[Galaxy S I9000 General] dan 6a:
The huge technology forum in Australia www.forums.whirlpool.net.au is down and out atm.

There was a fast growing thread on there dedicated to this new phone, and thought if you find this site, stay here and sign up :) It is more in depth than the general discussions of the i9000.

Pop in and say hey :)

Rod I think you are one I know for sure
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rodh257:
Hi dan,

DDOS or something for whirlpool isn't it? sucks, but at least I'm more productive today without checking the forums as much!

http://www.itnews.com.au/News/218190,whirlpool-crippled-by-ddos-attack.aspx

I love this part:

I'm going to try a factory reset on my galaxy tonight, battery usage lasts me from 7am to 10pm now, but at 10pm its flat, and thats with me barely using the phone all day (train ride internet only and text message checking). Also have very flaky wifi, keeps dropping in and out.

I don't want to have to send my phone back to the Uk though so going to try factory reset to confirm its not apps causing it and I might buy a spare battery (techbuy has got them) to test it out. Want to eliminate as much as possible without shipping it back..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unimaginative:
Yeah, I got some epic giggles from that as well.

Hopefully the OptusWorld store here will have one to play with tomorrow.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] corolla90:
hey guys new to android came from an iphone is there a program that is free for yahoo mail? with push? what a good email program. thanx
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] froggyarts:
Found this, if it helps

Its not an application suggestions, but the author found a "workaround" to get Yahoo Mail working on the stock mail client. I don't think you can get Push from Yahoo Accounts without paying (not too sure, maybe an app will help with this?). But at least you can get your email on your phone with the stock email client and maybe save some space? That or just get GMail.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] corolla90:
thanx for the info, i tired that but no luck
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] froggyarts:
Hmm, I tested mine out before I posted and I got it to go through. Anyway I can help? Or you just gonna look for an application? When I Google'd.. i saw a "MailDroid" pop up, but idk anything about it.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] corolla90:
i didnt read the first part. it works :) thanx for the help. the first part said that wifi has to be off will it work only on edge/3G or will it also work on wifi? any how its setup. thanx

EDIT: ok i answered my own question lol, it wont work on wifi, only with 2g/3g data connection
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] joelangley:
MailDroid will work over wifi though for yahoo. I am the dev, but try it out...it is on slideme and the marketplace.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] Gorilla800lbs:
Go for K-9 Mail. It's in hte Market. It handles Yahoo mail very well and has tons of features.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] hunkyn:
Yahoo released a Mail app and it is available in market.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] PSUSkier:
Is there anyone else out there who rooted their Incredible and has a network extender? If so, are you having any problems? Ever since I've rooted and installed clockworkmod recovery I can't make outgoing calls when on my network extender. I can receive them just fine and other phones can get outgoing.
[HD2 General] yonu:

Does it really support 16 point multitouch I'm really torn on what phone to choose the iphone4, desire or this one.

[Hero CDMA General] beard6:
Hello, I am new to all of this and would appreciate help.

I looked on here for reverting back to 1.5 after rooting to 2.1, but I am confused. I saw the instructions on how to root to 2.1, but if I want to revert back to the stock 1.5, how do I do so? Do I need a backup copy of my phone? How do I make a backup copy of my rom on my phone? Is there a step by step to reverting back to stock 2.1? Sorry if these questions are obvious.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
An Otterbox Defender would be awesome so! They are really protective and I absolutely love them! Hopefully if enough people ask, one will be made. Here's the link to request: http://www.otterbox.com/contact-us/
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Don't forget :D

?!
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
That's a commuter..... Defender covers the entire phone and offers much more protection against everything.
[Nexus One Accessories] leyvatron:
also waaaaay more bulky and waaaaay more ugly.
[Nexus One Accessories] Crippletron:
...TTIWWOP
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Why don't you read up on it? The Defender usually comes in other colors. It's basically a hard, polycarbonate shell that covers the phone like a case with a hinge type mechanism and is covered by a layer of a silicone skin that contours to the polycarbonate. The screen is covered already by a built in plastic layer that acts as a screen protector. It also makes the phone water "resistant" meaning you can use it in mildly wet environments like a rainy day for example, but can't submerge it. They are much more shock resistant than any other case and will protect the phone from long, hard drops. Basically, best you can get to make your phone indestructable! :D

The Nexus One Defender looks much better than I expected.

