Yeah, soon we will find that the entire phone contains water detection markers :)

It must be the #1 cause for ppl to claim warranty replacements. For a few times I have to use warranty service, the first question they ask is what color is the sticker inside the phone.

BTW, if you use you phone in humid places a lot, like bath room while showing, good luck with your warranty :)
[Captivate General] Griffspen:
If you have been paying monthly for insurance, then you will be able to pay $50-$80 to get a replacement. Otherwise, no they won't replace it.

Hmmm. So far nothing is pink/red, I'll have to open my phone. Haven't attempted to peroxide/bleach them. The phone, for the most part, works. The leftover residue is causing some issues, though.
[Captivate General] id10terror:
You shouldn't be using the phone yet if there is still water inside. Every moment it's on increases the risk of a short or other damage. Stick the phone in a bowl of rice for a day or two. Make sure you keep the back plate off, and take the battery, SIM and SD cards out, and place them in a separate smaller bowl of rice. The rice absorbs the remaining moisture from the phone.

I've saved countless friend's phones this way.

For the past 24 hours I took the whole thing apart (screws and all) and let them dry. Not with rice, but they're dried up nonetheless. It's not so much the water that concerns me as it is the leftover particles in any residue that's left behind.

You don't need those files any more, cause your phones already rooted.

If you want to keep any files, you can use a card reader or just through your phone copy all the files to your computer than copy them back to the new sd card.

Swapping Sd

Ok so I have trasfered alot of apps to my sd card. Im assuming if I change sd card that those apps wont work anymore or be on my phone?

Im thinkin I can just send back to phone then pop in new card and transfer them again. Just transfer whatever other stuff I need from my card to the new one lile ROMS PICTURES im sure that all the apps will create its own folders and directories again, so I guess my only concern is the apps being on the card?

Just use a card reader to copy all the files from the SD card to your desktop computer. Then copy them to the new SD card. Your apps will work fine.

Hello Guys and (Girls)

I've got a lil problem which is really pissing me. I can't listen to music normal. Allways the songs are skipping or restart whatever. Sometimes it also just phones someone, while im listning to music

I tryed 3 diffrent Headphones of Phillips, Zenheiser and Apple. They all didn't got a Mic or something to skip songs.

But they are showed as a Headset on my phone. Sometimes they dosn't show up as that, than it works perfectly.

Is there a way to disable the headset functionality or whatever.

WHAT CAN I DO??? :(

Best Regards

Are you rooted? If so which ROM have you got?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] safarious:
I got a rooted phone.

I'm using Android Revolution 5.1.10.

And its in every music-player also in the stock one.

Normaly i use the player called "MusicMod"

It occurs while i walk/run/jump or get on the cable with my fingers near the headphone port. Sometimes also with no reason.

[Off-topic] Harvin Dhillon:
Well I came from an N900 and I must same Maemo/Meego is a complete OS. It just lacks apps.

That said, Nokia has killed Meego so I wonder how much support will they give this. Hence the reason why I jumped to Android.
[Off-topic] rd_nest:
The hardware design looks very impressive (imo). I like the look and "feel" of the phone. Even through the battery is just 1450mAh, we know Nokia handsets are good in actual battery performance. N8 has 1200mAh, if I recall correctly.

I am worried about the CPU/GPU. CPU seems to be rather dated Cortex A8. I am not sure how much heavy-duty apps can it sustain. But I guess for most folks that won't matter if the operation is fluid. Ironically I believe this is the 1st 1GHz phone from Nokia. GPU is my main concern. It's SGX530, which I guess is less powerful than iphone 3gs.
[Off-topic] amitmiz:
Both iPhone 4 and 3gs got the SGX530 as the GPU.. so it is not that slow..

and after all the specs are not all, because the iphone with the "old" 1GHZ and SGX530, can run games that android need tegra 2 to run smooth..

I think it's good that Nokia FINALLY released a phone with up-to-date specs...but they release it with a dying OS!!

IMO, I find MeeGo a bit too simple. App drawer...social feed...multi tasking.

I'd just find that a bit boring, but that's probably just me. Of course on Android, we technically only have home screen and app drawer (and lock screen) but ON the home screen you can do so much. Apps, widgets, the layouts of them. The scrolling wallpapers etc.

But one thing I do like is the multi-tasking. That page is pretty damn good.

Although the frame rates look pretty slow (however that could just be the pre-release build)

Phone History:

N97 > SGS > SGS 2

I dont think that any attemps of nokia to get back the worlds best mobile manufacture will result in success. The N97 was quiet a good mobile, but after changing to my first android device (sgs) i have got just 2 words for nokia: never ever.
[Off-topic] AXIS of Reality:
Great looking hardware, but if you watch one of the videos on youtube that shows a hands-on with it the interface is quite stuttery and slow. =(

I've also gotten used to using widgets instead of constantly jumping in and out of apps, so I don't think Meego is for me.

