[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmhecker:
I hope this is the right section to ask this, so here goes:

I have Handcent SMS installed on my G1 running Eclair. When running Cupcake, I easily disabled the built in messaging notifications so that I did not get that 'white envelope' in the notification bar. But, for some reason, in Eclair, when I disable notifications in the default messaing app, I am still getting the white envelope in the notification bar that says I have unread messages...I have that in addition to the Handcent icon...

Does anyone have any idea how to completely disable the notification for messaging in Eclair?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
You can uninstall/delete the messaging apk.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmhecker:
I always wondered if that could be done...didnt know if removing that would remove the SMS capabilities of the phone (IE: if Handcent relied on it for API calls or something)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
I wouldn't remove the Messaging app, some people have had problems. As in, no text messages AT ALL. The sms replacements rely on the messaging app for the actualt texts, they just read them from there
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
Don't think so because I used to just use handcent w/o the default messaging app when I was running a hero rom a while back and never heard anyone complain about me not getting their messages.

Worst case, just push the original back.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmhecker:
So I was having stability issues with Ecliar, and dropped down to Cupcake for a while until the Eclair dust settles and a few more stable releases are made. But, I am experiencing the same problems now, as I was with Eclair.

I installed Handcent, as I prefer it over the stock SMS/MMS application. In the default Messaging application, I have disabled everything regarding notifications, and I am still receiving the white envelope in the notification bar alongside the Handcent icon, indicating a new message. The only way for me to rid myself of the white envelope is to open the notification bar, and press the Clear button.

Can anyone point out what I may be missing? That while envelope is really irritating, heh.

Pet parrot live wallpaper, better if can download toys and see the parrot plays them.

[Nexus One General] KiD0M4N:
Hi guys,

I am sure you all know about geohot (http://iphonejtag.blogspot.com/)

I am sure we there was a reliable/safe way to go back to S=ON and a locked bootloader state + warranty, the modding community and thus, the Android community indirectly, would expand like never before. That's one of the reasons behind the huge ass success of the iPhone jailbreak community. Infact, we have got it relatively easy when we compare it to the amount of work it takes them (with every iPhone OS release) to defeat's Apple protection and 'JB' the devise. Since all it takes is a restore to stock F/W to erase all signs of any 'software' jailbreak, they do not loose 'hardware' warranty by just running a custom program on the phone.

I have contacted George over email and requested him to look at the problem we are facing. He has agreed to look into it if we can give him a Nexus One. I mean, a collective $530 is a very small price to pay when it comes to restoring hardware warranty to a army of phones which were only rooted to install more capable programs :)

What do you guys think? Should we collect donations and send a phone over to George Hotz? There is no guarantee that we will get a solution... but if anyone can approach it from a hardware perspective... it is him.

Do let me know your thoughts... (and please don't mind the various grammatical mistakes... I just woke up and saw Geohot's email... hence posted this asap.)

Regards,

KiD0M4N
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
I dont think this is a good idea. Geohot is a great iphone dev but he has no experience whatsoever on android or HTC bootloaders. There are much better devs for this type of work.
[Nexus One General] nephron:
+1

Just give it some time bro. I bet you someone will find a way. If there is an option to unlock your bootloader through a ui, i dont think it will be THAT hard to manipulate that to relock your bootloader. I mean, there are devs like NCommander that have tackled much harder projects such as reverse engineering the eclair camera drivers for the G1/MT3G.
[Nexus One General] KiD0M4N:
Well that guy is also responsible for the virgin iPhone unlock(from OS 1.0 days.) But care to suggest some other names?
[Nexus One General] KiD0M4N:
I am all for giving it time, we need to do something to get the attention of them brainies.

Its kinda sad though... HTC did a wonderful job making it easy to root the devise, but them fugged it all up by a all or nothing warranty statement. It would be fine if they would apply it for obvious mis use cases, but such a blanket statement only hurts the community.

And honestly speaking, it it wasn't for the XDA community, i would not have even thought of getting the Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] momohammed20:
i think if geohot gets an android device he would probably be able to help us re-lock the boot loader, and maybe even more things we did not know about android.
[Nexus One General] JHaste:

[Nexus One General] dextroz:
Appreciate your responses in advance guys.

I am new to Android (Nexus One being my first) from a long line of rooted Nokia phones (N73, N86, N81, N95, E61, E71, 5800, E75 and now sick of those products and their manufacturer).

Anyways, my single biggest gripe with the Nexus One is poor use of the trackball notification. The frequency is too low to grab my attention (for emails, IMs, SMS and missed calls) and the color white does not stand out in daylight.

