OK.... idiot mode off

Having resisted posting here for years because I hate the 'stupid' posts and feared the vitriolic reaction once I made one, I have just managed to make myslef the target for a typically acerbic post pointing out that I have been a dumbass and missed out the "%" in the %20 part of a filename.

It appears I have uploaded the same version you already have access to.

Apologies.

What do you guys think?

A couple things..I love the transititions...love the speed, love the connectivity...Snapdragon looks good. Of course the UI need to be finished but I like the direction. As I said in different boards, who need X buttons, softkeys and taskbars, scrollbars etc...this. Also I'd like to address the multitasking. So, YES and NO to multitasking. The Reps from M$ as you'll see in the videos in my post don't outright confirm multitasking in the sense that we are used to but it seems that they they phone itself does multitask in the way that it remembers where you were in the application so when you close an application and open it again, it is right where you left off. Not true multitasking its more similar to Android. Honestly I don't mind it if the OS can keep loadtimes low, and still keep functionality high. I am highly impress with this early build. We are still months away from seeing this in stores...imagine the finished product

~style~
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jjblaster3:
the reason i left symbian devices (and never tried out iphone, android devices or even the new emerging maemo devices) is the customization and the functionality of windows mobile...

i mean not just putting widgets on homescreen or having 5 homescreen pages which look the same, but more of completely changing the way ur device looks... Take for example wm6.5 homescreen, replace it with touchflo/manila/new sense and u got somethin totally new... Or the addition of spb mobile shell, the new soon to come touchXperience and the already in beta stage infinity UI, that is what I call full functional customization. And if MS win phone 7 is goin to take away that functionality, then its like takin one step forward and 2 steps back.

that being said, it is still not fully confirmed but if MS is taking away that functionality, can we still have hope for some kind of emulator... u know kinda like win xp mode that win 7 brought to us

only instead of win xp (or maybe even win xp :p) we can have maybe wm 6.6 (if its gonna come out or perhaps the latest of wm6.5 (6.5.x)

the speedtest.net app.

could it be exagerated?

[Nexus One General] dnanj:
I'm in Fort Worth and I don't see anything close to the speed mentioned in the OP.

One thing that kinda makes sense though, considering that the OP mentioned the speeds posted was in Arlington, is perhaps Tmobile bumped up their network in Arlington as a way to show their networks capabilities to Tmobile users that were in town for the NBA All Stars. After all if I remember correctly, Tmobile is a sponsor and it would be a shame if Tmobile users can't get any decent data coverage in the stadium.
[Nexus One General] bogdi1988:
Ran tests all over Dallas, and Richardson. I always get around .6-.9Mb/s down and about .2-.5Mb/s up. This was done with the ookla app. The one from xtreme labs gave me even 2-3Mb/s, but it seems buggy, since i never got that speed...

Went to Houston this winter, and got about 2Mb/s in the airport, which was at least double of the speed i am getting in Dallas area... T-Mo 3G is kinda ****ty in Dallas.

The video shows a 3D test running on both devices. Anyone care to comment; try to be as unbiased as possible.

Also, I want these apps for myself. I own both devices and would therefore like to do the test myself. Anyone know where I can get some tests? The more the better.

Edit: Probably best if you read this first. (Video included anyway)

[Nexus One General] uansari1:
I know that the 3GS is a very capable 3D gaming device... but N1 is working with half the RAM, so I only see this as a test of the device in their current state and it'll change substantially with the expected kernel update.
[Nexus One General] veive:
Well, the first thing that comes to mind is this guy does not specify what he did with the resolution on the N1.

Higher resolution = more workload = not an accurate test.

Also, the colors on the iphone looked washed out to me.

EDIT: Sorry, I missed the article.

Looks like Google needs to fix the Kernel memory issue and possibly update the android dev environment.
[Nexus One General] SilentMobius:
The tester does mention that they reduced the viewport on the n1 to match the 3gs.

