I will be getting my Nexis one soon.
What adivce would you give in terms of when first first turning the phone on? Whats should i lookout for? What tasks should i perform first?
Welcome uzee
Glad you're on the Nexus bandwagon!!!
1) Insert your sim card
2)Register your google account
3)You'd need to input your carrier's APN info (look @ your old phone for this or call your carrier up)
4)There's a tutorial that gives you a tour of the N1
5)Go into setting --> wirless and input your WIFI information if your internet is restrictive.
And you're pretty much set to go!!!
Some apps that I think are essential and have on my Nexus:
roze's Management Apps
Look out - The first app I installed from the market, it has an anti-virus scan, data backup and anti theft options
Gmail/SMS Unread count - great widgets that show you how many unread emails/sms that you have
Smooth Calander - I find this better than the stock calander widget
Astrid - one of the best Tast manager on the market
Astro - essential file manager that allows you to access your SD card and backup your apps onto your SD
Mini Info - shows you % of battery life, RAM and SD memory available
Quick Info - a good all in one, management and TK app
If this is your first Android phone, I'd recomend you read this:
roze's Management Apps
Don't turn it on, charge it till the light is green.
Why would you say that? The battery is partially charged already.
