What's a digitizer?

A part that would have e cost about 5 dollars more to
Have. Top of the e Lin.e part

I haven't corrected about 25 % o f the errors using it in RH in this post

This is the WORST phone I've used in years, the digitizer is a cheap piece of crap,, seems it's a years old unit, and loses it's calibration frequently, we're talking 4 hard resets today...

Maybe you just have a lemon? Why not put Google's warranty to the test and get a brand new replacement?

I am a pretty denanin HG phone wiser. But this is pureshit...

The $15 data plan is unlimited, but it is only for feature phones. What I'm wondering is if I can just upgrade my plan to unlimited 3G on my current phone for $15, then stick my sim card into the N1. I'm wondering if ATT will notice the switch and then charge me extra.

They noticed when my friend tried it. I still thinking about his reaction.

What do you mean you don't understand the point? Its got a bit better hardware, and Sense, which the vast majority of people consider superior to stock Android.

Its a better Nexus One that's actually sold in Verizon's stores and might get worthwhile advertising. Assuming VZW gets both, I foresee the Incredible absolutely dominating the Nexus One in sales.

The Incredible outselling the N1, ain't saying much...

Link? I just looked at XDA and couldn't find the threads you are talking about.

Click on help then "I have a problem" I suspect there'll be a class action over it. There are threads with thousands of responses and complaints

And just wait till the sales volume ramps up...

 

[BigSmooth]

Interesting. I have not had this happen a single time. In fact the only notable issue either my wife or I have since we've gotten the phones was a single spontaneous reboot I got one day; otherwise the hardware has been flawless. It must be an HTC quality control problem. It does appear to be the most-starred "defect" on code.google.com that is Nexus One-specific so it has to be getting at least some attention.

Just realized. I think Google did this(put the Nexus One on AT&T really quickly unannounced) in response to Apple suing HTC.

Yesterday, the thing started to zoom with scrolling motions, lost calibration ~6 times today, all requiring a hard reset, and Im having spontaneous power cycling now, 2Xs today...

All I can say is that when this puppy hits a bigger carrier, theres going to be some drama...

 

[dguy6789]

I've had the phone for a month now and used it every day. I've never had a hard reset, touch screen issues, or any of the issues of which you speak. Maybe you just have a defective phone? Maybe a significant percent of them being released are defective, but I don't think it's accurate to believe every one of them has these problems. I paid a ton of money for this thing. If it wasn't virtually perfect, I would be pissed.

Well, i guess I can give them a shot at a replacement, when its working, Im pretty impressed with it

T-Mobile gives you a $20 discount if you aren't on a subsidized contract. I've been considering ending my ATT contract and getting the T-Mobile N1 unsubsidized to take advantage of the cheaper plan. Are you sure you aren't already on the "correct" plan ?

AFAIK ATT doesn't have the same discount for off contract phones, which is why I'm wary of getting the ATT N1.

This is what I did. Dumped my iphone 3g and my at&t contract and went to t-mobile with an unsubsidized N1. Happy enough so far with t-mobile's coverage. The discount is great, especially after i sell my iphone and start saving money over the cost of the iphone contract after the first year.

I'm torn. I could get the nexus one for AT&T and have known good coverage (I have used AT&T for a long time now and it works great in my area) or I could get it for T-mobile and not know how good the coverage is, but get a good discount on my monthly bill.

Decisions, decisions.

Correct answer is C: Get the Nexus One on Verizon.

If you're in an area that gets good T-Mobile coverage, T-Mobile is the hands down best choice.

Get the N1 on T-Mobile. If coverage is good in your area keep it, if coverage is bad in your area, send it back. No company has better rates on plans than T-Mobile. They also have double the data cap size of Verizon and AT&T(10GB vs 5GB). T-Mobile also lets you make calls and use data at the same time, can't do that on Verizon. Current 3G phones including the Nexus One will work with T-Mobile's next gen "4G" network when it is deployed as well. No other company is going to have that kind of compatibility.

Yeah, but there's a $45 restocking fee. I'm wondering if one could buy a g1 locally, use it for 2 days to test out the tmobile coverage, return it, and then buy an N1 if the coverage was good enough...

The cheapest non-contract t-mobile price is $30 less per month than the comparable verizon plan

I agree with ya here. When I had my N1, I was amazed at how much I was getting for only $50 a month. I was getting a ton of minutes with unlimited texts and data. The downside of course was that 3G service was spotty and it couldn't penetrate through the building I work in at all (though all carriers have a problem here).

I'm using Verizon solely for their coverage and I'm paying $40 a month more for that over what I paid for T-Mobile.

I was a long time verizon customer. They are more expensive, have worse customer service, and screwed me over with bad charges. I'll never use them again.

No discount means no thanks, IMO. I'm waiting to see how Sprint handles it, and the Supersonic.

Haha, I sent an email to Google on the day this was announced asking why they weren't advertising this as a Rogers/Bell/Telus phone and if it would indeed work on Belus, this was their reply today:
