    • The Nexus One, manufactured by HTC, is the latest and greatest Android phone. It sports:

    • A 1 GHz Qualcomm (QCOM) Snapdragon processor.

    • A 3.7" 480x800 widescreen WVGA AMOLED display.

    • A 5MP digital camera w/ LED flash that also records .mp4 video.

    • 802.11n wireless capability for when you can't depend on 3G.

    • 7 hours of 3G talk time from a removable 3.7V, 1400 mAh lithium battery.

    • The box's color scheme kind of looks like Google's.

    • Pawning apps on the clear plastic protective sleeve? Guess the app store really is that desperate.

    • The unbelievably easy task of removing the plastic rear cover gives access to the replaceable battery. Hey Apple, take notes!

    • Inside the battery compartment you can see:

    • The 5MP camera lens

    • LED flash bulb

    • External speaker

    • The warranty-killing VOID sticker

    Thanks for the IMEI! I'll be cloning your phone now :)

    • Warranty = VOID. No turning back now.

    • This phone is very nicely put together. After removing three screws and prying with a plastic opening tool, the battery tray comes right out.

    • The upper circuit board is held in place by another Phillips screw.

    • After removing the screw, maneuver the upper board past the two metal clips holding it in place and lift it out of the phone body.

    • The large black-coated foil section is the data connection between the two main circuit boards.

    • After some trying moments with a few tools of destruction, we figured out the bottom cover can simply be popped off with a plastic opening tool.

    • Guess what? We found more screws.

    • This phone uses many foil antennas attached to the several plastic internal frame pieces.

    If the antennas are on the bottom, the reception would be reduced everytime the phone is grabbed.

    Just like the iPhone, when you grab it the hand reduces the reception thus the iPhone has bad reception.

    The copper foil isn't antenna, that's shielding to fix a sensitivity issue :)

    The human body doesn't attenuate reception much at the frequencies used by mobile phones. By placing the antennas at the bottom, it reduces interference with hearing aids, because the antennas are farther away from the electronics in the hearing aid.

    There may be other reasons, but those are the ones I know of.

    Look carefully at Step 7, second picture. The piece in the technician's hand contains the antenna. It is a black, flat metal piece riveted to that small module, with white writing on it. A similar style of antenna is used in the T-Mobile G1. The little round connector is an antenna connector. If I had to guess, there's probably a connector on the underside of that module to connect it to the antenna connector on the board.

    OK thank you, that makes total sense. there are many complaints about poor reception on the nexus when you cover the bottom of the phone, which makes sense since you are covering the antenna. i've learned to spread my pinky about 1 inch apart, leaving this exact area open, and the signal pops right back up. this picture confirms it is located EXACTLY in that spot. good work!

    • With a quick pry of the plastic opening tool, we found that the black plastic frame slightly envelops the lower side of the logic board.

    • And just like that, the plastic frame snaps off, revealing the lower logic board.

    • It's quite a colorful phone on the inside. We've got oranges, greens, yellows, dark grays, and all sorts of fun stuff!

    You can see the three internal contacts that line up with the external contacts of the bottom of the phone. Does anyone know which of those two is for charging. Ones has to be 5V and another Ground.

    • We had to take care of one more Phillips screw.

    • After that, the logic board assembly slowly-but-surely slid out from the rest of the phone.

    • The camera and headphone jack are both soldered directly to the main board.

    I wonder if you can tell where is the rattling noise come from?

    http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/an...

    Joe Lin - Antwoord

    No, I'm almost certain the rattling noise comes from the camera autofocus mechanism. You can hear it when you use any camera/barcode application.

    • The Nexus features a 3.7-inch (diagonal) widescreen WVGA AMOLED touchscreen.

    • This is the second device we've taken apart with an OLED display. The Zune HD we took apart last September also featured a Samsung-branded OLED display.

    • The Nexus display features a resolution of 480 x 800. That's a few less pixels than Motorola's Droid (480 x 854), but far more than the iPhone 3GS (320 x 480).

    Have you further disassembled the front housing part?

    How are the icons beneath the screen lit?

