Ordered this on 4/27...with expedited shipping (I'm impatient, so sue me =P), it came to $20. Has anyone on here ordered one of these yet? If so, what did you think of it?
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
So you wear your phone on an armband? I suppose thats cool, just dont walk into things like I tend to do. :o
[Nexus One Accessories] dahui9:
Lol I think its more for exercising and such :D

I haven't even seen a decent armband for the nexus I may buy this so I don't have the phone sitting in my pocket anymore at the gym

-Charlie
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
My sentiments exactly. I have a generic waist bag with a clip on it for normal, every-day use; I use the android slip for whenever I'm in formal wear; and I want to use this for at the gym (since I use workout programs on the phone and the stock headphones with track control anyway).
[Nexus One Accessories] dahui9:
Well go for it and let me know how it is I need a new one soon because in 2 days I'm starting my P90X workout again and Love to listen to the perfect beat of music for it.

-Charlie
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Got it in today....might have some pics for you tomorrow but I love it so far.
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
LOL someone doesn't exercise!!! :eek::eek: :D :D

Let us know how it goes OP.

Is it secure?

I'd love to get an armband for running (ahh, love California) but worry about it falling out and just being heavy while swinging my arms.
[Nexus One Accessories] bpm2000:
pls let us know how it works while running!
[Nexus One Accessories] HelloWorld3:
I ordered one too so I'll let you guys know how it works when I receive it!
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
It's fantastic. Not only is it comfortable and fits the phone perfectly, but has just enough "give" that I can view a text message or look at what routines or weights I should be doing, and even type SMS responses (though I usually just go the lazy method and use voice input). I've also been using the stock Android headphones, so I clip the cord to the armband using the supplied clip (and I wrap the slack around the back of the phone). When I'm done, I pop the phone out of the silicone sleeve and toss it in my gym bag.

As far as the weight goes, the phone itself is the heaviest part, but it feels no heavier than my second generation Zune did. It IS kinda bulky, but hasn't gotten in the way of anything yet, and I don't expect it to. Just situate it on the very side of your arm, and it really can't interfere with anything. It does feel very secure, requiring a fair amount of "tug" to get the phone out of the silicone sleeve....not too much or too little, just right....definitely not gonna fall out, though - besides, if you have headphones in, the headphones themselves provide a natural tether to keep the phone in the silicone.

I've been a bit busy this last week (I just graduated from college on Sunday =D), which is why I don't have pics up, but if I remember, I'll pull the sleeve out of my gym bag when I come home tonight and take some pics for you guys. To me, this thing has been worth every penny.
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
How tight is the fit?

Do you think there would be problems with fitting a phone in that had a clear protector skin on it? I'm currently using the BestSkinsEver.com one.

And congrats on the graduation! Just graduated myself this past summer! :cool:
[Nexus One Accessories] rjhay22:
Thank you for this, I wonder when they were gonna make one of these :) I hate putting my nexus in my pocket while working out... We need this to show it off. lol.
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
I have a full body shield from Skinomi on mine and it fit just fine. As I said, it felt snug enough to be secure with just enough "give". Also, when you have headphones in, those act as an anchor.

Had to do my brakes and change over my brother's tires, so no pics today...hopefully tomorrow.
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
Perfect, thanks!
[Nexus One Accessories] dahui9:
Ok I will be ordering one, now I wont get caught up in my cord while trying to bench press and accidentally grabbing it all the time when I grab the bar.

-Charlie
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
Try a bluetooth headset!

Here's the one I use when I go running:

No wires!!! I love it!!!

It can even do calls too!
[Nexus One Accessories] dahui9:
I'll have to look into it, everyone I've tried has been tinny and I can't stand not having good quality music :D

-Charlie
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Motorola's and Sony's are generally pretty good quality.
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Pics at long last!!!

Oh, and remember, I have a skinomi shield on my phone...so this case definitely works with protectors.

Case by itself:

Case with phone in it (note the holes for all corresponding ports):

Obviously, it's pretty secure:

Headphone "anchor":

Questions? Comments? Snide remarks?
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
Wow, nice pictures! That helps. Looks good.

I like the velvet sheets :D
[Nexus One Accessories] bpm2000:
LOL

thx for the pics - got one on the way!
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
I'm thinking about ordering one of these too. The pictures look nice.

I also found one on ebay but I wanted to see what you guys thought about it. They were too lazy to take a picture of the N1, so they used a iPhone. Other than that, it still looks cool..

http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Armband-N...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45f2578da4
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Unless it's actually designed for the N1, it won't work...you'd have to punch a hole in top for the headphones, you'd lose camera, second mic, etc....if they didn't even bother to put correct pictures up, where's the guarantee that they have the correct product?

Also, you guys would love my black fuzzy throw pillows
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
Yeah.. good point. Thanks
[Nexus One Accessories] logger:
Actually that is not quite correct. If it is designed for the iPhone 3G it should work. I have this Belkin iphone armband and the N1 fits it perfectly. Opening at bottom for USB, One at top for power and headphones. Camera is useable is exposed. Even the recess for iphone button serves as access to your trackball.
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Fair enough, as long as it's the slip-in kind...I dunna, man, I looked at 'em, but it was $20 for the case I bought that's actually designed for the phone and it's fantastic, so there's really no point to rig a case for a $500 phone when you can buy one that's designed for it so cheaply.
[Nexus One Accessories] nmesisca:
bollox. delivery in USA only.

