I suppose we have different levels of expectation because I don't consider an easily confused touchscreen sensor a 'little' detail.

As you may be aware, gaming is becoming more prominent in the mobile arena. Nintendo's acknowledging the iPhone as a handheld competitor now. Apple has it's own Xbox Live-like system in the works for OS 4.0. The trend towards gaming is not a small segment of business for Apple, the App Store, or for the mobile world in general.

If I were a developer, it would be a hard pill for me to swallow that the device from which I'm supposed to base my game's hardware capabilities off of cannot handle two inputs within 15mm on the same axis without inverting the input or dragging a line across the screen.

If you don't game, it's really not a problem. But it's a head scratcher that Google would shoot themselves in the foot like this in a market segment that's going nowhere but up.

I was an iPhone power user going back to 07. I sold my last iPhone and bought the Nexus One. It's an improvement in most ways. It is not the best phone in the world. I don't think there is a best phone in the world, but it's an exceptional phone. As long as I have push email, good browsing, things like live weather and a few apps I'll actually use, I'm happy. And let's not forget that it's a phone. It's a good phone. So put it all together, given the specs, and the build quality, along with the ergonomics, it's a special device. I'm using it with the HTC Sense UI, and it's more phone with that.

love my N1

the touch sensor is a little disappointing but I don't game on my nexus so it is not that big of a deal for me.

coming from an HTC Fuze this is a huge step up and I love it.

[Nexus One General] rydr1:
this thread itself is a bit asinine, or should I say the OP?

I have owned many phones before but to just mention the Droid family i have had the G1, mytouch, nexus one. I love my phone, but there will always be new and better things coming out. The incredible is a good looking phone and who the hell cares if there is another phone that will take our nexus down, that is how technology works. It seems to me that someone is just bitter about paying top dollar for this phone and then something new and better comes out. Deal with it.

I have this phone and even though I love this phone I will never say that this is the best phone out there.

@ the OP, have you ever considered that a satellite phone that could make calls in places this phone would never even have a chance?

[Nexus One General] D200P13:
i agree this phone is great my only problems with it are:

1: battery drains too much even though it is expected since its oled and i understand that but a better battery would be better.

2: NO VOICE DIALING ON BLUETOOTH! this is my #1 issue actually.

3: i lose connections when switching from H-3G-E. not cool but not that i live on online connections.

1 more is the trackball. i have never used it only when i flashed it i think. i can really do without it or wish it was like the desire not a trackball.

oh and almost forgot. wish it had a dedicated green/send button in the soft keys.

these 2 last things are really minor and not a big deal just a preference.

@halorin

It seems that most of your issues are with a lack of a physical keyboard. I almost got an N900 because of the 90% gpl maemo OS (Open Office on my phone for real?!), full keyboard, two cameras, FM transmitter, and good stereo speakers.

This phone is tiny. Not palm pixie tiny, but about perfectly proportioned. It's less than half the thickness of the Droid with my skin on! It's insanely tough, scratch proof, and never gets hot. My battery life is better than the original BB Curve I had. I get over 48 hours if I'm actually trying to conserve the battery. So far, I can leave auto-brightness, gps, wifi, bluetooth, and sync all turned on and my phone will go 24+ hours.

Rooting and installing CM took care of 95% of my complaints. With the HTC IME keyboard I finally caught upto an Iphone 3gs for typing (although IMHO this has more to do with apple's superior error correction scheme for key presses). I assume you've noticed that the color, brightness, and contrast is better than that more sensitive 3GS touch screen.

That last 5% is:

radio frequencies (I want FM, CB, and wifi broadcast!),

full usb functionality (ethernet, printers, etc),

T-mobile bull**** service in my area,

lack of LiFeP04 battery (probably a problem with voltage for the embedded chips), and

lack of physical buttons (which is slowly becoming a plus).

I'm not even a fanboy. Maybe when we hit the 9+ month after release I'll see something better.
[Nexus One General] Untouchab1e:
If my Nexus One had a Touch Pro 2-ish keyboard and slightly better battery life, it would be the perfect dream phone for me..

I just switched back from Cyanogen to a Desire ROM - and the scrolling on the site became smooth again.

(Yeah, I know you probably don't have a Wii etc, but still pretty badass!!)
[Nexus One General] halorin:
Well, I definitely don't want a physical keyboard. There are a lot of things to like about the phone. I've admitted that plenty of times already. I just would like for the phone's touch screen to be what I'm sure everyone expected it to be.

The Wii connection is huge, but not really ideal for snes games. I also, like I said, primarily playing on a metro so having the phone in my lap is not a good prospect. I do hope that leads the way to connecting a ps3 controller.

I plan on trying a Desire rom to see if the scrolling is better, but the average user is not going to want to do that. Some things should come out of the box.
[Nexus One General] mattisdada:
First phone in the world to handle flash? Hardly...

My LG Viewty, a feature phone (or dumb phone if you will). Was built on flash(and java), and of course, had full flash support through out the phone (lite and full).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eltonio2000:
Hi everyone,

I guess many of you are in huge pain with the KU990 new version, that is, the ones that cannot be unlocked using lg3g or mtty methods.

Here I would like to describe everything I tried so far and the current status I am locked in today.

My biggest mistake was to not backup my phone (the famous .nv2 file) at the very beginning ! I strongly advise people who wish to modify their phone somehow to first backup with LGMDP !! Otherwise you may end just like me...

