[Nexus One General] DamagedFruit:
It will be hard to find an adequate replacement even in the near future, the Nexus One was a hell of a contender in the power, performance and build quality. it's also still way more beautiful than any Droid (HTC, Moto) or G2. Guess I'm just wanting the next step up in this class of excellency.:cool:
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
Here this looks like a great contender!

[Nexus One General] RellikZephyr:
The Mozilla Seabird would be a worthy replacement for nexus

Rellikzephyr
[Nexus One General] inhuman5000:
the "mytouch HD" should be coming out in the near future.

3.8” display

Swype enabled keyboard

5MP camera with VGA front camera

HSPA+ capable

Video Chat over 3G or WiFi via Qik

Screen share feature, “Broadcast your HD pictures, videos, and movies to your HDTV”

“Genius” button

4GB internal storage with 8GB external SD included, expandable to 32GB

1 GHz Dual Processor

what i want to know is when is a better unlocked phone like the nexus one will come out. Meaning a phone not sold by tmobile that works with tmobile 3g/4g

bands that i can use the 9.99 dumbphone internet so tmobile wont find out.
[Nexus One General] mark925:
Right now I'd say the G2 is the best replacement to get....until the inevitable next best thing comes out.
[Nexus One General] :
another nexus 1.......... or wait
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
I am actually surprised, even with all the great new android phones that have been released recently, i still can't find one that solidly trumps the Nexus one. It is a shame how poorly marketed it was, compared to the Desire or the Motorola Droid.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
The Mytouch doesn't have a dual processor, whatever that's supposed to mean. It has a second generation Snapdragon at 1ghz, paired with the Adreno 205. Comes with a few games preinstalled, including Asphalt 5, so I imagine the graphics performance will be as good or better than Hummingbird. ;)
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
I want that Android decal in gunmetal to match the writing on the back of the phone... anyone know where to get it?
[Nexus One General] AllanJacques:
Desire HD maybe?

I am at the same spot and have been considering desire hd for the job...
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
So true...Still holding it's own even with new devices & no marketing!
[Nexus One General] spielnicht:
If I absolutely had to change my N1 right now, I'd be screwed cause there is nothing out there that entices me as much as my N1. I'm loving the looks and design of the Desire HD...but it's neither available with AT&T 3G compatibility nor does it have a front-facing camera, not to mention I'm more for the plain Android UI.

I'll definitely hold off until Q2 2011 to see what comes out from HTC. By then the iPhone 5 will be out...get it from AT&T for $199 and offload it on eBay for $800 to some stupid Apple troll, this is how I fund my unlocked Android phones :D
[Nexus One General] juggaknot77:
It'll be hard to replace my nexus one, not even the g2 looks enticing next to my mint nexus one.

I'll be holding on to my n1 until google and htc get together again and release a super phone that can beat the nexus in everyway possible.
[Nexus One General] Yaotl:
I keep looking at all the just released or soon to be released phones and can't really justify a change. Sure they might have a bigger screen, a slightly faster cpu, or a full keyboard, but I haven't really hit a wall with the N1 that would require an "upgrade".
[Nexus One General] norazi:
all i want is:

- 4" SAMOLED or SLCD

- better GPU

- true multitouch panel

- ease in rooting/modding

- T-Mobile support

- no stupid chrome/shiny plastic

Samsung Galaxy S fits most of that for me.
[Nexus One General] aloudermilk:
I love my dell streak. It is an awesome replacement to my N1
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
I am on Vibrant now......amazing phone. TouchWiz is great too (not the launcher). SAMOLED is just WOW. But there is one big BUT, no Froyo. They keep pushing it back and back....the phone will probably NEVER see Gingerbread in its lifetime.

I am pretty sure Froyo on Vibrant will come when Nexus will be running Gingerbread already.

And not to mention the development.....Vibrant has one, maybe 2 good ROMs that are pretty much stock with minor changes. This is probably gonna stay this way for a long time. All rumors on CM port faded away......

I am currently thinking about switching back to Nexus......still thinking, very hard decision
[Nexus One General] Chahk:
[A] Another N1!!!

