[Nexus S General] nxt:
Soo, what's the big deal anyways? Doesn't affect the phone in any way. It doesn't look like it's "coming off" or loose. Doesn't feel "flat". Can't tell unless you look at it in proper light.
[Nexus S General] going_home:
Got the same thing on mine too.

:o
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
Yeah, my buddy told me I'm being an anal f####r!
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
this is kinda look bad. its like the it curve went extreme a little more than it should in the factory.

check other phones. if not the same, exchange
[Nexus S General] hansmrtn:
Have you guys noticed that's where the proxy and ffc are? Having a curved spot there could really mess with some lighting
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
I have, which might mean that it is flat in this area on purpose.

If every device has this flat spot it would certainly point in this direction.

Hopefully we'll hear from more nexus s owners to see if this is on every device.
[Nexus S General] android_geoff:
i looked on mine and its there too. must be the way it was designed
[Nexus S General] Bmerz:
I have it too, but it's so subtle - that had it not been for this thread, I'd probably never noticed it. I am thinking it's part of the phone design - maybe we'll get confirmation from Samsung, that it's supposed to be like this.
[Nexus S General] Jayrod1980:
My first nexus s had that as well. It also had an additional crease vertically down the middle and the LCD actually had a ring shaped watermark that was visible in low light and solid colored backgrounds. Was almost impossible to exchange because bb didn't know how to since the they didn't do tmo activations, but when I finally got my exchange I got one without that crease
[Nexus S General] bcl0328:
checked mine under my light and could not see this at all
[Nexus S General] dinan:
Mine has this as well, hard to notice unless you use a glare. When I got mine in store I exchanged it immediately as the 1st one had some dust under the screen, and that one had the wavy glass as well. I'm pretty sure all of them have it to some extent. The MT4G has "wavy" glass too, so I think it's safe to assume it's not Gorilla Glass (as the MT4G has also been confirmed not to have it).

Anyway, it's livable, and only seen under extreme circumstances. Loving the phone regardless =)
[Nexus S General] Lakewell:
I have this on mine as well, didn't notice it until I clicked on your thread. Thanks a lot :)
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
This isn't normal. I have it too.
[Nexus S General] selectormoldy:
I see it on mine too. The other thing I've noticed is that my FFC produces a somewhat "bent" or fun-house mirror effect depending on what angle I hold the phone at. I think it's due to the curved glass.
[Nexus S General] sinatosk:
I have it aswell... not as bad as the picture posted here... it also looks like I have another one not from far under it... very lightly though
[Nexus S General] DarkAgent:
I'm pretty sure it is part of the design. Every phone I have seen has it - check out the videos on Youtube.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Can't see anything like this on mine and being fussy I'm ptretty sure I'd be one of the first to notice it.
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
It's NOT on all of these, the demo unit at my local BBY had a perfect glass panel.
[Nexus S General] varungandhi:
i dont have that on my nexus s. exchange it.
[Nexus S General] Mujja:
Looked are mine from all angles under a bright light and no flat spots.
[Nexus S General] tintingkc:
Have it on my second phone as well. Not as bad as the first but now I get a terrible yellow tint to the screen when its dim. Has to be all the way up for proper color. Really trying to like this phone!:confused:
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
That's another of the common problems reported. I'd not be happy with that and would have to opt for either a refund or another swap.
[Nexus S General] chaval:
EDIT:Wrong thread.....
[Nexus S General] milkham:
just looked at mine, i don't see this
[Nexus S General] krumb:
based on your posts, your expectations for this phone are unobtainable. you'll never be satisfied. take the phone back, get another phone, and save us from your unrealistic expectations.

:rolleyes:

insane how many nitpicking "uh, the screen is slightly up by .001 mm on the left front 2/3 of the back of the side, when tilting it to the right under uv light" time-wasting posts are being made.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donthewadd:
Im sorry if this has been covered somewhere on here, but im at work and this is just faster. In adw launcher I accidentally replaced the app drawer shortcut at the bottom and now I can't find a way to get it back. Any help? Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Texas Spectre:
1. long press on desktop.

