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

I watched the video dude neary put me to sleep.
Unless you can get paid apps for free then Rooting the phone useless.. atleast thats what im thinking

The whole purpose of rooting your phone is to install your own ROM or install any apps outside the market place.

Actually after rooting I'm getting better signal in some places.Don't know how much rooting has to do with signal strength.
 
^^^Thanks for the heads up. I'll see what I can do with this video and hopefully it helps me more through this speed bump im facing before I get my HERO on. Propz again.
 
So i found a site to get any APP for Android for free.. Now im happy i aint gonna pay for shit now..:dance::dance:

Next order of business.. is there a express version to Rooting the phone?? or you gotta do all those steps seen in the youtube video??

(i still dont see the big benefit of rooting)
 
I'm gettn a little confused, so after I root the phone what do I do? install rom, or that radio thing ya'll keep talkn about??

Also some say they have tested the 1 click root and it's all good?

So all u guys cosigning Hero, none of ya'll use bluetooth? It seems like Hero is the way too go, but I can't use my bluetooth with it. Can somebody give me a link to a stable rom that updates a lot that uses bluetooth.

I currently have a 1gb sd card, is that good enough to run a rooted rom?

thanks

what site is that?? im looking for a working HELLO AIM.. cant find 1 for shiiett!! thanks bruh! :cool:
 
Maybe Creed or GadgetMan can answer this. I'm planning on getting a myTouch. I assume that because it has the same specs as the Hero it should be easier to get a Rom on there correct??

Will all the other hoopla (partitioning and adding a new radio) be needed with a myTouch the way its needed with the G1?

Any help will be appreciated.

I have no experience with the mytouch. I assume since the specs are better than the G1 u should be fine. My next phone is either the morrison, an unlocked sholes or the samsung or the g1 v2 in oct haven't really looked at the stuff out now...i do know the tmo pulse (the hawauii phone) is dropping end of sept or early oct n its specs r very nice too.

Where can I find some of the phones that your talking about. I've never even heard of the G1 v2. I just saw something about the pulse but I haven't been able to get the specs on it yet. I just want something that runs smooth. I thought that the G1 was stellar till I bought my wife the myTouch and messed with it a bit and its alot smoother than I expected.

600 unlocked unless u go to sprint in a couple months...why do that if u arent a sprint customer?
 
AGAIN I ASK WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT HTC HERO?

IS THAT ALL YA'LL RISKING BRICKING YA PHONE FOR?

The interface. Likelyhood of bricking an android is low. I havent done it I'm waiting for oct or nov 4 an upgrade either a moto with blur or a sony with rachael or if htc makes a new interface for g1 v2
 
Sony Ericsson Xperia X5 (Nadine): Android Concept

by Rob Jackson on August 24th, 2009

First of all, the obligatory bucket of salt should get a few extra helpings with this post. The Xperia X1 is a great device, the X2 is rumored to be its WinMo wielding successor and if we’re lucky enough, the Android-based Xperia X3 rumor will pan out too. But a Phandroid reader (Thanks Jeff!) has spotted mention of another Android Xperia - the Xperia X5, codenamed Nadine:
xperia-x5.jpg

