I was very interested in selling my nexus and before I did I wanted go get my fellow nexus one user's opinion. Why should I keep this phone? I was looking into the evo by sprint. The screen size amazes me. If I was to sell my nexus one how much would I be able to sell it for? What are some good reasons to keeping my nexus one? I love this phone but I have it stuck in my head that there is something better out there. Please convince me not to sell it.

If you want to switch carriers that's one thing. But on GSM carriers there really is no worthy upgrade till the G2, but even then... A stock 4" phone is needed, the Galaxy S is is more of a side-grade IMO.
The dev level upgrades are one thing that would make me keep this phone for at least mid way through the next year. I like the fact that Google will upgrade this phones' software for a while at least and we don't have to wait for hacked roms or carrier OTA's.
Hold onto it until the Dell Thunder! I am.

Especially if you have the ATT version. You know ATT nexus is selling for 1500 bucks on ebay right now for sealed brand new ATT nexus one. Wish I bought a few when I had the chance.

On Ebay Canada, used Nexus ones (ATT) are going for $500-1100,
Looking to sell mine for $450, is that a good price?
Definately keeping mine forever. It's more than just a phone.

There´s n better phone out there (for me )...just bigger screen phones, probably better screen, better multitouch...but that´s all just too little to convince me!
After my Nexus One, it has to be a step forward, like having 1.5 or 2 Ghz
A few points I'd like to share with you.
First, the Nexus One being what it is is reason enough not to get rid of it. It is a classic, it is the only HTC device available with vanilla Android and high end hardware, and everything else has some flavor of garbage depending on the manufacturer. It really is the modern day Google phone, their baby, and the device that gets all the updates before everything else.
I typically sell my old phones to pay for most of the cost of my new ones, but with the Nexus One, I'm pretty sure I'm going to use it until it dies and still keep it to remember how great it was after that.
As for switching to Sprint for the Evo, I would also wait until something truly worthy of replacing your Nexus One comes along (and on a better network). The added features of the Evo aren't worth the poor battery life and slower general operation when using it.
For my next upgrade, I'm going to wait for something with a higher-than-WVGA resolution screen, xenon flash, and something that can truly live up to the Nexus One's legacy.
^ Agree...Won't be selling my classic N1 for some time! And will never go to Sprint
if i buy a phone which is from att or tmobile will i be able to use it i m dubai (u.a.e)
I was getting excited. Upgrade time and was hoping to get the HD7 especially now that Mango is about. But was informed by HTC (Leaf) in South Africa that they will not be launching it in SA. What do you suggest? I don't want an Android or iPhone.
Thanks Calli
You can always try to buy a sim unlocked HD7 from a different market. Try searching on e-bay or other mobile sights that sell unlocked phones. You might not get it at a contract price but youll have an HD7 nonetheless.
Great idea. Thanks, but will I be able to upgrade to Mango offically when it is launched?
What will be the country region?
Are you pleased with yours?
Yes. You will be able to upgrade to Mango once its officially released. And if you cant wait that long you always upgrade to Mango BETA but I would wait until the official release that way all the kinks are taken care off. The country region of the phone you buy will greatly depend on where you buy your unlocked phone. It doesnt hurt to ask before you buy your phone.
I am VERY pleased with my HD7. I was very close to buying an iPhone 4 but at the last minute it bought the HD7. As of right now I couldnt be any happier. I absolutely love this phone. I cant wait until the Mango is officially released so I can upgrade.
You've been a great help, thanks. Yes Mango sounds awesome . I cant wait to upgrade. I had bought a HTC generic cradle(CR G300) for my current Touch Pro 2, with replaceable inserts. I'm now hoping that I could find one for the HD7 so that I dont have to buy a new cradle
Youre welcome. Im glad I was able to help. If youre going to be looking for a cradle for the HD7 try looking here. Maybe youll find something. =]

Thanks once again. Saw them. With my current phone Touch Pro 2 I use a very useful app called Rhodium Keyboard controller. Allows me to add extra functions to buttons such a long press to switch on Bluetoooth etc. Do you think it would be useful with the HD7 if it was available?
was considering a droid 4 or razor as my next phone..
Dont really know much about it only the glossy adverts and such
and want to know what people think of the droid 4 who already own it.
Any descent custom roms/kernels?
battery life?
does it get hot?
official updates?
is the keyboard any good?
sound quality in phone calls/ speaker phone?
screen quality?
wish you bought something else?
- For D4 we have pretty good ICS leaks, I`m on of the latest leaks, and it`s stable and very comfortable to use.
- Battery life - good enough, better than on my Droid 3 (I saw that there is a fix for WiFi to improve the battery life, so should be even better)
- Not hot for me, but I`m not using this phone for games.
- Official update of ICS (4.0.4) is planned for Q3 2012, so should be delivered to our phones in next few monthes. I hope after ICS we will get JB.
- Keyboard is terrific and awesome. I had all Droids from Motorola and keyboard for Droid 4 is the best keyboard I`ve seen before.
- sounds quality is good, from my point of view - the same as on my Droid 3, so no issues here. With the speaker phone don`t see any issues as well.
- Screen is good, sharp enough and looks like better than screen for Droid 3 (at least in comprasion). But it`s not AMOLED...
- Since I`m using keyboard smartphones for work and I really need hardware keyboard (e-mails, messages, etc.) - Droid 4 is the best choice for me. If you don`t need keyboard then I would suggest to take a look to the Motorola Razr.
Mainly agree with MrAdvo, with a little less positiveness about the screen. I came from the Droid 2 Global (now an ancient phone) and that screen was much better. This shows when scrolling fast or in some animated games (such as Drop). But it's certainly usable.
I paid full price (to keep unlimited data) and I don't currently regret my decision! Waiting for official ICS so it can be global.
I went with the D4 over the razr and I'm glad I did. I work for vzw and constantly get customers coming in who hate the battery life on the razr. I have had no customers complaining about their droid 4.

