G1 Owners Unite! The Official G1/Android Thread..News/Apps/Features All In Here

Royal u may want to wait to get a cliq at least until early 2010...
http://www.androidguys.com/2009/11/02/gsm-droid-caught-on-film-headed-to-t-mobile/

and the xperia x10 apparently runs on tmobile's bands.

I would stick with tmo but after the outage today and other stuff i'm gonna get a jump on the droid and use the outage as my excuse since honestly i have been gettin cut calls and no texts for the past few weeks but i thought it was just my g1 now i see its tmo's network...and i dig the the droid's 80's look.

but it looks as tho you may have two great choices coming to you.

The touch pro 2 is gonna be windows mobile :smh:

The Touch HD 2(?) will be on T-mobile and it will be android.



that xperia x10 looks nice. The touch pro 2 was nice, but since its on windows mobile, i can't fk with it, i'm strictly Android!

Touch pro hd 2, 3.8 inch screen!!!!!!!! the tmo site says Novemeber 09! maybe their gonna do like verizon did with the droid and just drop it! I got 2 have it, hope they drop it and don't wait until 2010.
 
I havent had any problems.

that's y i like cyanogen, apps2sd is automatic, i didn't have to install that radio thing or the spl or whatever it's called. I think most on xda agree cyan is the most smoothest running rom, but hero and a couple of others have the coolest widgets and things. the bluetooth i'm referring to is the regular bluetooth that goes in your ear, i think the first couple of hero's didn't allow it but I was wondering if u can use the bluetooth now, since its updated a few times since then. the google experience is the programs Cyanogen isn't allowed to include with his roms anymore. Google Maps, Youtube, Market, Gtalk, etc...

I get off work and there's an x in my bar, no service, i reboot and all that bs. No luck, so I rush to the tmo store since they close at 7. i'm thinking i need a new sim card or something, there's like 15 people in the store, dude is telling us, servers are down all across America (it was about 6:50 when i got there. While i was there i decided to take a look at the cliq, since i hadn't been inside a tmobile store in some months. Next to the click there's this phone HTC Pro 2, now that shyt looks more like my speed. I wasn't impressed with the cliq but the htc pro 2 looks nice. I know i'm probably super late because i think i've heard other people mention the htc pro. So how long has this phone been out, it's Android right? Guess i'll do a search on the htc pro 2. I was feeln that one, but the damn price is ridiculous, $399 with a 2 year warranty, $599 without.........................If i hear good reviews on it, i'll fk with that if tmo isn't droppn anything new.

Nah sorry bro, Ive already read the articles about it. The punk ass HTC CEO has already stated

HTC CEO says he could but won't make HD2 an Android phone, has to take care of Windows Mobile

In an interview given to Forbes, HTC CEO Peter Chou spoke pretty candidly about the widespread desire for an Android version of the HD2, and says the phone won't be finagled thusly. "Technically, we could make the HD2 an Android phone, but I have to take care of Windows Mobile," said Chou, after which we imagine popped in a stick of Juicy Fruit and didn't offer to share any with the rest of the class. Of course, this doesn't rule out a handset with similar specifications to the HD2, like the Dragon, matching DROID's push toward Android 2.0 and modern hardware, but it seems to imply that at least it won't be called "HD2," and probably won't look much like it either. Chou did admit that Windows Mobile innovation has been "a little slow" and that interest is declining, and says HTC is "working hard on these kinds of products to get excitement about Windows Mobile back." He didn't hold back on Google, however, saying that some of its actions can be "destructive" but that "we've worked with Microsoft for 13 years ... I also believe we can work with Google for a long time."

I was planning to actually buy that phone and Ive been telling my ppl that use sprint to hold out on getting the hero and get this phone. Guess ill be telling them to buy the Samsung Moment instead
 
Has anyone ran across a link for smartdialer.. the FULL version?? Everything that I have found on androidappz and other forums has been the trial version even though a few were listed as being the full versions. Thanks in advance.

Shoot I'm jumping to the Droid Friday...thanks to the outtage I havent received txts since 3pm yesterday...I'm tryin to leave without havin to pay the eft...
 
Got the Droid and it is glorious! Fast as fuck too I'mma be setting and customizing it all night...BIG LEAP from my G1 and VZW is pretty good too
 
my text service and my data is spotty...I have rss on my g1...shit only updated once today...I have it set for every 2 hrs. and yea no texts in or out....thats unacceptable

When my incoming calls, and text were spotty it was when my 3g coverage was horrible. This was a year ago. I turned off 3g and the problem stopped, it sucks being on edge, i kept trying with no luck. Tmobile said they had a ticket out in my area to resolve the problem, also they said towers were being built. I know when i first rooted my phone my 3g started going good! no more of the problems i had before. To this day I don't know if the problem was solved by me rooting or if it just happens that the same day I rooted tmobile fixed a 3g reception problem in my area............hmmm, i don't know, but i've been good since then! Are u rooted or using factory?


dang when i reported the touch pro hd2 would be comn November 2009, i got the link from endgaget to tmo's website, i didn't notice it was t-mobile.uk:smh::angry:

some sites were reporting the touch pro hd2 would be android but I see its windows.

ok time for u to leave sir:angry:
get out this thread:angry:

naw just trippn, did a lot of apps already come on the phone or was it like the g1 and didn't come with much when it was first released? I know the internet is much faster since its verizon but is performing task a lot faster? Also a friend was wondering if it had microsoft exchange? I know that screen is dope!

