I am using this car dock until the real Nexus One docks are ready. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DQQBVW...e=asn&creative=380341&creativeASIN=B001DQQBVW

If you are looking for a good bluetooth stereo for your nexus that works really well. Try this one. http://signature.crutchfield.com/s_105KDA805/JVC-Arsenal-KD-A805.html?search=JVC+KDA805&ssi=0

Once you sync your stereo with your phone the first time. You can just leave your phone in your pocket if you want, you can answer phone calls from your stereo, or even make them from your stereo if you want, you can listen to music from your phone on the stereo by just using the stereo's remote. With you phone still in your pocket.

If a person doesnt want to replace their stereo and just want's to use a fm transmitter. Get the motorola t505 I used it for 3 months it does work. Hands free driving syncs with any stereo any car. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875982214&Tpk=motoraloa t505
[Nexus One Accessories] karnovaran:
The ProClip holders are quite nice, but I think the Omnia II might be a better fit:

Nexus One: 119 x 59.8 x 11.5

Omnia II: 118 x 59.6 x 12.3

Omnia i8910: 123 x 58 x 12.9

The OmniaII's width is just .2mm thinner than the Nexus and thickness is only .8 thicker.
[Nexus One Accessories] jeux_1:
just ordered the omnia II I will report once received.

BEST Phone holder.. BY FAR

bought this to use with my G1 back when the Sprint Hero Nav app was dumped.. used it many times and works excellent with the Nexus One as well ... it rotates landscape and it unclips to use in the dash vent .. i originally wanted it because it doesnt interfere with the touchscreen and its low profile wont let it vibrate too much..and it has a good grasp on the phone without damage (i run a track setup on my suspension with competition spring rates and coilovers.. along with solid engine mounts)
[Nexus One Accessories] dwang:
Any pictures? I couldn't find any online besides that amazon one. How about some with the n1 attached and also attached to a car vent?
[Nexus One Accessories] dwang:
looks good thanks!
[Nexus One Accessories] Tortri:
Though I did order a car mount, i just spotting this one and like the fact it's made for the nexus one.. not sure if i'm going to get it or not and return the one i just ordered.

I have an HTC Dream (G1) and I'm moving from Phoenix to Vancouver. I'm currently using T-Mobile and barely using any minutes, but using the internet a lot, streaming music, etc.

I was wondering if anybody knew what providers I have to chose from and who's going to be the cheapest?

Any suggestions would be appreciated - I'm not familiar with the Mobile scene up there.

Also, is anybody going to offer the Droid - or a comparable Android device?
[Imagio General] yatman60:
Has anyone had the problem where the alarm on the alarm clock rings a single time and them stops ringing?

I have the checkbox in the control panel checked for repeat sound yet it seems to have started only ringing once (which is really annoying if you're a heavy sleeper).

Any help would be appreciated.
[Imagio General] Osteo:
Yeah, I have that too. The only thing I've found it to be sure your reminders are on and it will remind you in a few minutes that you missed your alarm. Unfortunately the reminder tone will play at the end of your alarm tone as well so I picked a reminder that sounds OK with my alarm....

Hopefully someone will have a better solution.

p.s. I've noted that if attached to external power the alarm will repeat but if not, it won't. Seems it sleeps right after the alarm if alarm sounds when screen is locked and won't wake to continue the alarm.....
[Imagio General] yatman60:
I suspected it was a power saving method but it's a pretty lousy method if it breaks the primary usage.

I decided to install a 3rd party alarm clock called Klaxon. It's free and it works great.

I upgraded to the leaked T-Mobile 6.5 ROM. However there is a mjor issue with the start menu.

Is it possible to customize this abomination? (Sorry for the language). My recently installed applications are several screens below, while tons of garbage are in the first page.

If it's not possible to reorder items here, is it possible to return to old 6.1 start menu? (I remember reading something about this in the forum, but could not find it in search).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
I'm running a custom rom, so I can't guarantee, but...

A

long

press on an icon makes it drag-able so you can drag it up or down the screen to wheverever in the "honeycomb" you want it. Is that what you're looking for?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] IMissPalmOS:
With the OP's ROM, a long press will bring up the "Move to Top" or "Move Down" menu, absurd as it is...

Oh...yeah. I've experienced that version before. Yes, almost useless.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] spawnpr:
same situation here with stock Tilt 2, I cant find an easy way to organize the start menu. "Move to top" will take forever, also when you install or upgrade an app it will go the the end again.

