[Nexus One General] flarbear:
Unfortunately since these phones are purchased through a "3rd party" (i.e. Google rather than directly from T-Mobile) they get you coming and going. Two different parties have a piece of you now. Google charges a fee because the subsidy they would have gotten for your contract gets pulled and they need to recoup the money. T-Mobile then charges a cancellation fee as a standard practice for you walking out on all that revenue you had "promised" them in the contract. I think it is $350 to Google and another $200 to T-Mobile.

If you are within 14 days (or 30 days in California) then you can return it and buy an unsubsidized full price version. You'll get your money back and won't be charged any subsidy recovery fees or contract cancellation fees, but you will have to pay for cell phone usage during the time you had it.

Also, you can always try to talk to T-Mobile and they may be able to waive the cancellation fee to convert your EM contract into an EM+ account without you having to go through the entire process. It would still trigger Google's "equipment recover fees", and it would again help if you were within the "buyer's remorse" time frame, but it might avoid having to do the whole return and configure a new phone process. In either case it will depend a lot on your begging^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hnegotiation skills...
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
I signed up yesterday so cant I just cancel that line from t-mobile with no charge then just pay google the other 350?
[Nexus One General] lessthanjoey:
If you signed up yesterday then just return the phone. You have 14 days to do that (30 in California) for a full refund minus $45. Do that and then re-order without a subsidy. It's cheaper.
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
Yea that was my original plan but wouldnt it technically be the same price without all the wait?

I paid $180.00 then decided i didnt want the contract so cancel that and pay google the $350.00 to make it $530.00 total.

EDIT- I should clarify I already have the EM+ plan and added a line. I want to keep the EM+. Just cancel the new line I opened.
[Nexus One General] Slimgym20:
Just cancel your new tmo plan - there will be no charge from them since you signed up yesterday. Once google catches that you cancelled and didn't return the phone I would imagine they would just charge you the $350 on the credit card you used originally to pay.
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
thats what I was thinking as well. I sure wish google had a phone center set up for the nexus so I could just call and have them take it out now. So four weeks down the road I get a charge.

Do you guys think that it would be the 14days that you have to return it. After the 14 days if they check and see its canceled would they charge me then?
[Nexus One General] Jack Everyman:
I purchased on subsidy and then switched to the EM+ and haven't yet been charged, and I got it on the first day. So, I'm not exactly sure when they will charge the remainder.
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
yikes! hopefully they do it in a reasonable time frame. guess I will just be sure i have that 350.00 in there at all times.

That was a few days over 14 for you. I was sure it would at least come out by then.

Maybe because you didnt actually cancel your contract you found some sort of loophole?
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
Ok so I Spoke to a t-mobile rep and said that you have to return the phone to google first, then I can cancel the contract. Darn, looks like im going to have to do it the long way, ship back and wait then buy unsubsidized :-(
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
The Google terms say that "this is just an equipment recovery fee" or something like that and go on to say "your provider may also charge you a cancellation fee". Check on that because the $350 is just what you pay Google, but T-Mobile can also charge you.

It may be that they don't, the Google terms don't say that they definitely will, they just say that their charge is independent of any cancellation charges, so don't assume that the $350 is the only charge you might pay...
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
well its a new line so I can cancel within 14 days with no charge. I discussed this with a Rep and I pretty much just have to send it back, cancel the added account, get my refund and then buy it unsubsidized so I can stay on my EM+ plan.
[Nexus One General] atlp99:
Call T-mobile and cancel the line

Since Google sold you the phone, just call T-mobile and cancel the line. If they say that you have to send the phone back just tell them you already returned it to Google. ( normally when you buy a phone from a t-mobile store with the subsidy and contract, you have to return the phone before you can cancel the account). Because the handset return is not going through T-Mobile they have no way of tracking the return to Google.

