I mean Im sure if its while youre tethered of course it could interfere thats a lot of processing and your connections only so fast depending on what youre doin on your comp you could be maxin it out. Right after I dont know unless its still trying to send packets or something. Ive never tried this but I will when I get a chance, i have 2 lines so I can call myself and see what it sounds like on both ends.
[Nexus One General] mhaedo:
Has anyone else had this issue? I'm starting to think it's completely unrelated to tethering and I think I may have simply gotten a defective phone. I cannot describe how frustrating it is for people to constantly say "Hello, Hello?" or ask me if I have them on speakerphone. I'm constantly told that I cannot be heard.

I just spent $560 for a neat little mobile device that doesn't work as a PHONE.

Hi,

When you open up messages or email using the tabs on the HTC UI, it always opens to the last message/mail, is there any way you can chane it so that messages always opens up to "All messages", and email to "Inbox"?

Also can you change it so that when you go to photos and videos it goes straight to albums rather that showing the first photo?

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] grifforama:
OK,

So I've been round and round with an open ticket with HTC.

My widget when set to 'my location' will work when I'm at my office in Manhattan, but not when I'm at home in Brooklyn.

So, it's defintiely an issue with where the widget is pulling it's data from. Accuweather server probably.

Why will HTC not admit that this is where the problem is ? All I get is "make sure location is switched on' and then 'do a fresh install' blah blah

Anyone else have this problem ?

This has been going on for 3 days now, and I haven't been able to find any topic on this so far.

For the last 3 days, I cant' get any market updates, or new market apps. It just says "starting download", but won't actually download. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Market App (Vending), did a wipe, nothing seems to fix this issue. I even installed a new ROM fresh.

Has anyone come across this issue? Solutions? Am I the only one?

Using Cyanmod - 4.2.12.2

One more Note - Noticed a comment here in the Q&A about Metamorph causing "market issues", but they don't actually describe what the issue is. I did recently install it, changed my power control widget, that was it.

Thanks for your help!

Try this;

Connect to wifi,

Cancel all downloads,

Restart all downloads over wifi.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bedeadu:
Thanks lbcoder, had a feeling it would be you replying to my inquiry. Anyways, I had also tried that method, still nothing. Actually found the link below, people having this issue. To add to your steps they suggest to login to Google Talk. Well, that seems to be an issue as well, i can't login.

The only unusual thing in my logcat seems to be calling for low memory: No more background processes. This is a little odd, never had mem. issue's before, looking at my phone's memory usage in terminal, should be ok.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jinson7:
I had this issue due to my wireless router. Disconnected from the wifi and it all started working. The strange thing was browsing was working and google talk but it just would not download from the market.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bedeadu:
Issue Update - in case others are having this issue - Back in Business

Well, I figured I ran out of options, that is options that didn't require a complete format and wipe of the phone.

I had to follow all the original steps, for installing the newest cyanogen ROM, using the HTC Dev Phone. So, after installing the HTC_DevPhonezip file from their website, applied it, applied Cyan's latest ROM, reboot...Bammm, the market is back, and downloading. Actually it ended up installing all my updates automatically. Guess it was registered through my google account, because I hadn't even installed the apps back to my ext partition yet, after installing new ROMs
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisFix:
Wanted to say thanks for the pointer to starting Google Talk to get my market downloads to work...as soon as I logged into Talk, my downloads started. I had re-flashed, re-formatted and basically tried everything until this simple suggestion fixed the problem. Kind of strange...but thank you!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yipcanjo:
Wow! Thanks for posting this, man. I was racking my brain... as this was the 2nd time I ran into this issue on my phone! Didn't want to wipe/reload once again.

Anyhow, I was using 'Autostarts' to pare down some of the crap that auto-starts with a standard Android build. Since I don't use GoogleTalk, I naturally killed that sucker. I guess I should've thought that it'd be tied to the Marketplace, right? Google Talk + Marketplace = logical :rolleyes: That said, re-enabling Google Talk and restarting resolved my issue.

Thanks again!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SystmDcln:
Every time I read an article of IPhone vs Android the only argument they really have left is "The apps lack polish", and they're right. Why is that? I just don't understand why our apps look drastically different from IPhone apps. Compare our Twitter clients to theirs and it's night and day. When are our developers going to start polishing our apps a bit more?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hotleadsingerguy:
It's very simple. Anyone can develop for Android...but anyone that wishes to develop for Apple has to pay a fee and devote quite a bit of time to app development (for 2 reasons, one because the language is a little more complicated, two because if you have to pay to develop you're going to want to make the app as polished as possible before release).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil_UK:
Hi,

Is there any accessibility app/option to convert stereo to mono on an Android phone. A friend would like an Android phopne but cannot find if this is possible.

