[Nexus One General] noShame:
My trackball and powerbutton were driving me crazy so I decided to tear down my n1 and clean it up. Everything went well, they both work fine now but in the process i managed to scratch the led flash chip.

turns out, our leds are not white they are blue and there is some sort of filter painted over the chip that make it white. So now I have a blue led that messes up all photos taken with it on :(

Does anybody know what kind of filter/paint that is on the chip? or where I can get a new replacement part? (tried ebay but there were no led/flash chips for sale)
[Nexus One General] itay1:
You can't "filter out" white from blue. that's nonsense.

Your LED is broken.
[Nexus One General] Meltus:
Its more likely that the scratch you made is causing some light refraction which makes it look blue.

As previously stated, you can't filter white from blue.
[Nexus One General] OutlawPro:
Unlike pigments, white light is made up of quantities of other wavelengths (colors) of light. So, you can't get white from filtering blue. You can get blue by filtering white. You're probably thinking pigments (paint) where you can get white by filtering out other color pigments from the paint.
[Nexus One General] noShame:
The led is not broken and its not nonsense. It was partially scratched (the white stuff on the led) so it was shining part blue part white (you could see it clearly if you put it against a white paper, a square part blue part white). So when i removed the rest of the white stuff, which was very easy to do, the whole led now has a deep blue color.

I am not a moron, if you are so sure try removing the white grease from your led and see if it turns blue..
[Nexus One General] noShame:
i will post a pic of my led chip so you can compare it with the one from ifix teardown of the n1, youll see the white stuff im talking about. dont know what or how, but it makes the blue led white :\
[Nexus One General] Rod3:
Not sure if this is of any help, but I had read somewhere that when our flashes experience "burn-in" (over use... such as flashlight) they turn blue.
[Nexus One General] draugaz:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphor#White_LEDs

So you seem to have managed to schatch that white light emitting coating.

I am not sure how difficult it is to get hold of those white SMD LED's in small quantities. Maybe from some other otherwise broken device from ebay?
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
A frightening number of people have no clue how white LED's work here. Yikes...

OP is 100% accurate. He scratched the coating off his LED that emits the white light, and it is now blue (the original color of the LED).

OP, the only way to repair this is to replace the LED. Sorry man...
[Nexus One General] itay1:
OP is 100% wrong.

The coating emits a whole new range of wavelength which produce the white "color" when combined.

You don't get the white color by filtering out the blue - but rather you transfer energy to a different substance, by shining a blue light onto it. that in turn, produces the white light. It's not a filtering process at all.

And the conclusion is also the same, his LED needs replacing.
[Nexus One General] noShame:
Thanks everybody for your help and thanks draugaz and GldRush98 for clearing that up!

Will look for an replacement led or just live with it (don't use the flash that often anyway).

Cheers all!
[Nexus One General] tech338:
Not to stir the pot, but I don't think the OP is 100% percent wrong. It is a blue LED (that by some method) emits white (or white-ish) light. Maybe he didn't understand the method.

BTW, if it is not a filter, what do they call the process of "transfer[ing] [light ]energy to a different substance" to change the visible spectrum of light from one color to another? What is the correct technical term?
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
Scintillation is the technical term for what is going on in the LED's coating.

That frightens you? Really? I didn't know that a strong background in semiconductors and quantum physics was a requirement for posting here.

Hi Friends

I got a Touch Pro2 from Sweden, I am in Iraq, but it is all in the Swedish language

i changed regional settings to english UK, but it remained swedish, i also downloaded the Hard-SPL but it freezed at 0%, and i downloaded an English ROM but i couldn't install

I want to know if there is a way to hack it a install an english ROM without using the BOX, because i went to market, they said they will use the BOX and it will cost me 25$

this swedish language is really annoying me

please help

thanks in advance
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cmonex:
as for Hard-SPL, you should check the FAQ in second post in thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=550131

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cmonex:
yes try on XP if you can. if still no good, let me know what the error text was.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] beyarfaj2004:

btw i have another question, what programmes do i need to do the hard-spl? hard-spl and wmdc only??? or some others???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
HardSPL on Windows 7 is known to be problematic. When flashing HardSPL on Windows XP, you need ActiveSync on that machine (now WMDC). That is all you need installed on the desktop PC.

I would like a soft touch battery door that I can grip in my hand so my phone wont fly out please no cases just da battery door
[Fascinate Accessories] sageDieu:
That wouldn't work really work on the Fascinate seeing as the battery door is the entire back of the phone, and the sides... that would be almost exactly the same as having a case.

[Fascinate Accessories] dco717:

[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
I have sent Seidio an email about this exact issue. They make a extended battery door with that ruberized feel. It is just like the texture they use on their cases. I asked them if they would make a battery cover for the standard battery and he replied that they would look at developing one. I hope they do.
[Fascinate Accessories] dco717:
That would be cool I would stop having to catch my phone from slipping
[Fascinate Accessories] dco717:
What's the email ill ask too get more people to ask and hope they see the money they can make on just battery doors
[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
Just email here:

Let then let them know that there are many that would purchase that battery door.
[Fascinate Accessories] dco717:
OK I will
[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
O well.... I got a new email from them.

Looks like we need more people to request this. I would seem that it would be VERY easy for them to manufacture this because they have all the tooling already made from all the other products that they already are making.

** PASS THE WORD **

This is the same thing they were saying about making ANYTHING for the fascinate before people started requesting.

