I'm using the facebook app. Every message I get it updates. Friendstream I deleted and use the native applications. Albums work but only when they are labelled correctly. One of my albums didnt work, named it correctly and now its 100% fine.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
What we mean by Facebook updates, is where it's suppose to notify you at the top of the screen...and it doesn't.
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
I HATE that there is no dedicated camera shutter button coz I'm vain and all so if I want to take a pic of myself sometimes I'll end up touching the screen when trying to press the trackball etc! It's damn hard holding the lower part of the phone where the trackpad is and press it if you wanna take pic of yourself lol
[Desire General] cez10:
lol why you wanna take a picture of yourself? :rolleyes:
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
For my bf :p:o:o:o
[Desire General] cez10:
oh right sorry lol didnt know your female :P

maybe turn it upside down so its easier to click the trackball and then you could rotate the pic later ? ;) or get your friend or mum to take it ? ;D
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
Ahh, will try the turn it upside down trick :D My mama will freak out if she knew:p:p
[Desire General] evildead4eva:
It does update for me. I get the facebook logo kinda like an F with an envelope behind it.
[Desire General] cez10:
:DDDD

you can always say you gonna upload it to facebook :D

anyone is experiencing the "pink-ish" screen that one of the guys had?
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
I don't think so.. I'm not even sure what it means tbh and I changed my wallpaper to this reddish one so I wouldn't be able to tell if it was pinkish either way lol
[Desire General] cez10:
well suppose you could change back to white or something for testing purposes? :rolleyes:

not sure wither its normal for AMOLED or not, but the OP saw it as an issue, so was wondering wither its his device fault or his eye is just more sensitive to take the "pink-ish-ness" of the screen
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
Right, I changed my wallpaper to this cloud-ish one and nope, no pinkish hue (normal brightness). Tried to max brightness, still no pinkish hue:D
[Desire General] Philko:
Have you tried the self-timer?

Don't be shy. If people are helping you on here don't they deserve to see what you look like aswell? :D;)
[Desire General] jamiepyrite:
Why not use the feature of holding your finger on the screen to take a picture?

My main issues:

optical trackball is rubbish. Innacurate and annoying. You try to get the cursor to a specific letter in a text, you eventually get it there.. then when you left your thumb away from the ball it registers this as a movement and you lose where you were!

The fact it shows every single contact in the contacts list for writing a new text, etc. This is all your gmail contacts, facebook contacts, etc. and my list is over 600 long!!

If I'm listening to music while doing something else, if I view the music widget it sometimes takes a while to update to the current song - it gets stuck on the last song it was on when I last looked at the widget.
[Desire General] trice1921:
Tried that. Android seems to ignore the Album Artist tag. It's really annoying to have hundreds of albums listed when really it's only 35.
[Desire General] evildead4eva:
Ive just copied over 12GB of music and all of them are labelled correctly and all of them play perfectly and list as the albums that I copied across, no more, no less....
[Desire General] trice1921:
And you have albums that contain several different artists? It worked fine on my Hero but not the Desire and it's really bugging me.
[Desire General] evildead4eva:
yup, examples:

1977: The spirit of punk

and

Big Tunes Back 2 The 90s

Disneys Greatest Hits

Hackers - OST

Incredibad

Pulp Fiction ST

Reservouir Dogs OST

Had a bit of trouble with my Ricky Gervais Podcasts and had to rename them for them to work. Also my Crass discology wasnt working propperly and neither was my x-ray spex greatest hits till the albums where named correctly. Oddly i thought they where as copied fine to my ipod but didnt seem to like copying to my desire.

If you select the music player app, then select the left hand side bottom icon (looks like a list) it selects artists, then if you click the disc image it displays albums, play icon is playlists, music note all songs two cds together is genres, music note with music scripture is composers, and last one is purchased. Dunno if your selecting artists so its displaying all artists (which mine does as well) but when i select CD's it just shows the CD's copied over!

Just replaced my memory card with a 16gb one so had to re-copy over my music and changed some songs so thats when these little hiccups of track naming occured!
[Desire General] EroThraX:
I'm still having trouble getting album art to show for a few albums.