My own preference list (does not count app selection; interface only):

1) Android - I love customisation and widgets

2) WebOS - Love the 'cards' style and visual appeal

3) Windows Phone 7 - Minimalism done right, very smooth and attractive

4) iOS - Attractive and smooth, but starting to age a bit

5) Meego - Very simple and quick, but heavily app-reliant for everything

6) Windows Mobile 6.5 - Obviously not great, but customisable

7) Symbian - Tried a Nokia smartphone, but isn't intuitive and not fluid or 'pleasant'
[Off-topic] Bratag:
Right there with you. I loved my N900 (still do really) but Nokia have systematically managed screw things up. Maemo has had features that android is still TRYING to achieve for a long time now. Getting used to a back button was a real challenge after coming from the intuitive GUI that was on the N900.

That being said the N9 looks amazing (if a little light in the camera spec department). The problem here will not be the hardware, nor the OS. It will be Nokia management and its seemingly constant quest to destroy what once was an innovative and great company
[Off-topic] Harvin Dhillon:
A mistake many make. Sure it is linux based but it is not a linux distribution. It is just a virtual machine running on a linux kernel.

Meego is an official Linux distribution ;)

Had the same issue coming from Maemo, didnt understand the back button cause it didnt make sense. Half the time I didnt know if the application was running or if it was closed. No such issues with Maemo, it was a desktop OS in your hands and perfect for the touch screen.

Nokia just made a epic blunder, if they kept pushing meego and put it on all their phones instead of that dumb-ed down Windows OS7, they might have a good chance.

Apps is a issue on Meego yes but it is a linux distro based on rpm so all it needs is a customised UI and the app can be ported, that is where QT was suppose to come in. Well let's see how it goes. I dont think it will work though considering everyone is jumping ship from Nokia, me included.

[Off-topic] varunkumars:
I am with you. I came from NOKIA too. I was a big fan.

Now Meego VS Android (My Personal opinion)

No wallpaper on Meego. Screensaver is not a wallpaper for me.

Home screen Widgets and wallpaper. This is one of biggest reasons how Android was able to survive against iphone.

Sync with gmail- contacts, apps etc.

Nokia maps is no match to google maps.

N9 has a great screen but looks like a rectangular block. Awful.

Very limited availability of apps. Not sure if more developers would come forward to make apps for Meego.

Nokia's inferior choice of hardware which limits many developments.

I think Nokia's clear black display is same as SUPER AMOLED PLUS and samsung makes it for them(Not sure though).

I don't understand few things.

Why won't NOKIA tie up with ANDROID ? Android OS is free, correct ?? Why do they prefer Microsoft's OS for which they have to pay for the Licenses ??

I feel NOKIA products are very standardized but all their OS's suck. I would like to have a Android NOKIA.
[Off-topic] daivik:
I think it's due to political/company differences. Like Apple, Nokia what to be "different." And also, if they joined the Android club...they'd get crushed (due to their stupid thinking that they can put inferior hardware in flagship devices (except for the camera)) by Samsung and HTC.

I think that Microsoft made the deal very attractive for Nokia. I think that in the future, Microsoft could get boosted, globally. Nokia has like (40%) or 50%+ market share in many of the developing/emerging markets. DEPENDING on how long term this Nokia-Microsoft partnership goes on for, Microsoft could see their WindowsPhone Nokia devices get naturally pushed on to the emerging markets. Of course, that won't be any time soon, but as these markets develop people are going to want better phones and due to Nokia's long term dominance, there's a high chance Nokia's new WindowsPhones would sell equally as well. Of course this only depends on how long term the partnership lasts.

I know the above sounds a bit far fetched (and it is to an extent) but hey, it was just what I was thinking the other day when I came across this:

and at the end of the day, many poorer countries have since long, begun a path to rapid development.

Nokia has been doing badly lately but in France Nokia had 30% market share last year and i don't think they have dropped that fast, or?

This is Nokia strength as they own Navteq that they bought couple of years ago for 8 billion euros and are giving all the map features for free and it also works offline, something Google maps can't do.

As for the device i love the design of it. Nokia imo is easily the only one that can go against iphone design wise. I so hope Samsung or HTC stepped their game there.

UI for the videos i have seen looks very smooth, but the 3D maps was slow(though there was 8 applications running).

I'm a huge Maemo 5 fan and thinking this is more of a maemo phone, than MeeGo as it got harmattan inside makes me happy. No HDMI out is a big bummer. :(

If this comes out Q3 i just might, might get this one.

