I have noticed that the selection of languages is now much more limited. I can no longer choose "English (Ireland)" as my input language. The result? -- My news feed now gathers news from the US instead of Ireland. It's not the end of the world, but if anybody knows a way I can increase the number of languages, I'd be happy.

Exchange calendar shows only one entry (out of many)

The Calendar, synced with Exchange every 5 Min shows only one entry, mail and contacts works great.

Battery usage of Mail is much higher then expected and drains the battery much faster then on previous build (where I used the CorpCal app for Exchange Cal sync).

I did reset to factory and tried again but got the same results.

Re: Some froyo findings.

I'm not having any of the problems that other people in this thread are having. Froyo increased the overall speed of my phone. Home screen sliding, dragging the notification bar, 3d app drawer no longer lag and stutter. I get a better signal now. I had problems with wifi on 2.1 when I bought a new N router. Switched back to the G router and problems went away.

Only tiny issue I see now is that the home screen seems a little less responsive to dragging, especially after closing an app. I feel like I have to touch the screen to activate the home screen and then I can slide it.

Also, File Uploads now present in the browser :D

[Nexus One General] jp_macaroni:
did they took out the silent phone option?

because I can't seem to find it and even when I hold the volume button down all the way for silent....its not there but only vibrate.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
There is now an extra setting in the the sound option regarding when the phone vibrates, you can have a completely silent mode, but the old volume rocker behaviour is gone, which is a shame.
[Nexus One General] cornwall:
Froyo is definitely great and wonderful, but I get this Market lag way too much ! It's unusable... Way too long...

Any clue ? It's been reported elsewhere and here too, but has anyone come up to a solution? Is it google-related ?

THX !
[Nexus One General] jp_macaroni:
yeah I see they added a silent option in there but when you select it..it goes into vibrate mode. lol
[Nexus One General] akirajds:
another small bug that was fixed,.. when i closed a program and i went back to the home screen the wallpaper wasn't in the right place,.. and when i would slide the screens it would snap back over to the correct place. now thats fixed too
[Nexus One General] jp_macaroni:
I heard the market is lagging but mine is fine and normal. I can download and update apps without hiccups.

my phone is unrooted if it matters.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Market doesn't seem to lag much for me either.

How long does it sit on 'loading' for those who have the lag?
[Nexus One General] akirajds:
also the screen can rotate to landscape the opposite direction now too
[Nexus One General] Lemim0uth:
Try "MoreLocale2", it lets you set custom local (for me it's "en-CH", which means phone in english, and country = Switzerland)
[Nexus One General] cornwall:
Loading on the market takes up to one minute, which makes updating an app a pain in tghe ass, cause it needs three screens ! Many devs also reported that.

I live in France, spend most of my time on WiFi at home, and have a non-rooted phone. I went from ERE27 to FRF50, nothing else...

Jee, that's weird and annoying...

I've had this phone since it released and I still haven't had that problem with the inverting. I don't know what's causing it on you guys phones but whatever it is it doesn't do it on any N1 I've used. I'm in no way calling you a liar I'm just wondering what it is. I've used 3 N1's and none of them do it to me at all. :/

They didn't take it out they just changed it, You have to change the vibrate settings in sound and display.

Am I the only one who is extremely happy that they changed the right slider to be able to set to Vibrate?!?! That was one of my main complaints. Second to the Random Music bug that's also been fixed :D

As far as slowness in the market, none for me. I don't think I have found a single flaw in this release. And I'm pretty picky. Sorry, I take that back. the LED notifications are gone but I can live without that until it's fixed/added.

So apparently we're using a pre-release version of Froyo, which could explain why some of us are having issues... I did notice this line in Andy Rubin's interview with Gizmodo (link on phandroid.com):

"...so there's a lot of iteration and what we are finding is innovation comes from all over the place. Like the Simplify Media guys, that was a company we acquired and now there stuff is in the Froyo release."

