I once tried to put all the needed files on the main storage. it worked. if you have enough free space it will work!!!:)
[Nexus One Accessories] xguntherc:
Hello everyone. I know this has probably been a long debated thing. But I'm wondering what everyone here thinks.

Who all uses a Screen Protector like Zagg's Invisible Shield, BSE, BodyGuardz, or Clear Protector? I always have a HORRIBLE time installing them. Just tried again and it is not easy. I feel like I'd rather just go without. The screen looks and feels much better. I know the Droid has scratch resistant Gorilla Glass, but the N1 is something different. I've seen video's of it Not scratching at all during tests.. I'm worried that over time it will get little hairline scratches.

Thoughts?
[Nexus One Accessories] cm1ck:
Tried a few screen protectors. Hated them. I have some hairline scratches now which bothers me, BUT, the feel of the Nexus One is still irreplaceable in my personal opinion. For what it's worth, I am factoring in the low resale value of my N1 - as it is engraved with my name - and I feel that the potential value adjustment from the hairline scratches is marginal, as I really still love the look and feel of the fully exposed phone, and the hairline scratches are only visible in direct sunlight.
[Nexus One Accessories] di2356:
I hate the feel of screen protectors. but i also hate how the n1's glass feels in humid conditions (always, im from nyc) - youre finger simply doesnt slide. so i got dcmugens matte screen protector. It reduces the screen quality slighty, though everything is just as readable. but ur finger slides awesomely. also you get better visibilty in sunlight. and obviously the protection of a screen protector. i recommend.
[Nexus One Accessories] lilchip85:
i have a body guard. i bought it at the mall and they installed it for me. it felt like crap the first few days i played with it but now it's like i don't even know it's there.
[Nexus One Accessories] hellbringer626:
I also use Body Guardz screen protector (just screen) I don't notice it and the surface isn't grippy like some screen protectors (invisible shield)

I can try scratching the protector and not leave marks, and its very clear.
[Nexus One Accessories] xguntherc:
Well I've had invisible shield and also Clear Protector.. Clear Protector are just like Zagg's but cheaper and have less orange peel look and slide better. they are on ebay..

I'm fine with using them, but the screen is amazing without one.

Who thinks the N1 is Safe to use without one?
[Nexus One Accessories] oncl0wd9:
Ive had 2 zagg protectors on mine. seems each time they install it, it end up sucking worse and worse each time, peeling, bubbles, etc etc. I like zagg because I dropped my mytouch and peeled the protector off and it was perfect. I decided to install my own zagg screen protector not going to lie the screen is awesome without it but I'd rather protect it after all the $$$$$ spent on it.
[Nexus One Accessories] xguntherc:
yea the job on my ipod touch, and my G1 was perfect, but I had the same Invisible shield stand by my house try twice on my N1 and it was a terrible job each time.
[Nexus One Accessories] plbelanger:
I have the official HTC Nexus One screen protector that is now carried in T-Mobile stores. With tax $16
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
using a $1 protector on my screen, saved it from 3 bad scratches so far
[Nexus One Accessories] ogdobber:
when it comes to screen protectors, the best ones come from china....and the cheaper the better. the ones sold here in the US are "rubbery" and your finger tends to "hang up" when sliding on the screen.

the china ones are also a cinch to put on.

example 3x-Screen-Guard-Protector-Film-Google-Nexus-One-HTC
[Nexus One Accessories] xguntherc:
and you've used those same ones. How is the durability. I've used cheaper ones that aren't invisible shield or similar brands, but they tend to get scratched much easier. Thats why I go back to the better ones.
[Nexus One Accessories] Carloswithac:
Nope.

10 char.
[Nexus One Accessories] David Horn:
Had a Hero for nearly a year without a screen protector. Carried loose in my pocket with keys etc and no scratches at all. I think we've been made paranoid after years of soft plastic resistive touchscreens.

