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.

Well ****. I got it @ 17 and I've been through both of those phones too. I had to pay for it myself though, but hey, no complaints here good sir.
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

Well my trusty hero which I only had for a a couple of months bit the big one yesterday. I went to the Sprint Store to get another one and all they had in stock for Android was a Moment.
So I guess I won't be around here as much.
This community despite some squabbles is incredible. I've enjoyed and appreciated my time here and the help I got.
The moment isn't a bad phone, I just pretend I'm running DarchDroid.
With a keyboard.

So Long And Thanks For All The Fish!

Well we're gonna miss ya for sure! Hope you can deal with the Moment until you get our EVO (providing that is what you're going to next ) I know we'll see you around......
.....Now you should root the moment and port all our goodness to them You'll be a hero......haha.
The Moment was rooted before the official 2.1 was released. They have it easy. An earlier version of the Samsung software updater let you run unsigned tarballs. So you just use that to install a custom recovery and off you go.
btw, great reference for the title. was one of my favorite books WAAYYY before the movie, they did a HORRIBLE job with Zaphod
good luck you going to sdx?
I prefer to pretend that movie never happened.
Either of them.
Going to miss you gunnyman both here and Android central.. be well.

I'll be here at least until October.... upgrade date.
Argh I miss my Hero already. The themes, the ports of different roms. Just don't happen over there in SDX Land. Someone is working on a Sens UI port though. On the upside. Live Wallpapers work perfectly and so does the 3d gallery at the same time.

So wait they just gave you a moment instead, no questions asked? Im gonna try this today as my hero has been acting up and if i get a replacement it would be my 4th phone already. Sprint told me they hardly ever give you a different model phone.
Here is a website where you can order them and they have them in stock...
http://rivetart.com/get_product?i_item=2465
I ordered two from the lady (Laura) about a week ago and got them fairly quickly and decided to order another four. Unfortunately I had a little problem with her website on the second order, but when I called her she was extremely nice and pleasant and placed the order over the phone for me. They are really cool, if you are a big Android geek, like I am!
Anywho, that's all I got. Back to the shadows
Ray
cool. thanks!
Wow, that's super geeky...and I love it! I may have to pick one up. Thanks for sharing.

could you take a picture so I can see how it looks like before buying one?
thanks
Haha. Sorry I just wanted to share it. I was shaking when I clicked purchase. 739$ is a lot of coin. LOL. But still I am an addict and I'm stoked to get this. I will be a regular on this forum again. XDA FOREVER!!!
Now to find a case. And screen protector.
Welcome to the club! You won't have any regrets
You wont regret your purchase !
my advice is dont jump on any of these roms just yet .. wait a couple more weeks
play with the stock for now .
Enjoy !
Thanks. Will do. I'll probably install Launcher Pro(assuming it works) and honestly can be fine with that with Stock Rom for a while. Waiting to hear how that Rock case works. Might get a TPU one too.

It's always been pretty easy with the zergrush method, even easier now that it's in SuperOneClick.
to the OP - yea, order a case and screen protector ASAP. Some of them you have quite a wait for.

In my experience, I would say definitely. I used Chainfire's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784 I have rooted my phone twice already. The first time was when I was on KJ4(when I first got the phone). Then on KKA(the most recent 2.3.6 update). For the time being, I would suggest to stay stock rooted and wait for a stable ROM.

Congrats on your purchase... I too shelled out a lot of dollar but it seemed worth it for this beast! Had mine a couple of days and it really is epic.
Don't be too put off by initial battery drain, have found doing some simple tweaks can double battery life.
Happy playing!
