (I've been hearing LG?).
[Nexus One General] mullerrad:
Im still using my NexusOne brilliant phoneq
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
Hope it's LG...htc is locking bootloaders, samsungs uses too much plastic and LG I think did a pretty decent job with the G2x except for the lcd bleeding...and it's other random issues.
[Nexus One General] bravogee:
I agree. I too tried to move on to newer & better hardware'd devices. But N1, aka passion is still my favorite.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Pretty much agree. Still can't find a good replacement as the nexus is such a great device.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Have tried out most new devices in the stores, but they just don't "feel" as good as my Nexus!
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
Exactly. The Nexus feels so great in the hand and it's such a perfect size for a phone IMO.
[Nexus One General] DumbUglyDragon:
I've been on my Nexus S for months now, but when ever I pick up my Nexus One, it just feels right in my hand.... and oh how I miss those docks!
[Nexus One General] GnatGoSplat:
Still feels new to me, but then I've only been using my N1 for 3-weeks or so. I only buy these things when they go under $200 on the used market.

It's significantly nicer than the MyTouch 3G I had before, and much nicer screen and hardware than my iPhone 3GS.
[Nexus One General] adunski:
Even thought it's been said a million times, I so agree. There's still nothing I see worth lusting for, outside of 4g speeds. Hell, half of the time I'm on 2g anyway, because my 3g microcell chews up my battery so badly. Great build quality, great feel, great screen, etc.. It looks like then newer phones are trending toward a bigger screen, but I'm still not sure I want that. I just feel they really got it right with the N1.
[Nexus One General] shopcity:
What do think about the 3gs battery life compared to n1? Was thinking which one i should get since i maybe going back to an htc brand
[Nexus One General] GnatGoSplat:
3GS battery life is much better. I could go 2 full days without charging, and even when I would charge it after 2-days, it wasn't completely dead. I take my N1 off the charger around 7AM. I get home at 5PM and it's already down to 20%. It's usually close to shutting itself off by 11PM. It's not a huge deal because charging it every night is no problem, but the battery life is definitely not as good as the iPhone.

I've installed Droidwall to shut off certain apps from polling for mobile data all the time, so I'll see if that helps any.
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
Yeah, I think the only phone that might compare in design looks to be the sensation

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
I just turn off sync, seems to give a good battery life boost and I get around 12hrs of moderate use and to me that's great, because I'm hardly ever away from a charger more than 12 hrs

[Nexus One General] mrrubix:
It's a real shame that the N1 wasn't marketed more heavily -- it's an amazing phone
[Nexus One General] GnatGoSplat:
I did install an app to turn off Auto-Sync anytime I'm not connected to Wifi. I'm not sure if it helped much.
[Nexus One General] XSafire:
I agree 100%. The Nexus One was the perfect phone a year ago, and the only things that the newer phones have that the N1 doesn't is 4G and front facing camera.

I will probably stick to only Nexus devices from now on. The Nexus S was a letdown for me because of all the plastic, and lack of SD slot and trackball. I do realize that the most if not all future android phones won't have trackballs :(

I'll probably stick with my N1 until the supposed LG Nexus comes out. I doubt N1 can run Ice Cream Sandwich smoothly, and the new Nexus is rumored to have a quad-core processor, it is probably time for an upgrade this winter.
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
Yeah, I think I'm going to stick with N1 until the N3, hopefully it looks nice and I would like to have at least an optical trackpad on it but I'm doubtful it will have one. Also I hope it's not made by Samsung again, the all plastic design is a killer... I really dislike it, I liked my Nexus S but it felt cheap. I hope it's made by HTC (with unlocked bootloader...which it should have since it's a Nexus) or by LG. No Moto or Sony(I think Xperia phones look disgusting with their same design and crappy plastic buttons)
[Nexus One General] GnatGoSplat:
Just thought I would update that using Droidwall made a remarkable difference in battery life. Where after 9-hours it would be at 20% before, now it's 70% at the exact same time. I guess one or more of my apps was trying to use the 3G connection all the time and sucking down the battery. I shut off 3G access to everything except the web browser, because that's all I use 3G for anyway. After 16-1/2 hours, battery is only down to 50% and even did a lot of web browsing on 3G during the day and Wifi this evening.
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
14hrs and 40minutes with 51% battery, been using it all day for texting and updating facebook, twitter and some xda...that's impressive.