No screen protector on the N1 for me.
[Nexus One Accessories] tuan209:
None. I treat my phones like crap, and when its ready to die, Ill just get the next best thing.

I think its ridiculous how people put on screen protectors and large cases. It takes away the feeling of the phone.
[Nexus One Accessories] Sistum Id:
I used to do the screen protector thing but when they started to peel or grab my finger, I diecided to not use them anymore. Been few months and my screen is good as the day I pulled it out of the box.

Edit: I do keep mine in the Google sleeve when its not in use.
[Nexus One Accessories] ChillRays:
poll please
[Nexus One Accessories] JHaste:
I ordered the Tuneband to work out with and it came with a screen protector... went on super easy and its actually not too bad at all... i have no gripes with it at all
[Nexus One Accessories] Zenoran:
no need! this isn't an iphone... ive had this thing since launch and not a single scratch ANYWHERE... my iphone scratched the 2nd day I had it... got a new screen on it and scratched again... nexus is the most durable phone ive ever owned and I love that it doesn't need extra crap to protect it.
[Nexus One Accessories] oncl0wd9:
The one i bought at t-mobile didnt cover the full screen.. Does yours?
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
I've had my N1 since day 2 and have not used a screen protector. I have no scratches that I can see but I ALWAYS use my android sleeve.
[Nexus One Accessories] SugarMouth:
No screen protector here, screen does not have one scratch on in but I keep my phone clear of anything abrasive.
[Nexus One Accessories] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
I have 3 scratches on my nexus, i regret not getting a screen protector so bad but now i have the ghost armor/invisishield thingy
[Nexus One Accessories] online142154:
I put the zagg protector on everything but the screen. I feel better about my investment with a little protection.

I don't know what some of you are doing to scratch the screen.. its glass and will not scratch unless you have too much diamond bling on your hands .:p
[Nexus One Accessories] pzumk:
No I don't. The screen is scratch resistend.
[Nexus One Accessories] plbelanger:
Nope, just the viewable screen area.
[Nexus One Accessories] Zenoran:
wow how did you manage that?

I've seen scissors ran across the screen on the nexus with no scratching... youtube convinced me to never put anything on my screen and I'm yet to see anything scratched. But then again, I'm not really too scared about it because that's why I have squaretrade. :)
[Nexus One Accessories] Rusty!:
I use the free one that that came with my Tough Case, seems fine. Doesn't drag or detract from the screen.
[Nexus One Accessories] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
I know for a fact one was dropping it on rocks.. Yes i know :(:mad:

The others im not quite sure, i do a very good job at making sure my nexus has its own pocket so im not sure :eek:
[Nexus One Accessories] connery916:
I have a screen protector from Skinomi. It was a challenge to put on properly (with no air bubbles) because you have to use a liquid solution to prepare the adhesive. Once installed it is pretty much invisible, except when the screen is turned off. I think that as long as you always put your phone in a pocket with no keys, coins, etc then it would probably be fine without it. I want to keep mine in mint condition so I don't have too much trouble selling it later on (it'll probably be difficult enough as it is).
[Nexus One Accessories] herrwinkler:
I've bought a number of them on Amazon and haven't really seen any quality differences. I got a $10 one and the 3 for $2.99 and there is no difference. I just don't like the ones with the notch cut out for the sensors because the top corner where the notch is comes up. There is no reason for that notch.
[Nexus One Accessories] thisisnitwit:
seidioonline .com sells screen protectors for the nexus one

These are the only screen protector's I've ever bought and I love'm, They do scratch though. I've replaced mine twice now. I'm about to buy another 2 pack, it's been 6 months since I bought my Nexus one and the last 2 pack of screen protectors

I would recommend against buying their clips though, the springs pop out easily.
[Nexus One Accessories] milomak:
i have had this sitting in my cupboard for 2 months now. it just seems like hard work to install. and also the time they recommend you don't touch the phone for bothers me a bit.
[Nexus One Accessories] frozengash:
i have the bse total body, dont know i really need the whole body but will always keep a screen protector. at over $500 bucks i'll be a little more cautious then with an ipod or whatever. htc has always made quality stuff so the screen might resist more than we think.
[Nexus One Accessories] vincom2:
I'm paranoid and bought clarivue screen protectors. Very nice; I can't even tell there's anything on my screen.