    It would also be interesting to see the maschined aluminium part from the inside.

    • The chip is labeled T1007A, 2 0927, AMP08P. It controls the ClearPad 2000 series capacitive dualtouch sensor used in this phone.

    • We haven't been able to find any specifics on this chip. If you can help out with details, let us know!

    • Skyworks (SWKS) SKY77336 GSM power amplifier (labeled SKY77336-21 3888833 1P 0940 MX)

    • Qualcomm (QCOM) PM7540 power management chip (labeled PM7540 AH43510 C4944001)

    • The TI (TXN) TPS65023 integrated Power Management IC (labeled TPS65023 TI 9AJ P675 G4)

    • Qualcomm (QCOM) appears to be the big winner on the Nexus. We've found at least three of their chips in here already.

    • On the left is a RTR6285 RF transceiver.

    • The large chip on the right is the nexus of the Nexus. It's a Qualcom (QCOM) QSD8250 "Snapdragon" 1 GHz ARM processor.

    • The small chip between the two Qualcomm (QCOM) chips is an Audience A1026 voice processor, including ambient noise cancellation.

    The chip at the upper right corner of the Snapdragon is an Atmel Mega88, microcontroller. Spec sheet describes it as an 8-bit AVR RISC microcontroller w/ 8K programmable flash memory.

    Seth G - Antwoord

    I can report that the Audience chip does its job quite impressively. With the last two phones I've had (BlackBerry Bold 9000 and Sony-Ericsson W810i), talking in my loud car on the freeway with a wired headset (with omnidirectional mic) resulted in people telling me to call them when I arrived at my destination because the noise was too overwhelming for them to hear me. Yesterday I called those same people from the freeway and they said I sounded totally clear. Good work, Audience!

    Seth - The Atmel chip is most likely used for the cap touch buttons along the bottom of the phone, and possibly for other touch features such as haptics, light sensors or other cap sense user interface features.

    Of course I could only verify this if someone sends me one to play with ;)

    • The Bluetooth and 802.11n wireless is provided by a Broadcom (BRCM) BCM4329 chip.

    • The 802.11n capability gives the Nexus an advantage over the iPhone 3GS, which only has 802.11g connectivity. The Broadcom (BRCM) chip in the Nexus is the same chip we found in Apple's newest (3rd generation) iPod touch.

    • The package is labeled BCM4329EKUBG CD0942 P21 937322 SEA

    Technically speaking, the chip DOES support 802.11N, but it is NOT supported by the supplied driver.

    • Three more chips.

    • Unfortunately these were located underneath soldered EMI covers. For the sake of science and gadget lovers everywhere, we had to be a little forceful to get these covers off.

    • Using the Nexus One post-teardown just became very iffy. Previous to this step, we felt good about its functionality, but no longer...

    The great think about trackballs it that they can be replaced pretty easilly, the one in my blackberry comes out with by popping the little metallic ring that surrounds it off, than it just falls out, and the ball itself, and rollers are a seperate assembly than the electronics, and light making for easy(er) replacement, but there wasn't much detail here about this trackball in the nexus, but it looks similar to the one in my blackberry.

    1) Screen glass: I wondered if it was the tough 'Gorrila glass' reported by Engadget as used in the Droid and dell Adamo ?

    2) The Broadcom Radio chip has integral FM Radio (Rx & Tx), which the Nokia N900 uses to allow streaming of music to a Car Radio or your home hi-fi. the iTouch also uses same chip. Why is this hasn't his phone got FM Radio listed in the spec ? Radio is v. useful for getting local info when travelling out of range of 3G.

    The only other Android phone that supports FM radio is the HTC Tattoo so this is a good question. I'm not sure but I don't think FM support is currently part of the core Android build and might just be something that HTC have developed and are reserving for their own HTC Sense powered phones

Ocean Ko -

Excellent instructions. Fixed my camera, flash and proximity sensor. due to ribbon cable that joins the sub board to the main board. as soon as I pulled the board apart the ribbon cable header just fell out of its socket. You need to add remove the other ribbon cables as well otherwise some novice may inadvertently damage the connectors.
