[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Easy enough for anyone with the Desire alpha ROM to test, just force close Sense and see what happens why you hit the home button.

Should give you the option to choose between Sense and Launcher.
[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
The only time I have to reset my n1 is when the screen loses calibration, or the apps wont start downloading from market, or if nothing shows up in gallery (sometimes reentering gallery fixes it), or if the browser freezes, or maps wont load, or the audio jack doesnt work, or text/mms wont send, but not all n1s have these issue plus theyre software related (maybe not audio jack) so they'll get fixed as google stabilizes android
[Nexus One General] na_rsx:
will the Desire work with Tmobile like the N1?
[Nexus One General] KK43:
I'm probably switching, tired of bad 3g and losing reception altogether. Was thinking of sending it to HTC as it's under warranty but I won't bother as I don't think they'll do anything about it.

Was initially thinking of getting the legend as I prefer the look and size vs. the desire, but not sure I can go back to a slower processor.

Anyone want to buy a used N1 ;-)
[Nexus One General] Henchman:
Must be your location.

No problems here with 3G or reception.
[Nexus One General] KK43:
No it's not the location, used different sim cards in the N1 vs. hero (my old one) & magic (my wife's), n1 always worse off and when other struggle n1 just loses reception altogether (in different locations too)
[Nexus One General] svntsvn:
Im not sure if the specs are the same and the desire rom on the nexus will have divx and 720p recording. If so, there really isnt a reason to switch. I however could switch because I like to wake up my phone by the bottom hardware button, rather than fumble the top button. Better one handed use.

The ecosystem of the nexus could have potential when we see the car dock come out, and the desire lacks the docking pins. Overall, I would prefer the desire, but not at a 200.00 loss by the time it comes out. By then, we could see some better snapdragon offerings also. I heard may was the soonest it would arrive on at&t anyway.
[Nexus One General] tropmonky:
To start off with no I'm not a Apple or iPhone fan boy. Prior to me getting the iPhone 3G I tried EVERY smartphone out at the time other than the iPhone. I TRIED to find something that would do the things I wanted to do without getting an iPhone, so let that be known.

Stability = apps... one thing the iPhone has is uniformity from one phone to the next. If an app works on one phone 99% of the time it will work on the others (with exception of some of the compass stuff really). Then again I think that the apple SDK trumps every other SDK I've ever seen so that also makes it easier to make stable apps that will run on the 3GS down to the 2G phone. I think the Android OS is AWESOME and the only other OS that comes close is Palms WebOS. Right there you see what a proper SDK can do, Palm was so dang late to the game with a proper SDK it left users with pretty nice hardware and great OS with like NO APPs.

where I personally have seen stability issues:

I start up navigation (with voice turned off/muted) then start Pandora in the car. Often if I try to go out of Pandora and back to navigation it will have issues. By issues I mean major freeze and then will come back after around 1min, OR I go back to the main page and no matter what I touch on the screen it ONLY clicks on the home button bringing up the apps list. I can get this to happen about 3 times out of 10, and it happens more often if I haven't rebooted the phone in quite a while. I keep things free by using a task killer so I know it's not because I have too much stuff running. I do think that it will become more stable with the next few updates.

Multitouch = I honestly don't need three finger tracking. What I do need is a precise and can handle multitouch mainly for typing fast and to not get confused if another part of my hand happens to be touching the side of the glass. Typing on the N1 has got to be the biggest thing I dislike about the phone so far, and I tried the SenseUI ROM last night and the HTC keyboard kicks butt compared to the stock one. Unfortunately I couldn't even get it to sync with my blutooth headset so I'm back on the stock ROM till it gets fixed.

Anyhow I think people changing from the N1 will be because of a few key differences. Those being; FM radio, physical home keys, optical trackpad, default Sense UI, more built in memory.

I agree right now having that extra memory isn't needed, but I'd put money down that in 1yr from now it will be a nice thing to have, LOL.

No I'm not an apple fan boy, I tried the G1 when it came out but it was unusable for me as I HAVE to have POP mail at the least and it wasn't even working when the G1 first came out, LOL. cheers guys! Oh, and for the 6th or 7th time I woke up to my phone loosing my Exchange email setup and had to re-set it up... Something I believe the SenseUI will help with as it uses a different setup for exchange...
[Nexus One General] bmj1086:
The reason apps work from one phone to the next is because there is only one iPhone. The only differences are additions to the OS. There is no choice. You either have an iPhone or you don't. You can have Android without having a Nexus one. That's the difference. You're comparing an OS that works on multiple types of phones to an OS that works on one single phone with different versions.

