But I would sell the S4, so it would cost me less than $100 I would think. Where can I get one for $350 or $400 16gb, they all seem marked up to $500

Hey guys, I used to have the nexus one and loved it. Eventually I found I liked the stock rooted roms the best. I currently have the S3 and am very happy with it. There seems to be no issues for me. I was planning to swap for the N4, but I am reading some issues on N4 and would like to get some...

I got an invite to the swype Beta as well! Oh Happy Day

Recently T-mobile changed the cap to 5Gb. If your contract was signed before that date you have a 10 Gb cap, if it was signed after that date you will have a 5Gb cap. I forget the day though. It was only a few months ago.

My N1 is not making any outgoing calls or sending text messages. It is syncing and some other stuff is working though. I was in a call, talking to someone and i heard a beep and the call ended. Now whenever I try to make a call i press send and almost immediately get the beep for call dropped...

Have you changed the app drawer to 4 apps per row? I remember 5 per row being set on cm6, that will make some difference. Yes, launcher Pro has a Froyo dock look. In the settings its called "froyo" I think. It looks pretty good, a little different than ADW.

The G2 has turned out to be a very difficult phone to root. There is only a temporary method last time i checked. If the Mytouch 4G is more easily rooted, I would recommend going with that phone based on your preference for customization.

You can tweak the internal task killer to speed up your phone. It takes some work and testing. This thread has the directions and explanations. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622666 Geo411m's ROM has these tweaks built in and they work really well...

Try this fancy widget. Its exactly like the HTC sense weather and clock. HTC made them take it off the market.

A used G1 off of craigslist or ebay could work. You might be able to find one between $75-$100.

I attached a photo of the HTC calendar widget. I really liked that widget when I had sense, on vanilla I found the "pure grid calendar widget" which also works well. There is a pic of that one posted also.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbMuuA2HjMw Linpack scores are very similar <=34 Quadrant scores, The G2 wins by 5-10% Neocore, The G2 is about twice as fast

This is a secondary application dock that you are seeing. Only there are no apps there so it just looks blank. Slide up on the home icon and the quick launch dock/panel appears, you can then drag an app icon to that area and it will stick to the quick launch dock. This is a good spot to keep a...

There is no Nexus One that works for both 3g networks, although I have seen people mistakenly advertise that theirs does. If you go with the Nexus One (IMHO you should go with the N1) and it is advertised to work on both networks you will want to verify the FCC ID. ATT N1 = FCC ID...

Ok got it. You will have to use ADB via the Android SDK. The same recovery command will work in ADB. Go to command prompt, cd into your sdk tools directory. Run (<adb devices> first to confirm connection) then <adb reboot recovery> This will take you to Aman Ra or Clockwork where you should be...

You can download terminal emulator from the market. type the command "reboot recovery" press enter. Also, you can download an app called Quickboot from the market, it will allow you to choose reboot, reboot recovery, or reboot bootloader. Are you rooted?

What do you mean by hard reset? If you want to reset to factory, you can go to home>menu>settings>privacy>factory data reset If you want to do a full power off, power on cycle, you can let the phone run down to the end of its life and then it will shut itself down (there may be a widget or a...

The search engine for the market is not that great. Try reformatting the way you type ADW launcher, or just search launcher and look through the list. At one time I think it was "ADW.Launcher" but I am not positive.

I was planning on moving to the G2, and even posted an ad for one. Recently though, there have been a few complaints about the phone. The first is that many phones are arriving with lose hinges that do not keep closed when the phone is held at certain angles. The second issue reported has been...

Have you looked in to running parallels. There is program called VM FusionWare which will let you run Windows in an active OSX. I think it's a really good program, although I haven't used any of the competing software. IMO it's a necessary addition to a MBP. (WIN XP SP2 runs great) Screen shot...

There is a widget by Curvefish called autorotate onoff. You could try that, but it may not do any more than the manual disable did.

+1 for this, especially OS framework tweaks. Geo, not to be a pain, but can we get an FRF91 label next to the appropriate links? ...For the stoners, and the noobs

As reported by androidandme.com, It seems as though an agreement has been made for Verizon and Motorola to have the first phone to ship* with Gingerbread (2.5). http://androidandme.com/2010/09/news/motorola-and-verizon-score-gingerbread-exclusive/ As stated above, the wording seems to be first...

This one is good. Best in town is hard to judge, but a lot of people enjoy the battery and stability: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714184 Try blackbar v6.1 or stockbar v6.1. Those are the FRF91 build. I haven't tried the FRG33 but it's probably pretty great as well. The...

