N1 + iPad = Perfect Match

I'm on the road with my brothers, I'm Running wireless tether on my N1 and I am able to browse the Internet on this gorgeous big screen. I'm typing this up on it right now! My brother knows nothing about rooting or anything of that nature. So he is pretty amazed that my phone can do this that he now wants to get an Android phone. Possibly an N1 too.

thats soo cool dude. i want an iPad rather much. gonna wait for the version 2.0 though i believe.

I thought the iPad couldn't tether.
Maybe just not with an iPhone

ipad can connect wifi... n1 can provide connectivity for wifi devices =)

omg how???

The games on the ipad look like a lot of fun. I think in a few months we can expect Android to get some more of the big game development companies to start making games like NBA Live.

dahhh it says my kernel is bad or something

I have been wondering exactly who ipads appeal to as I know no one who wants one or is planning on buying one. I am old though so it is probably more an age thing than anything else. Glad you are digging it, a new toy is always good.

The iPad is a great device. I played with it at the Apple store this weekend.
However, it's not much more than an entertainment device. The lack of multitasking, and a real file system kills it for me. Productivity is possible, but without those two, it suffers greatly.
Add those two, and a camera, and now we're talking.
I'll wait for version 2.0, or the Chrome Tablet. Check out the pics / video:

i took my SIM out (at&t) and then went to the market and searched for PDANet and i have come to the conclusion that at&t has been blocking access to this app... so now i have it

What has root done for you?

What have you done since you've gotten root access?

I rooted, and the only thing I have done is remove apps I don't want.

Same here, removed apps for now.
I look forward to a good custom ROM in the future as there are some aspects of the MT4G Sense I would rather not have.

pack said:

All about the custom roms and kernels. Root was the prerequisite. Now that we have it developers can start working on the real stuff, as in the "life or death" stuff everyone is so excited about. I'll take it you're new to android/rooting? Wait and see, great things to come

no not at all actually :/ i got addicted back with the G1 and have had a list of android phones since then... i lost my nexus one the other day so im just as excited as anyone else... i just wanted to see if anyones been playing with anything good or just makin minor tweaks

Not only removing stock apps. It helps u bring a sense of originality & style to ur device with the full customation ability that Root access provides. In addition to that, making your device run smoother & faster & not being an eager slave to the creators of the smartphone world. In easier terms, not always waiting for the things u anticipate for that ur phone is already suppose to do. I was a sceptic at first, but once u decide to take that turn towards rooting u will be very satisfied.

Just to be clear I'm not asking if I should root my phone and why... I just wanted to see what the first things people did when they got root...

is it making a difference? normally the bloatware weighs down the boot time but thats not an issue here....

im hoping we can overclock are mt4g like the g2 can. 1.6ghz would be nice if it was stable. so im gonna wait to root my phone till overclocking comes to this phone.

I'm as bad a spec geek as the next, but I've yet to find any reason to OC over 1ghz on any recent phone I've had.
I would only OC when I was trying to pull the best benchmark and then back to 1ghz for me on my Evo...

Rooting
I wasn't aware that there was a root for this phone so quickly. Where is it located so that I can remove all this crap that I will never ever want to use. Thanks. Also What is mobile defense.

So far the only thing I've really done with root was change the Lock/Unlock sounds. I'm a huge Metal Gear Solid fan so now whenever I lock or unlock the phone I hear the codec open or close sound.

whats the easiest way to remove said bloatware again? titanium?

I've removed bloatware and the rosie.apk. Also, I'm waiting until u can actually underclock my processor.

This information must be shared, Snake!
I'm guessing Root Explorer would do the trick? I've never looked into doing that before. Mind sharing the location and/or the sound?
Anyway, removed bloat, used Setcpu, gave Juice Defender root access. And @flopie, mobile defense is an app that can track your phone if you ever lose it. Shows the gps location on a map at their web page. You can remotely lock it down or wipe the phone and sd card if you have to.

While is everyone so negative, im just great!!