2. custom shortcut

3. pick activity launcher actions

4. choose open/close app drawer

(you can also give it a custom icon now)

5. drag the icon back to where you want it
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donthewadd:
Thank you very much sir.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Texas Spectre:
No problem. I did the same thing.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] zerozed99:
I've got a bunch of launchers loaded on my EVO, but my favorite ones for the G-Tab are ADW.launcher and ZEAM (XDA developed launcher).

I like both of them because they're snappy and offer a high degree of customization (e.g. being able to specify the number of columns and rows for both the workspace and the apps).

ADW.launcher seems a bit more customizable since it supports themes, but Zeam is nice because it gives you an app bar on the workspace that you can load up to 8 quick apps.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] roebeet:
I still have a soft spot for Launcher Pro. I know that ADW has themes, but LP is fast and does what I need it to do. I have not found a reason to change, yet.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] birchs:
+1 for launcher pro. I liked the themes on ADW but I like the customizable buttons, configurable columns and rows and the widgets with LP.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] popezaphod:
Perchance I will try Zeam at some point, but in general I am happy with Launcher Pro.

-=Sent from my ViewSonic G Tablet (VEGAn) using Tapatalk=-
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] oncouch1:
zeam cause its lightweight.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] RojasTKD:
Launcher Pro here too.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] P0RT3R:
I'm still playing with Sweeter Home. I like to completely customize the screen layouts. It isn't flawless in operation, but it does provide me lots of time to fidget.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tcrews:
LauncherPro. I like the features and being able to save/load my screen layout/setup is fantastic after flashing ROMs and reinstalling apps.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] mmracing:
I prefer GDE but can't get it to work properly (menu's pop up flaky) on the GTab so I'm using LauncherPro.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rayden25:
Launcher pro. Light weight and fast.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] elitepsycho:
Allways been a fan of launcher pro on my android devices it just works how i like
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rushless:
Do any of the themes allow more than sixteen icons per page? There is a LOT of space that more icons could go in.

Is this one of those "phone & portrait" os design constraints?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] gotwillk:
i'm an ADW fan on my Droid 1 and i tried it on my gtab but i found zeam to be better. its faster and smoother, more lightweight, and actually resizes wallpaper properly. i love adw's themes but i rather go with speed than with custom icons. also love zeam's dock, has tons of space for icons. only thing i don't like about it is that you can't save your configuration.

launcher pro i never liked. probably cuz i can get most of that stuff for free on other launchers. gotta pay to resize a widget? cmon now. also live wallpaper is really sluggish for some reason on launcher pro. keeps stuttering when i turn on the screen, no matter what live wallpaper i try.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rickyt63:
Same here. Zeam Launcher + MultiPicture Livewallpaper.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ksporry:
thats really cool! The light effects of that background are live?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Nowee2009:
I like gde but no icons with all the the themes. But... +10 on launcher pro
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] artesuave:
Iam I weird for not running a launcher? I always feel like they slow the system down a bit. I might have to start because all these cool looking home screens are making me jealous!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Canz:
Launcher Pro... but I think I might try zeam after reading this thread.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] BigJohn89:
I prefer Tap n' Tap for my launcher... OK, who am I kidding :D

Actually, I use Launcher Pro as well, but I also noticed the live wallpaper stuttering and always thought it was because every app seemed to want to reload itself upon wakeup. However, with all of the love out here for Zeam, I'm going to have to give that a try as well!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ksporry:
has anyone tried the go-launcher?

SInce there are several launchers around I'm curious what the pro's and con's are for each... I think tis thread is going a long way to that. Maybe once we managed to get all the info together we could start making a sticky with pros/cons for each launcher...

