Opinions on new Nexus Site

Was wondering what you guys think i should improve on =) any feedback would be amazing.
n1user.com

There are too many N1 "news" sites.

Pretty Cool...but, there are so many outthere now!
I'v been on this very good site from day one: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/nexus-one-discussion/

Yeah i noticed shortly after i started its gona be hard getting it up n running =/
Thanks for responses though.

Honestly, I think it's a good site. Has all the elements - news, rss, forum,Twitter link, etc. But there are quite a few N1 sites. A suggestion, purely from a reader standpoint; a little more content, maybe a contest, and just being helpful when I say this-use the spellcheck a little more. Other than that, its a good read. I have bookmarked the site and added a follow to twitter. Good luck, and keep up the good work.

Thanks alot, yeah i will also going to photoshop the looks of it little more.
I know when i started this project i didnt know there was this many sites already i was like ****! lol they all came outa no where. But yeah ill try to keep up certainly dont have experience they do as far as design goes. I really appreciate the comment though. =)

Also working on Custom header banner it should be ready in few days. As far as more content what where you looking for? I was thinking gallery of nexus one pics that i can find. Also anyone have tips on SEO i have plugin running for it and added to search engines, also using google adwords but its hard getting it listed on engines.

Here are 2 links for you
www.google.com/phone
www.google.com/nexusone
I believe both of them link back to the same site since I am getting 404 on both site.

Alright back up sorry for problems today with site, i been all over it trust me.

Yeah looks like there not active yet but i will definitely post more info on site when i hear something new.

Was there a leaked update on the HD2 on 8/28 or 8/29 that I missed????

I have heard rumors, but nothing substantiated....and a search is turning up nothing.....

I keep an eye out for that kind of thing, and I have heard/seen nothing about that. Although, I do believe there were a number of new Android builds for the HD2 that came out right about then, are you sure it wasn't one of those that you heard about?

I read about it on the T-mobile forums. The person in question also stated that it was up on this website, but now the thread and all links have been removed/deleted.
Conspiracy?!?
Or BS???

Yeah if they pulled the thread and the links, I'd assume that someone called bs on it and they did what we would do here, and just trashed it. It's possible to that it was in reference to the release of some specific ROM (or ROM build) on that date, but my guess is that it was just someone trying to stir up trouble...you'd be surprised how often people actually do that in this type of environment

Yeah, they quoted that the links were directly from HTC....not uploaded to this site or some other site. I'd post the link, but I'm not sure if that is kosher on this site (or the other).

I just looked over HTC's official support pages for the HD2, and I don't seen any new updates of any type, not that recently anyway. If you have the link you can PM it to me and I'll check it out real quick and see if it's 1) valid, and 2) ok to post here.

K thanks Jimmy, I looked over the thread you sent from t-mobile's forums, and there's no problem posting the link here as far as I know (I'll post it below myself, just in case). But after reading it all I also couldn't find anything more substantial than just what that one member was reporting...which was just mostly that he'd seen "something" on HTC's site related to an update, that was supposedly later pulled down.
I'll note too that any updates for the US T-Mobile version of the HD2 wouldn't come from HTC's site anyway, they're only ever released (officially) through the T-Mobile support page for the phone. So, it's quite possible that even if there IS an update about to be released, it might only be for the euro version of the phone...and since official ROM updates always include a radio, it would likely be incompatible with the US model (i.e. it would brick any one that it was flashed to).
Here's the T-Mobile thread it was mentioned in:

[Q] What is NoDo ?

Hi
What is NoDo?
Thanks
Amedeus

NoDo is an update to WP7 by Microsoft scheduled for March 2011.
Next big update is called Mango and is scheduled Q3/2011. This should bring multitasking an other stuff...

Does that mean that NoDo is 7.7008 as this is an update just released ?

No, as I know, the 7008 is an Update to improve the update capabilities to install further updates.
NoDo is 7389, I think.

So what does NoDO stand for?

Specifically - it is short for 'No Donuts'. Actually, it means nothing - it's just a name. It could just as easily be a reference number.

It is a poke at Android as all of Androids versions have had a name to do with pastry. You know Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, and now Honeycomb. It is just a way for Microsoft to make fun of Android publicly and not get sued for it lol. Look at the name of the next update, Mangoo which is a fruit. Fruit is suppose to be good for you and pastries are not get it? I think it is funny myself.

It's reasonably common knowledge why MS called it NoDo, but the poster asked what it meant, which is nothing really - it could have been called 'charlie', 'R2D2' or 'Hon Lionel Prinkinville III' - it's just a means of identifying it rather than imparting information.

You are correct it is just a means of indentifing the update. But it is a poke at Android and that is the reason Microsoft named/identified it as NoDo. Therefore I equate the NoDo or No Donuts to mean that Microsoft thinks their Windows Phone 7 OS is better than Android. Thus making NoDo mean WP7 is better than Android. I guess it is all how each indevidual looks at it. I just find it very comicial and had to post that as VirtualRenzo obviously had no clue about it. Microsoft and their silly word games

Actually NoDo is a reference to a meeting where a microsoft employee forget to bring donuts when he was supposed to.. it was not a jibe at android.
A quick google will tell you that.

I did a quick google and found this. I also found this qouted straight from the search page.
Mar 22, 2011 … The name is a sarcastic reference to Android update that are all … I did not like the UI as it is bland and rather ugly. … US owners of Samsung's Galaxy S Vibrant didn't get Froyo until 8 …

I could not find a article on the guy forgeting the donuts but I have read about that as well. But don't you think them making fun of that guy is where they got the idea to make fin of Android in the same way. But thos is not worth arguing about it is just a name. But the truth is the truth.

