[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
I am very surprised that you find it easier to do things on the 3gs. Ive never had an iphone so please clarify whatever I misrepresent, my surprise is based on the ease with which actions are accomplished on the N1. Here are the first actions that come to mind that are done on the N1 that admittedly I wouldnt know if are easier on the 3gs, I just dont know how its possible:

When I wake my phone it takes the press of one button to call my wife (or whomever ive set up a shortcut for)

I press 'voice search' then i say "directions to target" and the phone launches turn-by-turn directions to the nearest target

A text pops up on my screen, i press "reply", then i press the microphone button, i say the text, then i press send. The voice to text is astonishingly accurate

On my desktop is the google search bar, i can press the microphone button attached to it and whatever i say it immediately googles. The search is the result of the pressing of one button

RECAP

So to call someone its the touch of a single icon, and if i dont have a shortcut for them i press the voice search button, then say "call john smith, mobile phone". So whether i have a shortcut or not, calling someone literally takes the pressing of just a single icon

Pressing the voice search button also allows me to speak the directions i want, i can say the name of a business or even an entire address and immediately get gps turn-by-turn directions

When I receive a text i can speak the reply and press send. To initiate a text message i can click the contact or a shortcut and speak the message.

The real impressive part of this is how accurate the voice recognition is, its accurate at least 90% of the time for me.

And doing a basic google search requires one button and the recognition of my voice which the N1 somehow manages to excel at

The point of this isnt to be argumentative Im just so impressed with the ease with which I can complete actions on the N1, im entirely curious as to how these same basic, essential functions can be performed faster and easier on the 3gs

thanks

Just out of curiosity. Stock vs stock, what does the iPhone 3Gs do that the Nexus One doesn't?
[Nexus One General] human_error:
100% positive, i'm in the UK and know for a fact my phone (a nexus one) can use any 3G in the UK - and since the EU has forced standardisation for carriers in europe to allow easy roaming it will work anywhere in europe on 3g.

I don't live in the US so I just checked out the only american store I knew of:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_re=16gb_micro_sdhc-_-20-171-386-_-Product

$49.99 with free shipping, sounds like a good deal to me.

this one is better: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820183245

its class 6 too!
[Nexus One General] kuyamon:
I would think that if someone really wanted a true, productive smartphone, then Android, WinMo, Symbian, and RIM would be the way to go. Widgets pretty much put Android above the iPhone in my book. I never owned an iPhone (did have an iPod Touch). It's a lot easier to get your email, messages, weather, calendar/agenda just by using the right widgets on the homescreen. Why should I have to open a different app and flip back to the homescreen to get all that information on the iPhone, when Android lets you do it in a glance. Check out FlyScreen which doesn't even require you to unlock your phone to get all your information.

I like customization in my phone, hence why I went to a G1 and eventually the Nexus One. I actually like having a background picture and widgets on my homescreen, rather than deciding where I want to put a bunch of squares on a black background. To me, the iPhone is just a status icon with a bunch of market hype behind it. The Nexus One and Android phones in general are for people who actually want a phone that caters to their taste.

This is my opinion on stock Android vs. stock iPhone OS. As for Jailbroken iPhone vs. rooted Android OS, I have no experience with a Jailbroken iPhone.

16GB, class 6, $39.99. Don't know the brand though. If that's a problem...

Sandisk 16GB CL2 - $41

Note to customers :P:

Nexus One works all over Europe.

16Gb MicroSD can be had for less than 50$ in most online stores (newegg, amazon).

