Co-Sign

I've had my N1 for about a week, and I had held off on getting one all this time because I was afraid of the issues I had been reading about. IMO, it's been much ado about nothing. My phone only goes Edge when I am conserving battery via 2G/3G widget, no issues with muting on calls, no wonky touchscreen, no cracks from being in my pocket (but I also don't wear skinny jeans), etc. It seems like there is a very loud vocal minority while the rest of us without problems are quietly enjoying our N1s.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faraz1992:
Good to hear from you people.... I'm still waiting from my N1 and this feels like a relief....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
yeah it seems that most people's complaint is that they paid "600 dollars for this phone". while i agree that's a lot of money, i think most people might not be used to buying unlocked phones at full retain price, so they think the phone should be set apart to a higher standard. i've been buying unlocked phones for so many years now, that paying 550 dollars is normal price for most smartphones. most people just buy a new phone on contract, so they get the phone subsidized for about 150 bucks, so they are much less picky about it. but in reality they still paid the same price, its just included over the price of a 2 year contract. at least that's my theory!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
I guess its ok to spend that kind of money and expect problems with a phone. Really value for your buck. Especially when it blocks you from getting calls most times by freezing touch screen and replying to texts. Really $600 phone should have these problems.. I SHALL BUY A NEXT ONE.

this is how I feel:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark5:
Sorry, I just had to revive this old thread for this... You called it. :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eclair~:
Lmao..

That is just, wow..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
omg what a prediction..good find!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haida1:
There ought to be a "Whiners and Complainers" forum for just such an occasion!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
Couldn't agree more.

- Connectivity issues.

- Unreliable as a phone

- sound quality on calls

- fvcked up exchange support (where is OTA Froyo???????)

- sh!tty attitude from Google (here's some buggy software; we promise we will fix it with the next update which might come this year ... or next year, since we don't seem to have any plan)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
That's not how I pictured that playing out. But I'm still not impressed with you Mr. iPhone 4
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
at least it doesn't have built issues like the N1...so be impress about that.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Wow what a thread to catch my eye when I'm due to go to the store in a few hours and buy one of these. :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyper4mance2k:
1) 3G connectivity issue

2) Touch Screen unresponsiveness/sensing incorrect input

5) Lock button response issue

14) Phone mutes when calling people and can only be unmuted by turning mute on then off! (this is annoying as **** happens once a week.)

15) missed call notification trackball does not flash

All these have happened on mine. My unresponsive touch screen and ****ty connection was caused by my GSM receiver shorting and eventually frying the screen as well...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmout:
Could you explain this a bit more? How did you discover this problem?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
Don't - unless they fix ALL these issues (some of which are apparently hardware issues) the phone is really only "meeeeh".

Very disappointing since I was soooooooo exited to get one.

Might I add the warranty situation to the list of issues. With the N1 you void your warranty when you unlock/root, with no way to reset it.

With the iPhone you can always "un-"jailbreak it and return it under full warranty (unless you brick it while flashing which supposedly only one person has managed so far)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark5:
Apple probably saw your post and scraped their current design to start producing the DMaverick50 iPhone. :P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
hahaha. true.

is there any other phone xda with so many problems/threads about problems?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
its not even out yet. you dont know if it has build issues or not.

you obviously dont look around here.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
I did - and I was right!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
That couldn't be more obvious
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
i running pancake rom 1.5 and i noticed today i could not update my profile or my prl settings. it doesn't give me an error but it says "nothing available" for both. this is weird as usually it does something for me. i master reset the phone and reset my MSL as well after i got my code...still no change.

is this normal or what can i do to get this working? i think i have the latest prl btw!

:confused:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
anybody? and yes i searched before asking. i just need to know if this is abnormal behavior. ;)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
Try updating your radio. Fresh has it on his site, just dont do the new 2.1 one, you want the other one he has out. I think its like 1.56.

