I think it's an alternator whine like Humpa said. I'll look for a fix, maybe i can figure something out. It whines more when I hit the gas, if it is idling then I can't really hear it.
[Desire Accessories] jonmall1441:
I recently purchased a Genuine HTC pouch (after the PDAir case got on my nerves) and was looking at getting a hard case that would also fit in the pouch.

I was wondering if anyone has tried the

CASE-MATE Barley there case and if it fits in the pouch I just purchased.

Thanks

Hi

I'm taking a vacation to the US this summer (California and Nevada more exactly) and I wanna be able to use Gmaps for navigation and finding, hotels etc. on the go.

Do you know where I could get a prepaid sim with internet flatrate? it would be nice if I could make calls with it too.
[Networking] djteotancolis:
at&t is 20$ for 100mb and i think t-mobile is 99cents an hr(not sure)
[Networking] josealb:
not bad :D will I be able to use both networks on an european nexus one? where can i get the prepaid cards?
[Networking] djteotancolis:
yes you can but u wont get 3g tho
[Networking] josealb:
ahmm ok, is there any carrier i can get 3g with?
[Networking] djteotancolis:
i dont know the nexus one bands...but these are the maor prepaid that will work with your nexus
[Networking] josealb:
ok thanks :D

so I just have to find an at&t store..
[Networking] gsvnet:
There are two different versions of the Nexus One.

One has the bands for T-Mobile 3G while the other has the AT&T 3G bands.

I am assuming you have the one with bands for T-Mobile 3G. T-Mobile offers monthly service without a contract...depending on how long your vacation is going to be, it might be worth going for that instead, as you could get 'unlimited' data, text, and a good amount of minutes at a low cost for your stay.
[Networking] djteotancolis:
the european nexus is different i think :P

[EVO 4G General] EVOKeith:
Is there any special way to close an application that you are in, or does tapping the home button close it? I want to make sure that I am not using up processor with crap I'm not even using at the time.
[EVO 4G General] hchavarria:
To close apps you would need to download a task manager from Market. The way Android is meant to behave is that it leaves apps open until another apps needs it's memory and then it automatically closes other background apps.
[EVO 4G General] EVOKeith:
I downloaded Advanced Task Killer. Any pros or cons to this app or is there one better?
[EVO 4G General] intristin:
That's what I use and it works well for me. As you can choose which apps to leave open and which ones to kill. And it remembers so you don't have to select everytime.

Is there a better one? Maybe, but that one works well, is simple, quick, and easy to use.
[EVO 4G General] JustinLoe:
Here is why you DON'T NEED a task manager..... do yourself a favor and read..

[EVO 4G General] EVOKeith:
Thanks for the help guys. I appreciate it.
[EVO 4G General] DiNoise:
I'll double confirm that YOU DO NOT NEED a task manager (unless u need to kill a crashing app if u dont wanna reboot)..

That's how Android is, "background running" apps do not affect phone's performance, cuz they're not really "running" in the background.

Some apps (like Dolphin HD browser) have EXIT/CLOSE button when u press menu
[EVO 4G General] thorpe24:
Also hitting back instead of home will usually "close" the app

The only problem I'm facing is that I lost bluetooth notification icons. Any clue on how to fix this if it is related to the port in any way? Used to work in Amarullz Rhodium port.
[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
The Qilin Phone Canvas requires Taskbar Icon Mgr for the BT icons. I made a CAB of one here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5427896&postcount=307

Does this Dialer have Landscape support?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Amarullz's hack is used, so it would be as it was.
[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
I don't think I understand your answer. Some of the Phone Canvases have Landscape support, but some do not - the Rhodium Phone Canvases generally work in Landscape, but some of the newer ones (Leo?, Qilin, Huashan) do not. amarullz phcanvga.exe doesn't have anything to do with whether the Dialer has native Landscape support, does it?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Even if it does, it uses amarullz's hack, thus is not fully ported. That is what I mean.
[Windows Mobile] daeinnor:
Thanks Captain_Throwback! Sure your cab restored the missing bluetooth notification icons, though it defeats jmckeejr's chrome theme hack of Brian's toolbar. But, still appreciate your work on it.

Unfortunately, it doesn't support landscape mode: manually or by using "flip it". Good query, I never tried until you brought it up. Nevertheless, as I seldom use the dialer in landscape mode, I'm quite happy with it. Thanks again!

[HD2 General] TechnoHippie:
I'm trying to figure out what these are and how to ensure I get good connection speeds.

First off most of the time my connection is SLOW SLOW SLOW. I'm using a custom ROM (Josh's 1.3). Anyway when I test it I'm lucky to see 100kps & I'm in Honolulu, HI so I should be getting good speeds.

