[HD2 General] starstreak:
I picked it up at the local T-Mobile store. Got there an hour b4 it opened. Long line. They got in 15.

1) Before I call T-Mobile, anybody know why that if I BOUGHT the phone outright, they wouldn't allow me to get my business discount unless I choose 2 year contract and pay the higher rate for the services like I didn't buy the phone? Btw, I am a new T-Mobile customer. I quit them over a year ago for no 3g and spotty coverage.

2) Is there a way to have the Weather on the mainscreen the one that uses gps to locate my weather? I noticed I can't choose my city in Hawaii (Only Honolulu) yet when the GPS version picks me up, I get my actual home town name, and I want that, but under the time.

3) For those wondering, I did get my Jabra headset to pair and I can say things like "What time is it" from the headset. I forgot to check if it'll tell me what number is calling when a call comes in tho.

4) I tried to install Skyfire, but after it downloaded, I couldn't install it. Weird. After trying like 15minutes, I got it to install. But I swear I didn't do anything different.

**Major downer**

5) 3G isn't as good as I was hoping so far. I tried going to many places I goto and about half of them will loose 3G and goto Edge. Edge is at least 50-100% full so not so bad except I loose the ability to use googlemap and get a phone call.

I noticed it might have 1-2bars for 3g, then it'll switch to Edge. Is there a way to tell it NOT to switch to edge so quickly? I swear even 1-2 bars on 3G is faster than Edge.

6) GPS worked out of the box. Unlike my TouchPro,which takes anywhere from 10seconds-10minutes on a cold start. SO far, I get gps in less than a minute. But I guess most of those would be warm starting now.

7) New power cable. Can't use my old Touch Pro power cable.

8) Comes with flashlight. Sweet. 3 brightness levels.
[HD2 General] skylinepigeon:
1. I know my discount only applies to monthly bills.

5. why can't you google maps and phone calls? that is odd.
[HD2 General] starstreak:
It's monthly bills too. But tmobile said I needed a 2yr contract. Made no sense since the only reason for the contracts is to pay for the phones. (per TMobile)

When on Edge, you loose teh ability to use phone+Data at the same time. 3G allows both, but since 3G keeps changing to Edge in my areas, I loose the ability to surf and talk. And I can see how that can cause some trouble.
[HD2 General] starstreak:
Just installed my Pocket Informant 9. Hmm... Doesn't intergrate into HTC Sense. Never thought about that. The sense calender is nice,but I like how PI9 calender displays words "9am-2pm Doctors" in the calender view. And while I didn't try the sense version of inputing personal data, it seemed" like it was missing some that the PI9 has in its version. I could be wrong...

Did anybody try and install the cabs for more "info" for the lock screen and the main screen to show more than one calender event on the T-Mobile version of the HD2 yet?
[HD2 General] starstreak:
ok, tested my Jawbone Prime. AUGH.

OK, MSVC (Microsoft Voice Command) works. BUT it doesn't tell me whos calling in my BT device. What I hear is a ring sound in my ear, and the phone tells me who's calling. Even if I have it set to vibrate, and it'll still talk on the phone speakers.

I got the weather to show the one with the GPS on my main window. Forgot which screen I was in, but it finally allowed me to pick the GPS version for my main screen.

I wonder if battery will die faster now. 8 hours a day I'm indoors and gps won't pickup. I have it set to check once an hour. I wonder if the gps searching will kill the units battery?
[Nexus One General] zc2:
I've just received my complimentary Nexus One from Google, and I'd be so happy if only one thing - WiFi does not work at all.

I tried to install this update to ERE27, but it did not help much. Actually it helped a little, before the update the phone just did reboot on an attempt to turn on the WiFi, now it does nothing (just saying "Turning on..."). Any ideas?

I can't believe Google sends out broken devices for free just to get rid of defective ones... :(
[Nexus One General] tribalmunky:
Did you go into the phone settings' wireless and networks menu? (main screen -> menu button -> Wireless and networks)

If you look in Wifi settings you should see all the broadcasted SSID's. If not, then you may have an issue afterall.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Oh wow. Wow. You're the only person to have had the same bad luck as I have...

Your phone is f~cked.

Send it back.

Sorry to tell you this. But hey at least I know what you're going through.

And you're lucky I saw this thread, as we're probably the only two people in the world to ever have this issue.

Luckily, I sent it back for a refund and it works great. To be honest, I was STRONGLY considering just sending it back for a refund instead of a swap and sticking with my G1 (man that would have sucked).

I am so glad I did a swap, and DAMN I love this phone. Haven't looked back since.
[Nexus One General] joshuapurcell:
Nope, you guys aren't the only one who had wifi problems. My wifi wouldn't function at all on my first Nexus One... had to send it back for a new one and the second worked like a charm.

[Nexus One General] zc2:
repair required

Thank you, guys, for responses.

I've called HTC and requested the repair.

Unfortunately, because it's complementary they do not send a new phone for replace, I have to send my broken one for repair.
[Nexus One General] zc2:
Got it back from HTC today. They replaced it with a different phone, so probably that broken WiFi was not repairable. I hope everything works now.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Wow that was fast. I had to wait 10 days I believe (excruciatingly long days).

