[Nexus One General] Hollow.Droid:
Try this first, turn off your phone/lock it then using a piece of cloth push the trackball in while rolling it in all directions. Sometimes dust etc will build up on the ball and cause it to become unresponsive.

If this doesn't work you may be able to change the small squarish part which holds the trackball. It's a little fiddly to disassemble your N1 to change this part but from memory it isn't held in place by wires or connectors but rather simply sits in place and should therefore be relatively easy to change.
[Nexus One General] earlyberd:
Get it fixed under the warranty. It's free and requires absolutely no effort on your part. Don't wait, and don't try to fix it yourself.

Whether or not HTC still makes the ATT version of the phone is irrelevant, because all they have to do is replace the trackball assembly, not the radio. The only "risk" you're taking by having HTC repair it is that you'll be without a N1 for a little while. It doesn't matter if there's a chance that they'll send you back a device with more problems, because they are still responsible for getting your device back to 100% working status, and you can hold them to that until they make good on the agreement. If you don't hold them to it, then you're just encouraging bad customer service, which is what leads to those terrible situations you've been hearing about.
[Nexus One General] izmar:
Obviously replace it!

If you have your warranty still, then just get your phone back to it's original recovery and firmware, and wait for your Nexus to get shipped to your door, then just ship it back in the box your new phone came in.

I unlocked my phone using the bootloader before any work arounds came about. Now I have a rooted Nexus with a warranty that will remain intact because the bootloader hasn't been unlocked :)

My experiences with HTC have always been good.

I received a new battery and headset with my replacement because the woman asked if I had any trouble with the accessories or battery. Just for my troubles they also sent me a new back cover. Just bring up "compensation" haha.

But yes, replace it. It's worth it, and the chances of getting an essentially new phone are a lot higher than you getting a piece of **** (which you can replace anyways with a single phone call, so why does it matter?).

Also, on replacing/repairing your phone. You choose which you want. If you want to wait a few weeks for YOUR phone to be fixed, then by all means wait it out. But if you're like me, and can't live without your phone for that long, order a replacement, as they send one to your door without you having to send yours in first.

Edit -

You definitely will get an AT&T one. I did. They are obligated to!
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Replace it! I would be lost without it!!
[Nexus One General] BlindWolf8:
Get the unit repaired so you can keep your custom engraving. (if any) HTC turnaround time is quick and your cell phone provider (I know T-Mobile did) should provide you with a loaner phone if you ask them.

I have successfully connected my Android 2.2 EVO to a Cisco ASA 5520's Remote Access IPSEC VPN many times using VPNC. The problem comes when you actually try and route traffic thru the tunnel. . . Is everything working? eg, DNS lookups via the tunnel?

I'd sure would like to know how you connected to Cisco's ASA via ipsec VPN. In my case DNS would not be critical as making a RDP connection to my servers or workstations via ip address is all I need. Could please share your solution. Assume you are using Group Authentication?

Thanks in advance! :D

ipsec vpn Android 2.2 EVO

Hey thanks for the quick reply. New to this Android stuff - love it though. Just got my EVO about 2 weeks ago. So just to clarify. When you say -" It works with MIUI 11.19 and cm6snap kernel version 8.1", I'm assuming this is a rooted phone with that specific image. So probably won't work with stock EVO right? :confused:
[EVO 4G General] bdawg31:
You are very welcome and thank you for your interest and well thoughtout questions/comments. I have only had my evo about 5 weeks. I found it difficult to use at first, even a a IT administrator for a national hotel chain. Hang in there it will get easier.

Your device must be rooted. Use unrevoked. Dude you must root. If you don't, you are not using the device as t was intended by the designers. I will be glad to walk you through the process
[Galaxy Tab General] JOHNGAETANO:
I currently own a iPad, and a EVO. Last week I picked up a Sprint Galaxy Tab. I really like the android OS compared to IOS, and I like the size of the Tab. But the whole small screen browsing is killing me. I just can't get use to it on the Tab. I have tried all the browsers, but I feel like I am still on my EVO trying to read web sites. Maybe I am missing something, but the browsers just don't render quickly. I'm going to keep messing around with the Tab, but I suspect I am not going to keep it unless browsing improves.
[Galaxy Tab General] mjduke:
Sounds like you should try adjusting the lcd density. Lowering this setting from the stock 240 will shrink things down so you can see more. You'll have to root the device to do so, but if that's your only worry, it's easily dealt with.

You'll find tutorials here for every step of the process and it'll get you on your way to modding too.
[Galaxy Tab General] STi489:
I have an iPad and a samsung vibrant...I'm getting the galaxy tab tonight and a little worried about the browsing viewing size too...As far as the speed you can disable flash and things will speed up.
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
I have a Galaxy S too. To me, there's no comparison between the two when it comes to browsing readability. The 3x larger display (yes, 3 times larger, as well as 3" bigger) combined with the extra resolution makes a HUGE impact on readability.

