I've never had a problem with mine.

I saw a review saying that they got in the way when typing w/ the onscreen keyboard, but I haven't even had that, and I'd like to think that I have pretty normal-sized fingers.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
Some people have problems, others don't i personally haven't. I wouldn't consider it to be something important enough to sway me from a sale though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam18488:
Stock Rom had this issue. If you unlock your bootloader, all the kernels (and mods) available now have a fix for this, as well as a few other things.

Im sure when 2.2 update comes out this fix will be passed on to the stock version too (at least as far as im aware it hasnt already!?). So tbh this isnt an issue for you not to get a nexus one...also, there's no point getting a nexus one if ur too scared to unlock the bootloader!!:p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hacker01:
Definitely! That's one of the biggest reasons why I want an N1. It has a good root and dev community and gets android updates first.

I just thought it'd be annoying to have to use a phone with crappy capacitive buttons, but I'm glad to hear that the problem has been fixed.

The only other thing I'm worried about is the dualtouch but it's most definitely going to get fixed in the next update.

Thanks to everyone for their input. I'll definitely be picking up an N1 soon :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bpm2000:
I have rooted and custom roms etc and I still hate the capacitive buttons with a passion. They are not nearly enough to topple the overall awesome that is the N1 but man I hate those things.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
I only hate :) those buttons, when Nex is in my car mount!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrawnPoBoy:
Is this true? I've tried plenty of ROMs and kernels and I don't remember any of them changing the button sensitivity.

The best way to show off how frustrating the buttons can be is to give the phone to someone that's never played with it before and watch as they struggle to register touches on the buttons. The people that use the phone daily have recognized that the touchpad is above the button and never think about it any more.

It's very apparent as soon as you rotate the phone into a different position though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandam500:
I also haven't noticed any change in the sensitivity with different ROMs or kernels. For me though, sometimes if I hit right on top of the button it won't register. I am used to just tapping it a little above and it works everytime.

As others have said, this is definitely not a deal breaker for me or shouldn't be for any person IMO. This phone's pros far outweigh the cons.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidmac:
When someone is doing that you should just say that it has Finger print authentication technology :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboomer55:
absolutely true and this was my discovery today (day 4 with n1). the buttons work fine if you cheat towards the top of the button area and overlap into the screen area.

that solved it for me.

resolved for me for now...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hacker01:
Did you just buy your N1 from Google brand new?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightnz:
Those buttons are a pain in the bum, but you get used to them, the bigger problem is if the phone gets too cold it starts mis-registering the touchscreen necessitating a reboot or a bunch of mucking around to fix it. This is the biggest annoyance with the phone for me, hopefully they fix the screen calibration in 2.2!

Almost swapped mine for a Desire, thinking less of doing so now, unless anyone can offer a good reason :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilentMobius:
I got my N1 straight from Google on day one, and I'm currently running CM 5.06

I find the capacitive buttons to be _awful_ if I tap directly on them it takes 2-5 attempts to get it to register.

However, I have found that if I swipe from the button down off the bottom of the button it registers ever single time.

I'm pretty convinced that the problem isn't the digitiser itself but in the driver that splits that section of the digitiser off. I believe it checks to see if there is upward movement before registering a button tap and if it does detect upward motion it cancels the tap event and forwards the event as a touch screen event. I also thing that because I have pretty big fingers any time I press the flattening of my finger registers as a slight upward motion.

If I could find the button "sub"-driver I'd be hacking at it right now.

Still, I wouldn't give up my N1.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
Just realized that!!

It does not get the upward movement :)

It gets: right, left & down

So this means, one could set different options for different directions...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schahr01:
I have noticed no issues when holding the phone in my hands but the responsiveness is not that great if the phone is flat on a desk or a similar surface. I wonder what if anything the accelerometer may play a factor.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaximReapage:
I dunna man, my 3-year-old daughter figured it out within a minute of getting my phone. I set her up in a game and she decided she wanted something else, so she messed with the capacitive buttons until she got out of the game. Once she had it once or twice (~5-10 seconds for her to figure out each time) it was pretty much instant after that. If a 3-yo can figure it out, I'm pretty sure it's not THAT difficult. Annoying, sure....but not difficult.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboomer55:
Yes. Direct from Google.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hacker01:
Wow there's definitely a good mix of answers. I thought that the newer batches of N1's fixed the capacitive button problem, but apparently not.