;)
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Lets say you lost your N1 and wanted a similar phone you could buy today? I'd probably end up going with the MyTouch HD. Its the most similar phone to the N1 in terms of looks and features in my opinion.
[Nexus One General] lpasq:
+1

:D:p;)
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
Speaking of the lack of Froyo on the Galaxy S, isn't Gingerbread coming next month? *excited*
[Nexus One General] Dai323:
+1 on that. Holding on to my Nexus until something EPIC comes out. Gonna be hard topping the Nexus One. I really LOVE this phone.

[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Totally agree. Still I have trouble finding a replacement for my nexus. It's such a great device:-)
[Nexus One General] yumcax:
Check the Vibrant forums, very soon you will be able to buy a 16 dollar front facing camera and stick it in your Vibrant, but the devs are working out software issues now.
[Nexus One General] krabman:
I am the type that doesnt move on until a true upgrade is available. Right now I see nothing that I perceive to be a real upgrade. Gotta figure outside of any possible N2 scenario like it or not while the phone is still top notch now it is starting to show some age. A new developer phone is coming in one fashion or another not too far down the road that will have the hardware needed to drive newer software. It is inevitable. That will likely be the one for me if it shows up soon enough.
[Nexus One General] bsharitt:
I would advise against the Vibrant at least. I actually just went from the Vibrant to a Nexus One. Don't get me wrong, the Virbrant hardware is good and the screen looks great, but Samsung screwed up the software side pretty bad(so it might become aviable option when/if Cyanogenmod becomes available). There are little hacks and crap you can apply to slightly mitigate some of the software problems like the GPS problems and lag issues, but even those aren't always perfect.

I would probably wait until sometime next year for a new HTC release. In my opinion, the Nexus One is still the best phone available for T-Mobile, so there's not really and upgrade to it right now.

There's also the issue that this is a Samsung Android phone, and their track record so far isn't great(actually it's pretty terrible) on the update front. Not only is there the long wait for updates, but then there is the uncertainty of updates in the future. I personally wouldn't bet on the Galaxy S line getting much past 2.2. The Behold II was lucky to make it to 1.6 and the Moment was declared dead at 2.1 when it was only 8 months old despite the hardware being capable of 2.2 and it was even stock Android with no touchwiz to port.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
Coming from Nexus (since launched) to Vibrant (also since launched) and then back to Nexus yesterday (only for a day), this is what i can add......4'' SAMOLED vs 3.7'' AMOLED is just night and day difference in real estate, quality, and in touchscreen functionality. The speaker is also night and day difference, Nexus has a horrible speakerphone.

BUT, all the bull**** Samsung + Tmobile have, I just dont know if I can deal with this. Sammy said Froyo coming in September...........NOT, Froyo coming in October rumor.....NOT, then finally in Oct. we get a crappy update to fix GPS issues which will be rolling out up until late October......meanwhile Droid X which was released later then Vibrant already has official Froyo, and ATT Galaxy already has leaked Froyo.......I just dont get it.

It was such a big disaster to release Galaxy line in FIVE different versions. ALL are different, NONE are perfect, cases dont fit one another, and software is incompatible too <<< and yet 99% of hardware in all 5 phones is the same.
[Nexus One General] massari90:
There is no replacement right now imo. Wait for the google nexus two lol
[Nexus One General] Nikropht:
The best option is to wait. There is a lot of Android hotness in the pipeline. I have heard convincing suggestions that Verizon will have an LTE Android very soon like Q1.

And in Q2 the dualcore phones come out. I just hope the battery manufacturers can keep up with the phone technology demands.
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
Well I've currently a Galaxy S, but soon I will have an N1. The Galaxy S is a promising phone on paper, let down by truly horrid implementation of software. GPS doesn't work properly, the phone is slow and unstable without lag fixes, and in general has odd little bugs and quirks that really take the shine off ownership. The camera also isn't all that - I actually find I prefer the N1 camera - it has a flash, and has better picture quality of the box.

