Has anyone else noticed their nexus one soft reset itself just kind of at a random time? I've been sitting here on my computer for a couple of hours with my phone on the desk and noticed the loading X screen just pop up out of the blue... eg, the phone soft-resetted itself.

I'm running a Very vanilla phone. Only 3rd party apps I have installed are Retro Clock, Battery Status Free, GDocs and Silent Time.

Anyone have the same problem or have any ideas? Is the phone getting updates and resetting itself to apply them?
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
nope never had that. try to factory restore you phone (settings>about phone>Restore).
[Nexus One General] coolbho3000:
This is a quick blurb that will make a lot of people happy. Remember the ramhack for the G1? Well, the Nexus One only has 218MB memory available to Linux, despite having a whopping 512MB total. Even the Motorola Droid, with 256MB total, has more RAM available to Linux! I asked about this, and romainguy explained on the Android IRC channel:

There we go. A "memhack" kernel update in the next Nexus One OTA should give us an additional 100-150MB RAM. Who wants to try to compile a kernel that does this now?
[Nexus One General] dwang:
Did u ask him when the next update is coming out. :)
[Nexus One General] niiiick:
is that an official IRC channel? with people that actually work on it or what?
[Nexus One General] coolbho3000:
Yes it is, and Romain Guy works for Google.
[Nexus One General] markimar:
I wondered what happened to all that memory! I still don't understand why 2 1 is taking so much.
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
Wonder if that will correct the slight and infrequent animation studdering people sometimes see when moving between home screens and scrolling.
[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
That is awesome, I was so happy to have 512 mb RAM it sucks to hear they dont use half of it, glad to hear they plan to fix that. So this thing is going to be even smoother? Also, we are talking about an official ota from google correct? I wonder why they released it with the limitation...
[Nexus One General] dwang:
This is a limitation of the 2.6.29 kernel.

The 2.6.32 kernel fixes this issue, but I guess they haven't worked out all the bugs yet.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
That explains why Cyanogen thought 2.6.32 flew compared to 2.6.29...
[Nexus One General] parrot5:
Is this like the PS3 where, at launch, they reserved more ram for its OS. Then they released more back to apps (games) with firmware updates :D Anyway, good news to everyone!
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Is this the correct chat room?

http://irc2go.com/pjirc/?net=freenode&room=android
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
So is there an eta of this official patch from google?
[Nexus One General] shwan_3:
well, what we do want the RAM for, yah for the OS than APPS but whats the deference between the OS and APPs ? well it is complicated as every APP will be running inside a VM made and managed by the OS

What I think : it doesn't matter, we want a good working OS that's fast and nice not free RAM ,that's just there not to be used for any good. If they at Google change it let them do that!
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
more RAM = less often apps have to be killed to make space for newly launched apps = less processing killing those apps and also more apps stored on memory for quick on-demand launch.
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
yes that is it.

Romain_Guy told me there is no ETA for the update but it is going to be included in the next update, whenever that may be. Hopefully not too long !
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
hope they fix a few other things aswell, i love the phone but there are a few aggravating software issues.
[Nexus One General] mgear356:
bump for awareness man..

so looking forward to the next patch
[Nexus One General] Namuna:
Another awareness bump.
[Nexus One General] jsoverson:
Really?

It's a pasted irc log, not breast cancer; people don't need to be aware of it.
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
agreed. How is anyone going to be affected by knowing this?
[Nexus One General] TFJ4:
lots of rumors saying OTA is coming soon...wonder if this is gonna be in it?
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
We can only hope...I'm more than ready to make this baby fly faster! :cool:
[Nexus One General] Freezey:
I'm. Already excited &I haven't even ordered my n1 yet.

It makes me warm inside knowing how quick this phone is on stock firmware&even thinking about when I first got my g1&how slow it was compared to how maxed out it is now. Picturing the n1 at its peak gives me chills =p
[Nexus One General] kaotikking:
I agree with u, mines going to be hear tomorrow and im already ready to burn some bacon!!!
[Nexus One General] Freezey:
When cyanogen is done with it, I think we might wana rephrase theterm "burning bacon" to "vapor roasting pigs"

Yet I hope eventually that the ramhacks don't do morebad than good. I hope google has a goal to make a rom or update that has absolutely 0 fc bugs. Stabalization is key wratherthan being speed greedy. Woudlnt do any good being blaxing fast& having fc's left&right
[Nexus One General] TFJ4:
it's not really a "hack" because it's just needs to be located to Linux, it's not being taken from another part of the phone..more of a patch/fix
[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
Would you be OK with the bump just being entitled "bump" or is it the actual bump that makes you upset?