Your freezing must be related to the Pandora App itself because I use last.fm and navigation all the time. Back and forth from one to the other with no issues. By no issues I mean there is absolutely 0 lag. Everything is 100% responsive and switched immediately. Apps aren't perfect. The only way to make them perfect is to inform the developer of the application what has happened and how it happened. Last.fm has a forum on their website where the developer has dedicated to issue reports. He also has a section dedicated for suggestions.

This issue has happened to me one time since I have gotten the phone. The only thing I did was turn the screen off for 3 seconds and turn it back on. Issue resolved. I think a majority of people's issues are ROM related. Are you using Cyanogens ROM by any chance?

About task killer. Such an over used app if I've ever seen one. There is no reason to kill apps that are running and sitting in your RAM. Leave them alone. Android can manage the processes on it's own. I do not use a task killer and my phone runs flawlessly. With the 40 apps I have running right now I have absolutely no lag time. When your phone needs more resources for an app that you are trying to run, Android will kick one of the apps out based on it's last use.

The touch screen on this phone is one of the most precise touch screens I have used. I work for AT&T and everybody around me has an iPhone. I use it every day. I do not have any complaints about the iPhone's screen or the typing but I prefer the Nexus one because it works better for me. Maybe because I'm used to it but I like it.[/QUOTE]

I don't know one person who listens to FM radio more than 30 minutes a month. I don't even have my presets defined in my car. They're all set to default. And I have never heard of anybody complaining about it not having an FM radio. But I guess if people want that more power to them.

I have my phone throttled at 691mhz. I do not use 1ghz. It's unnecessary in all aspects. 512 RAM is more than enough for this phone to run smoothly.
[Nexus One General] deekjx:
Is there a way to set a hard limit on the number of apps running in the back ground?
[Nexus One General] poubella:
I would not upgrade my N1 just for the radio.... but I assume you're american and wonder why people in your area never listen to FM. My nokia lets me listen to fm radio and I love it, I carry it for this only purpose.

Maybe the us radio stations suck?
[Nexus One General] bmj1086:
Under Dev Tools > Development settings. There is a dropdown that lets you set an app process limit. But again I don't see the purpose.

Possibly. I mean, People listen to the radio. A lot actually. But there is nothing of interest for me. The people that I know that listen to the radio mostly have no interest in it being on their mobile phone. FM radio is over stuffed with advertisements and repeated songs. If you listen to a radio station here you will hear the same set of songs played every day. I prefer choosing my music. I love Last.fm because it is exactly what I want.
[Nexus One General] tropmonky:
Yep, you just made my point. As a developer it's that much easier to make, test, and have more certainty that your app will work for everyone

when it works there is 0 lag and it's magnificent. I'm coming off a hacked iPhone where everything would run fine (albeit slow after a few apps were running). I'm not new to hacking phones or other items and currently own a pretty nice little computer consulting firm in Los Angeles so I'm not a total snubnose when it comes to electronics, phones and the like.

Nope, I'm running the BONE STOCK ROM when this happens.

A task killer is great when an app decides to not want to respond which happens a LOT more than on a iPhone or WebOS phone for that matter...

I donno what you're smoking but I and I believe most people that have OWNED (not just used) an iPhone would disagree. I nearly would never miss clicking small links on webpages with the iPhone or HTC HD, but on the N1 I hit the spot where the link is and it seems to pick the one below or above, then when I go back and do the same thing it will pick the opposite like it just doesn't want to register the point where I'm currently trying to touch to open a link... NEVER had this happen on the HTC HD or iPhone 3G.

LOL, why stream when you can listen to the same thing (like NPR) using LESS battery... it's such a easy thing to include why not have it there? answer me that?

Speed has never been one of my issues, this thing FLYS even on a STOCK ROM..

Again, with RAM what is great or overboard today won't be in a matter of 1yr so that's a moot point.

In all honesty moving from a N1 to a Desire is just being nit-picky for the most part and I understand that. However if you look at the poll there are many people willing to make that jump or at least thinking about it....

Cheers!
[Nexus One General] Bumble-Bee:
Only thing i want is the Flash and Divx which will be on the N1 in due time not just the desire.