Let’s get all the misguided hope out of the way first. These are merely “concept” pictures… and pretty poor ones I might add. Looking at these images SCREAMS fake, not to mention the X2 and X3 haven’t been announced and the rumor mill would have seemingly skipped over the X4.
The image and info comes from a Korean website that seems reputable ( http://tech.sina.com.cn/) and in their article discussing the Xperia X5 Nadine they acknowledge that the concepX5 “looks more concept” and the “existence of this product is still doubtful” but if they compelled to post the rumor we thought you should know - even if solely for entertainment purposes.
If you speak Korean feel free to help us translate the original article, otherwise here it is translated to English:
In 2008, Sony Ericsson X1 released shortly after they begin to have the news XPERIA series, X2, X3 be followed by X5, everyone will X5 this product conceptualization, especially as to the function of the current configurations can imagine be added to this phone. In 2008 the old experience, 8 million pixel camera regarded as the top offers, but in 2009, that the legendary X5 models have been equipped with a 12 million pixel camera.
Last year, more than three-dimensional bar design using Sony Ericsson X5, the new X5 design looks more concept. While the Sony Ericsson X2 seems to release more backward, but the X5 existence of this product is still doubtful. The latest X5 will adopt the sliding cover design and full-keyboard design, the overall design direction was continued XPERIA family tradition.
Sony Ericsson X5 adopted the Android system, rather than the XPERIA series usually Windows Mobile system, the fuselage at least 3.5-inch screen, built-in 12 million-pixel camera will be able to support the auto-focus, the Sony Ericsson introduced idou later, the problem seems to be not so difficult for a solid line. It can be seen from the design, Sony Ericsson X5 will be available in three colors. As for the authenticity of this phone, and when released are still unknown market.
Supposing the X5 is somehow real it would be a beast of a phone indeed:
  • 3.5-inch touchscreen
  • Sliding Full QWERTY Keyboard
  • 12MP camera with Auto-Focus and XENON Flash
  • HD Video Recording
  • Android
  • 3 Colors: (Chrome Silver, Ocean Blue, Sunny Orange)
  • Sony Ericsson AppStore
Don’t get your hopes up but that is what the poorly rendered and MS-paintified concept images proclaim. Mention of the Sony Ericsson AppStore is an interesting idea. Will Sony Ericsson act as an intermediary and use Android Market to fuel their own Application Platform? I hope not.
Then again why dive into that debate when the chances of this rumor panning out are a long, long, long shot at best? We can still hope *Crossing Fingers* but please forgive my reluctance to add the X5 to our list of Rumored Android Phones.


if this phone is real it would be sick as hell. I'm still waiting for the HTC G1 v.2 to show itself, but the other players are making it hard as hell to wait....................
 
cant fuck with it if its not the full app market....i got apps i like that i doubt sony can replace. hot phone tho...

I'm not to sold on the concept. Good looking specs though.

I like what I'm seeing from the Pulse though. The 2gb internal memory alone has me feeling it. I have seen a release date for it yet. Has anyone seen a date for a USA release for the Pulse yet.

all the sites I've checked don't have a US release date yet. I just hope they don't cripple the phone spec wize when it hits the states.................

*edit* has anyone heard anything new about the HTC G1 v.2?.........................

Creed saying mentioning it the other night is the only reason I know that thing exists. I tried to put my google skills to the test and I was unable to find a mock up or anything. Even the articles that I saw on it were kind of sketchy. Is this an actual phone or is this a rumor?

its on the walmart tmo roadmap but other than that its being kept a secret its codename is bigfoot...

If the phone still exists they've put the clamps on any info. I may be rocking the morrison, the galaxy, or the pulse by october if they don't come with anything competitive.......................
 
Would one of you fuck niggas please post the website where you can get the G1 apps for free and stop acting like a faggot ass bitch.
I need that Documents To Go app.
This thread should be about sharing information yet a couple of you bitch ass niggas insist on acting like hoes. Fuck outta here.

I'mma get a morrison if the samsung houdini(supposedly the galaxy with a physical keyboard)... htc is gonna come out with it especially after their att offering was cancelled. With the instinctQ and the sholes they gotta come out with it.

I hear good things about the moto androids n the blur interface(supposedly it makes the webOS cards look slow lol)...we'll see...the morrison is appealling...great specs and a keyboard plus donut aka android 2.0...and for 100 reportedly...i wont even have to use my upgrade so if a hotter android comes out for tmo i can use my upgrade on that.

dude just hit torrents or look for android apps .apk in google it will come up

matter fact here

Do you think that the google tagged HTC phones (or google tagged phones period) will hurt the carries?? Pepople are pushing hard not just because of the OS per say but because of the UI that these phones (like Hero) use. My interest is getting peeked about the Moto UI just off of Creed's description.
 
Finally got bold enough to ROOT my G1 and im loving it. The wifi tether is better than paying 60$ a month to sprint for a mobile card.

Next i need to install cyanogen 4.0.4. And they have an auto update app for this as well
