My wife washed her phone with her pants over the holiday, and I went all over to find a replacement. Not wanting to extend my contract (since I want to get rid of it after its over), I had no choice but to look for an unlock or unsubsidized phone. At least during the holidays in store and online I could find no option with out service and seemed to list the same stock.

Of course, retailers can pull those things during the heavy shopping seasons too.

I sort of doubt Google would change their strategy. If T-mobile can't get Nexus Ones; not sure why Wal-mart. I know Wal-mart is a major chain, but normally doing business with Wal-mart is a major pain.

[Nexus One General] halfsight:
If you have been on your service for a while then the telco will give you the unlock codes, I unlocked several blackberries with t-mo customer service and my girl unlocked her storm through verizon.

I think you just have to be a customer for more that 6 months or something. Just tell them your going out of country.

EDIT:

I just noticed in the actual ad a typo FAIL that says:

[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
From Mashable.com

Update: Walmart says the phone erroneously appeared on the site by mistake. Their statement: “Due to a technical error, this item erroneously was displayed on our site. We’re working with our partner Let’s Talk to have it removed as quickly as possible. We have no plans to carry Nexus One in Walmart stores or online at Walmart.com at this time.”

No comment I guess?

EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed this has been posted.

That's cool no worries.

The flashing via SD has never been 100% workable by that i flash all my devices via SD yet the Excalibur wont, this may be due to SD capacity\compatibility?

Just spend the £2ish on a USB lead as it will make everything so much simpler ;)

[HD2 General] Joaquin Marcide:
Hi, I have an HTC Leo from Vodafone.

Problem: the calendar invoked from the Today screen is the HTC calendar, therefore all the look and feel of the outlook calendar (organization, colors etc) is lost. I did not have this problem with WM 6.1 (HTC Diamond).

1-Is it possible to invoke or to link the Outlook calendar from the Home page of Sense instead of the HTC calendar? The same for appointments, notes and contacts.

2- If it is no possible how can I disable Sense in a Vodafone Leo (I cannot find any place where I can configure the "Today screen"

Many thanks in advance
[HD2 General] alex fung:
Yes, they are just programs with links in your start menu (under outlook folder). You can add them to the quick links of your home page.

I am sure you can. Search this forum for the keywoard today and Titanium. In the worse case, Sense is just a big startup program. I believe if you remove the registry entry then it won't autorun when your phone starts up.

I was given a qtek 2020 phone and it has a Italian language OS.

I don't speak Italian and I am pretty sure it's outdated.

Could anyone of you please send me in the right direction where i can find some information on installing latest OS in English language?

This phone wasn't modded by original owner (my brother in law) so everything on it is original.

Please tell me if pics arent working for you, by the way...

(Taken from my HTCPedia post, I thought that you guys would benefit from this...)

Hello all...I hate the standard Android keyboard, but love HTC's, I've written this guide in other threads but it'll be lost in posts....so here it is in its own location. Please say thanks if you use this.

The HTC_IME.apk to use is here (Rapidshare) Subsequent versions of HTC_IME won't work on non sense ROM.

ADB is here: (Rapidshare)

create a directory on your pc and extract adb.rar and place htc_ime.apk there

open cmd.bat and type:

adb remount
adb install -r HTC_IME.apk

The -r is optional, just ensures it'll install and you won't get install failed.

Reboot the phone

Now hit the menu key ->settings -> language & keyboard -> tick "Touch Input"

hold down menu key until android keyboard appears -> hold the "?123" key on keyboard

select "input method" -> select "touch input" -> et voila, HTC keyboard on non sense ROM

(shown below is KaguDroid 1.1)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] qpop:
Yes I assume so, download update.zip for CKDroid or something similar, and browse to /system/app within the .zip to find "latin_ime.apk", extract to the directory and follow instructions replacing "HTC_IME.apk" with "latin_ime.apk".

I haven't tried ever so do let me know if it works.

[HD2 General] snerkler:
For some reason my googlemail account has disappeared from my phone. I have a notification I have mail, and when I go into mail from the home screen tab the new mail is displayed, but when I press it nothing happens, it won't go to inbox.