Used my phone for about a week before the screen protectors arrived without any scratches though.
[Nexus One Accessories] C64c:
I use standard screen protectors from eBay. Only a few pounds but worth it. The only other protection I use is the android pouch provided with the phone.
[Nexus One Accessories] yayramen:
I am using Ghost Armour. It takes about 20 minutes to get on (you leave it with them) It costs about 20 bucks for the screen, or you can get the whole phone for around 30 or 40 I think. It comes with a lifetime warranty to never scratch, smudge, move, or bubble. And if it does, you bring it in, and rather than pay the whole 20 some odd dollars, it's just the 5 dollar replacement fee.
[Nexus One Accessories] pityr:
The ones from the ATT or Tmo stores are garbage. They have a weird weave finish to them and they tend to distort the screen. They also only cover the main screen area and not the whole piece of glass.
[Nexus One Accessories] torchedlh:
I've always been a huge fan of Martin Fields. they are a little pricey, $12 + shipping but they have always been really high quality, and tough. However, for the first time, I received one with a scratch on it. I emailed them and they promptly sent out another one!
[Nexus One Accessories] NexuSix:
No screen protector or any kind of protection on my Nexus One, I've had my Nexus One for over six months now and I have yet to get a scratch on the screen or body, I feel at this point if it gets a scratch I'll just buy a new phone
[Nexus One Accessories] gtrplr71:
I have used the tmo protectors they suck I have a zagg on it now I bought a couple for 3.00 a piece on sale from zagg.com they work good as long as you get bubbles out I have done about 10 wet installs for myself and friends

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bron019:
My question is that if you'r area does not have 4g does do you still have to pay the extra ten dollars for the 4g even tho there is no 4g ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heygrl:
The $10 is for premium data and not 4G. So yes it's required even if you aren't in a 4G area.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bron019:
oh wow that sucks. idk if i can get the evo now
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mrkumquat:
especially from a g1 user's perspective, for me it seems the slide has noticably worse 3g reception; anyone else notice the same?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] turboyo:
Yes it does, I'm sure t-mobile will send out radio firmware updates as they did for the g1. I know the last one gave me a big boost. For now you can choose for it to use 3g only and you'll see a lot less dropping to edge, I have mine set like this and sometimes have very low signal but haven't found a spot yet where it was completely dead.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] N1M1TZ:
Hmm, that's weird. I used to have the G1 and as soon as I clapped my hand due to my phone getting atleast 1bar of 3G signal it would drop to E. Which meant me not clapping anymore. But with this phone I am clapping once again.:D:D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mrkumquat:
as I understood the g1 radio update mainly made the phone hold onto a weaker 3g signal longer rather than any substantial improvement in overall reception; where I work I get no signal at all if I lock 3g only whereas with my g1 I had nearly 100% 3g uptime, the g1 might not have been state of the art but it's cell radio sure was pretty impressive compared to every other phone I've owned
[myTouch 3G Slide General] tmobilewinguser:
i get better reception than what i did with my mytouch 3g and way better uplaod and download speeds to
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Digitaldreamer7:
I second this, my G1 gets crappy 3G reception even on the most recent radio. I'm picking up my MT3GS tomorrow.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Gramon:
My G1 was next to my old Razr in having near perfect signal. My slide drops out of 3G quite often, even at my house sitting right next to my wife with my old G1 that is still on 3G.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] detox702:
I've noticed this. It seems to have horrible horrible 3g reception. I was in a tiny guard shack, maybe 10'x10', walls were thin, and most of the side walls were made of glass patio doors. Inside the shack I would get E all the time, I could literally step 6" outside of the shack, right on the curb, and I'd get 4 bars of 3G.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
in my building i get 3g in the elevator, must be practically living right under a tower!!

my AT&T phones used to drop the signal as soon as the elevator doors closed.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Thongvilay:
Upstate NY here and I'm getting the in/out 3G with Tmo, wish they would get their 3G working right before even trying to consider releasing 4G (as I was told by a rep)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] slinky1914:
My phone can drop in and out of 3G and 2G. If u put the phone on wcdma only it doesn't happen. Mine will hold 3G all day long without a problem and it downstairs burn as much battery either.

