The phone fits pretty snug into the dock. I'm not sure if you have a case for instance it would fit in it. :eek:
[Nexus One Accessories] timmins:
I'm having the same problem but Dock isn't listed there. I'm assuming that as a result of hitting OK when the default setting is do NOT allow media and sounds to go through the dock that all of the features were not installed in the Settings panel.

Really, really dumb move on my part to make this mistake and Google's part for leaving the setting as checked OFF and remember this setting as checked on.
[Nexus One Accessories] krohnjw:
Does it show up if you check while it is docked?
[Nexus One Accessories] xavina:
Just chiming in on the dock holding skin type protectors.

If you use any of the clear skin type protectors (zagg, etc) it does fit.

I'm going to bet that the silicone type of cases and hard cases will not though

(It looks like it's meant just for the phone; no protectors)

Also of note, there is no rail system (best way for me to describe it)

That holds the phone in place (If I tilt it forward, the phone will fall out).

This makes for easy insertion into the dock though, so your call if it's a nice feature or not.

Lastly, I have a skinomi protector on my phone, soon to be removed, but it does leave some marks on the nice polished docking station. Just a heads up
[Nexus One Accessories] DebauchedSloth:
I did that too, and I was able to turn it back on by going into settings while dock. Sounds & display/dock audio.

[Nexus One Accessories] droiddv:
Well that pretty much was about the perfect video for describing the dock. Nice job dude. I ordered my dock as soon as I saw it on the internet which was Thursday afternoon. I chose the 2 day Fed-ex air. Of course I got slammed with the weekend, and I live in Oregon. So my tracking says Monday. Weekends always seem to screw you. Damn it. I could of just went free ground at this point and got it Tues. Oh well.
[Nexus One Accessories] timmins:
Thanks for the compliments. I hate playing the shipping game. I'm notorious for trying to guess the originating location and then base my shipment selection to get packages to arrive prior to the weekend. Thanks again.

This dock looks interesting enough - at least it charges and syncs data! If only it had the audio output, I would buy it in an instant!
[Nexus One Accessories] Henchman:
now that's more like it.

$25,-
[Nexus One Accessories] JanetPanic:
Except it uses the USB connector. I realize you need it to mount the phone but based on my G1 doc is it a little fiddly to get the phone on. It would be nice if someone were to offer a cheaper dock that uses the dock pins to charge. I could live without bluetooth or passthrough audio.
[Nexus One Accessories] droiddv:
Dude this dock looks so much better than the Google Nexus one dock. I paid 50 bucks before I found out the gold contacts were not capable of data.

I so much wanted the gold contacts too work for everything, but since the only way to do data is the microusb slot. Then this dock seems to be perfect.
[Nexus One Accessories] trinode:
http://www.dsldevelopments.com/brodit/Holder/Nexus+One-Brodit-Holder.asp

I ordered this, and I wish to hell it had the nexus one gold power pins instead of the micro usb. (I really don't like slotting my device onto a connector, a broken usb port isn't too appealing :/ )

Bluetooth is on every PC in the house, and in every car in the household.

at £10 for an absolutely tiny usb adapter, or £80 for an aftermarket (big name) stereo that does a2dp, phonebook sync, and works with the car steering wheel controls and in dash display, what excuse is there not to? :)
[Nexus One Accessories] timmins:
Sorry, I didn't see this reply earlier. I'm almost certain it does not show at all if you "remember this setting". I tried just about every single Setting section while docked and undocked. I checked Applications to see if I could delete something to trigger the option. At the end of a long investigation, factory reset was the only clear option.

Sucks, too, since I had almost everything configured perfectly.
[Nexus One Accessories] mlevin:
Wait, I'm confused.

Based on the video at http://www.androidspin.com/2010/01/30/nexus-one-desktop-dock-unboxing-and-review/ it would appear that you can send ALL audio through the dock or not, but you can't do it selectively.

I want my MUSIC to go through the dock but I want my RINGER to ring on the phone.

If I have my stereo turned off or set to another input, I still want to use the dock as a charger.

Does this mean that if I send audio through the dock and the stereo is off then I won't even hear the phone ring? Because if so, that's incredibly stupid.

