For me? Personally? Multi-touch is a TAD bit sketch sometimes But honestly? I have an Xbox 360 for my gaming needs.. iPhone games are nice and cool and good looking (especially on iPhone 4) but it's a terrible OS. and I dislike sprint.

I just got a Nexus One today again, after not having one for a month and i am so happy. I'd rather have the phone do things like tether and torrent and BE PRODUCTIVE rather thank play games on it. And sure, every now and again i do play games so i have emulators and knock-off tetris'. IMO
[Nexus One General] smashpunks:
Great choice, I have a vibrant and a n1, and im gonna say I wont pick my n1 up again till it gets gingerbread, and even then.

The sgs is awesome for gaming. The gpu is Amazimg. Its so nice to have proper Multitouch, if the n1s MT was better it would have been so much nicer.

Congratulations and you will love it as much as I love my vibrant I'm sure .
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
How are you making the switch?

Breaking T-Mobile/AT&T contract?
[Nexus One General] Hitorii:
I'm contract free on T-mobile but I just don't find it necessary to keep the N1 as it isn't usable on CDMA networks, thus we are parting ways. =(

And yes, I I'm forever sticking with android. It's truly amazing how freedom really feels. XD

How much are you selling your N1 for?
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
I'm buying a G2 on preorder (if that ever happens). If not, getting it the first day.

I never really liked keyboards on a phone, that's why I took back my MT3GSlide and ordered a nexus. IMO it just makes the product bulkier. But the G2 is almost like a nexus with a hidden keyboard...And a brand new processor.

But that's still just a dream, until they "reveal" it. I'm starting to think leaking is a new advertising technique lol.

And I'll still keep the N1 for ****s and giggles, it is a dev phone after all ;)
[Nexus One General] Hitorii:
Just sold a few hours ago. It was priced at $380. It has a scratch on the back cover and a scuff on the bottom antennae cover as well as wear on the right side of the casing. It was for t-mobile with boot loader unlocked, so I say that is more than a fair price.
[Nexus One General] MvP77:
Same here G2 looks to be a Nexus with a keyboard! (although im also hoping to get a galaxy tab :) )
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Definitely a fair price given the condition. Good luck with the Epic man... I was tempted to switch to Spring, but I just can't stomach the thought of not being able to easily switch phones around.
[Nexus One General] sl8125:
Why not the vibrant? If your a gamer I guess its the right phone for you. However you will miss your n1. I bought a captivate used it for a 1 1/2 month and returned it. I am not a gamer. I need to multi task. Of captivate was nice but not for me. I was able to do more on my n1 and it was nice to have froyo. I might wait for galaxy tab though. That looks nice. Well have fun with a new device. Its always fun getting a new toy.
[Nexus One General] Hitorii:
I thought about it, but I really miss keyboards for emulation. The cliq was horrible! The bulk never bothers me as I never pocket a phone anyway. I already miss my N1, but that's because I don't have an android replacement yet ! XD.

Another reason is the Dev community. While the N1 community trumps nearly any other with great guys such as in this thread, I feel that with the galaxy S line will do what the N1 was supposed to do, but never got the chance, and that's going to all major US carriers. So my hopes are that this will bring out a great community hopefully like that of the N1.

Also my iPad is up on eBay so I can buy an android tab.... :D

search market for "ADB over WIFI Widget"

Notes:

- Rooted phone only.

A Widget to quickly enable/disable ADB over wifi. It will work over WIFI or Hotspot. IP and Port information will be shown on the icon. SU access may needed depends on your ROM and in that case, it would be slower (experimental).

If it didn't work, please email me, we will work it out.

Other features of the widget:

- Info on the icon can be enabled/disabled.

- The label under the icon can be customized or completely disabled

- You can specify port number

- you can set SU mode, please note that this feature is experimental and will slow down the widget operations a little.
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
App is free now!

I decided to make the widget free. download and enjoy. I will add some cool features soon.
[Android Apps and Games] Stalte:
Awesome. How do you get it to work??? Like is there something for the PC I have to download or run??
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
No software required on PC

Nothing needed on PC other than the ADB itself of course.