Tried multiple ways of getting it to show up.
[Desire General] evildead4eva:
there are certain programs out there that let you embed the artwork into the mp3 itself which works really well. cant remember which one i used with my mp3's that i ripped rather than buying...
[Desire General] EroThraX:
I've tried embedding with M3tag and it still doesn't want to work, I've even cleared the album art cache on the sd card and stopped the music process so that it has to start up and read it all again.
[Desire General] evildead4eva:
hmmmm. I'm not sure what to suggest on this one then... Al of mine work perfectly....
[Desire General] scotch whisky:
I find the optical trackball be be 10 times better than the physical one on the Hero. I have no trouble at all moving to any place in text. I would say that the Hero one was unuseable and the Desire one close to perfect. Strange how opinions vary!
[Desire General] OnlinePredator:
Can't you use the on screen selectors when copying text? No need to use the trackball thing?
[Desire General] trice1921:
I've spent hours trying to solve this problem. I've checked the ID3 tags and for compilation albums i've added 'various artists' under the album artist tag, but still doesn't help. I don't understand why i'm having this problem when i didn't with the my hero. I think i'm going to sell the desire :(
[Desire General] fdrzrich:
Media Monkey is good for this I think, as well as checking/sorting out all the tags.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] simeezee:
mmmm, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's possible. BBM is only for bb users who have unique PINs. I don't think BBM will ever work on the hd2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Maggard:
No BBM for WinMo

Can't.

BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) is based on the unique PIN of each BlackBerry.

No PIN = no BBM.

There are

rumors

that Research in Motion (RIM), the makers of BlackBerry, have an internal MS Windows app for BBMing from their desktops. If it exists it hasn't leaked, and likely requires special account settings from RIM/BlackBerry on their proprietary closed commercial servers.

BBM is nice, and is the standard in corporate environments, but outside that you & your buddy will do just as well using Y! Messenger/MS Live Chat/ICQ/AOL Instant Messenger/Google Chat. All of these are available from RIM for their BlackBerrys and have corresponding clients on Windows Mobile.
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.

N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.

If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.

Android FTW.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Wow... :eek:

[Nexus One General] lorin.bute:
Its far better than the TP2 but it reboots by itself alot. I don't know why. I do understand you, coming form that phone also. But its not perfect yet.
[Nexus One General] martin0285:

[Nexus One General] lorin.bute:

Scratch that. I found what it means. How do you get rid of it? I've read its built in.
[Nexus One General] karnovaran:
Just get (and donate to) cyanogenmod and never worry again :cool:
[Nexus One General] andreitu:
I have to say...

THANK YOU, OP!

Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...

I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!
[Nexus One General] ruthlesset:
Actually I ordered mine engraved and it shipped the same day. Suppose to be delivered today :).

I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.
[Nexus One General] Gr8gorilla:
And to fill that final need.......

go and download dildroid just google it. Now your phone can handle anything, no really, I mean anything!
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:

[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
Huh? Mine doesn't even think about rebooting itself.
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
Glad it helped =)

Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.

Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.

Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
:D:D

I have my wife for those "special moments" :D

But yeah, people, get your mind out of the gutter!
[Nexus One General] andreitu:
Lauged so hard I cried hahaha awesome!

Nah I was thinking something like:

Andrei + Kat

2009.07.15

Or something that would make the "wife" happy. I have to be careful what I engrave otherwise I'll get the cold treatment XD.

Oh well
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
Hehe. My name is Andrei as well actually =)

I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.

Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.

If Adobe would hurry and release the fully gpu accelerated flash player for this phone, I'd give it a 10 out of 10.

Seriously! The ipad / iphone guys are crying so hard about wanting html 5 everywhere because they're not allowed to have flash.. I worry that Adobe's missed the boat on this one.

Yes or No? I have remote controller and while it works good, it doesnt recognize the slide keyboard, idk if realvnc or uvnc will, but they're more universal and all my machines already have uvnc on them
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mstevens:
Are you talking about a viewer/client or a server on your phone?

RealVNC's website says they have a WM viewer, but there don't seem to be any links to it and it appears to be a commercial product. I don't see any evidence that UltraVNC make a WM viewer.

There are a couple of fully workable free viewers around. Search for vnc-E4_2_7b4-arm_pocketpc_viewer or check out http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
I've been making a couple posts about UltraVNC mobile over at their website, but I doubt any of the developers really have a Windows Mobile phone to mess around with it. I have the RealVNC one, pre-paid-app version. It seems to be the best. I wish UltraVNC did develop a mobile version because I can't view my secondary monitor on the VNC viewer I'm using now.