If I go into mail via the start up menu my googlemail account isn't there. All I have listed is hotmail, and add new account. If I try to add my googlemail it won't allow me saying I have already set up an account with that name. Where's it gone and how do I get it back?
[HD2 General] snerkler:
Ok, I've fixed it by restoring my phone. It would be nice to know what happened though???
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
Yes, this happens on occasions.

I think the way I fixed it last time was to go >menu>account settings> where you should see the "lost" gmail account. If you then select it and walk through the setup again for that account it sorts itself out.

I'm 90% confident this is how I fixed mine but it was a while back so memory is a bit dim. :)

WB
[HD2 General] snerkler:
Thanks. I went through the setup and that's when it told me I already had an account with that name and couldn't go any further.

I had a new problem this morning. I had all my email accounts there, but when I clicked on them nothing happened, ie I couldn't go to the inbox. A soft reset fixed it, but why am I getting so many glitches?
[HD2 General] clockworxx:
I am having the same sort of problem. My e-mail accounts have disappeared after a soft reset. This is the second time it has happened. Out of interest, what are you running on your device? I would like to see if there is a common theme beyond it being a problem with HTC's software.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
Not a lot, a few registry tweaks, SPB BAckup, memmaid, resco registry editor, phm regedit.
[HD2 General] Jim Coleman:
I got my email settings borked a couple of times now, and I run a standard ROM with very little third party software, and certainly nothing tweaky or email related.

Not sure what triggers it, TBH.

Presumably, you're using the latest HTC official ROM?
[HD2 General] Jim Coleman:
1.66, yes. It happened in 1.48 too.
[HD2 General] johnk1973:
It has happened to me a few times. I think it only happens after a soft reset. I tend to lose my network settings too.
[HD2 General] clockworxx:
These are precisely the same symptoms as my device is suffering. Hell, I could buy a Caithness paper weight for less money and it would do roughly the same job (possibly better).
[HD2 General] gags9999:
My phone is also having the same symptoms - loosing email and network settings randomly. Any cause or solution as yet?
[HD2 General] Agoattamer:
My phone loses it's email settings when I pull the battery. They are still there but the pop and smtp settings disappear so they won't work anymore. Also my router security code is gone too. If I reset with the red button there there is no problem.
[HD2 General] johnk1973:
I was having this problem maybe one a week but since i upgraded to one of the latest custom Roms it hasn't happened since... Must be because of the very latest version of Windows they are using, M$ must of sorted a bug or two..

Use a file explorer and go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs and delete the .lnk ;)

Bad icon located elsewhere

Thanks for the quick help. Unfortunately the Wifi Internet Sharing icon is located elsewhere on my att&t Tilt: TodayScreen\Start\Settings\Connections.

Apparently it was put there by one of the two flavors of the HTC Wifi Router app I tried. I would need to navigate elsewhere or perhaps edit the registry?

Ha. Gotcha.

I don't know...I'm at odds here...

With taxes coming in (I know I'm getting a nice refund)...I am torn between getting a touch pro 2 (Tilt 2, whatever)...and a Leo...

I have a touch hd at this time, and the one thing that really gets me is the lack of TV out, which the TP2 has. A small, insignificant thing to some, but with 2 children and a van, the old Fuze I used to have really came in handy.

But then I look at the Leo, with its huge screen, 1ghz Snapdragon, capability to be upgraded to wm7---but also, no tv out...

Or should I just wait a little longer to see what comes up???

Any ideas???

I guess it depends on what you want in a phone. From the research I did in phones, the TP2 is a great phone. The others are great but are expensive if you buy them outright. You might consider providing more details other than the phones you're trying to choose from. Like what you want in a phone.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] emoh@home:
I have HTC WWE 6.1 rom on my ATT tilt and text regularly, have around 3000+ sms on my tilt.

Yesterday, I received a message from someone and it looked like it came from a different number and it started a new thread. Then I realized there wasn't another thread which have older sms, but then I noticed they are in inbox if I use the non threaded sms (done using kaiser tweak).

Considering (after searching forums) there is a limit on sms in single thread I am continuing with the new thread. However is it possible to have these sms in my inbox even with the sms threading ON.

