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?
off to college and still can't spell... 'threw'
Abilene Christian University.
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.
i spelt threw wrong....woah! your big and bad. big deal go get a life bro. im not wrighting a english paper here dumbass its a forum thread.
that's cool that abilene christian gives out 3gs's. i guess thats how my friend got his. congrats
anyways
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

Wow, OP is so smart that he can go to a university!!! SO? I've got my B.S. already, duh!

I thought it would be interesting to share that it seems like the iPhone 4 suffers also from a far from perfect camera, in this video it appears to have a nasty blue hue in the center of the video.
This isn't intended as an iPhone 4 bashing thread, so please don't waffle on about how you hate the iPhone, it was just an interesting observation I thought I'd share.
There's also a problem with the antenna in the new iPhone.
Let's face it: there is just no perfect phone! ;-)
I am sure that there are plenty of forums for iPhone users to discuss the faults of their phone - so I think that is where this thread should be.
I will show no schadenfreude at the iPhone's problems. As much as I don't like the total control of Apple, they did revolutionise the mobile phone interface.
ugh! Pee stains. I guess someone left a surprise from foxconn. =P

This is just brilliant, Steve Jobs, I salute you!
I've been hearing about the problems with the signal for the last couple of days.
It would appear that Apple are not satisfied with just telling Developers what and how to develope apps for their phone but now they feel the need to tell the end customer how to use the phone as well lol.
A more appropriate name for the iPhone 4 would have been 'iCommunist 4' lol.
On a side note, if the drop in signal is caused by the users hand conductivity, I would suggest just coating the effected area of the phone in a clear lacquer and this should resolve the issue.

Omg, that is simply amazing! Steve even tells you how to hold the phone correctly, "Just avoid holding it in that way." ROFL!
What gets me is how review after review continue to rave how great the new iphone is without a whisker of a thought as to the negatives.
Its time that reviewers got of their high horse and thoroughly reviewed the iphone worts and all.
But wait....its steve jobs baby so any negative would see a defamation case against reviewer...
Not to bash iphone or anything but did you guys hear the crap with that photons thing on the camera technology in new iphone..
The apple fans would have been salivating big time with that hoopla from jobs...
but wait.....
Jobs now wants iphone 4 users to hold their gem in a unique aficionado way...what next?
Simplest solution of mine: DO NOT OWN IT, SO WON'T TOUCH IT AT ALL.
Now, HTC, when will you guys release the GSM version of the Evo 4G, quick!

You do realize this is a HD2 forum, right? And what does this have to do with the HD2? And you say you don't want to hear about people hating the iphone, yet you post this in a WinMo phones forum, where most people probably either hate the iphone or don't care.
It's a bit silly to hate a phone isn't it?

"There's an app for that...."
Got an officemate who was showing off his "upgraded" 3GS with multitasking. Just told them I already had that about 10 yrs ago with my Orang Tanager Windows Mobile. He wasn't even sure if he could close the running apps or just hide it.
My gf walked past the Apple store in Milton Keynes yesterday.
They had barriers outside to cope with 70-80 people.
There was 1 person in the queue!
The shop was open and had only about 10 people inside (including staff) but like an unpopular nightclub, they were forcing people to wait outside in a failed attempt to look like they were busy
What a bargain...
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

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

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.

I like the thought, but
The only thing that's going to get through to them is their pocketbook. If noone buys in or leaves them high and dry then they'll change! Until then the're gonna keep trying to make the most profit they can with minimal overhead(which is the way of every company in the world some worse than others)!
Yep, and the more we yell about it, the better.
Yelling, or threatening, at AT&T isn't going to do any good. If customers left in droves, then yes, AT&T would feel it in their pocketbooks and take action. However, the likelihood of that actually happening is tiny, and not in the numbers necessary to get the point across.
However, what CAN hurt AT&T is bad press. They already suffer from a poor consumer image. I posted over at androidforums.com (I can't post links yet but it's "Twitter hashtag to protest..." in the Atrix 4G forum) about protesting the price. If all of a sudden there was a single, unified twitter hashtag (@'ed at @ATT of course) that reprehended AT&T for their greed then that would garner their attention. Especially if within that tweet we let it be known that what they did is specifically why we're not getting the Atrix.
As lame as it is, a trending hashtag can be a big thing in the eyes of P.R.
The Atrix for $200 w/ two year is reasonable. $500 for the laptop dock is ridiculous. The Atrix for $200 and the laptop dock for $300 w/ 2gb plan and tethering is simply absurd.
I was thinking of staying with AT&T when the Atrix was announced at CES, but I may be looking to switch to Verizon now and picking up the Bionic.

