Nice icons. I learned digital graphics on Fireworks :)
[EVO 4G General] secondskin:
I've noticed that the results seemed to be fairly different when using speakeasy.net versus speedtest.net and wonder what peoples' opinions are about which is more accurate.

Here's an example: If I use speedtest.net when in 4g I get results much lower than with speakeasy.net. An example would be that with speedtest my dl might only be 4mpbs while speakeasy will say 10mbps. The results are the same if I test my netbook on Verizon Fios. For example while speakeasy will say I'm getting close to 20mbps speedtest will say 8/9mbps.

I wold like to believe that speakeasy is more accurate but am really not sure.

What are your opions?
[EVO 4G General] smarmytime:
It's probably got more to do with the server that it's using for the test, than anything else. Although using the New York server option for both, I'm showing about the same results. YMMV.
[EVO 4G General] Sener69:
I get 10mbs+ for downloads on speedtest.net
[Nexus One General] domonas:
So I decided to jump on the bandwagon and get an N1. This will be my first smartphone purchase and am pretty excited. Can't wait for monday when it arrives!
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Another thing... the guy I bought it from installed the Cyanogen Mod 6.0... can anyone tell me what the major benefits are? Do you think I should reinstall the original firmware so I can get used to the "stock" OS before moving on to the more advanced OS?
[Nexus One General] Mokurex:
it's a great rom. you should try it first before reverting to stock.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
is it possible to revert back to the original rom? i presume there's some download site somewhere.
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
Another N1 newbie here, get mine on tuesday, got it for a great price, so I have "downgraded" from the Samsung Galaxy S, but to be honest, I'm expecting more speed, a better camera, and more stability, but unfortunately a worse screen. Oh well, cant have everything i suppose. Stability and performance are more important to me than that at the moment.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Yes, very easy if needs be.
[Nexus One General] SugarMouth:
My Vibrant is everybit as reliable as my N1, sorry your experience was different.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
So another question. Will AT&T recognize this phone... ie: will I need to buy the smartphone data plan? My friend has an unlocked Nokia E71 and since AT&T doesn't recognize it as a smartphone, he can buy the unlimited data plan for a feature phone... anyone use the N1 on AT&T that has any info?
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
Yes, quite. I'm disappointed - I would have kept it if it had worked OK.

Main problems for me are useless GPS, and random freezing and shutting down... all of these problems have happened whichever firmware or ROM I use. I got lag, but thats sorted now with the latest lag fix.

Such a shame. The screen is wonderful. But its the only thing about it i'll miss TBH.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Working GPS + LED flash + Updates months before directly Google without having to root + Quality build + AMOLED >>>>>>>>>>>>> SuperAMOLED

Could care less about the clearpad since I play my emulators with a bluetooth wiimote anyways.

Nexus One >>>>>>>>> Vibrant
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
If you're asking will AT&T recognize it as a smartphone and "upgrade" your data? Yes they will.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
more questions.. lol. is it possible to load apps on an SD card? 512 internal memory seems kinda low.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Yes it is. Android 2.2 has it's own method or you can opt for the SU apps2ext method.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I have a class 4 4gig micro sd card. hope that's enough! i can't wait for this phone to arrive.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Congratz! You picked one of the best smartphone around! :cool: Enjoy it ;)
[Nexus One General] sl8125:
Are you sure? I have the att n1 and on the unlimited medianet plan. I guess it depends where you at.

And yes you will not regret it. It runs with no lag no glitch no problem.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
What state do you live? If I can get the unlimited medianet plan on this phone, that would be awesome. But I'm ok with their smartphone plans too...
[Nexus One General] sl8125:
Hou tx
[Nexus One General] going_home:
I still have the G1 customer loyalty plan.

I bought a MyTouch Slide off contract and didnt like it, and took it back.

Meanwhile my mother wanted my G1 so I went on Craigslist and bought a MyTouch for cheap.

I soon tired of waiting for Froyo for the device and went back on the list and picked up a Nexus.

This phone is awesome.

Now here I am in here to see if I can learn something about Android.

And maybe if I can get my courage up root and mod it.

:D
[Nexus One General] sl8125:
Say what? No root yet. That's crazy. N1 is all about modification. Yeah it gets annoying waiting for a new firmware update. Ask all galaxy s owners. They all brag about how their benchmark scores are higher then the n1. Who they kidding. That's why I got rid of the captivate. Just tried it out for couple of weeks but came back to the n1.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
My plan is to just pop in my sim card and see what happens on their end. I heard they send a text message fairly quickly (like within a few minutes) if they detect the use of a smartphone without a data plan.

For those with the N1 on AT&T, do you have the unlimited, 2gig or 200meg plan? What do you suggest I get, the 2gig or 200meg? I have wifi at home and at school... do you think the 200 megs is more than enough?
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Thank goodness that the person I bought it from already has Cyanogen mod on it... I wouldn't know the first thing about rooting. I looked at the forums and it still doesn't quite make sense. I guess a few weeks/months of getting used to the phone, I'll be ready to tweak things to the way I like it.
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
Congrats... N1 is a great phone and id suggest keeping cm6 until gingerbread rolls through... Which we will get first :)
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
I once had 2,400 on that quadrant benchmark on my SGS, and yet I could still see from looking at videos of the N1 which was actually the faster phone in day to day use, and it wasn't the Galaxy S.

A phone is only as good as the software, and the Samsung implementation of android really is pretty dire, and I've no hopes of it ever really being resolved fully and IMO there's no way on earth the SGS will be getting Gingerbread, which is why I'm swapping mine for an N1.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Ouch!

That would be pretty rough for Galaxy owners out there ;)

Nexus Owners... bask in the glory of the Nexus One! :D

Gingerbread here we come! :)
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Why do you say that? any reports or just an opinion?
[Nexus One General] peliROJO:
I think you should go back to stock to see what that's like. then test each of the custom ROMS.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I think ultimately that's what I'll do... but I need to learn just the basics first. I tried reading some of the threads on rooting, unlocking, loading, etc... but I think all that's just jibberish until I actually have the phone in hand. So I'll use the phone for a few weeks, learn the ins and outs of it... then flash back to stock... then re-flash to some custom ROM's and figure out what I like the best.

Do you have any advice on where to start... like the newbiest of the newbiest guide out there?
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
I've got to shake this habit that I need new technology every so often. Need to realize my n1 is here to stay.
[Nexus One General] Mokurex:
lol, everyone here has that problem.
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
Its an opinion, but given samsungs past, and current track record (i.e. gps not fixed after 4 months), I'd be very surprised to see Gingerbread on it. I think they will have dumped the phone for something else before they get round to it.

I had reservations about getting it but decided to throw caution to the wind, I have since watched as phones like the Droid X which came several months after the SGS now already on Froyo while SGS owners are still waiting (and some believe they may not even get it before xmas).
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I'm loving this phone already. So many things on this phone, I'm still so lost. First thing's first. I have Cyanogen Mod 6.0. I don't have facebook or twitter and have no desire to buy music through amazon music. any way to delete those apps?
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I love this phone!
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
LoL I love the double "I love this phone!" back to back the last few days domonas! :D

Could you explain to us the reasons why you love the Nexus One so much? I love to hear the newbies describe how perfect a phone it is :)
[Nexus One General] gotgame740:
yes, my N1 is staying for a WHILE. unless google decides to come out with a Nexus 2.

As of right now, (and most likely for the next 6 months AT LEAST), there really aren't any phones that are significantly better than the N1
[Nexus One General] yayramen:
If it's coming from CM6, then there are a few places to go from there. If you want to get first hand experience, this is what I would suggest:

CM6

Kang-O-Rama

Enom

MIUI (rodriguez's)

in that order.