A very compelling argument that make me think twice about going back to Nokia

http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/22/editorial-dear-nokia-you-cannot-be-serious/

N9 Spec Sheet : http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n9-3398.php

N900 Spec Sheet: http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n900-2917.php

I9000 Spec Sheet: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9000_galaxy_s-3115.php

If you compare the CPU/GPU combo you can see a that the N900 and N9 use the same GPU and CPU but the CPU is clocked to 1Ghz.

The I9000 and N9 are closely related spec wise, but I9000 specs are dated.

I think the reason they didn't go with dual core is becuase Meego has been fully polished and tested on a single core. In which case I don't mind becuase according to this article it seems that they are using the latest Single core offereing by T.I.

But when you look at this wiki page, it is hard to imagine that this page was made by anyone else except Nokia itself. If you read the section about Software and if you read the Engadget Article it is hard to smell anything else but deciet.

Even then, I may still buy the N9 as I miss the plush Maemo interface on the N900 and the full fledged Linux experiance.

Peace.

[Off-topic] menonino:
Meego is for expert users that know what that are going to buy, i don't think it is comparable to android or ios, but n9 could be a really good phone for modders :)

Anyway it's nice to see that nokia hasn't leaved meego and has given to the community a new phone.
[Off-topic] IronSingh:
:confused: On What Basis? Have you tried Maemo?

Ofcourse it isn't Meego is a full fledged Linux distro, miles ahead of iOS or Android.

Depends if Nokia decides to close up the code like google.

The real issue will be if nokia will treat the N9 as the N900 and just produce then dump it for the community to do everything, which is not bad but I expect better.

The inclusion of Dalvik may be Meego's saving grace but I want to know what will Nokia do, will they fully back the N9 and release a steady supply of updates.

Peace.

[Off-topic] RostokMcSpoons:
I'm just coming up to the end of my contract. The Sammy Galaxy S2 is my current front runner, just narrowly ahead of the HTC Sensation (mostly because of the greater freedom to tweak provided by the unlocked bootloader)

But I am quite worried by battery life. I've currently got a Nokia 5800, and that does at least manage to live for a few days if I keep the Bluetooth switched off, and don't spend too long actively using the WiFi.

So when the N9 appeared, with a promise of 50 hours of mp3 playback, it made me think that finally here could be a smartphone that has some decent battery life, and still has some goodies (and a nice design) as well.

I've re-appraised what I want from my new smart phone. And that N9 ticks a lot of boxes:

1) Long battery life

2) Big bright screen

3) Nice design aesthetics

4) Decent camera (well, if it's based on the same tech as the lauded N8 it *should* be good)

5) High quality music playback

6) Good browser (sounds like the N9 browser isn't perfect yet, but there's still time)

The OS itself, well... it's quite the opposite to Android. Android can be super-customised. Whereas this N9, well it had better work out-of-box, because it won't see many updates. But it's designed to be super-simple, so it's for a different audience.

Personally I could go with either - my current Nokia 5800 doesn't have many apps on it - I've not tweaked it, I just use it. But I can imagine spending many hours fiddling with an Android phone trying out lots of features, apps and widgets.

Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) my buying decision has been set by yesterday's leaked info that the N9 release date is likely to be the end of September. I'm not going to wait that long to see how it turns out. I'll go with the Sammy in a week's time. But I may suffer a twinge of regret if I really spend all my time tethered to a power supply to keep my phone running :(
[Off-topic] IronSingh:
The 5800 has a 434 Mhz CPU and no dedicated GPU with a 1320 mAh battery.

The N9 has a 1000 Mhz CPU with a dedicated GPU with a 1450 mAh battery.

The SGSII has a 1200 Mhz Dual Core CPU with a dedicated GPU with a 1650 mAh battery.

Going on that alone, how do you think your battery will fair.

I had the 5800 it would last a day light/moderate usage.

I Galaxy i9000 can't pull that feat without requiring some juice.

As the N9 has a similar processor to the N900 I can confirm the N900 was better at holding Power but not by much. But seeing how the Processor on the N900 was only 600 Mhz, the battery on the N9 won't last very well either, probably worse.

SGSII will be mightiest Battery Hog in the list and will most likly be the last the least in terms of battery.

But if battery is your concern then you need to stay away from these phones.

Peace.

IronSingh
[Off-topic] RostokMcSpoons:
Well battery life *was* my concern, but I am reconciled to the fact I'm going to have to live with daily charges. The N9 does seem to have some hope for a longer battery life than most phones though - 50 hours of mp3 play is one hell of a long time!

But as I said, I'm not going to wait until end of September to see what the truth is - it's a Sammy for me. And I'll make sure I've got a spare charger at work, and a charger in the car ;/
[Off-topic] IronSingh:
Sadly, there have been battery breakthroughs but bringing it to smart phones has been slow. Most likely due to costs.