:confused:really??? lol get that iphone trash out of here nexus has a better screen is faster only thing iphone has is the app market and and the name the nexus can do everything the iphone can specially thanks to this market thats like saying accord or beamer no contest....
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
I had a G1 before I ever used an iPhone, but I've always liked Apple and the concept. I was really just shocked to find that it wasn't able to run multiple apps / apps in the background. I remember playing a game, and then going to look something up in the browser, and trying to return to the game only to find I had simply quit.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sabwafare2001:
Bought a Touch Diamond 2 through I trade. It does not have Touch Flo installed however on boot up it displays windows 6.1 and looks like an older version of windows when on the normal screen(desktop). How can I tell if this is an authentic version. It does not have a front camera, has a 3.2" screen, wifi, and uses a single sim card. Not sure if the camera is 5MP, although it says it on the battery cover. I know other copy phones don't have wifi and have dual sims. Also, when I connect it to update the ROm to Win 6.5, it gives a USB connection error, however my Tilt 2 does the same also. So that my not be an indication it is a fake. The HTC labels are in all the right places. I have done my research online of how fakes look, however they look very similar to authentic ones and even have Touch Flo installed. Your help would be appreciated. Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] HTC Touch Freak:
Pictures would help here. Positive there is no front camera?

Trying going to settings, Home Settings, and seeing if there is TouchFlo in the Items tab. If there is select it.

Also check and see if it is running windows. Setting>System>About

Hi there,

I'm using S2U2 and the Rhodium dialer on my Diamond. However, I've found that everytime I unlock the phone, it always defaults to the Rhodium dialer page.

Is there any way to stop this?

(didn't have this issue with the original HTC dialer)

If it's a WM app it should work without problem but probably it won't fill the whole screen. Also if the app requires buttons it might not be fully functional.

[General Questions and Answers] RJ45:
Alright. For the longest time, my phones (Samsung Jack, Raph and now Blackstone) give me a time stamp on all my incoming SMS' that are exactly one hour behind my actual time. I know it's a network issue because my Samsung Jack was branded and was running my providers ROM. This issue ONLY happens with 3G, if I'm on Edge or GSM then the time stamps are correct.

So my question is, is there anyway (registry, cab, app, etc.) that I can force the SMS time stamps to be whatever time it is currently on my phone/system time instead of using my providers' server time?

Thanks

[Imagio General] wanablikhm:
My 1st Imagio had no problem with battery, but the "end" key broke so I had a replacement sent. The replacement had nicks on screen and major battery drain, with overnight charge, by 3:00pm I had 5% left. So I sent for 2nd replacement. Same problem with the battery, fully drained by midday. Frustrated, I went to Verizon and requested replacement battery. All seemed well at first. Then, the new battery began to drain. I started eliminating programs running and now, at 10:00pm, I still have 72%, I talked, texted, sent pic mssg, got email, updated weather...etc. This is what I changed.

I turned the phone to CDMA only.

I changed input back to default HTC qwerty (I had sip change to swype)

I set email to check once a day, but I hit send/receive periodically

I set weather to check once a day.

Sorry, but I also uninstalled "codyppc performance booster"

I reinabled Auto Divice lock. (this seemed to help save battery by locking)

I am running spb mobile shell 3.5 and WM 6.5 interface. Whenever I run the HTC Touchflo3D it seems to drain more battery, along with suck up memory.

I check running applications often, reset a couple times a day. I am having an issue with my spb time alarm going off in the morning though. I will try something tonight to eliminate that as the culprit. Overall, I think anything set to run regularly will drain the battery. With these fixes, now I LOVE THIS PHONE. I have all my programs on it, lots of program and storage memory left, (more than I had out of the box) tweaked just the way I like. Hope this helps someone.
[Imagio General] wanablikhm:
Did anyone find this helpful???

Just wondering if I had isolated issues or if anyone else tried and got results... :)
[Imagio General] Toysrme257th:
i posted about it. the battery life can be fairly attrocious for several reasons. Mainly OEM settings & Poorly stored batteries.

With some fairly medium use (google maps, few camera shots a day. Maybe 20-30 minutes worth of streamed video via CorePlayer, or a hacked HAVA program) i still have some battery life the next morning. (Not a day and a half worth, but enough to make it from one morning till the next).

My first battery was trash, but my second has been perfectly fine. Unfortunately doing everything you've already said. Forcing CDMA only & installing no-push internet cab was the biggest help. (Left email & weather on update every 30min)

The idle time for me (overnight with no charge) seems to be better not running TF3D also. If I know Itll be awhile before I can charge it's the first thing that get's disabled. I love TF3D, but SBP shell is nice also.