Just a thought
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rushless:
Like Launcher Pro. Able to add more icons per column & row now :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctinsley:
I have been using the new sense roms ever since incdoes made his first port of the desire HD. I know that after a while he abandoned his HD Rom in favor of the Z because it "felt" better. The odd thing is that I completely disagree. The HD port makes the inc feel larger due to the smaller font on our 3.7" screen. I've also noticed that HTC provides more widgets for the HD, even more skins. It just seems odd that none of the new devs making new sense roms have looked at the latest HD ports.

Is there any devs out there willing to build an HD Rom? I'm sure I can't be the only one who would like this as an option.

Devs please don't take this post the wrong way I really appreciate all the hard work you guys do I just wanted to hopefully generate enough interest in this that someone would be willing to pick this up.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
You should be able to. I was always able to backup and recover every ROM I ever installed, as long as some version of the same ROM is installed.

In short, if you install a different ROM after u take backup, please install the original version of the ROM, and then restore from backup.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
So don't know if the question is as clear as it should be, but I just wanted to know if there was a way to get a list of all the base builds of Android we can put on our HD2's.

From what I know, we have an

Evo base,

Desire base,

HD Desire base,

Stock Android Rom from the Nexus 1,

Streak base,

Glacier (MyTouch4G) and

Cyanogen base. Not sure if there are others but I just wanted to confirm what the builds are based on. Did I miss one? Should one go into another category?

If anyone can help or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
No one has any ideas?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadmansink:
Search. On the upper right corner it asks "find your device" enter your device and start looking.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
You must not understand the question. Thanks for trying to help though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Seems like a complete list to me, if you add MIUI to it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
Thanks! I appreciate it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
No problem.

There's a few others, like Defrost and Ultimatedroid, but they are both strongly based on Cyanogen base (sounds weird), so they're not really worth mentioning.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
Are any of those on this forum? I may have seen the Ultimatedroid, but I've never used it and I've never heard of Defrost.

Reason why I'm asking is we get so many questions from people new to the site and I was hoping to compile a list of the current ROMS we can put on our HD2s from this site and what they were based off of and whats working for everyone. I haven't seen that yet even though I'm still looking.

Thanks for the info.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadmansink:
I understood completely, that's why I said what I said. If you want to start a completely new thread with a complete list of ROMS then it would have to go into the HD2 forums, but if you were going to list Android Builds then you are in the right place. Once you go into Android Builds within the HD2 forums then there you go. But, it sounds like you want recommendations and are waiting on those to compile a list. I would start the thread, ask for input and then update your list.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
No you either didn't understand his question, or are just replying completely irrelevant. He's compiling a list of bases, not builds, which you seem to be referring to. Big difference, and compiling a list of bases isn't just going through the topics list.

@TS: First of all, when speaking of Android we call it builds here, because we run it from SD card. ROMs refer to WinMo. Just a small detail.

Both Ultimatedroid and Defrost have been used in JDMS. Version 1.1 (I believe) had CM, 1.5 was Defrost and 1.6 now has Ultimatedroid.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hypercore:
Hey guys, I have the option to trade my X10 (and $100) for an HTC Desire. My X10 and his Desire are in perfect condition.

Is this worth it? I thought there'd be nobody better to ask then the guys in the Desire forum :P

Also, quick answers would be appreciated. Could be trading in as little as 3 hours.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
i would say that you make the trade. gsm i suppose. desire has alot of commited devs that work on it. and also is alot sexier than X10.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakai4eva:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _L_:
I would say hold on to your x10, its goinng to get updated soon and will have multi touch as well..

I have used both x10 and desire, and couple of months back i would have said to get desire, but now i would not recommend you to trade it. Just hold on to it and i am sure you will be glad.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radu_wizu:
Exactly, just wait for the 2.2 update you will be getting on the X10 while we get our 2.3 update and enjoy the multitouch we already have. I was and party still am a Sony Ericsson fan but let's admit it,they just suck at updating their devices.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _L_:
actually its not yet confirmed that desire will get 2.3 you know.. and its not a huge improvement from 2.2 to 2.3, but i am still waiting for it. hope htc releases it!

