HD7 (looking at the specs "on paper") has only some minor changes regarding the current HD2; - internal storage instead (Europe version has 8GB, Asian version will have 16GB :mad:) of micro sd-cards

- only 3 keys instead of 5

But it will still be a pain in the *ss to port everything over to the HD2.... (but it will be done in due time :))

I ain't gonna buy anyone a phone, except my girl, if she decides to get rid of her iPhone4 :p:D

By the way; only difference between HTC 7 Trophy and HTC 7 Mozart will be external design. Difference between these 2 and the HD7 will be screen size (the first two will be 3.8", the HD7 will be 4.3").

The best thing people should do, is wait untill there are some new processors released (+ 1,2 GHz), as for now all new HTC WP7 devices will have the same snapdragon as the current HD2 :)

Grtz,

Degake

[Nexus One Accessories] disdain735:
Edit: bought one from ebay, worked fine. Sounds a bit tinny, but beggars can't be choosers. I'm just glad to have it working.

I finally found a place with replacement speakers for the Nexus One. I had to email them to inquire about it because it wasn't listed on their site. They later emailed me back saying they had to check if their supplier had them.

Then they emailed me back telling me they've listed the part. I know a lot of people have had problems with theirs crackling, and mine blew out entirely.

So for anyone interested, here's the link (if I can post links, not sure.)

http://www.globaldirectparts.com/OEM-Google-Nexus-One-Speaker-p/htc736640.htm

The minimum buy limit however is 5, and I plan on buying some. So if anyone needs one let me know.

And just for fun, let me tell you all what I've put my Nexus through.

First, within the first 2 months of release I dropped it from my lap while getting out of the car and shattered the screen. I've since managed to replace the digitizer and got it up and working perfectly again.

Then, I dropped it in a tub of water, while it was on and I was watching youtube videos!

That time I managed to save all but the speaker, by quickly pulling the battery, then giving it an alcohol bath.
[Nexus One Accessories] disdain735:
Update!

There's now one listed on Ebay for $5.98, they have over 10 in stock.

I've just placed an order, I'll report back here with my results when it arrives.
[Nexus One Accessories] jaszek:
At least the speaker is easy to replace.
[Nexus One Accessories] xyellx:
need better speaker rather then the oem's :(
[Nexus One Accessories] Zephyron:
did you replace the digitizer yourself? or did u send it in for repairs and if so how much did it cost? I recently cracked my screen T_T
[Nexus One Accessories] damngood98:
just bought a used nexus and the speaker is awful. where'd you'd see about doing the replacement yourself?
[Nexus One Accessories] disdain735:
Zephyron: yes, I replaced it myself. I ordered the digitizer off of ebay for around $70.that was about 2 months after the phone came out. Prices should have dropped by now.

Damngood98: from my digitizer repair I knew replacing the speaker would be a simple job of dropping the part in. all you need to do is remove the black plastic housing where the battery sits (3 security screws and some gentle prying with an ipod pry tool) and just swap the parts.
[Nexus One Accessories] wootroot:
i saw that you posted a link to the site that has them with a minimum order, and then mentioned you found it on ebay

any chance that you ordered a batch of them and have an extra laying around? would hate to have to wait 3-4 weeks to get one from hong kong :(
[Nexus One Accessories] RogerPodacter:
are these stock speakers or are they better quality than stock? i'd be curious to buy one off you if they are better sounding.
[Nexus One Accessories] ROM_Guest:
Are any of these ebay "buzzer" speakers, the same thing as the N1 external speaker?

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
I am not sure if anybody is aware of this app but IMO it is one of the best apps out there and takes advantage of the "4G" speeds of the G2. Stream your entire music collection to your phone (you can also download it directly for offline listening) or to any computer you want. I have been using this since I got my G2 and it is a very very cool app.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] bucksatan:
Thanks for the post...now that I can stream my entire iTunes library the G2 experience just got a whole lot better.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] roman.gsr:
Ill try it out
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mac404:
I like it...it's much slicker than SkyTunes, in my opinion. It also doesn't have the "stuttering when not in the app" problem that SkyTunes does (as I imagine the Android app is native).
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
Skytunes has potential as adobe air apps mature. Especially when air goes out on iphone (advantage of air, write once for many platforms).

If anyone has problems make sure you read the website. Most problems come from port forwarding.

I always wanted a huge microsd card. My current size of my mp3 collection is roughly 55gbs and dreamed of the day that I could carry all my music. Never have to worry about that again.

And with google getting into doing this very thing this app/service does... watch out.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mac404:
I don't mean to diss SkyTunes too much, but it still feels really unfinished. I had no problems forwarding the port myself (something that I know Subsonic can do for you with uPnP, though), and I read that the update may help with the audio stuttering. That's definite progress, but Subsonic feels much more finished already.

Do any of you know what I have to do to stream music from my comp over 3g? I can stream over my wifi but on regular cell data it just trys to connect then fails.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
You are going to have to look at your router settings and forward the port to your computer most likely.

I wanted to restored my Nexus One to Factory.

Sick of getting 2.2.1 pushed on my N1 and have it fail.

I recovery mode it says restore to factory but even this did not work it did not completely restore everything.

The Clockwork recovery partition stayed.

So when Google want to push 2.2.1 ...... it fails still.

You can not completely wipe your phone ???

Please did not tell me i need to adp or whatever it is called push anything because I really do not want to go through that.

Would it be possible to use the wifi calling feature from the g2?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmegalodon:
Just saw the header at AC. Is it free WiFi calling or something?

Has to be since you can already make calls over WiFi with the Evo ... right? :confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newsoundwave:
err i don't think it works on Evo.

It's available in Android 2.2, but it's up to the network and the phone developer to allow it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmegalodon:
Not sure why I said has to be, or what that even pertained too.

Was more a question of "why" since you already can, unless it was free. Can't find any info on it being free, so why port? Even if it worked, unless it was free. Guess that's what I meant if that even makes sense.

SWYPED from my SUPASONIC
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -viperboy-:
I believe that part of the UMA technology that allows wi-fi calling is hardware based but I wonder how the wi-fi calling works? It might not check back with the network looking for a feature to be on your account, it could just route it via WiFi. I really don't know. It would be helpful to have a dev look at the .apk but I haven't seen it posted or seen the OTA for the G2 yet. This would be WONDERFUL if we could get this working!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teeto:
Sounds like it would be routed as voip with you network number.. Kind of like an airave.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cayniarb:
I am pretty sure that the Evo does this already. I heard a Sprint employee say so in a store (though that should hardly be taken to mean that it is fact), and I can make and receive phone calls in my office, where I have zero cell service, but do have wifi.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
BS. Sprint doesn't do calls over WiFi. Odds are, when you made the call, it dropped to the 1X 850MHz network, but when you looked at the service bars, it was on the 3G 1900MHz network.

As for the OP, no, it won't work. The T-Mo' WiFi calling will use their private VoIP servers and accounts. Your best bet is still to get your own SIP client (like Sipdroid), provider (like Sipgate), and tie that into Google Voice.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Genjinaro:
IMHO Our best bet at WiFi calling (On Sprint) will be with using a solution via SIPDroid, Nimbuzz or Skype.

This has been happening for months. And no, there is no setting you need to change in order to recieve 4G data speeds.
[HD2 General] xnifex:
Just to let you know, it's not actual 4G either. Tmobile just markets it at 4G speeds because their HSPA+ is currently as fast/faster than Sprints wimax service. When Tmobile goes to LTE, then it will really be 4G

done the same way as the other sdcard method. not exactly moving forward.
[G2 and Desire Z General] cyanogen:
What I'm doing is bringing in all the necessary modifications to *userspace* to build from source and support all the hardware. This is not simply pushing files around. There are a lot of changes for 7x30 required since much of the audio and video output works completely different than what we (and AOSP partially) currently support.

It's not a step forward towards a real root, but a step forward towards having something you can build from scratch and do whatever you'd like with.

Because of cyanogen's work, when the real root happens we will have his amazing rom to use =D

How do I backup my stock kernel before I flash a new one like Hydra or King? I've been searching for a while and can't find instructions...

thanks in advance!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdmba:
...

I believe nandroid backs up the kernel BUT

You can use ROMMANAGER and under Virtuous, you should be able to find the stock kernel, should you need to replace it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevez48:
Ahhhh... Awesome. Didn't know that. thanks! And I can flash a new kernel using ROM manager as well, right? Just point to the zip and go? Do a back up of course :-)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Yes, I have seen that when you install a ROM, customize it, install a kernel, do a backup, when you restore it does restore with the kernel you backed it up with when the backup was done. You should be good with flashing the kernel through Recovery.

Always good to keep backups, as after a ROM install I backup right way, then customize the screens/icons the way I like, back up again, and so on...

Hey everyone

Loving my G2... one quick question tho... I just setup appbrain, and according to its update manager, a bunch of my preinstalled apps like twitter, streetview and like 6 or 7 others need to be updated, but in the market app, it doesn't show any need to be updated... is it safe to let appbrain update them? Thanks!

Dave
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
I manually updated a number of the pre-installed apps through the market on the phone. No issues here, except they now register updates correctly :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
Haha yea apparently the twitter app is from september and id imagine there's been an update since then... I guess ill give it a try and update the ones its recommending, but ill manually check them in the market first to be sure...
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
Oh one addition... just using twitter as an example... just went to the market and it says its "Free" ... as in not installed and u can download now for free... is this kinda weird?
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
I'm assuming it's normal behavior, both android phones I've had have done this with pre-installed apps (or the gapps package from cyanogen's mod). They don't seem to sync with market. Reinstalling the market one over the pre-installed just updates (if it's a different version) and syncs to market for future updates.

Except for Google Goggles right now ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] smasraum:
The Market app doesn't search your phone for apps and then check the market. When you install an app from the market, your phone gets some sort of cached entry that says "we just installed XXXX, make sure you check to see if XXXX has updates." So if you didn't have to install the app, then you won't be notified of updates for that app. Or something that's provides a similar end result. It's always been that way.
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
Cool. Thanks for the info. That's what I needed to know :-)

I love this phone...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] eldavar:
I have the stock AT&T Pure.

For some reason I can't figure out, the camera isn't working properly anymore. It starts up fine, the autofocus works, I can enter the Settings and the Advanced Settings menus and change settings without problem.

However, when I touch the shutter button to actually take the photo, the camera responds like it should, makes the shutter sound, and even displays the photo I just took on the screen. But that's where it freezes. The photo "review" never goes away. I've even tried changing the review duration to zero, but when I take a picture the screen just becomes white and freezes there. The "back" arrow button below the screen does not respond when this happens, nor does the Home button. But the "end call" button does take me to the home today screen. From there, if I go back to the camera tab and touch the icon to start the camera, nothing happens. The button responds visually when I touch it, but the camera does not start. Only a soft reset (or sometimes running CleanRAM at Level 3) will make the camera app start again, but still not completely take a photo. No photo is actually stored/saved when this happens.

I thought it might be due to lack of free memory, but even after a soft reset or running CleanRAM this still happens. I even tried reducing the resolution to see if that did anything, but it didn't.

I think it has to be one of the other apps I installed that's interfering with the camera. After a hard reset, the camera worked fine. Then after I installed my apps this started happening again. Nothing I can see in the registry settings for the camera look incorrect or out of the ordinary. Only one or two of my apps have functions that access the camera, and the same thing happens when I enter the picture mode in them. I removed both of them but still have the same experience.

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] joooe:
I'm afraid there is no other way:

- hard reset

- install your apps one by one, softresetting each time

- check the camera

- install another app

...

In the end you will know what's wrong.

Time to replace my old HTC Diamond isn't ? On paper, the Galaxy seems by far the best option. However, users complain about GPS,

which is very important to me

, and lag which is quite annoying.

Are those problems solved when installing Froyo ? I don't mind modifying the phone as I have been doing it for a couple years with the Diamond.

The next best option seems to be the Nexus 1. I really don't know what to do !

Comments ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkoroje:
The GPS problem is not fixed (at least for me) in Froyo JPK. If GPS is a key feature for you I would advise to wait for official Froyo to see if the GPS is fixed, or, alternatively, buy a different Android phone.

The lag problem is not fixed either, however you can root the phone and install Voodoo or one-click lag fix and that does fix the lag.

for me neither of the lag fixes actually impact on the day to day use of the phone, it still lags.

Yes my quadrant scores are a hell of alot faster but in real life the homescreen with widgets open still stutters

I am in the same boat currently, im impatient, but luckily in the position that if when froyo arrives it solves the issues, i can always go and purchase another SGS

There are numerous users who have experianced hardly any lag and good GPS performance, i unfortunatley am not one of those people no matter what rom i use
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilboa1:

as for lag, real lag fix eg voodoo makes it fine for me, but froyo currently does not fix lag. Maybe final.
