I noticed this as well. It is a bother... needs more range. To me, it should get whisper quiet before the sound disappears altogether.

I wanted a white one, but the cyan is sexy too. :) I also didn't want to wait, as I wanted to get the $100 connectivity issue credit (though I'm having no problem with LTE in STL.

I've just gotten the phone yesterday, so I'm still figuring things out. It's my first WP. LOVING the build and quality of the phone. Signal has been excellent. Connecting to my work wifi is amazingly fast and just WORKS, when it was a PITA with my android.

Some of my cons so far:

-The speaker volume that you mentioned.

-I want the status icons to stay and not disappear. I don't want to swipe to see them.

-Not being able to set custom alerts for text messages for my contacts. I want a different alert if my kids are texting me vs. a friend.

-This is probably me just being dumb, but how to you go back/forward in the browser?
[Nokia Lumia 900] bmc24:
Somehow I missed the memo until yesterday that the white one is a gloss finish!! This makes m less excited for it and I was just wondering what you thought of its look?

More so than the look difference its the scratch and fingerprint difference that gives me pause

This is my first WP. Overall it's nice, but resolution is a serious let down. I like to browse the web on my phone and the text is just hideous.

So you'll be sending yours back and getting the Galaxy Nexus or the Razr Maxx??:)

You know, I didn't pay that much attention to that detail. I usually don't care about the glass finish. NO matter what finish you have, there's something that doesn't work out. So, if I got the white, the glass or matte would not be an impact on my decision. Though, a matte white...might not be that attractive...hmmm...didn't think of that...
[Nokia Lumia 900] jettrue:
Have you turned on "desktop version" vs. "mobile version" in IE preferences? It looks much better in the full version. Though of course it takes things longer to load.
[Nokia Lumia 900] bmc24:
My worry is that the gloss finish will be much easier to damage than the matter. I also Ike the understated look of the matte. I'm not eligible for upgrade til may so u will get some hands on before purchase but right now I'm leaning toward a black one with a case.

Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
[Nokia Lumia 900] jettrue:
I'm thinking of getting this case. That way I'll have some white (which will contrast nicely with the blue), but if the white gloss sucks or gets scratched, it's just a case.

http://www.case-mate.com/Nokia-Lumia-900-Cases/Case-Mate-Nokia-Lumia-900-Barely-There-Cases.asp
[Nokia Lumia 900] Insert_here:
Easier to damage cause it's glossy so a bit less grippy? Also wouldn't the white finish hide fingerprints better than black matte?

Also having the phone in white tricks the eye into believing it's bigger than say black. So a white 900 will be even bigger than it already is lol
[Nokia Lumia 900] jettrue:
Oh goodness, now this is something that really bothers me. One volume, WP7, really? You mean if I'm listening to media, but I want my ringtone/alert volume low, this is impossible? No separate media volume? Not to mention not being able to have a different volume for phone calls and texts. :confused::mad: I'm sitting here at work trying to listen to music over headphones, and have to annoy my coworkers with my text and email notifications? Am I missing something?
[Nokia Lumia 900] epidemike:
I tootally agree with you. This may be one of the areas that WP7 's simplification leads to frustration.

BTW for all of those talking about the white phone, on the Verge mobile netcast, Vlad mentioned that the HTC One X was a matte finish and noticed that his jeans' dye rubbed onto the phone. I think the gloss is probably to prevent color absorption.
[Nokia Lumia 900] bmc24:
Well the gloss has been described as a more enamel feel to it. Anytime I have had a shiny device like that it is prone to get scratched really easy. They are both carbonate bodies but the gloss finish makes me think the way the device would react to sharp objects more harshly.

I will admit I don't know exactly how to describe what I am trying to say here haha. But nonetheless it's something I hope to be wrong about but we shall see. Also the gloss finish will reflect more light thereby making fingerprints far more obvious. My favorite part about the matte finish compared to gloss ones is its low reflectability. Hopefully I'll get my hands on it and find this is all much to do about nothing but I was just hoping someone had more insight into this matter.

While that sounds like it could be true it still doesn't kill my worries haha. If that's true that seems like a major oversight on the design team's part.

If you have headphones on it should be playing only through the headphones. At least that's what my focus does. Also you could just put it on vibrate and it will not sound off. Hope this helps!

Before AOKP, there was a folder on the internal sd card that displayed the external sd card. I guess that was some kind of special link.

Will start two catagories and update the list with every reply, I will test myself first, then update OP. If you find something that breaks an app that isn't directly related (removing _____.apk breaks this app that I didn't want it to) PLEASE post and let us know so we can update/include those details.

Copied from the GB list, most of these seem to stick around, will update with the file locations and .apk names to keep things consistent. UPDATE: Removing from this list and moving down to the list with .APKs as I find them, the remainging ones I may have already deleted or I cant find, if you know where these are, please let me know.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] edgex:
I think everyone uses Titanium Backup to freeze things, Personally I tend to remove via Root Explorer once I confirm it doesn't break anything, though I always keep a CWM backup anyways. Cant say for Juice Defender, I use Easy Battery Saver, but it sounds to me like you can do exactly that, it just prevents the apps from running so if Juice Defender does something with those apps, they wont be running anyways.

mv /system/etc/vpl /system/etc/vpl.bak

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eawooten:
I have been running the kanged builds of CM9 for a while, but it began to get bogged down recently and would freeze up almost daily forcing a hard shutdown and reboot.

Sometime yesterday, it began to boot only into recovery no matter what option I tried in the Cyanoboot menu. From there I tried a factory reset and wipe dalvik to hopefully get back into CM9 and here's where the strangeness really kicked off.

Clockwork (which was running off emmc) would freeze in the middle of the factory reset just like it would when CM9 was running (the graphics would degrade slightly upon inspection of the screen).

So, I grabbed my old sdcard with clockwork recovery on it to boot from sd, and I run into the same problem again. Freezing before a wipe, factory reset, or install from sd can complete.

Now, after each failed attempt in clockwork (sd and emmc) it sticks at a backlit black screen and after a hard shutdown refuses to boot (sd or emmc) for about an hour, only to repeat the madness again.

Does anyone have any ideas what I can try from here or familiar with a similar situation?

My sd clockwork version is 3.2.something and I've also tried 3.0.1.something.

UPDATE: For reasons unknown, my Nook seems to be booting regularly as of this morning. However, I am still unable to get a successful flash out of any rom. The closest I've gotten to success is stuck in a boot loop. I think from here I'll likely be able to figure it out, but just as before...

Any help is welcome and appreciated!