I guess there's not a definite answer. It seems the only conclusion you can make is that some N1's may still have the problem, some may not. Some can be fixed with custom roms and unlocking the bootloader and some cannot. Your results may very.

EDIT: After rereading some of the previous posts (more carefully. excuse my sleep deprived state lol), the capacitive button issue might actually be more of a feature than an issue. I've read similar posts about the capacitive buttons having that sort of "motion detection" thing to prevent accident presses. Hopefully for anyone still having the problem, you can reread some of the posts on this page and give their methods a try (:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jersey_609:
I haven't had a problem with mine but I haven't had the problems most people say they have with the phone so I would recommend this phone to anyone that wants an android phone

Lets see if froyo fixes this.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amrosorma:
This seems to be a hardware problem, meaning there is nothing software can do.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewX2:
My cousin and I bought N1s pretty darn close to each other and his has no issues and mine does. It annoys me to the point of not wanting the phone. Having to hit a button 2-3 times to get it to register is just ridiculous. I want physical buttons.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
Seems like a problem with some phones only since I've never had to press the capacitive buttons more than once for it to register.

Thus I find it hard to believe that this is something that is going to get fixed in the froyo update.
[Imagio General] falconw13:
hey everyone!

I have been loving my imagio with the Orange Slim Rom on it, but there is always room for improvement... i have been reading about the HTC Performance overclock for the older qualcomm processors msm7x00, and was wondering if anyone had tried it on our Qualcomm 7600..

Anyone Care to be the first to try it? Im kinda scared since i dont have insurance on my phone.

:)
[Imagio General] JDubbs115:
Hey, I'm giving it a go now. As they say, you only live once, right? Or twice (insurance helps with that :-) ). By the way, the cab you have didn't have the shortcuts to make the actual changes. I found one labeled "__with_shortcut_" floating around the internet somewhere that actually let me use the thing. It's about the same file size.

I haven't noticed anything too dramatic, but here's some of the things I think got better:

- Lists like the contacts or All Applications seem to come up faster.

- Populates the complete lists of songs on the touch flo music library much faster and maintains them better, especially after a reboot when everything's fresh.

- Speeds through the phone's setting menus now, where it used to slow down in a lot of places.

- Google Maps approximates my location the moment it starts now, whereas it used to take a couple seconds after coming up (I don't know why that is since it finds you first by using cell towers, but it's just better at it.) It also loads the maps faster when moving around.

- Weather animations appear smoother.

That's about it. No other applications load or work any faster for me, and animations are just as smooth as they've always been. I've enabled landscape support for just about everything on the phone, and nothing rotates faster either. That said, I'm running the Imagio's stock rom with nothing more than the SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy and Manila NoPushInternet to keep the memory usage down, so I don't really know how what it'll do for a custom rom. I'm really considering removing it though, since the gains I've seen are too small to run the risk of bricking my phone or draining the battery faster, which I feel like it's doing. It is very stable though, so I see no problem in giving it a try. It never locked up and nothing crashed. Hope your experience fares better.
[Imagio General] falconw13:
Thanks for the Review of this app. :) I think more people (including myself) will feel a little bit more confident in using this app, knowing that we havent had any brick problems... Everyone that has downloaded this app please leave your view on if this app really works or not. :)

SPB Benchmark is very long in the tooth, but using mainly the gfx & cpu tests on

a fresh install of nrgy may 16th:

stock 524mhz VS dynamic 624mhz clock:

using nuedynamic clock to underclock the phone 384mhz VS 122mhz Note the voltage was set to 0 (least):
[Imagio General] Toysrme257th:
FWIW i also tried the near defunct nueoverclocktest cab to go from 524mhz to 768mhz. i hard locked ASA i switched it to 768mhz on both AC power and 100% batt power.

http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/post/2009/09/07/nueOverClockTest.aspx

so in conclusion, i highly doubt HTC Performance does anything AFA changing clocks & we apparently can't overclock.
[Imagio General] jxid:
Does this really work for HTC Mega (T3333)?

How can i test the CPU speed?

Is there any prog for testing?

