I hear you on Ilomilo, I remembering emailing the devs before launch and asking them whether the app was going to be exclusive to at&t phones only or time exclusive and was told no. Then a few days later their site says its a timed exclusive. I was pretty peed off, he was nice about it and said he didn't know until last minute. Such a lovely game though.

hey everyone

i was wondering, i haven't rooted yet, but eventually will, and i've seen all these guides for restoring Swype once you're rooted and on a custom rom. i was wondering is there a process to store your data as well (the commonly used words and stuff like that that swype has learned over time). i've been looking at these guides and i see nothing about that.

thanks for the info.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] quierotacobell:
I used an app "user dictionary manager" it imports/exports your custom words, saves it to the SD.

Looking for a new phone, i've used WM5, then 6, 6.1, 6.5 - it's always been a fun and intriguing venture, but none have wowed me compared to the stability and ease of the iphone.

Now i'm about to upgrade finally from my Touch pro and all the options seem great (compared to the old WM platform)

I'd like opinions on which OS everyone thinks is the best bet moving forward for say the next couple years. wasn't even considering another WM phone but just looked at WM7 and it's clearly a whole world ahead of 6

Thanks all for humoring me
[General Topics] kloopk:
I have always been a PDA/Smart phone fan started with the palm and moved on to WM phones, and dabbled with symbian too but since having an android phone I havent looked back.

I personally see iPhone as a fashion accessory that HAS to be the lastest one or-else, and a pretty toy, but I cannot comment too much on this as I haven't owned one.

Looking at Wm7 it looks too dumbed down for my liking.

my monies with Android but go with the highest end device you can afford as I got stuck with a HTC Magic (32b) (read too slow and ****e) but playing with the galaxy s I am even more in love with android.

I want the official car dock... simple right?

Problem is that I live in Canada, HTC won't ship it here or to a mailbox on their side of the border. They require a US credit card or whatever. Is there any way to get these from elsewhere?
[Nexus One Accessories] cgjjaf:
Try the usual suspects...

My recommendation is that you try to get it used from either Amazon or Ebay, I don't think that you have any other options.

I don't have the original dock, as my car has integrated bluetooth, but I bought this car mount: Kensington Windshield /Vent Car Mount with Quick-Release Cradle for iPhone/iPod touch. Yes, I know what it says, but it works perfectly with the N1, especially if you have a case and don't want to take your phone out of it every time you get in your car.

As far as a car charger, you need to get this: Motorola Vehicle Power Adapter MicroUSB Rapid Rate Charger, there is no other charger that works better than this, and it is actually very cheap (US$ 5.49). It will actually charge your phone while using navigation, with GPS and bluetooth active, and full screen brightness, that's how good this charger is.

I actually modded the mount so it will hold the cable, I will try to post a picture later on.

I hope that this helps.
[Nexus One Accessories] ninjai117:
I really want the official dock as it has speakers and hookups for 3.5mm so I can listen to music from my phone.

ebay, I tried that. I don't want to pay $200 for a car dock. They are so over priced on there. Amazon.com doesn't ship most of their stuff to canada, however I did find it on there (thanks). I will try purchasing one of these and see what happens.

In the US does HTC have a store you can walk into to buy this dock? I find it doubtful but I'm going on vacation in the US next week, thinking maybe I could pick one up...
[Nexus One Accessories] cgjjaf:
No store...

No, HTC doesn't have stores in the US at all. I know that a few months ago, some T-Mobile stores were carrying some of the N1 accessories, but I think that that is a very long shot. If you are coming here, I would recommend that you order it from HTC and have it express mailed to wherever you will be staying, that should solve your problem. Good luck.
[Nexus One Accessories] ninjai117:
Except for how they don't take Canadian credit cards... :(

I am having the hardest time figuring out how to create a profile for a certain task.

All i want to do is have Wifi turn on when im home. So when i reach a certain GPS location, i want Wifi to automatically be enabled. When enabling Wifi manually, it auto enables Wifi calling so you can see how this would be beneficial. I have no service in my apartment :\

Can someone tell me the steps to creating that type of profile or better yet, send me the profile XML??
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] photoframd:
Use State > Cell-Near function

I have been experimenting with this feature using the Cell Towers. You will need a pair per location - one to turn WIFI on and one to turn WIFI off.

Add a new Profile and select State. Then select Cell Near and click the Scan button to find which Cell Towers are near your current location. Check the Invert button. Add a Task to for WIFI and set to Off.

Duplicate this profile and uncheck Invert and set WIFI to On.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] photoframd:

You can confirm the Cell Tower ID by downloading one of these free Apps:

* NTFS - remaining space

Yes but the drive must be able to be powered by the 101. If the 101 does not push enough power then it will not work. Try a powered hub and see if it works. If it does then the drive needs more power than the 101 can supply.

No way an USB port will power a 3,5" hard drive (1,5 TeraByte isn't 2,5" for sure). It only supports 500mA whereas a desktop hard drive needs several Amperes.

[EVO 4G General] |Jason8|:
Browsing through a bunch of threads reveals a few people mentioning changing their Home Agent on their CDMA phones to improve their data connection. How does it improve it?

- Lower ping times

- A bit higher 3G data speeds

I ran 5 speed tests with the default Home Agent and 5 speed tests with the Home Agent I've set, and I'm consistently seeing about a 20% increase in data speed and ~2/3 shorter ping times. I normally get about 4-500kbps down with 350ms ping times, and now I get about 600kbps down with 120ms ping times. (With 2 bars max coverage in my home, sometimes losing coverage completely)

The Home Agent can be thought of as the default gateway on a home network. It tells the phone which exit node to use when exiting Sprint's network and jumping onto the internet.

By default, the Home Agent is set to 255.255.255.255. This works and gives you a data connection, and figures out the "best" home agent to use, but it's really not ideal since it seems to always go to the Kansas exit node.

You'll need a couple things to change your Home Agent. First is your MSL, which can be found by calling Sprint or using MSL Reader on the market. Second off, you'll need the nearest Home Agent to your current location:

68.28.57.76 Anaheim, CA Area 1
68.28.57.77 San Jose, CA Area 7 (possible DNS config issue, likely Anaheim)

68.28.185.76 Atlanta, GA Area 5
68.28.185.77 Atlanta, GA Area 5
(speedtest.net says in Houston)

68.28.249.76 Atlanta, GA Area 7
68.28.249.77 Atlanta, GA Area 7

68.28.145.76 Chicago, IL Area 4
68.28.145.77 Chicago, IL Area 4

68.28.177.76 Fort Worth, TX Area 7
68.28.177.77 Kansas City, KS Area 5 (possible DNS config issue, likely Ft. Worth)

68.28.81.76 Kansas City, KS Area 2
68.28.81.77 Kansas City, KS Area 2
(could be Omaha)

68.28.89.76 Kansas City, MO Area 2
68.28.89.77 Kansas City, MO Area 2

68.28.121.76 New York, NY Area 3
68.28.121.77 New York, NY Area 3

68.28.113.76 Pennsauken, NJ Area 3
68.28.113.77 Pennsauken, NJ Area 3

68.28.241.76 Relay, MD Area 7
68.28.241.77 Relay, MD Area 7
(speedtest.net says in Florida)

68.28.153.76 Roachdale, IN Area 4
68.28.153.77 Roachdale, IN Area 4

68.28.49.76 San Jose, CA Area 1
68.28.49.77 San Jose, CA Area 1

To change your Home Agent:

1. Root your phone

2. Install MSL Reader

3. Read and write down MSL

4. Open dialer, dial ##3282# (##DATA#)

5. EPST menu opens, select Edit.

6. Enter MSL, hit OK

7. Select "Data Profile"

8. Tap "Primary Home Agent"

9. Type selected IP into boxes, hit OK

10. Tap "Menu", then "Commit Changes"

11. Phone will restart and you should be able to see lower pings and faster data!

Note: This only works on Sense-based ROMs since AOSP roms do not have EPST settings in them that allow tweaking these settings.

