Haha just for comic relief i wanted to start this thread :d
anyone else having huge problems with this phone when being drunk?
I accidently dropped the phone last thursday. I was in a club and my back cover flew off! Haha
I thought about this topic too, but I can't answer this question yet...
With my old D750 I was able to call any contact I wanted - at all time. Actually without dropping the phone or dial a wrong number
I don't know how, but I've managed it
You missed a few options:
"No, its just as hard to use SOBER never mind drunk!"
"Yes, but no harder than any other phone.".

Ah yes, i don't think there is a way to edit the poll though Are these options true for you? I think it's pretty easy when sober but my other phones were much easier when leaning against the wall of a bar and trying to text message with double vision lol
ahhahah when i'm really drunk i can't use my phone but i can't walk on my feet too
Just think, it's a new selling point>
X1 may save your relationship.. NO more embarrasing drunk calls!

hehe, ever i not drunk now, still have chances to miss click with finger, lol
Well... maybe its better to not call when being drunk, so that you wont call people sleeping innocent at 4/5 in the morning.. i had that on my p990i the next morning i saw that i called 5 numers but that was much like 341426 and that number doesnt exists ..
i wouldnt risk damaging it lol...so i use my old w580i when i go out. But if i were drunk in the house with my x1 i'd probably say it was harder than some other phones simply cause of the touchscreen.
Maybe this is an idea for a new panel, one that is very easy to use when you are drunk and has taxis and kebab shops on speed dial, lol
Nice thread
I find the phone fine on most occasions, but like someone said a while back, never buy this phone for your girlfriend/mother/grandmother (unless they're relatively geeky and have a bit more patience than your average, erm, trying not to dig myself a hole here, but you get what I mean).
It's not the most intuitive phone to use, but when setup properly with a nice GUI it can be easier to use. It's just that with basic WM you have to be quite accurate with the stylus/finger. And as we all know, accuracy goes out of the window when you're drunk...

i dont know about u guys..
but whenever a chick sees me using X1 ..they just come up to me and wanna have a look...when i show them 3D fish panel..its just a chick magnet.
maybe its the price tag or the premium image associated with it...but man..its one phone that can get u nearly laid.
also
i asked one girl who was having look at x1 ..'dont u like iphone' ..she said 'iphone sucks...its a pain to type on it' .
have u guys experienced the attention X1 gets u ?
Thats true, hahaha.
Its quite a status symbol, haven't tried to use the fish as a chick magnet though
come fishy fishy
so far i just had a ugly taxi driver and some ugly waitress in an cafe' .
ill try it tonight, pull it out more often and try to look busy while there are chicks near me ...

Maybe there is more nerdy girls in Singapore. I haven't seen any girl get impressed by a phone since Razr. No one cares anymore.
Anyhow, the fish panel may work
people like my phone, girls too but dont think its going to get u anywhere lol.
(have not tried as my girlfriend will not be too impressed)
I've made a scientific test 'bout chicks and panels against placebo (Iphone or Nokia N95)
Here are my results:
They love to touch the SEX1 when:
- scrolling thru the horizontal ("poker" style) panel interface
- feeding the fishes
p < 0.01
TIP 1: giude them with your hand, they just love to be guided
TIP 2: open the keyboard; sort of "extending" stuff drives them nuts
TIP 3: feel confident, you are they kind of lucky guy who owns this piece of bleeding edge sh+t
TIP 4: combine the proximity opportunity with a great perfume
After you get their attention, it's up to your lover's skills

you guys rock! I had the RAZR 2 weeks before it was released in germany, that was really a way to get to know cute ladies.
Atm I still got problems to customise my homescreen, I´m switching ROM every week, but when I figured out what fits me, I definitely will hunt for chicks with it.
Hmmm...I tried but always just get a bunch of technic-interested guys around me when I pull out the phone -only a few girls outthere are interested in pocket pcs
Works better when I tell the girls about my hardware
Flirty thread. lol
A lot of virgin guys in this thread LMFAO .
"hides quickly"
Lol
Doesn't seem to work, I'm walking through London today with a Trilby hat a black double breasted coat with the collar up detective style, pull out my xperia and stylus and some chick thinks i'v come to evict her or something.
P.S. Back when my iPhone was new, a couple years ago, that got loooooads of attention form the ladies, back when i was spoken for. Nothing so far from the Xperia. Alas, guys like me don't need gadgets to entice the ladies ;P
Oh the irony, using the panel's fish to... "fish".
Rite^ ..maybe u shud not pull out the stylus.
Uhh.. only thing that happened was this girl with us one night said "ooh you have touchscreen like me, can i see?"

Who needs the ladies when you have your Xperia
I want everyone to know that I'm happily married and not looking to flirt with women!
Now that's out of the way, I've found the phone does attract a certain amount of attention. I've been asked 2-3 times by ladies in the last couple of weeks about my phone. Once I slide the keyboard out, that's it, they're hooked!
I put it down to the phone saying "I have class" in an understated way.
Now that I have sold my Nexus One. i was very sad immediantly just because the phone was sexy as hell and amazing speed. The college i got accepted to sends all incoming freshmen a iphone 3gs and are required to use it to keep in contact with professors.
Now that thats said i want to continue with whats the truth about the nexus.
1) i had a problem with the headphones along with alot of other people when listening to music threw your headphones that came with the nexus you would get a shock... for me it mostly happend when i was plugged into a computer
2) DUST...omg the dust i got under the corner of the screen was annoying the crap out of me. i couldnt get it sent back because i wanted to keep the engraving on the phone. and i didnt want to wait 2 weeks for them to send me my phone back.
3) the phones speed is AMAZING but i feel as if google hasnt completly utilized the speed and GPU yet. *if they can pull this off, things would be so much better than the iphone*
want to add other things about this phone *without being biased* ? go ahead lets see if we can get some good information in here for new android users
Yeah...
Non-biased my ass. The only thing the iPhone does better than the N1 is the app store. To say they need to work on their GPU is just a pathetic representation of a review...
I'm not even going to try wasting my time to make this a worthwhile thread. OP, you're just... Ugh..
Too LAZY to send it back and wait a couple weeks for a problem... That's YOUR fault. There's policies in place to remedy issues... *****ing isn't the appropriate remedy.
P.S. Shocking from earbuds happens with more than just the stock headphones. Go google it.
they need to fix the dust under the screen issue.
!maybe a way to upscale low res images from the interwebs so they don't look like ass on the high res display!
but honestly, i have been more then happy with my Nexus after selling my 3GS.

THe headphones that come with the N1 doesn't work well on other standard 3.5mm jacks because the pins are specifically designed for the N1. Apparently if you insert the headphones into your computer half way it should work like normal headphones.

To the OP: cool story, bro.
There was exactly no reason for the OP as he just stated a few well-known issues that people can experience with this phone. Every device has a its own set of issues and the OP will now be fortunate enough to experience the many IPhone problems.
I think we'd all be better off if this entired thread was deleted.
Wow what college do you go to?

wow didnt know there was so many haters in here lol go get a life. i posted this thread for new people to look at some issues and as to the iphone headbuds that sucks i have never even heard of that problem i havent been shocked by them for a couple of weeks so we will see if i get that problem.

that's cool that abilene christian gives out 3gs's. i guess thats how my friend got his. congrats

the dust issue didnt happen to all nexus's. heck i haven't gotten one speck under mine yet.
also hope you didnt use the stock headphones. i usually assume stock is bad.
enjoy the iphone. i personally cant wait to see what comes out of the next one.

If you were to post in an apple forum..."hey, i just sold my iphonepod in favour of a nexus one" you would see similar responses. The only difference being a witch hunt would ensue if you left the apple collective

People are growing tired of "it's okay, it's only the internet" as a justification for poor grammar and ill-written thoughts. It is also rather ironic that a person is off for higher education and is unable to use simple words correctly. Perhaps they should be handing out dictionaries and the like rather than iphones...

Let me help you with that since you'll need to know this in college:
i spelt threw wrong....woah! you're big and bad.
Your is a possessive term, where as you're is the conjugation of "you are". So in the future, make sure you check if your usage is right by replacing the term with "you are" and seeing if it makes sense to you.
Anyway dude...bro... you need to grow up and stop acting like an e-Gangsta. To be fair, nothing you posted is anything new. We've all heard it all before and so the thread is a flaming waste of space. That being said, good luck in college.
The phone has a powerful processor and an impressive amount of RAM. I dont think it uses either one nearly to its potential (at least i hope not), which is kind of cool because, although the phone is smooth and fast, the performance ought to be able to be vastly improved with software updates. I like the phone a lot but i also think its fair and justified to expect a lot more from it down the road.
If anyone that knows about hardware can confidently tell me not to expect much more from the device please post that information so that i may sell this phone. thanks
'Through' is the correct spelling. 'Threw' is the past tense of 'throw
"Yesterday, I threw a ball through a hoop."
I'm glad Jesus can afford iphone 3gs's for all students!
Jesus is a baller, lol, im still confused about this dust issue, does anyone have a picture of what this is all about? I got mine the day it launched and I have no idea what people are talking about I havent had any problems with dust and really cant see how it could get under the screen, I keep mine in my pocket every day so Im sure it woulda happened by now if it could. Id also have to agree that the only thing the iphone has is the app store, once androids gets up there it will be a lot better because there's a lot more potential. Id already have to say that handcent, dolphin, and google voice are good examples of that because apple only lets you use their stuff and blocks something if they already have an option is pretty wacksauce in my opinion, why not let the people choose which they like the best, makes no sense to me. Oh well. /rant

Meaningless thread...
Wow, OP is so smart that he can go to a university!!! SO? I've got my B.S. already, duh!
I just wonder who the heck would buy OP's engraved Nexus One with dust under the screen...
I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.
N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.
If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.
Android FTW.

Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...
I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!

You may also want to check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654493
I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.
And to fill that final need.......

Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.
Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.
Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.

I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.
Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.

PM brother...
New BB arrived today, still hasnt been configured but I had a quick play...
Design is the usual, but back to the original width so larger than the recent ones... It is the thinnest one ever though... Feels well built and looks pretty smart... Keyboard does feel like the best BB one yet, but the keys above them are shiny so show fingerprints... Back is weird if you ask me... The battery cover is basically clear plastic/glass over a textured surface, again finger prints, but different I suppose...
Now then, OS7... What can I say? Same'ol'same old...As crap as ever but with a brand new lick of paint... Touchscreen works, but I just thought, what's the point really...
Read a post over at crackberry and some guy got rid of his S2 for one of these things... We might have some intellectually challenged members, but what does that make him?!
Anyway, I'd like to introduce you all to a great new charity... It's called the 'Get Caspa an S2 as his work decided to get him a BB 9900 at the last minute Fund', a great cause as he shouldn't have to suffer in this way... I'm sure you'll agree...
Rest assured, 100% of donations will go to the fund and remember, YOU can make a real difference in Caspa's life...

I can't afford to donate sadly(I'm still paying my own sgs2 off), but if it would help you feel better...I could take some pictures of my sgs2 when its out and about? My g/f has one aswell, so could post pics of both phones together?

I'm afraid that would upset me even more!
@ALL
WTF?!?! ... Who decided to rate my thread so low?! Some brain dead ****er no doubt... This shouldnt even be considered rateable! What are you rating, my misfortune / comments on the BB / general humour?!
Swines!
Don't you have a mobile of your own mate or do you just rely on your job to provide you with a phone?You can get the GS2 for free on contract in UK if you cant afford to purchase it outright although i always recommend purchasing outright and avoid long contracts.
Even if i had a job that provided a phone id still ensure i had my own phone and it wouldn't be a bloody iPhone or Blackberry either.
Just an observation
I think it's odd how many people say the Note is too big, or you will look funny holding the phone up to your ear. I make at least 40 calls a day, and I do not use a headset, and not once has anyone said I look funny holding the phone to my ear. Maybe I do look funny, but nobody has ever mentioned it, or even looked at me funny. I think the first few days I used the Note, I felt a little weird, but now I don't even think about the phone size.
opps, wrong section, sorry

As do I, however am seeing a lot more notes around in Bombay. I for one cannot do without it. Looked at the HTC one x as well, Meh.

40 calls a day? You must be fame...
I live in Colombia and I'm traveling weekly around Latinamerica and here phone operators sell it as a Tablet?? People keeps asking me why I just don't buy a regular phone instead of using the "tablet" as a phone.

If someone doesn't want to get the Note because he or she "will look funny with it" and not because it's too big or any other actual reason - there's something wrong with that person, not the phone. Enough said

My opinion is exactly the same, people are saying different things but I think just because they are jealous.
I don't run one, but I am a busy guy in a big business.

It doesn't matter when it's big enough to satisfy expectations my friend
I agree w. OP. I am a Prof on a 3 campus university. I am always walking around them and the research labs. I have no problems with putting the Note in my front pocket, talking on the phone with it my ear, using it with one hand and of course being able to do email, schedule, find a room number of a meeting - all while on the fly walking w/ or w/o the pen and usually using the dead accurate voice commands and dictation - never get a strange look.
I use the note like a computer and get things done with such less frustration than past phones ( moving between touch, pen and voice and using allot of gesture controls for speed). I am on one campus when a crisis happens on another ( I am a Grad Chair for a Interactive CS school on one campus and Dir of another small program in Cog Sci on another), checking email and voice inputting a reply or room number or person to call - saves me hours of frustration if I had let the problem grow and not made a quick fix or alleviated with a quick email.
The phone is a godsend and the 'it just looks to big for me being on my hip bus in Manhattan with my hipster friends ( hey I grew up in Manhattan) is just stupid press BS which we have to read all the time. Although 5 million of us know better.

Years back, the smallest phone was the trend and if you owns a small expensive phone, you would be the talk of the room! But nowadays, large device/screens are the growing tend. 4.3-4.6 inches screens seems to be the most popular but I think it won't be too long before the majority of people would adopt a 4.8 or 5.5 inches phone!
Thing is we all like to browse websites/check emails/watch photos and videos on the go, and to be able to do this with ease, we need more screen space. The Dell Streak 5 was great but it was built with very outdated hardware/specs. Samsung definitely has won the consumers by making the Note stands out of the market with the S Pen and some top hardware specs.