Eh... My regular useage will typically last around 24-36 hours before the phone wont cut on anymore. Good enough for me I guess. Mostly depends on how much I voice call during the day. (lotta test/mms)

Anywho. Long post for telling you that I dont know what else you can do. At some point it'll boil downt o being a smartphone & while in use it'll devour it's battery???
[Imagio General] Toysrme257th:
Actually... I didn't see you had installed no-push internet. You need to if you haven't. When you open a data connection many times it wont close by itself. So you can set your email, weather, etc to check every day & after it cheks it. Itll stay on all day. :\
[Imagio General] wanablikhm:
No Push Internet

Thanks for the feedback. I do have no push internet also. In addition to previous post, I have tried to run Facebook and the battery drained in a couple of hours. I love the phone though. I may buy the extended battery... then it will last 4 hours instead of 2???? :)
[Imagio General] bboyle:
WIth my first Imagio I ran push email and TF3D. I had no battery issues to speak of. After a full day I would be at 30-40%. Memory was an issue though and then the end key broke.

With my replacement I tried SPB MS 3.5 and had outrageous battery drain, 4 hours off the charger and I was down to 25%. WHen I remove SPB I am back to what I will call acceptable battery performance. I finally turned off TF3D and got a couple of widgets for the plain jane today screen. I can live with the battery life and I am not resetting 1 or 2 times a day to revover memory.

Cant wait for the unlock and custom roms!!

It was released 1/20/10, I think it has stuff that makes me not be able to do so.

With this information can someone direct me to an appropriate SPL, I already tried "ROM v2.53.707.2 (Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010) - MD5 : F9674D19BE5F949D0D9DC99714D210E3" It said "invalid device" "update fail"

Help im a newb.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dave778:
u need to get Amon Recovery running on the phone before u can update to the 1.33.2010 ENG SPL. Theres afew diff ways of doing this.

(1)I did it by installing the android devvelopment kit (note u need to install java then update the kit), after setting it up then install windows usb drivers for Androidso that your computer detects the phone as an adb device (not a storage device) then using Dos CMD prompt type "fastboot boot recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2H.img" while in fastboot mode (which u need to download). your phone will not have the amon recovery installed on the phone at this time but it will boot from your PC through to your phone. Kinda neat. use that recovery to flash the 2010 SPL. Once 2010 spl is flashed u r good as gold to flash any new custom recovery and or rom.

(2) If u don't understand all of this try relentless rooter which can be downloaded from XDA here

(3) youtube guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8BZYEBsSws

Try #3 to some point although u have to change few files because he has a 32B board and u have a 32A.

First decide on a method then ask afew more questions. Help will be just around the corner here

relentless rooter

When i first started using this program it gave me a lot of DOS file not found errors clicking on the buttons so then I took the entire tools folder and lumped it into the relentless rooter program which was calling for like c:/rooter and c:/rooter/root respectively.

I have usb drivers button fine, usb device shows device attached, root files pushes files over to my SDCARD, fastboot seems to be my problem i click it and it says "waiting for device" and just sits.. ugh.. help?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] thebluecoat:
We should stick together on this one since we are both having the same issue man! I also have the same problem! When I tried other SPL's to downgrade after no luck with one with a higher number than the one installed I get errors like "invalid id" etc...

I really feel as though all of these SPL's won't apply to us since we have 32A boards on "old radios" as I have read so far.

I am not even able to do the "one-click" root because I follow videos/tutorials to a T and mine always says "backup failed" and the top is always greyed out without me able to click it. Even if i touch to the right of the bottom button and get the top button to light up it still says backup failed or flash failed. It's not happening. I wish we had some attention on this.