Also the only reason we can root the N1 is because HTC/Google spcificaly allowed us to making The N1 like an android development phone. The deisier will probably not have such as simple way to ROOT. And looking at the security in the N1 and how tight the kernal security we may never see a method of rooting the desier.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
Why don't you just admit the N1 touch screen problem is hardware related! You just completely avoid the question...I see AT&T trained you well. video of touch screen problem on desire and here AND here. The list of problems with this phone keeps growing. I won't even go into the 3G issues..
[Nexus One General] Henchman:
I would like to say, that I am more interested un the FM transmitter than the receiver.

Would be great to use it to transmit audio output to my car radio.
[Nexus One General] Teeceman:
I have recently got my Nexus One and am using it on O2 UK and found it to be rock solid for me.

I have a 3 month old Nokia N97 and was so &*%$ with it's performance I researched the latest and upcoming Android phones and plumped for the N1 (got to love firmware updates available to all N1 owners).

No phone is 100% perfect but some are closer to that then others, I think the Nexus One is, I have no buyers remorse I love the phone. The only think I really miss is the FM Radio & transmitter and a proper Last FM Mobbler client. But it's good to know that the Snapdragon has FM receiver and transmitter capabilities so I'm hoping Google will update the firm to make use of the Snapdragons potential.

I knew didn’t have multi touch when I brought it, but read that firmware update was likely, however even though the issue around the implementation of multitouch and whether it’s hardware or software related seems to be a problem for some, I find the phone functions great for me regardless of this issue and even though I still have time to return my N1, there is no way I would.

New phone hardware come out so frequently these days you could spend forever second guessing, and when you eventually buy find that the phone has some inherent fault or is not well supported.

I will be upgrading one of my phone contracts in April and have decided that I will wait for the Sony Erricsson Xperia X10 and bypass the HTC Desire as it’s to close to the N1.
[Nexus One General] Bumble-Bee:
Tbh the n1 has the h/w to do that probably only needs softwhere tweeked to do so.
[Nexus One General] Bumble-Bee:
LOL those videos make me laugh so hard !! if anyone ever looked into this that well would realise its not a missalingment fault or any hardwhere defect lol. When it gets "dissalinged" all it is doing is being more scencetive than is needed picking up two touch events for where your hnds or fingers are and the SW gets bugged into thinkinh of taking the point inbetween the two i.e a large finger creates a touch event in a funny place it the s/w will try and compensate badly. Really look at the pointer location app in dev tools. u will see the scrteen is picking up two touch events.

Anyway I owed a 3GS before the N1 for about 3/4 monthes and the N1 toucscheen is better by far IMO.

I need to be able to use the internet sharing w/out signing up with AT&T , my phone is lock, can someone help me and let me know what can I do to activate the Internet sharing?

do I need to unlock the phone ?

do I need to unlock the sim card?

whats the eases way to unlock my At&t HTC Pure ?

I work outdoor in sales and I need to use my laptop all the time ..

please help....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leemoss84:
are you trying to use internet sharing with no data plan? if so, that wont work
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hgajjar:
Like "leemoss84" commented, you can't use internet sharing if you don't have data plan, as internet sharing is using the data plan of your phone for browsing internet on computers.

But if you want to use the wireless (Wi-Fi) feature of the phone without using the data plan, disable the 'Proxy'

Start > Tools > Proxy Manager > Disable Proxy

also in the Settings > Connections > Select Network

select "My ISP" instead of MEdia Net

once you've done this, you can access wireless network without being charged by AT&T.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julien01:
I do have Data plan

I do have a Data Plan with AT&T with unlimited internet, but At&t wants me to charge me an extra $60 a month! just for tethering with my laptop

or to use the phone as a modem.

I want to know if there is a way to jump the $60.00 a month they want to charge on top of the unlimited internet and voice plan Im paying now.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
To tether undetected, just make sure both your internet connections in "Settings\Connections\Connections\Advanced Select Networks" are set to MediaNet and take out any proxy server in "Settings\Connections\Connections\Tasks\Manage Existing Connections"

I do it all the time.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julien01:
Bruce thanks, so I went to take out the proxy server in "Settings\Connections\Connections\Tasks\Manage Existing Connections"

I i see a message on the TASK tab " The Connection is pre-configured it cannot be modified :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geraldf80:
I didn't know that would work unless you use a custom rom. I wasn't able to tether untill I flashed with dutty's. after that.. a few changes (media net, etc. mentioned above.) and I was off and running..