Also, just as a note, there are VNC servers out there for your phone so you can use a VNC viewer on your PC to control your phone, but I haven't found one that was always stable. This one seems to be the best bet, but now it's a paid-app.

[Nexus One Accessories] vexingv:
I had installed a full body BSE skin on my N1, but had to systematically remove pieces so as to allow proper docking with the official desktop dock (I eventually removed all skins but those covering the screen and the battery cover). For the time being, I've been using the neoprene sleeve, but I'm looking at cases that allows for easy removal and installation as I plan to use the dock nightly. Keep in mind that I still have screen protector and battery cover skin.

So far, the Seidio Innocase seems to be one of the best N1 cases on the market (probably second to Case Mate's Tough case). However, I've read that installation/removal of the case can be difficult if a screen protector is present. My other considerations are either the Snap model or Case-Mate's Barely There model which appear fairly similar. Again, how easy is it to remove the case? Would I be better served with a silicone case for ease of repeated removal and installation (but contend with lint/dust issues?)?

Thanks.
[Nexus One Accessories] djpingpong:
I am using a case I got off eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-CRYSTAL-S...Accessories?hash=item35a8082fc6#ht_3878wt_799

It's the exact same one as the one on ultra-case.com but half the price. I'm just assuming Ultra just buys it from the same wholeseller and just repackages it.

I don't use a dock but I'm a Tmo rep and I usually when I get myTouch customers I'll put the HTC_IME keyboard on for them so I do have to take everything off to access the SDcard. I've been really satisfied with it as it is a gel case but doesn't feel cheap like the cases at my store :p and it is very easy to remove.

hm, a skin protector for the screen or a car charger?
[Nexus One Accessories] grb:
I've got a BSE skin on mine and the desktop dock works fine. I was a bit worried, cause I didn't get the skin on perfect.

You have to be patient when you place your phone in the dock, sometimes it takes 5 or 10 seconds to realize where it's at, then another 5-10 secs for the bluetooth to kick in. I can live with that.
[Nexus One Accessories] Altercation:
I use the Case-Mate Nexus One ID Credit Card Case (can't post a link here with new account, but it's on the case mate site).

Love, love, love the case. Pops off pretty quickly at night. I keep two cards in it (driver's license and credit card) and a folded $50 tucked inside between the phone and license. So nice to just grab the phone and my keys...

I do wish I could keep it on when docking. I'm not super happy with my N1 dock as is since my phone seems to slip out of it easily, annoying my wife when it clatters to the table top.
[Nexus One Accessories] chesh420:
I use the Seidio Inoocase II Surface with this dock: http://cgi.ebay.com/Dual-Desktop-Ch...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item35a8350959

I like this dock a lot more the Google's due to the fact that it has the microUSB plug in the bottom, which holds the phone upright. I had the official dock from Google and ended up calling HTC 15 mins after I opened it to return it. I hated (*hated*) how the phone sat in the dock but had nothing to stop it from tipping out. The nice thing about this combo is the dock has both wall-power charging or USB charging. Can also leave it plugged into the wall and the USB and use ADB on your computer while charging the phone and an extra battery. I dunno, if you don't need the bluetooth connection with a dock that's attached to your stereo system, save yourself $40 and order the knock-off from Ebay.
[Nexus One Accessories] vexingv:
i notice that now even with most of skin removed that it takes a couple of seconds to recognize. however, with the skin installed, the phone would make initial contact and then slip/slide off the electrodes (i essentially had to hold the phone in place; thus i removed it).

since i invested in the dock, i'm sticking with it. i had considered the knockoffs when i was using my HTC Fuze, but the quality didn't seem all there.

my concerns with a new case is whether it holds up to repeated removal/installation and whether it scratches the phone/screen protector in the process. i assume that the gel/silicone cases, like that by Ultra/Cimo, are installed by putting the phone through the main display cutout? how does the Seidio Snap compare to the Case-Mate Barely; they seem pretty similar?
[Nexus One Accessories] kpjimmy:
I use a customized zaggskin and that works fine in the OEM dock. Doesn't slide off or anything. My guess was that the BSE (which i initially had but I put on horribly) would be thinner than my current zaggskin.
