While I understand you were wronged, I am confused in two places:

First, why $600? The phone was $179 + $18...did you order 3?

Second, how were you paying $5 for total internet? If you do the math, subtract the data plan ($5 or $15) it comes out to the $20 that most pay for total internet. If you are using the tzones hack, its hard to say that you are paying $15 more when its a loophole. For me, it is exactly the same amount I have been paying for a year now.

Good luck with the new provider- (btw, did you get tmo to unlock your excal for free already?) hope we still see you around here
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
wat do u mean.. im not sure wat its saying
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
is it jus lik the sidekick service. will be called the g1 service
[HTC Excalibur] kron2:
I ordered told me that I would be billed on my next cycle to and the debit thing never came up in my order.I don't think it is to bad paying 5.00 more for 3g and 400 text as I was paying 19.99 just for dater and I will not go over 1g don't plan on downloading with it
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
it has no video recorder will it nave an update for that?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I'm sure since it's open source someone will write an app to do this.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
some of the programs they are talking about so far are just crazy (I am sure a simple recorder should be nothing at all!)

One I read about will use GPS to determine where you are, and using that it will auto silence or change loudness to presets. For example, say you go into the courthouse often, you can have it auto mute.

Another spoke of using the camera to take a picture of your iris and use it as a protection device, like a retina scanner.

And yet another program takes a snapshot of a barcode on a product and does a search for the best pricing, both online and local (again, using GPS)

I cant wait :)
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
are u gettin it?

yup, I got in before the system seemed to go down the first time. I helped my friend all day long try to get one, finally securing him one as well
[HTC Excalibur] goraps:
Man, I am really jealous. I am dying to get my hands on a Dream up here in Canada. I wonder when an unlocked one will become available? With the open source OS it shouldn't take to long. If any of you t-Mobile guy don't end up liking it just give a shout.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
dude. welcome to my world. i dont know why there is $600 in charges. I paid for the phone this morning at $179 + upgrade and tax. I was then contacted by t-mobile. they said they were having a lot of issues with the amount of traffic to the site for the preorder. i was told the order i placed got cancelled and id have to go on the site and order again."You can't order it through us sir. You have to go back online and do it" .so i went on the site...saw my price was now $299 + tax + upgrade. i called them and argued with them for an hour. i said **** it and hung up..long story short, i logged into my bank account and I have charges that total $617.45..which the say was their error. and i can expect to see my cash back in my account in 5-7...but im not pre-ordered....your guess is as good as mine man...i got ****ed.

and i have data plan from a promo years ago..unlimited data and text is 20 for me. to get that with the new data...its $35 as far as i can tell. 35 - 20 = 15.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
ah, that sucks! The $600 charge is really odd. I cant believe they are unable to help with any of the wrong doings (although I am sure now it wouldn't do a bit of good) but why in the hell they charged you up front in the first place is whats most confusing to me. My friend just came off the "bad list" and is always late with his payments and his still said it would be billed next cycle:confused:

didn't realize you were grandfathered in, that makes sense now. I am happy to get a little faster service for the same as I have been paying.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Your correct a simple Video Recorder is well simple to be able to take 25 fps via the camera. "i think most mobs record @ 15fps?"

I won't be jumping on the Dream but when i get some reviews back from you guy's on what it can really do and get over my feelings about Google and mass domination lol, i'm sure i'll jump on it.
[HTC Excalibur] Kichigai:
Mass Multi-Reply

Well, I've got my N73 as an extremely reliable phone, and a Moto V557 as a backup, so I'm just looking for experimental purposes right now.

Well, when I mentioned OpenMoko, it was more of as an example. But I didn't realize that OpenMoko itself was that stripped down.

Well, I figured it was worth giving it a shot. I'll probably tinker with different ROMs once I have a little more time. What exactly are the differences between the two 6.1 ROMs?

It's the latest T-Mobile ROM. I've unlocked the thing, but when I used the thing, custom ROMs were relatively limited (though there was an unbranded ROM at the point, but Office was worth it to me and I didn't feel like experimenting with my primary phone).

You'll notice I didn't mention ActiveSync, though: Missing Sync. I'm running Mac OS X, and Missing Sync caused me so much trouble in the past, what with the creation of duplicates, constant sync conflicts, creation of address cards that are just jam packed with e-mail addresses and no additional information (just addresses, no names), it was just hell. And granted there's a competitor called SyncMate, but I could never get that damned thing to work. The whole thing is a hell I don't want to go back to (though when the phone worked right, it was a good experience... minus the browser). If I really wanted to, I could do a roundabout iCal/Address Book -> Entourage -> Exchange -> Dash, but that's still a big pain (Entourage's alarm manager is broken with 1,046 alarms I can't dismiss from alarms I dismissed in iCal, on my phone, and on my iPod).

