What is the difference between the Cyanogen's N1 Addon which I am getting from this tutorial:

http://androidandme.com/2010/01/hacks/video-how-to-unlock-and-root-a-nexus-one/

and the ROMS available on this page (and which one do I download. There's a dozen!)

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/downloads/rom

Where do I download the radio and why is ERE36B better in the USA? A poster above said I should stay with the one I have (27).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8gorilla:
addon - vs mod

The add-on was what Cyanogen made before google released the source code for android 2.1. It is not a full custom rom.

The ROM's ie. 5.0.4.1 is all the Cyanogen tweaks, highmem etc. 360 degree rotation (left right and upside down if you enable it) and all sorts of stuff.

You really should try both radios and see which one works better for you. Some people have better results with one and some the other. I have the best continuous 3G/HSPDA signal with the ERE36B radio.

On Cyanogen mod forum, go to nexus one and there is a link to get the latest stable ROM 5.0.4.1 that is what you want. You have to also download the Google add-on.

Cyan used to include them but got a nice letter from google telling him he was not allowed to "optimize" their stuff. So he puts it in a separate package as is, and you have to flash it after you flash his rom to get the google apps.

Google apps will be called: gapps-passionERE36B(2) or something very similar.

I am willing to answer any questions you have just send me a pm.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8gorilla:
there is a thread here about your warranty and as long as you have a problem that is a legit hardware defect HTC has been replacing them, dust under screen bad battery, and a few other things.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whodatfever:
GR8Gorilla. Thank you for all of this. It was a convoluted mess trying to decipher some of the tutorials. I am very grateful and am starting the process in a few minutes. I'll let you know how it goes and thank you again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8gorilla:
Remember if and when you flash the radio, plug in phone, and whatever you do, do not pull the battery while it is doing the radio. That is the biggest NO NO. It can make a nice nexus One paperweight. As long as you dont pull the battery you will be fine. I have flashed mine about 4 or 5 times....and I have flashed roms about 1000 times.

The phone is going to reboot a couple of times during a radio flash, be patient.

Hello,

Using sense 2.1 (rom gen.Y D2 R4/5) , "my location" always sets to Quebec, Quebec when I am actually in Montreal, Quebec. Is there any way to manually set it?

Else anyone has firgured out a fix?

Thanks.

::EDIT:: I can add Montreal as a location, it's the 'my location' tab that doesn't recognize that I am in Montreal and not Quebec.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
Has this happened on any other ROM's? Also, what radio do you have?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Phillis:
Tried different radios with same result. This occurs on every rom I try with the my location feature.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr.horndoctor:
When you say "my location" feature are you referring to google maps?

If so this may be an issue with the google maps application.

Have you tried various gps apps to see if the other apps give the same results?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Phillis:
Google maps reports my location properly on the map, it is the my location in HTC sense for weather/time that is incorrect. Is google feeding the data to sense?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr.horndoctor:
Ah Ok! That clears that up.

No google maps has nothing to do with htc sense.

Sorry, I don't know much about htc sense. I would think someone has figured out how to edit it manually or has created a fix to point htc sense time/weather to an alternate server to give more accurate data though. :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dieselboy:
May be the problem is google maps.

Seriously, I have this same problem with my htc sense. If I travel further into London however, it seems to work, but displays the wrong location by about half a mile. But where I live it just doesnt work at all. I've manually set my location because it doesnt work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Phillis:
Same here...I set it manually, but it reverts back after some time.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr.horndoctor:
Hmm...Is there a selection somewhere that resets/updates your location automatically? Maybe that can be switched off? :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Phillis:
Not that I know of. If you disable the my location feature, it will still show up as "My location" but will not update.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] TRiKi®:
How did you set it manually?

I have tried using Advanced Configuration Tool but it doesn´t work at all.

Thanks!

My location

Hi

so did anyone work out how to set the my location manually? Some people said they did in this thread but didnt say how?!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] haffy:
Hope this helps someone else....

go to world clock add your city

you have the choice of setting the clock to 'your location ' or the city ; select the city

now go to weather and make sure you have the same city set up.

this now fixed the problem where 'my location' on the home page didnt show the weather.

well it fixed it for me!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tiga2001:
How to Set Location Manually on HTC Aria

I've finally figured out how to set my location manually on my HTC Aria. To be specific, I'm talking about the weather/time widget that comes on the middle home screen of all HTC phones. Mine is rooted, so I'm not sure if it's any different than a regular one, since I couldn't find this "set my location" button that everyone is saying is in the widget configuration.

