Ok, Clear's WiMax network is Sprint's 4G network they are one and the same, the 3G network that Clear has is Sprint's 3G network, I am a Clear authorized retailer employee, that is my source of knowledge. in short, when you use Sprint's 4G network, you are truly connecting to Clear, our mac addresses have been added into Clear's database, tat's how we get the connection, same thing with Clear and Sprint 3G just reverse.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiicytuna:
Thanks for the insight! I read someplace on XDA, not sure where, that someone couldn't get onto some portion of Clears network with his EVO because of the frequency of the network whereas his Sprint/WiMax access point for his computer could. Any info about that? And to any Dev's out there, what are the chances that the EVO could access these other freq's? and if I am mistaken in what I post, I blame the other poster that I read this from (let me go search for that post now :p)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edtate:
That's cool and all, but I still get no WiMax in phoenix, yet phoenix was one of the first cities to get clear! The thread isn't just about that though, because the evo's WiMax has been limited. As mikeallison stated before, the evo seems to have the ability to communicate with any wimax tower. While it might not be important now, as more companies get into wimax it could really make a difference to those who aren't in sprint's or clear's coverage.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeallison:
Yes, that said, you may need different authentication to access them. So, you might not be able to just hop on.

Clear

Maybe I don't "do enough" but I don't see any major difference between the 3g and 4g except I can tether and still make calls w/out losing my internet connection... I can send data while on call, etc. But as far as speed...again, maybe I don't do enough to tell the difference.

As far as clear, I am a clear customer for phone service and their wireless on the go service and it SUCKs!!! I can never stay connected to the internet on the go as they claim and I've complained and complained....they lock you into contracts like the cell companies and it is an overall bust for me. Maybe they are developing as well and will improve. I don't ask for much, just to be able to use what I pay for...

Seeing as how they have horrible customer service will keep them in line with the culture of Sprint, so it makes since. I do, however, favor Sprint's plans over all other providers so for that I stay and my EVO rocks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrmithdobbs:
What other wimax networks are you expecting exactly? It's basically a dead protocol and I don't think anyone but Sprint/Clear plan to use it in the states. Everyone else is going with LTE.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wfrandy:
Are you sure that Clear even has wimax in Phoenix? The reason I ask is that they do not currently show it on their coverage map. I have Clearwire internet at my house in Reno and when I asked about Sprint 4g they said they don't have it here, and don't know when they will. My understanding is that in the cities that Clear has the wimax equipment installed are the cities that have Sprint 4g. They told me the reason we do not have 4g here is that their current equipment here isn't capable of wimax.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Petronic:
A majority stake in the company doesn't equate to unrestricted use of all of that company's assets. You're forgetting that there's nearly a half-dozen other companies with a stake in Clear. (Three of them being ISPs, at that.)

Sprint can't give away Clear's service to it's customers and having the ability to communicate via the same spectrum doesn't automatically give you the ability to use it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edtate:
+1

People automatically connect clear and sprint together thinking if you have one, you have the other. But anyways has there been anymore info on cyanogen or anybody else integrating WiMax using the clear framework into cm6?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninoriff:
I am a Clearwire TR TECH for CHI, the EVO can work on the 802.16e network without ever being activated on Sprint, the phone has a WIMAX MAC address, which if added in our billing system would turn on 4g service. The ESN is used solely for CDMA (SPRINT), So if you was to activate an account on Clear, you would mark that you are brining your own device and mark it as a laptop and then enter the EVO MAC and you will be on in minutes... New MACs entered into Clearwires system can be set as any device.. EVO does have less reception on WIMAX then other USB devices, So far the M series as a 3db gain and cleaner RSSI/CINR then any other device Clear sells... :)

Just thought I'd drop in and say for those of you using 4G try out Ava's 2.2, following his instructions and installing the new radio and wimax my 4G is killer now. I went from having 1.5Mb down to almost 7Mb! The signal seems a lot stronger as well.

One thing that I've noticed is that my Speedtest app doesn't hop around to different servers anymore, I used to have to change the server manually to the closest one, but now it automatically finds the closest one.

The desire is getting 720p video recording officially through its froyo update. Since the hardware is the same between the nexus and desire could we possibly get the same quality of video on our nexus one. IS there any chance that we will get a update that enables 720p video?
[Nexus One General] ShimaMiku:
They currently have 720p recording in the Development section, but only if you root your phone (so I too hope we somehow can get 720p recording without voiding the warranty).

I'm hoping someone can pull out the iTunes Sync that HTC is throwing in there as well, as DoubleTwist just doesn't cut it for me.

Last but not least, I still hope for the FM radio. Do I need it? No. Do I want it? Yes, I don't like being limited to what I can do. :D

"Google doesn't care about nexus owners"

/kanye

Seriously though, It's up to Google to do the appropriate software updates for us. However, since they've taken the stance of having "pure vanilla AOSP" we won't see extra features not in aosp. AOSP has no support for 720p.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Bingo.

