I'm not sure the Clearpad2000 is the problem here, it should be able to handle this (proven by the DroidX keyboard).
[Nexus One General] xzr3b0rnzx:
yes clearpad2000 is the problem i wish i could change it to a better one ........
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
CM most likely won't touch Gingerbread until the source drops, which will probably be another month or so.

In the short term, we can probably look for someone to hack together basically a port of the build that runs in the SDK emulator. It won't run well (most likely), but it should run and at least give you a taste of Gingerbread.

Beyond that, I'd expect OTAs to start dripping out on or around the 16th. Maybe some development / test builds leaked before then that we might get our community hands on.

I'm inclined to side with you on this. The behavior that I'm seeing on my phone with that keyboard isn't the usual cross-axis issue that we all know and loathe.

[Nexus One General] michel-slm:
The UI looks fine to me, and the switch to using black background matches the design decision used by the GNOME project for their new Shell UI too. It more seamlessly matches the screen's bezel and does not distract from the app running in the center -- and if it saves battery life in the process, all the better.

I saw the fix to it was to turn off the signed verification in anon ra, however, the most recent version for the eris

[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
It was not just a gingerbread status bar added. The whole in-call screen is different.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i think its obvious they went with black and green to highlight the super amoled screen with battery savings. black obviously is power efficient on an AMOLED, and the next closest color i think is green for using the least amount of power. seems to me that's what they did.

and of course i'm sure its the same pentile sub pixel layout...
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
I thought red had the lowest power usage / longest half-life. Maybe I made that up.

Whatever their reasons, I'm digging the black and green theme.
[Nexus One General] crzymonkey:
Hey All,

So i thought I would give mt 2cents and get some answers along the way.

So its great to hear that 2.3 is out and caannot wait for the OTA update on the nexus one. from what it looks like it will not come out till December 16th, making the Nexus S the first phone to have Gingerbread?

From what I had seen and been reading so far and maybe the developers may have an input and that Google is not going to do much with the Nexus one, and my guess is that it will not get 3.0.

So first why did Google go with Samsung? We are all thinking it, all they have done is taken the Galxary S and turn it into the Nexus S. We all know that the Nexus One (HTC) is a better phone. (I hope google reads this to know that its a :) and a :( at the same time.

On one hand Google has said that Nexus one is the flagship phone and then move to a new phone (donot get me wrong I will be picking up the Nexus S)

Well will be waiting for the OTA update to 2.3, and hopefully enjoy what everyone, including myself have been waiting for.
[Nexus One General] player911:
It doesn't make sense to me that the Nexus One would be getting the Gingerbread update the same day as the Nexus S drops.

If they want to sell phones, you'd think they would hold off on Gingerbread on the Nexus One for a while. The only thing important really between the Nexus One and Nexus S is the updated Android. Give me 2.3 and I'm fine with my old phone.

While I hope Google isn't a douche about it, I can see Samsung's greedy hands making 2.3 available only for the Nexus S for a while.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
I kinda doubt this is how it will play out. I don't think Sammy gets that much control over the release of the OS that Google has been working on.

I'll be looking for an official OTA rollout starting on the 16th, and probably some leaked development builds floating around a few days prior.
[Nexus One General] crzymonkey:
Well then the update for the Nexus One should have started and not wait till kingdom comes.

I remember reading that the Nexus S is to be the first phone with Gingerbread.
[Nexus One General] masterpfa:
I too preferred Stock Android on all previous builds. This is not a deal breaker for me but I do agree Google could have done better.
[Nexus One General] Rod3:
It is probably going to be the first phone shipped with gingerbread.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
I have seen that the Nexus S will be the first phone to SHIP with Gingerbread, but I haven't seen anything that says it will be the first phone to have Gingerbread.

At any rate, it's already in the wild on a few N1s. We just need a dump from one of those..... :p
[Nexus One General] Frito11:
i'm pretty confident that the nexus one will get 2.3 sooner rather than later simply because it is the current official developer phone. the Nexus S may be replacing it in this respect but if google wants the most developer access to 2.3 so they can fix any issues with their apps and/or make new ones they don't have to wait or pay for a new phone to test on it would be wise to update the nexus one.
[Nexus One General] pupy991:
Actually Google wrote different things on their Nexus S advertisement page and on their Blog.

On their Google Nexus S advertisement page they write: 'Nexus S is the first phone

to run

Gingerbread, the fastest version of Android yet.'.

But on their Google Blog they write: 'Nexus S is the lead device for the Gingerbread/Android 2.3 release; it’s the first Android device

to ship

with the new version of the Android platform.'.

It seems as if even Google is not really sure about when to release the OTA for our N1. ;)
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
I could help provide some direction in that regard if they require it.....
[Nexus One General] BiTXBoi:
I used to think exactly as you do, but then I knew there won't be a 100% feature Google Maps 5 for the Nexus One
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
What does that prove? This is not evidence that Google is not interested in supporting the N1 anymore, all it proves is that the N1 touchscreen sucks. Something that has long been known by everyone here.

[Nexus One General] codesplice:
You don't really want a copy of the SDK build running on your phone. It will be virtually unuseable. No drivers, no hardware acceleration for anything. It will also be exceptionally unstable - and slow.