I don't think so. I'm not THAT big into Android, I'm just looking to play around with stuff. And while I'm not on contract with AT&T (and I plan to avoid a contract from now on), I don't plan on buying a locked phone, and right now I'm not looking to make a big investment in a phone at the moment. I dropped $300 on my N73, and I'm considering buying an Eee PC, I need to repair my homemade DVR, and I don't have a job (I'm a college student, so I kind of have an excuse, and I am spending a lot of time with a club in my major, holding an executive position).
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
i dont know either...nor do they.

ive never missed or been late on a payment. most the time i have credit...so im not on some deadbeat list that i know of...asshole list, yea probably.
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
Well, give it a shot. Go to the main wiki page. A link to the Xanadux project is in the upper right corner. It shouldn't be much of a big deal, as most of the flasher utilities for HTC phones are Linux-based. There just hasn't been much interest from the Dash community to try and get it running. So if you're just interested in tinkering, you might be the first to get a full, Linux palmtop environment working on it. If you're really ambitious, you could find how the OpenMoko radio stack works, incorporate it into whatever ROM Xanadux is working with, and have a fully-functional Linux Dash.

t-mobile is debating to change the 1gb cap to something higher
[HTC Excalibur] RussianSolja:
CANT WAIT!!!

i bought my g1 (BLACK) 5min after watching the online live press confrence.... i also payed about $324 for it im just wondering in the market place... will we have to pay for apps? i know its a stupid question... also will there be a special section on this site for the G1?
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
no u wnt all of it should be free but if not thats why we have this site so either way we all good :)
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
I think, just like with our current apps, some will be freeware and some will be pay. anything to do with the Tmobile site no doubt will be pay.

Why did you pay so much! Were you not eligible for the upgrade?

There was talk about hitting up Flar for a section dedicated to the Dream, but I haven't seen it yet
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
why would there be a thread if the phone isnt even out my dude... but it will be here soon so jus hold out
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
Found an interesting video(for those like me that havent seen the OS in use) showing its multitasking capabilities on a G1
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
this just in there is no cap but u cnt abuse it lik u cnt over do it or they will make it 50 kb/s so there is no cap
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
good news! Now...lets get to tethering :)
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
i kno right how do u get the white one
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
The white one will not be available for pre-order. It will only be available after the release date.

As for tethering, T-Mobile says it's not going to be possible. Of course, there will always be workarounds, but I understand tmo's rationale here, as well as their reserving the right to cap for those who overdo the 3G bandwidth. It's a new network for them. They have no idea yet just how much it can handle or how much people will actually use it. They're making sure they can provide quality for everyone at once. It's the same thing they have now with the $5.99 hack. They know people are using it and are totally ok with it unless it chokes their network...in which case they close that loophole in areas where it happens. Hell, most cable internet providers do the same thing when you get right down to it, even though they say they don't, the same capping rights are in your terms of service when you sign up.

As for the marketplace, Google have said that the first batch of apps will be free; however, in the future, the model allows for developers to set their applications as for-pay or as free, depending on their preference.
[HTC Excalibur] RussianSolja:
i see nothing special about this phone to be honest with you its too small so is the screen big boys need big phones lol.

I Don't hate The G1

I just would not buy it, I will purchase this Phone http://sonyericsson.com/X1/ just think on my phone I got NFL Games, NBA Games, MLB Games, HBO, XM Satellite Radio, plus a lot more and all the video sites on the web with my mobile device on a Jimbotron size 800X480 Screen, now the G1 don't have this kind of multimedia entertainment, so why would I go backward, but some people will buy anything..........!
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
GO AWAY TROLL

I am so sick and tired of hearing about your love for the Sony, start a new thread for your POS and get the hell out of here if you dont like it! So far all you are doing is spreading MISinformation. When your rants become fact, I am quite sure you will find developers already working on a fix.

LMFAO!!!!! @ $179 for a pacman game LMFAO! thats priceless well ill have you know ill have fun paying $179 for my pacman phone lol. oh OOPS TO LATE ALL READY PAYED FOR IT! LMFAO!
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
Guys, I know you're relatively new to this board. Just ignore him like everyone else does. He won't have any ammunition if you don't encourage him.

By the way, T-Mobile revised their 3G data cap policy today because so many people on the net started an uproar over it. It's softball now in comparison with the first draught. So that's one less mark against the G1 (or any other 3G phone).

