Red Hat blowing on homescreen - X 2014 General

I just got mine finally. It had a red hat blowing on the homescreen, trying to touch it would move it away after a while a 70's style czech cartoon opened with a mouse trying to catch the hat. To follow the story you had to move the phone as if shooting the events with a camera happening around you

Yes, this has existed since the original Moto X.

I disabled spotlight after the first time I saw some creature on my screen.

I didn't see anyone mention it here or in any of the reviews though...

Just wait till you start playing with the bugs in the next release...

Love the spotlight series..hope there's more soon.

I have never heard of this before anywhere.
That sounds really fun and cute

The one with the red hat is actually part of the Cardboard app as well. Really cool seeing it in real 3D/VR through the cardboard hardware. My kids went crazy over it.

Thanks
Since I had seen this thread, I just handed my phone to my 7 YO son when I saw the red hat. He loved it, has watched it a couple of times, and wants to show his mother. It is rather cute, but a waste of space so I will be deleting it eventually.

HAHA! I also laughed out loud in a quiet office. No offense to the OP (I guess their is no non offensive way to say this) but that is the worst question I have ever seen on this or any other android board. It is almost akin to asking where the "any" key is...
Wait there are "other" android forums?
hehe I couldn't help it, that reminded me of my friend who sent her phone back to tmo because it had a big crack down both sides.

You need to light candles and spread rose peddals around your room first then massage it slowly, get some vaseline and finger the green guy till it screams "Your the Hero i always Dreamed of, mmmmmm!! Work your Magic baby, hit my G(1) spot oh oh oh I'm gonna rooooooot yaaaaaaeeeehhhhh"

Ari Gold Uses the Nexus One!?

Did anyone watch Entourage last night? Well if you did, you might have noticed that Ari Gold is now using our Nexus One has his primary phone in the show!
It's about time the Nexus got some airtime!

ya i saw that but later in the episode he was holding a blackberry, i tried to get a look at the other phone but couldn't get a clean look at it
...People actually watch that show? Huh.
the show is good for 2 things - chicks and more chicks.
It's annoying how apple is able to get their devices and logo plastered all through tv and movies. I'd love to see Google fight back and get some android action in place.

i know how cool would it be seeing tom cruise playing a tic tac toe game on it, that would pull the punters in big time.
Just watched the episode, and... yep he is certainty using a Nexus one.
I love it
I haven't seen iron man but doesn't he use an LG ally? There's an ally commercial with iron man is the only reason I ask...also I see the g1 randomly on commercials and TV shows, not exactly the best android to promote but I suppose its better than nothing...

Actually, I am pretty positive he is using an Incredible. The back is too dark to be an N1.
Watching the show right now.
They all are switching through phones, but I noticed Drama, Ari, and even a few other people using the Nexus One.
Then later on Ari uses a blackberry.
If anybody watched 24 almost everybody used HTC's..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=689709
Ari has at least two phones on him all the time. The first thing I did when I saw the phone is flip mine over and look at the camera lol.
IDK if that was a nexus, it kinda looks like it, but so do some of the other phones and they aren't a nexus.

i dunno, it really looks like a nexus to me
is this the htc hero?
Clearly a nexus one.
I went back and looked on my tivo and it definitely is. You can even see the Google logo on the back of it. I think I got mixed up with the other two phones Ari has. lol
On weeds, most everyone uses an iphone, but I have seen Andy (Mary Louis Parker's brother-in-law on the TV show) use a G1 a couple times.

[CLOSED/G2] Engadget: G2 Issues

http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/01/t-mobile-g2-trouble-roundup-loose-hinges-missing-storage/
This should help get the ball rolling a lot sooner.
Nice. Hope they offer replacements for the defective units without a hassle.
HOLY **** I'M ON ENGADGET!!!! My dream has come true.
Congrats

Congrats, you win one internet!
But seriously, im gonna tweet that article to T-Mobile, maybe it will make them offer replacements and money off our bills for the hassle, lol.
While I can see that screen thing maybe slighty annoying if I am trying to use the keyboard while lying in bed I don't think it is deffective. I checked mine and 2 of my friends and they are the same as far as holding the phone upside down and the screen opening that is normal design so no need for exchange there.
But if you have verticle play or push especially when closed that would be a problem. All g2 that I saw have the same availbe install apps program the full 4 won't be available since the different system partitions take up that space
I was wondering how long it'd take a gadget blog to pick up on it
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I emailed a couple of their editors this morning about it, as I'm sure a few others did too.
How in the hell don't people notice this stuff until users report it? That's some journalism.
So, some users are reporting that their phones do not suffer from the hinge issue. If any of you are present, would you mind creating a video?
Crossing my fingers that my G2 doesn't suffer the same fate.
Thanks for your help in getting me on engadget guys. This is seriously the best day of my life. I'll look back at my wedding next year and say " Pffftt, this won't be on engadget though"

I guarantee you that my phone doesn't do that. I've seen his video, tried the same thing with mine, and as I posted in the other thread -- it opens a mm or two. If I shake it while holding it upside down by the back (which is kinda difficult to do), it opens a little more, but still not nearly that much.
I also emailed Engadget about it this morning
Thanks Jorsher.
Not to call you a liar, but would you mind posting a video, if you could? That way, if the issue does pop up, we could reference your video to T-Mobile / news sites to show that not all phones are acting this way (getting us replacement units).

