I got my Nexus One, and while I expected it to be good.. I did not expect this much! Literally the best phone I have ever had in my 14 year old life (After previously having G1s, MyTouch's, etc.) It feels so smooth, its so fluid.. I love everything about it! Google, I wuv you guys..
Now, as I've said before, a better phone better not come out by Xmas.. don't wanna sell this thing so soon ^.~
Wait, you're 14? How did you afford this phone?
Lucky bastard

My 14-year old had one for a day. She couldn't do without a physical keyboard so we're waiting until an android handset comes out with one. She loved everything else and, despite the lack of a keyboard, my Nexus One is the best phone I've ever had. I come from Windows Mobile.

It takes a while to get used to the on-screen keyboard. I know from experience, I came from a G1.
After a few months, I still can't type as fast as I did with the G1 keyboard, but it beats having to turn the phone sideways and flip out the keyboard just to type a few letters in some app. The convenience of the big screen and using the on-screen portrait keyboard without having to turn the phone sideways outweigh the gained typing speed on my G1.
your lucky dude..14 years old with a nexus...anyway I love this phone..coming from a touch pro 2..I don't miss that phone one bit..not even the keyboard..well maybe a little lol but still this phone is great and so is swype.
Speaking of typing on a virtual keyboard...have you seen the video of a guy typing 83 wpm on a virtual keyboard? Albeit, it's not a N1...impressive non-the-less.
wow when i was 14year i didn't even have a dumb phone lol, congratz on your nexus one hope you enjoy it
My nexus one surprises me every day. It is definitely the phone I've been waiting for.

Enjoy your awesome phone ^_^

I'm 16 and I afforded it because of money I earned selling 3D designs and birthday money (hehe) but ITS ALL MINE. So if I break it, I know what it feels like to lose $530.
Saw this 15 year old drop his iPhone in my class, screen shattered, and he told everyone, its alright, parents will buy me a new one. Can't always depend on them, you know what I mean?

good for your parents, you will thank them some day for installing some decent values into you
it really is pathetic how much kids are given these days... NO concept of money what so ever... mommy and daddy just buy everything for them... when I see 16-22 year olds driving around in their brand new BMW's and Audi's i literally want to vomit... I have no respect for them... I work for everything I own and it feels god damn great!
I'm 14 and pressured my mom into getting it on release day, she ended up getting it on release day too lmao

i got mine today after days of frustration with tmobile! at long last i thought! what a beautiful little slab of magnificence......i had it for all of twenty minutes before my wife nabbed it! now its here phone and i'm stuck with my bloody touch pro2. gutted!
nothing new here...just thought i'd warn y'all!
back hand the woman and tell her to get back into the kitchen and make you some food!
j/k =)
smart wife!!!
I bought my wife a HTC Diamond 2 a day before I ordered my HD2.
She gets mad when I won’t let her touch my HD2 w/o my supervision....
Oh well, I have seen her drop her phone 6x on the kitchen floor in the past 1.5months she's had it. I'm not taking the risk!
Just buy her one too. I always ask my wife if she wants one, when I get a new phone.
Problem solved
send your gf/wife to a finger nail artist at your expense, it's almost impossible to use a touchscreen phone with those long finger nails
Luckily my gf would find this phone too big for her tiny little hands. Small hands make anything she holds look far bigger!
They're buy one get one free, go back and get one for yourself!

Buahahahaha, i craped my pants
I thought I should share. in Dec 2008 I bought an iPhone for my wife and Xperia X1 for myself. She still has that iphone but I moved from X1 to X2 and then HTC european version and then Austrlian version which works on ATT US.
Now she tells me that iphone is the best since she has not changed it then where I got 4 phones.
Now we have fun bashing each others phone.
Well, I was thinking about X10
My wife doesn't touch the HD2. She thinks its too complicated to use compared to her mytouch.
She wants my iPhone though, but I'm keepng it.

v.wise
*clears throat*
Excuse me my dear sweet husband . . . .
Lets please be reminded who is paying for this phone. AS for you carrying the phone I think it is only fair I carry the HD2 because you said I'd love the Motorola cliq and that was a lie. It was clearly nothing like the G1 and I trusted your geeky opinion. I think they should revok your membership here clearly on the basis that you have no clue.
AS for the wet farts who told you to ***** slap the mofo exsqueeze me. you should be shaking the hand of a woman like me who can appreciate the value of a extraordinary phone. i may not be the triple tapped gadget calendar girl but trust me you will rarely come across someone who posses a vagina who will put down that kind of money for a mini computer.
And as a woman with small hands it does look rather large in my hands but as any man can appreciate the tight grip i hold on it without it actually being dropped and smile with pride because a girl gets it is all I need. And as for my nails I had them done last week and they are sports cut to enhance my qwerty keyboard speed. Ninja like moves, cat like reflexes!!
xxxx
wow...NOW who got ***** slapped!?!?
damn i should never have shown her this!
damn man better luck next time...lol Busted
Oh and as a side note, he doesn't even have a pregnant wife, so don't jump crazy over it LOL>
LOL That is made of total win bro. good find.
lmao. im glad to see that theres at least a few people that dont buy into apples bs and see the flaws they have. especially those that were once owners of iphones.
hahahahaha wow!!! i wish he was my friend back in highschool lolol
The guy needs to show some passion.
Thanks! I really needed that.
30 bucks for a piece of silicone is ridiculous. BTW does this guy just have on a weird hat, or is it a head injury?