Basically, the steps I took to set my location manually is:

First go to the screen where your clock widget is.

Tap the clock, then go into the second tab, World Clock.

Add your desired city

Go out of this screen by pressing home

Delete the clock widget

Add the widget again by pressing the + key on the bottom right, and then Widget, then scroll down to Clock and tap it.

The widget that you want is the 3rd one

Once you add that widget to the screen, it will ask you to set your location. Your location will be available only if you have it in the World Clock

Set your desired location

Essentially, you are deleting the widget and re-adding it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] losdelrock:
Hi - I fixed my HTC weather widget issue by:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] .:ArMinO:.:
Hmm... I have this same issue. But I don't want to root my phone. My city (or better, village) is not in the list of cities of HTC Sense Locations. It is driving me crazy. Could anyone help me with this?

Or... How can I change HTC Sense Locations set my location by GPS and not with mobile towers?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tiga2001:
Well, when I'm physically in my small hometown, the phone picks up where I am as "Actual Location", so I assume you are talking about when you are away on a trip? Maybe you can add a farther, bigger city? That's what I had to do.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] .:ArMinO:.:
What I'm thinking is that my village has shown as my location only two or three times. But almost always is HTC showing my location in wrong village (near to my village, but not my..) Do you know what I'm thinking about?

And I can't find my village (Velke Kostolany) in manual finding of HTC location.

Or do you know how to change setting my location by GPS and not by mobile towers?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tiga2001:
Oh, I see. I can't say I've seen that situation. I don't think I have any ideas here.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storm99999:
So, my phone slips out of my pocket while I was sitting down today. I pick it up, thinking that that kind of fall can't do damage, but I find that the clicking when I tapped the back no longer happens.

My first thought was to cheer, my second to check the camera app. Sure enough, the autofocus is perpetually stuck at minimum. Anyone experience this before? Is there a possible remedy?

I hardly use the camera, so it isn't critical that it ever works again, but as the saying goes, "The best camera you have is the one with you," and I was kinda getting used to the idea of a reasonable camera quality in such a small size.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storm99999:
Oh, haha, it's all fixed. I realized everything but the lens was solid state, so I tapped it against my table a few times at an angle with cloth on the edge a bit harshly, and a tiny click happened on the third one, dislodging it.
[General Questions and Answers] AiFJ:
Hello!

I have HTC Touch HD with English Windows Mobile 6.1 obtained in China (Beijing).

Internet over GPRS works fine, but i can not check or send e-mail over GPRS. Every time i try to do it i get "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings".

I used to have Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket Loox with English Windows Mobile 5.0. I had the same problem. A friend of mine also has HTC with english Windows Mobile system, he has the same problem.

There is no such problem working over Wi-Fi. And there is no such problem working with GPRS outside China (in Russia for example)

As far as i know chinese windows mobile do not have this problem.

By the way Windows Live and MSN do not work over GPRS (same as mail). as well as ICQ and Jubber clients do not work over GPRS in China Mobile.

I believe the problem can be solved somehow, but i don't know how.

I suppose it's a problem of every phone using ENGLISH windows mobile.

Can anyone help me, please? :confused:

Thank you!
[Nexus One General] McFroger3:
So I have been always having trouble when using a custom lock screen so I could wake the device with the trackball. All the lock screens I tried would either work for a little then just stop working all together. Or the lock screen wasn't secure (the screen could be bypassed with a simple button press). I recently started to use dxTop again and got reminded that it has its own custom lock screen, granted its a iPhone style lock screen. But the lock screen have been working with out issue, and no matter what you can not get it to close unless you unlock it. Also dxTop is a nice home replacement and runs smooth on the Nexus. Figure I would throw this out there for anyone else who has similar issues.

EDIT:

You can also just use the lock screen without using dxTop, just make sure its set to on and just use the launcher home.
[Nexus One General] MontAlbert:
dxtop suck if you want a new theme made by someone other than them. they dont support 3rd party themes anymore since the master baron was bought out. no more template. my gripe.. pity, they were my fave until then.
[Nexus One General] darx:
People have trouble staying on topic here. Lol.

