I'm going to try that audio hack later tonight, haven't had the chance to yet but I think it will make me at peace. And yeah it's true that Sony kept to the trend and effed up yet again another flagship release.

I just want a touch with great RF and speakers. Motorola did it, but it included the slideout which I didn't want.
[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
You're brave people in this forum don't like to be told he phone has issues, I was too afraid to even read the responses yet. It's one of the best phones available but I know exactly what you mean. People here don't like this for some reason but its ok to admit that android and specifically the nexus is meant to compete with the iPhone. And so the comparisons logically follow !nd that's a good thing.

The iPhone is Michael Jordan, it changed the game and that's good for us because its really the only competition for Android in my opinion. The iPhone (should) bring the best out of Android.

But I too am frustrated that Android didn't look at the things that work on the main phone its competing with because the nexus really should have a keyboard, touchscreen and browser on par with the iPhone since it came out long after the iPhone. I wish to whichever god is the right one that I had never used the iPhone because I wouldn't realize how different the touchscreens are. It's not that the nexus one is bad its just that it could've been SO SO much better and its doubly frustrating that it came out so long after the iPhone, why not at least aim for iPhone quality? Also, The iPhone is ever so slightly wider and uses a thick keys like system, easy characteristics that make its keyboard substantially better. But with the HTC IME once you get used to it its actually almost adequate.

But be patient because, although I've ranted about wanting Android to fix the vast amount of issues ASAP it looks like Android is more concerned with putting out froyo that's supposed to be the last major update before Android focuses on updates defragmenting its OS. So wait and see what froyo has to offer, im confident and excited about it and I'm as hard on Android and the nexus oneas anyone here.
[Nexus One General] bobdude5:
I doubt you have a defective unit..you are being a LITTLE picky but those problems are there

ya but see thats a software issue which can be fixed by jailbreaking the iphone..i had full multitasking on my iphone and it worked perfectly..the hardware on the iphone was flawless for me

the touch screen was PERFECT it supported TRUE multitouch because apple put a proper touchscreen in their phone unlike htcs descion to put a 3 year old glitchy touch screen on their "superphone". Its not glitchy for normal use but for mulitouch is SUCKS. I loved the games on my iphone and controls that were implemented but i cant have them because htc is cheap

altough my g1 and magic had a 3.2mp camera and my iphone had 2.0, the iphone took much better pictures than my htc devices, it didnt have to be bright sunny day to not get a dark picture.

so pretty much android is great htc is cheap. I dont know what happened with the speaker this time because my g1 and mytouch were pretty damn loud, but the touch screen is really annoying. Hopefully they have a better touch screen on the evo4g clearpad 3000 please :(

When threads like this come around, why do we post in them (I'm being hypocritical of of course), he thinks the iphone (and the Droid I guess) is more superior than this phone, and then everyone in the forum must take out little tidbits of his post and try to convine him otherwise or prove him wrong - which I believe is completely pointless.

Let the guy go on to the next phone, I mean who cares lol

None of these issues are pressent on my phone anyways, I don't use the speaker - I use headphones, my signal is great, my touch screen is great, really everything is simply great. Honestly to me the sole purpose of these threads are to try and make the members of forums mad or shaken up, because lots of people in the Android community get rather irritated when you compare these phones to the iphone. Though they are meant to compete with it - people seem to praise the device to a point that is inhumane.

Really Steve did a good job making little iMinions.
[Nexus One General] DigitaL BlisS:
Exactly. It's even worse imagining an iPhone running on android. You would truly have the best of both worlds. But instead you have to settle for one or the other which both have their drawbacks... I'm interested to see what Apple decides to introduce this summer, especially if they decide to unlock multitasking to fight off android.

I've always been a fan of Google. With that being said, I'll be looking forward to their next update, but HTC better consider updating a few things... And the reason why I say HTC is because they seem to be Googles main advocate. Perhaps instead of releasing 20 devices a year they should step back and put some $ into R&D and make fewer, but more perfected devices. I hope things change after froyo, and that Google stops playing games in terms of their phones (getting HTC to make them).