Sorry double post
[myTouch 3G Slide General] RockAw11:
a few question:

Does anyone know when the radio update will be available?

How does one go about getting the radio update?

Will the radio update work on a rooted phone?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] laphoneuser:
Really??

Are you kidding me??!! I am so surprised (and disappointed) to read this.

First, the Nexus One, then the HD2 (which I owned), and now the MyTouch Slide?? I think I even heard that the Incredible having these issues.

What is it with HTC phones losing reception?

It's one of the reasons (but not the only one) I returned the HD2. I've been strongly considering the MyTouch Slide, but after hearing this, I have to scratch it off the list until/if/when they fix it.

For those who already own this phone, I sincerely hope they fix it for you.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Anartic:
I've noticed weaker 3G speeds also while at work. I've just activated wcdma only it's a lot better now, but I'm at home right now, so I'll post an update tomorrow to see of it is better at work
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Lecherous:
I've noticed it really sucks. I'm sitting in my kitchen right now, where I always had a strong 3G signal on my G1, yet now I don't have one. If Tmobile doesn't fix this soon, I'm considering canceling my contract and going elsewhere.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] civicdrivr:
Ive been having issues for the past 2 months or so (dating back to the G1 btw) where Id be on 3G with full service surfing the internet then everything would stop loading, Id drop down to GPRS and it would stay like that for a few minutes. Then 3G would pick back up again.

Ive been having that issue ever since they started rolling out HSPA+. The TMO reps keep saying that it shouldnt happen, but it is. And not just on my phone. My brothers G1 and now his slide did the same thing and my friends MT3G did it as well.

And this issue isnt in a localized area. Its happening all over VA. Im a roving technician and I get this issue wherever 3G is. If the area only offers Edge, I dont have any issues. When the 3G holds though, its decently quick (check signature).

/rant
[myTouch 3G Slide General] dynamikd:
Tmobile isn't releasing 4g, is expanding its HSPA+ network, which is technically faster than 4g. Be careful when you ask the reps anything. I have had reps tell me things that I know for a fact weren't true but majority of them don't know any better.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] dynamikd:
Take what you read here with a grain if salt. Yes some people experience some 3g coverage issues but that doesn't affect everyone and there are a lot of factors to consider. Nonetheless, if you scratch this phone off your list, you'd be missing out on a great device.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mrkumquat:
forgot about this thread... turns out due to some strange coincidence at the time I first bought my slide the cell tower where I worked went on the fritz and the tech people weren't updated on it yet. I have 3g again at work but still notice that I drop to edge a bit more often than with my old g1... and the data works absolutely horridly on edge with latency issues and timeouts that the g1 never did. oh well, still a solid device although I have my upgrade credit saved for whatever emerald/vision/vanguard madness TMO has planned for this fall :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Wabster6:
How is it compared to your N1

also ... how do you get to the option where it lets you choose wcdma ??
[myTouch 3G Slide General] soybeanthief:
Go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode, its right there its set to GSM/WCDMA auto by default, there you can switch to GSM Only(2G Or Edge) or WCDMA only(3G)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
Ok so I use mainly 2.1 sense build running at 633mhz cpu speed, and have had no probs with SOD, or overheating whatsoever. I have read of people going 787mhz, and leads me to wonder, how much can the processor in our TP2's take? The reason I ask is because by overclocking in Android, I have experienced significant performance increase and little to no ill effect, and it looks like at some poin oc will be possible with Windows. I am hoping that oc will be key to making Windows run as smooth as it ought to, escpecially with the severely limited amount of ram these phones have. If oc makes the sense build run smooth enough to be used comfortably, I feel same is possible with Windows, but how fast is too fast ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
u mean me..lol. good question though. ;-) I've had no ill wffects or drawbacks