I used lock 2.0 for a while but it was just too slow and didn't always override the old lock.

I'm waiting for something nice myself. I don't like the look of the stock lock.
[Nexus One General] mark.m.moran:
Anyone using Home++, what d you guys think?
[Nexus One General] jerrycycle:
Run home + + and enjoyed it. I have now found flyscreen and so I have stopped while I test flyscreen out.
[Nexus One General] djmcnz:
I've been using Flyscreen for a while now without problems. I have to unlock the normal screen and then Flyscreen when I first start the phone but that's tolerable.

I wish they'd add a widget for the standard music player.
[G1 General] Blackman778g:
When I first rooted my G1 I rooted to Super D 1.9.2 and thats when I realized my G1 still has balls. Now ever since I updated to 1.9.3 it is very slow and laggy. I even wiped and flashed about three times; once a direct update from 1.9.2, once a full wipe the flashed from sd card with redownloaded ROM, and once a flash without wiping from 1.9.2.

Also everytime I use nandroid or backup for root users my G1 goes into bootloop.
[G1 General] Klyentel:
??

have you tried the version with WG-beta 3 kernal yet?

Do you have any swap or cc enabled? If so, how much of either and/or both? Have you tried different settings? What about turning both off?(thats the best in my opinion)

Are you using jit Hack? Correctly installed? (hence all the threads and post going around with everybody's method of using it, and roms with it packaged,lol)--EDIT: also found to be unstable and a ram hog-Cyan

Is home screen in memory or out? (better out if you don't use a lot of widgets)

You wiped 3 times huh?, Did you full or half a** wipe?(meaning data,dalv,ext,battery and rotate settings-thats full wipe) well have you also repaired ext?, fixed permissions?, re-partitioned?, re-flashed 1.6 base?(helps, sometimes.)

Did you flash any 3rd party packaged or compiled zips over it? such as boot.imgs, themes, launchers and stuff like that? (if so, that could be the problem)

Did you reboot at least once after a fresh install? if not, Please do. Usually by second or third boot, everything is running smooth.

How many apps you got? Have you installed any new ones since the lagging started to happen? (if so, get rid of them, or re-install them, that should clear any bad data and cache carried along with it)

Have you tried customizing yourself? Some folks like to push the old contact apk because the newer versions have too many features, causing slow downs

Have you un-installed any eclair or useless system apps?

Are you killing unwanted background processes properly?

ok now....before you attempt to answer any of these questions with a reply or quote...STOP I don't want or expect a response, these questions are what you should be asking yourself, and sometimes that can help you solve your own problems, by taking all of these concepts into consideration, and re-evaluating them for different results.

all in all, the most important question you should ask yourself, DID YOU SEND A DETAILED LOGCAT TO THE DEVELOPER HIMSELF (BEN) BEFORE POSTING THIS THREAD COMPLAINING ABOUT HIS WORK?:confused::confused:

if not, then Im sure you will figure out what to do from here ;), good day sir.
[G1 General] Blackman778g:
Thanks for your time I guess its te for me to get working.

I just remembered that everytime I use backup for root useres it kills my phone and shuts it off then it becomes slow.
[G1 General] 1337rolla:
I tried out Super D w/ wg-kernel 2 days ago and found it pretty laggy. For some reason installing apps would take forever and my navigation app wouldn't install at all.
[G1 General] Klyentel:
what do you use to install your apps? the market or a backup tool?
[G1 General] Blackman778g:
I have that problem too.
[G1 General] 1337rolla:
I install apps with astro and adb. Both are equally slow because I'm pretty sure it is using the sd card only and avoiding using internal memory at all costs... bit too aggressive of a setup. I think my navigation app failed to install correctly because some part of the installer was time sensitive and writing to the sd card went over the clock limit
[G1 General] r4d14n7:
I've had ****ty market performance in every ROM I've used. Market in SuperD w/ WG Kernel behaves exactly the same for me. Installing using ASTRO works excellent for me, however. No CC/Swap. JIT enabled.
[G1 General] Klyentel:
yeah I got astro too...never tried installing system apps with it though....I mostly use root explorer, but hey, either way...tomato - tomatto....all the same.:)
[G1 General] Super Jamie:
I too found Super D 1.9.3 runs really laggy on my G1. I tried all sorts of compcache settings (including off) and started using Adv Task Manager to end non-required apps regularly but it made no difference

Strangely, I then flashed it to my Magic and found it's alot smoother. Maybe not as fast as Dwang but still pretty smooth. Wes Garner reckons the only thing which will slow down a 32B G1 compared to a 32B Magic is Apps2SD.

