yes Rom Manager can do backup of phone..but why not just do

a Nandroid Backup from CWM Recovery..

In my opinion, this is the biggest issue currently plaguing the nexus one... If I wasn’t stuck with tmobile/tzones, I would switch to a droid (verizon) or capitivate (att) in an instant because this problem seriously kills the usability of the product. Im not talking about the lack of true multitouch (crossing axis, 3 finger, etc) cause I know that’s a non issues unless you play one of the 5 games in marketplace that require true multitouch. This is different... It is very annoying when you are halfway through typing a sentence and suddenly your “t” registers as a “v” or your “m” registers as “home”, etc.... Im keeping my nexus because there are other factors that make it the better overall phone for me but I really think some of you fanboys need to open your eyes and realize there is (are) huge flaws with out beloved dev phone.
[Nexus One General] dudebro:
I don't recall seeing anyone post that the nexus was the best phone because it had no issues at all.

when this happens to me I just lock and unlock the phone and the issue is gone.
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
What I don't understand is that in the title you say it's a deal-breaker and in your post you say you're keeping the phone. So which is it?

Also, you're about five months late in *****ing about this issue.

And rather than come here and calling us all fanboys, maybe you should take a look in the mirror at the idiot who bought a device with an issue that bothers him so much.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Really though, you just made a fool of yourself for everyone to see.

Fanboi out.
[Nexus One General] norazi:
this post was directed at the blind fanboys who go into the other threads and act like this is a non issue... it is not.

any phone i buy is going to have some glaring flaw... i think it is impossible to have a perfect phone. i am just identifying this as the nexus ones #1 flaw.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
As Old MuckenMire stated, you are BY FAR not the first person to whine about this. It's an old issue, and I'm pretty sure it has to do with the hardware. These "fanbois" have probably accepted it as a non-issue because there is no fix.

BTW, the Galaxy S is available on T-Mo as the Vibrant.
[Nexus One General] norazi:
i personally think that this issue is MUCH worse than lack of true multitouch, but every week we get a thread about multitouch when i think thats the true non issue

galaxy s does not work with tzones
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
It's all down to opinion.

Should it have been fixed before even shipping the device? **** yes.

Do I really care? No.

The truth is, it's only as big a deal as you make it.
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
This issue doesn't happen to me very often, like 3 times a week? All I have to do is just lock and unlock the screen.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Mhmm. Simple. Maybe a little annoying, but nothing too infuriating.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
exactly, this happens to me about 3 times a week, sometimes less. to fix it you just lock the screen and the issue is gone. i'm not saying its a non-issue. i'm just saying its not the end of the world and certainly isnt a "deal breaker" like the title of this thread. every phone has their stupid quirks. look at the galaxy s, the gps doesnt barely work. the evo has 30 fps cap (which is a way worse issue than nexus touch), on and on. each device has some issue or another.
[Nexus One General] iPhoneSlayer:
Use Swype or Swift Key.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Swype is the worst when you have this issue. No words will work until you lock/unlock the screen.
[Nexus One General] iPhoneSlayer:
You know this touch screen issue with the wrong letters being registered, I used to have this problem about 2-3 times a day. Then when froyo came out, it was like twice a month. Now ever since I flashed Cyanogen 6, I have yet to see it. Don't know how or why...I'm just thankful :)
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Very nice :)
[Nexus One General] cybrian:
This issue seems to be a thousand times worse if the phone's been getting hot from sitting in the car dock. EVERY time I pull it out of there after it's been there for more than 10 minutes or so, the phone's so hot that it's painful to touch it, and the touch screen's really flaky even after locking and unlocking, unless i let it cool down first.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Uhhhhh your device should NEVER get that hot.
[Nexus One General] fubaya:
Hmmm, this happened a few times right after I got my N1 in March but I don't think it has happened since.

Sorry, total non-issue for me.
[Nexus One General] norazi:
this is the point of this thread, maybe we can isolate what causes it... and do HTC/googles QA

[HD2 General] The36thChamber:
when listening to my music im sure we all lock the screen so we dont change songs accidentally, but when mine is locked the music has short pauses about every 5-7 seconds like its a cd player skipping. but when i unlock the screen it the whole song plays fine. this happens with the music player and WMP. anybody else have this problem? any advice would be appreciated. thanks
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
this happens when you have a lockscreen that has the animated arrows enabled. been playing with the lockscreen?
[HD2 General] The36thChamber:
yes i have a different slider, because i wanted the slider at the bottom of the screen. is there other sliders i can try that puts the slider at the bottom of the screen without animated arrows?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
the slider itself shouldn't be a problem, its those little arrows either side of it, and yes you should be able to find another one, its a really simple edit to move the slider. there's a lockscreen editing tutorial in my sig, if you fancy an hour or two tinkering with it yourself.

i dont dare to tinker with it myself im clueless when it comes to this stuff, but i decided to try the lockscreen ccb here. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=639163)

[EVO 4G General] Leukay:
I hate to respond to threads like this but it's getting ridiculous how many people start threads about it. Windows Mobile, even Windows Phone 7, to most people are considered inferior to Android. Due to that fact, and to the fact that Windows Mobile/Windows Phone 7 are not and will never be open source, It will probably not happen.

it will prolly happen shortly after you get Microsoft to release WinMo7 source code under GPL.

