This poor N1

Got this thing in at work today. It was an AT&T version. Scavenged the speaker for a coworker and LED board for a spare. but holy hell, this thing had a rough life. looks like it was roughly taken apart before I got to it. Makes me kind it sad. :-(

MURDER!!!! Why would anyone do such a poor thing to such a helpless device?

How did you get it?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

the people that butcher these things can suck it imo.

imo we should have pulled the display just for S's&G's...

Is that huge piece of copper part of the flex circuit, or just a heat spreader under the battery?

Are you selling any parts? If that AMOLED/Digitizer is still apart (never been replaced/pulled apart) im willing to buy it.
I replaced mine, and the screen keeps getting dust under it. Once the digitizer is replaced, it's hard to keep dust from getting under it.

Both myself and crusher work for a used electronics reseller... its already on ebay... its broken though so you might be able to get it for cheap. The bids start @ $1
And no the diaplay/digitizer havent been separated.

Pm me the ebay link please.

me too please, I want the housing

Wow that was a powerful hack, what rom did you flash? Did you even do a nandroid backup before flashing? What recovery did you use?

I can PM you the eBay listing once it actually goes active. Don't really think there is anything usable from it. Whoever sent it in DESTROYED it.

Pretty much everything. Most of the ribbon connectors were messed up, all of the mounting screws and hardware were gone, wouldn't charge or power on, and it was just generally beat to hell.

Just got my 'Dork' kit from today

Just got my Dork Gizmo kit with a Hard Shell Case for travelling and an HDMI cable,USB cable and a key hook? Weird. (Suppose to say from 'Amazon' dunno why the hell it didnt appears as i typed it.)
Here's the link if anybody is curious.
http://www.amazon.com/Gizmo-Dorks-S...142S/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1307720366&sr=8-6
Im very happy because its a very good price!
I got everything now except the Skinomi which I intend to buy.
Even got 32GB Kinsgston.
If anyone has a question please shoot.
Cheers!

I got the same hardshell so far I love it! Keep us posted on the 32gig card I'm still saving pennies for that one lol.

Well I use my 32GB card today and its real nice to have aloooot of space.
And it works fine! Speedy, Kingston class 4.
I love the hardshell too, its a liiiittle bit hard to close the hard shell with the protective casing on but still it works! And that makes it awesome for travel.
Next thing is Skinomi screen protector and im done!
Loving my Acer more and more everyday!
Just wish they would make a keyboard dockstation so one can have the option of using it as a notebook and of course double the battery time or more since the dock would have batteries too.
The one they released not is a f-ing joke...

I bought this package from the suggestions here. I love the hdmi and the usb cables. I had thought that the case would be a tight fit, but loving the price and package.

I have the standard Acer gel case. Do you think there is enough room for the tablet to fit in the hard case with the gel case on it? It isn't thick. I really like that hard case.

I would think that you can fit the gel case in the hard case. Its pretty roomy, and I think its a little TOO roomy for my taste

I use it with the official Acer case INSIDE the other Hard Case(the one that look identical to Ipads) and I have no problem with too much room, in fact its borderline to tight but it feels sturdy and safe.

Give me another 10 hours. I am not near a computer
opps. Just figured out I can upload it from my phone. Hope that helps.

Yes I believe they do, you can just proceed to checkout when you are in Amazon after adding it to your basket and then you can confirm if you can receive it in your country.
But I believe it should be able to be delivered worldwide yes.

From what I read on amazon this one is heavily counterfeited and those suck. If its not from targus it probably sucks. I'll have to see if this one is real though lol

For $5 bucks I bought one. I'll report back once I receive it. Thx

I just use a hotdog. Then eat it when I'm done.
Licking the screen works too if you really want to impress the ladies.

I take notes at meetings and at school. So I'm gonna give this a try. We really lack a good note taking app though. Tab notes is the best so far and its not that great compared to one note.

I'd really love to use a stylus for sketching - could care less for note taking. But sketching would be great - only problem is, the tab isn't all that responsive - I mean, don't get me wrong - it's great. It's just wasn't built with that kind of functionality in mind... Which is unfortunate.
Still though, I'll get one eventually.

You know, I thought the same thing. I would draw something and the line would follow after. Using tabnotes it doesn't do that. I was looking for a mod to increase screen polling or responsiveness but nothing.

I ordered one, still no shipping info and no response to my email, oh well glad I paid with PayPal, if I don't hear anything in a few days, I will file a complaint with PayPal.

Mine shipped a day or two ago. These daily deal sites are slow.

The the BEST I've used.
DAGi P504. Don't have a link just Google. Transparent tip is mounted on a spring so no matter what angle your holding it, it will make contact. Very precise. I like it a lot better than the old style which you hat to hold at only one angle & much better than the eraser type.

Pointed tip Stylus?
Does anyone know of a stylus with a pointed rubber tip like the HTC Flyer one only usable on the A500? I would like one for some of the drawing programs and just can't get used to the rounded oversize points on most generic stylus.
Thanks

That's a nice stylus. I wonder if it does.

http://www.ipaddoodler.com/article/big-ipad-stylus-review
I know that says iPad but it's a great quick run down of a few stylus (styli?). I am really considering the Ostylus or the Dagi one, but they have a new model the 506 with a slightly different design.

According to newkidd Sprint should be able to repair it for free without replacing it since the screen and the phone itself works perfectly and I have TEP.

That sucks man, but at least it's just cosmetic. Hopefully Sprint gets it fixed up for you nice and quick.

I do, but the app wasn't installed, so it doesn't work :'(
And I tried to install plan b, I read lifehackers post on it awhile ago, but these people were expert thieves, they changed the service to another phone, and tried to make a purchase with it almost immediatly. Luckily, the charge was canceled and I ended service for the phone, then they sent me the new phone I'm currently using.
I would have loved it to work, but alas, sad. My only concern now is if there is a way to deauthorize that phone from my google account. Other than that, as soon as I get around to rooting this thing, I'll be fine.

Ouch!! That looks painful.. Poor shift!

I broke my screen digitizer a few weeks ago. Luckily I was able to buy one off ebay and replace it myself. The only thing that I did wrong was I didn't really reglue it down to the frame, so dust and dirt has been getting underneath the screen (which you can see behind bright backgrounds). BTW, if anyone breaks theirs, here's a great video on how to take apart the whole phone.

Spontaneous screen crack sg3

Hiya guys I've had the most interesting thing happen to my .sg3 yesterday. The only way to explain it is as a spontaneous screen crack! My phone just cracked by itself!! Yes without a lie! It's the most microsceptic crack I've seen and after a few minutes looking at it i decided to measure the location and it's exactly in the middle of the panel! No one believes me and people think I'm stupid. i was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue? I've done some research and have found that other Samsung phones have done this but there isn't allot of info about it.

Well from what info I've gathered on the web it is very rare!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA

probably because of the curved glass. Curved things tend to bend when they reach certain point. the gorilla glass 2 being thinner than its predecessor should crack easier especially when bent. Send it back to Samsung, the crack seems natural and is a Samsung fault rather
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe you. My friends AMOLED screen crached but the glass was perfectly fine on his Droid RAZR. It was extremely weird and did not make any bit of sense.

Well see the thing is i didn't even move from my desk at work when this happened! It's so so strange. What would be the best way of contacting Samsung about this , because atm I've talked to official Samsung repair people and they all say I'm crazy and 3 just told me I'm a liar and that i broke it on purpose. (As if!)

You should go to the 3 store and show them the device because there is no way anyone can make a perfect straight crack like this on purpose/accidentally.