I love my sexxxi Nexi but it's beginning to show it's age. Was waiting for the Sensation but it being all locked down & such guess I'll wait for the LG Nexus 3 just hope it's not plagued with the same issues as the G2X. Every person with a fruit phone that I show my phone drools over the power of a rooted Android device. (In my all excited voice) I can't wait for the Nexus 3!
[Nexus One General] xxlikquidxx:
how are you guys dealing with phone freezes and you need to boot it up from a cold boot when the power button is dead? Do you carry the charger around and use the battery pull trick?

I love the phone to dead but a few days ago, it froze after i unlock and was unresponsive for 10 minutes. I pull the battery to reboot it but was unable to turn it on due to the power button issue just like 99% of people using the N1. I was stuck with a brick phone for 5 hours.. my day was sh!tty after that.

Has anyone develop a mod that can use the volume button just like the power button on cold start to turn it on?
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
I haven't experienced that problem yet. Take it apart and adjust the power button.

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One General] Rod3:
I think you are a little off base with that 99% comment. I have had my phone for well over a year and never had any of the power button issues. Then again, I use the quickboot widgets and CM7 (trackball wake, notification power sleep widget) and hardly ever use the power button. There have been some very vocal people complaining about their power buttons, but it would appear that the vast majority of posters on this forum are unaffected.
[Nexus One General] Lord_Buckington:
I've had my N1 since pretty much day one and I use the power button as you'd expect through normal usage and have had no problems. Apart from the odd touch screen glitch the hardware is holding up well.

I've been on the verge of replacing my N1 for 1 or 2 months largely because I like having the latest and greatest, but I've never quite made the jump. I think I'll be waiting for the next Nexus before upgrading

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One General] GnatGoSplat:
My N1s are both many months old and both have perfectly functioning power buttons. Can't say I've ever had an N1 freeze up before either, but I run stock ROMs.

I don't think the power button switch can be adjusted though. I've read the cause is the flex cable. It can't be replaced by itself, so you have to buy the entire upper PCB which is around $60. I feel like someone with good soldering skills could probably figure out how to solder tiny wires to reconnect the power switch to the upper PCB.

[Nexus One General] bentez2003:
Sold my N1 today after receiving my SGS2 3 weeks ago. I ran Enomther & CM on my N1. both great and added alot of mileage.

I would say the phones best features were the XDA community, the trackball, and the noise cancellation.

The worst would be the Screen - both multitouch and outside visibility and frustratingly small storage space.

Still a great phone but I'm happy to have moved on to my SGS2, it seriously is top quality stuff. People hating on plastic need to find something else to complain about because if you drop either a HTC or a sammy onto hard pavement the end result is the same!

Not trying to take anything away from the N1 though for an 18 month old phone it still showing its class.
[Nexus One General] Lord_Buckington:
I was incredibly close to picking up an SGS2. I agree with you about plastic/metal stuff and I do think that people are overly critical of Samsung. I just decided that I would wait and see what happens with a Nexus 3 before upgrading.

I was so close to buying the galaxy s2, but I didn't. Now with latest cyan nightly I kinda got second wind with my nexus so I'm gonna stick it out for now.
[Nexus One General] Serious_Beans:
I'm thinking about upgrading to the Nexus S again, only because some games are lagging on me and the I kind of miss my Nexus S, nothing GREAT about it, but it IS the next Nexus, but I haven't decided yet.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Yeah its such a tough one. When cyan fixes new things that Jeeps me going to stay with my n1. But then I want to upgrade to get extra install space for apps, and dual core to play latest high end games.
[Nexus One General] wintermute000:
You and me too brother

I tried Overcome on my galaxy tab and that ran like the wind, so it gave me the confidence to finally screw around with my phone (previously I wasn't game, reasoning that if I stuff my phone my life will be seriously inconvenienced, whereas a tablet = just a toy).