Any help would appreciate. I need to look back on these sms very frequently and for the same I have to disable threaded sms and then look into the inbox which is very cumbersome.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] G.S.Samuel:
It seen to be a common problem on WM6.x

Don't know exactly what you mean about the new thread and something, I think I have met a situation of similarity.

I got an ASUS P750 and tests it on WM6.1 & WM6.5. Once the number of the sms reach some thousands in a single thread, new sms income will be no longer be reminded and to be shown with the sms threading ON, though it can be found in the inbox while sms threading mode turn off. It seen to be some runtime memory limitation of htmlnote.dll which handle the sms and locate in the XIP of rom.

It bother me a lot, does anyone know about how to figure out?
[Nexus One General] Antiskunk:
I don't think this quite merits a development thread so i'll just post it here.

How bloated is the Android OS?

The number one priority of a mobile phone has always been to keep the OS nice and "slim". Android is pretty good at this since it uses Linux (which is pretty slim compared to Windows/MacOS).

Windows Mobile is FAT. It's ridiculously bloated and as it's been around for so long it's just kind of accumulated mass like a rolling snowball. HTC and XDA do a great job of hiding it but you can just always tell.

The iPhone OS is shockingly bloated. They think 16GB and adequate specs give them an excuse but it's almost as bloated as WinMo and it only caters to ONE PHONE (two models now).

Surely the Java side to Android surely must bloat it, and something about it makes me think it is. Java is a bloated tool as it is, and it's useful for many reasons among dynamic compiling (I think), but it seems like they could have done a better job sticking to pure Linux. Looks at Maemo for example.
[Nexus One General] s15274n:
How does one answer how bloated a OS is?

My attempt: Android is NOT bloated
[Nexus One General] jsoverson:
What in the world do you mean by 'bloat'? You can't use such a subjective word so much without qualifying it with some sort of description.
[Nexus One General] Antiskunk:
lol yeah. Sometimes it just feels like there's excess, causing the OS to slow down unnecessarily.

For instance, android using java. It seems like it's a waste; causing over-use of the hardware, where something customised may reduce it.

Like Vista. Vista was bloated compared to xp, making it run much more slowly, despite having above-adequate hardware.

I suppose it's not true java, it is custom java, is it not?

I just feel sometimes it slows down when it shouldn't.

Don't get me wrong, it does an incredible job and I love it over any other OS.
[Nexus One General] JanetPanic:
Bloat is a subjective term at best. And unecessarily? Everything is a tradeoff. Generally, especially without JIT, java based apps will not run as fast as a C based app. The tradeoff is in sandboxing, control, and ease of development. The question is whether the speed difference significantly impacts the user experience. It varies with the individual but I suspect most people would find the Nexus 1 to be sufficiently responsive.

Clearly you have never tried to develop a complex system, much less an operating system. The vast majority of the time the CPU is barely used. The concept of "over-use of hardware" is not a well formed one. The question instead should be whether the infrastructure makes efficient use of the hardware. In real life you look at the infrastructure and make a balance as to what can be done to ease development and support while maintaining the sense of responsiveness for the end user.

Vista is an example where the balance was not weighted to match user expectation and thus all the complaints of "bloat." The N1 by comparison can not be said to be slow or unresponsive. Sure, it could be made faster, and chances are future releases will reflect that. This does not mean that the N1 is "bloated".

Yes, Dalvik is a custom java bytecode format. Again a compromise for the memory and cpu found in an embedded device versus a full size computer.

Don't take this personally but bloated is an annoying term used when people do not understand how to phrase "I want it faster." Bloat implies the removal of something unnecessary to make the system better.

What shall we remove from Android? Java/Dalvik? The entire platform is based on Dalvik, remove it and you are essentially starting over with your own set of compromises. Memory management? Can't remove it at all. Multitasking/background threads? Well here is something that can/does slow down the main system but for good reason. Commercial apps like Amazon MP3? Well they do not impact performance and are considered desirable by some.

So no, the N1 is not "bloated". It is a sum of parts to support a specified set of features and level of effort for development. Feel free to write your own platform though, or a custom ROM with the components you feel are unnecessary removed.

The work on JIT will likely improve speed a good deal, but that is not removing features; That is optimizing the platform, if we waited for the platform to be optimized it would never get released at all.
