I find it strange that the ERE27 radio would be better for ATT 3G... but i you want to try that, go ahead and flash the radio via fastboot... no available ROM or firmware is tied to a radio version for the N1 and it won't disturb ur apps or settings...
[Nexus One General] rimrocka0834:
craig thanks for the quick response, I find it strange too but take a look at the thread

http://android.modaco.com/content/g...exus-one-downgraded-radio-improved-reception/

it seems that a lot of people are having success with this. Another question if it doesnt matter what apps you have etc then why does cyanogen list the gapps for the different radio versions?
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
Well, with each new iteration of the official [leaked] firmwares, the cooks incorporate the updated Google Apps software and some firmware modules from within that ROM. So for a particular cooked ROM release, a specific Google Apps pack would work optimally with it. The radio on the other hand is simply the latest available at the time the ROM was released...

[Desire General] Philosoma:
Before I got my desire I sorted out my Google contact just right and added lovely edited pictures, mostly from Facebook. They all synced fine. However, after linking said contacts with Facebook it uses that picture instead. Some people have awful pictures, so I click the link on the top right of the contact, and then click the picture on the left and select the Google picture.

Job done, or so I thought. It then later reverts to Facebook. Does anyone else have this problem? Any fixes?
[Desire General] lumpaywk:
I have no fix for this but if anyone also knows how to only sync specific Facebook contacts and get rid of others that I don't want clustering up my phone that would also be great
[Desire General] gogol:
This is one thing that I hate Android and Google.

Why can't they implement a good way, crisp and nice contact photo?

Look at Google Contacts from GMail, the photo contact is bloody ugly in terms of image quality. And the resolution is small.

I just cannot believe this, that after 2 - 3 years, the Android google contacts is awful.

I am proudly show Android to people, make them say "Wow" ... but I shamely hide showing them the contact photo. When I got a call, the photo is damn blurry.

Is this a storage issue? No!

Network speed issue when syncing over the air? Probably! But why not add a way to select custom picture from phone and mark it to be NOT OVERIDDEN when syncing!@

And what's that automatic contacts addition on GMail! Duplicate contacts!

Then came HTC trying to do Facebook integration and whatnot, bloody mess up with linking contact, photo not shown.

I spent some hours to sort this out, and finally gave up. I accept that this is one of the weakness of Android ... contact photo is awful.

People screamed already since long ago, but no fix from Google.
[Desire General] Philosoma:
That is another issue with this Facebook intergration. I don't need all the people on FB on some of the phones contact list.

I have a fix of sorts for the contact pictures. Goto the Facebook sync settings, and uncheck 'Sync contacts'. Syncing Facebook no longer changes contact pictures! Not sure how it will effect Facebook once new people are added though.
[Desire General] setspeed:
Where is Facebook sync settings?
[Desire General] Philosoma:
Settings, Accounts & Sync, Facebook for HTC Sense
[Desire General] AMoosa:
I think the low res photo problem is an HTC dialer problem. the contact photos looked fine on my Milestone.
[Desire General] Snake-Plissken:
i have the same issue, everytime i sync with my pc it changes the contactpicture to the one from facebook.

i have automatic sync deactivated. so after every sync with my pc, i have to set all the pictures again, and i get tired of if.

no solution for that problem? i dont know why they let you choose a picture, and after a sync its overwriting your setting again. it should be somehow protected, after a manual set of the picture.

i am very new to android, so maybe somebody else knows.
[Desire General] Nitin985:
my pics have been fine i think that the facebook intergration is a usefull feature but when u click the pic choose phone instead of the other options
[HD2 General] pawkar:
Hi just got the Htc Leo week ago. First i want to upgrade my rom to the oficial one. Im running 1.43 wwe and i want load 1.66 wwe but there's two yhings witch stoping me:

1. On htc website i try tu download the 1.66 rom but when i put my serial number it said that: Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.

2. On sunnysoft page i dowload 1.66 rom but they write that:

LIMITATION

PN: 99HJZ022-00

(compare with the number on the label

under battery of your device)

and my number dont match 99HJY070-0

Is that mean that i cant upgrade my rom?

If i upgrade will i brick my leo

I'm not sure is that becouse my htc is branded to o2

Can someone provide me any help

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.
[HD2 General] jagger2k:
I belive o2 branded HD2 do not have an official update as of yet. You can how ever HSPL the device and flash the rom. It will not have any ill effect if you follow the instructions.
[HD2 General] georgi69:
myone...

My one is NOT branded and I can't download 1.66 based on serial as well. But being on factory rom has also advantages -> I can (and will) go back to the shop, put it on the table and say "thank you, I've had enough".
[HD2 General] Miishaak:
Did you try to download the official 1.66 ROM from here and install it on the device?
[Desire Accessories] jannen:
I ordered the below car holder/charger for Desire after reading good reviews about it. Ordered it noon time and it was delivered in the next mornings post!! It fits nicely in my car, feels robust enough that I feel my Desire is in safe hands. And it charges the phone while driving! It comes with several plugs including mini and micro USB.