I'd be deeply interested in seeing how their test changed ig ther used the same compilation option as cyanogen does for his AOSP build including the Arm Neom optimisations.

Additionally I believe that the NDK can't currently use the OGLES2.0 library only the 1.1 version. I wonder id the code paths are more optimised there.
[Nexus One General] Cetin:
Just a noob question, what is ram got to do with framerates?
[Nexus One General] lightforce:
If they were using the Same Resolution the would get the same FPS. But our Res is ALOT higher
[Nexus One General] nexusonetwothree:
In the video it says that Nexus has OpenGL ES 2.0 support. I thought Google did not include the 2.0 libraries in the code, so I wonder if this benchmark software actually using the full specs of the Nexus GPU.

Anyone know if the developers even take full advantage of the GPU in the Nexus one yet?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] midnightmach:
I talked to a rep today on the phone and told him I was using a custom firmware and wanted my Data back.

He said sign this waiver, saying you cannot hold Rogers responsible for not being able to dial 911, and you can use your custom firmware. :D

Thank me later. Unless this is old news...

https://your.rogers.com/web_auth/HT...ts-_-Consumer_Wireless_Eng-_-Form-_-HTCwaiver

After signing you will have data back in 24hours.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] daeshawn:
it is old news , but i've tried for 2 days now and it will constantly tell me to enter a valid serial number ..I am using the IMEI from the box and under battery still no success
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] midnightmach:
Ah ok, yea it's not taking my IMEI either... i called rogers and they are working on it... hopefully they get back to me quickly.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sindrefyrn:
Is this a downgrade? So you can use custom ROMs? Or is it just data enabler for rogers customers? This won't help anyone stuck on sense?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zortoflaven:
I signed this on Friday and since have had my data cut twice! :mad:

The 2G Force trick works for getting it back every time so far, so I haven't bothered to call them on it yet. If they start redirecting my calls again they will hear from me for sure.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] PurpleFries:
I talked to rogers live support because my imei number wasnt being accepted and he ended up putting it through... i think... I haven't installed a rom that wouldnt be blacklisted yet but yeah try that
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bjtheone:
The waiver form is mostly broken. The IMEI database it is verifying against seems to be missing many IMEIs for handsets purchased directly from Rogers, let alone from other carriers.

If you jump up and down and get to a tier 2 guy, he can manually get your IMEI added to the database so you can put the waiver through. The front line guys cannot add your IMEI, though they can send off a request for it to be added.

If you complain enthusiastically enough, they can re-enable your data services on the spot.

Apparently they cannot fill out the waiver for for you if you IMEI is not being recognised, though the tier 1 techs will lie and claim they are doing this.

This is based on my personal experience, of calls on Saturday, Sunday, a call back from a tier 2 on Monday and then a long and unpleasant call with retentions this afternoon. Magically the retentions supervisor could get me through to a tech that had override capabilities within minutes, once we got past the lies and bull**** stage.

In theory, once you get your waiver in, they should stop screwing around with your data services, redirecting voice calls, and hassling calls and text messages. I will see how it goes....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Bedeadu:
Well, thanks for the heads up with this waiver. Of course my IMEI # wasn't valid, so I called Rogers Directly, asking for Tech Support.

The point of my call was to get them to update my account, saying I accept this waiver. I think we all know it is hit and miss when speaking with Reps. I was speaking to a guy, he asked my Build Version, and firmware. I didn't tell him the Build Version (MarsDroid SPL7 1.8), because I knew it would not be acceptable. I told him my f/w was 1.6, which he said would be acceptable.

At this point, he said that I would NOT lose my data again, and Rogers would stop scanning my phone. I made sure to ask the question, so whatever I do to my phone at this point on doesn't matter, my data will not be cut off? He said yes.

I am only repeating what I was told, I think you can probably tell by my wording that I am not convinced this will be the case. Eitherway, I feel more confident to flash back to my old radio, which is all i want, because the kernel is much more developed, and makes for much more stable and faster ROMs.