Any solution?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper139:
Maybe setting is wrong

Hi,

take a look at your settings. In the connection settings it might be set to the faster active sync mode which does not work most of the time.

If it is already disable I have no clue ;)

I just got a new gsm hero, and im currently on T-Mobile. When i try to log into Google, it never lets me, what do i need to do in order to recieve data from T-Mobile?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] cymru:
Everyone on T-Mobile seems to have this problem initially. The trick is factory resetting (hard reset) and then it should work.

for some reason every time i try a new rom i just end up with the basic android desktop and icons and all the rom customising has vanished apart from the extra apps.

i`ve tried this with a few various roms with the same effect, and i am wipeing the data/factory reset from the recovery menu before i flash.

any ideas whats causing this and is there another or more thorough way to wipe the phone before i flash a new rom ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I'm a bit confused here! You say you are losing all your ROM customizations when you flash a new ROM, but you also say you are wiping before flashing, and this is *exactly* what I'd expect if you wipe every time!

[HD2 Accessories] xedahh:
I still miss a stylus sometimes so this comes as good news :)

Engadget has the story: http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/15/official-htc-capacitive-stylus-for-hd2-now-shipping/

Finally !

Niiice :)
[HD2 Accessories] kjt57:
Look on Ebay for "Dagi" or go to Dagi`s web site (they make them for HTC) , they are a lot cheaper and exactly the same, also available in different sizes and colours.

Ordered mine direct and took 7 days to arrive, paid an extra 2hk dollars and had my name engraved on it.:D

( I have one for sale on Ebay £7 inc p&p to UK)
[HD2 Accessories] Shasarak:
No they aren't. Various websites have used photos of the Dagi stylus when talking about the HTC one, but always with the magic words "for display purposes only" - in other words, it's not actually a picture of the HTC product, just a place-holder.
[HD2 Accessories] Som30ne:
Roumor has it that the official HTC stylus is indeed a re-branded DAGi stylus.

I guess we'll have to waid for the actual photo on some retailer (let's say clove) to see - but - mentioning "clove" - for a long long time, thay had a place holder picture without any picture, and a few days ago, thay too, put up a DAGi-like stylus image, which makes me go towards the conclusion that the patented htc tip-point stylus is not going to show up any time soon.
[HD2 Accessories] kjt57:
If you look at htcaccessorystore.com they show a Dagi branded as HTC

http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=193951
[HD2 Accessories] amitambika:
But isnt the HTC stylus with a curved tip and the Dagi stylus with a flat oval tip
[HD2 Accessories] fards:
The HTc branded one looks like it has a slightly smaller head than the Dagi one, or maybe the barrel is a bit bigger..
[HD2 Accessories] bumskee:
so did anyone get the official HTC stylus yet? and can anyone confirm if it's just the dagi rebadged stylus?
[HD2 Accessories] young blade:
I have grown used to not having a stylus... so I dont think I'll need one..:)

How accurate will it be with the stylus? Good enough for drawing or handwriting?
[HD2 Accessories] ebeetlebum:
Anyone tried the stylus? Does it work?
[HD2 Accessories] djet:
I guess there are no reviews as nobody currently has it.
[HD2 Accessories] denizenx:
was surfing taobao for a deal on the dagi's...

one buyer said that usage is not as swift as the demo video... perhaps there's a learning curve to place the tip.

I also realised that the screen will only respond to a minimal surface area of nearly 1 cm across.

I've tried desserts spoons which touch very well (played a game of freecell with it) but of course obscure the view :D
[HD2 Accessories] PE5MN:
I have just received the official “HTC Capacitive Stylus STC400”…

I tested with my touch HD2 but its NOT working at all!

I suggest: don’t buy this thing… it’s a waist of money!!!

I send it back to HTC!.... :mad:
[HD2 Accessories] apap:
That does not sound promising. I was really hoping that this would let me scribble notes.
[HD2 Accessories] djet:

[HD2 Accessories] Wevenhuis:
Can the HTC stylus only be purchased in the UK?