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/trailblazer-universal-car-charger-and-holder-p22954.htm
[Desire Accessories] A|ex:
I have the same one, plenty of adapters etc but found out after ordering it i cannot use it in my car because the design and where the socket is, is in a bad place. If it was in a good place i would use it all the time, well worth having and i rate it highly (btw cheap build but it works!)
[Desire Accessories] zonkkk:
Did you try to use the car charger with Google Navigation and GPS and 3G Data turned on?

People say there is a problem, with 'cheap' chargers, that they don't provide enough power to use and charge the phone at the same time.

I have bought a car-lighter to USB adapter (max output 1000mAh) but it doesn't do the job, phone is still discharging battery, even if plugged in.
[Desire Accessories] jannen:
I drove a bit with Google nav + GPS + 3G on... to me it seemed to charge well = the charge at the end wasnt lower than when started using navigation. Will try it on longer trips to make sure though... will post here what find out!
[Desire Accessories] Petesky:
This happened to me, had all of the above on + bluetooth and after a 40 mile drive phone had not charged at all but at least it had not discharged either , I thought maybe I hadn't seated it right and its the trailblazer I'm using
[Nexus One General] neok44:
So i really want to root my N1, but the whole breaking the warranty thing really scares the crap outta me. So far my G1 and my Mytouch 3G haven't had any problems.

Using the nexus stock for about 24 hours now i've noticed the signal drop when you hold it from the bottom, but thats it. Luckily for me 3g signal is ass in almost all the places i go and i normally use wi-fi when i'm doing major browsing/downloading.

But i've seen threads here of these other problems like the radio not working, dust in the screen, and a few other things that make be very nervous about rooting and breaking the warranty.

So i was hoping to get some impressions on the chances of actually having one of these problems, and what i can do if i do get them after i've rooted the phone.
[Nexus One General] martin0285:
Quick advice would be:

1) Check for hardware defects (IE make sure everything works, headphone jack, Wifi, BlueTooth, all the buttons ect.)

2) Make sure you don't have any dead or stuck pixels in the screen while also checking for dust

3) Break your warranty if you feel your satisfied. Remember it's at your own risk. All you can say.

I happily rooted my phone after what I felt was a thorough "shake down" (checking everything out). Once I felt comfortable there was nothing "hardware defective", I un-locked and have been happy ever since (about 3 months now :D)

God willing, I did not just jinx's myself.....
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
if your apprehensive about rooting & voiding ur warranty, fiddle around with the phone & it's features and functions for a while... try out everything... hardware & software... i suggest u do it for a week or two (maybe more) if ur really apprehensive... or if u have it insured, I guess u can take the plunge a little earlier...
[Nexus One General] neok44:
so far everything works. wi-fi, 3g, bluetooth, audio jack, usb, all the buttons. Took a while to get used to having to press the top part of them. That and the home/back being reversed lol.

Amazingly no dead pixels. almost every device i've ever owned has had a dead pixel, even TV's lol. But my two OLED devices have none, guess i'm having good luck.

guess i'll give it a few more days and then jump in. thanks for the advice guys!

I guess someone will eventually figure out how to relock the bootloader one day
[Nexus One General] Austin021296:
I am pretty sure you can get a warranty through squaretrade or statefarm even if it is rooted.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
insurance != warranty
[Nexus One General] jacka$$1:
Dude...just do it. I was scared sh**less like you when I first rooted my ATT N1. But trust me, you'll be excited as all hell while doing it and the results are amazing! You will not go back...NO JOKE! Your warranty may be voided, but you won't brick it (unless you ran out of battery power in the middle of the mod). It only takes about 30 min max, which is plenty of time before your phone's battery craps out.

Don't puss out! Just do it! You'll be SUPREMELY glad you did.

EDIT: You'll notice improvements in almost every category: including better keyboard accuracy and improved window animation/transition.
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
You can't brick ur phone even if ur battery dies while installing a mod... unless the mod flashes the radio... only flashing the SPL/bootloader or radio can brick ur phone... and at this point in time, for the N1, it's just the radio...
[Nexus One General] bri3d:
I've found the easiest way to tell if you're going to get the dust under the screen issue is to wait 1-2 weeks for the phone to get bumped around, used, pressed on, etc. and then try pressing down hard on each corner of the screen. Every Nexus I've felt with the dust issue has had a little play in the corners of the screen cover (sometimes even making a noise when you press hard on a corner).
[Nexus One General] e4604:
aww come one man, youll be happy you "broke the warranty", i got my brand new nexus one today:D and i didnt even think twice about it, i mean you get a phone with awesome hardware, why not use it to its full potential? even if it comes down to warranty replacement(for whatever reason dust, defects..etc..)if they charge me 100-170 to replace it then so be it, although it seems like majority of users with unlocked bootloaders have gotten replacement at no charge. With that said im totally willing to gamble...are you?!?!
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
I would never root the phone personally.