And to delete apps, download 'titanium backup root'

it lets you uninstall system apps.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
This is my first smartphone so right now everything is just so glorious. It's almost like learning a new language. But the customization, the incredible responsiveness of the phone, the keyboard... I could go on and on.. I'm still learning how to use it, so expect more "wow" moments in the near future!
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I think I'm going to stick with what I have right now... still need to learn just the basics.. but I'll keep this post in mind when I have a few more weeks under my belt.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Anyone know of a widget/app that let's me add the HTC clock/weather to the home screen? one that looks like this?

http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/htc-evo-4g.jpeg
[Nexus One General] Mokurex:
Try beautiful widgets.
[Nexus One General] robotnoize:
Use geoff411 rom. Stock and super smooth!
[Nexus One General] domonas:
doesn't exist anymore :(

also, i'm looking for a "free" app.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I'm gonna hold off on flashing to a diff rom until I get used to just using this phone.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Found it... called fancy widget. More to love. Now I just need to familiarize myself with how to root, install roms, etc...
[Nexus One General] zerodi:
Fancy widgets sense style clock is slighty off if you want the perfect sense clock then download Weather & toggle widget then install HD7 clock perrrrrfect :)

p.s i just brought a nexus waiting for it to arrive so ive joined the bandwagon :D
[Nexus One General] scrizz:
lol just finalized a deal trading my New Vibrant + stuff for an iPhone and a new Nexus one.

:)

i missed u Nexy
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Meh... although it looks great, I don't see that much difference. But thanks for the advice.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
What version of the iPhone?
[Nexus One General] zerodi:
A new nexus one, the one with the SLCD screen ?? any worse / better than the Amoled already on the older model?

Rom usage/ flashing isnt affected with a slcd screen is it? just asking cas i cant tell what mine has got lol

:)
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Just learned how to flash roms and install themes with bootloader. i'm absolutely loving the flexibility of this phone. one question to ask you guys. when something is "pushed via adk" what does that mean?
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
The command

adb push *file* *remote/location*
[Nexus One General] martinl1030:
i live in the boston area and the medianet plan works fine for me. *knocks on wood* I was fortunate enough to get on it while it was still $10 for unlimited but i think att dropped it and the least expensive data plan is $15 for 200mbs now.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
right i've seen the command. but where do we type it? when is it used?
[Nexus One General] clickwir:
My sister just got a Galaxy S the other day, I honestly couldn't really tell a difference in screens. They both looked great.

You might be loosing some quality (maybe) but give it a couple days and you won't even notice.

You can always build a bridge...
[Nexus One General] domonas:
Can I delete the files in the /mnt/asec directory? All that seems to be in there are apk files.
[Nexus One General] domonas:
I think I figured it out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xeon3D:
Good Morning/Afternoon.

I am planning on trying Froyo (at the moment I'm using JM8), but since I'm kinda new to Galaxy S and Android in general, I was hoping to confirm the steps to follow. I've also been reading a lot (here and in a Portuguese Android forum (androidpt.com), and I've seen some contraditory steps between both places. Add some confusion I might be also doing resulting of reading so much in so short time and you got all the ingredients for havoc. :)

Actually I have:

Samsung Galaxy S 8GB from Orange UK Unlocked (GT-I9000) bought second hand.

Product Code: I9000HKDORA

PDA: I9000XWJM8

PHONE: I9000XXJM4

CSC: I9000OXXJM1

OCLF Uninstalled, Can't get the Unlock code (tried the app, a zip file from xda-dev (no codes shown) and both looking at the nv_data.bin & btl3 file (FFFFFFFF on where the unlock code should be).

Backups of:

"EFS" Folder (Copied files & created a zip file on the phone)

ROM Manager Backup (~1.3GB)

"ProductCodeCheck" Folder (Created by SGS Toolbox with some copies of the nv_data files)

What I wanted to do was:

Install Froyo 2.2 (I9000XXJPK)

Change the product/sales code to Portuguese (TPH)

From what I've read / learnt the steps would be:

1 - Factory Reset / Data Wipe via Recovery (I done all the backups I needed)

2 - Flash JPK via ODIN

3 - Factory Reset / Data Wipe via Recovery (according to the JPK thread here)

4 - Root the device

5 - Follow bloodrider's tutorial to change product code to TPH

But I have a few questions and they are:

Q1 - While flashing via Odin, here you guys speak about using PIT 512 and on androidpt forums they go about using 803. What do I use? (I'm thinking 512, since current JM8 was flashed with 512)

Q2 - Can I flash all 4 files on Odin at once (pit, pda, phone, csc)?