Make sure Debug mode is enabled on your phone.

this is the command on PC:

ADB connect IP:PORT

IP will be shown on the icon when you enable it and you can set port (also will be shown on the icon).

you should be on the same network with your phone, you cannot use 3G IP to connect it on the internet.

Have fun!
[Android Apps and Games] scrizz:
Excellent, thank You!
[Android Apps and Games] ardax:
Dumb question: How do I do this?

I've got USB Debugging checked in Settings -> Applications -> Development, but that doesn't seem to do the trick to use ADB via WiFi.

I'm running Ruby 1.1.1 on an HTC Incredible, Super User Mode is checked (widget doesn't seem to work without it), and the widget says it's enabled, shows me the IP/port, but adb simply says "unable to connect to 192.168.1.xxx:5555" (I changed the port to 5555).
[Android Apps and Games] GermanBrat:
I take it that you've granted the application superuser permissions? You need to then need to activate the widget and adb connect xxxxxxx
[Android Apps and Games] ardax:
Yes, it has permissions in superuser. I tap the widget to activate, it turns green and displays my phone's IP address + port. I open up a command window (w/ admin privileges, though that doesn't seem to matter), run "adb connect IP:port" and get the "unable to connect" message.

adbWireless doesn't work either.
[Android Apps and Games] _Schizm_:
Rock on

Suite sauce! Great app
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
Where are you using this app? is it on your home network or a work/university? Because I also cannot connect in university, I've found a fix for it thats need a trick. I will add the trick to next version (Maybe I do it tonight, stay tuned), I hope it also work for you.

Just a test, can you use programs such as file managers to remotely access a share folder on your computer? because you should be on the same folder to do this.
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
Updated!

Check the updated version. Enable Change mask option and set different mask values. It fixed on my university's network with "255.255.0.0". you need to check the computer ip and your phone ip and determine what mask you should use. The goal is to make phone that you are on the same network as the computer.

Also a bug fixed. :)

Have fun.
[Android Apps and Games] SamManMos:
The widget itself works like a charm, thanks a lot! But - look what I see in my Command Prompt window(on desktop computer under Windows 7) after successful connection with android device:

What this??? What all these "←[" mean??? :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] ardax:
Those are escape codes. With the right terminal program, they can control the cursor or change colors among other things. They are coming from whatever shell your ROM is running.

As for me, there must have been something wrong with my Ruby installation. The widget worked just fine after restoring a nandroid of Virtuous, and works great on my wife's Droid running Sapphire.
[Android Apps and Games] AfzalivE:

[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
Very useful program, thanks!

I do have a question; Is enabling su when adding the widget required to make it work?

If I leave this toggle unchecked, the widget never turns green to indicate a connection is possible.

When it is checked, everything works as expected.

Is this toggle giving the widget su permission, or is it to grant permission to the wireless adb connection?

Please clarify the function of this toggle.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
Given the nature of this program, is the source code available for this?
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
It's too bad the author of this program is not responding. The program is handy, but without seeing the source, the security risks are too great.
[Android Apps and Games] JeepFreak:
How are the risks any different than almost every other app?

Billy
[Android Apps and Games] russ8793:
Where do I get ADB from? Sorry Noobie!:o
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
Agreed, there's always risks. For any app requesting su access, I try to minimize risk by learning as much as possible and preferably examining the source code.
[Android Apps and Games] JeepFreak:
You can try saying "no" to superuser access... it wasn't required on my vanilla tablet or on my CM6.1 Nexus One.

Doesnt want to work in my EVO!! And yes im rooted.. and on my home network!! what has to pop up or what? do you put the ip address on the browser, command prompt or what..?? i dont get it... please help! my ip and port do show.. but what do i have to put on thE PC??? already tried the command.. but nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
Working on it!

Sorry, I was a little busy past weeks, I have bug reports and I am working on them, you will see a newer version soon that will be faster and safer.