I jailbroke my iPhone 3gs before but that was only because you can restore it back like new and keep your warranty.

No way I would risk the warranty on Mah' Baby!

I've seen the benefits of rooting and I'm not that impressed since the phone already fulfills all of my needs. It's mainly for the stat geeks that love to tinker with their toys and have full control. ;)
[Nexus One General] neok44:
with my mytouch i rooted the day i got it, the nexus just makes me a bit nervous seeing that price tag lol.

But yeah i've had 2 days now with no issues and everything seems to be working great. Got the stupid signal thing that it does, but thats okay since i'm on wi-fi anytime i'm doing major data use.

$100-$170 for a replacement isn't that bad, and hopefully someone can relock the bootloader. and i did read that one person who had the dust issue went to google and he got the replacement for free.

So guess i'll take the plunge today. (^_^)

and from the information screenshots i see written PV after build number that means u have used some file in which lecamtran and phamquang have edited the build number to show pv which means pdaviet. :D But thats not a problem :)

Here are a few things from my ROM that I thought other people may want.

NinjaToday - Samsung Omnia Pro Today Theme

Credit goes to omarjunior for his manila clock

Version without manila clock available for people with clock positioning issues.

NinjaMenu - Samsung T*Omnia2 Main Menu

​

Install Instructions

NinjaToday - Install the cab to your Main Memory (have not tested on SD or \My Storage)

NinjaToday Std Clock - Standard clock used

NinjaMenu - Copy the .exe file to your \Windows folder on your Main Memory. You will probably need to make a shortcut if you do not already have this program installed on your phone.

Opera 10 Browser Shortcut - If the Google plugin for Samsung Today does not work for you, you can copy this shortcut into your \windows folder on your Main Memory and install Opera 10 to your \My Storage.

SOLVED (sounds & notifications settings)

Before when notifications (and most importantly the alarm) went off I am 99 % sure I used to get the popup menu at the bottom of the lock screen with options to either dismiss or pause the alarm. Lately this option on lock screen has now disappeared. Now when the alarm wakes me in the morning I have to unlock the phone, tap the notifications bar on top of the screen to get to the notifications menu and tap the alarm to get to the pop up menu for the chosen notification. If you just want to snooze the alarm, you'll be wide awake by the end of this series of touches. :(

Do people get the notification popup menu on their lock screens? I sure would like to get this back. Anyone?

PS: I think that this was OK on several occations between my last program install (I think this was updating the cookies home tab to 1.6) and when I first noticed the problem, but I can't really swear on it.

PS2: I have searched to find a thread with this issue, but have just found slightly relating topics (ie in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=612775&highlight=notification+lock it seems a guy had to unlock to dismiss but I'm not sure if that was due to password lock. And I did try the "Clean notifications" with pmClean as suggested by post #6. I'm not really sure if this worked though, because it says that the number of notifications are 19 both before and after I apply the cleanup. Does this mean the program doesn't work?)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
do you have bsb tweaks installeD? Turn on 'dismiss x notifications' tweak. That reenables the snooze and what not,

also,

settings tab - menu - all settings - sounds & notific - notifications.

call up teh notification you are interested in (new message, for example) and tick 'show on screen'.

Give those a try, see if they help. (Soft reset to make sure teh settings are changed.)
[HD2 General] 15dty:
Thanks so much. It was the sounds & notifications settings that did it.

Feeling kind of silly now that it was just a simple setting :o. But I'm pretty sure I haven't changed it myself so I guess I just assumed it would be something more severe.

Anyhow. PROBLEM SOLVED.
[HD2 General] cu2cool:
Problem solved! I also forgot that I had already done this before I did a hard reset! :o Thanks for this post though!

just think logically, what are apps like this made for? to monitor your internet usage so you dont go over your monthly plan, WiFi is free so why would it monitor it and confuse you with overall results? :)

To be fair though the app has a specific section for WiFi data usage which only ever displays 0 but is clearly meant to show your usage, so it is not working correctly.

I've been able to patch the sourcecode to get it to work on the HTC Desire, which was very easy since it is basically the same device as the Nexus One. I've been using that patched version without a problem.

I've submitted that patch to the author almost 3 weeks ago, but I've received no reply yet. I've also noticed that the application source code hasn't been updated since January, 3rd, so I suspect that this application isn't being actively developed anymore... :confused:
