Thread: GOT IT!

Got my G1 in from UPS 5 minutes ago...

phone is charging...

packaging is nice...

phone feels great, not as big as I was expecting, keyboard feels ok so far...

looking forward to turning this **** on!

So far the thing is great!

I am writing this reply from it. I did not touch my computer all night.

The OS is pretty easy to navigate, phone runs very smooth. It runs smoother than my HTC pro that had more ram but was running windows mobile 6.1

The hardwarre feels great, not as large as I thought it was gonna be, although the flip up screen feels kinda flimsy and when closed it jiggles a bit. Ill have to find someone with one to see if theirs does thr same

I downloaded a bunch of stuff from the app store, all is free so far!

The program that you scan prices with ther camera is awesome I was scanning everything in my room haha

I give the phone an A-

Couple pics??

Especially of the browser! :mrgreen:

took me awhile to figure out these features aren't in the phone..i did some research too

- No files transfer , even via bluetooth
- No feature to view files in your memory card
- Could not find the picture i downloaded from a text message
- When sim card is locked, there's no place for me to insert the unlock code
- lack of virtual keypads for text (that might defeat the purpose of qwerty keyboard)
- no Profiles
- you can't select a custom music for IM ringtone or text

if you plug in USB to a computer, it will pop up as device NO NAME, and there are seperate folders for Downloads and Pictures...

I dont see downloaded applications though...

got mine yesterday as well....came from the t-mobile MDA with a broken screen.still figuring things out on it..ill post pics

its pretty quick to figure out...

the only thing I dont love is having to make 2 - 3 steps to make a call... even when aclling someone on myfaves....


Press MyFaves Button, Select Person, Select Call...

:-/

lame... mine has started making a spring "PING" sound when i open it... if i open just a little bit you hear it...

blah...

I didn't see a device "no name" but I could dump my music on the card. After that I highlight the tune in the music player and press the menu key - from there I have the option to select the tune as my ringtone. I can find no such option for my text notification yet.

Use Voice Dial. It is only one touch on the screen.