I only ask because I'm a bit of a ram snob ever since I bought my mytouch under the impression it was equal to the magic in ram only to be devastated by the ugly truth.

I'm very interested in this and maybe if it stays on he first page people that might have some info but don't want to start a new thread could possibly see this thread and offer an informative post. That's my hope anyway...
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
I thought the HTC Magic was the T-Mobile MyTouch..
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
The US "myTouch 3G" was identical to the European "Magic" except for RAM. The US version had only 192 vs. 288 in EU. The Vodaphone version of the Magic also had 192 RAM, but didn't have a special marketing name like the myTouch. Also, the myTouch is now available in a "fender edition" with more RAM (256).

But they are all the same phone under the hood.
[Nexus One General] kitsunisan:
So its still technically inferior to the Roger's Magic?
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
Yes, it would appear the myTouch Fender is still 32MB shy of a Magic...
[Nexus One General] naturefreak85:
So would I be correct in assuming that this never actually came to fruition if I am not mistaken since I seem to only have the 196 available at this point in time.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Froyo was the fix.
[Nexus One General] naturefreak85:
So then I should have more than 196 MB available then I would think. If that kernal was supposed to resolve how much was available to the user, then between 2.1 and 2.2 I should have had an increase. I could be wrong though.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Just to check, you're not confusing RAM with internal storage are you?
[Nexus One General] naturefreak85:
Maybe I am, but what's the value in having more space to run the applications if you don't have the storage in the device to keep the apps on the device?
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Hence the native A2SD support...
[Nexus One General] naturefreak85:
Which it seems to be isn't even used. And also is slightly crippled. I wouldn't mind even widget support from A2SD which doesn't seem to work. Shame there isn't an easy way to implement better support for such.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Of course there is. Apps2SD+, using EXT3 partition on SD card.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
A simple ADB command makes enables it for all apps. Sure it's not good for widgets/live wallpaper, so you keep only that stuff on the internal memory.

Or, as above, good old fashioned style A2SD.
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
It's the RAM that gets increased and this is what increases performance. The internal storage for apps shouldn't have much effect on app performance.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Do not revive dead threads, they turn into zombies and eat the brains of all involved.
[Nexus One General] dogiedogie:
I too am interested in where this went. So it may be worth reviving
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
As it says, it didn't go anywhere, it was implemented in 2.2
[Nexus One General] x986123:
Nice job reviving one of the first ever threads. :/
[Nexus One General] dogiedogie:
How was it implimented when we all still have the same amount of free RAM as in some of the original posts :/
[Nexus One General] x986123:
We have 512mb or so available, but when using stock we have 200-250 free. It's not the same.

Sense has 100-150 free at any moment.

Please actually check... It's not the free ram that got boosted, but the amount of RAM available to the system and kernel.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Again, you're not confusing RAM with internal storage are you?

My phone has 160mb free currently, because it's already using the amount that was totally available in 2.1
[Nexus One General] martin0285:
this is awesome..... This ram your talking about we got waaaaaaa-aaaa-y back with a Cyanogen kernel.... Please search around about RAM, kernels ect. ..... I have a feeling your completely confused.... No offense or flame, just saying....
[Nexus One General] Chosen_on184:
I remember when this was implemented on the G1 the downside of it was high intense graphic games took a hit ..

will this increase here have the same effect ?
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
NO. It's not the same thing you're talking about.

Could you let this long-time-irrelevant thread sink back to forum depths, please?
[Nexus One General] kebibg:
Hello,

I have Nexus ONE with cyanogen mod 7 and he show 406Mb RAM!!!!

Phisicaly Nexus ONE have a 576MB of RAM but not use it.

I buy Nexus S and i am confused because 2.3 use only 346MB of inside

mounted 512MB ram.

I put (after Root) Cyanogenmod 7 for Crespo on it but RAM again is 346MB.

This is very strange because once kernel maked for Nexus ONE (HTC) if

i am not in mistake will work correct and on Nexus S (Samsung).
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
No, you just don't understand what you are talking about. Now just let this thread die.

I've just installed it on my Leo with no result... :(

Taping on Select& Delete lock screen on the S'Skin Settings screen shows you a .NET error with the following description: ... IndexOutOfRangeException in ...:temp_lockscreenEvent()

By the way the human (YelowMan) theme contains the file human.swf (Flash).