Coming from a previous WinMo fanboy (me), I would echo the thoughts of the original person who replied and said... WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO? 1. Android is far superiour and does FAR more than WinMo ever will. 2. Why would you want to load an OS that will run slower and do less?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] tori60:
HI all, this past weekend Kies popped up with a notification that there was a firmware upgrade for my Galaxy S. I immediately downloaded and installed it, I guess a newbie mistake. When completed I found that all my apps vanished and my settings went back to out of the box state. Though annoying I spent much of Saturday morning trying to get my phone back to where I had it before the update. The issue now though is that when I log into the market I find I am unable to download certain apps, I get to the install button on the phone then I get an error message "file not found". This is troublesome as there are a few apps that I had before the upgrade that I can no longer install, including paid apps, (examples Pandora, Pure Calendar) nor am I able to install certain new apps. I read that the market will no longer display protected content after this upgrade. I spoke to Samsung who told me to take the phone back to the Bell store. Bell told me to call Samsung as it is a firmware issue

Has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone know of a solution to the problem.

Thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
Some people suffered market problems after upgrading to the UK-released JM1 last week. Apparently Samsung has to notify Google that they released an official update, so that Google allows access to paid and copy protected apps for that firmware. It took a couple of days for everyone to see everything over here. Maybe you just have to wait a bit (?)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kaibosh:
Same happened here in Australia.. It was fixed the next day. I called Samsung to complain about it (when it was still happening) and was told that there was nothing they could do (which seemed like rubbish to me)..

[Galaxy S I9000 General] rajendra82:
I am on the Captivate running the beta I897UCJH2 firmware. I have market issue with some apps (e.g., Asphalt 5 HD, Fandango, and G4Tv) not showing up. I tried your method of copying over the build.prop file from the official I897UCJF6 firmware release. Even rebooted after doing that. The missing apps never showed up, so I reverted back to the JH2 build.prop file. Any other suggestions to fix my issue?

P.S. - Spoke too soon. This does work. Someone suggested clearing Market cache, followed by reboot, and then installing and reinstalling a couple of apps. And that did the trick.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
from what i can gather it seems to be related to a location issue, as in certain apps will not show up for some countries and other apps will, etc.

so if you load firmwares from different geographic location the market is filtering what it allows/not allows bassed on the rom firmware location.

it'll be great if we can remove that filter and have it show everything online.

the work around that i do is find and download the apps via browser, instead of market

also avoid the barcode scanner downloads, which just launches the market app
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rajendra82:
Are you saying there a site where I can get the all the apks for these missing apps downloaded by bypassing the market? I have never run across it so far. Every one of the solutions so far has the phone launching the market app at some point, which fails, as the apps are not listed or downloadable there. The apps I am talking about are all free and should be legally able to be sideloaded, but how?
[Desire General] Freddan80:
Hi all.

I'm getting some strange glitch within some of my games a couple of days, weeks after a new install. This allways occurs a couple of days on a new rom and lasts until I wipe and install a fresh one.

I have tried everything I can think of but to no avail.

A picture says more than a thousand words.

This sort of things doesn't happen to regualar apps but one, Spotify, but most of my games including, Super Tumble, Magic Gem, Abduction, Doodle Jump and many more.

The games that works as they should are none but HomeRun 3D and Hyper Jump.

At this time I'm using a 'Modaco R8' rom but this has happend in other roms to but I don't remember is it did happen before 2.2.

Thanks /Freddan.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busbutt:
I sometimes find that my Hero struggles for memory and the OS has to close background apps such as the launcher, which is kind of annoying. This leads me to ask two questions:

1) Do third party launchers like LauncherPro generally use less memory than the default HTC Sense launcher? Or does it make things worse, since it seems some parts of HTC Sense are always running in the background anyway?

2) Do vanilla custom ROMS that don't have HTC Sense generally run with more free memory for third party apps, because they aren't running HTC Sense and other HTC-related stuff?

Thanks in advance guys!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
The default setup for the Hero shouldn't close your Launcher. That is odd. Are you running any task killers?

Personally I prefer Vanilla builds with Launcher Pro, but i've never bothered testing memory usage as it isn't an issue AFAIK. I never have apps close that I immediately need.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busbutt:
When I was using the regular sense launcher, I did find it got closed reasonably often. It happened mostly after web browsing, I guess because web browsers are very memory-hungry apps. I kind of figured the system should try not to close that app, but when I've checked with task managers, it always seems that the launcher process tends to be at priority 400 which is pretty low - certainly a candidate to be killed at any moment. Since switching to Launcher Pro things seem to have improved, but I am not sure why. I don't use any task killer, as I read that you should leave this stuff up to Android to manage.
[General Questions and Answers] Tahierro:
Can´t you just place the file at your micro sd card, by connecting your pc and hd2 with the usb, with file explorer?

Just choose 'disk drive' and then you will be able to browse all your files on micro SD.

Also you can just paste your files to your card.

Also, i'd recommend not using windows media player.

Coreplayer is a good alternative.

check it out.

I hope this helps...

​

I had downgraded to stock 2.1 Rom from the leaked 2.2 rom.

After this I went to the hboot

menu to check radio and

hboot version without first deleting PB31IMG.zip from the sdcard. Even though it started verifying the zip, I didn't apply it.

But after this I have lost sound while playing songs or YouTube.

Should I root again and apply again PB31IMG.zip, or does this run the risk of applying the same radio again

Thanks and regards