So... how does it work?
[Nexus One General] zc2:
Thanks for asking, wifi works fine. I'm writing from it now. And it seems the trackball did not work property on that broken one too. I wonder the other people who got a free N1 from Google, have same crap?
[Nexus One General] David Horn:
Sometimes I wonder why Google even bothers doing the device giveaway when miserable sods like you accuse them of sending out "crap". You don't like your free phone? Send it back, buy another one.

For crying out loud - everyone else in the program is exceptionally grateful and all you can do is whinge about it.
[Nexus One General] zc2:
Like I said in the original post, I'm happy, and I thank Google and great and swift HTC service in my blog and everything else.

I'm sorry for using bad words because my English is way not perfect and I just meant not that what you thought.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Grats, and enjoy!

How did you get your free N1 btw?

App with 5000+ downloads?
[Nexus One General] zc2:

Yes, because of my application (Ghost Commander).

Hi there...

I've found out that it's possible to track the touch2 (Mega) by GPS is case the phone is stolen, even if the sim card is changed.

Can you please tell me or put here some good and free software?

Thanks
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] Weznezz:
have a look at Tricker Tracker ;)
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] secosan:
My phone from microsoft does that.

Also, google maps with a latitude account shared with a good friend can do that too.

My phone can be scheduled to do updates, google maps will have to be started by the one that steals it.
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] LtBlue:
i'm interested in this too ? anybody want to add some features like this and cook them to a ROM ... it'll be really nice if my phone got jacked and i can track it ... i dont think google maps and Latitude will work in case the phone is stolen ... they'll turn it on at least 2-3 days after the jack and will sell it with minor usage ...
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] rvrosa:
Yesterday I've tried the RemoteTracker software... all OK apart from toasted all my credit on SMSs to the phone number I've indicated do be the one to receive alerts...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] incucrash:
So I have Slacker, it's ok but it's real limited and mainstream, but so far the best..

I have Pandora, but the quality is horrible for me..

I have Kinoma Freeplay but not sure how to use it, i been doing shoutcast with it but alot of stuff seems like it wants you to buy....

Heard that WunderRadio is incredible?

Just looking for 2 cents, prefer to not pay, especially of a subscription fee.... How are the mainstream radios? *XM, etc..*

Mostly I'm looking for the benefits of Pandora say on the IPhone (You can increase quality mostly) but, I would like a radio with custom stations, wide selections,

Also, does anyone know of a good server, shoutcast which plays good hip hop like Talib Kweli, Common, The Roots, Mos Def, and then some stuff I used to like in the rock/alternative field like Incubus, Godsmack, 311, Sevendust...just a few to narrow it down..

[EVO 4G General] unknown_owner:
T-Mobile USA are offering their HD2 on an Even More plan for $199.99 ($250 online discount), or a contract-free Even More Plus plan for $449.99. Here's an article about it:

T-mobile HTC HD2

This is good news because I don't think the EVO will be priced higher than this phone. So far windows mobile phones are priced higher than android phones (coming the HTC hero phones and the touch pro2, or you can compare the samsung moment with the touch pro2)
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I would LOVE a $450 price point. I heard someone talking $700-800, and I thought that was absolutely ridiculous. $450-550 sounds like the sweet spot.
[EVO 4G General] ZUUL42:
That's actually not a bad price. The Nexus One w/o a contact is $529.00. So, by the time you get through your new contract discount and web special discount and mail in rebate it's in a very reasonable price bracket.
[EVO 4G General] Babyface1249:
You hope the Evo is priced lower? I'm sure everyone wishes it would just be free, but it isn't realistic. The Evo is similar to an HD2 but with amped up camera, WiMAX capable, front facing cam, and of course android. Why would a far superior phone be priced lower? Would a supercharged v8 mustang be cheaper than the v6? Hells no.

at wal-mart here in lynchburg, VA it is only $149 w/ contract. W/o it cost me $525 incl taxes etc.

This will replace the Android 1.6 Calendar and Calendar Widget with dark versions.

Instructions:

1.)Download to /sdcard Black Calendar With Blue Widget[/color]

If you are happy with the blue widget, go to step 3, otherwise go to step 2.

2.)Download to /sdcard your desired widget color:

Black Calendar Widget

Green Calendar Widget

Red Calendar Widget

Purple Calendar Widget

Yellow Calendar Widget

3.)Boot to recovery and flash first Black_Calendar_With_Widget.zip, then without reboot, flash the Black<Color>_CalendarWidget.zip (if you downloaded a colored widget).

4.)Reboot.
[G1 Apps and Games] OG:
Is the Widget Black?
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
Not yet, that is actually another apk. It is in the works though.
[G1 Apps and Games] OG:
Ohoh ight that's cool. So we can't use this to replace the regular Google Calender? And does this app Sync with Google?
[G1 Apps and Games] JAguirre1231:
It IS the google calendar, he's just saying the widget is found in an apk other than this one
[G1 Apps and Games] OG:
Okaaaaaaaaaay!!! So were you able to get the goods?
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
It is up (with the widget).
[G1 Apps and Games] OG:
How do we go about Flashing this? And nice work man real good I like it.