Apparently the iPhone has the option in accesibility settings but he'd like to avoid iPhones if possible! Hardware/Headphones were not up to scratch when he tried them.

Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] depawlur:
I'd connect the L and R channels on the jack itself. Like solder them together... or if i had headphones like SHURE i'd use a cable...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil_UK:
I suggested an adapter, but he said he found them poor compared to the iPhone SW solution. :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oberth:
Adaptors are normally pretty useless

As a fellow member of society not blessed with stereo hearing I have been trying to find solutions for this over the years.

Most adaptors simply tie the L and R together but this never seems to work quite right in that the sound from the missing ear is there but only just (Bohemian Rhapsody is just not the same) :) Really it needs something to actively mixdown the audio in the way.

Also there is the fashion horror of having a unsightly leads and lumps from it all dangling about the place.

The best solution I found so far is stereo bluetooth headsets (proper A2DP ones) and use 'Joint Stereo' if you can, it's still not perfect but does help on tracks with heavy stereo parts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oberth:
If anyone still is looking for a solution.

Goto www.scansound.com and check out their 1-Bud range, this is what I said in my above post of needing an active mixing solution.

I bought one of the Pro versions with the offset bud and bass speaker design and it's awesome stuff, aside from being able to hear everything the sound is far better than similarly priced big brand stuff.

I live in the UK and shipping was cheap and very quick, a mate of mine who recently lost hearing in one ear bought the same as me and the cheaper design for his other half to use at work and said the quality was not bad on those either.

if you need a free rmvb player you can download one from link below

http:// www.iorgsoft.com/ RMVB-Converter/

this is for windows, if you have a Mac, doesn't matter, find one there

but the free rmvb player can only install on you rcomputer, rather than on your phone, so, the easiest way should be convert rmvb to your phone, hope this would be helpful.

Thanks
[HD2 General] Archer:
Yes, it's possible, but it's a massive undertaking. In the time that Manila has been about, I've only heard of 2 (I think) tabs being developed for it, other than ones that HTC have made.

Manila is simply not configurable in that manner.
[HD2 General] cyberchiu:
I did some research and see a program call MTP(Manila Today Page) can actually create a icon into the slide bar and link to a self defined program. I wonder how is it work and may be we can write our own icon too:D

[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
so, i have ordered, and not yet received (get tomorrow) my nexus one. one of the things about it is that i only have the 500 minute plan (no, i didn't wanna drop 530 on a phone, lol), but coincidentally, i also like to game on the ps3 with a friend. unlike xbox, ps3 doesn't do private chat, so coordinating is actually easier with a cell phone. because i don't want to eat minutes, my intention was to actually skype him through my wifi. however, now i'm finding out, to the best of my knowledge, our option is 'skype lite', which is essentially a turd, and doesn't do anything for me except route my calls through skype on my phoneline, still using my minutes = worthless to me.

so, you guys have been fiddling with android for a while yet, i'm guessing, and i'm wondering what the best option/workaround is. i've heard mention of 'fring', but am not familiar with it. same with 'iskoot'.

gimme the digs, gents (or ladies, as the case may be). how can i voip using my phone to my buddies, without chewing phone minutes?

appreciated

[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
You're paying for the phone regardless. Contract monthly rate is more than non contract rate.
[Nexus One General] Namuna:
Google Voice comes pre-installed on the N1.

If you don't have a GV account, sign-up for one. It's still by invite only so it may take awhile before you get the invite.

Then you can just go into the 'Voice' app and select to make all calls via Google Voice (which means FREE, doesn't utilize your voice minutes).
[Nexus One General] duncan888:
You can use fring which has skype call support
[Nexus One General] spr33:
Nimbuzz and Fring work well.

Countries outside the US don't get google voice yet.
[Nexus One General] lessthanjoey:
You seem to get a GV account automatically with the Nexus One but it still uses your minutes!
[Nexus One General] aldo37:
Google Voice is not a voice service. You'll still use cell minutes using that alone. You'll need something like Gizmo to voice call over data.