My Leo cannot play Flash. And I've installed the latest (official) .NET (3.5).

Any ideas to make YellowMan work? :)

hi guys i posted this earlier but in the wrong place.. i really need some help with my htc hd2 im looking for anything to funk it up and maybe some cool apps.. any games anyone thinks are cool... and before i forget can i change the clock and themes really want to change them!!! thanks for your help and hope to get lots of replys!!! mark:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nutmegy:
come on mate... i will warn you now before you get a flood of abuse hurled at you..

just use the forum search....

or just go through the threads in this section of the forum...

the most popular ones tend to be the most updated... :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] harrison6870:
new to this!!

new to this i can take abuse!!! only joined yesterday and was just after some help as im not very technical we all have to start and learn somewere dont we... so those who feel the need to abuse please feel free to and those who kindly wish to offer help please feel free to... thanks mark
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anomandrus:
Hi mate, I agree that everyone has to start learning from somewhere.. You don't have to be very technical do use some of the apps and themes. Just read very carefully the instructions and you'll be fine.

Now I know that a lot of people don't like the words "use the search" but in that case it's the best thing to do. Just type "theme" or :icon changer" or "tweaks" or "games" and you'll have a lot of results and different was to make your phone look and work better.

Nevertheless you'll have to do some work yourself by reading all the stuff.

Before I get hammered for :) i wish you good luck...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nutmegy:
yea sorry i didn't mean to put you off or anything just, i know there are a few people on here who would crucify you...

for games i have FPSECE 0.10 which is a superb Playstation 1 emulator.. go to www.fspece.net for the details

in terms of other tweaks and stuff... i would recommend searching as everyone's taste is different..

Is anyone else having problems with the facebook app not syncing all the contacts. I set it up and only about 3 facebook contacts synced and I'm sure I have more friends then that, lol. Is there a way to manually link a contact to a facebook profile?
[Nexus One General] stealthchicken75:
There is a setting that will only import certain contacts. You can set it up to import ALL contacts instead.

And yes, you can join Google contacts to Facebook contacts. Just open either one up, press the menu button on the bottom and use the "join" option.
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Unfortunately this screws around with names. Youre forced to have first and last names.

Cant have "Uncle Jim" or "Mom".
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
There's no way to force the Gmail contact to be dominant?
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
None that Im aware of...desperately searching :mad:
[Nexus One General] JHaste:
i havnt figured one out... but you can just list the people in contacts who have phone numbers... that cut my list down by prolly 60% since most people dont list their number lol...

when it first synced i went WTF ARE ALL THESE PEOPLE DOING IN HERE?! GO AWAY!

[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
Sorry if this seems noobish but if I get one of those cheap little mini usb to micro usb adapters, can I use it to connect my Nexus One to my old G1 wall charger. Is there any difference in voltage or whatever that might damage the new phone?

EDIT: One of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=380195084986&view=all&tid=147583237025
[Nexus One General] stealthchicken75:
You should be able to do that without any issues whatsoever. Same power output, different plug.
[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
Great, thanks
[Nexus One General] dwang:
actually this is incorrect.

the g1 uses htc's proprietary ext usb connector format which is not the same as mini usb.

This means that a micro to mini usb adapter will NOT work on the g1 charger.
[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
Sorry, I don't get what you mean? I have connected my G1 with loads of different mini usb cables (Nokia ones, printer ones, the one that came for charging my PS3 controllers) and it seems to work fine. I have also used the G1 charger to charge a bluetooth headset. Seems standard to me :confused:
[Nexus One General] student.driver:
I have the G1 and the N1 and got the micro-USB adapters. They work with the car and wall chargers just fine. I even used the adapter on a cable and charged off a PC. It's fine.
[Nexus One General] dwang:
A g1 will work with a mini usb cable, but the g1 charger cable is extusb fromat which means those mini to micro usb will not work.

all you have to do is look at a mini usb cable and compare it to the g1 usb cable/charger. The connectors are NOT the same.
[Nexus One General] godsfilth:
Early model G1's came with an incorrect charger that was standard usb-mini B so it is possible that you can if you have that charger
[Nexus One General] dwang:
that wasn't the OP's question.
[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
I thought extusb just had extra pins for audio? Since the connector is physically the same wouldn't the adapter just lack the audio pins and thus not be able to pass those through (not a problem if you just want to charge)?
[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
Ahh, that explains it. I just looked more closely and I see that the G1 socket is a different shape with only one indent (obviously extusb) but the plug on the charger is indented on both sides (standard mini usb). I guess this is how they extusb is backwards compatible.

