So, I hope I am not too bold starting 2 threads in one day, but this camera is freaking AWESOMENESS!
Wanted to share a couple of pics, first my nexus one arriving, beamed from google themselves too my feet(sounds cooler than FedEx).

Hello me new.
The camera is pretty good, wouldn't say awesome but it certainly does the trick. It's good for HTC anyway.

Yes its on my old bedroom ceiling at my parents house. There arnt any on my house.
Darn, I had a snide remark ready. lol
Hey guys, I just wanted to show the difference without the flash on, and with the flash on at night, from a distance. I read in some online reviews that the flash wasn't powerful, and admittedly, the flash doesn't make the second shot a "good" shot, but I think it goes a long way to show how far it can project, and thus its potential.
I personally didn't expect it to reach that far, and even brighten the picture up as much as it did.
Without flash:

Rolling down the window helped.
But that is pretty good projection.

How many year was the Redbreast? I am a bit of a whiskey aficionado. If you haven't tried the 18y/o Redbreast give it a go, has a very unique citrus like flavor, and is great for sipping with a meal.

The 12y/o is a bit spicey, is better IMO (and as your pic seems to show) on the rocks. Actually, 12y/o's across the boards seem to like being served on the rocks. If you are much of a whiskey fan, check out Jamesno Gold Reserve, $60 a bottle, one of the tastiest affordable whiskey's I have ever had, and has a really complex flavor so drinking it never seems to get old.
not a great photo because of the lighting but its the first one I took with the phone. Was at the race track all weekend. it was 5mp and when looking at it fullsize on my computer I'm quite impressed with the camera on this thing. resized it to 800x600
Here's my contribution to this thread!

What is overclock?
Wikipedia said:
Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer, usually practiced by enthusiasts seeking an increase in the performance of their computers. Some purchase low-end computer components which they then overclock to higher clock rates, or overclock high-end components to attain levels of performance beyond the specified values. Others overclock outdated components to keep pace with new system requirements, rather than purchasing new hardware.[1]

It's when you make your phones clock run faster effectively turning your phone into a time machine, but it's a big responsibility with some serious risks.
Beware the butterfly effect.
I would have added an actual explanation but danknee covered that.

NOTHING HAPPENED TO THE DOG, AND WHEN I SAID I KICKED HIM, I DIDN'T REALLY "KICK" HIM, BUT I JUST PUSHED HIM BECAUSE HE WAS LICKING MY PHONE, NOT A HARD PUSH(WITH MY HAND), BUT GOT HIM A WAY FROM THE PHONE. I LOVE ANIMALS"THATS WHY I HAVE 3 DOGS". AND I ALSO HAVE 2 PUPPIES THAT I LOVE. AND IT WAS WASN'T AT THE CHANGING ROOM IT WAS AT MY HOUSE.
AND THANKS FOR INSULTING ME
I LOVE DOGS

It's simple, stop being a moron/irresponsible with your phone and it won't break.
Maybe you should send me your repaired phone and get a different model more suited for people like you. I hear this is a good one:

Instead of buying a new phone, you clumsy moron, go buy a conscience..
Good job feeding the troll people.
There's been a lot of them lately...
You obviously shouldn't be using this type of phone then. You need to get a flip phone where everything is protected, or the thickest case ever made...like your head.
I bet you didn't kick your dog, cos why would you take your dog to a swimming pool?
And even if you did do that, why the **** was it in the changing rooms?
You're a ****in' weirdo.

I'm far from violent but I feel like smashing this guys f'in brains out!!
I don't give a toss what he does to his own possessions. What does annoy me is that there are people in the world that £400 is the difference between food in their belly and a roof over their head, or going for weeks with neither.
That's a hell of a lot of ignorance he's exhibited.

Douchebag. This random 'tard sits there and smashes his HD2. You know what it is? His "mommy and daddy" give him all the money in the world. I have an HD2. I'm 17. I had to work my ASS off to get the $489 to pay for this thing. Just seeing a video like this sickens me. Typical money-wasting white kid. Maybe if he had to do this thing called WORK, he'd realize the value of a dollar.