Selling phones isn't Google's business. N1 wasn't supposed to build Google a line of customers that might buy N2/3/10, because there was no intent to make business selling phones. So Google doesn't care about customers that bought N1, since they're a minority compared to other Android phone users, and since they won't be returning customers anyway - nothing to return to.

Whom does it care about? Developers, those that were originally the target crowd for this device, and still are. Thus Google releases the latest operating system for those that hold this device, allowing them access to the latest OS first. But all the rest - things that are necessary for good phone operation and that can be applied as OS-wide fixes to other phones are taken care of, things that are enhancing user experience for this device only - are skipped. Like FM radio, like new graphic driver, like many other things. Because spending time on them is only going to please the Nexus crowd and won't contribute to the overall Android OS advancement - so they probably don't consider it important enough.

Am I happy about it? Of course not, I'd like them to make my Nexus do much more. Do I understand their business decision reasons and think their direction is the right thing for them? Absolutely.
[Nexus One General] Mokurex:
You'd have to root your phone and applied the mod yourself. I don't think we'll ever see it from Google themselves.

720p video for n1 had been available for months. 2.1 roms and 2.2 both have it. The answer to his question is yes, but you'll need to flash a non stock rom
[Nexus One General] msavic6:
Thanks for all the answers. When the desire gets 720p video could we port its video drivers(not sure how to say it) for the camera to the nexus one? So the n1 would be useing the same software as the desire.

My voicemail settings are set for my carrier under settings...and yet my voicemail seems to be going to google voice every time. This is only after installing the leaked froyo.anyone else having this issue?
[Droid Incredible General] Dmtalon:
I had some crazy stuff happen to my phone with google voice shortly after I got my Incredible. My calls were going to straight to voicemail an nothing I could do would change that. I called verizon, and they had me turn off my phone, and then she activated it on a phone she had there. The phone rang fine for her. When She turned that phone off, and I dialed *228 #1 to reactivate mine it started working again.

There's also a GV number you can dial to activate google voice mail, and to deactivate it you can dial *73

So I guess, I'd try dialing *73 first and if that doesn't fix it, try reprogramming the phone. Lasty try vzw support.
[Droid Incredible General] kriskmk:
I tried *73.. but since that was being dialed thru Verizon.. it wasn't going anywhere..

but I tried reprogramming the phone by dialling *228 and that seems to have fixed the issue.

thank you very much for your help.

Re

I loved google voicemail, but hated that my phone would ring 6 times before switching over to googles side and the callers would have to wait for 6 more rings to get to my voice mail.

My friends stopped leaving messages and would just hang up.

Was there any remedy for this ?
[Droid Incredible General] Θmega:
Google is officially supporting it as a voicemail system now, so they actually have an option you can enable in your preferences if that's all you're using it for. Whenever it forwards from Verizon to your GV number it automatically goes to voicemail instead of ringing some more.

Also, it should be noted that voicemail is on Verizon's side. Whenever you use the Google Voice app and call the number it dials for you, you're actually calling a Verizon number. That number programs where to forward calls if you don't pick up.

Dialing just *73 should disable the custom voicemail number.

Edit: Just to be a bit more specific, I meant the preferences online, not the ones in app. :) https://www.google.com/voice#phones

Or, to actually answer the OPs question: Just open the calendar app, go to Menu - More - Calendars, and uncheck the ones you don't want to sync.

I also have this problem and I have an HTC EVO 4G LTE running ICS 4.0.3. None of the suggestions I read anywhere on the web worked for me, but I finally found a solution. Open the Google Calendar from your phone/device, and at the top left, there is a drop down menu titled "Calendar." I never noticed that this was a drop down list before, but it is. This is where you will find all of the synced calendars from Facebook and others. I had to uncheck everything, and then add just the ones I cared about. That worked for me; hope this helps.

I am having the same problem

I am experiencing the exact same issue.

Using eugene's root method, i have been able to get into clockworkmod several times. During this the normal behavior was,

Boot into fastboot (voldown+power), go into recovery; adb devices would show "offline" for a second, then if it worked "recovery" (or maybe back to nothing and you have to reboot and try again).

This worked fine for a few times; I flashed several different roms that way.

Then one night I stupidly flashed a bad rom, it boot looped. Every time since then trying to get into recovery, NEVER works. It no longer ever shows a "offline" for a second like it did before when you just had to keep trying. it NEVER SHOWS UP. in fact, my dmesg in linux shows some usb errors

I flashed wesgarners stock ESPRIMG to go back to factory so my phone could boot. But when it boots up the stock version, it always says SD CARD EJECTED.

and usb debug mode will not go either, (so i can not adb push or adb log or anything).

Also, if i go into the stock recovery and try to flash update.zip, i get sd card read errors, and it fails. (it seems my usb/sd-card slot is fubar'd up now)

[the sd card is the 8g one it came with that still works fine in my nexus1 and vice versa]

I have been unable to get it out of this state since then. Though luckily since wesgarner's stock image flashed, it is back to "stock" with a broken usb/sd-card. So I am just about going to go into a t-mobile shop and see if they will replace it for me.

Unless anyone else has any ideas.

I don't think anyone had mentioned.this yet and if they did I am sorry for repeating...