A Cripple G1

Why would anybody buy a cripple phone like the G1, would you buy a cripple car. Wait , wait, wait for a update, come on man......! My Xperia X1 will not come to the market cripple, if it did, I would not purchase it, but some peole will buy anything........!{LOL}:D
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
wth is crippled about a phone that is totally OPEN? Come on, use your brain dude.

If you want to make it better, get to writing us some software. Its open source, you dont even need to steal it and rebadge it

I may be "new" here, but I have been around long enough to see Tech's posts before...spamming the boards. I see no fault in calling a troll a troll. He may have some software that is useful, but the used car salesman tactics cheapen everything he touches.
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Yeah $179.00 for Street View And A Pacman Game

You cannot be in your right mind set to purchase a CRIPPLE G1 Pacman phone and the dude in the above post, I will never stoop down to his level, some people will buy anything, player hater...........!{LOL}

Android on HTC S620...???

Does anyone knows if is possible to install "Android OS" on Excalibur?
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
Check a little bit down. This was asked earlier this week, I think.

Short answer: no.

Long answer: it's possible, but you'd probably be the first to do it.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
I thought this would be interesting as well- until I started thinking about how crippled it would be on a 200mhz machine with no touchscreen.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
can i run vista on my 620 yet?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Course it can it's the Dista remix, mines got Dream Linux running so much fun with apget no more seraching high and low for software.
[HTC Excalibur] spikey911:
Not yet, and maybe never...

Some have been successful with other smart phones, but the Dash is a bit too slow to run the apps.

I think the glory of Android is its touchscreen features, and that functionality is lost on the Dash.
[HTC Excalibur] Ryanmo5:
Hey tech, its not just gonna have pacman game from what I've read. Sounds like the android is compatible for playing any games no matter what operating system they were made for. Unless i misread it sounds like they will open the android marketplace for users and developers to upload programs and games into the marketplace, making the download available to all. Of course with the market being open like that its not secure like the apple iphone market but every owner will just have to read the reviews of people who downloaded the program or game and make a judgement call on if they wanna download it or not. I just ordered my g1 so when i finally do get it and check it out I'll spread the word to you on what its all about.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Lol, I have XP on mine lol.
[HTC Excalibur] spikey911:
The market place will be nice. Its working very well for the Iphone.

I have decided not to get the new phone just yet...I am going to wait for the ball to start rolling and for some apps to hit the market.

I REALLY want to see the battery life...

So i just read the entire thread, wow you guys are having alot of problems ordering this phone!! I placed my order and it came to 213 after taxes. The total will be placed on my bill, didn't have to pay for it up front and its not due till december :D:D:D

The data plan isn't higher at all, its 35.00 a month for unlimited internet and messaging. Thats what im paying now with my dash.

G1 and the Android OS

Now... as a very vivid user of the dash and windows mobile 6.1 would it be worth it to turn my dash into just a PDA for my business and take up the G1 as my go to phone ? im curious as to how the file mangement is in the android os mostly. is it similar to WM?
[HTC Excalibur] RussianSolja:
this phone will blow the iphone out the box.
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
I wish people would stop focusing on the iphone. Android wasn't meant to directly compete with Apple. The CEO of Google is on the board of directors for Apple, for crissakes.

And the G1 itself will never beat the iphone. The whole point of this release is the first jump for an entirely new platform that will work on numerous examples of mobile phone hardware.

Comparing it to anything else is going to be apples and oranges, especially at this point.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Good point man.
[HTC Excalibur] spikey911:
Yeah, absolutely correct..

The Iphone is more than just a phone, its a whole experience and Apple wants to keep restraints on it to keep it in its own little sandbox.

Similar to what AOL was for the internet.

Android is not targeting Iphone, and they would be insane to even try given the popularity and customer base Apple already has.

The media is the only ones comparing it to the Iphone, and they are causing more damage than they realize because the keep calling it the Iphone killer, which its clearly not at this point.

And for those calling it a "Pac-Man" phone, I would be glad to own any phone capable of running Pac-Man....One of the greatest and most popular games of all times...A history maker...Just like Android very well may be...

Hi all,

have a motorola one zoom (parker), could test succesfully 3 GSI roms,

(Lineage, Havoc OS, and plain AOSP 10 222), in all of them, bluetooth audio

is not working, after pairing/connection with bt device, audio seems to move to

the device connected, but just after audio comes back playing on local cell phone,

as if bt is crashed.

I have found in this forum some threads saying to remove 2 specific file

from /vendor/overlay. None of those 2 files is there, and overlay just have

some subdirectories.

Changing codec seems not helping.

This is the only obstacle i have with GSI images, bt on stock image of course work,

would be great any help.

thanks !