Now I can watch the first round of the dual core android slugfest in comfort, and wait for either the second round (Nexus three pls?) or just pick up an SGS2 much cheaper and with a full array of battle tested custom roms waiting.

Space is a moot point since CM7 lets you move anything to apps2sd and I find its enough for me. (although on my galaxy tab with 2gb space it is quite a nice luxury going crazy and installing every app under the sun, and not worrying about apps2sd, storage locations or anything).
[Nexus One General] krabman:
I did pick up the sgs2, no blathering about that though. While it is more potent in every way for some reason it does not earn the soft spot in my heart the nexi did. Bout the only thing that ever really bothered me about the n1 was the crazy touch and having to turn the screen off and back on. If it hadn't a been for that one finally getting to me I don't believe I would have moved on just yet. I miss that damn trackball....
[Nexus One General] lchiu7:
The power button on my N1 is on its last legs and requires considerable pressure to register. So I don't break it completely I have installed AnykeyUnlock which allows me to unlock the phone with the volume key (you used to be able to use the trackball until that was broken with 2.3.4).

I have had this phone since launch day and have had it replaced twice under warranty, but mainly because of the camera.

While the AnykeyUnlock works fine, I have had to forgo the PIN lock on the phone which in itself, would not have been an issue except without the PIN lock I can now longer connect to our Exchange Server (because of the policies on the server that enforce a local lock to be in place).

So I am now eschewing the ability to read email from work (which is probably not a bad thing!) but losing the calendar sync was a biggie until I installed GoogleCalenderSync, sync the Exchange calendar with a Google calendar and the N1 syncs with that.

As for a new phone, I bought the NS about a week after launch but then got buyer's remorse and sold it as it didn't seem like a big enough improvement for me.

If I can keep this N1 going until the N3 then I will be happy since it means the N1 will have served me for 2 years which is a lifetime probably in smart phone history.

HTC has quoted me $55 to repair my N1 but I can't bear the thought of being without a smart phone for any time now :-(
[Nexus One General] momomok:
I love N1

The led color is a killer feature.

I don't understand why HTC has decided to use that crappy touchscreen controller chip...

It ruins N1...
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
I think that 55 dollars might be worth it.
[Nexus One General] lchiu7:
Probably. I also have a problem with the SIM card reader in that I need to stuff some paper on top of the card for it to recognised. That is really annoying since it was a refurbished phone replacing a faulty one and was like that when I got it.
[Nexus One General] bobbyphoenix:
Love mine too. Have a Defy and a Desire HD too, but keep going back to N1. The only thing that annoys me is the very limited on phone storage. Even with putting all app I have on SD card there is still very little space left.

[Nexus One General] zipredictive:
I ♥ my Pure Google Nexus One

After almost 1 year (I bought mine on june 1)it is an amazing phone.

I ♥ when my trackball flashes green for messages or red for gmail or yellow for missed called.

I ♥ its body it's so resistant

I ♥ its display (when its not too sunny)

With cyanogen 7 ... damn it's so fast.

I ♥ it because after 1 year I can play tegra games such as FRUIT NINJA THD SAMURAI II: VENGEANCE HARDWOOD SPADES PINBALL HD etc

I ♥ because its a pure google phone even if I have Cyanogen.

Yea I felt in love with my phone

Going to try it out...left the Nexus One though :/ upgraded to a Nexus S, the visibility in sunlight was killing me. SAMOLED fixes that. I miss my N1, but the NS is doing great...it's not THAT bad of a phone, just hoping the N3 is a better improvement and no plastic!