Also, should let you know, so far I haven't had my data cutoff, I switched to CursorSense ROM before the Rogers scanning started, and have stayed on the New Radio up until now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] frenchy128:
I signed the waiver on Friday, and got my service back Sunday morning.

No issues with IMEI...

I then called on Monday to get my free HTC Magic that I've been b1tching about for the last month (calling once a week)..

things are looking ok for now.. I have a Dream running Open Eclair (2.1), and now a stock unrootable Magic (1.5).. gonna keep the Magic legit thou..

I hope the best for all of you out there...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] QtOn:
I lost my data six days ago now and I've called Tech Support 4 times since to help get it back. The waiver won't accept my IMEI and I've been escalated twice. Spoke with tier 2 support 3 times and a Manager. Apparently there is a system wide problem with allowing some IMEIs to be entered for the waiver to work. I'm getting so frustrated now, I don't know what else to do but wait. I've asked for network refreshes each time, and I've been running Cursorsense with the new radio.

Any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stgeorge88:
i lost data yesterday when running a customized 2.1 rom; flashed cursorsense, asked for data reset, and it comes back.

totally not expecting to be haunted with this after so long since the update.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] QtOn:
I've been asking for refreshes as well, but I can't find anyone who's willing to do it.

I've even told them that I want to use my old phone until they fix the IMEI problem, but they said they can't allow me to use data on any phone until I do the waiver because I might go back to use the Magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stgeorge88:
LMAO @ rogers...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] widowmaker777:
I am royally pissed about this because Rogers quietly released this after they started redirecting calls. I would have gladly signed this waiver if I knew about it, but instead was forced to update to their retarded ROM and now I'm stuck with all the pre-installed BS apps and without root access. They should at the very least give people the option to revert back to the old ROM via another "update". I was forced into this update because I couldn't afford to spend (scratch that, WASTE) time dealing with redirected calls.

In lighter news, HTC tweeted about their knowledge of specifically the issue with Rogers and promised something about 2.1 soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] frankinmerth:
After reading all this I don't feel so bad about all my data issues. After refusing to flash the rom on the phone with rogers, they offered to send me a free magic+ with the new rom pre-installed. I signed the waiver also. So now I have my old magic with a custom rom, and a new one in a box with the rogers official update that I plan to sit on at least until HTC's 2.1 comes out.

On top of that I *****ed them out so hard after my 4th or 5th data loss/refresh experience that they offered me a few free months and reduced the cost of my data plan.

All of that and I was still pissed I didn't take their offer to upgrade to an iphone at a cost, I was too mad and just kept saying "I'm not paying anything to fix this crap" lol. Doh!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] QtOn:
It's been 9 days now without data, and each time I talk to someone, I keep getting the same answer "We are aware of your situation and your call has been escalated and it will be fixed soon, try again tomorrow."

I want my data back and have been willing to do the waiver (it won't accept my imei). Have been running cursorsense with the new radio since all this has began.

I've spoken to Tier 2 support, managers and customer care. Who's left to talk to?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] frankinmerth:
telus, bell....? Honestly don't take that kind of ****, threaten to leave if they keep f'n you around, and follow through if they don't sort it out. There's no reason to pay for nothing. They give you a free month? So what, you're using them for their service, no service.. whats it matter if its free or not?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stgeorge88:
dude, you are now officially my role model.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stillriza:
I was reading this & I remembered a situation I had with Bell regarding my internet contract. I've tried that threaten to leave.. and was expecting to get away with some kind of deal..

then was totally shocked when the csr said, 'sure, so you will owe us the remainder of your term...plus a early cancellation fee'

in the end, it costs more to leave then to just stick around.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] QtOn:
The same happened to me the other day, they told me it would cost me over 600 to cancel the account for all 3 of my phones.