I rooted the G1 EASILY i'm quite capable of doing this but im getting errors everywhere like a shot up R2D2

I had issues using the one touch root on my Rogers htc magic that i got about a month ago. It kept saying backup failed so i tried the older version of the one touch root software. It again said backup failed so i kinda poked around at my phone and and rebooted it then tried it again and it managed to backup everything. So i would keep poking with the one touch root and try one of the older versions.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
You guys need to understand that this device is a 32A Magic.

The radio version can be 3.22 or 2.22, but it's still 32A.

You will need to goldcard this phone if you expect any results. If you are 100% sure that the goldcard method has failed, then you have to wait until the phone is rooted by other means.

(I have a 32A Magic that I have installed the Fender Edition 2.22 radio onto. I was able to flash the Fender Edition ROM with no issues. That leads me to believe that the Fender Edition MyTouch is the very first 32A Magic shipped with a 1.6 Donut OS)

I do not own a Fender MyTouch, so I am by no means an expert, but I want to help steer your discussions towards a proper solution for rooting the phone. (If anyone wants to send me a Fender MyTouch, go ahead :) )
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] thebluecoat:
I tried creating a goldcard, I have the 16gb sandisk, 4gb sandisk, and a 2gb kingston.

I tried all of the cards following these methods, but when I insert it into the phone it says "damaged sd card" I have to format and try again or what?

I used the kingston solely because a person had luck with it. I got my goldcard.img made 2 zeros in the CID, did offsets correctly pasted and saved. what am I doing wrong?

What I have been doing is using the mytouch, mounting the sd card, and doing it like that since I do not have an SDcard reader on my desktop computer, but i dont think that would mess anything up. get back to me, I want to try goldcard since you had luck with it and the fedner, please!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
Nope.. your doing it correctly. I have had the same results. tried 2 8gb, a 4gb, a 2gb and the 16gb it came with.. a no go on any of them for a gold card. guess Ill just have to live with it till somethign else comes along and figures it out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] donjo9:
experience from the forum shows that most people go wrong on this step:

16) Install and launch HxD Hex Editor program

17) Go to Extra tab > Open Disk. Under Physical disk, select Removable Disk (Must be your SD card), uncheck “Open as Readonly), click OK.

people seems to be selecting "Logical Disk" (i think thats the other option, please corect me if im wrong) instead of "Physical Disk", there for getting the "damaged sd card" error
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
Nope.. There is open.. Open Disk and open disk image. I was up till 3am trying each sd card over and over with same results. But now knowing that the SPL is hiher then the downgragables I belive we are just going to have to wait till these are out more. Unfourtunatly, it being a limited edition... we may be screwed lol. Ive got another pc and 2 last sd cards to try today. lol Ive even got a 32mb one... and if that one is the only one that takes the hex edit ill be so mad lol cause it wont fit the nbh file.

EDIT- IM SUCH A DUMBASS lol.. I see what you meant by logical and physical now. I had been clicking logical disk allllll night and always having to reformat the card. Then.. since it was so late when I was doing this, Ikept using the same goldcard.img for all the sd cards lol. So I tried again today, made the gol card correctly and it still was found by the PC... But it stlll gives device error as before. Ill go through getting the cid # from the other cards later when im bored.

My main problems with now not wanting to root this phone...

1. The music player will be gone.. it is nice.

2. 2.0/2.1 is supposed to be offcialy released for it within the next few weeks according to 2 of the Tmobile guys I alked to, one being the regional manager.

If anyone figures it out im all for trying to again.... But for now Ill learn to live with my vanilla dounut. Mmmmm Vanilla Doughnuts

lol

But I cant ever give up on anythign like this so I give it about 5min before im bored enough to start again.

I work for t-mo as I said, I have not heard about any new OS plans for fender edition mytouch / mytouch 3g.

Im 100% positive that im creating goldcard correctly, I have 3 unique CID's that I reverse, replace with two zeros, use the correct image, open and uncheck read only on the removable disk, open goldcard, copy offset 00-0017 (however many zeros it said, copy paste save, close) plug back in, "you need to format this card" -windows "damaged sd card" -mytouch.
