[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
I'm on XP and I show two devices labeled Android ADB Interface. When I go to properties, the location for one of them shows LOCATION 0 and the location for the other shows LOCATION 0 (myTouch 4G).

Which one do I want to uninstall/change drivers for?

Btw my computer detected the device just fine on it's own and adb works but mass storage doesn't. Maybe I should just leave well enough alone? :p
[myTouch 4G Android Development] crx4xharder:
Try the mtp steps first guys. That worked for me. Also, before doing the mtp steps I only had to go to adb interface then select Google Inc then adb interface again. Netbook with win7. Wtf is starter? Lmfao
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Bodey31:
I dont have xp i have windows 7. it took me a couple of tries but i just kept uninstalling and reconnecting the phone so that the devices show again. for the htc driver I pick mass storage just like he said after update driver. For MTP i had to pick android phone and then pick adb usb driver and it worked. I didnt want the mytouch one just sitting there without it working so i searched for a driver for that and picked the htc driver for that.. it all works!! thanks option94
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Just as the title says really, interested to know if any of you have dropped your iPhone4 in favour of the Nexus S and if so are you happy with your choice?

I have a reason for asking this and it's for neither iPhone or Nexus bashing purposes ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhca50:
My brother did. He is loving the NS.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nohcho:
I did. Reasons: tmobile promo data plan 1500 min, unl texts and data for 80.00 month.

Also love android. That being said, I miss media features and games of iOS. Also things I hate about att is the fact that you can't download a file bigger than 10 mb olvia 3g or the fact that youtube quality suck on 3g. And all of that after fork out 30 dollars a month. On t mobile you don't have any of those restrictions and you pay the same.

I decided to vote with my wallet ant give my money to tmobile ans google/ samsung.

Like I said, I really miss ios media features but I'm trying to live without ios. I understand that my reqsoning has more to do with carrier itslef rather than iphone 4, but all those things I mentioned above as a whole made me switch to nexus s and tmobile.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indiekiduk:
One reason I almost did is I really liked the TV tube effect when you press the sleep button. Instead I ported it to the iPhone ;-) Watch here:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robstunner:
I did. Between the plan price and gingerbread I can say I'm totally satisfied.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranxoren:
I switched over from iPhone 4 and Rogers (kinda like ATT even in terms of pricing) to the Nexus S on Mobilicity (40$ unlimited everything plan) but I kinda wish I hadn't now. Main reason is that I used to use FaceTime ALL THE TIME on my iPhone 4 and expected Google to back the Nexus S up with some kinda of video chat but they didnt and Tango is lacking...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
may not be the same thing, but a friend of mine has an iPhone4 and i let him play around with my phone for a lil and he loves it, wishes he could switch
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Thanks all, reason I ask is that I was considering going the other way! IPhone as stock would be a definite no but a jailbroken iPhone is another ball game.

Carrier aside, I'm buying sim free so its the £430 Nexus S I currently have or return and buy the £500 iPhone 4.

Really can't make up my mind!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
why do you need to ask other people to give you an oppinon, im sure you can formulate your own.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Please don't get defensive just because I mentioned I MAY prefer the iPhone 4.

I'm not asking for anyone's opinion on whether I should switch, I'm asking those that HAVE switched (albeit the other way) if they are happy with their decisions.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
Im not getting offended, ive owned iPhones in the past, but what im saying is that, your asking people if they have switched and what reasons, everyone has there own opinion on the devices, why not formulate your own,

there reasons/opinions may not reflect how you feel. Chances are if your debating on switching thats enough of a reason to go and get yourself a iPhone
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsjoncharles:
I did and love it. I was expecting to miss the fluidity of iOS, but Gingerbread has surprised me despite the improvements I knew it had made in this area.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
No, I am asking people if they have switched and if they are happy that they did so, I'm not asking for (or interested in) reasons and I am not asking specifically for opinions of either device.

Most people who have replied to this thread so far have understood my question, thankfully.

The Nexus S is a great device and I have barely touched my laptop in the time I have had it. The iPhone also has its merits and like anything its all swings and roundabouts!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kareeem:
You were going to base your decision of switching based on a small effect :confused:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2842059:
Fascinating. Obviously, you have friends and family with Mac's but you are the first person I've read that uses FT all the time. You came to rely on it that much?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavanman:
I switched from iphone 3g to ns, and am living it.theres nothing major that I could on iphone that I can't do on ns. internationalization support (japanese) ime sucks on android, you have to rely on 3rd party support, but otherwise I'm very happy. love the notifications and tight google integration.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loggerhead87:
I just got the NS as my first smartphone after reading about various devices for a while (and not having a new phone in like 4 years), and so far I'm just stunned by the transition from my old dumbphone. My final choice was between the iPhone and the NS, as I see both as being comparatively high end phones for the two OS's. A buddy of mine has the iPhone 4, which I played around with for a while, but I ultimately went with the NS because the general user experience doesn't feel so controlled. That said, as a smartphone newbie, I think they're both really impressive devices.