Meanwhile here in tmobileville we're stranded. After lookn into the motorolla cliq some more, I think I might just stick to my dam G1, that screen on the cliq isn't impressive, then that cluttered home screen, then its sort of coming across as the 2009 sidekick. I'm not impressed so far with the cliq, but I do want a new phone and it must be Android.

If anybody hears any facts on a new tmobile Android phone, be sure to post it. I'm also a little worried that this motorolla cliq might be a big bust as for not selling much and that might fk tmo up financially and it might hurt us waiting on a new phone. Because it seems like their expecting big numbers from the cliq---by them releasing it in time for the holidays and by them promoting it pretty heavy.
 
wait til january Tmo should be getting 2.0 androids they cant afford to fall behind...the cliq might be a bust...peep this if u take the even more plus plan its 400something dollars if u wait 4 ur upgrade its 200 but with another 2 yrs...the cliq is a good phone but overpriced. if I had to stay on tmo i woulda got the blackberry 9700 and switched to verizon in august. luckily i got out n the price of a nw cliq got me a droid n stuff.
tmo is cool but they sneak stuff in n dont train the employees well enough.
but wait til january might be getting the x10 or the sholes or both.

the droid came with madd apps in the store the ones i use need to be upgraded to 2.0 tho...the performance is sick...yes it has exchange 4 personal use no extra feee for biz use extra 15...
but man o man the vzw vs the tmo networks are no contest vzw all day...wow

not into blackberry's, especially a non touch screen, i think the 9700 isn't touch, i could be wrong, with the exception of verizons touch screen blackberry's, blackberry reminds me of an 80s Benz, good phone, but the design slightly changes, and I can't tell an 83 from an 89..............ok, bad analogy but to me blackberry hasn't done much innovation in the past couple of years, there screens aren't big and they don't have many apps, by the way, I think i'm strictly Android right about now. I'll look into this cliq a little more since you say it's a good phone, but shyt I can't get any info on the phone because all they keep promoting is the fact that it comes with myspace, facebook, and twitter. That's it, that's all they keep promoting, that and those widgets that hog up the entire home screen.:smh::smh::smh:

good stuff playa, i'll give tmo to January or February, if they haven't upped their game, i'll have to figure a way out of my contract and head to verizon. Verizon will be gettn 4g in many areas in the next couple of months, then they keep droppn hot phones. I love tmobile prices but if business starts poppn a lil more i'll have to make that move. 1 other question, so is the market the same? do the same apps that work on the g1 work for the Droid?
 
rumor has it VZW is dropping the 1st android video phone too...they are truly making android epic...

yeah the market is the same u get an additional verizon section that has a my verizon app just like the my tmobile app except it uses the browser but u could pay online that way too.

yeah the way the promoted the cliq kept pissing me off. they r making it into a tween/chick/attention whore device i have a twitter but i dont need all that info the cliq had...and besides 2.0 brings most of those functions also including an integrated fb app. The Droid to me looks like something a person who doesn't care about social norms would use got a throwback design with a strong engine and the physical keyboard isn't as bad as ppl say...i can see why moto didn't bring it to tmo...this phone is powerful and woulda been a waste on tmo now tmo is upgrading their network but for now they can't rock the powerful devices just yet

Bro you need to download this

Startup Auditor: http://www.4shared.com/file/148465012/a021e327/comvesperaNovusappStartupAuditor.html

Prolly will help speed up ya boot time if running shit like that...lol.

And im assuming you prolly gonna root ya shit anyways once its doable

And my bad, I meant CDMA and as in they dont use sim cards like ATT and TMO. So us TMO users cant get a unlocked Droid and use it with another company...but if you were on sprint on the other hand...lol
 
oh shit...i just replied to a text via voice in an app from the mega pack ahahahahaha....this is too sweet

Whats the name of this app or the d/l link???..I need this :yes:

I got the droid friday...My 1st android phone, so needless to say I am overly impressed.:dance:

there's two I use handcent(new) it has voice to text and the other one voice text does same thing but handcent is a lil more accurate. i dig it
handcent replaces the stock messenger whereas voice text adds voice to the stock one.
 
thanks,

i may not root now i'm reading google is working on built in apps2sd with 2.1 or 2.2 if i root that'd be my main reason if it comes built in an update my need to root isn't needed anymore i can use a home replacement or keep stock look if need be.

u could get the euro version but it will only be 2g here in the states...tmo may be dropping the keboardless version tho...man this device is a beast...

Thanks for the refer. Handcent is nice....pretty accurate, though the Quick Compose funtionality isn't working for me. I press and hold the Search button and choose Handcent from the pop_up menu but nothing happens. I couldn't find Voice Text in the market. Is that the official name?

quick compose has to be enabled. handcent has a lot of sub sections its there. if not unistall then reinstall.

it should be voice text its in the mega pack from page 18 on here i believe but I got my pack from another site.
 
i think after getting a used g1 and looking over all of this today that you have to have flash to watch zshare for example and that isn't available unless you root your phone?

Yea i was reading about that as well the other day. If they did that then the only reason i would root is for my tether reason and maybe themes. I dont fuck with phones without a keyboard man. Touchscreens are nice and all but i got big hands....lol.

I used to have Handcent[new] but uninstalled it after so many force closes and other misc happenings. It was tryna do TOO many things with 1 app. SMS popup now has the same features and Handcent with less fillings...lol

yeah, if i bought the droid i don't think i'd root right a way. Your not out of space yet, i doubt developers have came up with a nice package of apps and tweaks yet. I'd just enjoy the factory shyt for a few months, then by that time, when u root, it'll feel like u just bought a new phone.




I haven't been checkn for any new g1 apps or os, anybody found anything new?