Meanwhile, if it didn't work for you without su, enable the su option and then click on the widget, when the app got the permission, you need to wait a little or maybe click on it one or two time to enable/disable adb over wifi, after that it will work like a charm without any delay. Again I am working on it to make it faster and fix this bug and I am thinking of some new features.

I will also post the APK of newer version here, although I really prefer people get it from market so I can have an estimate of downloads.
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
The su permission required on some ROMS, for example, I need it for my new ROM (gingerbread) but for the old one, it worked without it.

The ADB connection would not have su permission, and you need to run su command in the shell after the connection established.
[Android Apps and Games] bohlool:
The program is very simple and there is no security risk, people with enough knowledge can disassemble it and check the source code, I would love to find some time and clean the code and make it open source, but bug fix is first priority.

Have fun.
[Android Apps and Games] Anoniem100:

Looks like this will also work on non rooted phones...

I think we who have this issue likely have to setup/configure something in our router to get it working. I just don't know what...
[Android Apps and Games] radadev:
Would it be at all possible to get the source for this? I'd like to incorporate it into the cyanogen widgets. Let me know, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] JeepFreak:
That would be a nice addition! I doubt the source to this is necessary though... all it takes to turn adb via wifi on is 3 lines in the terminal:

On:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd

Off:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port -1
stop adbd
start adbd

Billy
[Android Apps and Games] mr.marcus:
I got the IP and Port to show up but since I'm in linux can anyone help me out here....
[Android Apps and Games] JeepFreak:
You got them to show up on what? When?

Billy
[Android Apps and Games] onaips:
Very nice app!

I'm very interested on getting this to work without root permissions, if it was possible, i can take screenshots on the device as well!

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] JeepFreak:
Type this in the terminal:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd
getprop service.adb.tcp.port

If the last command doesn't return "5555" then your ROM isn't capable of turning it on without superuser access. If it does return "5555" then you're fine. You could always install the GScript app and save the first 3 lines of the code above as a script.

Get the Dimmer app from the market, it drops the screen "0%" brightness from 18% default to 10% and I find it perfect.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ivegottheskill:
I just tested 3 apps on the market. Dimmer is good, but quite simplistic. Varies the brightness between "10" and whatever you have it set at. Apparently Android's idea of 0% is "18".

I also tried "Brightness Level" which gives a bit more control and allows you to set 0%, 25%, 75%, 100% and Auto. 0% setting in Brightness Level appears to be the same as the level of "10" that Dimmer allows. The program gives a percentage indicator of brightness.

Brighterrific may be very marginally 'better' at dimming the screen. It allows you to set a minimum and maximum brightness. If I set it to 0% in the program and then compare, it says the brightness has been set to -3% (according to the brightness percentage indicator in "Brightness Level"). The difference between 0 and -3 isn't very visible to me, but maybe it'll save slightly more battery life. I also noticed that clicking on Dimmer won't work after setting it to a level of -3%; maybe because the program doesn't recognise a level lower than it's default lowest level of "10"?

Obviously lower levels must be possible if Dimmer indicates that it's lowest level has a value of 10; it must be possible to set it to 0 or 1 somehow. Needless to say, if anyone finds a program which can set -30% let me know :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Voxhound:
Thanks folks. I have installed Dimmer and I am happy with the screen brightness.

Evo: .5" thick

Epic: .56" thick

Oh wow, much slimmer than tp2 I wonder if my leather case will be too big for it
[Epic 4G General] javahead76:
Have both in hand

I know there are dimensions out there to exact-ify this; but, I'll give you my in hand opinion.

The Epic is somewhat flatter but also slightly wider and taller. The Epic is also lighter by what "feels" like 20-30 percent. All in all, bulk factor is greater with the touch pro 2. They are in the same class of big phones but the Epic is a slight improvement.

Seeing people with the latest larger phones to their head though, and the touch pro 2 doesn't seem as obtrusive.

If you're thinking of switching out, I think size is a non-issue.
[Epic 4G General] javahead76:
case size

The Epic does *squeeze* into the TP2 case from T-Mobile. It seems too tight to be a viable option. It also doesn't fit in the G1 case that I occasionally use for the TP2.
