[Nexus S General] qipengart:
What about screen protectors to fight fingerprints?
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Samsung's software has definitely been lacking (still waiting on Froyo for my Fascinate while Gingerbread is about out you jerks!). But seeing as this is the Nexus, I think Google will be handling the software side of things this time around.
[Nexus S General] Product F(RED):
And that's the only reason I'd consider buying it (although I'm in contract so I won't). I'm glad google made the UI dark. Makes it easier for me to migrate from Sense to stock.
[Nexus S General] Capt-CDD:
I agree with both of you. Dual core and OS will have to be optimized to be of any real value.

And I feel in fact these phones have become PCs in many ways.

All I'm saying is, that is the kind of improvement it will take to motivate me to purchase a new phone. Banana shapes just don't excite me!
[Nexus S General] D_Rob:
I agree with the OP. Lets not forget that the haptic feedback of the Galaxy S line is far superior to HTC's. Overall better vibration, and not only great sound quality but better sound volume. I think they made the right decision to go with Sammy, there are a few things I would have liked to have seen, but overall it's going to be a win.

The fit and finish of the device is excellent. As far as dual core goes, people would just ***** about the battery life because we still don't have adequate battery life for doing anything that would utilize dual core. It is, a phone primarily after all.
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
Dual core actually saves on battery life because it executes the processes faster giving it more sleep time. Not to mention the dual cores will use newer technology with plenty of voltage optimizations so you can generally expect better battery life from a dual core version of the same ULV processor. Look at netbooks for instance. The original Atom could get 3-5 hours of battery life depending on the battery but the dual cores are getting 7+ and being even slimmer machines. Take the Macbook Air for example.

This of course also requires that the OS is optimized to take advantage of the dual core.
[Nexus S General] DJTaurus:
I wonder if the file system is rfs like Galaxy S with tha lag problems or ext....?
[Nexus S General] ikon8:
They've already said it uses ext4 so it should really fly.
[Nexus S General] BlackOtaku:
Agreed. Personally, at best HTC phones make me go 'Meh', and at worst 'Ew.', the exception being the Evo which had a design I was fond of. I was just never that fond of HTC's designs. I think Samsung phones look nicer, but IMO Motorola has the best designs and materials in their Droid line phones and the Motoroi. (Too bad they've consistently made decisions that mean I'll never buy from them again...)

Of course, this is just my opinion.
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
It's funny how differentiating people are about phones... But that's what makes Android cool. I don't think HTC phones are terribly ugly, except for a few *cough*mytouch4g*cough*.

And I like the Galaxy S phones except the Captivate has a .... Different kind of look.

As for Motorola, I like the design of the Droid 2 but I hated the original Milestone and I think the Droid X is probably the ugliest phone after the MyTouch 4G. But many, many think differently. Thank god we don't all have to conform to one man's design :p. I also am turned off by the LG Star. But I thought the LG Ally was okay.

As for the Nexus S I think it's the most gorgeous phone out. Dunno why but it makes me feel like my Vibrant is old news :P

[Android Software Development] ilendemli:
Hello and sry for my bad Englisch at the beginning.

So my Question ist: Is there any Automaticly Proxy changer, to set up the settings?

If not, then it would be time to create a usefull app.

My Idea is, for example:

You are Connecting you with the internet (wlan) and you have access to the internet at home (without proxy setting), you are going in to school and you must set up the proxysettings. My Idea is, to create an app, that runs in the background, and reads the connectivity status, if for example the phone is connectet to the router xyz, it should automaticly change the proxy settings, if you are at home, and you are connecting to another router, the settings gets resettet.

Is there any app, that can do that?

Or can someone here programm a little useful app for the peoples.

Kind regards
[Android Software Development] supermamie:
Last time I tried to do something like this, it needed some system protected authorization, I didn't checked again.

Since there is now a UI for that, it may be possible...
[Android Software Development] ilendemli:
Hmm, it should look something like that:

Main (where The Network list is):

img827.imageshack.us/img827/9176/mainfk.png

And the Config Menu (apeears when you select a Network):

img703.imageshack.us/img703/9008/setr.png

The Settings should be saves in an ini file on the sd card.

I am not a good Programmer, and i need help from pros

[Hero CDMA General] YoshioDuo:
It's a long story but hopefully worth reading. I was not able to find ANY information about this whole deal so I just went and did it and now I'm posting my results. If you have an HTC hero and are still loving it you'll want to read this!

Here is my writeup.

Actually even if you want to upgrade to the Evo you should still read this because for the same price, you can get the Evo from craigslist for the same price AFTER MiR!

So long I didn't want to re-post it here taking up a whole page worth of posts haha.
[Hero CDMA General] killabee44:
Interesting idea... Im in the market for a notebook in January & will check that out. Thanks for the info. Good post.
[Hero CDMA General] damiandarkwater:
Pretty freaking sweat! Nice find (:
[Hero CDMA General] YoshioDuo:
No Problem. Just as a follow up: Quick review. I'll post a more in-depth review on my blog tonight.