I did that and I have the proper PRL now. Just reflash it as an update.zip.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
What PRI does your phone say you have?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
prl 60663

pri 1.70_003
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
yeah but can't you brick your phone by doing so?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
That may or may not even fix your issue. You should always see something along the lines of "applying your profile" or whatever when you do the update profile. There isn't always a PRL update so there are times you will get the error that nothing new is available.

Also, you should know that there is a fix for the RUU since you tried to call me out for assisting people (for a small charge) via logmein ;)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
that's the old RUU not a new radio. ;)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
all it does it say it's checking, than says no update available for either. i find this weird. im not running stock, im running a custom 1.5 rom.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
You have the same info as me for PRI/PRL. At a minimum... you're at least current.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
Go to my RUU 1.56 thread and download that nandroid backup, its stock with no root... see if it works?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
okay that's good but if the prl & profile won't update that could be an issue in the near future? any ideas as to what might be wrong? i already reset the MSL today with no luck.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
so it could be the rom im running causing the issues. i know with winmo this used to be a problem with custom roms.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
I agree that its an issue for the future, and if it was me I'd be trying to at least get my profile updating.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
Very much could be, wont know until you try :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
yeah well im not calling sprint as i had a hard time even getting my msl number. they will just have me reset the phone again, i just got the damn thing the way i want it. id hate to have to unroot then start all over.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
if i flash the RUU will i be able to root the phone again?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfbonney:
Make a nandroid backup, download the one from the other post, restore that one and see if it works. Then you can go back to your other backup as soon as its done.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoother2010:
got a link to that fixed RUU? after i run that will i have to root again?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
If it is saying CHECKING and says NO UPDATE AVAILABLE.......Then it is working. You have the proper PRI and PRL.

It's not going to update anything if there isn't one...

You can brick your phone by updating the Radio, but I think more people have bricked it trying to RUU...With a rooted phone, you take that chance with anything that you flash.

Ok so this might be horrrid or... look kinda cool not sure tho.. lol....

Yeah i like the smoke one to...what u said about the power button kinda sucks ...would probably have to turn on trackball wake for myself then =/

[Nexus One Accessories] Noel3903:
I looked at that one ..just want a bit of color in my life...would get the blue red and green one for 5 bucks off that site if they didnt have those damn triangles all over it lol... thx for the link tho

Check this one out its kinda wild i think the edges are hard clear and the back is a blue gummy? not sure kinda wild

[TG01 General] RaiderX303:
i have recently bought a TG01, when i got it it was running the orange WM6.1 rom, it wouldnt detect either my 4GB or 8GB micro sd cards, i had to lend a 1GB card to run the official 6.5 update, now the 4 and 8gb cards are detected but whenever i try to flash a rom i get SD Mount error after it loads the SDDL. anyone know why this would happen and if it could be due to that its been partitioned for use on a hero previously?
[TG01 General] bojan6:
From the beginning we have problem with the cards. You can find more info in (http://www.modaco.com/content/toshi...m/291115/toshiba-tg01-memory-card-corruption/).

Try to format your card and start from 0.

Try to format your card and start from 0. I had this problem but don't remember with witch program I format the sd card. Wen I bought my TG01 it show me just 1GB and the card was 8GB then I find some info that you need to format y our card but I didn't find now where is this info. In the modaco web you can find more info and in google about this.
[TG01 General] RaiderX303:
ive tried formatting it several times, the phone picks up the card fine when in winmo, i just cant flash any roms with it as the SDDL cant mount it.
[TG01 General] bojan6:
To format your card use (“sdfv2000.exe”) I uploaded for you. Try it if not working I have an other solution.
[TG01 General] Kilihari:
Same Issue.

I have been having the same issue since day 1. Has driven me insane with program's icons that are loaded up on the sd card not showing up properly in the start menu, they always have a blank icon on them. Has really driven me crazy. Has anyone found a solution to this?
[TG01 General] -PiLoT-:
try and use sddl+ to flash the rom instead of just sddl
[TG01 General] Kilihari:
Already did that.