Yes the screen is very nice though, and that is the one thing I'll miss the most about it, but I'd take a slightly smaller / poorer screen and have a phone which is stable and reliable in every day use, and for that, I honestly believe the N1 kicks dust in the SGS face.

Its all very well having great specs, but its only as good as the software that runs on it, and in this case, its appalling.
[Nexus One General] renegadEEE:
I'm waiting for the droid pro to arrive. I always loved the blackberry form factor but hated the OS. With the droid pro that's solved.
[Nexus One General] ste1164:
Doesn't the new mytouch have a front facing camera? Maybe you will like that?
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
After my rant here, I decided to keep Vibrant for now......will see if it finally gets that Froyo this year and will see if Nexus will get Gingerbread (and whats it all about).....

My decesion is based on the fact that i am already using Vibrant and in order to switch to Nexus, I will have to go through some trouble of selling Vibrant or talking my gf into giving me my Nexus back :) Also its based on the fact that SAMOLED is the BEST screen available today and in near future (due to lack of production of ALOMED displays). Blacks are black, brighness can be at minimal setting and yet I can still see the screen in sunlight, touch is much more percise then on Nexus and therefore its easier to type, screen is 4'' which is perfect (i think 4.3'' is just too much and 3.7'' is too little)
[Nexus One General] going_home:
Honestly I cant see a phone thats significantly better than the Nexus.

Its looking like it may be Q2 of next year before anything significantly better is

released by TMO or directly from Google again.

:o
[Nexus One General] jasrups:
This is how I feel. If you can afford to buy another phone, or are one of those people who absolutely must have the top of the line phone at all times, then get a Vibrant or G2 I guess. For most people however, it would be foolish to upgrade right now.

The next phone I buy will need to have: HDMI out, SLCD or SAMOLED screen, Dual-Core processor w/ better GPU and a Front facing camera. Those would be the minimum requirements for me to replace my N1.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
I cant even think of upgrading from my N1 since for me none of these features are must haves.

HDMI output = limited to videos taken in the gallery section?

Dual Core processor = uses more power and causes crappy battery life?

Front facing camera = the hot new feature in Europe 5 yrs ago and still NO ONE uses it?

SAMOLED = this is the one feature I would like... but upgrading from my Nexus and being under the carriers control over my phone for it?

I really just can't think of a feature that I really need to upgrade. The N1 is perfect :)

Guess it's a good thing not to feel any need to upgrade whatsoever and that I already have the perfect phone. Saves me alot of money ;)
[Nexus One General] jasrups:
Of course none of these features are essential, by definition the only essential features I need are voice calling, SMS, and GPS. Everything else is for my own pleasure (like many of the N1 features are).

HDMI - Would be amazing for having your phone act as your media hub. Watching/Streaming movies from phone to TV would be pretty neat and it would be a feature I would use often. Also great for having a portable library of movies that you can watch on the road or at a friends house.

Dual-core processors - They might use more battery but I'm hoping that battery technology will advance as well.

Front facing camera - the hardware technology has been out there for a while but there wasn't very good software to back it up. Just look at how quickly Face Time has gotten with the iPhone. It would be cool to use a 3rd party app that would allow for cross platform video calling/conferencing (sort of like what Kik or Ping does for chatting).

But hey if your Nexus is still keeping you happy 6 months from now then by all means keep it! It's a great phone
[Nexus One General] cesarydolores:
Best Phone Ever....

I've had my nexus one since day one and I can't imagine finding a replacement for this phone. I rooted my phone, almost 3 months ago and it is amazing the things you can do. Since the galaxy came out, I was wondering how I can get that look of the User Interface. I have two screenshots of my current rom Enmother's 2.13.2... w/ galaxy s theme and vooaalaa ! I have a Galaxy s theme with nexus one speed and features. I also liked the Desire HD and evil's rom is sick.. I felt like I bought a new phone ! So I really can't say that I would ever replace my n1, until they come out with a superphone like maybe nexus 2..? Everyone that has a rooted nexus knows where I am coming from. Nexus One... best phone ever.Period. Iphone who?....
[Nexus One General] southeastbeast:
There is no suitable replacement yet. I just returned my g2 today and had buyers ready to buy my nexus one and dock with all boxing and bags for $450. I couldn't part with it.