Can someone who already has the dock please confirm?

Thanks
[Nexus One Accessories] Seraph321:
Confirmed. That's how it works. You can let it ask you each time you dock whether you want to use the audio-out, but when it's enabled, you hear all audio (including the ring) through that. It's the same thing that happens if you have wireless headphones hooked up, so I wouldn't say it's that surprising. My phone is always set to vibrate in addition to ringing, and it still vibrates when on the dock.

In your case, I suppose a possible solution would be to just quickly re-seat the phone and choose the audio output option when you are about to listen on your stereo, but you'd have to remember to re-seat it again when you turn it off. Or maybe you could toggle bluetooth on and off.
[Nexus One Accessories] trovatrice:
For those of us who are typing-challenged, the dock also secures the phone at a very comfortable viewing angle and allows for much more quick and accurate (hands-free, two-index-finger) text input! :) I no longer dread replying to long emails from the phone, which makes it a great investment!

I've also noticed that it stays on 3G much better when docked. (undocked, it still drifts between 3g and edge inside my house)
[Nexus One Accessories] krohnjw:
Interesting, mine shows up when I am docked even with remember settings checked (Settings -> Sounds and display -> Dock Audio) when I am docked. *Shrug*
[Nexus One Accessories] GelatinousSlime:
The audio functionality changed with the new OTA update. Before it was all audio or nothing, now the option is to send only music/media. For me that is good because that is what I wanted, but for others that DID want rings/alarms/etc to also go through the doc audio will be disappointed. I think it should be an option, media only or all audio.

I verified by putting it in the doc and telling it to send music through the doc and plugged in some headphones. I started playing music and then set an alarm and had somebody call me. The music came out of the headphones and the alerts/alarms came out of the phone speaker. Thats exactly what I wanted, so I'm happy. :)
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
That's awesome... thanks for the update! This is the behavior I had hoped for as well.
[Nexus One Accessories] Seraph321:
I'm happier with it the old way, but I can see how the new way is what a majority of people would probably expect, and I can live with it. I just thought it was nice to not worry about text message noises while at work. I could always try and get Locale (though I'm told it sucks now) or some other program to change my settings while at work.
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
More than one type of Nexus One dock on the way?

For those of you that want a dock that syncs data.. check out this link and tell me what you see on the dock to the left? Yeah... a slot to charge a spare battery AND what appears to be a microUSB plug. I don't know if Google actually plans to release that dock, since we haven't seen anything in FCC documents... though if it doesn't have bluetooth, it probably doesn't need FCC approval. Anyway, if they DO release that dock... you all should be happy campers.

Oh, and the car dock is on the right. ;)

[Nexus One Accessories] xManMythLegend:
Can any of you comment on the quality and range of audio over BlueTooth ?

Im interested in the dock purely for the ability to play my music over the BT but if its anythign like headset quality I dont want to.
[Nexus One Accessories] drpfenderson:
I don't know if this has already been pointed out yet, but you totally don't need to factory reset to change the dock mounting preferences.

All you need to do is go to Bluetooth settings, and then unpair the dock. Next time you plug it in, it will give you the same option as before. ;)

Seems to work pretty well, I haven't had any problems when listening to music throughout my apartment, a couple times it starts to skip, but its only a rare occasion.
[Nexus One Accessories] xManMythLegend:
/\ Cool. Thanks.
[Nexus One Accessories] vsc:
Returning my dock for a refund.

- Audio quality of Bluetooth by definition is a joke (e.g. you use Bluetooth for audio when other options are not an option).

- Phone doesn't fit the dock with a skin on the phone.

- Dock wears away the phone's teflon coating from normal friction when the phone is inserted / removed from the dock (e.g. the base black plastic color shows through where the dock is in contact with the phone).

The dock is not worth $45 for for something that at best charges the phone, has poor audio quality and damages the phone's surface.

My 2c.
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
Can you post detailed pics of the wearing away of the teflon?
[Nexus One Accessories] krohnjw:
For what it's worth I drop it in and out several times a day and have yet to see any sort of "wear".
[Nexus One Accessories] vsc:
Can't. Phone swapped with HTC and the new unit has a skin on it. Thus it has no marks.