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chibixzero:
step one assume you have topaz (htc pure) in my case

go here to this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=520312

then once thats done go here and choose your rom that you want to flash

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=486

I recomend NRGZ28 Max manila http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=562942

basicly when you download the rom if everything went well with step one just open the RUU file (looks like a topaz phone icon) and follow instructions. Make sure your phone is connected via sync

again this is a fast tutorial theres more detail ones around here in these forums
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c3collar:
I had the same trouble when I first got the pure. There is a way to use ICS on the original rom. You have to change some registry values. I searched the internet and found the instuctions and it worked. But since then I have used many different roms that are better than the original and don't have that problem. I would recommend the energy rom. Remember to install hard spl first.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiks19018:
Don't you have a app "Remove Proxy server"?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhozt:
all of this is comepletly not needed . there is a reg edit that will handle this easily over on the att forum . ;-) just do some digging like i did no flashing or other programs needed .
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leemoss84:
might as well just install a simple app that is 2kb. it will save time considering you didnt post the edit and when you hard reset you dont have to go looking for it again, all you gotta do is install the app.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julien01:
I will do some more research

then I need a app to manipulate the Registry on my HTC PURE with AT&T.

WOW ! I got it the HTC PURE AT&T Solution to install the latest "Hard SPL"

Wow!

First thank you for all your contributions and inputs trying to help me with my problem Flashing the HTC PURE AT&T

Here is what I did:...

I was having a lot of problems trying to install the latest "Hard SPL", specially with USB communication and even when my phone was connected via ActiveSync.

I tried the automatic Flash and the manual with no results........ I was about to give up!

Also I download the

"enablerapinew.cab"

and installed on my phone main memory and ran the .cab and I got the message "installation of

enablerapinew.cab

was unsuccessful"- so i was going NUTS ! :eek: and I tried another .cab files to see if I was getting the same error and .... same thing I tried different .cab files like TOMTOM , google maps and a Games and all of them gave me the same message !"installation of

enablerapinew.cab

was unsuccessful":eek:

mmm........

So what I did was I reset the phone to the Manufacturers setup ( you know entering the password) 1234 and the phone will be like the first time you turned on.

so after that I install the

enablerapinew.cab

b and the installation was successful ! and everything else work !;)

now I have the ROM i wanted ! and .....

KISS GOODBYE AT&T !!!;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leemoss84:
yeah, a good hard reset will work wonders sometimes when you got a problem that cant be fixed. congrats.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2002wrex:
so i have a question... i am running a custom rom on my phone, but my dad wants to basically do what the OP wanted, internet tethering without paying for the extra tethering plan. i cannot convince him to let me flash a new rom, likes the phone as is, just wants internet sharing. if i run that .cab on his phone, do i have to then make registry changes, or will the cab do all the work? what else would i need to do to give him his internet sharing?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Just install the cab.

AT&T tracks tethering through their proxy server, the reg edit just takes out the proxy settings as does the cab.

Its the same tweak, just different ways to get there.

To verify it worked go to Settings\Connections\Connections\Manage Existing Connections\Proxy Settings and confirm it is blank.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julien01:
the "enablerapinew.cab" this CAB is for phones with problem installing the Hard SPL, the "enablerapinew.cab" will enable the phone to install the "Hard SPL" and them you need to flash the ROM , on my case I did a hard reset and them install the "enablerapinew.cab" them run the cab , and them flash the Rom, and after that I was able to share internet w/out problems :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
This cab is what I meant.

No need to flash a new ROM to tether.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2002wrex:
so just install the "removeHiddenProxy4CWS_1219.cab" and internet tethering will be allowed?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Correct, but verify the proxy has been removed before you try. See me previous post for where proxy settings are.

How can I tether with my HTC Pure using the stock rom.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Badcam3:
You dont need to tether anything. turned my phone into a wifi mobile hotspot using a program on here. i cant remember what it was called and the program on my phone is called XDA-Wifi-Sharing. it is a great program and AT&T has not found out I am doing this. i think this is because i am using the media net connection I am not sure though. be warned though this will drain and kill the battery pretty quickly even when plugged in. that is what is disappointing about it :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhozt:
do this

Go to following registry key [HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings] and delete "ForceCellConnection" value will enable the network connection selection dropdown box in InternetSharing application.

it allows to to choose the correct proxy they wont charge you tethering on . so there ;-)

To unlock the Preconfigured Connection you have to do Registry Edit. With a registry editor go to "HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations\MEdia Net" and change "ReadOnly" from 1 to 0. This should do the trick.