I am wondering if anyone in the forum has heard the news that very soon TMOUS would offer "Hourly Pass" (99-cent per hour) internet access to customers using a prepaid plan?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] s.zamani:
I have to flash my girlfriends diamond that she got second hand and happens to be a French device.

it is locked with pass and the shop owner doesn’t remember the pass. Willing to take back the device my girlfriend wants to keep it if possible.

Since it has a PW that I don’t know I only can put it in 3 color screen manually and then go on.

Doing so I get this 3 color info page:

DIAM100 64M

SPL-1.93.0000

MicroP-Diam (LED) v11

PSOC- Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30

I thought I should HARD SPL but freezes on 0%

I read about that issue

tried actually every single SPL in the forum signed and unsigned but it still freezes always at 0%

[UPDATE] I also tried flashing the following ROMs so far:

Eto.X 1.3 WWE

RUU_Diamond_HTC_GER_1.93.407.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship

[2nd UPDATE]

I have the device now rested manually (factoryy default )since Vicai was kind enough to tell me how this works but still there no connection between pc and ppc.

this is kind of strange for me since my pc recognizes my touch pro without problems.

[3rd UPDATE]

now it the diamond is listed finaly in windows explorer but still any attempt to do a ROM update or HRD SPL gets STUCK at 0%

[4th UPDATE]

I tried flashing RUU_Diamond_HTC_FRA_1.93.406.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship

same thing happens now again stuck at 0%

now I am kind a running out of ideas and would appreciate a little help,..

thx,

I am realy trying to get some help here.

would somebody help me out?

do I do something wrong or am I looking for advice at the wrong place?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
well, actually i think there are alot of helpfull ppl round here, but they can't come up with a good solution for your problem. I personally have no clue why you can't run hardSPL.

What i do know is that since the device is not hardSPL'ed it is not possible to flash any rom (even official ones) in another language than the one it came with (French).

What you could try however is flashing an official French ROM, you can download it from here, (look for wiki pages for diamond) or from the official HTC site, and then try to run hardSPL again.

Good luck and i hope things gonna work out for ya.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] s.zamani:
thats what I am going to do, I just did't try so far because my french is realy bad ;) but I allready downloaded the french rom to try.

thank you,

[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
My phone constantly tells me it's running out of room. I used to be able to have 10+ apps, but I now only have 4 and it still gives me the message sometimes. I've slowly had to keep removing apps as it keeps appearing even though I remove apps.

I have no documents, no music, no videos, etc. on the phone. My four apps total less than 4MB.

What the hell is wrong? Is there a way to "clean up" the phone?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
what build are you running?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
myn's latest release.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] radar5:
have you tried cleaning out your cache? A lot of people said web browsing alone would start eating up space. look in the recommended apps thread for recommendations
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Yes, look for the app "CacheMate" in the market or online. It will clear all cache and speed up/clean up your phone. Also, if you ever find yourself running out of room because of so many apps (not really the case here, though) I strongly recommend doing system on NAND and data on SDCard Partition (ext2 partition). You can set an ext2 partition on your card from within android on the terminal. I reallly like it because you can have like 500mb for data, rather than the 128mb or whatever is available on our phones. Let me know if you'd like instructions or help with CacheMate or setting up a data partition.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
Thanks guys.

I found a TON of downloaded .apk files from the market in /cache so I deleted them and I'm good to go.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] my2sense:
Hey, can you please let me know how I can set up a data on an ext2 partition. I have a 1gb ext2 partition but and changed the boot menu to "data on ext2 partition" but when I check the Internal Phone Storage in settings, it shows a low MB free and not the around 1GB like I thought. You mentioned something about the terminal... thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Ok, first try choosing the option "Data on SDcard partition" that is the option you want. If you choose "Data on ext2 Img" it will do it on your fat32 partition of your memory card. Let me know if you need more guidance.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] my2sense:
Ah, that's what I was missing, I didn't know I was suppose to choose the "data on SDcard partition" although it makes total sense now.