I am not sure how long it will take Google to charge your account, I would assume it will be fairly quickly after the 14 days or cancellation but it could be months. If Google is waiting on T-Mobile to pay them the commission for activating your new line it could be months. T-Mobile commissions are paid to 3rd party dealers a month behind. Google gets paid for your activation in February if you activated in January. Because of that it may take a while before you get charged for not keeping the new line. This is also why you have to keep the new line for 120 days, that is the charge back period for 3rd party dealers with T-Mobile (if you cancel within 120 days, Google looses the money from T-Mobile)
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Just to clarify... if you cancel a new T-mobile line within the first 120 days, Google will charge their ERF. They have your credit card on file and you agreed to letting them charge it again if you cancel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 13oots2:
I have been happily flashing ROM's, creating a Goldcard for a couple of weeks since getting my Hero and have just done a Radio update. I just realised I have no idea what the Radio update actually does.

Could someone explain in fairly simple terms what it is all about, I guess I have cat blood and curiosity has got the better of me:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Sure. The radio update flashes the software on the little 'chip' that deals with mobile network/GPS/WiFI/Bluetooth etc. (basically all communications).

The update changes the software to a newer version, which can give better signal and battery life (It's a bit like flashing a normal ROM, except it's only for the communications hardware or baseband as iPhone users call it).

For more info, see http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-update-zip-format-for-gsm-hero/#entry1059164 which also gives you a list of them
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 13oots2:
Thanks for the prompt reply and simple terms. I am almost getting to the stage where I am qualified to make a phone call:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] duck0:
Ah, great, I was wondering about this too. Is there any difference which radio rom you flash apart from GSM/CDMA? (My Hero has a suspicious "EU" in it which the roms I've seen online have not. Might just be some versioning, but then again it might be "europe"...)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torstenk:
How do you update your radio? Do you have to wipe?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shenye:
EU doesnt mean europe, it is a way of identifying the radio version, like there is JU, JH, etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] duck0:
I found this out from other sources in the mean while (and forgot about this thread; it's been a couple of weeks after all), but thanks for replying anyway, it'll surely help the next guy wondering. :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] craig0r:
In the link posted a few posts up, you'll find the radio updates in the update.zip format needed to update via recovery mode, like any other custom ROM flash to your phone. However, Radio updates are typically included in the official RUU updates as well, but those will obviously unroot your phone.

Aside from increasing battery life/signal strength, radio updates can bring bugfixes and features. Newer OS ROMs typically work best with the latest Radio ROMs. After I rooted, I had an "EU" radio on my Telus Hero, and I couldn't make long distance calls unless the phone number had a "+" in front of it in my contact list. Updating the radio fixed that. Hope this info helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torstenk:
yeah it helped

But i dont understand the order of updating. First i transfer the update of the ROM to the phone and call it update.zip and the flash that ROM. But then i have to boot up the phone, to transfer the new radio and boot that.

Can it be true that i have to boot the phone and then tranfer the new radio, and the go into bootloader and flash the new update.zip?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] craig0r:
OK. Well, the file doesn't *have* to be called update.zip. The recovery image has an option to choose a zip file, which makes things much much easier, as you can flash several files without rebooting, although I believe you have to reboot as part of the radio flash process. With this in mind, I would flash the OS update first, then the radio update. However, it really doesn't matter what order you flash them in. While the OS and radio rely on each other for the phone to operate properly, they are completely separate and individual from a flashing standpoint. They both get flashed in the exact same way from the recovery image, however with the radio, rebooting the phone is a necessary part of the process. If you were (for some dumb reason) to flash the radio and then remove the battery before the phone had completely rebooted, you'd end up with a broken (and possibly bricked) phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I wouldn't flash a radio without having an os installed, so if you have wiped then flash an os first. Just to make sure everything goes smooth.

A new radio file won't install until you do the first boot after installing which from memory is forced on you, so you will want to have a rom installed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jsampedro:
Thanks for the information about radio, quite useful. I have tried several ROMs lately but haven´t touched the radio yet. I guess if update to more recent one can improve battery and signal as it has been mentioned before.

I will try and see how my Hero behaves :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yeah once again just make sure you install the radio for your phone type.

E.g. GSM (I am guessing as you are on this forum and not he sprint one)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alpha124:
So basically you just have to watch out if the radio is for GSM or CDMA and then you are good to go?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yes

And don't panic when it takes up to 5 mins to boot first time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Amivieu:
Radio update

HI ALL

please ,if i flah the radio , i loste des root ?.

