Android is like windows - comes in a ton of price ranges (free to high end). They gobble up an entire market that apple doesnt compete in (free-low end). Id even say that the low end hurts the android ecosystem even more than it helps (fragmentation of low power hardware + cheap users).

Surprisingly the iPhone 4 (verizon) in the USA has stopped Android growth while continuing growth for itself. There are strong rumors that the two other major carriers will adopt the iPhone 5 as well so the iPhone 5 may be the nail in the cofffin for Android in the US. But the us is a higher end market so the dynamics are different. Internationally, cheaper Android phones will still grow like crazy.
[General Topics] constance56:
I don't think that the iPhone 5 will kill of the Android either. Though the iPhone is undoubtedly the more popular of the two, there are still a lot of Android users out there that are giving them a ton of business.
[General Topics] vnvman:
The problem with iPhone5 is that it will cost about 3 times an android with the same specs (or usually better), it will never be "that" mainstream. It's more like a luxury good rather than a phone, and should regarded as such, in its own class.

Huh? What the hell are you talking about? When has that ever been the case? When the iPhone launches it will cost pretty much the same as a subsidized high end Android phone.

Imo android is a better os, I com from using winmo, and ios. I'm much happier since switching to android. I'm on my third android device now.
[General Topics] vnvman:
Well well...an iPhone4 here in Italy still costs about 779-799 € (unlocked), and over the internets you can't save more than 50€ on that, while a Nexus S is still relatively easy to be found at about 350€, and you can have a Galaxy S at even less (both have the same specs of an iPhone4 plus a bigger screen). When iPhone5 comes out it will cost about 799€, and in a couple months we'll get the Galaxy Z, which will cost about 400€ and sport a Tegra2.

Do you feel like there is a BIG difference between the said devices? If so, you think it's big enough to justify the extra 400€ you have to pay for the iPhone? :rolleyes:

[General Topics] constance56:
An iPhone may be of "lower quality" and has less specs but it is better marketed and has more apps made for it than any other phone. And you may not like it, but that's what a lot of people are looking for - just what everyone else has so it's easier to share, connect and basically be part of the crowd.

Of course phone geeks aren't going to like that and will know what phone will give 'em more bang for their buck. But sometimes, all someone wants is a phone that more people recognize and play the addictive Angry Birds on.
[General Topics] generalExpert:
Agreed. I find that all of my Blackberry friends want iPhone... When I tell about Android they glaze over. I realize the blackberry and iPhone crowd are one and the same.

What kind of gets me though is the fact that the goal of Android is to grow but the goal of the Android community (mostly) is to be different... So at some point, if successful, Android will then be the trendy option... When that happens what will we geeks do? webOS???

Hello,

Nice to see the activity in this new forum! Helps me a lot!

Question: Is it possible to change the blue color Asus TF uses for the clock/battery etc? Allso the loading screens with the blue glare.

Greetings!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] adiliyo:
it was a services.jar edit in 2.x, if i can ever get my computer to decompile/recomiple stuff properly, i could give it a shot.. :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Pacifik:
Yeah, you need to open the the systemui.apk, replace desired .png, repackage, and push into /system/app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] hasselaar_nl:
Thanks, i'm gonna try it this evening!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Hatman41:
The systemui.apk does not control the clock. It only controls the wifi connection and part of the battery. I belive that the services.jar controls the clock. I am still trying to figure that out but I do not know smali. I know this because I have 6 themes http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116139 and I have changed the battery and wifi on them all but no change to the clock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] adiliyo:
the loading screens, if you mean the blue circle that spins though, SHOULD be a image inside systemUI or framework-res (i really need to get off my butt and look at 3.x in regards to theming)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] hasselaar_nl:
Hey Pacifik, i've found the file status_bar_notification_area.xml in the SystemUi.apk. It's in the folder layout-xlarge. Theres an #colorcode, i believe from the clock. The only problem is i cant check because i get errors using apktool. It says 'exception in thread "main" brut etc etc etc... So i'm gonna figure that out first.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Hatman41:
Ok I can confirm that I was incorrect. It is in the systemui.apk it is in the SystemUI\res\layout-xlarge\status_bar_notification_area.xml line 14 thanks to Roach2010 for finding this.

<TextView android:textSize="40.0sp" android:textColor="#ff525e79" android:id="@id/time_solid" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:singleLine="true" />
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] hasselaar_nl:
Hey Hatman, sorry i called you Pacifik...

I hope it's the right code... only my SystemUI.apk is messed up on the TF. It keepsshowing the Asus blinking bootscreen. I've tried some things to restore but so far nothing helps.

Is it possible to install a complete new rom form sd or something like that?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Hatman41:
If you are rooted then just install Prime 1.5 and it will fix that. I have just added the themed clocks to all of my themes. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116139
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Pacifik:
If you have clockwork recovery you can reflash your rom or flashing a theme might fix it. What are you using?

Ladies and Gent, welcome to the League.

The reason this is called a league is... well, there are no higher rank, nay, no higher honour (note spelling), no higher responsibility than to be entrusted with the survival of the entire species.

We stand here, on the verge of devolution from thinking men and (hopefully) women into mindless beasts that crave the carnal consumption of cranial flesh. We, members of XDA, are entrusted with the mandate of continuing the thing that makes us humans worthy of the 21st century:

1. Continuous arguments on the internet on who is "better."

2. Continuous propagation of smartphone ROMs.

3. Continuous continuousism.

Therefore, I call all my brothers, if I may call all who are gathered here brothers (and sisters, of course), to stand strong and united! You are all worthy, for you have been called, and you have answered.

In this league, all men stand equal (in a hypothetical and metaphorical sense, because some of us are short and some of are tall, etc.), and there shall be no "greater distinction" between one, or the other. The first wave of recruits (everyone who posted above this) will be conferred a Knighthood™ of the LAZI and will receive title and land (I am still King of OT, right? :D). You may refer to your first post for your conferments.

First stanza was inspired by something Sir Terry Pratchett wrote in "Men at Arms", but I'm not sure where he lifted that from. Second stanza was inspired partially by RHCP's "Scar Tissue" (I think) MTV, and what I partially felt at times (I'm a chinese who can't read or write Chinese). The latter parts are inspired by Peter Sellers and is one of the most meaningful quotations to me:

So, if you asked me if it's original, I'd have to say; yes. But if you asked me if I came up with it completely on my own, I will have to cite my inspirations.