Q3 - The CSC file that comes with the JPK rar file is OXA so it doesn't have the Portugal TPH thing. Can I use a CSC OXX from Eclair JM8?

Q4 - Since I'm gonna use bloodrider's tutorial and since he's using a Country specific CSC folder there, will I end with a TPH CSC?

Q5 - Best way / tutorial to root Froyo?

Q6 - LAG Fix - Yes / No? Been reading a bit about Voodoo (on JM8 i used OCLF) and it looks interesting. Is it froyo compatible?

Q7 - Is there any other way to get my unlock code? I'm afraid that updating to froyo will lock my device.

Those are all my questions at the moment, I'd appreciate all the help given.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xeon3D:
I took a leap of faith and flashed froyo. All went ok, I had to change the product code back manually. The only thing not working is that I can't install the one click lag fix.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuzemangler:
Hello,

I have a Htc Fuze p4600 with carrier At__ . ( You know who)

I was wondering if anyone knows how to download the lastest and greatest OS 6.5 on my devise ? Ive been to to the Htc website and my carriers website and cannot find an upgrade for it , any help would be mostly appreciated, and Is there a possibility for WM7 for this devise as thanks

Mr.nobody:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Agent Zach:
Officially, Touch Pros' & Fuzes' don't support Windows Mobile 6.5, but several modern custom ROMs have flawless Windows Mobile 6.5 builds, along with extras. Just peek through the Touch Pro/Fuze ROM Development fora, you'll find several custom ROMs: TAEL, Energy, etc.

I recommend starting here --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=448008
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Skorpyo:
Agent Zach is right in that there is no carrier or OEM upgrade to 6.5 and his recommendations are spot on. As to the question about Windows Phone 7 I can guarantee you there will not be an OEM or carrier upgrade to this platform. It's further unlikely to see custom or cooked ROMs for the touch pro / fuze for WP7 as the core OS is designed around much more stringent hardware requirements that our device does not meet.

Skorpyo
[Droid X General] xmetl:
I just bought a droid x coming from a droid 1. I want to root my phone but I don't want to lose anything. I already downloaded all my old apps from my droid 1 and I really don't feel like doing it again. So does the.current root method for the droid x require wiping data or.ia there any way o can back up everything before I root?
[Droid X General] snwagner:
When I rooted I didn't lose anything, are you on froyo yet?
[Droid X General] gunkle:
Root away your safe.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
How to increase the video quality of the latest you tube video player?

I updated my youtube player to get some new features but in the process it seriously downgraded the video quality compared to the stock HD2 app when using wifi. How do I fix this?
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
You can do a Hard Reset to take your phone back to factory settings. This will restore the original video player.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
I still got the original app as you can still find the 25byte shortcut in the \windows directory.

I like the HD2 app because when you are on wireless yo get TOP notch video quality compared even to the latest youtube app. The youtube app allows you to actually sign in and have access to all content that you would from your desktop but the qality stinks on wifi and I was wondering if there was a way to get more qaulity?
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
Yea yea another GPS thread but not complaining GPS locks perfectly fine but i noticed how much stronger and and accurate signal after putting into flight mode,,

Here is my result

in flight mode that's about 20 seconds and without flight mode about 1 min with cell on.

