..but I get a weak 3g signal all the way to Pluto if I don't encompass the bottom half of the phone with my fats mitts.

Oh, and my screen has a blue-black tint when I turn it off. It doesn't go all the way black.

And I think my touchpad holds too much of my finger grease, does yours do that? I don't think the Incredible does. Don't you agree that makes the Nexus One obsolete? Where's the love?
Just sayin'.
And I thought my Nexus One would give my pitiful life some meaning. It's hasn't delivered, and that's been a defect since day one.
Just sayin'.
Just thought I'd add one more useless, inane "bag on the n1" thread. They're vogue, afterall.
Just sayin'.
My thought exactly! !
Is this kind of thread really necessary? I've moved it to off topic for now, drop me a PM if you disagree.
too funny. it seems to me that the nexus one has attracted a lot of "kids" or something who dont have much experience in the world of smartphones, hence the strange rants we see. just my opinion.
Hehe, it ain't bad
But, Off-Topic does seem like a more fit place for it....

Aye, and without using a name I managed to offend someone's sensibilities, because this thread was reported and moved here, even as all of the more inane threads this was meant to parody remain intact.
Your opinion is worth whatever mine is.

I have been on xda since my hero days so its been a few years. Didn't join til too long ago. Made some good pals along the way and learned tons.
So far this forum for me is a breath of fresh air. The phone forums are so full of hate, trolls, attacks, name calling, disrespecting developer's work and the usual douche stuff.
Of course its here too, just no where near as bad yet. Yet. I hope it stays that way because its so much nicer to thank people than report them.
This may be a gay post but some mods fell the same way. Anyway, glad I got the n7 and glad I'm here.

Yeah this has been awesome, reminds me of the HD2 forums, at least back when nand android became available, the vivid forums are crazy, these ones are nice.
This forum and the AT&T One X forums have been the best. The OG EVO 4G forums were good in the beginning but it got worse and worse over time. Same thing goes for the Epic 4G Touch. I know I'm guilty of some warranted snarky responses from time to time (Search first!) but I never actually attack anybody on a personal level like I've seen in some other subforums. We are all here for the same purpose so why can't we all just get along?

Shoulda been here 6 years ago.
It was all fields and everyone used to be on first name terms with each other.
Then the devices came, then they got popular then the neighbourhood went to pot.
>Then the devices came, then they got popular then the neighbourhood went to pot.
Why, when I was your age...
Pining for the golden yesteryear is a popular pasttime, but it's usually distorted by people's selective memory. Reminescing is futile anyway. What matters is how XDA manages the additional influx while still retaining some semblance of its core identity, and not let itself lapsed into another generic techie hang-out.
The dev sub-forum restrictions have been the main instrument in that. But it would be nice to see more care in other areas. The site's UI and layout was never good--check out the classic vs 2010 vs 2013 beta layouts--and now has turned for the worse.
We're not just talking about personal preference for aesthetics, but dirt-basic design concepts like text reflows vs fixed-width. The basic web UI now has orange-on-white. Who thinks up this stuff?
It would also be nice to see more creative solutions to navigate the huge traffic volume and decreasing sig2noise ratio. The most-recent-on-top scheme and the encouragement of long threads effectively bury most valuable info, as informative threads tend to have few inputs, and are pushed off by argumentative or more inane material. I suppose XDA is shackled by its forum software here, but one can hope for better.
Then again, maybe not.
I was a regular over at the SGT7 forums for a few months, didn't see too much name calling and stuff like that.

Don't take this the wrong way but when the US market opened up the s/n ratio plummeted.
Kids will be kids, wherever, but the US teen speaks a dialect of English and this is a predominantly English forum.
There are many native French & German / Nordic fora although many non native English speakers from Europe speak and type better English than many English teenagers and have better manners.

>Don't take this the wrong way but when the US market opened up the s/n ratio plummeted.
I live in the US, although I'm not a native, so I empathize both sides of the coin.
That said, attributing the deterioration of online communication to any nationality or ethnic group isn't a grounded argument. English is still the lingua franca of the Internet at this point, and the US user population is still the largest group. Failings from them tend to be magnified by their numbers.
I agree that there is a marked decline in social/communicative exchanges online. It's a little sad to see people don't even bother to correct obvious spelling mistakes, let alone correct grammar. Any attempt to better such is derided as grammar nazis.
But it is what it is, and it reflects the population at large, who also exhibited a marked decline in analytic thinking and social discourse. No amount of handwringing or reminescing will change that. And it is an equal-opportunity malaise in that it affects every online population, not just the US population.
It's kind of sad...
It's a bit like saying the Nexus 7 forums only murders 10 innocent children a week so it's not as bad as other forums who murders at least 100 innocent children and their mothers on a weekly basis.
It's unfortunate but unless the moderators are extremely active (and well-staffed) chances are the trolls will ruin it for everyone sooner or later.
Especially now it's the summer and there is nothing pimply-faced 13-year-olds like to do more than to troll forums in between playing the latest shooter on their MicroSony PlayBox, stuffing themselves with greasy pizza and masturbate.

I wasn't expecting a happy ending - that would have been insulting.
But, it should have been done better. It's like we've spent the last 7 years getting to know someone inside out, and then they change in the last 5 minutes of the show into something completely different. Is anyone else reminded of Anakin's 5 minute journey to The Dark Side? It was just badly portrayed.
Apparently though, the last series was meant to span over at least 2, which is where the rumours about it having another series to go came from. They did cram in too much story and that spoilt it.
The last series was rubbish for me. It pretty much killed my appreciation for what had come before.

