Welcome to my Blog!

In this video the developers at Google’s Android developer team shows us some of the power features of what Google Android can do, with the help of combining applications together to create a much more useful device, by the use of camera, GPS, and internet access.

This is the video by Google’s Android Team on the HTC Dream or T-mobile G1. It shows some of the products you will see when you initially purchase it. Having introduce these products already on my blog, I’ll touch on some other stuff.

One of the most powerful features is the synchronization with your Google account. (provided you have the data plan) What this means that your Google mail, contacts, and calenders etc etc are always in sync. This is quite a very powerful feature for me, because now I have information always with me.

This is one of the reasons why I bought this Google G1 Android Phone. Because of the way the browser is developed, it allows browsing to be so much easier prescription viagra online and simple.

I couldn’t imagine another phone that provides the same functionality. Click on this video and you’ll know what I am saying. One of the best tips and tricks to be use with the Android Browser.

There’s the good stuff about my Google Android HTC Dream phone, and we all thought it was perfect. If you look at some of the reviews in my blog but… the downside?

Few things first.

The battery life. There was one instance where my battery icon was green. Strangely viagra from canada it was green throughout the whole night till the next morning. So I thought, “it must be because I didn’t use the phone.” I was wrong.

There was a problem with the battery icon, in particular the battery life percentage function. So if you look into settings>about phone>status>battery life, you’ll realize its on the higher side.

The next day I did a call on green colored full bar phone and went out. While I was traveling I tried to unlock my phone. Then…

All I see is a red light flashing. Its the first time I saw this, and at first I thought my phone was dead. After trying to revive (by taking out the batteries), I went home without using my phone for a day. A full day went pass without my phone, how bad. Good thing is after recharging the battery, it all went OK.

So perhaps I need a full charge and off my little program called battery graph… was suspecting this little utility here that it is eating or reporting my battery life wrongly.

The G1 Google android HTC dream phone is different from other phones on the market. The reason is because of its main functionality and open source operating system.

We have seen what the Symbian or S60, Windows Mobile, and Apple’s Iphone OS, and each of these OS does serve a different purpose. If you are like me wondering why you should change to this G1 Android phone, I’ll just list down 10 reasons why you should:

1. You use the internet to at least 3 websites a day

2. You have at least 5 mailboxes across different mail domains

3. You want to change to a new phone

4. You need internet access anywhere (within your telco mobile range)

5. You need a notebook-like device to do your stuff*

6. You need an Iphone natural viagra similar device (touch screen and accelerometer)

7. You travel around often and so you need a device with travelling Apps with GPS.

8. You are a developer and you have a fantastic application you wish to develop

9. You check the stock market every 5 minutes

10. Finally, you love Google, HTC, Android team, application developers and open source software.

So get yer phone now! I made up some of the reasons, so some were obviously stpid reasonsOr wait for other HTC phones that are launching soon, preloaded with Android.

This post would be more suitable for developers and designers, but its beneficial to see why Android is a better platform for running mobile devices.These videos are made from the developers of the Android Operating system, to show you the architecture of Google’s Android Operating system.

The underlying architecture

How the processes work

And the API

This HTC Dream is loaded with the Android OS, and we can expect more of this Operating system to be installed on new phones in the future. Surprising it is based on Linux 2.6 Kernel, and since this is open source, expect more free software to be built on this platform.

In this second viagra without a prescription review, I’ll talk more on how great this Google G1 phone can do, with the internet enabled applications.

The most common application used is the Gmail mail client. When your 3G connection is enabled, just sign in with your gmail account. After which, your mailbox will be sync. Other Google services like calender, analytics, talk, feedburner, and etc etc will be sync with yor account. A tip where I use to check all my mails, is to configure all mails to be forwarded to my Gmail account. So when there’s a new mail, I will be notified.

Next comes the browser, where I find it lightweight and fast. With this phone’s fast processing power,
Could open a few windows and browse them in a multiple task environment. To open a link in a new Window, just hold onto the link for a second, and a menu pops up asking you to “Open in new Window” or “shae this link”
2 of my commonly used functions.