Either load up the emulator on your computer with the SDK (it's free, and super easy to set up), or just wait until a real build is out.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Same thing happened when Froyo came out, in reality these builds are awful. Good for showing off a little, but not much else. The SDK sucks :D.
[Nexus One General] BiTXBoi:
yeah, you're right, but they could've implemented rotation using the trackball, for instance.

Either way, you must admit it's a 'first', and quite odd taking into account the dev. phone is a Nexus One
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Who says they haven't though?
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Paul O'Brien has ported the gingerbread launcher. It's available in the market, if you want some green (I don't know if anything has changed, other than the colors).
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
It's unfortunate, but I certainly don't think it's any more odd then the fact that the N1 doesn't support NFC tags. There are some things that the phone is just not capable of doing.
[Nexus One General] donutman:
Those aren't even actual roms. They just show off the interface and basic functions are not all there. Why would you want that?
[Nexus One General] hks18psigst:
If it wasn't a rom it wouldn't run.. lol its not official and its built from the sdk but its 100% a rom. I'm not saying I want a sdk build just saying I can't believe it was ported to those phones first..
[Nexus One General] player911:
Well having built roms on Windows Mobile, I can understand why there aren't any roms on our phones.... simply because it is a waste of time.

It is a waste of a lot of time for someone to take the SDK and convert it where it barely runs... when you know that the actual OTA will drop a few days later. It just isn't worth it.
[Nexus One General] brew182:
Brilliant! Haha thanks
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
just because the nexus cant do 3 inputs doesnt mean anything. there will be a redundant way to perform that function. look at pinch to zoom. its not the ONLY way to do it, you can also double tap, or use the icons at the bottom to zoom. i'm positive google will do the same with maps 5 as there's no way they will expect everyone to use 3 fingers to perform a function every single time. most often people will just want to use one finger regular method...they wont force people to use 3 fingers to do an action. so the nexus will be safe.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
they probably went for those phone's with the new gingerbread is because it will be months for those models to even get updated since they aren't dev phones. where the nexus will be getting the 100% working ROM in a week or so. so there's no need wasting time on the nexus when the full thing will be available to them so soon.

but those other models will require manuf to update them, which will take months, so it makes more sense to start on those models now anyway...
[Nexus One General] crzymonkey:
Looks like N1 users will be the last to get anything. So we can say that N1 is know put on the back and say goodbye to N1 :(

yesterday I was watching discovery and they were talking about the NS, and they said that the N1 was not a hit and do you think NS will be.

Well Google never pushed the N1, no ads on tv, all website based and so looks like it hit HTC in a bad way.
[Nexus One General] hks18psigst:
Yeah very true most of those phones will most likely never get an official gingerbread release....

Im stating what most of us are thinking. so
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
No, you're not. You're stating what the whiny minority is thinking.

Our phones didn't become obsolete and forgotten overnight. They will still receive the Gingerbread OTA before any other phones out there - even if the Gingerbread-loaded Nexus S ships first.

Jeebus.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
It didn't hit HTC at all. Developing the N1 actually helped them significantly - look at all the excellent phones that HTC has pushed out since then. Regardless of how much/little money was made on the sale of the N1, the entire Android community benefitted from the device as it spurred manufacturers to pick up the pace.

The N1 was (and is) a huge success for Google and for Android, regardless of what the bean counters say.

[Nexus One General] earlyberd:
Clearly you don't understand the point of these unofficial ROMs.

The only device known to be receiving the 2.3 update any time soon is the Nexus One. It doesn't need a third party to hack together a port, it is getting an official update straight from Google. The other HTC devices, on the other hand, are not guaranteed to get the update, and if prior experience has taught us anything, a few of them probably never will. The developers don't want to take that chance, so that's why they have already started working on unofficial ROMs.

Sure, they might have working ROMs already, but it's a waste of time to try to focus on an unofficial ROM for a device already in the process of receiving the official update, as the official update will likely have better usability and stability anyway. Plus then you might end up with thousands of users that downloaded the unofficial port and find they prefer the features of the official, who then have to go through the arduous process of backing up and wiping the device to prepare for installation of the official ROM. It's just a bad idea to start hacking away when you have no idea how your homebrew imitation will compare to the real thing.

[Nexus One General] :
lol the nexus got the leaked froyo like a month before the official OTA. im actually surprised no one has leaked it yet.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
It wasn't leaked, they were dev builds sent out to testers/bloggers/journos

That's not happening with 2.3 as they'll just send out the NS instead of builds.
[Nexus One General] elmerendeiro:
no, there ARE 2.3 dev builds out there, many have reported that, major apps developers have them
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
Right, the difference is that this time it seems Google has the people they sent dev builds to under NDA. I'm surprised they didn't do that earlier.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
And they're not kicking them out OTA either I suspect.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
It seems like last time around, a lot of the dev builds got pushed to members of the media (and other shmucks who got themselves invited to various Google events and received free phones out of the deal). I'm guessing that this time around, they are actually limiting the dev builds to the dev community, as they really should have done with Froyo.
[Nexus One General] :
yes and those journalists leaked them did they not? there are some journalists that have gotten a nexus one with gingerbread, but they have spl locked or something...

i can attest to this, ive seen it with my own eyes lol