EDIT: And loll noo I was asking JAG if he got the goods. Loll sorry bout the misunderstanding, thanks anyway.
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
Just flash from recovery like any update.
[G1 Apps and Games] JAguirre1231:
I seem to be missing the zip, this should be .4 but the only download I see is for .3 (on the website)
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
This is just the calendar, not my ROM.
[G1 Apps and Games] shadowch31:
Beautiful work fella, well done been wanting something like this for awhile.

Mind if I post a link in Darkstars thread? This would work damn well with it :)
[G1 Apps and Games] JAguirre1231:
No, I was looking at the theme thread (and it points to your website), and all I can get is .3 (may be just me though... I am me after all ;))

edit: Seems to be fixed now
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
I have no problem with that or with any themers including it in their themes.
[G1 Apps and Games] shadowch31:
I didn't think you would but always nice to be asked ;)

Thanks again fella.
[G1 Apps and Games] bubonik:
Have you tried making the blue header on the widget black?

Would editing "appwidget_calendar_bgtop_blue.9.png" to black achieve what I am after?
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
That would be quite simple, I kept it blue because me theme is black and blue. The file is in res/drawable in CalendarProvider.apk. If you cannot edit .9.pngs, let me know and I will do this in black.
[G1 Apps and Games] bubonik:
That would be greatly appreciated.
[G1 Apps and Games] SuperDave81:
The calendar looks nice, it's a little dark though and you cant see the current day's date (black on black).
[G1 Apps and Games] MotoMudder77:
Flashed from recovery. phone hangs after bootscreen.
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
Which ROM? Still on fastest?
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
I added 5 colored widgets with instructions. I did not color the calendar, as that is easy enough to do with metamorph if so desired.
[G1 Apps and Games] MotoMudder77:
Yea, sticking with it for a while. Forgot to backup, for the 1st time, had to reflash ROM.

not sure what the deal was, battery's dwindling right now, so probably play around with it tomorrow see if I can figure it out
[G1 Apps and Games] cloverdale:
It is possible this requires Cyanogen's framework, as I did compile from his tree. But it just does not seem as if it would be required. You can also try pushing the apk itself to /system/app
[G1 Apps and Games] bubonik:
Thanks for the colorful updates. If you get ambitious... a glossy widget would look pretty cool.

Using it and loving it.

Will there be a nexus cdma subforum when it is released for sprint? Also if others are interested. I spoke with a sprint rep using the chat feature on the sprint web site. I had read on their release about the nexus that it has to be purchased through google. So I asked if we would be able to use our upgrade rebates and his response was:

"Once the pricing will be declared for this phone, we could be able to help you with upgrade rebates."
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kid Poker:
Haven't seen or heard the Nexus on Sprint. If so, they would have to redo everything into CDMA instead of GSM. As of now, I've heard of it going to Verizon and Vodafone

It took about two months for the nexus to show up on att after showing up on t-mobile.

Expect the same time frame after it's available on verizon for it to show up on sprint.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineXVI:
Er, they already have. Verizon is CDMA. Android already supports it, and they need only swap the QSD8250 for the QSD8650 and a few GSM parts for their CDMA equivalents.

It won't be nearly as long (for technical reasons, anyway) between VZW and Sprint since they share frequencies.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jz9833:
if I were you and I already had sprint I'd wait for the HTC Evo 4G.

I love my N1, but being this close to the time 4G is available why not wait a couple months?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
True... but if you are willing to wait, then wait for T-mobile to release HSPDA it should br faster than 4G, scheduled to come out this year. :-) Sprint Evo is a great phone, but I think it won't get updates as fast as the nexus one, it being HTCs and not Google.

I think you could have been a tad more vague. ;)

How is it possible that you were able to flash a rom and Hardspl the phone but you are unable to load a cab?

When you replaced the rom all the factory settings for your provider were erased. The cab he pointed to you reinstalls the ATT settings. You will still have to go to the connections box and select what you want your data connection to be.

Ask a proper question and on this site you are likely to get a great and informative response.

Oh, and welcome to XDA. :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eras2r:
The ATT Proxy cabs are for internet explorer. For Opera you need to modify the opera config. To do this point the Opera browser to "opera:config"

Once there, go to the Proxy settings and enable these:

Enable HTTP 1.1 for proxy

HTTP server=wireless.cingular.com

HTTPS server=wireless.cingular.com

Use HTTP

Use HTTPS

Use Proxy On Local Names Check

Save the settings. This will get you access to http://device.home

Unfortunately, Celluar Video will not work as it checks the User Agent, and Opera 10 is not supported through the ATT Proxies. You can try setting a custom User Agent in "opera:config" and set it to something like:

"HTC-ST7377/2.07.401.1 (80303) WWE Opera/9.70 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)"

I have no clue if this will work though.