When I woke up this morning, gmail had been updated and installed automatically.

I think you can reboot your phone by pressing POWER+VOL DOWN+TRACK BALL at the same time. It sounds like it is the kernel that is causing it, I had Pershoots 2.35 kernel causing reboots, and a hot phone. I went back to the stock 2.32 kernel, because I decided the 115 extra mhz on the processor...

lol at this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714184 Do a nandroid back-up of CM6, and then try out the above ROM. You can always go right back to CM at any time.

androidspin is another one

CM6 has less than stellar battery life. If you check the "help with my battery life" type threads, you will see most of the OP's have CM6 as their ROM. Try another ROM, you will get better results.

If the version is higher than 1.56 it should work. There is 1.61 floating around, 1.71 and newly cracked 2.44. The 1.56 version won't work at all anymore, but maybe some one can correct me on that.

Well, it is definitely slow to load up. I have dolphin set to Desktop UA. The page loads up. I click the flash player on-demand. The flash video box stays black for a little bit, then eventually the play button comes up and a commercial plays first. Then again the black box reappears and then...

I had to switch to Swype 1.61 to get mine back. The newest beta has some internal registration I hear. (There may be something floating around in the Evo Themes and Apps section)

For 3g, T-Mobile USA exclusively uses the AWS 1700/2100 MHz frequency-band, and ATT uses the 850/2100 MHz band, so a special batch of N1's were made for ATT with different hardware. If a friend's ATT sim card picks up a 3G signal, it means you can't pick up T-mobile usa. You said the phone was...

I recommend geo411's Stock frf91. It's most reliable in the clutch.

I am using Dolphin Browser HD and I watch the videos embedded in the page. They work great for me. The Volume buttons are set to scroll initially so you can go to the app settings and change it back so you can adjust volume while watching.

Did you check settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks "use only 2g networks" unchecked. I assume you did since you know the (*#*#4636#*#*) method, but maybe someone else will read this who needs it. If that doesn't work I would test an ATT sim card to clear my curiosity.

@organized fellow, Thanks for the version number :D I remember hearing that all the swype versions have the kill clock built inside, which will eventually go off. I know 1.56 was a really popular download, so hopefully it was something in the source APK. Google, I don't think has any kind of...

I am a fan of "power strip", a great paid app.

From my experience, when I was running CM6 RC1, I was getting about 2 day's battery life with pershoots (pre-720p) 2.35 uv oc kernal. After upgrading to RC2, I no longer got good battery life, and I tried everything I know of with little luck. I decided to try a new ROM and kernel. Now I am...

The procedures for the different handsets kind of blur together in my memory, so just want to check. When you booted into recovery and got the "!" screen with the android did you try holding either the volume up, or volume down key <along with the power button> to bring up the menu?

The other place to check is: settings->applications->running services. See if there is something in there that you don't think should be running. Your display should be using the most battery, so it sounds like something is running automatically.

I was having this happen to me a lot. I moved in to a new place with no cable or internet yet, so my N1 was under extremely heavy use. And when it was warm, it would get both the touch screen problem and the random reboots. I was using pershoots 2.35 Kernal. I went back to the stock kernal and...

This sounds really similar to what was happening to me the first week with my N1. Cell Stand by was my biggest battery killer. A few posts above has it correct. Ironically, by turning off wifi in an attempt to save battery I caused my phone to use the cell antenna which uses more power, and...

The passimg does pretty much what you were asking about. The Nexus One has the code name "Passion", so "pass/img" is the original factory shipping image for the Nexus One. The OTA should then** come to your phone, maybe in a few hours, but maybe not for a while.

/sdcard/TitaniumBackup is the directory.

This happened to me. I think I flashed the gapps for edr79 or something (since its link was once a neighbor to the CM6 link). Either way erase the one you have and search for the frf83 gapps, or frf91 gapps and try the whole process again. Or go with the answer above, that should work either way.

I was in your same position. I got the My Touch 3g 1.2. And it was awesome, but I read somewhere that it was like a mini Nexus One and that made me more curious. I sold the phone soon after, and found a Nexus One, and it really is an incredible device, with an operating system built and tested...

Does Handcent rely on the stock app for info or would it work as a standalone? Anyways, disabling notifications from your messaging app can be confusing the first time. First you'll have to hit menu>more>show all threads. When you are on all the all threads screen you hit menu then preferences...

This happens to me about 50% of the time when changing ROMS. Try going to settings>applications>market> Force stop, then CLEAR DATA & CLEAR CACHE. Then next time you open the market you will get the terms of service again and you should be able to download and install. Hope that works for you...