So it looks like we don't have a full release yet. Hopefully. :D

4. sound when device lock/unlock

5. camera UI changed, more easy to use, Exposure added (-2 to +2)

6. Navigation, although it says it's not yet available in my location...

7. twitter

I noticed that as well. I was looking at Logcat while browsing the market, it seems like the Market connection to the server times out and then it gets the info, really weird.

When booting, I see a message "not granting permission RECEIVE_COMPLETED_INTENTS" (or something like that) to 'com.android.vending' :o

Inverted would be nice. Get the antenna up (and away from mitts) while using anything 3g in portrait mode.

I do like the antenna at the bottom of my phone so I am not shooting RF directly into my brain while actually on a phone call. If I am going to cancerize something, I can more easily do without a mitt than I can a good portion of my brain, though there are those who'd say - meh - six to one, half dozen to the other.

Indeed, BT carkit sounds MUCH better, both the recepient and me calling.

Contacts Display (Last Name, First)

I'm afraid to ask, but is this new to 2.2?

When I first got my AT&T N1, I thought that I exhausted all options trying to display contacts Last Name First, so it's hard to believe that I missed such an obvious setting in the contacts app.

If it's new, then I would have expected to see more comments.

This is exactly what I'm talking about compared to other devices. With Flash installed or not, the smoothness of the scrolling is significantly worse than the 3GS and the HD2, and the HD2 is running off of Windows Mobile. It's just not a Superphone-like experience..

EDIT: To be fair, if I disable Javascript the scrolling on pages like amazon.com is much improved, but should that be necessary with a 1ghz processor, 512MB, and an update that touts 2x-5x improvement in speed? I just feel like the ~40 megaflops I'm getting with 2.2 should at -least- give me a similar experience as practically the same hardware (HD2) on an aging operating system (WinMo).
[Nexus One General] bobchadwick:
Same here.

One thing that's really annoying is how when you use a passcode lock, you also have to use the slide unlock.

One thing I really like that I don't think I've seen mentioned is that the font size is smaller for contacts. It makes it much easier to choose the right email address when a contact has multiple addresses.

I'm having problems with the browser. Like for example when I go to a web page and then when I type in another web site for some reason it opens it up in another window and it happens everytime I go from site to site and then when I click on the windows icon I have like 10 windows open from all the websites I've been to. Its weird and annoying also typing is a little buggy like when I hit the backspace key it will not delete the text unless I hit it a couple of times. I dunno if anybody else has this problem...

Screen Orientation

Hello guys...

The screen can automatically rotate to 90 and 270 degrees now

I dont know if you guys like this or not

But for me, it is little bit annoying.

I would prefer one direction rotation only just like in Eclairs.

Is there any way to change the setting?

Thanks in advance

i dont know about anyone else, but since updating from 2.1 to 2.2 on my n1 the bass in the sound is alot better. also sound quality.

Just don't rotate your phone, no?

Or did I miss something?

I think it's pretty neat that it does that now.

It would come in handy for left handed users :)
[Nexus One General] bobchadwick:
I don't know why they would have shown that if it weren't part of FroYo. I'm thinking it will come before the next release, but it's not quite ready yet. I mean, officially we aren't even supposed to be using FroYo.

Maybe he is like me, and holds it in a way so that it is slightly tilted to the right... before, not rotate, which was great, now it rotates, which is not desired. Personally, I held my N1 that way to make sure it didn't rotate the other way... now it rotates that way, which is a little annoying.

A month ago someone posted that froyo was going to implement more cache usage in the browser so it sounds like they did indeed implement this which is what you are experiencing. Not sure if that's good or bad though.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Many of us wanted this function because the notification bar is burning into the screen. With more rotation options now we can reduce this burn in of the pixels. The term for amoled screens is actually called image sticking and its permanent.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Where does it say they improved the frame rate and by how much?
[Nexus One General] miketlo:
One nasty thing that google fixed was a weird thing the browser did when you scrolled on a webpage. On 2.1 when you touch the screen the browser automatically downgraded the image quality to probably enable smooth scrolling and would only display the correct colors and quality once you let go but now even whenyou touch the screen the image quality is restored when you stop moving. Looks mush nicer :)