In other words, my G1 charger is usb mini B so the adapters will work. Amazingotron

EDIT: This does raise the question, why would they use extusb for the chargers anyway? There is no audio to pass through and since standard mini usb is compatible, it must be cheaper to stick one of those in the box than a proprietary-ended charger.
[Nexus One General] student.driver:
I have two G1s, and one was a preorder. The wallworts were different but the connector plugs are the same: mini-USB. I use my adapter on my G1 charger.
[Nexus One General] Valicore:
An adapter should work fine, the US cable and the headphones that came with the G1 had the extusb connector, the charger however was normal mini-USB.
[Nexus One General] snofrandy:
using a microusb works fine for me too even for data transfers to pc.

anyone notice though that the n1 charges REALLY SLOW when it's using the G1 charger? i'm in vegas right now and using my g1 charger w/ a microusb. I left my N1 charger at home. But from about 50%, it took literally around 3 hours to charge back to 100%. The specs for output is 5V@1A manufactured by PHIHONG

You can do, up to 1000 mA are allowed
[G1 Apps and Games] Basket Lotioner:
I know this is possible, but what I want to know is if a compiler that can already be ran on Android exists? You could code one or port a C coded compiler to the phone, seeing as how Android can run native C. Or you could code or port a java based compiler that would run. Anyone know of one? Or willing to punch one out real quick?
[G1 Apps and Games] lbcoder:
Android runs Linux. You can install any compiler you want just like on any other Linux.

Just dont expect to get any IDE running.
[G1 Apps and Games] blackgin:
Don't you need a compiler compiled for the device processor?
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
It would be quite easy to install debian then apt-get install g++.
[G1 Apps and Games] the_fish:
you can easily develop C / C++ apps using the NDK. just google it. :P
[G1 Apps and Games] lbcoder:
@fish: You either completely missed the question or have no idea what the NDK is for. I suggest a little more research.

@blackgin: yes, so cross-compile your compiler on your desktop and then install it. That IS the normal way.
[G1 Apps and Games] blackgin:
Yes, but.. How? xD
[G1 Apps and Games] Freedomcaller:
i didi it with debian on my phone, took forever to compile even the simplest apps....
[G1 Apps and Games] the_fish:
Woops, yep i misread the title. Whatever. If you want to crosscompile it for android you will need the ndk as well, right? Other crosscompilers won't work i guess because of different crt*.o's... at least i had no success in native android shell :s
[G1 Apps and Games] lbcoder:
That is WAY beyond the scope of this forum. It is a seriously BIG DEAL.

Hey folks, I'm pretty new to this whole world, but I've been learning.

Sorry if this has been addressed already, but I couldn't find a definitive answer.

Is it technically possible to alter the look of the google search application? I love having it on my home screen, but the google logo kinda spoils the aesthetic imo.

Thanks in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
yeh, il see what i can do later, im headin out now but it should be possible
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
is this the same widget that your talking about?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
cuz there is an htc search widget... just doesnt have the voice typing button
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
hmm, so i went to erase the logo.. but when my phone came on it was still there.. but i erased it... it didnt make sense so i finally went to the android home instead of sense.. and apparently i deleted the google logo, only when the google search widget is used on the android home...

this doesnt make sense.. why would htc not use the same files? nnot only did they make a new search...they also copied the google search lol

soo.. i guess i have to ask what rom your using?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] G8D:
Wait.. You can theme the Hero?!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] crankthat:
Thanks for your replies so far.

That is indeed the widget I'd like changed, and I'm using MCR 3.0.

The thing I actually love about it is the voice search feature, having it on the home screen makes quick searches really convenient.

The HTC search widget looks awesome, exactly the kind of thing I'd prefer having :)

Cool themes btw.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
alright il see if i can erase the google logo, and colour the bckground blackish (or il try and match sense)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] G8D:
You know that if you tap the hardware search button you can type your query, but if you hold it you launch search by voice..

I find that this removes my need for the widget.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] crankthat:
Wow, G8D I didn't realise that, that's pretty cool, thanks!

It's still been interesting poking about, learning some stuff, but that solution looks good for now :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
ok well heres the widget, with the logo takin out, same colour as usual tho... if you want it changed i can probably do that too.

oh but if you have a theme, i think this file will over right the bottom sense buttons( add, all prgrams, phone) like so they will look like normal after this...

basically this will work if you dont have a theme or if you only have a theme where the notification bar is changed