And i am really dissapointed in desire's multi touch, its only good for pinch and zoom.
[Fascinate General] Powell730:
Anyone else feel like the games that are available for the Android system overall are nothing more than just non-smartphone games? As I look through the available games I haven't really seen one that is any better than what I used to be able to get for my regular old flip phone 5 years ago.. My buddy has an Iphone and he has games like Madden '11 and similar games that have pretty decent graphics and good game play.. why aren't we seeing this for the android system?

*I am aware that with the newest Droid X update they released Madden '11, but why not for all phones?
[Fascinate General] jpcdeux:
Some phones can't handle the graphics
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
How long was the iPhone out before games were available? Probably close to a year until good games came along? While android has been out for a while, it wasn't really mainstream until the original Droid was released on VZW, which is just over a year ago. Good games are starting to show up, but the quantity isn't so great right now. I'd say give it another 3-6 months and more games will start showing up. Gingerbread should further improve this with the added game controls in the OS.

[Fascinate General] BartJJ:
i agree with you completely compared to iOS the games on android haven't caught up yet but personally i believe this is a small price to pay for having an open source ecosystem. This is why I like android phones more than the iphone itself but i do not condemn the people that get them as android may not be their cup of tea (i personally recommend android phones to my friends that are techie or at least somewhat fluent in using a regular computer while anyone that would be lost in setting menus looking for a way to change their ringtone for calls get an iphone as it is more like a regular dumbphone in that sense). Also, I recommend if you just want something to play games on and use on the go like your phone and around the house get an ipad or ipod touch and just use them for playing games (and some light web browsing maybe if you get the ipad and want a larger screen) and your android phone for everything else. Thats what i am personally doing and plan on doing it until android gets a solid gaming platform (crosses fingers for great games on honeycomb!)
[Fascinate General] HorsexD:
G1 came out late October of 2008 right? 2 years? IPhone came out on Late Jun 2007. Although just by a year Iphone did have a head start. Better games are starting to come out for the top of the line android phones. give it some time. Gameloft has some pretty good games. Pocket legends isnt that bad eather.

[Fascinate General] Tkun:
This is one of the main things that has annoyed me about Android, coming from an iPod Touch to a Samsung Fascinate. Its games selection is pretty small and not very good, especially compared to the iPhone and even Windows Phone 7 to some extent. But since Gingerbread is optimized for gaming, I'm thinking 2011 will be the year for Android gaming. :rolleyes: Right now though, developers are going googoo gaga over the iPhone platform and seem to not even acknowledge Android's existence. :(
[Fascinate General] Powell730:
Problem with this is will us samsung fascinate users even see gingerbread? at this rate there is no way!
[Fascinate General] CNemo7539:
Android will up the game next year, because platform will get dual cores. Tegra2 looks quite cool right now. It is same as Droid came first with high res, and then Apple followed the suite.

I wonder what Apple has to answer to this? They do not actually produce any parts themselves. And their greed will not allow them to compete in cheaper segments. So, they market share will be reduced, and as such platform appeal.

No matter what Android will level up with iPhone, if not beat it.
[Fascinate General] Tkun:
We'll have Gingerbread by the time Android is a competitor in the mobile game market. ;)

Ahahahaha nice jokes man.

Now to be honest same game runs better on ios than android, regardless of the hardware specs.

Check out Infinity Blade. its the newest rpg for ios using Unreal Engine.

[Fascinate General] devistator18:
Same here, sims 3 is eh, but need for speed it pretty good and runs awesome on our phones.
[Fascinate General] Zacisblack:
The entire reason games are not up to par with iOS is because of the size limit of apps on the market. This was just recently increased from 25Mb to 50Mb with the new android market. If you look at games on the app store you will notice some can take up a coupe hundred Megabytes. This allows for more development of games on iOS while android is being limited on the graphical quality and length of most games.