Can the failure of the htc stylus be demoed?
[HD2 Accessories] m0j0j0j0123:
I just grabbed a 'exspecct touch pen' from Maplins for £4.99, which was really meant for iPhoney stuff, I figured, ah, it will work ok, oh my god, its horrible. I was hoping when reading this, there would be a good one out there, but it seems not. Maybe I should have my finger surgically altered to have a finer nib! :eek:
[HD2 Accessories] Audio Oblivion:
i received my official HTC c400 stylus today.

I am highly dissapointed.

It works fine but its too big and cumbersome to use.

Much faster and even more accurate with my finger.

Maybe with more usage it will get better but i seriously wont be using it again.

also... it IS a rebadged Dagi stylus.
[HD2 Accessories] woaloo:
If you sell it, think about me.... ;-)

I'd like to try.

I've bought a QDOS for IPh*** and it's a pity...
[HD2 Accessories] pa49:
I bought one of these as well and yes it's bad!

I had a friend try it on his iphone and it's even worse!

Main problem is too much friction that means drag and drop is impossible.

However, it works brilliantly on my Touch Diamond 2 because the screen surface is totaly different (with screen protector) and has far less resistance.

Will I keep it? No it's going back to Maplin.

I just wondered if it would work with HD2 with a screen protector applied.
[HD2 Accessories] A|ex:
Received mine today in hope that i could avoid the random ghost typing screen and well i was disappointed, this stylus has to be the most uncomfortable one known to man and its hard to use. I should have just saved myself a lot of hassle and got a cheaper one of ebay
[HD2 Accessories] wolfyx:
I was thinking about buying one but after reading this I'm staying well clear of this.

[HD2 Accessories] Rahonavis:
Hi, I've tried Pogo Sketch on my HD2 with screen protector, and it doesn't work. When you try to draw it leaves dots, rather then lines. I tested it on an iPhone (without a screen protector) and it worked fine.

Anybody tested Dagi on a HD2 over a screen protector?
[HD2 Accessories] wolfee:
Honestly, Im not too worried about drawing. Its pushing the buttons I cant get down. Texting is a real pain in the butt for me with this phone.. If a stylus will only text, its better than using my fingers.
[HD2 Accessories] Rahonavis:
Well, there are several different keyboards from which to choose. Personally I don't find it difficult to text.. it's a breeze comparing to Omnia i900 (my previous phone). And of course I don't text a lot. I'm rather lazy and I call everyone.. :o
[HD2 Accessories] 17Hz:
The capacitive screen is pants. Best thing I have found so far to use as a stylus is a carrot.
[HD2 Accessories] johnboatcat:
Dagi = Your elbow would work better.

Took multiple taps for everything. Capacitance bead fell off in a week. Now makes a good ear scratcher. Learned to use my little finger on those little tiny check boxes. Works great. There must be something that keeps the screen from reacting if the object (finger) is large and the target small. The "Pinky" stylus works. Try it.
[HD2 Accessories] ikoiko:
I bought a three pack of these pens they dont work. Its a rubber ball on the end of a short pen. You have to press very hard in order for it to work. You can not write with it, all it is good for is the little check boxes or if you are running a program that is to small to touch with your finger. For those of you that are having trouble typing just use the XT9 feature on the keyboard. I have fat fingers and cant type to begin with but with the XT9 feature turned on all the words you type are auto corrected. Try it for a little while I love it.
[HD2 Accessories] llcooljazz:
If you are going to buy the stylus (despite the reviews) might as well by the Dagi - exactly the same, but at a lower price.
[HD2 Accessories] Phenomenon:
Damn, almost 20 dollars for a stylus? crazy.
[HD2 Accessories] :
As I slipped my phone into my trouser pocket I thought of something better than my elbow!

I will go and practice.....

Opens up the possibilty to send texts "under the table". Look, no hands!

Seriously though, if it's the transcriber you're trying to use then just use your finger - It works very well with minimal practice and is much better than the HTC stylus for handwriting on the screen.

The stylus can be useful to operate the on-screen keyboard and, for example, the little up/down arrows on select boxes, but for writing, don't bother.

Hope that's helpful!

[Touch CDMA General] thefish123:
After running Android 1.6 on my Vogue for a few weeks I am going back to Windows Mobile for now. I want to get some real-world usage experience with both.

After a few weeks with Android there are some things that drive me bonkers about it. Like when I press the red hang-up button repeatedly several times (as I am apt to do just to make sure the call is good and ended) the thing turns off. Drives me nuts. I realized this is mapped to “sleep” mode under the current Vogue/Android builds but it’s a huge usability issue for me. Power button should be power. Period.