Thank you for your advice however I already tried that potential solution and many different roms and radios, I tried formatting my SD card with the Panasonic sd card format utility, but no luck. Would getting a class 10 Kingston card be a smart idea? Or maybe I need to buy a slower Transflash card? I have a 4GB Class 6 from SanDisk but the same error occurs. Do I and the other people have defective phones, or is this an issue that can be solved? What should I do?

-Kilihari
[TG01 General] Mangasora:
I've never had a problem with SD Card. Now I bought a 16GB Kingston Class 10. I have no problem with the card, work properly.
[TG01 General] Kilihari:
Getting a class 10.

Tell ya what, I will get the class 10 cuz more space is always good, I will let everyone know if it has solved the problem. Before I do this, I am just going to buy an el-cheapo class nothing sd card and see if the same problem occurs and then I will have tested the range so to speak. I will report anything interesting.
[TG01 General] Pere:
Do you format FAT or FAT32?
[TG01 General] Kilihari:
To FAT or not to FAT

Well.. I am actually FAT76KGz.... but ehhehe.. OH the sdcard :D I Am so funny!

The sd card is fat 32. HMMM.. Maybe I should try fat 16.... ?

Hello. I fount, that I can serve the media content from android phone through Twonky server to my PC. But I want retrograde app - the android DNLA media CLIENT - to play the streamed video or audio on my Android phone - from my PC media library.

Any idea?

Thanx!!!

rooomish
[Android Apps and Games] babblerx:
I don't know much about Android...

...but I'm interested in getting an android phone, probably the HTC Desire.

Can't you just link your phone into your home network, like I've done with my WM6.5 phone? That way, you can just browse to the relevant media folder on your network from your phone and play the file via the relevant app on your phone. I do that for video and music on my WM phone.

Or does Android not allow you to link into a PC network?
[Android Apps and Games] guyndalf:
Linking to a PC network over SMB/CIFS is not straightforward AFAIK:

You can browse and copy files with applications such as ES File Explorer, but that is not integrated into the file system for all applications. And You can use xyflash to stream from the network using certain protocols such as http and ftp, but not in a very user friendly way.

I'd love to see something being able to browse and stream using DNLA/UPNP or mount a SMB path in the android file system, but I haven't seen it yet. Though the latter may be possible if you device is rooted, I haven't checked that out...
[Android Apps and Games] benmyers2941:
Are you looking for something like AndroMote, or to go the other way around?

[Android Apps and Games] sh500:
Just saw this post; I've been using this for a while (originally just to test it) it works well with my Buffalo Linkstation's Media server.
[Android Apps and Games] rooomish:
As I can see, there is no news about video dnla app client - only audio is possible now :/
[Android Apps and Games] JasonMeudt:
Not necessarily.... If you have a UPnP server on your PC (TVersity, Playon, etc...) you can use PlugPlayer (plugplayer . com) as your client...
[Android Apps and Games] gdodinet:
I've spent some time recently to look for a UPnP stack solution for android, so perhaps my exploration can be of use.

I found out that EyeconTroller is a nice media renderer. I only tested audio but EyeconTroller is supposed to handle videos as well.

I've tested it with two android devices: the first one runs iMediashare (media server), the second one runs EML UPnP-AV Controlpoint to act as a remote controller, and EyeconTroller runs on both devices. Using EML I was able to stream from iMediashare to EyeconTroller on both devices.

Next step is to stream from my linux box, but i don't expect any issue here (granted it is on the same subnet, which it is not for now), considering that EML discovered the iMediashare and all EyeconTroller instances without problem.

Note that for now EyeconTroller is free but might not always be (see eyecontec site).