:mad:
[Nexus One Accessories] MonkySlap:
I had that armband at first and it was alright. The N1 is just a little taller then the Iphone so it wasnt a perfect fit and plastic on the front wasnt flush to the screen so using the screen was a little difficult but not too bad. I have since bought the tuneband and like it alot better. The arm band is longer on this one so its more confortable for me. Im not sure why you would care about if the camera is accesible unless you want to take upclose shots of your guns without taking it out of the armband lol.
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
lol, thanks for the opinion. I'll be sure to pick up a tuneband.
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Best. Idea. Ever.
[Nexus One Accessories] knudsen19:
Sorry if this a bit OT, but I have been looking for something like this for quite a while, but I do not have the N1, but the HTC Desire.

I know that the two phones hardware-wise are practically the same, but there's minor diffrences posted here:

N1:

Width: 59.8 mm

Depth: 11.5 mm

Height: 119 mm

Htc Desire:

Width: 60 mm

Depth: 11,9 mm

Height: 119 mm

So will it fit, as it's less than half a cm diffrence at the depth? And how about the button layout, it seems the tuneband will cover over the Desire´s push-buttons. In case it will fit and it wont cover the buttons I might get it :)
[Nexus One Accessories] Gabewithkungfugrip:
Thanks for all the info yall.

I was really on the fence about the Tuneband. If I was just going to the gym I'd say this would be perfect. However, I do mostly trail running so I think I have a need for protection that the open face won't suffice. Plus, it can be really foggy here so I'd be worried about the wetness.

I think I'm going to opt for the iArmBand for the better protection:

http://www.amazon.com/iArmBands-ArmBand-T-Mobile-Android-gPhones/dp/B0017KCZWI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Has anyone tried this?

Also, for anyone reading who is shopping around for armbands, DO NOT buy the Tune Belt armband in the link below. They say it fits the N1 in the product description... BUT they also say that the max height for devices is 4.5 inches. The nexus is too tall for it.

http://www.amazon.com/Tune-Belt-Armband-iPhone-Blackberry/dp/B002NL2WYQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
Yeah i'm undecided too. I really want an armband for my (soon to be) Nexus One. I've been looking at the one of in the title post and the iarmband one that gabe posted. Anybody care to help? =\
[Nexus One Accessories] Gabewithkungfugrip:
So I just got my iArmband. The N1 fits nicely. Not too tight, not too loose. You can see the extra little velcro strap for cable management in the first pic. The hole for the headphones jack was too far off to the side so I had to operate as you can see in the second pic. The original hole is just like the other little round one in the pic. I'm not too worried about the material ripping where I cut it. It's neoprene and should hold up. There are two identical holes on the bottom side with a longer rectangular hole in the middle for the usb jack. I am able to use the touch screen well enough that changing songs or whatever during my run shouldn't be too hard. The volume rocker is pretty hard to get to because of the side seam but you can do it. So far I am very pleased with the quality and comfort. I'll report back if it falls apart or something. :p
[Nexus One Accessories] JHaste:
Hey everyone, been using the tuneband for a few days now and its pretty good for the money as far as i can tell... I would prefer a neoprene armband but this one is elastic and wide enough that its not a huge bother...

The silicone case is not attached to the strap itself so technically you get a silicone case with the phone as well if you are looking for a cheap case solution...

the screen protector is not too shabby as well for a cheap screen protector

My only real gripe is its susceptibility to water/sweat... i sweat my ass off when I am running (it gets hot in the valley lol) or in the gym... i had a lot of condensation on the screen and the back of my phone was a bit wet after i took it out of the silicone case after i was done...

stability wise, the phone shuffled around a bit while i was running, it doesnt have a lot of support on the back to really keep it from shifting its wait around... this was another let down...

overall i would give it about a 8/10
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
That's odd, I sweat like crazy when I'm doing cardio and my phone is always completely dry when I take it out of the tuneband. I also have a skinomi protector on it, but that is dry as well. Weird.
[Nexus One Accessories] MaximReapage:
Less than half a mm you mean? Yeah, I don't see why it wouldn't work. I'm sure you can return it if it doesn't?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Howi42:
I am using WM 6.5. Install a .tsk theme is no problem, just copy it to the Windows folder. But when I try to install a theme which comes as a .cab file, I can install it, but it does not appear in the selection list later.

Anything I missed out ?

Thanks, Wolfgang
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dirk:
The tsk is only one part of the theme. It has the wallpapers and registry settings. The cab is needed to install the tsk along with the png images that the theme uses and to which the registry settings point to. If the theme is failing to install correctly from the cab then you have a problem.

Try uninstalling the theme and manually deleting the associated tsk from the windows directory. If the theme fails to uninstall properly and refuses to reinstall then a hard reset is the only option at that stage.
[General Questions and Answers] olly230:
I've been seeing the same page on Nvidias site for 6months now.