That's the conclusion I'm drawing to as well. I was initially surprised at the build quality of the N1, as it was an enormous step up from the G1, Magic and Dream, but it seems the internals (speakers, radio placement, etc) are still lacking as well as the touchscreen (in comparison to the iPhone). They should have included the clearpad 3000 to begin with, that's what's driving me crazy. Seems they cheaped out on us... to cut down on costs or whatever the excuse was, because didn't that tech surface last summer? I'm curious to see how the clearpad 3000 matches up to the 3 year old Apple touchscreen tech... Then again it's some moderately small company (Synaptics) vs. the monstrous Apple, so I'm not holding my breath. But will try to be optimistic about it. HTC should focus on building high end device because it seems they're just aiming for the mid end and hoping android will sell their devices... at least that's what it seems like to me.
[Nexus One General] DigitaL BlisS:
I'm not trying to shake anyone up. If you enjoy your phone, all the power to you, honestly... And LOL at you calling me an Apple fanboi, I haven't used an iPhone in 6 months. The reason I'm comparing certain aspects of this phone to it is because they've done something right. I seriously hate Apple, Steve Jobs and his black turtlenecks... but if I want a touch phone that's reliable, I'd go with the iPhone, hands down. The only reason why I'm posting this is 'cause I'm so distraught at how this phone could have been IT, but it was another miss... And at this point in the game it's starting to get sad. I'm still laughing at you calling me an iMinion. I've owned 3 BBs, 3 HTCs, 2 iPhones and almost forgot the N97 all within the past year... and I hate all of them. Still waiting for THAT phone. If the iPhone had great RF and speakers, I'd love it. Same with regards to the Droid (even more so) but they are a few steps behind to make that happen.

EDIT:

Anyway, this wasn't the discussion I was trying to spark, far from it. Was hoping for some possible ROM remedies to some of my issues more than anything (mostly being the max volume for everything on the damn phone that makes sound). RF I don't have a big problem with considering the area I'm in is fantastic, and the touchscreen I'll have to suck up and get used to. Perhaps try that swype KB?
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
If the iPhone is MJ then it'd be easy to say the Nexus One is Lebron James... but since Google doesnt advertise the N1 much then I'd say its more like Kevin Durant (current best player who doesnt get much attention) ;)
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
I wasn't calling you an iMinion (though I could've been fooled), I was calling PEOPLE iMinions, because it has been irritating hearing so much of the 'revolutionary' iPhone. Please, I really don't need your phone history.

I guess the love of the phone has just gotten to my head, because I just don't see what the problem is with this phone, and how so many people don't seem to be satisfied. And then they all have to go online and complain as if this phone is simply horrible. Like it doesnt even stand a chance against the iGod, and should be shoved aside until Apple's new invention.

Maybe because I'm simply not having problems, I don't expect anyone else to be having any either. Though, that is an unreal expectation.

oh it definatley stands a chance even leo laporte dropped his iphone for a nexus one...but it just doesnt have a "superphone" quality touchscreen when it comes to multitouch when its supposed to be leader in TOUCHSCREEN phones...android kicks iphone os' ass anyday lol

i love my nexus one with all my heart and i would NEVER EVER trade it for an iphone but im just annoyed at htcs decision in touchscreens
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
About the ringtone speaker:

When seeing the N1 and Desire with back-cover off it seems the speakers are similar, Desire owners are saying the speaker is very loud but over 70% the speaker loose quality and is too trebel oriented.

Could HTC used the same hardware but cranked up the speaker driver to have 30-40% more loudness?

Could this mean the Desire ROM can do the same with N1's speaker???
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klub242:
Right now I have the cyanogen rom on my at&t nexus one. I'm thinking about trying a different rom (modaco), but have a couple of questions.

Does wiping erase things like music off my memory card?