And I just want to compare real life usage to real life usage going back and forth on these two platform so I can be somewhat objective about comparing them. So I am going back to a WM 6.5x build for now. It’s not like these choices (Android vs. WM) have to be long-term anyway :-)

[Touch CDMA General] ss0mohit:
simple answer:

1) download 2.31 coke unlocker and run the exe.

2) download the rom of your choice. MAKE SURE ITS GPS SUPPORTED OTHERWISE IT WILL BE HELL TO GET OUT OF IT.

and your good to go.
[Touch CDMA General] zbubblez:
yup i got it it. loving winmo 6.5 =]
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
if you want a real-world usage experience with both you would have to actually use a "real"(a device that was built to run android) android device. the little quirks you mentioned dont happed on real android phones. the vogue as you and everybody knows, wasnt meant to run android. and the fact that the developers made it possible is amazing.

im glad you at least gave android a run, and hope to see you back as development progresses.

[Touch CDMA General] szman22:
I am curious how well WM 6.5 runs on the Vogue? How does it compare to Android? I've been running half a dozen android versions, and I like them, but I'm curious to try WM 6.5. A couple basic questions:

1. How stable is 6.5? Is it ready for primetime?

2. Is the hardware supported (bluetooth, gps, etc)?

3. How hard is the flash process? I currently have WM 6.1 and boot android from SD. Any risks?

Thanks for the info!
[Touch CDMA General] thefish123:
If you use NFSFAN’s ROM it is stable, fast and 100% ready for prime time. It really does feel like it is a native Vogue ROM.

All the hardware works. You will have to upgrade your radio to a GPS enabled version before flashing NFSFAN’s ROM to get the GSP but thats true for any GPS functionality on any platform on the Vogue. I recommend the official ROM from Bell for GPS enabling your Vogue (if you haven’t already).

The Fish
[Touch CDMA General] thefish123:
I realize that (about using a “real” Android device). However the support on the Vogue is pretty darn good. After using Android for a few weeks I don’t see a huge superiority over WM. I gotta be honest. Yes, Android is *very* slick and I was (and still am) very impressed. However I just flashed my Vogue to NFSFAN’s latest WM 6.5 ROM and you know what? It’s pretty darn slick too :-)

I am forced to conclude (for now anyway) that they are both really good platforms for mobile devices. But the idea that WM is dying and Android is going to take over the world is overstated to say the least.

Using Android on the Vogue I still had to resort to my stylus plenty of times. This is largely due to the screen size I believe.

In Android I loved the integration with Gmail because I use Google Apps with my own domain name and this was very slick. This also works under WM using Active Sync as if Google was a giant Exchange Server too so it’s a bit of a moot point.

I found that contacts were difficult to find under Android. I find it easier to find the right contact in WM in just a few seconds (this is important for me).

I find the voice search (especially within Google Maps) on the Android to be very nearly indispensible. This is one truly value adding feature I will have trouble giving up going back to WM.

At the same time I wonder why this feature does not exist in the WM version of Google Maps. Frankly it seems like a deliberate oversight on the part of Google. Deliberately making the Android version of Google Maps better the then the WM version to make the Android platform appear superior all around. This is, of course, their prerogative but interestingly enough MS gets dragged into court when they do this sort of thing and Google apparently gets away with it. I wonder how long before Google goes from being everyone’s favorite “underdog” to just another big faceless corporation that everyone loves to hate.

I find the Google Talk app in Android cool although I text message more then I use Google Talk anyway so I am not sure I will miss this too much. Again I wonder why there is no Google Talk app for WM? Again, see my comments above regarding Google Maps.

Now don’t get me wrong. It makes perfectly good sense that Google wants to support their “own” platform more fully then their competitor’s. I understand that and as a capitalist have no trouble with it. However I wonder how Microsoft would be viewed if they deliberately made the “Office for Mac” a second rate product to the Windows version?

This post is much longer then I intended it to be :-)

Best regards,

[Hero CDMA General] rdisanza:
Did you go into settings on the HTC Sync program and check the box to "sync this catagory"? You can also do it for your Calander. Also you can tell the sync program if you wish the pc to overwrite the phone or vise, versa.

The HTC Sync program only works with Windows Outlook, not sure about Outlook Lite or any other such program.