Any descent custom roms/kernels? - So far we're stuck with stock kernels due to the locked bootloader but if what I've seen in the dev forums is true, that will be fixable soon with kexec. Hashcode has also ported both CM9 and AOKP to the stock kernel so that should cover most people's needs. Personally I'm an AOKP fangirl, but CM9 is good too!
battery life? - I'm currently in the phase where I'm constantly tinkering with it all day even though I'm supposed to be working, and in the worst case I still had 16% left by the time I went to bed at 4AM! Currently it's 3:27AM and the battery is still at 68% I'd say that was pretty good.
does it get hot? - Not that I've noticed
official updates? - Still waiting for ICS, regular leaks, as discussed already.
is the keyboard any good? - Yes, providing you're not using it to admin linux/unix/cisco type gear as some of the more obscure punctuation such as curly brackets is not on the keyboard and has to be accessed through menus. If you're using it as a text messaging device, or for posting on social networks it's awesome, easily the nicest phone keyboard I have ever used, and this is coming from someone who has had landscape QWERTY phones since the days of the Nokia 9110
sound quality in phone calls/ speaker phone? - Seems fine to me.
screen quality? - This is the big sticking point. If you look closely at a photograph or a smooth gradient, you can see a speckly/dithering effect from the pentile screen. You have to know it's there and go looking for it, but if you're expecting the screen of a Galaxy SIII you'll be disappointed. It's still a decent screen with good brightness and contrast. Haven't tried it in direct sunlight yet though, what with me being in the UK
wish you bought something else? - Nope. Once you've decided you want a QWERTYphone, there really isn't another option right now. Thankfully this is a very good option.
One thing that's important to note, since you're in Australia, which I'm 99% certain is a GSM country, this phone will not work out of the box as the gingerbread firmware is CDMA only and locked to the Verizon network in the USA. You'll need to flash to the latest ICS leak. Idiot's guide here.
Thanx guys and girls,
Yeah I was wondering why I couldnt find this phone from aussie sellers in ebay and telco's.
So can be hacked to GSM?
Dam looked like a good phone too.
is it still a touch screen ?

The hardware is fully capable of both CDMA and GSM, however the firmware it shipped with does not have GSM support because Verizon are, well, they're as nice and helpful as Telstra!
Officially the Droid 4 will get world-phone functionality at the same time as the official ICS firmware drops, supposedly in Q3, but you can have it right now with one of the leaks.
Yes it's still a touchscreen. I only really warned you about the screen because quite a few people are moaning about it when compared to the Galaxy SIII. Personally I'm fine with the screen.

If you plan to use the phone outside the US, and are at least a little paranoid, it might be a good idea to buy the phone prior to the ICS release and install the leak.
Note: no evidence for what follows! It's at least possible that Verizon might lock the GSM portion of the phone, as they have done on their previous pre-ICS world phones. The leaks don't have a lock, and neither does the official ICS release on the RAZR, but it might seem to be a good idea at some point. Unlocking can be very hard, you need to be a VZ customer to get it from Verizon, and on some models, particularly the Droid 2 Global, Verizon changed the codes so that the web-based vendors codes (using Moto's DB) didn't work most of the time. In addition, they can make it hard to root and impossible to revert to an earlier version (Droid 2 got a root method last week, several months after the latest update). So, may not happen, but.....
Thanx all round...
if i find the right 1 at the right price ...I will be getting one I think.

No idea what swiftkeys is, but it does pop up a number of word suggestions at the bottom of the screen as I type.
As for price, I got a brand new one for US$500 which worked out at about UK£360 after import taxes. This was a lot cheaper than buying a similar device out of contract in the UK since most sellers do $1 = £1 to set UK prices even though the exchange rate is currently $1.50 = £1.
I don't know how Australian prices compare, or how much you get taxed for personal imports, but I'm sure you people get ripped off on electronic goods just as much as us Poms.

I love my original Nexus 7.. but it's finally starting to fall apart. I'm a super power user and take the thing everywhere and it's just beat to hell.
So here's the question.. upgrade to a new Nexus or buy another original nexus?
Lots of complaints on the new one out there.. rattle in the camera, bad touchscreen issues, more..
If you own both.. that's the comments I'd really like to hear. What do you think of one vs the other?
Facing the same dilemma, I have an opportunity to sell my N7 and get the 2nd generation.