Note2: You can edit this if you are not rooted, you just need to con Sprint into giving you your MSL.

Did you try the closest near you? What kind of speeds and latency did you have out of each?
[EVO 4G General] Estimated Prophet:
Thank you! I checked and my primary was 255.255.255.255 and the secondary was the home agent it should be using. I've noticed that google will usually think my phone is in Chicago, so I'm guessing when left to decide on it's own it always chose the chicago home agent and not the one an hour away from here. I swapped the primary and secondary home agents and downstream went from ~600kbps to ~1300kbps. I tested both configs three times each and those are the rough averages.
[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
On stock was pulling 2000 down with ping of around 220 and uploads where around 650. After changing to the Forth Worth one and the one stated as being Houston (where I live) couldn't get above 1300 down with ping around 290. Primary Home Agent was the 255 while the secondary was Fort Worth as stock. Ran all the tests off the Austin server which has consistently shown to be the best one near my location. Now I didn't change my secondary home agent when testing different primary home agent. Not sure if that should matter but I wouldn't think so.
[EVO 4G General] EVOlvedAndroid:
what would you choose for la
[EVO 4G General] Visionikz03:
Can this change be implemented on sense roms, committed to memory then nandroid back to aosp? From my understanding these sort of settings (prl, slot index etc.) r not affected by a rom flash nd settings should keep but just r not conveniently editable in aosp. Correct me if im wrong.
[EVO 4G General] |Jason8|:
That's the theory behind it. It would take someone setting it on a Sense ROM, flashing to AOSP, then flashing back to Sense to verify all stayed the same. I'm not quite sure where it's saved, but I'm definitely going to assume it's stored in the same place the PRL is.
[EVO 4G General] Android 17:
Interesting thread. I live in Tallahassee, Florida, do you think it would still serve me to change mine to Atlanta, GA, since that would still be a good bit closer than Kansas?

I'm always looking to increase my 3G speeds, since I seem to average around -90 to -100 DB's in my area, definitely serviceable, but still a bit slow.

Of course, it should be easy to revert back to the 255 home agent using the same method if it proves problematic, correct?

Also, what's the best method to use for speed tests? I know the speedtest.net app can be a bit inconsistent.

Sorry for all the questions, thanks! :)

For what it's worth, my default "Secondary" is 68.28.241.76 and I am in Ocala, Florida. We don't have 4G yet, so these are all 3G numbers.

With using 255.255.255.255 or 68.28.241.76 as my "Primary", I get the same results. I will probably try some of the other HAs (Atlanta and the other 68.28.241 for starters).

Using Speedtest.net for Android (Macclenny, FL and Tampa, FL with same results), I get ~600kbps both directions. I am an average of 412ms for pings as well.

I tried the DSL Reports Mobile Speed Test and got an average of ~675kbps (Lows in 400, Highs in 900).

I have read reports (and reports are very anecdotal) saying that others' 3G speeds are averaging in the 1000kbps range. Anyone, particularly in Florida, having that sort of luck?

[EVO 4G General] Nrre:
wonders if anyone realizes that 255.255.255.255 is simply a broadcast.

my understanding is that your phone will broadcast out to every home agent, and pick the best one from the replies/list.

by setting your primary to a close one it will automatically use that, unless it is done it will goto the secondary one.

your saving yourself a bit of time this way.

may give it a go later.
[EVO 4G General] Android 17:
I did this as well, and I don't think it made a huge difference, but I seem to be getting at least 50 kb or so higher download than my speed tests without it, so personally, while it's not a huge boost, it's still welcome.