Also with cell on its not stable it bounces around with google map and with flightmode it locks down right to my exact position.

yea people dont have problems with GPS, i thought i didn't. Its one thing to get quick lock its another how accurate it really is

So yea try flight mode and see how much more accurate and stable signal is. It seems the cell signal interferes with GPS signal

BTW this was done with JI6

Also use GPS tool from market and when running to switch between flightmode just hold power button and switch back and fourth that way. So gps tools stays open and you can see in real time the significant impact it has
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
I think you are right. I did the same test myself a few mins ago. I definitely got a stronger signal faster with flight mode on.
[Vibrant General] biggiep:
Fair enough, but are competing phones affected in the same manner? Why do we Vibrant owners need to put up functionality disadvantages like this? Ridiculous.
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
Yea i tested again driving and with very good GPS signal its not as bad but still noticeable.

In flight mode i was at around 10-15 feet accuracy and when i shut off flight mode it climbed to 25-30 turned it on again and drop back down to 10feet

im wondering if it has to do with the modem, JI6 modem seems to drain battery quicker meaning its probably putting out a stronger signal for better connection and im thinking its interfering with the GPS...but IDK this probably happens with older firmwares also

I never had any issues with my nexus one
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lithicus:
I'm using an I9000M (the Bell Canada version) updated to UGJH2 back before it included the 3 button recovery fix.

The phone is unlocked (using it on fido) and rooted running the One Click Lag Fix and Launcher Pro. I just plugged my phone into Kies and got a notice for both a new firmware and a new version of Kies. Currently waiting for Kies to update.

What I'm wondering is whether it's safe for me with the current setup to upgrade to whatever firmware this is (I wish it would tell me). I'm also wondering what to do to backup my apps/pictures/etc.

Does anyone know which update this is? Is it buggy or is it worth it? I'm currently fairly satisfied with the phone.

Any info is appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stickfinger:
I would wait for the kies update, it should then say which firmware is available for you.

As for backing up your pictures. Kies is a nightmare lol so you would be best setting the phone to Mass Storage (Settings > About Phone > USB ) plug it in (select mount on the taskbar on the phone) and it should show up as a media card. Then just copy things from your phone to your pc

And your Apps, you could install AppBrain(free), register with it and then it will store the list of apps you have on your phone ready to reinstall on any new firmware (just install AppBrain again)

You say you are fairly satisfied with your phone at the moment so maybe it would be best to find out what firmware is offered (on the new Kies) then search XDA for known issues, you might be better sticking as you are until Froyo is finally released.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lithicus:
Thanks stickfinger, I'll do as you suggest, then post here with more info
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lithicus:
Even after the Kies update I'm getting no info about the firmware. I guess if I click "update now" it might tell me but I can't remember whether that gives me a chance to then cancel.

I'll proceed with a backup, then move on from there.

Also, do I need to undo the lag fix before updating? I don't think I need to unroot, but I'm not sure about the rest of it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] abuatwan:
hi everyone,

i just wanna share my experience with my Samsung Galaxy S.

i have finally managed to keep the phone running with "normal phone usage" for more than 1 day :)

it is true that the multimedia features usage was to the minimum but still

2 Days, 16 hours and 43 minutes is an excellent number,

and still i have 15% remaining in the battery!!!

Check the screenshots below.

All what i have done is:

1- installed Voodoo lagfix

project-voodoo.org/download

2- installed Advanced Task Manager (ATM)

getandroidstuff.com/advanced-task-manager-android-download-v50/

And make sure to enable the Auto-End Running Apps features in ATM, i have used the 30 minutes frequency.

i am still unable to believe the difference that i got from this combination.

Voodoo has really fixed the lag issue and apps are running so smooth.

and with ATM installed the battery life has reached unbelievable numbers.

the installation for Voodoo was so easy and no complications, i have just used the update.zip file and it was so fast and easy.

check this yourself and tell me what you got from it.

cheers. :)

EDIT:

i forgot to mention that i am using ADW.Launcher instead of TWLauncher.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
That's nice.

My record with light usage was 4.5 days.

In that particular case, I still had 50% after 3 days but made a lot of calls on day 4 so the battery went down quicker.

Key setting is to switch the phone to 2g when not needing 3g and also turn off the internet connection through the mobile provider and only use WIFI where available.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] freakdahouse:
Very nice usage, but do you have push email active?
