Is the update file available somewhere? It's still legit. I had the option to update today at work but signal was bad so I waited until I got home. By then the update got pulled and I no longer had the update option. I'd like to get the new update on my phone since I heard it improves battery life considerably.

My money is that the phone bricking was a result of non-patient users who didn't let the update finish and/or those who blindly hit "accept" without doing the slightest amount of reading (like checking the version number vs. what they already have on the phone).... ie. Those who ran the update twice.
[EVO 4G General] ishydroid:
No root, no problems. I updated when it first came out. Haven't noticed anything different.
[EVO 4G General] gthing:
Not being able to keep your product in stock because the demand is so high I would say is a pretty good problem to have.
[EVO 4G General] evoxsin:
It would be great if they posted a link for a download. Palm would always put their updates on they website for download. Can any body get it from their build who downloaded it?

But what to download? I was referring to the official ota unpatched version. Also I'm uncertain how to boot the zip. The unpatched version is posted in the xda development section. But im lost on how to load the zip. Sorry I'm completely new to android. I'm a long palm user.

Considering iPhone 4s are sold out for the next few weeks (lines outside local AT&T / Apple stores for the second round of preorders this morning)...

And I imagine the same will be true for Verizon when it drops the Droid X...

All the "hot" phones are pretty much currently sold out.

I have the same mount. works ok. instructions say mount the disk on the upper portion of the case, i found the middle works better if you intend on using landscape mode for GPS or Video. If you put it near the top, it doesnt stay in landscape mode for long, it slips down.
[EVO 4G Accessories] chinot66:
I use something similar, but more flush against the car surface for the Evo.

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-UNIVERSAL-M...ccessories&hash=item45e943669b#ht_3019wt_1139
[EVO 4G Accessories] sidepart:
I tried the cheap car mount, but without the case. The disk adhesive wouldn't stick to the back of my EVO at all. Whenever I tried to lock the disk into the holder, it'd just twist off.
[EVO 4G Accessories] hkk:
How easy/tough is the crystal hard case to put on and remove? Everytime you get in the car, you'd have to put the phone in the case, and take it out of it, when you get out, right?
[EVO 4G Accessories] red man:
thats way too flush dos not give me the option to tilt and stuff.
[EVO 4G Accessories] derik123derik123:
I haven't gotten it yet. But i don't think that it'll be a major problem. It goes over the existing case. So i'm just going to put the disk on the clear cover, put that on the mount and whenever i get in my car just put it in the case.
[EVO 4G Accessories] c3hutson:
I just ordered a Seidio active case and the mount that the OP linked. I'm hoping that disc is small enough to not annoy me if it's on the case all the time, but we'll see I guess. I'm afraid it's going to cause some wobbling issues when the phone is sitting face up on my desk.

Edit: I was just thinking, it would be pretty stellar if seidio offered an "exoskeleton only" type of sale so you could just throw the disc on an extra skeleton to slip on when in the car only... Wishful thinking I'm sure.
[EVO 4G Accessories] topdnbass:
What do you guys think about this idea..

Get the same SoundGate mount but stuck the disc on the outer shell/exoskeleton of this two-piece case.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=699888

Then keep the exoskeleton in the car and when you want to use it as a mount just pop it into place..

I don't know how it feels in the hand without the exoskeleton though, and it wont be as secure but I had no intention of getting a case that strong, just a silicone one.

My main gripe is that I don't want to have a disc on my phone all the time...

edit: LOL just read the last post, seems like you were thinking the same thing..

Someone should contact seidio about that.
[EVO 4G Accessories] derik123derik123:
hah good call.

Yeah that's what i'm planning on. My OP shows what i bought for this.
[EVO 4G Accessories] monkeefied:
This is the setup I'm using with that exact case. I did have a problem with the disk sticking like someone mentioned earlier (I believe because of the ruberized texture on the case) so I epoxied the disk to the back. I can post picks of my setup tomorrow. Maybe a vid too.
[EVO 4G Accessories] topdnbass:
That'd be wonderful.

I feel like without the exo it'll look bad...

So a good video or couple pictures would be great, maybe even a short review. xD

[EVO 4G Accessories] evoflorida:
i bought a 4 finger capture (for the phone) with a swivel mount for $15 at AutoZone. dam swivel didn't work so i had to add some Metal putty to harden the swivel in place. $5

then when i stuck it to the windshield the glue on the pad to the mount came apart from the heat in the car. super glued it for $3. then the pad's glue to the windshield came apart because of the heat and weight. so i super glued it to the windhield.

with the 4 fingers it grabs the EVO good enoungh that it doesn't fall out AND i can drive around and shot a video of where i'm going. i offset the EVO a tad so the camera has a clear view.

i mounted it to the top of the windshield where the polarized screen is and the videos are coming out pretty good - no blown out skies and the clouds are pretty good. now there is a bright line blowning out the sky and clouds when driving up hill but i can live with that.
[EVO 4G Accessories] monkeefied:
Work's been busy the last few days and I've been too wiped to do anything after, so hopefully I can put something up tomorrow.