At one point I tested and I was getting like 600-700kps. Then the other day when I was teathering I tested and seemed to get right around 4mb speeds.

Well now I'm back to the slow ass speeds again. WTF!!!

So I see 3 different types of internet connections - MMS (which I know what that is), Data, and Internet. WTF is the diff between "data" and "internet".

If I use one of the HD2 Tweak programs I can setup the phone so that these connections are always on - but which ones should that be?

Then - I also have voip setup on the phone. It will say "available" when I boot up the phone - but as soon as something else uses a data-connection (like the weather thing updating) - then this goes back to "no service" - so I'm also convinced that this is due to the 2 types of connections (data vs internet).

So anyway - how the hell do I make this damn phone use the one connection that is fast - and which one is it?

Thanks!

Waiting for official android 2.1 is finally over !

I already have it, rooted version and it is really fast and nice.

I have run benchmark test and our Hero is rated very bad, with 220 points.

Nexus one has for example over 1250 points. But 2.2 version

Is there a hope for us to get 2.2 in next few months because that would be a huge step forward? (2.2 is 450% faster than 1.1 as you know)

Does anyone know how I can get them to honor this after I purchased at Best Buy?

I spoke with Sprint a few weeks back when I was making sure I would get approved for the EVO since my credit isn't great. Sure enough I was eligible for up to 5 lines with no deposit. I then asked about the employee referral program and the woman proceeded to tell me that after I activate my phone to call the number she gave me and give them the info.

I tried doing that today and they said, they couldn't do it unless they were the ones opening my account. Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
i spoke to the EPRP people over the phone and i asked them if i could get my evo from best buy or radio shack and get the EPRP plan, they said that you can only do it when you set up the line and that only the sprint stores, the EPRP website, or calling the EPRP line would be able to do that. so i really doubt that you will get them to honor it. i just ordered my 3 evos last night around midnight and i figure i can wait the extra 2 days so that i wont have to worry about any hassles with my EPRP plan.
[EVO 4G General] Kllian:
bestbuy wont honor anything. when i spoke with the people at BB and Sprint they both told me that I could later change the plan to take advantage of the discounts through my work.
[EVO 4G General] v2tech:
That's not good. Anyways I think I will return in 30 days!
[EVO 4G General] apollooff320:
I tried at BB and it Failed. We get punished for having discounted plans and are force to pay Sprint $299 and worry about the stupid MIR going through.
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
well you can either be patient and wait till it gets ent in the mail and pay the extra 100 and get the phone for 300, AND still get the 100 dollars back through the rabate..BUT you would be saving over 700 dollars over the life of your contract....i wouldnt call that punishment....

OR you can save the hundres dollars and get it at best buy or radioshack for 200 and then pay those 700+ over the life of your contract... seems like a no brainer to me but some people just dont get it i guess....
[XPERIA X10 General] Pete S:
Hello

I was wondering whether anyone knows any apps or whether the X10 has anything built in that will open word or excel docs?

If I go into yahoo mail and download the doc to my phone, then try and open it with office suite or Documents to go (free) it says "this file appears to be an HTML file".

If I go into Astro and check the details of the file it says .doc or .xls.

I think I must be missing a step somewhere.

Any help would be handy.

Cheers Pete

I got my Evo for RS as soon as it opened. Once it was activated, I started downloading my favorite apps that I had on my Moment w/ 2.1. I have done every type of search I can think of in the Market, but I still can't find my two favorite apps: Launcher Pro and Quick Settings.

I even went on AndroLib.com and found both apps. I then scanned the QR codes and it could not be located in the Market. I also clicked on the market link, using the browser on my Evo, from the review of Launcher Pro on Android Central and couldn't find it.

Any one else having this problem? As a last resort I can make a backup of both apps from my Moment and then install it from the sd card to my Evo, but I would rather dl from the market.

Thanks for your help...

a handful of apps all of a sudden went missing today, apps o downloaded yesterday and reccommended to people, just up and gone. mostly good apps too. I guess the Evo put a strain on more than just Sprint's network

I'll also test for any up and coming devs out there. but i will give you guys some tips on which roms i choose and why.

1. Everything has to work. I use my exchange email, gps, wifi and maps on a regular basis.

2. I love having the ability to overclock but i dont really see a point for ridiculous frequencies. Its not like i'm running a gaming server from my phone. I have the ability to overclock to 825 mhz and still be stable with my current rom but i keep it at 710 for my battery life.

3. I love having different launchers, lock screens, status bars and things like that but live wallpapers are a no go. Every time i touch a live wallpaper my phone freezes and reboots.

Right now i am using ic3rom 2.7 because everything works and it has wired tethering.

If you guys can create a rom that everything works and do some extensive photoshopping it is almost guaranteed to be a hit.