Is there an easy way to restore the apps I already have installed (and how)?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
1) It does not touch the FAT32 partition on your SD card, EXT4 (if you use apps2sd) yes

2) titanium backup. however only the pay version has the one click restore feature.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
I just got a 16gb class 2 memory card but it only shows that I only have 200mb. I've tried format the card but it isn't showing anything different. I've tried FAT and FAT32. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zmk76:
It's probably a fake. Where did you get it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
I got it from ebay but when I first used it it was fine. Now I can't even see it show up on my computer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zmk76:
Have you tried rebooting pc? If I do the safe to remove hardware , and then put my card back in it doesn't read....until I reboot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
Ok, I've tried rebooting pc and putting it back in it still doesn't recognize it. Weird thing is is I can put it in my Mac and it reads it fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zmk76:
That is weird. Sorry I can't be of more help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
Is it possible that I may have deleted the partition on the SD Card that needs to be there in order for it to work? when I go into recovery and try to flash zip from it it tells me that it cannot mount the sd card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gmramirez1973:
You said you tried formatting. Did you try formatting on your pc or mac?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
I've tried on both and nothing is working
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
I will get the error message from when in recovery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gmramirez1973:
I had the same problem when I partition my card using recovery 1.5.2. I had a 8gb card but it only show 3gb when put it on my pc. I used http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/ to fix it. Maybe it will help you. :)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknee:
I have had similar failures with generic memory cards (mine came from Hong Kong and were real looking fakes).

You may be able to repartition the card using a program called Paragon Manager in Windows (note sure if you can get this legitimately free).

Here is a great article from overclockers.com about spotting fakes and what to expect from them (click here):

Fake Memory Cards

From OCAU Wiki

Purpose

As fake memory cards have now proliferated throughout the marketplace, it is important to be able to spot a fake. This page includes methods to spot fakes, and examples of fake cards.

Why should you care?

Inferior quality card - you're not getting what you paid for

No warranty - when the card fails, you're out of luck

Fake cards sometimes have invalid partition sizes, making it likely to fail

It will drive costs of genuine cards up

Spotting a fake

A program called H2testw 1.4 has been written (thanks to German writer Herald Bögeholz and c’t Magazin für Computertechnik) which correctly analyzes and reports a flash drive's true size capacity; letting you know it is a fake.

If you don't believe that, read this article at http://sosfakeflash.wordpress.com/2...standard-in-detecting-usb-counterfeit-drives/

This make life a bit easier!

Presentation quality and differences

First thing to look for is poorly printed labels and material; most fake cards have slight differences from the real deal. Most manufacturers have a page where you can download high resolution pictures of their cards. Below is a list of manufacturer image page links:

Sandisk

Sony

Olympus

Example of fake 1GB Sandisk SD Card

(Click here for high resolution image)

This particular card was also missing a notch, making it quite easy to spot:

Hi all

I have flashed DamageTrev ROM.

It is going great... NOW

But I had to do a lot of flashing to fix my PRI issue..

I found out I could not restore any of my past nandroid backups!

In the recovery bootscreen .. I can start the restoring but then it would error out very quickly .

I will need to have faith in nandroid if I want to do more flashing!

Anybody have any suggestions on how to fix ?
[Hero CDMA General] Avalaunchmods:
sounds like bad sd card or it is going bad. take everything off of it, partition it, then put it back see if that works
[Hero CDMA General] G1ForFun:
Ive had this happen to but it usually says to type something in console instead and it usually works for me....try again and see if it gives you the console command...if not then its prob what the above said.
[Hero CDMA General] richse:
What does the error say? Does it mention running nandroid-mobile.sh from ADB? If that is the case you can still restore the backups. This happened to me and I just had to do it once from ADB and then it worked from recovery again.
[Hero CDMA General] ImmortalLuD:
Whenever mine does that, I plug in the USB cable and just try to restore one more time, and it works. Kind of odd...
[Hero CDMA General] looneylu:
When this has happened to me, I've take all the back ups out of my nandroid folder and left them on the computer leaving only the one I want to restore

just download the tar file and use 7zip to extract the widgets out and place them on your sd card. Then install them with astro.