Reading few threads it looks like one has to root the device to get colored lights and custom frequency.

Looking around, it seems there are certain disadvantages which may break or make the deal to root. If someone can validate/substantiate them for me, that would make my decision easier.

1. Lose OTA updates

2. Lose Google Talk/IM application

3. Lose Google Maps application

4. Cannot go back to original stock ROM build (restore to factory virgin with OTA)

5. Cannot go back to 'locked' boot-loader to restore warranty

Are there any other things I should be aware of beforehand in terms of points of no return? Nokias could always be flashed back to original like nothing ever happened.

Thanks again guys!
[Nexus One General] Accused187:
1. Mostly Yes (could be ROM dependent)

2. Mostly No (could be ROM dependent)

3. Mostly No (could be ROM dependent)

4. Yes, you can go back to the original ROM for OTA

5. Not yet, but it's being looked into

Keep in mind though that no full ROMs have released for Nexus, I'm basing 1, 2, & 3 on Dream/Magic ROMs.
[Nexus One General] DarkLord7854:
The G1/MT3G phones running Cyanogen's ROMs all have the default Google Apps (Google Talk, maps, etc).. it really depends on the ROM, but you can always redownload those apps through the market anyways.
[Nexus One General] dextroz:
So when I root the Nexus One to get pocket torch and custom trackball colors notifications and blink rates - am I installing a custom ROM at that point for it as well - or just the app with root privileges?
[Nexus One General] DarkLord7854:
You're just rooting your phone, nothing more, it's like creating an Administrator account on Windows if you want to put it really simply.
[Nexus One General] dextroz:
Thanks guys this is reassuring.
[Nexus One General] Ssantos6981:
I've got my nexus rooted and I've got maps & navi working great. Google talk is NP. I don't really worry about the warranty much, if the phone gives me too many problems I can always "lose" the phone. Of course I have to pay, but I love this phone.
[Nexus One General] iVisionX01:
Would Cyanogen's Addon stop me from getting OTA updates?
[Nexus One General] dextroz:
So i'm curious why did you root your phone? What applications are you running right now that you could not run before?
[Nexus One General] flomid:
maybe a noob question, but as for the loss of OTA updates, if you simply root and do not load a custom rom couldn't you potentially still receive the updates? i had a sprint hero before switching to the N1 and the dealbreaker for me to root was the wifi tether app. it came in handy a lot, and i was under the impression that i would still be able to receive ota updates, is that not the case with the N1?
[Nexus One General] drob77777:
reasons for root

Some good reasons to root are:

Super user apps (tether etc., trackball, etc.)

Overclock phone

Custom rom/addon support

And themes once u have a custom rom

And to help u choose. I had the g1 for 5 months as stock and finally took the plunge to root and use cyanogens rom and i have never looked back. There are huge advantages to rooting. I just wish i would have sooner.

Congratulations for this topic, exactly the one I was looking for...

My device is a HTC Touch HD with WM6.5 Duttys Holy Graal ROM.

My PC is running Win7 x64 Pro.

BUT, I have a problem with Settings => system=> External GPS Menu > GPS Hardware port !

Initial value for COM port is (none) and, if I change it (COM3 for example), and then close and reopen the External GPS menu, it always come back to (none) and I'm not able to save my hardware port settings.

I don't have this problem for the 2 other tab ('GPS program port' and 'manage GPS automatically), where my settings are saved correctly.

I tried to change the registry value, following the microsoft link "GPS Intermediate Driver GPS Hardware Registry Settings" (sorry I'm not allowed to post direct URL on xda for now), but I was not able to find the appropriate keys.

They don't seem to exist !

Can you help me?
[Networking] costa.simoes:
The same problem.

Solved it like this:

- set on pc com port to 9 and ip to 0.0.0.0

- started on pocket google maps a long with gps2blue outside so google maps could lock the satelites

- just after locking GPS I pulse the created COM on PC

- and started working

Hope it helps...

Hello all,

i have had root for a while now using cyanogens 4.2.12.2 with the ram hack, ok the thing im confused with is i have 2 partittions fat32 and ext3 for the a2sd but whenever i install a app it installs to internal memory, do i need linux swap aswell ?

Thanks Alot Ryan​
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
What size is your ext3? And by installs to internal memory, do you mean it goes down a bit for each install, or does it go down the total app size? Even with A2SD you still use up a little internal memory. As well, if you run out of space on the ext3, it will install to the internal memory. It should work just fine out of the box with no need to do anything crazy on your part.