I believe it's what we call a skull cap here in my area of the country... it's kinda like a winter hat per se, but people rock them all year long because they're not too common and they look good (on me LOL)
On second look after I submitted this reply, Yeah, that's definitely a skullcap.
This guy reminds me of me, except for the last 30 seconds. I'd never even fake hitting a woman on purpose. Unless the woman is my fiance's sister. I like smacking her under her chin ROFL.
The color made it look like a bandage.

OMG I was laughing so hard.
I LOL'd at both of these. XD
The dude in the first one looks like he'd be a riot at parties. Well, except for the wife-beating part. (Yes, I understand that it was a joke.) The dialog in the second was brilliant. I have two friends with iPhones and I've been trying to tell them the same thing, but they're stuck on their iPhones. One is sticking with his 3GS, but the other is definitely getting the 4. Ugh.
omg i fell out on both of those...still laughing..
Those were hilarious!!! Still laugh when I think about them......
I must be wrong, but every time I see someone in this forum, I assume he is a guy. I must be wrong. Are there any girls here?
(sorry for the trivial question, but I just think it can't be true).
everyone knows there are no girls on the internet, sheesh.
ha ha ha ha. they don't care about their cell phones like us.
Not as many girls on this one as some of the other android forums but yes there are a few of us .... I'm mainly on SprintUsers.com but most links refer to here so decided to see what I can do over here.
Girl? What is this, Girl-thing, that you speak of? I'm intrigued...
LOL
LoL. I have had to explain at least 3 times to my girlfriend why she doesn't want to get the purple LG phone with flowers on it and the $70 unlimited data plan.
She is a pHD.
I don't foresee her joining this forum in the near future.
my girl couldnt even use the evo touchscreen. she just kept hitting it with her nails or something awkward *facepalm*
back to the razr she goes.
i once saw a girl on a linux forum and she schooled everyone.. it was one of the hottest things ive ever seen.. but at xda, i dont think so.. plus its probably better that i dont find out cause then i would only come to xda to answer her questions as soon as i found out cause even if she is butt ugly i can find the inner beauty in a tech gurl.. gawd, tech gurls are such a turn on
let me know if u need anything sasha

I've been checking out XDA since way back when I first got my FUZE. So much great info here. I rooted my FUZE and was very happy with the results. Now I'm enjoying the EVO. It's nice to see that there's at least 1 other girl on here! LOL.
My gf has a Evo too (She switched from a iPhone) and she is in love with Android and loves having her phone as she says "hacked" but we know as rooted. She doesn't know about XDA though, I just install the cool stuff for her
(Didn't like my post and regretted it...but had to wait till now to delete)

yeaaaaa... i agree.
My ex couldn't even figure out my iPhone, yet somehow my 62 year old mom figured out how to use her evo and start texting, too!
But other than that, I don't think very many girls know what a forum even means, much less how to find one. Haha.

sweetheart, comments like this is why so many girls have not posted. BTW, putting a HaHa on the end of a sentence still does not make it funny.
There are some woman here. Not sure how many though. My wife has my old hero and is eying my evo for when I grab the next best thing in a few months.
my grandma jus got an EVO she rooted it all her self......maybe i should bring her to this thread and to u guys dont u guys think so...........
j/k
I don't believe that hacking phones is a "girly" thing to do. or is it? I do wonder about some of you guys though.....
Just like you wouldn't really expect alot of girls to be drag racing. There are a few. And these girls are one of a kind.
I don't mean to stereo-type any women here....but it has been my seeing that most women prefer more of a girly like life sytle.... very rarely have I ever met a women who care about how fast a phone is.. how many gigahertz it has, how much RAM or the difference in kernels or software let alone all the technical b.s. we throw in between. But it is nice to see them around. For example... I serve the country in uniform, and while yes they are here in uniform. They don't much care for technical details of there job. They just show up and do what is asked of them. Nothing more. And again while most are wrapped up with clubs and fashion and what have you there is a small handful of them that do surprise us.... glad to see at least there are surprises here.

Yes, I understand that there are several threads that discuss this, but everybody seems to find an answer and I don't. My notification bar does not slide down, but it does while in landscape mode (on the left side the whole way up and down). I ran a screen test and there was nothing wrong, and I didn't drop it. Anybody know what it could be?
Have you tried wiping and reflashing your ROM/ kernel?
I had this EXACT problem. only.. it happened right after i dropped it. i just called sprint and told them idk y it was doing it so they replaced my phone.
full wipe and reflash the rom.
It also helps us more if we know what rom and kernel you're running

I had the stock rom when I started.. I whiped and reflashed to MikiFroYo rom, idk what the kernel is. I can't get another one because I bought this on eBay and don't have insurance for it :/ I wanted to get an otterbox or something for it, but I have an extended battery on it.
Well you can get insurance with Sprint that's what I did and I just my EVO from eBay also....I'm not sure if you can get it anytime or if its open enrollment this month....I suggest you check it out...oh and my bar is messed up too.
I've haven't had access to my notification bar for probably 6+ months. Just click menu and notification and move on with life lol. I heard it could be as simple as cable on motherboard isn't fully inserted as in popped out on a drop. Or rough handling.

I've had this issue with themes on several ROM's. Remove the theme and run the ROM as normal and the bar returns. Install the themes again and it goes away.

Actually yes, that makes you cheap and ghetto. $100 is a fair price for a refurb considering your busted a** piece that you call an EVO has a cracked screen and it's still cheaper than any upgrade you're thinking about getting.

Lol, I've had my EVO since launch. Ghetto people like yourself disgust me. You didn't say you wanted to upgrade. I was just making my point. That point would be that your cheap and that getting a refurb would be more cost effective for ghetto people like you than to upgrade. Use your brain before you open your mouth or put your fingers on a keyboard.