Also, my old carrier was ATT, and they were starting to annoy me for various reasons.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justsignbythex:
Didn't ditch the iPhone, but ditched ATT for T-Mobile's more reasonably priced plans.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ll_l_x_l_ll:
thats a very nice. i will buy it if it can do this effect on the lock screen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ll_l_x_l_ll:
first of all. its nice to have people feedback. thats why these forum exists. sure everyone can formulate on his own. we are not stupid. try to get that. and try to understand that its a actually a smart thing to do to ask for people feedback before making your own. thats why its called feedback. maybe you can provide X Y points why you didnt or why you did switch etc. and the user find it valuable information where he agrees with you. dont act like a smart ass who knows everything.

to stay on topic. no i didnt . i had galaxy S and i sold it for iphone 4. simply because i think the ios is more polished device out of the box. with cydia its amazing phone. i play like a 2 hours at least of games on mobile these days so that was a plus for the iphone. plus the device it self as hardware look sexier in my eyes than galaxy S or nexus S " just personal, other people might not agree"

what i miss tho is the bigger screen of android 4 inch compared to 3.5.

also. i am waiting for CES, its in few days. many of the new phones are going to be annouced in that show. it will be intresting to see.

and on the another hand. this month the LG optimus 2x coming out. while i know its an LG device. it also has much superior hardware than nexus S. aka dual core processor. tegra 2 gpu from nvidia and 1080p video recording.

my advise is to you or to anyone who didnt buy the nexus S. is to wait. see whats coming, then decide. the only reason you would want a nexus S is if u want pure google experiance. and to get updates as soon as they come out " even tho this is bull****. nexus 1 was said to be also pure google experiance to get updates as soon google get them out. and yet, they still didnt get 2.3 . i assume the same thing will happen when google partner up with new company for another nexus phone and new OS. and nexus S owners have to wait for the OS to be released on their system much like what the nexus 1 users are doing. "

its nothing but a marketing crap. yay. i got 2.3....1 yay before anyone else... :/ :rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willyalmanzar:
I had all the Iphones collection, but this bad boy nexus s is one crazy ride. I love my nexus s. I doing need to lower the light to save battery, unlike the iphone omg its so lame and that small screen is so cranky. Ns plus honeycomb aka the future.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 651stp:
my co-worker which is probably the #1 rated fan boy of iOS praises my nexus S everyday when i show him something new. He always asks "man, why cant you do that to my phone?!" and i say "bcuz you gotta ****ty phone" LOL
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranxoren:
yeah a lot of my family is based overseas and therefore having FaceTime is a free video chat option which works wonders. Also with a jailbroken iPhone the Wifi-only restriction is gone therefore its accessible anywhere.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranxoren:
Ended up goin back to my iPhone 4 for two reasons : Mobilicity's network ended up being horrible (no reception at work and barely at home) and I missed FaceTime with family as well as all my iPhone accessories that I can now use again. Loved gingerbread tho. Nexus S was also great.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onthecouchagain:
The one thing that Apple dominates over the Nexus S (and Android experience in general) is their keyboard. I'm not saying it's perfect, and I certain don't care for the lack of custom auto-corrections and other features (which are unfortunately also missing from the stock Gingerbread keyboard), but no keyboard as of yet has come to the smoothness, responsiveness, and accuracy of the iPhone. It's the one thing sorely missed. Anyone who has typed extensively on one (or even on an iPod Touch) will understand what I mean. Typing in Android remains one of the few sore spots in my personal Android experience.

Blindtype, anytime you're ready Google.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] big_adventure:
I switched (kind of).

I used a N1 for a long time, then got a good deal and picked up an iPhone 4 (I already had a 3G before, as well as an iPad and an iPod touch). I switched between them for a while, before finally getting sick of using my crappy micro-sim adapter and loving the battery life on the iPhone (going a day with the N1 was tight for me), so I stuck with it.

After about 6 months, I rebelled for 2 reasons and went briefly back to my N1 while waiting for the NS to arrive.

My reasons? I use two services more than any other: chat (mostly Google Talk) and Gmail.

True, you can do email on an iPhone and even Gmail, but the application is atrocious. I mean astoundingly bad. Push, whether the new native Google iPhone push or the EAS offered by the Goog since 2008 simply suck on iOS. If you want a controllable popup notification, you have to buy a third party app and either forward them all of your mail or give them access to your account!