[Touch HD General] Hookani:
Hi all,

Got a question/problem. I have my HD set up to receive email thru an exchange server but only to get the email. I still want to sync my contacts, calendar, etc. with the info in my desktop outlook. In the activesync window it shows microsoft exchange with email, and windows PC with contacts, calendar, notes and files but it doesn't seem to sync the info with the PC and only the exchange server. Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Touch HD General] namwollem:
Exchange

If you run Activesync, then select MENU, then OPTIONS, you should find a page where it details which type of information is sync'd, and with what device. You can then UNtick the items you don't want to sync with your Exchange Server, and tick which items you DO want to sync with your PC!

I'm not by any means an expert on Exchange Server, or ActiveSync, but I have something similar setup on my HTC Trinity.
[Touch HD General] Hookani:
That's the problem. I have only email checked in the exchange section and have the calendar and contacts and notes checked in the PC section but it seems to ignore the PC section selections and syncs all the exchange stuff even though it's unchecked.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Touch HD General] Hookani:
The other problem is that when I set up the exchange sever and hooked it up to my computer, it deleted all the contacts, calendar and notes in my device. So now I'm trying to figure out how to get all that info back on my device and still use exchange to get my email.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Touch HD General] namwollem:
Hmmm! A tricky one! Just to test this, I setup my HD to sync email only with my companies Exchange server, and it synced quite happily, and didnt delete any other data (contacts etc.), which are still set to sync with my Laptop. I then tried a sync with Laptop and it synced those items (contacts and calender) and gave me no problems at all. (The only thing it DID do was enforce my companies security policy on the HD - which is an enforced PIN entry every hour of non-use. This is easily overriden by a Registry Hack anyway).

So to answer your question, I am afraid I do not now why you are sufferring this problem, as I cannot get it to occur on my HD - perhaps there are differences in the ROM you might be using - my Radio and ROM version details are contained in my signature (below) -- are yours the same?!
[Touch HD General] Hookani:
it is weird. I've gone so far as to delete the exchange server, delete the device and try to set up the partnership again and I still can't get my contacts and calendar back into the device. The exchange calendar items still remain on my device and no contacts.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Touch HD General] Hookani:
I am right to assume you also have exchange mail set up on your laptop too? I have an exchange account set up on my laptop to get mail from the exchange server also.

I got my contacts and calendar back on my device, but I had to delete the exchange account on my laptop.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Trypticon:
I've been reading the Rhodium forums and searching on the topic. Now I'm interested in knowing which screen rotation software everyone prefers and why.

I'm currently on TMO US running a stock unbranded WM6.1 ROM version 1.19.401.1 (51489) WWE. I use the default WM today, I've never liked Manilla, Sense, Titanium or TF3D for that matter. So with my setup I'm getting great speed/performace and I only use about 28% of my memory with no apps running.

For basic screen rotation across a variety of apps (Opera 9.5, PIE, Slacker, ArcSoft, etc.) which program does everyone like considering, ease of use, stability, performance, and memory usage? I've messed around with change screen a little but that was on a 6.5 ROM, and I haven't really bothered with Gyrator since last year.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sanjsrik:
I use changescreen because it didn't load up and then have to be "hidden" it seemed a one-time setup and you forget about it. It doesn't crash, works as expected, and I've never had an issue with it on my Sprint TP2 once it's been installed.

And, I'm using the Sprint Stock ROM WM6.5
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Trypticon:
Thanks, thats the type of info I am looking for. TBH I was leaning toward Change Screen for the same reasons. However it's been a while since I played with Gyrator, so I was wondering if it had changed at all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] jcterry:
I have been using Change Screen for about a week now and it is my preference. I didn't like that Gyrator had to be running in order for it to work. Change Screen is more in the background.

Also, I found Gyrator to be too confusing on how to program with individual apps. Change Screen is A LOT easier to adjust. I especially like how Change Screen has the ability to show you what the app name is so there is no confusion when programming the exceptions. That is a huge plus.

I do find that Change Screen is a bit slow on rotation sometimes and to the extreme it seems to get confused. But that doesn't bother me that much.

So if you can't already tell, I like Change Screen.