And please wish methode to flash wihtout lost the root

PS:I have the hero

thanks for help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
flashing radio doesn't do anything to the rom, you won't lose your root.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Amivieu:
thanks Lennyuk,

Please you confirm that if i flash only the radio ,the root is not pacted ?

Sorry for my bad english and my bad request
[Shift Development] premier69:
I was wondering if anyones gone before me and done this and has any thoughts and ideas to share.

IF anyone is familiar with 7customizer, I was never clear now in it's v1.13 stage that it had any ability to remove crap like vlite to make a slimmed version of win7 suitable for the HTC SHIFT with as small HDD footprint and few running services as possible.

7customizer is new and seems limited but built for win7.

vlite is said to work well with win7 but is built for vista.

I have tried 7customizer and all i was able to do was make the installation of win7 unattended which is a real whop-di-do...

vlite for win7 i tried but and got the image from 2.3gb down to 1.2gb which is real nice but upon selecting regional settings in the first stage it then asked me for some drivers and showed a blank dialog box, i never got past this stage to chose which partition to install on and got stuck.

has someone perhaps done this successful with a saved vlite preset on what was saved and what got chucked?

is all this maybe to much trouble to go through for ultimately little gain?

Had a bit of difficulty sleeping last night so i got started on this project and spent some time thinking about it and i decided to ask you guys for help.
[Shift Development] kashifsiddique:
Tiny 7 is worth a look with an installation size of 2.6gb (on the hdd) but i couldnt get the touchscreen to work on it :confused:
[Shift Development] premier69:
tiny 7 is a program or a home made ISO of win7?

But the lack of touchscreen is a dealbreaker, you sure theres no hope?
[Shift Development] kashifsiddique:
Unless they decide to add it again, I tried the add/remove windows features with no luck.
[Shift Development] BallGor:
I know there is a way to slim your Windows 7 but I have not tried. Please cked the following:

http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/windows-7/8441-how-slim-down-windows-7-a.html
[Shift Development] kashifsiddique:
Some progress ive tried vlite to copy tiny7 with no luck however ive found out that the driver is installing (the touchscreen shows up in HID's)

The problem is the lack of the TabletInputService which should be eaiser to port than the entire tablet pc components. The service points to

C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k LocalSystemNetworkRestricted

If we could find a way to add this service to tiny7 we will have an iso that only takes up 2.4GB of hdd and flys on the HTC Shift.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] fireinthesky2night:
HBoot 1.33.2005

Sapphire PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H

CPLD-10

RADIO 3.22.20.17

So this is a mytouch3g phone, but i accidently put a magic 1.5 nbh file on through hboot. I have been trying to root this for a week now. After flashing the wrong nbh file(it was the htc ch 2.20.401.2sappimg.zip file), things have gotten crazy. I started with G and now have H and am using an Htc recovery. For whatever reason it wont load a rom. I know things look weird becuase instead of the mytouch splash screen i have the Magic. its funny because i used to be able to log into the phone on the Magic, but now I cant. Im at a lose on what to do and dont know if i should even hboot another nbh file, and start from scratch. Any suggestions would be nice. I have tried many many things and am getting tired of seeing this splash screen. I think if I had a full rom this would help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] BoomBoomPOW:
Do what you intended to do. Hboot the proper nbh file, make sure it's the correct one this time:p
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] fireinthesky2night:
ok, thank you so much for the quick reply and the vote of confidence on my excellent rooting skills...haha i tell you i have rooted 3 of my own android phones and when it comes to someone elses now you have trouble. I had to create a freeking gold card and sign up for a rapidshare account so i could get the right nbh file cuz obviously the free one means vodafone! oh boy so right now im trying to see if a hero rom didnt overwrite the boot files but still not looking good. the thing is at one point i thought i tried hbooting the sapp.img, but it was on the gold card?...is there a difference to hbooting off the gold card and hbooting on a normal sd. because when i first hbooted the magic.nbh it was on a normal sd card..i wonder if this is unrepairable for me to figure out...crap

i mean even if i was to change it back to the G for google boot with mytouch3g splash screen with a rooted nbh file, ..how would that work have an H recovery image which i have on there now...im so confused.