(nvidia.co.uk tegra_smartphones)

Tegra in a mobile phone is where its at, (or will be)

but when?

Because I couldn't wait any longer I've now got my self the desire.

(Orange gave me one for 15/mnth so I couldn't say no)

Does anyone here know any more fact, as when the tregra chip ends up in a phone that will truly be the next generation of mobiles

i had the HTC elf - 200 (255) mhtz

then I got the HD - 566

now i have Desire- 1ghtz

So tegra better deliver on the promises

dual core, Full HD, batterylife in days.

mix that with 4g reception and you have the perfect interface for teh 'cloud'

SO the near future is where you carry round your communication devies (and CPU) with you all the time and just plug it into what ever is around.

Why I'm posting this , I don't know. I'm just a bit annoyed at myself for not being able to wait for this tegra momnet and now I'm tied in with this contract.
[General Questions and Answers] Badwolve1:
Don't be dissapointed, you have a great phone, tegra isn't gonna be amazing for a while yet, you will be able to watch great video on your desire (with a great intterface :D)

Enjoy what you have, and when you contract ends, get a HTC Tegra Desire Thingy ;)
[Desire General] Cleargrey:
Once I picked up my phone and it was off. And I was pretty sure I didn't drop it so I thought it must be accidentally turning off.

About 5 days ago I almost jumped out of my skin when I had my first, albeit minor, drop of my precious immaculate Desire. I did the hot-potato juggle and dropped it literally only about 5cm of the table. But not straight down, it was sort of proppelled at an angle about 40cm across my glass desk.

I picked it up. Pressed the power button to wake the screen. The phone started to boot up. Hmmmmmmm.....

Just now, I dropped the phone down my swopping desk leg to a carpeted floor which has a rug (which is even bunched up) over the carpet. I.e. it had a relatively smooth fall to a cushy landing.

Picked it up. Pressed the power button. The phone started to boot up. Hmmmmmm....

All of my previous devices would have survived these very minor falls. In fact, they would have survived a lot harder falls with only scratches if it hit a hard floor. I once was running at full speed trying to get out of a thunderstorm, only to hear a noise to my left. I looked down (still running) to see my Nokia E71 had decided to leave my pocket and slide across the tarmac pavement. It was only scratched (which annoyed me because it was my first proper scratch after almost 2 years!) but it was still on.

Don't get me wrong, I still love my phone. But it does, at least mine does, seem a bit delicate.
[Desire General] JupiterDroid:
it may have a auto shutdown when subjected to shock, mind you when i dropped my phone (thank god for gel based covers) it stayed on, and i dropped it from about 6ft, lol
[Desire General] Cleargrey:

Does anyone know of an app that changes the behaviour of the powerbutton? I keep activating the screen while it's in my pocket...
[Desire General] benko286:
Not possible, and how the hel you manage to turn it on all the time?!?

Never happened to me!
[Desire General] zaphyr:
perhaps my button is more sensetive? I think it happens when I put it in my pocket, when I push it down I either touch it with my finger, or if the phone is upside down, it gets pressed down against the bottom of the pocket. Sometimes I think I press the button when I take the phone out of my pocket.

I have noticed it's turned on when I take it out, and once it even took a photo.... I tried the LockBot app, but it seems it doesn't work every time, so I had to return to the standard. I might try to get the paid version, when/if I get that option at any time.

So, I'd like to have an app that would change the powerbutton. E.g. hold it down for 2 sec, click it twice, or something, to activate the screen.

Short answer: no. There are good solutions for this already. Use the Skyfire Browser or Opera10 Mobile...
[HD2 General] a13x4nd3r:
i just not satisfied with the skyfire rendering speed as its server side rendering. which i think just display what the server display CMIIW. the opera use the flash lite 3.1 (CMIIW again) which cannot open all kind of flash. so its will be very usefull if the hd2 support flash 10. can we port the n900's flash 9.4?????

Im looking to make animated wallpaper for the HD2 but trying to figure out were do I start. I know there has been a few people here making them but the stuff I've seen isn't what im looking to do.

I'm looking for something in the Nexus One range, but without it being LIVE, just animated. While browsing the HD2 animated walls, there is only 3 and they are .png. Animated .pngs. When I load a .png as a animated wallpaper, it doesnt animate, just stays on the first frame. So my question is, what else is the HD2 doing to make the walls animate?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] skilty:
I started having a look at this too..

The pngs aren't animated. They act as the background for the animation wallpaper... the actual animations are run by a scripted manila file (don't ask me which one, I did find a thread with the details of this script but you'll have to search for it) and a bunch of manila files for the pngs.

The scripted file tells the manila pngs how to "animate" i.e which directions they go, sizes, speed etc. You can edit the script to change the "animations" and also change the manila pngs for pngs of your choice.

You'll need to get the scripted file and the relevant manila files from your windows folder on your device. If you do a search for animated wallpapers on the forum there's a few threads telling you which files are needed and how to edit them. CFC editor/M9 Editor etc

hope that helps and best of luck