Personally, I use SIPDroid, which integrated perfectly with the N1, GV, and Gizmo. Simply install it, and set up SIPDroid with the settings here:

androidcommunity.com/forums/f4/how-to-free-calls-via-wifi-using-google-voice-and-gizmo5-21836/

Then all calls will always attempt to go through data, if it fails, it will fall back to a normal phone call. Works perfect.
[Nexus One General] Volker1:
sipdroid supports the industry standard for VoIP (i.e. SIP, like the former gizmo5). You can call other software SIP clients, hardware SIP phones, and SIP<->telephone network gateways.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
thanks guys, i'll give this a shot.

and, i already have a GV account. and 2 more invites, lol. i'll just sit on those for a bit...

GV will definitely use minutes, which is what i wanted to avoid. i'll see how the voip options work out. much appreciated.

and, if anyone has any more help/suggestions, it'd be greatly appreciated!

[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
darnit, gizmo5 is no longer an option. new user registration has been suspended :/
[Nexus One General] agentkalaw:
Use sipdroid to tie with GV and that should prevent the minute usage. I use sipdroid with gizmo 5 and that works but sipdroid has its shortcomings though. but it works and if you're on 3G, no one can tell the difference. Check the G1/dream forums for more info on sipdroid. There's also a thread over there about sipdroid/skype and another app for totally free minutes....
[Nexus One General] thewayne01:
I am also using sipdroid, GV and gizmo5. I setup GV to forward to gizmo, and setup sipdroid to login to my gizmo account. All incoming calls to gizmo are free. However if you originate an outgoing call with gizmo, you will be charged the per minute rate by gizmo. To get around this, I use the GV website to originate the call, so that it calls my gizmo account first then connects the call.

Works great so far.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
dang. wish that the gizmo site was still open for new members. :/
[Nexus One General] rjgonza:
I suspect that they closed it once google bought them. They might have invites soon, because google will prolly integrate this they of hack into their google voice service. . .
[Nexus One General] Deathwish238:
Yes it was closed when Google bought Gizmo5. Are there any other alternatives?

Take a look at this article about the Nexus One subsidized vs ubsubsidized.

I wonder how he set that up? I'ld pay $3/month and $30/yr for calls.

I've had the N1 for a day and love it so far, but I seem to be having inconsistent behavior on calendar reminders. I have the calendar set to give a reminder, but it only sometimes sounds the alarm. It will always have the notification in the notification bar, but either the original reminder sound or if I snooze the alarm may not sound. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?
[Nexus One General] bugsy:
There was a post on the google message boards that someone else is having this problem as well. Anyone else hear experiencing erratic behavior from their alarms/calendar reminders?
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
I've had some random issues here and there. I would like more options when it comes to notifications, and more consistency. For one I would like the led indicator to continue flashing indefiantly (as the tool tip says it should) until I acknowledge the notification. The current behavior sounds and flashes once, and if you miss that, then you have no idea you had a notification unless you woke the screen and looked at the bar.

Most annoying is the missed call behavior, but it extends to sms, email, calendar.

Edit: okay, so it does persist, but its too infrequent. one short but slow flash every 30 sec or so. I'd like something every 1 sec or 500ms flash.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetDwarf:
I like the VolumeOverlay cause it's prettier, it doesn't interupt your current task and u can set 15 steps instead of only 5. Here's an instruction how to enable it.

Easy way with registry:

In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\ create a key with any name and in there create a string value with the name: ClassName and the value is the name of the window class (I use BSB->rotation settings to find that out).

That works quite fine with the most application and especially for standby if u use the windows lockscreen u only have to set the value of the string value to ConfettiLockScreen and you dont have to reboot. (It only works if u play some kind of sound otherwise u dont see anything ;)).

In some applications it's more useful to have a tilted VolumeOverlay although the portrait version is quite nice and sufficient.

The harder way:

In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass\ set a key with any name and a string value with the name: ClassName and the value is again the window class name. In addition u need to set in HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI\ a key with the name of the window class and and in there a string value with the name: Enable2ndOverlay with the value: 2.

Example: LockScreen/Standby

1. I look at the window class name with BSB->rotation->add application->shake in lockscreen. Result: ConfettiLockScreen

2. Create a key in HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\ with the name Lockscreen (or any name)

3. In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\Lockscreen\ I create a string value: ClassName->ConfettiLockScreen

I hope I could help you and I hope it will be implemented in the BSB tweaks in the future. I would advise to combine all this settings (P2Z, rotation and VolumeOverlay) cause it's easier to add an application once and than tick what u want to have.