-------------------------------------

Sent from my AOSP on XDANDROID MSM
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Xodium:
I believe demandarin got it up to ~760MHz with no ill effects, the only issue being if your phone goes to sleep, it'll freeze and you'll have to boot back into WinMo and run haret again. And as far as my testing goes, there isn't a significant hit to battery life.

Also, I'd recommend using the AOSP build (the one without Sense). I tried running the Sense build and it's much, much slower. I also hear you get less available RAM for Android use (and ATK reported this, too). Plus, with the overclock applied, the AOSP 2.1 build just *screams*.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
With the battery fix in startup.txt (htc_battery_smem.fake=1 /if thats not it exactly its very close, you know which one I mean), I never get sleep of death. I know aosp is faster than the sense build, but sense runs pretty good for me at 633, and its so nice looking. I also have the sense build on my sd with sense disabled, I was going for basically a aosp build only with the sense build's 7 pages but it seems when you disable sense, you lose the 2 extra pages with it. I have had some freezes with sense due to apparently running it out of available ram, but anytime it does that, it just goes back to the klinux/htc bootscreen and starts right back up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
If you want AOSP with more screens you should just use AOSP and get a different launcher. Sense is HORRIBLY slow, and even when you have it disabled that build is SUPER slow. I've got 110mb free RAM with AOSP running Launcher Pro without a buggy overclock (that really when you run benchmarks on the OC it doesnt help THAT much), and it blows that Sense build out of the water. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brunodemelo:
just to serve as a comparison: my tilt 2 running NRGZ28's latest titanium ROM I've only got 70 mb of free ram. Are you sure you have 110? that means your phone is only using about 40% of ram just sitting there. With WM6.5 and sense 2.5 I would hover around 65% after a fresh reboot and with titanium i am at about 60%....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yes, I'm sure. Linux leaves a much smaller footprint.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brunodemelo:
wow thats amazing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
I have the prolauncher one on my sd too, just havent set it up yet. Thats my next one to do. I have 2.01, 2.1 aosp, sense, and 2.1sense with no sense.

I have a 16 gb card so I figured why not. I really like the way sense looks, but I didnt know it was that heavy. Thats cool kinda gives me motivation to mess with it, I was stallin on it cause I hate goin thru fixing the time again.

Hey is there some way to build into the droid utility app the option to choose which build you wanna run, I assume it could be done by naming the anboot folders to andboot1 ,andboot2, etc. and then pointing the droid utility to whichever one is chosen right ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yup, we have actually discussed an online XML database, which would allow the app lots more options. Me and Piet have a huge list of things we want to add already, we just need to actually get the motivation and time to do it. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
+f course the Aosp build runs great right out da box. But with the overclock, it screams. Did various tests to see how much of a difference in improvement. I don't just go by benchmarks. I look for real time application. ;-) live wallpapers stock move ok. With the overclock, they fly all over and off da screen. The UI is wayy faster and more responsive. Programs load up faster. Tested different games b4 and after. After the overclock, games ran at almost normal speeds, Since hardware 3d not completly wrkn. Ill eventually go bck to stock speeds further along in development of this build. I got an early start Reefer, 4:20, U Ready? ;-)

Hi all,

Trying to unroot my Hero. I have the fresh 2.1 on it and would like to go back to the sprint 1.56 release.

I have tried going into fastboot USB and I still keep getting the error 170 error.

No matter what I seem to try I keep getting the 170 error.

I have HTC Sync on the computer. I also have Fresh Kitchen installed.

If it matters, I am using windows 7 x64

Does anyone have any ideas what I can try next?

Thanks