The link you posted said the following:
"rumors have it that windows new firmware name "No Do" is a punt for Androids "doughnut" firmware"
I highlighted the crucial word. The blogger, like you, is only guessing what it means.
Here is the official response by Charlie Kindel, a WP7 developer, via his twitter :

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...................... That is so funny
Do you really take that as proof?
That sounds more like someone covering their butt from lawsuites to me. Somthing somebody said on twitter give me a break.
AlsocI am no blogger never have been never will be. The only reason I sited that link and quote was because you told me to do a quick Google search so I did and that is what I got, ot toke all of like 1 minute to pull that up. I never had a MySpace page, I don't use facebook matter of fact can't stand facebook, and twitter is even worse of a joke and a falacie in my opinion. I don't want to read whatever someone wants to just vomit out, or something they are writting to try to look cool. I try to stay grounded in facts and not fantasy that the corperate world would like for people and strive for people to stay in. I mean really do you think they would publicly admit to the name NoDo being a slight of word against Android. That would be grounds for a huge corparate lawsuite, and maybe even cause Microsoft to lose ownership of therlir precious new OS as a outcome of the lawsuit. At minumal it would cost them a very large amount of money.
Why are people diffending Microsoft anyway? Microsoft has never been called a saint. But the fact still remains call it a rumor or not the truth is the truth. Especially when it is so obviouse that a blind man could see it.
Beleive what you want to beleive, and continue to be blind if you want. I originally posted in thos thread because I thought others might get a good laugh out of it just as I did but I guess I was wrong.

Do people who ask these kinds of questions never heard of google nor searching the forums?

seems like a silly thing to argue about. "haha im right, you're wrong" *points finger menacingly* while the other shakes his fist in the air yelling "i'll get you"

Ok seens you don't think I can use Google (which you are torally wrong) here is a little article I got by using Google. This article does more than just says it is rumored it breaks it down just a little more, and shows it is a direct link to Android with the name NoDo. Funny thing is it was the third link on the first page of links Google pulled up and all I had to type in was NoDo, hmmmmm!
Also you think I can not search XDA, wrong again check out these post from XDA. Link #1, Link #2, and Link #3 And best yet one from you showing you really did not know for sure yourself not long ago.
Also check the link in my sig about "Becoming more familiar with XDA"that is all about how to use search.

OMG GIUZE THIs Is serious buiznes. pleaze continu to argument abowt it. The futur ov fone developmeant is at steak. dis must bee rezolved.

Coming In 2012 is Microsoft Windows Phone 7 "STEAK" why steak? cause steak is F****NG GOOD!!

Unless they update to ManGo soon I think windows phone will go the way of the DoDo

I just wanted to point out that Froyo is Frozen Yogert... Don't forget Gingerbread and Icecream sandwich. Android is named after deserts. The Donut release was about 2.5 years ago... who runs that version?
The name nodo comes off as stupid when you realize they thought android was called pastries.

Excellent blog here

I found a really good 'tongue in cheek' blog with pics for the Galaxy Note here:
http://www.thetechblock.com/articles/2012/samsungs-super-sized-galaxy-note-changed-my-life/
I thought I would share.

It was funny but the rest of the site is terrible. I don't think I've ever seen a more Apple-centric tech blog. I mean wow...they make Engadget and BGR look like Android Central.

you are right, it is Cr-apple-centric, but that's what makes this blog so good, I think it's got some fanboys thinking Android may be cooler

My Location in Note
Hello, I have been using the Note for the past 3 weeks and am still learning new tricks daily thanks a lot to your team. I have been having this problem that whenever i post in facebook it says that i am somewhere in North Carolina whereas i really am in India. The same goes when i use the compass and google sky maps. But when i access the routine google maps, it shows my location correctly. I read somewhere that other galaxy phones had similar problems with the GPS. Please help.

New Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Student Edition

Same Tab, same price, but it includes a keyboard now and USB adapter.
Anyone know what keyboard it is?

Based on the picture of the packaging, it looks like a Samsung keyboard that allows you to dock the tablet in portrait mode.

How much for the keyboard, alone?
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda app-developers app

This is not done.....we are in loss...
Samsung must take care of all users...
And author edit your post that samsung is also giving away usb adapter.........

Dude, seriously? I have already searched. As of yesterday there's no keyboard listed on Samsung's site as being compatible with this tab. I haven't searched the forum as the article was just released yesterday.
Really? Why even comment at all. If you didn't like the thread, just move along.

It is an official Samsung keyboard. Why would you ask a question and then give a completely unwarranted, nasty response, that not only does nothing for this thread, but makes no sense. When did he say anything that related to him insulting you or hating on this thread? Why would Samsung release an official bundle with a keyboard that looks exactly like an official one, but is not the official one? Maybe they didn't release the accessory to force people to buy the bundle? Just because it isn't on their site doesn't mean it isn't coming in the bundle.

Ah crap! Apologies to everyone and especially to imnuts. I checked this thread this morning on my phone and for some reason the only thing I saw was the what was typed in the signature which is just a couple of links to search engine and actually thought it was his post to me. I was really baffled by it at first. But was like why this guy doesn't think I at least searched around about it at first before I posted anything.
Basically I asked a question (and thought) he replied with search engine links. If you click on the links you may see why it bothered me a little and didn't understand why he would post anything at all if that was all he had to say. But now that I am actually on a PC I see his post in its entirety and realize it was just his signature.
So again, I sincerely apologize.
However I did find this keyboard available at foreign website. I'm guessing Hong Kong. I also noticed tha tabs on that site are white.