The laptop with it's shipped-2GB of memory is quite powerful. I've already done some multitasking and the machine had a few hiccups but those are obviously memory related... the processor was fine. Then I tried a few games out on it, mostly the high end flash games and Minecraft - all worked really well although Minecraft had to sacrifice a lot of draw distance. The video card in this Dell is made primarily for video decoding. I played 720P video through the HDMI port on my tv very nicely. Did some HD streaming from Netflix as well. I read that 1080P video works well depending on the format. There is also another video player that works better then VLC for this device... but I cant remember what they said it was. A Little research should bring it up.

Once I slap 8GB of memory into this thing (probably will be here before xmas!) then it will be flying!

[Hero CDMA General] riggsandroid:
Guys in response to getting an EVO 4g same price on ebay as you would from sprint:

A tip:

Don't buy phones directly from Sprint - they are ridiculously overpriced.

Check wirefly.com (along with cashback sites) and/or Amazonwireless.com

As of now, Amazonwireless.com doesn't allow upgrades but says its coming soon.

The prices at these retailers are so much lower then Sprint and don't require MIR.

Hope that helps some people save $$.
[Hero CDMA General] acedickson:
Radioshack wireless is always a good spot to check too. EVO is $99 new or 2 year upgrade, if eligible, right now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsbar 1:
Hi, I need some help. I have searched the forum for a answer before posting my question. Either I missed the signifigance of a response or couldn't find a answer.

Either way I do appologise is if my question is a repeat.

I utilised the FRUU utility the other day and seem to have only partially formated my internal drive and haven't installed a ne ROM.

Holding down both keys with RESET gets me into a reset option with a reload at the end which doesnt work because I dont have a installed rom. I have tried to enter the bootloader with limited success: Manufacturer Reset seems to be the only option that I can enter.

Holding down both Keys down or up just load into the loading screen. The bootloader screen appears for 2seconds before changing into the loading screen. To my knowledge I do have HSPL installed.

Any help would be appreciated as I really miss my Angel (HD2) and would really like to get her working again.

Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
that means youhave a rom on your sd card. get rid of it. boot into bootlaoder, connect usb, run customruu on the PC.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsbar 1:
Hi

Thanks for the comments.

What is baffling me, is that with or without SD card inserted I can't enter the bootloader.

Any advise?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
if you can't get into bootloader, how were you getting the loading screen after?

jfi, bootloader is vol down, keep down, tap and release power, keep vol down.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsbar 1:
thanks for your time.

Sorry the loading screen is black with white letters (loading) being shown.

the black screen doesnt reflect any HTC logos, what it does reflect is 2 images/icons in the bottom right corner from previous 2 winmo versions installed.

the volume down key hold unfortunately doesn't take me to the bootloader. It takes me no where.

The only time I can even see the tri colour bootloader screen is when I select both volume keys with a reset. it reflects for 2 seconds before moving on to the manufacturers reset option white screen with blue writing.

I have repeatedly done the above to be able to confirm the at HSPL 3 is still reflected.

What is baffling me is that I cant find out what I did or where i stand. I have not found a similar representation of my problem. This has made it impossible to find a working solution.

Thanks again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
oh that type of loading screen. that's a splashscreen, means nothing, its an image left over from an old rom, nothing more.

unless you can enter bootloader you are screwed.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drummer7z7:
I recently bricked my phone beyond my capabilities of fixing it and have talked to verizon about sending it in for replacement (I'm under 1 year warrantee). I just told them the phone wont boot past the android skateboad splash screen. The problem is, the flashboot logo is in the top left. What happens when they get my phone back and try to boot up and see that?

Any advise?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoubleByte:
In theory, they could charge you for the full retail price of the replacement. I'm not saying they would, just that they could. I just recently got a replacement, but mine had a bad trackball...almost couldn't flash it back to stock! But I also had insurance on the phone, so if I couldn't flash it back, it would have fallen off a boat while I was fishing! :)

It's an Eris...I'm not sure that they would care anymore.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skipbarker:
I've heard mixed results on this. At this point I doubt they would care all that much but you never know.

Best of luck to you.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truelove79:

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalladubb:
I figured this would be the relevant thread for this question.

I'm getting the trackball issue, I got this phone earlier this year just before they retired it, but opted out of the extended warranty. Will they replace the phone or am I screwed? Should I take it into the Verizon corporate store, call, or do nothing and just deal with the issue?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It should still have a one year warranty so SOMEONE should have to replace it.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mech_egr:
Call verizon at 611 and act irritated, tell them you know the trackball is a common issue and don't want another since you know it will break when out of warentee. DO be very polite to the service rep. With luck they will offer you an early upgrade to an Incredible... which costs 250-100 rebate - 132 trade in value for eris (a separate thing) = nearly free incredible. Worked for me.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalladubb:
I don't have the money for the upgrade off hand, maybe I can talk them into just doing it for free to keep me from going to ATT. I doubt it, I probably get a refurb Eris.