I did not wipe battery and rotate info on either phone, I didn't think that would cause any problems, though the G1 has had a longer life so perhaps that's the issue.
[G1 General] Klyentel:
always wipe battery and rotate setting when going to a different rom, you don't have to do it if you are updating, or just flashing over the current rom, but if you are going to a whole new build, meaning different kernel or base like from 1.6 to 2.1 for example, wipe the battery and rotate settings.

Cool, thanks for the tip :)

[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
2 posts about the same thing and both of them are in the wrong forums. This is not Android Development. But here:

1. Download task killer and make sure you don't have any programs open that you don't need. Some of the can be quite a memory hogs.

2. Clear your maps/browser/StreetView/market caches to free up some space.

3. Contact developer with your concerns.

And please... post in the right section next time.

Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
The GPU in that device and all other 1st gen phones are toooo old to play advanced 3D games at smooth frame rates. Newer phones like droid,N1,etc are better at gaming than Magic/Dream/Hero....I played that on magic and dream and it was slow on both...I stick to gbaoid or Snesoid....
[G1 Android Development] AndroidMan24:
iv'e seen people play toon warz on their g1 before and it runs smooth...and plus the processor difference between the mt3g and droid is only 28 mhz or so...so any other way to fix it?
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Processor speed isn't everything. The Cortex (Droid) processors have much higher instruction throughput at the same clock speeds than the ARM11 (G1/mT3G).

NOT BUMPING THIS THREAD: Look, you're in the wrong section, you've been given suggestions, and there's not a magic button that will make it suddenly fast, especially on a stock phone. Oh, except make sure that "Settings->Applications->Development->Make phone faster with leprechaun magic" is checked. That gets a lot of people.

Actually after benchmarking few roms htcclays gamercore gives 26fps, some only 19. Try using this rom and set cpu to 528 min/max while playing to make sure it stays at full speed. also use Jit.

Dont use swap or compcache both are slow for gaming, have minor benefits with lots of widgets but slow down over time. You also dont need A2Sd either, running apps from phone memory is faster than any Sd (even class 6)

Hi

I got my HD2 yeasterday flashed it to 1.66 before I even put a sim in it and its been working really well. O2 even sent me a phone I could flash from HTC's website.

One is is that after maybe 1 hour or 4 hours windows live mobile will fail to connnet to msn and pull down emails. Restarting the phone is the only fix.

I have unticked the proxy setting just for it to retick when I click OK. Everything else will work fine just WLM will stop working.

Any ideas why and how to fix it as it is a very helpful feature?
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Same, WLM is just useless. It will crash after about an hour starting by "the wireless network is currently unavailable" even if it is, at which point it's impossible to force it to disconnect, to close it, and it will hang task managers that try to enumerate the running processes so no way to kill it. After several long minutes it will finally say "you've been disconnected" stops hanging everything and can be closed, but relaunching it and trying to reconnect will only give a "network is unavailable" popup straight away before it even tries to connect. Usually it will cause lockups to other programs too in its wake, forcing a reboot.

I'd really appreciate a solution or alternative. Slick crashes with memory errors, IMPlus only manages to connect to msn half the time even if other protocols always work... I just can't find any msn client that actually works.
[HD2 General] matthab:
hmmmm guess ill have to wait for an update to appear. Meanwhile im going to unsync my email and do hotmail via pop3/imap.

Please post which version of WLM you are using (or is it just the one with the stock rom?).

I have loaded your first link onto my phone and we shall see how it goes. I have noticed if i leave MSN signed in it seems to do stop syncing and when i sign out msn the email works again.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
10.7.0061.0500.2000, which is cooked in the ROM i use (see below).

And they really could make longer version numbers...