Maybe they crammed too much story that's why people were expecting a somewhat different ending. I feel that the reason why he succumbed into seclusion was because of his very nature. We know Dexter as the person who is known for taking decisions no one could.
But I agree to the point that they did cram too much story in last season. Though it's disappointing to see him like that but he could not have done anything else accounting to his very character.

Actually it is important. A lot of people here believed the 6 was too big. A lot of people believed that the 5 was perfect. A lot of people had discussed the possibility that Google would keep the 5 and the 6 and upgrade the hardware of each device yearly or so. If google has indeed stopped production of the 5 that could mean they are gearing up for a new 5. Or they are killing the device to be replaced by something else entirely. Notice how I used the term "a lot" quite often? So while your entitled to your opinion it doesn't mean the rest of us aren't interested in what this could mean. Since you've already decided to report this thread Id be interested to see that the Mods take on it is.

My warranty card says it's 2 years.
Given the pace of change it's not surprising that the nexus 5 is reaching end of life. In terms of market reach the model had reached saturation. Those who want it have it already. Phones sell because they are an upgrade,to profit companies must keep moving. What does it mean for existing nexus 5 owners. Not much. We are likely to see incremental software updates for the next couple of years. We may or not get big future updates but nexus devices tend to be supported longer. A lot of Nexus 5s have been sold, we have a strong development community that will continue for the next couple of years. All this is normal, expected. Over the next few years the majority of the community will buy new phones, many in less than 12 months. Not a shock.
The N5 will still be available through other sellers like ebay, amazon, etc..... for a good long while. You can still buy any nexus phone from the past brand new.
Sorry people this is not new information.

You know, a couple of you guys aren't exactly helping the mood or fostering the feeling of community. I'm being blunt, not trying to continue the attacks. Folks that have been around for a while are right to keep the new people and haters in check, no doubt we need that, but jumping all over someone when he wasn't really begging, complaining about anyone in particular, or being especially rude, is a bigger problem - this turns new people off. The "old" members seem to get pissy a little too quick and a little too often, don't you think? We don't need XDA becoming 4chan/Android or the Twitter of development - we're all better than that.
I took his comment simply as frustration, and he was not incorrect, except he had the date wrong - and you seem to be aware of that, so cut him some slack, please. When you treat newer and less experienced people the exact same way you ask them NOT to act, they tend to go away rather than learn and eventually contribute to the community, and we need all the new help we can get. I'm sure I've been present in the Android ROM community for longer than anyone in this thread (2009, HTC Dream), and I don't stoop to personal attacks here (I save it for Reddit, LOL), so I'll kindly ask you all to stick to constructive comments. I'm sure you're all smart enough to point out to people where they've gone wrong without being twice as rude as them, right?
I'll go back to lurking now, and hope the Redmi Note 7 community here is a little nicer and more helpful than some of the devices I've been researching here lately. It used to be legitimately fun. Shout out to @owenbeals for getting the ball rolling on what should be a fun and insightful thread. Let's get it back on track.

First thing I do on any Android phone or tablet: Install Nova Launcher. I like how it works, I can easily set things up the way I'm used to having them, and it works reliably and smoothly.
For the Redmi Note 7, I went ahead and used my previous/existing phone to set things up more or less automatically, which I had not had great luck with in the past but worked very well to install my apps and whatnot. I did choose to restore my Nova settings from a backup saved to my Google drive, which worked, too.
I also install Textra immediately, and this time I didn't even bother trying Xiaomi's stock messaging app, because I like Textra that much. And I turned off auto brightness, because I never agree with it on what is the correct setting for any given environment.
What else, besides case and screen protector? I know, Gorilla Glass 5, but it can still scratch, and even a cheap slim case can help a phone survive the drops I'm sure to put it through. For the cheap price, I was tempted to go "naked," just to keep it slim and simple, but that's a recipe for disaster with my butter fingers.

I also install Textra immediately, and this time I didn't even bother trying Xiaomi's stock messaging app, because I like Textra that much. And I turned off auto brightness, because I never agree with it on what is the correct setting for any given environment.
What else, besides case and screen protector? I know, Gorilla Glass 5, but it can still scratch, and even a cheap slim case can help a phone survive the drops I'm sure to put it through. For the cheap price, I was tempted to go "naked," just to keep it slim and simple, but that's a recipe for disaster with my butter fingers.
Next up is to unlock the boot loader, install TWRP, and try some ROMs. Big LOS fan, but I'll try any ROM that looks stable-ish.

Sorry but your post is wayyy too long to finish. I did read the first paragraph tho. And no, i dont feel like i did anything wrong here. He is rude, entitled and ungrateful person, thats a fact. No one likes his attitude here, thats also a fact. And its not only about this comment, if you look at his profile, hes a new member, whos all posts are the same, crying and whining and criticizing devs for not delivering his favourite rom like they owe him that. LOL. So yeah, im gonna stay with my words.

Okay, great, thanks for being so helpful and making my point for me.

rofl, sorry if i sound impatient but yes i agree with emepher - you guys are very wound up over nothing, if i was someone who cared what you wannabe nerds had to say i would probably leave these forums straight away, sadly for you guys i will be around for eternity, haunting your souls. Lets all just relax and enjoy, who knows you might even learn something from me.

But you said you gonna sell this device after 1 more week. So why lie? Lmao. You are pathetic atempt of a troll, everybody know you now, just gonna get ignored kiddo. Only thing we could potentially learn from you is being childish, self entitled, rude kiddo. Oh, and we could also learn broken math from you, because apparently its been over 6months since february 28 lmao.