Finally Otterbox got the Nexus One fully covered ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] android01:
I used this code and got 10% off my otterbox defender AND free shipping! :D

coupon code: techbargains6100p
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Lol.... I just bought a commuter LAST WEEK because I e-mailed them about a defender and they had no idea about one.... Oh well.... I really want a defender though. Anyone wanna trade their defender for a commuter with cash lol?
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
This kind of pisses me off. I asked about a defender case as well (have had my commuter case for a month) and they didn't give me any info. Now they have the defender available. I STILL have the Impact case too. F*ck. With discounts, i've already spent $43 in cases for this phone and i'm about to upgrade because I'd like to have something a little more 'water-resistant'.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Exactly! I asked, they said they had NO IDEA ABOUT ANYTHING. A week later.... it shows up! I've wanted the Defender even before I owned the Nexus, this just breaks my heart lol :(
[Nexus One Accessories] bud760:
i have the commuter now too but i just ordered the defender with a coupon code for free shipping and 10% off techbargains6100p from the otterbox website, code expires end of this month. selling my commuter in another n1 forum, hope someone buys it :D
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Good luck!:D
[Nexus One Accessories] Mike Blitz:
I managed to break my commuter not even by dropping it, I was changing sims and a side piece came unstuck, going to try this defender.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Well, I've spent $85 in cases in the past 3 weeks. Bought a $20 crystal boxwave TPU case. A Otterbox Commuter as well as a green/black Case-mate tough case. So I have plenty to offer up for someones defender if anyones interested :D
[Nexus One Accessories] jakeneal22:
I will be getting one of these pronto. Just making sure the defender is a plastic case with rubber on the outside correct? oh and one more thing does the plastic inside case have a screen protector attached like one of the iphone otterboxes
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Yes, exactly as the iphone one. It's a hard plastic shell, then a silicone cover that goes on top of that. The screen protector is all in one with the hard shell. :D
[Nexus One Accessories] clickwir:
I can't take anything you say seriously because your 'signature' is grotesquely huge and obnoxious.

k thk bye :D
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Uhm, it used to be bigger. This is 1/3 of what it used to be last week. I see people with bigger signatures *cough orb3000 and others*. I honestly don't think it's that big....
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
did you see the seidio rugged case?
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Looks kind yougly. ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
yea but looks extra protective. I ordered the defender case though hoping it comes quick. I'm wondering if you can use the holster as a kickstand
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
I agree. Have fun with your defender, i'm jealous :D

I bought the commuter 1 week before the defender came out, since they never said if it was coming after I e-mailed them. If anyone wants to trade their defender for a Commuter and CM tough case PM me ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
yea I had a commuter but bought a extended battery and a sd converter for 32gb and sold the commuter but then I eventually got a 32gb micro and didn't want the extended battery so right now I'm stuck with cheap hard cases and a bootleg commuter case. Once my defender comes I'll try to put a quick review on my youtube. But no drop test, not gonna risk it lol :D
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Otterbox (surprise) messed up my order. My Defender case was supposed to come in last Wednesday and never appeared. I checked FedEx and all they showed was "Shipping information sent to FedEx." It was never "picked up" or "in transit". Upon calling Otterbox (Thursday), they put me on hold and contacted FedEx, stating that then Defender had been picked up from their warehouse. They claim FedEx must have lost it. The girl was nice enough to ship out a new Defender case and gave me free overnight delivery. However, they didn't ship the case out until Friday evening, which means it didn't leave until Saturday. As of now, it's in my city and expected delivery is by 3pm local time (within an hour as it's 2pm here now). Otterbox blames the holdup on their new iPhone4 cases and the the backlog this generated because of the high volume of orders. If Apple had built a better phone, I wouldn't have had to wait the extra few days. This is the first time an iPhuck has created a problem for me and I don't even own that piece of sh*t.

/rant

I'm excited to get this case. I have a Commuter series case and the weakness there is on the corners. The silicone isn't strong enough to prevent damage from a 4 ft. drop. I have a minor dent where this occurred on my phone. Even though you can't see it, just knowing it's on my phone bothers me in a tiny way. lol
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
I'm the same way :D

I Juts got the CM Tough Case for $13 (their on sale) and the silicone is quite a bit thicker than on the commuter. I like it MUCH better :). Plus, my phone doesn't get as hot when charging since the ports aren't covered anymore (found out that was an issue). The silicone is like a regular cheapo silicone case with the hard part on the ENTIRE back not just the center. Plus, the hard shell covers the corners too.
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
So i got home last night and i have to admit, i was excited to put on my Defender case. I rip open the packaging, pulled out my Nexus One reciept and my Nexus One Defender Ca...

Wait a minute.

I KNOW i'm not looking at an HTC HD2 DEFENDER CASE.

Yes, read it again. They phukked up my order. So I called them up and explained what happened and they're shipping me one AGAIN. It should be here tomorrow. This case better be the case to end all cases. Hell, after this much trouble, it better offer me a hand-job.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Hah, I have never had issues with Otterbox before. I've bought a bunch of things over the years. Gotta blame that iPahone ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] mkrmec:
Hey all

I've been playing around with my Nexus One in my new OtterBox case.