Dear all,

I'm interested if and how it is possible to access micro SDIO cards in Android. I would like to stream data from an external device to an Android phone over ANT (thisisant.com) or Bluetooth. Is that somehow supported by Android? If not, what is required to do it?

Thanks for any clarification.

Martin
[Android Software Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Not sure what micro SDIO cards are, or about ANT, but you should be able to do bluetooth through at least the NDK.
[Android Software Development] andjohn:
Didn't even click on his link did you. ANT is a low power alternative for bluetooth and is used in exercise equipment as an example. I think this would be great, as I am getting a TI watch with it :) I think, however that the drivers might need a TONNE of work to get working with android. I wouldn't count on it dude.

hey how know about a video player with full screen botton ?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Z51:
have u tried nemo ?:confused:

yea but is to slow and when you push the full screen botton you only cant see a white screen with the sound and nothin alse not another player ?:(

Act 1 video player is pretty good. Pause and play with a tap of the screen and ff or rw by sliding your finger forward or backwards. full screen works great on the nexus.

Personally I just use the built in media player, works in fullscreen and gets the job done just fine.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] galaxys:
Ok I give, where is this video media player? what is the app name on the N1?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kscasper13:
if your movie isnt playing in full screen, then you didnt encode the movie to the correct resolution. encode your movies whether they be rips or mkv's, make sure you encode at 800x480 mp4, 24fps, AAC 96, good to go. if you have no idea what i'm talking about, then do more reading
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sEventoRii:
I want to ask the same question too:p
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] carnegie0107:
It's called "Gallery." Your videos are listed alongside your pictures. Or choose a video with any file browser.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBS_:
Yeah, I should've mentioned where it was, not exactly intuitive in my opinion. As carnegie0107 says it's the gallery app. I had actually installed Act 1 Trial because I couldn't find the built-in one and when I launched a video file from a file browser it asked if I wanted to open it in Gallery so I gave it a go and it worked like a charm. So no need to spend money on a video player unless it adds support for more codecs :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] karnovaran:
Act1 is great. I had a 640*480 video that needed to be stretched to the full 800 pixels for proper viewing and Act1's full screen mode did the trick. It also shows battery level and time without being obtrusive and has quick access to brightness controls.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] galaxys:
Thanks guys! Tested & Gallery seems to do the trick for now...cool :cool:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] truelies1:
No. It doesn't work. I hope it has a video player like apple's. After click a key, the picture will be stretched at top and bottom. The left and right side will be cut a little. Note screen is 1280*800, but the 720p is 1280*720. if have this, it will be full screen.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
Try MX Video Player it has extra codecs and such. Runs fullscreen, easier fast forward and rewind.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] truelies1:
Tried all five codecs, I think the 'crop' mode should work, but it's same as full screen, there has a problem.

Its fast its nice but how can I do following:

Install programs only on sd card for saving internal memory?

stop the sound of fotocam by shooting a foto?

enable led on recording videos?

thx
[Nexus One General] Orangeandblue302:
To Put the Apps on the SD Card you must Root your Nexus.

To stop the sound of the Camera you can disable the sound in your settings by pressing menu.

Enable the LED during recording may require root as well. I think thats the only way, possibly with Nexus Torch. Not sure though.
[Nexus One General] zjchaser:
I'm curious about this too. its not in the camera app settings.

To stop the shutter noise just place your phone on silent or vibrate

ok to set on vibrate is a way but i would like to unenable it...

two more issues, how can i use adove flash f.e. i would like to view the desktop youtube site version but it wont work... is there a way like its shown in some presetation videos?

is there any software out for sharing the connection (wlan or 3g) with a windwos computer, my nexus one would became a wlanstick?
[Nexus One General] seanowns:
I've heard Camera FX on the market has the ability to turn off the sound. Not sure, but someone mentioned that.

Dolphin browser will allow you to set yourself as a "desktop" which should make all website's show up as they normally would on a computer, but I don't know if youtube would work like this. It might require flash update that we will get shortly.

Eitherway, your youtube thing will be fixed soon.
[Nexus One General] audino:
Ill try it later...

And a new one, is there a way to automaticly connect my contacs to facebook?

i would like to have the pictures of thosewho ae in facebook also in my nexus one without to copy and paste them by my self...