Second, chat. My <insert diety here> is chat unusuable on iOS. First, you have to buy an application. Second, you have to configure their servers to access your google / microsoft / etc. account. None of the apps (BeJive and Trillian are the best known) stay connected like they should and none can run in the background at all, so you need to set up push notifications to get alerted to chets when the application isn't actually open. With both of those services, I would get MAYBE 30% of the notifications I should get. And if I left one of my PCs/Macs logged into Gmail, I would never get a chat. Plus, I like to lie and always be "busy" or "away", but still connected. None of the iClients handle this reliably.

On the flip side, media and games are definitely better on the iPhone 4. But that's OK, I now have an Android phone (my NS) and a ridiculously top of the line iPod (my now-simless iPhone 4).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dingdonghei:
And a pretty hefty gadget budget ;)

I know games on the iPhone are still superior, but I'm thinking (hoping) the playing fields will level out sooner rather than later.

I haven't played around a lot with the iPhone (I'm kindof anti Apple, but that's a whole other discussion), so I'm wondering: whats better with iPhone and media? I'm just curious here, no fan boy flaming necessary.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robstunner:
Only thing I can think of is iTunes integration. As for the games, that's the only thing I personally miss (other than battery life).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewGoldy:

you will indeed as unlocking the phone accesses a different part of the phones system. rooting access another part so will not affect its lock status

Is it possible to change microphone sensitivity via some Android API?

I want to do this to be able to set sensitivity of the microphone when recording. When you record now the microphone tries to compensate for the sound that are silent, that makes (sudden) loud noises go over what the phone can record.

Look at this image:

If you set the microphone to be less sensitive the pink bars would go up, making low sounds unrecordable but higher sounds won't loose it peaks.

I don't care if the phone has to be rooted to do this but I want to be able to set microphone sensitivity via an apk.

I have Froyo on my Epic 4G with Epic Experience 2.0.0.5 instaled and I want to use Wired Tether, as for some reason on Wireless tether, if i have my phone plugged into my computer and wireless tether on... the battery drains faster than it charges and my phone dies... idk what causes this, anyway back on topic. Is there anyway i can use wired tether on froyo at this point? I get kernal issues when i try to use it. Also, im on the DK28 version of froyo.
[Epic 4G General] JOLTnPEST:
you can use easytether or PdaNet
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
This should not be the case..is your phone hot when wireless tethering? if so it may not be charging due to the heat and I suggest placing it on a metal platform..
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
They're trials. Well, pdanet is a 10day trial or something and easytether blocks https websites

Or it might be the other way around lol

But I made a thread like this and basically, simple wired tether isn't available on froyo yet, but it works in 2.1 with some kernals
[Epic 4G General] Unknown Zone:
I bought easytether used it on 2.1 and reinstalled on 2.2 aka dk28 and still works with no issue.

I think it was $10, which is nothing since you have a pretty much a $400 phone 8)

To get access to htts sites you do need the paid version.
[Epic 4G General] DeeODoubleD:
Sigh

I've done many searches on here for help

dk28 no matter what rom drops randomly my easy tether (paid) connection. It did not do this with DI18. I'm happy with the nebula ROM except for this. I know it's a dk28 issue of some sort, because I've seen others complain of this in another thread I cannot now find.

I hope someone can help me fix this without a reload, it is my ONLY issue, but it's a huge issue since my phone is my main internet source.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G General] Art2Fly:
I ended up with the same issue on easytether, so eventually I gave up and had to use wireless tether
[Epic 4G General] fury15:
check your wireless and networks, on my device with dk28 it says tethering, just turn that on and it works, thats how im using it right now... see if that works for you

USB tether easytether pdanet Wireless which is faster?

When I first used PDANET I was getting 5mb down! I get 1mb with easytether...I switched due to driver issues with PDANET. I dont know for sure but maybe there is a limitation on the legacy usb driver easytether uses? Maybe sprint can see and has capped my data? I am using a rooted stock Samsung eb13 2.2 Hmmm...Dunno for sure but think the rom I had it on when it was 5mb was epic experience 1.5 which totally freaked out on me after I installed AVG antivirus and I kept getting popups speed is nice but at a price? Can anyone explain why initially it was 5mb now its not?
[Epic 4G General] logikgr:
I was pulling 4-6mbps/900kbps-1.5mb while in LA through Easytether on 4G. Watched like 7hrs of 720p youtube videos. =D

Hmm weird, yea now I am still getting like a meg down or so, considering going back to the ROm I initially flashed Truely Epic; just want something stable and fast ;) doesnt everyone... yea easy tether drops and now pda net drops as well... would be fine if it was the initial 5mb down but alas I must seek the advise of the xda community for how this can possibly be...I am in the same location where I initially got 5mb down so am perplexed I think it is the spyware in the stock eb so...Hmm... Suggestions appreciated!!! I dropped my cable internet and need more than a meg :(...