Update: the car was pretty hot the other day and when I went to put my phone in the "dock" the adhesive had softened up and the holder fell off of my mount, so I think I will be getting the epoxy out again. :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] leebo:
The EVO is my first Android phone, coming from a WinMo 6.1 HTC Fuze.

Is there a way to get the calender app or either of the two calender widgets included with the EVO to display your next appointment on the main home screen, like the Fuze did?

I know there is a tiny calender icon at the top of the screen if you have an appointment coming up, but I was hoping for something right on the home screen.

For instance, with the Fuze, if you had an appointment in three days, it would show that as your next upcoming appointment, allowing you to keep it in mind.

[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
I really couldn't be happier with my EVO(upgrading from a G1 and T-Mobile's less than impressive data network), but it does have it's flaws. None of which would ever keep me from buying one. Probably my biggest complaint is the styling of the rear camera. It just sticks out way too far in my opinion. It wouldn't be so bad if the actual lens cover was recessed a bit more. I really didnt want thicken the phone up with a plastic or sillicone case. I'm wondering if adding something to the bezel like a washer of some sort, would obstruct the camera when taking video or pictures. Just something I thought I'd throw out there.
[EVO 4G General] healthpellets:
that's what she said.

(sorry)
[EVO 4G General] ramiss:
Yeah that sounds good!....LOL..what?
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
There isn't much to say about it to be honest. This is how the Evo was designed and I doubt HTC will make any changes to future models. You know it sticks out like this so best thing you can do is either place it on a delicate surface or just have it with the kickstand on.
[EVO 4G General] distortedloop:
The camera on the HTC/Google Nexus One sticks out the same way. On both phones, the speakerphone speaker is right next to the camera lens. My theory for the Nexus One was that they did this intentionally so that the camera bezel would also serve as a way to elevate the speaker a little bit off the desktop to keep it from being muffled sounding when laid directly on the desk. Seems to be same with the EVO.

The only other reason would be they just couldn't get the optics on such a big lens into any thinner a space and rather than thicken the whole phone they just let it stick out. THIN IS IN these days.
[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
I agree, after my G1, thin is a welcomed feature. I guess nothing's perfect. I'm just glad I never got an iPhone.
[EVO 4G General] distortedloop:
I've got every model of the iPhone, including the iP4 -it's an impressive piece of hardware, the screen is absolutely gorgeous, really. There's just something about it that's so crisp and easy on the eyes. I still prefer the bigger screens of the N1 and EVO. A 4" iPhone screen would probably be the best thing you could own. Apple screwed up, in my opinion, sticking with the 3.5" screen

re: thin, the new iPhone is too thin for my big hands. It's not comfortable to hold because of its thin form factor with squared edges.

The camera on it takes amazing pictures, right off the camera, they look much better color-wise than the EVO's, but I imagine you could tweak the EVO's pics with photoshop or the like. You have to give Apple credit for getting such a nice camera into such a thin package - at least there's no nipple on the back of the phone.

Software-wise, Android just blows away the iPhone OS in every way. No comparison. Putting up with a nipple on the back of the phone is a small price to pay for all the Android goodness that comes with the EVO and it's like.
[EVO 4G General] OneStepAhead:
well said. the iPhone is an amazing piece of hardware. but the screen is too small (although i didn't think so before I owned the EVO). and the android o/s does blow it out of the water, at least for us power users/phone dorks. iOS is still better for noobs, and probably always will be.

So the big question:

What programs do you guys use to get HD movies on to your N1?

Also what setting do you use?

I use handbrake on my Mac but I guess I just mess up the settings
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xguntherc:
handbrake works great.. just do it right.

I use ipod legacy preset and I just change the resolution to match my device depending on if the movie is Widescreen or not. I have Hangover, Wedding Crashers, Avatar, Zoolander, entourage (sportin the N1 on Season 6) Dark Night and a few others all on my N1.

So, I just set my bitrate to about 1000 and the resolution right. but I've recently found a better way.

I've been using DVDFab6, it's extremely easy. there's guides. and it has the BEST way to increase the sound of the file. I crank up the audio and now movies are Finally loud on my N1
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
what size sd card are you using?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chilling_Silence:
I've had good success with conversion through Handbrake, but to be honest haven't done any "HD" video files. There's little point considering the screen can't play back at HD resolutions (Even 720p), so it makes sense to re-encode to save on storage space

Download

If you experience slow Market or not seeing "Top Paid Apps" category, push the following file to /data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs

here

For the ext apps2sd i recommend following these instructions (thanks to Britoso):

1. partition sdcard to ext3 or ext4

2.

#enable a2sd
adb shell a2sd install

#also move the dalvik cache to sd card.
adb shell a2sd cachesd

#check if all is ok
adb shell a2sd check

#reboot to test that the phone starts ok
adb shell reboot