I'm in the same boat - my original Nexus 7 was replaced after a month or so because of a screen fault. The replacement then suffered horrendous battery drain (~70% overnight when off!) after an Android update, so it also went back to Google. I replaced it with the 2013 model, which clearly had touch screen issues straight out of the box and random freezes, so back it went too, this time to Amazon who I bought it from - I'll never again buy anything from Google!.
In the month since it went back I've been considering what to do, and in all honesty I'm looking at avoiding Nexus 7's altogether, because of the problems and also because Google's customer service is simply the absolute worst I've ever encountered.
I have a large Amazon gift certificate balance which would cover the cost of the 2013 Nexus 7, but if I *was* to buy another Nexus 7 I think I'd go for the 2012 model and hope that the KitKat upgrade didn't cause any battery issues. Also by buying from Amazon there'll be no hassle if (when?) things go wrong.

I didn't have any issue with my google tablet. I bought my first one off of someone who had used it for about 6 months and I've used it every day at work and at home. Rooted, modded and ran like a champ. I put so many miles on it that it's starting to fall apart around itself. But I've loved everything about it. For the price I haven't used anything that even comes close. (IMO)
On paper the 2013 is closer to what I'm looking for.. but man are there are lot of complaints about it online.. definitely has me a bit nervous.

Well I suppose the safest thing would be to buy the 2013 model from Amazon, and if you have problems just return it for a refund. Any touch screen problems will show up before 30 days - mine showed up during the initial set-up process!
If you have to then nexus 7 2013 is your best bang for the buck.

I am sure the issues are not that wide spread, if you look closely at any electronic device the first batch is always not 100%. pick any device ull find problems. its like after software now devices are also in beta state so buy nexus 7 2013 and check if u find problem then replace and if the problem still exist then replace with some alternative. Remember the power u want is only available with nexus devices or els u cn always check galaxy tab and that will cost u more so basically wither u get the latest update with fairly powerful device with low price point or slow updates super power and less issues. choice is yours.

What an odd outlook. I've already had the Nexus 2013 which as I said was faulty straight out of the box. I am not alone in this as there are indeed *many* people having problems with it, and I won't be buying another as I'm not paying to be a beta tester.
You should check yours as you seem to be missing many letters

I'm not keen on touch keyboards either, which is a slight problem with a tablet! Lol!
Are you using KitKat on your 2012 N7? I'm still tempted to buy another if KK's working ok on it. I read some reports that it broke 3G and disabled SMS apps in favour of Google's own (can't remember what it's called), but as I'd go for the WiFi only model these problems wouldn't matter to be. And besides, they're quite cheap now.

howdy peeps,
I live in Canada and I just received my dock that I purchased from bestdirect.ca. As I opened the box right away I had a bad feeling as the date on the box said 2013.10 (supposedly defective models). it had the usual loose hinge and connection loss upon movement issues . Now, bestdirect.ca has a 15 day return for full refund (customer satisfaction or w.e) policy. What do you guys think I should do? Send for refund? replace with bestdirect? send to asus? What is the best approach for this? Im fairly new to RMA returning procces so I need some advice here. Also, Has anyone received dock with supposedly fixed models? has anyone received the 2013.11 and 2013.12 docks? If so, has the issues actually been fixed? please let us know. thanks for any help!
I would recommend a swap for one that is from batch 2013.11 or later.
When that is not possible then send it back and get money returned.
Then order one later that has proven no problems.

Personally, I'm waiting until we get verification that working docks are being produced, sold, and received by users before I order another one. Mine had problems and I sent it back to Amazon for a refund the very next day.

Yeah, this seems like the best option. Bail out until there's a verified solution. Prices will only go down over time, anyway.
k then that seems to be the way to go. i will ask for the supposedly fixed batch docks, if they cant fulfill that then i will take refund and hold untill confirmed fixed units arrive. Although im still interested to know if anyone has the 2013.11 or 2013.12 batch dock, and if they has fixed the issue in that. other than that, thnx for all the help guys :good:

I have a 2013/09 and it has no issues a bit of movement but it has never lost connectivity
for those that say it will eventually break then fine let it as long as it happens in warranty at least then i will get a replaced dock likely that may not have these issues but i doubt much would change.
till then i`m happily using my tablet with no issues besides asus jp untimely release of 4.3 or better.
still waiting and confirmed not rolling out yet. in fact when speaking to asus about it they didn`t even know if a update was in the works typical call center shenanigans.
See thats what i hate and really cant stand: the wiggling. its absolutely anoyying. i want it to be firm and sturdy with no movement at all, so as though it feels like a mini laptop. i also dont like the click buttons on the track pad. very stiff and hard to press. dammit asus....

Well I hope that from builddate 2013.11 the flexing is much less.
But the quality of the dock can't compare with the quality of the TF700 dock. That was so much better. Sad but I rather pay Euro 50,- more for good quality then what they did now.