Hey guys I don't know if my rep was misinformed or what but I said many users would like a rubberized back for the slim extended battery (same size as ours) and this was what I got.

Thank you for your inquiry at Seidioonline. We are more than happy to assist you with your concern. Unfortunately at this time we are not selling the back door for the extended battery for the Fascinate. We will sell that back door soon but as of the moment we do not have an ETA on when it will be available for purchase separately. We apologize for the inconvenience Your business and continued satisfaction is of great importance to us here at Seidioonline Customer Service, so feel free to contact us at(832) 204-1118 with any questions.

[Fascinate Accessories] Protonus:
just get the OEM kickstand case I made a thread about in this forum. It will give you the grip you're looking for without adding hardly any bulk and it gives you a kickstand to boot...

else, just spray a rubberized coating on your current battery door.
[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
Thanks, but that case adds too much bulk to fit docks that require the device to be 'naked'
[Fascinate Accessories] Holliday:
If they do post a thread in here on it. I would love one a well.
[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
Anyone that really wants one should email them and request that they make it.

The only way they will know if it would be popular is if we write them.

[Fascinate Accessories] larry0071:
I might be interested in that, as mentioned you have peel the phone out of the kickstand case to dock.
[Fascinate Accessories] dco717:
Come on lets get people to email them so we can get it made already
[Fascinate Accessories] jonagpa:
you could make your own dock, follow the link below
[Fascinate Accessories] nunyazz:
I have more than one dock and car mounts. Plus I don't like any added bulk to my phone.

Once you go naked, you never go case...
[Fascinate Accessories] Falcyn:
Until you drop your delicate phone, it breaks, and you realize the minimal added bulk from a case would have saved you a lot of $$$ and time. Also, that's kind of a silly thing to say considering all phones come naked.

<--Used to say he'd never use a case either, but after his tank-like Droid 1's screen inexplicably cracked from a 3-foot fall will never go without one again.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] bryant_16:
As above, so that it can fit to scale of my HTC Desire HD as wallpaper?

Any ideas guys?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] CitizenLee:
When you select an image to use as a wallpaper the phone will let you resize it.

Otherwise best bet is to change it on your PC in something like Photoshop or Gimp. You could also use one of the free online image resizers.

Image size should be 960x800 for best fit ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] bryant_16:
I tried changing to 960x800 but when setting the wallpaper right, it doesn't let me use up the whole picture. Why is it so?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] CitizenLee:
That's because the picture you are trying to use will have a different aspect ratio to the aspect ratio of 960x800 (I can't remember if it's 4:3 or 3:2).

Any resolution (640x480 etc) photo with the same aspect ration can be resized to fit without cropping any of the image. However, when trying to resize an image of a different aspect ratio some of it will get cropped.

In Photoshop, when you resize an image if you uncheck the box that says "Constrain Proportions" you can make the image fit 960x800, although it will look distorted.

[Nook Color General] 1emaNresU:
I had just updated to the newest update, the 1.0.1 update so I decided to use the auto-nooter. I did it and I got my nook to boot up, I followed the instruction up until the part where it location services. I turned them on, but when the android set up was complete it had the option to send me home, or softkeys. I pressed home and was put right back into the nook color home screen. I tried pressing the software buttons, but they didn't do anything. The status bar wasn't letting me go anywhere, it wouldn't even let me go to the menu. I clicked the "n" on the bottom of my nook and and nothing happened. So after a little bit I just decided to turn it off, this was my mistake I think. I thought since I had already been through the Android setup, the one that is on phones, I thought I could. Now Whenever I plug it into a computer or the charger the green "n" comes on but not the yellow one. I guess all I want to know is, is it bricked or not? It looks like a brick to me. Is there anyway to restore it? All help will be appreciated.

TL;DR:

I think I bricked my nook, any help would be nice. :)

***EDIT*****

Nevermind, it turned on after about 8 Hours of just leaving it plugged in. Maybe battery was dead? I had it fully charged though ?:/ anyways, mods feel free to delete or lock.

I wouldn't normally say anything, but since you said you are wanting to work on your English, I'll do some peer editing ;)

Just a couple things:

-practice

- When you do punctuations in English, you add a space after them and before the next word. It makes it easier for others to read and separate your thoughts and ideas.

I'm certainly impressed though, your English at 14 is far better than my Chinese at 21 :p

[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
When you type with punctuations, use a space after the punctuation. A good way to learn this is to use Microsoft Word and see everything that's underlined green and red. Usually it comes with explanation.

That said and done, your written English is alright but from my understanding of Chinese English users, your spoken English will be more useful to get a good first impression. While I do advice reading of English materials from the standard package of magazines and newspapers (Reader's Digest, for one), learning to listen and speak the language will be more difficult. One thing I can suggest is to listen to English news broadcast from either Britain or the USA. Listen to the way they speak, and try to follow their tone. Inflection (the emphasis on which syllable to stress on) is another danger for non-native speakers. On a side note, training in music helps here because you know what to hear for :)

As a multi-linguist, I also caution against the use of translating words directly from one language to another. You will lose the grammatical structure and the nuances of the language when you do that. While it may get you started, the way English speakers speak English and the way non-English speakers speak English is different and almost immediately noticeable.

As someone who has helped a lot of non-English users get proficient with the language, I recommend several tools:

1. Google Translate <- translate major languages as well as the pronunciation.

2. Google Chrome <- highlight word, right-click, search!