If he catches you off your guard I'd be VERY suprised. I don't think he has the speed to do that. But yeah, I suppose it would be rude not to help out
I'm pretty sure that the HD2 that he smashed was not functional to begin with. Otherwise he would have definitely turned on the screen prior to hammering it. He probably bricked it after visiting XDA.

excuse my language
also i think youtube sped up the video if so please report it to me so ill can redo it
Enjoy!
P.s. i ran outta memory on my camera cuz it uses CD's so i only did a tear down no assembly
Wow you are brave I would not ever dare to take apart my phone, knowing myself I would end up ripping of the display ribbon or somehow making it catch on fire LOL.
Either way thanks for the video, it was fun looking at the insides of my phone
You are brave man indeed Anyway, nicely done m8
Where do we get the springs?
Highly appreciate the try and your braveness, however I would never be able to do this based on your video, is almost impossible to exactly know what are you doing.

Suggestion: next time maybe put the camera on a Tri-pod and keep what you are doing to the phone in the view of the camera the whole time and also post the reassembly. If these two things get done for your next video I would be more than willing to donate.
Great first shot though, keep up the good work.

Great job man, no offense but the video sucked only because it didn't show us what you were exactly doing. If you could get a new camera and stick it on a tripod then it'd be perfect. Thanks anyway dude.
alright guys as you wish i just bought a tri pod just for you guys
the new video will be out soon
Not if I beat you to it.
I just took the phone apart and put it back together with out nay problems. Thank you OP for the warnings. No loose screw no scratches just like brand new.
I also took measurements of the spring if any one wants to buy a different spring to replace the stock one.
The Length of the spring is 10mm
the outer diameter is 4mm
I think I found a good one to replace with.
I am not sure what is the tension of the stock one.

When is part 3 coming out?
thanks for the info.
if

the outer diameter is 4mm
then strongest one may be
http://www11.ocn.ne.jp/~sotec/product/compression/syosai/CS0600400100.html
(use chrome to translate)
if the free length and outer diameter are fixed, the wider wire diameter, the stronger. and this one is widest diameter for 10mm/4mm.
or maybe Spring-2241?

Yes it is that unique, it stops bullets! Dont you watch the news? haha
The Evo is also mentioned by name at the end of the CBS Atlanta clip.
As a footnote, the bullet was traveling at a very shallow angle judging from the damage to the battery. Definitely not a straight on shot.

EDIT: I dryly commented that I think they could cite Act of God ... but I'm editing that out because I doubt myself . I'm genuinely currious to be honest.

The Police are going to refund him to buy another phone, They kept his phone as evidence in the crime. So he won't have to use none of his insurance, if he has any.

I'm at work and can't actually listen to the clip ... thanks
It must have been a .22 that hit him.
What a great story! if you watch the video clip, the newscasters mention the "evo cellphone" three separate times. very nice!
That's nothing. My EVO saved my life by donating a kidney. I love you, EVO.
My Evo saves me when I get hungry. I have an app that turns on my stove, and the toaster and the Ravioli boils. Through WiFi.
Just kidding... this is an incredible story lol

I had a heart attack and died, lucky I had a evo defibrillator app and it shocked me back to life.

It was stated in the report that it was a 40 cal round that hit the phone.
They should start issuing Evos to our troops in Afghanistan.
"Now Garber is waiting for endorsements, "Sprint can contact me whenever they would like or HTC.""
Wow..really? What a tool. I am glad the cell phone saved his life and all, but why would you get endorsements? You didn't do anything special, you just got shot and it just so happened the cell phone was there. Now, it would be different if he got shot at, he grabbed the phone and deflected the shot..ha.
was the phone rooted and what rom and kernel....that is what makes a phone tougher!!! i am sure the batt was stronger with the htc battery trick for full charge
new evo commercial
this is android
and this is a battery
and this is a user that uses a phone that is faster then a speeding bullet.
