Hi, i've been using Windows Mobile PDA for almost 6 years now. The really annoying part is the device will hang and will have to reboot.

Do Android have the same problem? On my Dopod now a days, i reboot avg 2~3 a day.

Honestly, so far my G1 never hang (touch wood) in normal operation....and yes it hang before in front of me and it was during my inexperience rooting process ^^P

Yup, never really hang. I only experienced 'force close' events but the beauty is that Android will attempt to restart the program. Down side is you loose the program's previous state.

The latest Radio from JF should end with 1.22.14.11.

"what should i do first with a rooted phone?" - I will get myself a copy of Advanced Task Manager and start killing those apps that you don't want them to run at the backgroud especially after a fresh reboot ^^

Start enjoying the power of control for your G1.

The G1/HTC Dream like any recent HTC WinMo devices are equipped with more RAM than before. It has 192MB of RAM compared to previous generations which is more like 64/128MB. Of course now we have RAMs up to 288MB but those are ultra high end. On the Android OS (which is what our device runs on and the very reason for all this excitement) uses RAM a little differently from WinMo.

It attempts to populate the RAM as much as it can and dynamically manage the levels of RAM for each program on the fly. This is what I have noticed. Only 96MB of the 192MB of RAM is available to user programs (the remaining 96 I believe is for the OS). On average, it has about 20-30MB of RAM free after a full restart (70% utilization). Each additional program uses a small 10-20kB of RAM. Of course most of the chunks are already loaded in the RAM.

Multi-tasking isn't really a problem because if there's insufficient memory, Android will shut down programs in the background and save its last active state. When the program is recalled, it'll restore its last active state like nothing ever happened. Of course, certain high priority programs will not be shut down. In summary, it is a new way in managing memory.

However, if you plan to use this Android OS for some very serious business maybe that time has not arrive yet. Don't get me wrong, it already has a solid platform and foundation. But its not really as equipped or matured as mainstream mobile OS available now. For example, there's no storage management, no bluetooh data transfer, no video recording, etc. Its solely a good internet centric phone for now and damn good in messaging. If thats all you need, its a no brainer.

It uses Google Maps. I haven't tried this application yet but from what I read it uses Google Maps system by downloading it to your microSD card. It'll do the routing on its own and provide visual turn-by-turn navigation. Speech capability is available through a separate program which translate the text to speech on the fly. Initial reviews are the speech capability is a little primitive in terms of pronunciation which is a little robotic unlike specialized navigational software (pre-recorded voice files).

Sorry guys... I checked again. The AndNav (version 2) runs on OpenStreetMap (OSM) and OSM currently have limited support for Malaysia. The AndNav (version 1) was based on Google Maps but ended up with licensing issues. The settlement has rendered version 1 to only use static navigation based on user input (in other words USELESS). However, OSM is a good platform for people to contribute. When you drive on an uncharted route it'll draw it on the map. When you're online, it'll upload new coordinates to the OSM server. Looks like we need war drivers.

OR

We need some experts to port the Malsingmap over kekekekeke!