It's the Commuter version. AND IT'S AWESOME!!!

The phone grips more, it has a more rugged feeling to it, before I had a feeling that the phone is quite fragile, now .. it's like it's unbreakable hehe Love that the rubber closes up the miniUSB port and the audio hole.. so no dust can get in.

PLUS!!!! you get a screen protector with it... when I opened it up I really hope that it's not the screen protector that distorts the colors and stuff like the one from Zagg... AND IT'S NOT!! it looks awesome. Had a problem applying it because I'm so clumsy, and there was a buggble right smack in the middle of the screen hehe... I rubbed it with the Otterbox credit card like thing and it went away!! The screen looks great now!

I must say this is the best one I bought so far and probably the last one, because it's just too good!!

BUY IT VIA ebay .. it's cheaper for some weird reason

LINKZ:

Google Nexus One Commuter Series Case // OtterBox.com

eBay link to the seller:

OTTERBOX COMMUTER CASE for HTC GOOGLE NEXUS ONE 1 NEW - eBay (item 350377183341 end time Aug-27-10 18:25:05 PDT)

It took a week to ship it from USA to europe.. so I was surprised on that too..

ENJOY
[Nexus One Accessories] EErez:
a photo/video review of this case would be great as i am considering purchasing one.

anyone up for it?
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Yes! and would mind showing the following in the review.... Stomping, kicking, throwing against brick walls, submerging in a ocean/lake, running over with your car and using it as a chew toy for your dog. Then we can actually see how much durability it adds :D
[Nexus One Accessories] EarthsiegeTA:
I'd kill for one if it wasn't $50...
[Nexus One Accessories] Vision77:
Is anyone else having problems with the otterbox site.....Every time I try to add an item to the shopping cart it just gives me a blank page....I tried it with several different items:mad: still a no go...
[Nexus One Accessories] mkrmec:
A few pictures of the commuter version... that don't do the case justice... much nicer in RL.

[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
You're not goimng to believe this sh*t

So after my last fiasco (see previous posts in this thread), Otterbox sent out a new phone case and emailed me a shipping label so I could send the old case back. I printed out the shipping label this morning and noticed they got my address wrong, but theirs was correct. Mind you, I have a long address and all they did was use the first address line instead of putting my apartment number on the second address line so the full address would show up with FedEx. Sensing something may be amiss, I called FedEx to verify the shipment I was receiving today was coming to the correct address. It wasn't. I had to call Otterbox and have them contact FedEx and correct my address. They delivered the package this afternoon. So I came home to find my box waiting for me. I open it up to find my brand new...

...drumroll...

Black iPhone 3GS Defender series case.

I just about sh*t a brick. So I called them (and waited for 30 minutes) for customer service and spoke to the EXACT SAME agent I spoke to that corrected my address today and incidentally sent me the 1st replacement. He offered to send out yet another case and was trying to get it out tonight. If they don't get this case correct the 3rd time, i'll just ask for a refund. Otterbox is full of sh*t. I really hope this case is worth it.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
OH MY GOSH LOL. I'm laughing so hard at this.... :D:D:D:D

I feel bad for you lol. I would complain and ask for a new one. You should defenitly publish this drama filled story ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
I don't know man, i'm starting to think the Nexus One Defender case is a myth. lol
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
HAH! Maybe you can complain and get it for free :D That's wat I meant to say in my last post.... ;):cool::eek:
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Tried it, they didn't go for it. Received a call from Otterbox Customer Service just now. They confirmed that the right case was put in the box this time and it was quality checked by the Warehouse Manager. I don't really know if this means anything at all, as there should be some sort of checking system in place anyway. Anyhow, they say I'll have my case tomorrow. Wish me luck.
[Nexus One Accessories] EarthsiegeTA:
I'm quite surprised they didn't go for it. After the first screw-up, yeah, I could understand not wanting to, but after the second, I'd call it good customer service if they sent you the right one and refunded the money for the time you waited.
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
One would think. That's okay, i'm content just to get what I paid for and provide a review of what I think of the case when I get it. I may include a somewhat scathing review of their shipping process as well.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
What about all the tests I suggested ;):D
[Nexus One Accessories] Vision77:
I just ordered one....I hope everything goes smooth with the shipping process:D
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
How about 'no'? roflmao. While I'd like to believe the case is durable enough to stand up to all of that, we see the hoops I'd have to jump through to get another one! Let one of these other guys go nuts with it. Maybe I'll do so in the future when I upgrade to my next phone (in october). I'm waiting to see if a dual-core snapdragon really drops. If so, i'll go through this song and dance with Otterbox again if they make a defender for it.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
So you got the case?!?!?! :D
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
Just got my case today and it is awesome. Feels so good I love it. And I can use the holster as a kickstand its great, I'll do a video review soon. But no drop test lol
[Nexus One Accessories] glitzbd:
Order Placed

Well this will be my sixth case for the Nexus, but so worth it... after using the Commuter Series I went back to my Body Glove for the kickstand and belt clip.