The weird thing is my card was originally partitioned like this:

6.5GB FAT32

1.0GB ext2

32MB linux-swap

It didn't work and kept telling me that there wasn't enough room. I deleted the 32MB linux-swap and combined the partitions to:

6.5GB FAT32

1.xGB ext2

and it told me that it couldn't find any ext2 SD partition so I finally formatted it like this just for the heck of it:

6.5GB FAT32

32MB linux-swap

1.0GB ext2

and it worked! I've read a lot of stuff on app2sd and they always stated to format the SDcard like how I had it originally. Oh well, thanks for the help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrono:
Yeah, i just had to reformat mine to 1: fat32 2: swap 3: ext2, if swap and ext2 were flipped then it tried to use the swap part as an ext2 part
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
It's because the installer is hardcoded to look for the 2nd part for system and 3rd for data. So if you only have two partitions, it won't let you put data there.

As far as the internal phone storage - I think it shows the remaining space on the system partition, not the data partition.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrono:
I had 3, just with swap and ext2 changed positions, it worked in V4 but not V5 of warm donut
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Interesting... the installer doesn't care what file system is there, it reformats it anyway if you 'wipe data.'

elif [ $RM_dataloc -eq 1 ] ; then
if [ $RM_wipedataforsys = "yes" ] ; then
/bin/mke2fs -F /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 > /dev/null

So could you set it up with 4 parts, fat, ext2, ext2, swap? I've never used swap...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrono:
no idea, I only ever set up fat32 ext2 swap, never needed a second swap partition
[Touch CDMA Android Development] slow88lx:
How do I make an ext2 partition and can I transfer data to it without reinstalling?

[Desire Themes and Apps] th3:
This app albeit being one of my favs really puzzled me. I didn't see why on earth my phone memory is shrinking very slowly without any additional storage. It came to 4mb and nothing would install. Since I desperately needed space for an install I uninstalled this app and rebooted expecting 4-6mb free so that the system will let me install a few apps from the market. Well, whadyaknow... 30mb free after a restart allowing dozens of more apps I wanted. Very strange.

[Droid Incredible General] 1wingangel:
so I read that it has 710mb of rom for app storage, so can you not store apps on the 8 gigs (6.5)of internal mem?
[Droid Incredible General] askwhy:
Currently, you cannot store apps on the 6+ gig partition of the internal memory.

However, when you think about it, the 748MB allocated as internal storage, for apps, is already more total application storage than what most people allocate for themselves when using apps2sd on a rooted phone. For example, if you read some ROM threads, you should find reference to a suggested 512MB partition on SD card for apps2sd and the likelihood of never filling it up. So, even without root and apps2sd we have more apps storage than pretty much everyone else.

Aside from plain old app storage though, I am very curious to see what developers can do with these partitions and all that internal memory once root is achieved.
[Droid Incredible General] th3drow:
Well the good thing nowadays is that alot of developers store files on your sd card also, so you save alot of your app space. I've installed every app that i wanted (I've downloaded over 60) and i have 633mb left

plus most apps don't take much space anyways, alot are under a 1mb
[Droid Incredible General] 1wingangel:
I just heard that the evo has 1gig of storage, which is awesome, but I hate sprint and want to convince myself that the Incredible is a better phone.

so if you have an sd, and download something, does it go to internal or sd?

and when you plug in your phone to your pc, does it show two seperate hard drives(sd and internal)?
[Droid Incredible General] loyunsang:
When you download something, by default it saves to your SD. I haven't found a setting to change that. However, you can move the files to your internal storage after you've finished downloading using Astro File Manager. The downside to all this right now is that all third party apps can only read from the SD card. So if you have music and you want to play them using a third party app, then you'll have to store them on the SD.
[Droid Incredible General] 1wingangel:
Then whats the point of having that much internal storage?
[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:
Things change. It'll be more use later this year. While DI is the first Android set to have internal memory, it won't be the last.

This trick is somewhere in the forum so do not give me credits for it:

Copy both Rotate.exe and SendKeyIcon.exe directly to Windows folder of device, then copy Rotate.exe from windows

folder and Paste Shortcut into Windows\AppButtons folder then make Registry additions posted below.

If I remember correctly You have to create the Key 40C6

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\4 0C6]

(Default) String Value \Windows\AppButtons\rotate.lnk

Flags DWORD 0

Icon String Value \Windows\SendKeyIcon.exe, 0

For me it works perfectly, i also have installed PLToogle in order to set the rotate direction.