I started with a SFR (VDF FRANCE) locked phone and, as I did not have the SFR sim card at that time, I tried to unlock it with both the lg3g and the mtty methods. Unfortunately the unlocking procedures did not work at all, although I ensure I tried everything. I finally read somewhere that the newest KU990 had a supplementary protection that could not be overcome.

In parallel I was able to manage to change the firmware to OPEN or VDF (EURO) versions ranging from v10a to v10j (using LGMDP). So it seems that there is no big issue there.

However at some point in the process (I guess the unlocking), my IMEI was changed. And my phone started to ask me to "Insert USIM card" or to refer to "Invalid USIM card" depending on if a sim was in or not. I understood that USIM was referring to international sim cards so I tried to reinstall VDF firmwares with VDF .nv2 and VDF Flex backups (still not mine), but this made my phone unusable as it displayed a nice yellow screen and the fact that some wallpaper file could not be found. Still I could solve this problem by I changing back to OPEN firmwares and .nv2.

Now I recovered the original sim card from SFR and was able to obtain the unlock code from their hotline. But as my IMEI has been changed, the unlock code fails now.

Thus I tried to reset or to change my IMEI back to what is written below the battery using either lg3g, mtty, QPST or NVEditor. This also leaded nowhere as even reading the IMEI with lg3g and mtty failed and as QPST and NVEditor revealed that the NV_UE_IMEI_I parameter was protected (NV_READONLY_S). I tried many different things with these tools but it does not seem possible to break the protection.

I guess my only chance now would be to insert my old IMEI into an existing .nv2 file. I have found some "NV2 - QCN TOOLS V1.4" that can do this but only on the KU20.

Does anyone has a tool allowing to insert a new IMEI in a .nv2 ?

OR

Did anyone go through the same difficulties and did finally find a solution ?

any help will be greatly appreciated :o)

please do not ask me how i did this or that for the moment, if I can solve my problem I will certainly return the favor to all of you later on.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rickou26:
Hello,

Have you tested the tools for the KS20, because the. NV2 is certainly quite similar.

@+
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eltonio2000:
Thank you for your suggestion.

I tried the tool but first it returns a NV2 Status Error when I load any .nv2 file, second the IMEI is forced into 357323-01-XXXXXX whereas both my original and current IMEIs start with 353638-02, and third, although the tool indeed creates the file (I chose "Branded nv2"), the backup fails (LGMDP reports four NV ITEMs with NV_BADPARM_S with no more information) and I end up in Emergency mode.

A KU990 version of the tool might do the trick, if it is possible to specify the full IMEI of course. I can send my current nv2 file(s) if it can help anyone...

got a pay as you sim card from tmobile on roaming few days ago, im not even in US. also have a locked Tmobille G1 from US and broken wifi (doesnt turn on). have been trying to get it registered weeks ago and some how with that sim it worked! after that tried to use browser but it just got redirected to m.web2go.com, so my thoughts were DAMN DOESNT WORK!! but last night after some hours messing with gprs settings finally managed to load a different web page!!

the logic of this method is being used for other carriers here although for tmob was harder.

with epc.tmobile.com as APN enter the address you wish to go to in Proxy and Port 80 or 8080. later in browser address just input a fake address, doesnt even have to be real but it needs to have tmobile as prefix instead of WWW or anything else. ex:

APN: epc.tmobile.com

proxy:xdaforums.com

port:80

browser address: http://tmobile.whateveryouwant.com

it works real nice but down side some pages will not work like google.com and u have to stick to that web page cause its ur proxy. an anonymus proxy could be used like www.flyproxy.com or www.acmeserv.com so u can go to any web after loading that but didnt worked for me, pages wont load after the proxy. if someone could find a nice proxy that would work it'll be great!

BTW: dunno if this is known, didnt find anything on web. dont care bout the credit, just a contribution.
[Networking] firefly123:
Does this still work? not for me.
[Networking] josefcrist:
your sim card must still have valid service. if you dont subscribe to data you will get this message. I think that they will still charge who ever the sim card belongs to for the amount of data transfered.

Hi all, I searched to no end and read just about EVERY post looking for these answers sooo does anyone know of a reg edit where you can have the green light flashing when you receive an email? I already have it checked off in settings to "show on screen (does not do this either) and flash Light for "no limit" (I also put the .cab "LED Enabler on it) and also I'm looking to modd the Internet links and have Opera as default like I did to the XML file on my TP2.

Email light: I know for a fact that this was (and remains...) non-working in all the official ROMs and updates. HTC customer service even goes so far as to deny there's even a problem: they swear their green 'new email' light works just fine. :rolleyes:

Several workarounds (I suggest not holding your breath 'til HTC gets around to fixing this...):

- PhoneAlarm. The developer has made a fix that will fire the green light. It's a paid app, but does all sorts of other amazing things though (mute your alarms when you get to a specific cell tower or GPS spot, for instance).

Re: the second storage card: look in explorer, and find out which one isn't your real one. Delete it. Restart your phone, and you'll be in business again. (Your phone couldn't find the apps you installed on your SD card; not a big deal).

I don't know how possible it would be to do,

but I played with some motoblur widgets on my buddy's Cliq, and now I'm jealous (i'm a social networking junkie).

Understanding that MOTOBLUR is still Android 1.5/1.6, is there any way to set up a partial MOTOBLUR integration into a ROM, or a MOTOBLUR skin that includes the widgets (and some program to log in/sign up to Motoblur?).

I found and pushed some .apk files I found around, but without any real idea what I'm doing, it was pretty close to 100% failure (with the exception of actually getting a couple of icons to show up in my app drawer - that's about it).

Is there any other interest in this? And will this be easier once the Cliq and Devour get 2.1?