Although the g2 was better technically speaking, inthe end it was about sex factor. Nexus One feels better in my hand and looks better. It didn't get the Nick name sexy nexy nothing >;]

[Nexus One General] fzr-r4:
well, if you're into rooting and cutting edge OS updates, then the answer is:

the next sanctioned developer phone. feature sets are finally inching past the N1, but it's still capable, and it still gets updates first. that's why it's my favorite option, and it's why i'm happy to enjoy it while i wait.
[Nexus One General] justclimb:
I've heard a rumour about another DevPhone being used by Google to develop Gingerbread due to hardware limitations...

When the rumor changes into fact... we can take our Nexus inside a wastebin for good.

Until then...the answer is:

NONE!
[Nexus One General] source.rar:
Would the HTC Desire qualify as a N1 replacement?
[Nexus One General] Chahk:
Unless a handset can "fastboot oem unlock", it's not a true Nexus One replacement. Hopefully Google will keep partnering up with HTC for every major Android version. Doesn't look good for Gingerbread (2.5?), so maybe next year's 3.0 (Honeycomb?) will prompt an ADP4.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -=HOLLYW00D=-:
it seems like i'm still showing ~300MB total RAM (90MB free) with the leaked Captivate Froyo rom. i'm using an app called "Android System Info". should i not be seeing closer to the 512MB mark?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbong777:
Same around 300....But I don't think I will be multitasking to the extent where I will need 500MB. I close BG apps routinely I am not using.......to save data.

I usually keep all Email syncing on, Latitude and sync FB as needed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kizzmiazz:
The amount of ram its the same in froyo. I tried android system info and same results. Try using the built in task manager in your apps. I have a feeling its more accurate than asi. I'm showing much better ram usage with built in task manager. 190-230 free on froyo opposed to 50-120 free with 2.1.

Oh yeah you can just push and hold your home button and then hit task manager on the multi tasker.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
ATT might have the RAM locked at a lower number so we do not meet the requirements for Android 3.0. That way when everyone starts pissing and moaning when they don't release it, they can say sorry...

Or they saved some money and put in less RAM in the U.S. models. I don't have the box or spec sheet in front of me but I do not recall ATT ever saying the Captivate has 512 MB RAM. Everyone just assumed it because the Galaxy S and other variants do.

I never had an Android device before, does it show physical RAM or addressable? What does the Intl. Galaxy S show? If it is the same as us then I guess we can't complain as much.

Perhaps the badass GPU in our phones uses shared RAM? Or maybe the address space is limited for some reason.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeybear23:
Eclair is incapable of seeing more than 304 MB, and the leaked Froyo is still just a leak and not an official release. Just sit back and relax. If the official Froyo does not utilize all 512, then we'll have a reason to complain...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snieves:
I've read somewhere around here that we will never see all 512mb of ram, because 128mb of that ram is dedicated to video... no sure how true it all is though.. my 2 cents
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek4484:
The phone only has 304MB available to the OS as RAM. The rest is reserved for some other function such as ramdisk or vram, or maybe both. I've emailed samsung numerous times but they wont even admit that. They just reply simply, "The Captivate does indeed have 512MB of RAM.... blah blah blah, etc etc etc." Getting a straight answer out of Samsung is like drinking soup with a corkscrew, just not possible. Its like trying to find out if JH7 had a GPS fix or not. They wont say definitively whether it did or didnt.

This time, I ported GTX Hero and Neue, both by signals23 :D

Original Threads:

GTX Hero

Neue

Only thing I really want to do to this is make some wifi/bt/battery/3G/H/E icons, as I don't like the ones in the theme very much.

In the Addon Pack, you'll find a version of Fancy Widget, as well as various icons and dock backgrounds that go great with these themes. I recommend using the Dock Backgrounds and one of the wallpapers from the Neue folder, disable wallpaper scrolling, and use icons from the GTX LauncherPro folder.