But for this issue it is worth checking out the threads on the Google Android (N1) help forum.

I think the reason the problem occurred with the dock is that I was using the phone while in the dock (e.g. the phone was moving when I touched the screen).
[Nexus One Accessories] scuzzy19:
Yes it does I have a Gelaskin on my nexus one and it sits and charges just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defaria:
What is it with cell phones and dial tones? Why is it that sometimes when I'm typing in a number the dial tones lag behind or go one for 1-2 full seconds? This isn't rocket science or at least it shouldn't be. What's so damn hard about having it such that when the user pressing on say #3 the dialtone is immediately (and I mean immediately) sounded and 3 is registered into the phone and the user is set to enter the next number?!? There should be no delay for the dialtone to sound or to stop or for the number to not be immediately registered!!! I thought this was a silly WinMo thing but it happens on Android too. What's the deal? Shouldn't typing in phone numbers be instantaneous?!?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimPup:
Can't say this has ever happened to me before on Android but I also turn my dial tones off. I did have it happen on winmo but only with tons of apps running in the background. Never really been in such a rush to dial a number either though lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordhelmet00:
I gotta say I have the same issue with the Hero. It LAGS big time. At this stage of the game with phones, you should be able to dial #s effortlessly. BIG disappointment that Android out of the box lacks the power to dial #s effortlessly.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abcdfv:
Well you can always either use the Sprint 1.56 RUU, or just switch to a different ROM, or just make a nandroid backup now.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trapharder4844:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abcdfv:
Basically, it's an program for your computer, and when you run it it makes the phone go back exactly how it was when you bought it.

Nothing.

Chances are one of the ROM Devs will incorporate that update into the next ROM they put out. Most of the time, the Devs here work faster then Sprint/HTC

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Apparently the theme I want to switch to requires a custom SPL. I have some questions about that process. First, which SPL should I use: HardSPL or the Danger/Haykuro SPL?

I've read that flashing a new SPL is more dangerous than rooting/flashing ROMs and poses a higher risk of bricking your device, is that true?

As for the installation procedure, I was going to use the guide at towards the bottom of this page. Is that the best method to use? I'm new to all of this, so thanks all for your patience!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
haykuro, and make sure you flash the radio first. Find yourself a good guide. I recommend theunlockr.com
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grandomegabosses:
i recommend the danger spl too. but "danger" is really an extreme term. if you read up on it, reread it again, do EVERY instruction as it says, you'll do just fine. i've done it twice already (yes, on the same phone) and i've succeeded both times. do your research and you'll do fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Thanks for the responses. I'll do what was suggested and use the Danger SPL, but what exactly is the difference between the two and why is Danger better?

As far as getting the SPL file on my SD card, I was planning on downloading it to my computer and then copying it to the SD using the USB cable (since I won't have access to a card reader until Saturday). Is that acceptable?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
READ, READ AND READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AGAIN. When you know for sure you know what your doing, read it once more.

Secondly make a nandroid backup.

Next mount your sdcard so you can access it from your computer and then place the spl in the root of your sdcard. Then copy your nandroid backup to your computer (say c:\g1backup for example) unmount your sdcard.

Reboot into recovery and flash the latest radio (you should already have it... but just to be safe) then flash your spl.

Reflash the Cyanogen Rom. Unfortunately, I found this to be necessary because using the Danger SPL modifies the /system/ partition so you can't restore your nandroid backup... but you should be able to restore your data after you flashed your rom.

cd c:\g1backup\nandroid\H*\*\(latest_nandroid_name)\

[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
compcache?
[Hero CDMA General] justinisyoung:
http://android.teknologism.org/

read that, its a gsm hero custom kernel with compcache.

its COMPressed CACHE. i'm not exactly 100% sure about the details of how it works, but it gives a huge performance boost to our device. most of the gsm people who use it say that its a biiig performance gain. i'm guessing since our kernel has been reverse engineered, once the kinks get worked out we can add compcache.
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
That sounds pretty bad ass.
[Hero CDMA General] 5tr4t4:
Not until we get the kernel code for CDMA

One we get our kernel code, we'll have all sort of cools stuff like this, the BFS enhancements, etc, etc.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=609126
[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
It's similar to the swap file. What it does is when the memory runs low, it will swap the program to this special cache...the catch is that it is compressed, so your Hero has to compress and decompress everything in there.