There’s also this zoom function, where your text will be enlarge. And when your text enlarges, the browser automatically reformats the text so that the passage doesn’t pops out of the screen, and yo ucan view it top down

The youtube app rocks, because again its fast. On the way walking to train, I’ll click a video and let it load, and once I am on it I can view it.

The Android market lists the games and applications that we can download and use. Again if you do not have a data plan, this application will not function.

And overall I give it 9/10 ! Well if you use this phone as a traditional mobile phone, you ain’t gonna get the best out of it. I receive more emails than SMSes, so put this phone into good use!

After using the Android Phone for a week, I would like to let everyone else who want to get this phone some of my own opinions. I guess that you eagerly want this phone, either because it is a new HTC phone, or because it is running on the one Google Android Operating system on the market now?

Firstly I would like to say that I am most probably stuck with this phone for at least the next year or 2, because I don’t change my phone often. Secondly, the main reason why I changed this phone was because my mobile phone contract has ended, which means I am eligible to change a new phone at a good price. Thirdly I needed a device that could connect to the internet and do my stuff while I commute on the train. A laptop would be too bulky, and therefore, the HTC Dream G1 Android phone was the solution.

Now onto the review.

I’ll break this into two parts. The phone functionality and the internet capabilities. This HTC Dream phone does require you to have constant 3G connection to the internet, or known as the data plan. Without this, the phone is pretty much useless.

Phone functionality

When you search for contacts, the big scroll button will shows up and the letters A-Z appears in the center, making it easier to navigate down and find. If you add contacts, there is a function where you probably can save your contacts address on Google maps. The feature is clean and neat.

The SMS isn’t that bad, but I suggest you to get the ChompSMS application. The reason is you can SMS single handedly, without using your keyboard. The SMS are conversation style, like the Gmail or IM. No more annoying “1 New Message” but rather a new “reply” to your conversation. The bad thing here is, I am unable to select multiple sms and delete them.

Maybe there’s a way, do answer and reply to my comments if you know of any. Overall, the SMS and call function are pretty good, and satisfy the least requirement of a phone.

Other Phone functionality

The alarm clock allows you to add multiple clock reminders, and select which day you want it, by ticking it. This is good for me (who always overslept :p)

The main “desktop” or home screen are divided into 3 screens, as shown in my video. This is great because I can put a logical group of applications s to each of these screen. (Entertainment, phone, internet apps) The apps, shortcuts and widgets can be pulled around the interface, leaving you with a customizable desktop.

The keyboard is not too bad, even with my huge fingers, I can type easily without making too much of an error. The main phone interface is very clean and simple, with 6 buttons. The call, home, mouse ball, back, cancel call / lock, and the menu button. There’s this cool unlocking function where you can draw a pattern to unlock the phone. Unfortunately, I have stop using and instead use the normal unlocking method.

There’s this notification bar at the of the phone, so all of your SMSes, new mails, downloads, and other stuff will show as a notification. When you have that, you phone’s LED will show a green blinking light. That is how I tell if there’s a new “message”.

Security with pattern for unlocking function

Settings…

Inside the settings menu, you can toggle wifi, bluetooth, and airplane mode with the wireless controls. There’s also determine location options, where you choose GPS or mobile network signal to find out your location.

There’s also this “About phone”, where useful information about your phone is shown. The battery level is shown in %, and it falls constantly (vs other phones where you have full bar for 2 days and drops to 1 bar within half day) At a galnce you can see your Android and firmware version etc…

For this viagra without prescription week, I needed to recharge my phone every day, so that is something you have to take note. It might be due to the usage of this phone every minute during commute, checking mails and information, writing this blog (Oh yeah), exploring the phone’s functionality, and getting lots and lots of new applications and games for my everyday life.

And so, this will end part 1 of my review. Look out for part 2 in the Categories column !