Bit of a price to be paid in rendering speed due to the extra pixels, but well worth it.

Much as I loved my SGS, I can barely stand to use it for more than voice calls and quick email checks now. I'm ruined from browsing on it.

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab General] quattr0:
I think you already made the decision. If browsing and a bigger screen are the most important things to you then say with the iPad.
[Galaxy Tab General] pentraks:
Yeah, but its ridiculous to carry an ipad away from home....
[Galaxy Tab General] JOHNGAETANO:
That's what I am struggling with. Portability vs browsing. It's not a easy choice.
[Galaxy Tab General] pentraks:
Οn the go browsing shouldn't be that demanding, after all it isn't that bad!! Its far better than a cell phone and big enough to read without getting tired! In addition you are capable download/upload files easily, see flash and almost everything a netbook can do. + hope for future upgrade for even better buttery-smooth browsing... (i guess)
[Galaxy Tab General] JOHNGAETANO:

I know this has been asked before, but can any awesome xda developer can find a way to use your phone as a Bluetooth headset for the PS3? Thank you SO much if you do, a lot of the community could benifit from this and it would be AWESOME if someone could do this. Thanks!
[Android Software Development] zasz:
But then you would have to use 1 hand to hold the phone to your ear?
[Android Software Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:

[Android Software Development] Embrace:
Haha I could use this.

I have 4 phones, 3 of them sit on my desk, I only use one of them. setting one up as a bluetooth "headset" would be awesome, could leave my phone charging and use one of my other ones to talk with.

Would make awesome for multitasking too... of course useless if you have an actual bluetooth headset... Which if you don't go get one, decent ones are like 20 dollars now.

[HD7 General] japerez5000:
Greetings.

Here I bring a question and not a complaint. Someone could tell me how I can synchronize Word documents between my PC and my HD7 without the need for a Share Point server. Is that I have over 250 everyday documents saved on my PC which is always kept up to date between my PC and HD2. I stole my HD2 and acquired a HD7. I can not sync as it did with my HD2 since WMDC does not work with HD7, and the Zune does not give this option. Could anyone tell me how I can stay synchronized without using a ****ing server?

Grateful in advance, Joe of PR.

Saludos.

Aquí traigo una pregunta y no una queja. Alguien me podría decir cómo puedo sincronizar documentos de Word entre mi PC y mi HD7 sin la necesidad de un servidor Share Point. Es que tengo sobre 250 documentos de uso diario guardados en mi PC los cuales mantenía siempre actualizados entre mi PC y mi HD2. Me robaron mi HD2 y adquirí un HD7. No puedo sincronizar como lo hacía con mi HD2 ya que WMDC no funciona con HD7, y el Zune no da esta opción. Alguien podría decirme cómo puedo mantenerme sincronizado sin el uso de un maldito servidor?

Agradecido de antemano, Joe de PR.
[HD7 General] lumpaywk:
As far as i am aware at the moment you only have 3 options none of them that great, first is to use share-point, second is to upload to skydrive then download and the third is to email them to yourself.

This is something i to feel is a pain but there should hopefully be a fix soon esp as MS have said that early 2011 they will also start targeting business users.

One question i have though if anyone knows would be if there is a work around with share-point i.e somewhere you can upload documents and it looks to the phone as share-point but is in fact like an on-line share or a cheaper rip off? I just cant see myself or anyone really forking out for share-point just to move some documents to there phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heroid007:
I updated my N1 from FRG83 to FRG83d manually few days ago and wondering if I can downgrade to FRG83 or even FRF91? There is not much to it than I just like to get the firmware downloaded through OTA. Just curious!

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Back up your apps in Titanium, then flash one of the images from here: http://developer.htc.com/ and you are essentially downgraded!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heroid007:
I have a stock N1, but since 2.2 backs up all my apps and reinstalls, I am not worried much. But will I just be able to download the zip file rename as update.zip and install manually? Also, will I get all the Google services along with the zip file?

Thanks for the response.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Try the FRG33 passimg from shipped-roms.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Download it to the root of your sdcard, rename it to PASSIMG.zip, and install. It will flash all the partitions on your device back to stock. It's a stock image...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heroid007:
It didn't work! :( When I booted to recovery I saw it was loading PASSIMG.zip and it verified but after reboot, it still says FRG83D!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Strange. Which one did you use? Try this one: http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/signed-passion-img-FRG83_0923.zip

Maybe try renaming it as update.zip instead of PASSIMG.zip.

If that doesn't work, I'll give you another suggestion.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heroid007:
Yes, that's the one I used! And please don't get me wrong but I use this phone for my work and is important that I don't screw the phone. Is there a tested solution to downgrade? So I can follow steps without damaging the phone?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Check it's not a zip within a zip

Edit: I can give you a 100% tested (by me) downgrade solution. Unlock the bootloader, download FRF91 from http://developer.htc.com and use fastboot to flash system.img and boot.img
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
You will certainly not damage your phone by doing that, so don't worry. Rename it to update.zip and try again.

Looks like this is yet to be achieved. passimg.zip of FRG33 says main version is older and 'update failed!' error.

Any other leads guys? Mine is a replaced Nexus One and it has FRG83D on it. I want to downgrade and then root. Help much appreciated!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Why do you need to downgrade? Why not keep FRG83D and just root it??

I just replied on another thread. Hope copy pasting it won't bother the mod!

I have a Mac and I and I am at work. I thought an 'all online' version exists already! VISIONary seems to be a good solution for < FRG83D but not 83D. Any other ideas?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Z4root maybe?

[Legend General] lessirey:
I was wondering if there is any way to directly boot legend into clockworkmod without going into ROM manager, like when you get stuck at boot ?
[Legend General] rajasyaitan:
Say what? If I interprate correctly then you want to go to clockworkmod screen because you're stuck at boot, no? If yes then turn on your phone by holding volume down. From there choose recovery and at the big red warning sign press volume up + power button and choose update.zip. That will bring you to clockworkmod.
[Legend General] lessirey:
Well, actually NO ;)

I am indeed swiping from my legend. But I did face the same issue couple of days back. And I figured it out myself about going to recovery and selecting update.zip back then and it worked.

Now I have another question, is clockworkmod recovery only stored in the sdcard (In the update.zip) ?

And loads from that file directly when we select the option to boot into clockworkmod from ROM manager ?

I was under the impression that it is flashed and stored in the device.
[Legend General] Rapier:
There's a simple way of finding this out...take out the sdcard (or replace it with another one) and see if it's booting into clockworkmod recovery
[Legend General] Kwen:
No it's not, it's called fake flash, the default recovery can't be replaced at this time.
[Legend General] lessirey:
Makes perfect sense, thanx for the info.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rex450se:
I am having an issue with my battery and had recently installed a bunch of apps and widgets so not knowing which on was the culprit I deleted them and wanted to just do a factory reset and start over. But I would like to know that I am completely wiping everything and starting as if I bought it new. The problem is that when I do a Factory Reset through the settings menu I still have the same wallpaper, so I know it hasn't been completely wiped. So I go through recovery and wipe the cache and do a factory reset that way and it still has the same wallpaper. How can I completely wipe this thing? This is an unrooted, stock G2 if that makes a difference.

Yes I have searched and came up with nothing new.

[Droid X General] King Shady:
Hey everybody, I'm switching to an iPhone 4 to the Droid X within a matter of weeks now. That being said, I am a VERY experience user of iOS and even got Android on my old iTouch. Every iDevice I have owned has been jailbroken and heavily used. However, I believe it is time to switch to the Droid X. It has a much bigger screen, much more speed, and a more reliable network. Now to the good stuff - I have been following several threads on the Droid X about the "ROMS" . I do love the Vanilla Android look and would definetely want to put that on my upcoming Droid X. Does anyone know of a good instruction guide to get that properly set-up and working for noobies? Thanks to everybody, looking forward to making the big switch!

Welcome aboard. I too dumped my iPhone 4 after six months and now have the Droid X. I cleared some good resale value, and couldn't be happier. If you haven't sold it yet I would suggest checking out www.wennecorp.com, they were easy to deal with and a legit buyer.
[Droid X General] Barkleyfan:
Z4root will get you rooted (free in market) and Rom Manager will get you familiar with roms. You will also need bootstrap recovery to get started flashing. Google it. Steer clear of the leaked 2.2.1 flash for now. There is no full SBF to recover if things go wrong. Once the full SBF is available, it's no big deal.

Use Rom Manager to back up before each and every flash.

This will save you alot of headache.You will always have something stable to go back to if things go bad, unless you upgrade bootloader. Once you upgrade bootloader, old backups are useless. Another reason to stay away from the leak for now.
[Droid X General] King Shady:
thanks for the suggestion bro :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bumperbyrnes:
Hey I have android operating on my HD2 after using Froyo stone Sense 3.2. Everything was working perfectly and syncing with HTC Sync 2 until I downloaded HTC Sync 3.

Now, while it seems to sync ok, I can't actually open HTC sync 3 on my pc. When I open it, it just flashes up with Updating HTC Library and then minimises to the system tray. I can right click on it and select Synchronise but that's it.

I tried downloading it again after uninstalling the previous version. It allowed me to change the options on startup but now is doing the same as before.

Perhaps I have downloaded the wrong version of HTC Sync 3? I downloaded the one for the HTC Desire HD (i thought that was what Froyo stone is based on)

Any help would be appreciated. Alternatively, if anyone has the older version of HTC Sync, I think I would be happy to just go back to using that! I've tried to find a copy online, but no luck. :(