I haven't seen a CDMA ROM that uses it, but I have seen the Davlik trace. If COMCACHE was working, it would affect the following three lines:

I guess it could possibly be considered a matter of opinion, but I would think a swap file on a Class 6 microSD card would be better than a compressed cache.
[Hero CDMA General] jmhalder:
It works just like swap, just sets aside a set amount of ram for a compressed swap image inside the ram... this adds more "virtual"ish memory without having to R/W to NAND/SD at the expense of compressing/decompressing and using cycles for that... its almost nessicary for all dream roms (especially 2.x roms) to run reasonably well... although swap on a class 6 MicroSDHC card might be better, its expensive for large 8/16gb class 6 cards, and the performance may not be much better, also the CDMA hero has more ram than the MT3g/Dream devices so this isnt quite a nessesity yet.

[HD2 General] Cass67:
Hi All,

I have been flashing a few custom roms to my HD2 and have noticed none of them enable the compass to work.. I have used the following cooked roms and wondered if this was a common issue ..

Artemis_v25_WWE_202_23518

EnergyROM_21889_Leo_21.Jan.2010_StandardM2.5_MaxManila

EnergyROM_23518_Leo_21.Jan.2010_StandardM2.5_MaxManila

RUU_Leo_l3v5y_09123001_F_WWE_5.2.28014.5.5.0_2.01

XT_Pandora_1_3B

I first noticed this issue when using the excellent EnergyROM_23518 and figured it was a fault with that .. It seemed not to be .. Right now im downloading the stock 1.43 O2 rom that came on my HD2 to see if this resolves the issue ..

Curious though if this is a common problem seen buy many or if this is something i have lingering from all the flashing i have done ..

Cheers !

EDIT :- I have flashed the stock 1.43 O2 rom to the HD2 and i still have a non working compass.. Magnetic interferance error .. Whats up ?

EDIT2 :- Only difference i can think of is i have an HSPL installed, matter ?
[HD2 General] dazzyd:
i have installed the MIRI ROM and my compass is working. however when i click to "set destination" it says google maps is not installed. however i have installed googlemaps but somehow the compass does not detect that i have installed google maps.

any workaround to fix this issue.??
[HD2 General] Cass67:
Hey, thanks for the tip on Miri, the compass does indeed work .. Now to get it to work propperly i had to install Google Maps cab, it was not installed on this rom out of the box ..

search for googlemaps.cab either here or on google (i tried to post direct link but it seems im not allowed (yet?)

I also installed the BsBTweaks1.6.cab and set it to allowed unsigned applications to run, i did this before i discovered Google Maps was not installed..

now its fine, i can set destination no probs ..

EDIT:- Oops see you installed googlemaps, try a soft reset if that fails trythe unsigned app change..
[HD2 General] Gajet:
Googlemaps must be installed to device memory not the storage card for that to work.

Obviously not.

Not surprisingly, the Nexus One's 1 GHz Snapdragon processor is its most expensive part, followed by the OLED display. Here's the breakdown, according to iSuppli:

* Processor: $30.50

* Display: $23.50

* Memory: $20.40

* Touchscreen assembly: $17.50

* Camera: $12.50

* MicroSD Card: $8.50

* Bluetooth/wLAN: $8.20

* Battery: $5.25

The rest of the cost is taken up by parts such as electrical components, power management technology, and other mechanical hardware.
[General Topics] orb3000:
The Motorola DROID is the most expensive smartphone to produce based on reverse engineering by iSuppli. Parts going into the device cost $179.11 and labor comes to $8.64. The most expensive parts of the handset are the screen and the 16GB microSD card that comes out of the box. The Apple iPhone 3GS is right behind at $178.96 followed by the Nexus One with a value of $174.15 to build. The DROID's 3.7 inch capacitive touchscreen with a leading resolution of 480 X 854 pixels, supports 16 million colors and runs $17.75 per unit. The touchscreen overlay runs $17.50 making the combined cost of the screen and the overlay $35.25 or 18% of the DROID's total expense.