Just a FYI I used the discount code: tb810z for 10% off and Free FedEx Shipping
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Not yet, it comes in this afternoon.
[Nexus One Accessories] Yaotl:
Can someone post pics of the sides? The little plastic tabs look odd to me, just want to know what they look like in real shots.
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Give me until this evening and I'll post some shots of it*, unless someone beats me to the punch. It's in my city en route to my place.

*if they sent the right case.

lol
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
the plastic tabs are there so the holster snaps on I'll post pics when I can
[Nexus One Accessories] Yaotl:
I wouldn't use the holster so I'm worried they'll snag on stuff in my pocket. If they look like they will, I'll just get the commuter.
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
If you decide to buy the commuter, i'll sell you mine (plus a new screen protector) for $15.
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
Well you shouldn't have to worry about it snagging it doesn't for me. If you decide to get the commuter that's also a great case. I like the defender because the built in screen protector and because I can use the holster as a kickstand. I'm loving the defender one of the best decisions I've made for my nexy
[Nexus One Accessories] EErez:
is the screen protector part of the plastic shell? will it fit over my existing zagg screen protector? does it make the phone loose responsiveness?

thanks
[Nexus One Accessories] mcp2009:
well I took off my zagg protector right before I put it on the case because it was scratched up and yea it is part of the plastic shell and as far as the responsiveness I'm having no problems.
[Nexus One Accessories] android01:
I use a dcmugen88 anti glare screen protector on my nexus one, and with the defender screen installed, Yes i did experience increased unresponsiveness. So what i did was peel off the defenders built in screen protector and then used adhesive remover to remove the glue where it was attached. I now LOVE the defender with a really strong shell using my higher quality self installed screen protector. And would suggest any serious nexys do the same.
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
They did it!

They finally sent me the right case. The girlfriend confirmed it when she signed for it. I almost didn't believe her and had her read me the exact wording on the box. lol. I'll be putting my new case on in an hour and a half (I'm still at work).
[Nexus One Accessories] Hi-Risk:
Just received my Defender case and very satisfied with it so far. :)

Edit: I now like the feel of the phone. The case gives the phone more bulk but it's just the right size for me to carry comfortably in my hand. One bad thing about the case is that it's a lint/dust magnet.

I don't have any special skins or screen protectors on the phone so I had no issues with responsiveness (including the touch capacitive buttons at the bottom of the phone).
[Nexus One Accessories] ScottC:

[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
OMG!?!!? Congrats! Any pics?;)
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Aw crap, got home and excited for the weekend and didn't do it. I'll post pics tonight. BTW, the case is frigging awesome.
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Thanks ;) And about those tests.......:eek:
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
lol, not going to do all that. A friend was asking me about the new case yesterday and i tossed it about 10 feet onto a hardwood floor to demonstrate the durability of the material. Hit bounced, rolled end over end a few times and came to a stop without so much as a scratch.
[Nexus One Accessories] Vision77:
Just got my defender case this morning....Fast shipping, No mix-ups....good quality...No complaints:D
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
With your phone in it :eek::eek::eek:
[Nexus One Accessories] kitchencop:
got mine yesterday from buy.com for under 40 bucks shipped with 3day ups.

http://www.buy.com/prod/otterbox-ht...-tm-defender-tm-case/q/loc/111/216729504.html
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
Yes, with my phone in it. Man, I suck, I keep forgetting to load pictures. New development though, FedEx delivered another Defender Box to my apartment yesterday. Its shipdate reads 07/27/2010. It's the original one they sent that was 'lost'. Lol, so now I have 2 defender cases! I'm thinking i'm either going to sell the extra one or ask Otterbox for a refund. ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
$cough$ give me it $cough$......:D:p
[Nexus One Accessories] Hi-Risk:
After a couple days of use, I finally ran into a problem of sort. The capacitive buttons on the Nexus One sometimes become unresponsive to the point I have to remove the phone from the case to use them.

Any of you who own the Defender case have a similar issue?
[Nexus One Accessories] Christopher3712:
I can't say I've had to remove the phone to use them, however, I have had to press buttons again because they didn't respond on the first press. That's a pretty rare occurrence though. Since all our hardware is the same, I'm wondering if your phone is heating up more so than mine? That could effect the touch screen as it would be able to easily tell the temperature change when you used a finger press.
[Nexus One Accessories] _Dennis_:
Umm. Temperature is not registered by capacitive touch screens the drop in electricity on a charged plate is registered. It could be the heat from the phone is changing the electrical properties of the plastic over the screen.