In a roundabot way, yes, I disagreed with you while agreeing with you.
I think if everyone yells their own random thing at AT&T and makes their own random hashtags then it will just be lots of white noise.
If there's a sense of organization and unity, easily brought about by an emerging "Trending Topic" (thru hashtags), then I think AT&T will be a lot more receptive to hearing it. But yeah, we're on the same side here. Sorry if I came off as dissenting--I didn't mean to.
Does anyone have any good ideas for a hashtag?

this morning at wing bowl I stumbled into the stadium and saw an at&t booth by the door. i walked over and started yelling at them about how the dock pricing was bull**** and stuff. i remember it becoming a decent convo with one of the reps there, but it may have just been me drunkenly yelling at the dude, idk.
either way, i literally yelled at at&t about the dock pricing.
oh and i asked if they knew how much the hd multimedia dock would cost (standalone) and they couldnt give me a price
Excellent move Now if any of those reps actually had the power to change any of this then we'd be on our way. I still like the phone but I am sure going to wait it out now to see what else comes around. Man, I wish I would have taken off for the wing bowl.

That's brilliant. I think yelling at any AT&T Employees is great! AS LONG AS you make sure you let them know that you are not yelling at them, the employee, but you are very upset with the company and that they should report to their superior about it.
Gosh, I have no idea why I'm so riled up about a phone and its accessory. Granted, my birthday is right around the corner and this news completely derailed what I had planned. Oh well. I just hope that we can cause enough uproar so that there might be real action taken.

Well I posted a not so nice comment on the AT&T Facebook page about the pricing of the dock and their lack of concern for their customers that keep them in business, and their already horrible reputation. It would be good for all of us to post something there to make them notice.
I did not want the laptop docking station. I have maxed out my Captivate....it needs more ram and more speed which is what the Atrix has. I was going to be the first to get it, now I have to think about it and look at other options so I can't say for sure what I will do other than post more comments on their Facebook page.

That's odd... people normally don't even notice how big the phone is when I'm talking on it... (possibly cos it's mostly hidden by my hands ).
People do, however, notice its size if I'm using it for other stuff like messaging or browsing...
OT: I'm really happy Samsung has been pushing this phone into the mainstream so much. It's an awesome device. And it'll be even greater with all the development support that comes from being a mainstream success.

Not a big fan of the commercial to be honest.
They sure didn't say much for a 90 second spot.
But I guess the whole point is to get people talking about the note, and then the Note will take it from there.
Is it this one?

Yah I was really looking forward to it too, but was a bit disappointed. Not even a mention of the 5.3in screen, just the stylus. The ad missed the mark IMO.

Dont let a Samsung employee hear you calling it a stylus
I hope they do something outrageous about it like it having a dual personality, a phone and a tablet, and it falls in love with an iPhone and follow it across the country. Oh wait, they already did that.
EDIT: ARRGH, my post is too late.
GIANTS won! Yeaaaaaa
Thought it was great! Really makes people think about a bigger better option, the Note. No hard sell just fun and entertainment, better than the half time show. The next three ads will do the rest. Haven't met anyone yet that didn't want my Note.
I won't say the Giants won as much as they just got lucky.
Waste of 9 million bucks. Terrible Imo
From the giant: Galaxy Note
why what do employees refer to it as?
Wish the ad showed some of the features of note, rather than people screaming around
Was really hoping for a much better spot outta Samsung on this one. Thought their previous commercials were great. Although i will say, i had 3 friends text me saying they saw a commercial for my phone.

^^^ This. If I didn't know what the ad was for (and I hadn't been following the Note for months now) I would think it was just another Android handset with that pointy stylus thing that Steve Jobs said was bad. Not a single thing special about it. Didn't feel like 90 seconds; seemed like it was over and I was still waiting for some tangible "here's why this thing is awesome" moment(s). Oh well. As the Note has done elsewhere in the world, I'm sure it'll sell itself on the merits as people start using them.
The add was lame. I was sold on the specs alone before the thing was ever announced (just rumored) ... Of course we have to remember, most people aren't nerds like us...
The downside to it's success is that, unlike the Dell Streak I'm writing this on, I wont be the only person I know who has one! When I whip out the Streak I always realize that no one has ever seen a phone like this. That is about to end...
The upside is of course that the development from this community, and the updates from Samsung should be great.
