I would like to sync Google account contacts and calendar events. I am aware of the way of doing it using Corporate/Exchange sync. However this method only syncs My Contacts, and some apps don't work with such contacts very well. (These apps use Google contacts and events extra customized data...

And 6 minutes to flash takju on top of yakju. If we wanted to, that is... :)

As a yakju proud owner, all I can say is that Google has spared us from this 4.2 update. We'll get it once the takju testers have found all the bugs and Google has fixed them ;)

No resolution :( Sorry, I did nothing so far. I'm still on 4.0.2. When I get the time, I'm likely to move on to a rooted yakju. If you do manage to resolve it, please tell us. Thanks

I have not changed anything like recovery etc. I have already tried to clear and stop the framework. It downloaded again, but with exactly the same results on install. Thanks..

Yes No. Nothing like this. I will try the factory reset if I can't fix it without it. Thanks

I got the update message (41.2) MB. It is being downloaded and verifies. I then select to restart & install. The phone starts booting, but stays on the Google logo for a very long time (more than half an hour). To try the update again I have to take the battery out, restart the phone (which...

Help required I've received an update from Samsung this morning and have proceeded to install it. It is now showing the boot Google logo for half an hour or so. Ideas? Edit: After taking the battery out and rebooting, the phone is still on 4.0.2 and telling me that it is up to date. What was...

I can see it now. It's the text only, not pictures etc. It's like the text is rendered again with optimal font thickness, making it easier to read. Nice..

Can you explain to me what you mean? I can't see any of that on my gn...

Can you elaborate? Specifically, does it fit in your pocket? front pant's pocket? (trousers :)) Which case do you use? Thanks

The weight feels and actually is very similar. (The GN is 5g heavier) My issue is the size and therefore the handling of the GN. It's 30% larger but feels a lot more than that. Unlike with the GN, I can keep the N1 in my pants' front pocket without the feeling that it will break in half when I...

I got my galaxy nexus a couple of weeks ago... It is faster, smother, the large keyboard is easy on my thick fingers, battery is OK, pictures are better, etc etc etc... BUT it doesn't fit in my pocket and I also feel it's going to fall and break any minute. So I am back to my N1 (at least for...

I've tried this. Phone doesn't work :(

Try and play with file/directory ownership/permissions to stop this directory/file being written/read.

The trackball? It's really needed on the N1 when the touch screen misbehaves ;-)

i am really curious why do guys dislike the AMOLED so much. I have an AMOLED N1 and a similar vintage SLCD HTC Desire. Both screens are reflective, both are hardly usable in direct sun. I find the AMOLED more readable and pleasant to the eye. (I don't use auto brightness) Before 2.3.3 there...

I would upgrade just to get a N1 with better/working touch. That said, I prefer AMOLED.

I guess I'll give launcher pro a go. Thanks.

What do you mean by laggy? My launcher seems to be OK. Is it always the case or just sometimes?

Or more likely, it could be unintentional.

Reporting back... My WiFi has always been on Never, but Android OS was draining the battery. Switched WiFi to 'Never when plugged in' --> No effect. Exited Latitude, which I remember going into after installing GB, + switched off WiFi completely. --> Good performance. a bit better than Froyo...

Assuming you do not exit engadget using the back key and assuming your phone is not highly loaded, then the answer is within the app logic and not to do with the OS. There can be many ways of getting seemingly unpredictable results in an app. If you can provide the exact steps you take to...

Android life cycle is fairly simple. Apps which are being used will be kept running in the background and thus preserver their state for as long as possible. This is true only if you start a new app without exiting the running one (e.g. Gmail notification, Home button etc.). If you exit the app...

Phone always opens dialer. Contacts opens either Favorites or Contacts based on quoted logic, i.e. the last of the two you had it on before.

Same here. I also likes having the numbers there.

Same here. Did you upgrade your radio as well, or did you already have 5.08 with Froyo?

Yes I know. Possibly a poor choice of words on my part. Thanks anyway. Most people experience better battery performance. It seems to be the opposite for me. I have also moved from 4.0.whatever to 5.08. WiFi seems to take more power than before, but can be something else as well. Ideas?

N1 Screen inaccuracy issue In regard to the infamous issue where sometimes my screen registers touches in incorrect places, and I need to turn the phone off and on to make it work correctly again... Are you experiencing any change with this version? I know that the consensus is that it is a...

This is because the developer has limited the distribution to Android 2.3 (API Level 9) while Android 2.3.3 is API Level 10. You'll have to wait for an update from the developer.

Strange.... My phone now open always on the dial pad tab. EDIT: Same as Rusty!

Deleting /system/etc/install-recovery.sh is enough to stop the stock recovery from returning. Starting with Froyo I believe, the Phone App opens with the last user-selected tab open. That is the last tab you selected when you last exited the phone app.

I actually never did this. Not now and not with previous upgrades. What's the benefit? mem space?

It didn't for me. Without any reboots, I did all the following using Amon RA 2.0.0: Turned sig verification off Flashed the upgrade Flashed SU Used Amon RA to mount /system used adb shell (while in recovery) to delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh A single boot now, and that's it.

** New time zone field in calendar events for us travelers. At last!

SDK Revision 10? Has anyone noticed that the SDK is Revision 10? How come? EDIT: Here is the answer... http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.3.html

Haha... :D Same here... (but SHE insisted on the keyboard)

GB supports time zones in calendar events. It's been a big issue for people traveling across time zones.

Where do you get a paid PBxes account from? Does this apply to outside of the US? Thanks..

HTC Sync is not a good choice. It had many bugs and still does. I've tried using the latest version and noticed that it breaks HTC's own speed dial. It turns out that it stuffs up some internal contact ID and by doing that it breaks apps that rely on it (Contact's LookupKey). I had a very good...

No need to be so hard on yourself ;)

No such problem here...

It's not just you. You are no longer seeing all the apps that are using the (now deprecated) copy protection. Developers are removing the copy protection as they become aware that the apps are not available to 2.2.2 users.

I haven't seen a deodexed 2.2.2 update. Geo must be holidaying :) So your best bet seems to be to try one of dsixda's roms again. Most people report success with this rom.

I believe the issue is mixing deodex (geo) and odex (2.2.2 stock update).

BETTER try this first... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9696494&postcount=6

I am not familiar with rageagainstthecage. With su, the install-recovery.sh comes into play at first reboot, so you want to delete/rename it beforehand. With Amon RA 2.0, it's easy to mount /system and rename the file. Don't know about clockworkmod recovery.

This seems to help: Check your developer console and set copy protection off.

But wait, there is more... :) Before rebooting, you need to get rid of /system/etc/install-recovery.sh If you don't, your recovery will be overwritten with stock recovery.