I took a quick video of mine, the hinge is not as tight as I would like but it doesn't fall out whether the keyboard is open or closed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOhbEvlzBbI
Thanks, cyricc.
That would definitely annoy me, but it's not as crazy as the original video that made it to Engadget.
Still crossing my fingers for my unit to arrive without issue. After going through two Vibrants, I'm about at wits end.
Thanks again to everyone posting these videos or writing about these issues. Keep 'em coming.

You're going to be famous. Keep rolling out videos of the G2
Going from the two videos, mine falls somewhere in between the two. It doesn't stay open when inverted, but also doesn't completely open when inverted closed.

YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS ! (please read)

OK....so you guys wont believe this.....
I live in NewYork....(flushing) to be precise...which is an area dominant by chinese people....
so I took the subway.....and it was jam packed.....
but thats not it.....
about like a metre away from me I saw a chinese dude with a huge ass phone in his hand....i was kinda curious to know what phone it was untill he flipped it over to do something and I saw....the HD2 buttons.....and thot.....no big deal...i have a HD2 too.....
BUT TO MY SURPRISE !!
I SAW WP7 running on his phone.......he had the Zune music player on it....
NOW i know a lot of you guys will be like....ohhh it might have been a theme or an add on !!
but ! NO
he pressed the start button and it had the same transition.....he even pressed the VOlume UP button and I saw the Notification feature on top of the screen in WP7.....
I so wanted to talk to him about it...but the train was packed and the dude left at the next stop....
now I want to know what you guys think about this ???
i think its bs
This thread is pretty useless without pictures or even the standard blurry/shakey video. It's just going to start more rumours and threads like I know a friend who knows a guy who saw a guy eating lunch who apparently works for HTC and he and a prototype HD2 running WP7.
I saw the Loch Ness monster the other night. He asked me for tree fiddy.

Seems like every chinese person around the globe is running WP7 perfectly on their HD2....except the fine folks here at XDA.

same here, first launch event, matter of fact this is the first time i have won any contest, and supposedly they have goody bags for us invites,,sounds like a lovely few hours of asus showering us
I'll see you pals there! I've been invited by ASUS for quiet some time now! Hopefully I'll be helping or attempting to help to develop for the device if I have time! I haven't used Android in a while but I honestly can't wait for the release of this device.
I'll be there.
I'll also be there, look forward to replacing my OPO!
you guys have any thoughts on which version they will be giving us, my thoughts its gonna be the 2.3 processor with 4gb of ram and 64 gb on storage, my reasoning is they want to give us a crankin model so we can praise it with lots of love and joy on these forums and others,,steve

We will see when we get there I'm pretty sure you are right though, but let's see when we get over there! Oh yeah, and as I hear the bootloader are locked as of now so whenever you see an ASUS employee ask them when will we be receiving an unlock so we can start development! Heh.
I will be there as well. I pre-ordered 2 Alcatel Idol 3's also, so it will be nice to compare the two.

So that was a fun time. Met a few AndroidCentral people, a few from XDA, and a whole lot of people who won contests to go. I honestly thought it would have ran longer, and was glad it didn't. Pretty cool grab bag as well, and I was lucky enough to snag the red version instead of the grey.
Oh nice on getting a red version! I immediately switched the stock cover out for the view cover anyway, though.
I am liking the view cover...more than I thought I would. the rock garden was a nice touch...

Color doesn't matter. Look under the phone/usb tray in the big box. They threw in a window-flip cover.

(nod) I don't use cases either. I'm not keeping the phone, though. It's really nice. I actually like the form factor better than my Nexus 6. Unfortunately, both T-Mo and AT&T are awful here in CT. I'm bouncing between 0 and 1 bar on the Zenfone and have full bars on my N6.

I overheard you say that immediately after you got yours, I asked about what other colors they had and the gentleman sure made it sound like he would have given me a red one if I asked nicely. But I wanted black
It's cool that they had a bit of flexibility.
Jaysus145 and I rolled up from Harrisburg not knowing what to expect. We were really blown away by the hospitality and had a great time. The Zen Garden is in my girlfriend's cubicle already. Nice touch by them including a T-Mo SIM as it gives people with coverage concerns a chance to give it a try. My coverage here has been pretty solid but on the ride home, it was very up and down. Coming from VZW, that might be an issue, but it does give me an option for when my contract is up.
Good to (sort of) meet some people at the event. Good times.