First off: Osama is Dead
2nd: I have such an awesome rom on my phone, bonsai rom
3rd: all this talk about sprints datas tiers and wireless tether scare thread are not needed. As i still have it have a no ciq rom and dont think i donwload over my unlimited 5gbs.
4th: Why is some people ***** whine and complain about updates, seriously its a freaking update people!!!!
5th: this debate about htc vs samsung who is the better hardware/support blah blah blah just pick whatever one looks best and will work out for u
6th: why do we need 10,000 roms when we have a blazing fast phone and stable roms right here.
7th: htc/sprint updates were just as slow when i had htc phones and i really feel that the speed between updates is really not important especially when we have great developers here
Im great, i dont know about you but i still tether,enoy the roms, no cop is going to check my phone and i dont have a criminal record so
EVERYTHING IS DANDY!!!!

I could use a thicker wire so I can try some custom rom goodness, but besides that I'm good. Off topic. When I root, is it possible to save my data with something like titanium before I flash to a custom rom? I watched the videos and maybe I skipped the one where he did.

Titanium is definitely the way to go!! Easy and restores all app and app data, just don't backup system app it data, u may run into corruption so pretty much backup everything that's highlighted green and not red..

Yes. I save apps and data with Titanium before flashing and if the ROM changes launchers on you, reinstall your launcher and data.

Have you guys tried MyBackup at all, or does Titanium just work.

MyBackup Root is what I use and it's simple and flawless. I felt Titanium was needlessly complicated. I suppose to each their own.

I use Titanium because it easy to just restore data to one app when I need it. You can also freeze memory hog apps from reloading with the paid version.
Do you BONSAI?

Titanium has schedules so I always have a fresh backup everyday cause it backs up at 3,4,5am while I'm sleeping, all different backups at different times

Worth it to upgrade via the update?

Well its gingerbread and no it shouldn't wipe the phone

If you GF is setting on the 2.2.1 ROM this will be the Gingerbread ROM. It will not wipe the phone in the least. It will keep everything as is. It'll just update the ROM.

It's 2.3.4 but why is there no Google Talk Video Chat?

was there a link to follow or how did she get the OTA?

The update is for Android 2.3.3 not 2.3.4 so it will not include support for video chat in Gtalk http://androidandme.com/2011/07/car...ch-4g-gingerbread-ota-update-rolling-out-now/

i certainly am, as a long time android user ( G1 crew!!) i have learnt my lesson too many times when it comes to OS updates. do not ever download and install them straightaway.
case in point- some people are experiecing USB and battery issues with the WW ICS rooted rom floating around.
better idea: wait a week for a dev to to their stuff and then jump in.

Using the US rooted and have had no issues yet. Transformer finally runs the way I want it to, have fun on HC.

For the average user this is a good idea, but for someone looking to develop, the more you know the better, even if learned by troubleshooting problems you caused yourself by being too hasty..

eg how is your USB connection, can you connect via USB?

My USB was not working but only because I wasn't doing the OTA update. Flashed that first ROM that was released with CWM. All I had to do was flash the new KWT US rom and everything is good to go. I could see your issue with not updating if you couldn't simply do a nandroid backup prior and then do a restore if necessary but I assume most patrons of this forum know how to move around between ROMs with ease. What a strange post in these forums, come to think of it.

I was holding back, but only because I had to go to work. I'm home now so let the hacking begin!

I am holding back because I dual boot and wont give up my Ubuntu boot for ICS when Prime is doing just fine for me.. And I have experienced ICS on my Mom's nexus and I am running it on my Thunderbolt, so the novelty has worn off for me..
However, once there is a nvflashable ICS port I will jump ship..

Holding back. Got the Revolver ROM 3.11.1 customized to my liking. I know I can backup and restore... but I just can't walk away from my config for an unproven and likely buggy first (and probably rushed) ICS release.

Ok, I made the switch- so far not too bad. Some things are zippy, while other things a bit laggy. Maybe a reboot will fix it.

No battery issue what so ever.
The USB issue is EASILY fixed. Doesn't make sense to hold back for this reason.

took me like 15 minutes to uninstall the damn thing

I updated mine and still having the random deep sleep issues where I have to cold boot it I even did a factory reset any suggestions please and thank you
