"Task switcher":best thing on 2.4/4.0!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Drzfr3shboialex:
True
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] YetAnother:
Task switcher is nice. Miss that since I moved from my BB.

Should swap space be more applicable and usable now?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PharmCAT:
How is "Task Switcher" different form what we have now, "Hold Home"?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ace42:
No one knows, it could look like the 3D switcher in Win7/Vista....ICS native phones are supposedly going to have no buttons, removing the hold home feature. But it might still be there, no one has seen it in action just yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sarg92:
Matias Duarte, Android UX guy, said holding the home button to switch apps requires the user to wait a second or less whereas it should be instant. So in Honeycomb it is pretty much instant to switch apps.

no honeycomb version for smartphones so?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lowandbehold:
I really don't know what you mean by that comment...but honeycomb was never developed to work on a phone. It was made for tablets only, whereas Ice Cream Sandwich is being developed to work on both. Also, honeycomb was ported to phones but it was lacking required drivers..such as to make a phone call, which tablets are not capable of...so you basically had yourself a mini tablet.

Hey look, ICS was snuck into a lucky Nexus S! Here's a 2-minute video showing its features.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fliparsenal:
I'm not too sure myself if the leaked video is real or not, however what irks me is how people seem to be disappointed at googles lack of "cosmetic" changes.

Really?

It took ios five iterations before making major design changes to their software the- ability to change your wallpaper and implementation of folders. What they added the most was features. What google accomplished with gingerbread most was making the OS look as if it was made by one person and ICS looks no different.

WinPho7 Mango? Still looking square. What was added? FEATURES.

What I look forward to most is the the solution to fragmentation that plaguing the OS and talks of being optimized for dual core devices. At this age of Android design takes a backstage to performance.

Too ugly for you? Slap ADW or Launcher Pro and call it a day.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jastonas:
Is there any way this video can be fake?

If so, I don't mind, if this kind of launcher and features can be just emulated, I want them!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ale0crysis:
Not fake, 100% real!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dc959:
someone needs to contact this guy and walk him through dumping the rom for everyone to tear apart

:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Toss3:
Could definitely be a fake, but as the current nonofficial ICS launcher doesn't look nearly as polished as the one in the video I'd say this is the real deal.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17890773#post17890773

Can't help but wonder why google don't lower the DPI from 240 and make some high-res icons. This compared to WP and iOS looks pretty bad imho, but hopefully we'll have custom themes soon enough.

Google really should hire some better designers.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] T-Macgnolia:
Ok every one I have been looking through this thread and I do not see any post like this so I will make it.

I have been watching the video pretty close over and over to see what I notice about the Android on version on the phone.

First thing is that you can access the camera from the lock screen. This is already a feature in HTC Sense 3.0 and 3.5. Plus you can access more than just the camera. Maybe you can set what you access from the lock screen on ICS who knows?

The camera UI seems to be revamped to be a little more like the camera UI in HTC Sense 3.0 and 3.5 also but not exactly like it. Just with the layout ant the rotating icons. the camera does seem to have a panoramic mode now.

The notifications bottom bar is different and a feature from Honey comb shows up in the notifications too. The little EQ looking quick access icon that you use to pull up a menu in the notifications on Honeycomb that acts like quick settings.

The scrollable running apps thumbnails from Honeycomb make a appearance in the video. I personally love that feature of Honeycomb.

Now we get to see the settings for a sec in the video. I notce the settings are now categorized. You can see clearly to of them in the video, one is Personal and the other is System. Also I noticed it is a Backup & reset in settings, it is Development options, and Language & keyboard has changed to Language & input.

And where in Honeycomb you you have a My Apps tab and a All Apps tab in the App Tray. The System in the video has a Apps tab and a Widgets tab in the App Tray.

Last thing I noticed is the person doing the video only hits the menu button once in the whole video even though their finger stops over it several times. th one time the do touch the menu soft key is when they are on the home screen. this brings up a menu that has Wallpaper, Manage Apps, and Help in it.

Well there is my run down on the video. It could be real and it could be fake, we will just have to wait and see. I would also like to give a shout out to my buddy J-Bird191512101 for helping me watch the video and find the things I mentioned.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] er0c:
Wow, this thing looks pretty boss. Like someone said already - I wonder what the Widget tab is for. Hopefully Google amps this sucker up to 11 :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NightForce:

i tested the ice cream sandwich launcher, and it works very well. I can`t wait! :):):):)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] beanboy89:
Looks like there's a new system font. Kind of looks like something based on Helvetica/Arial. Not sure if I like it. Droid Sans was an awesome font.

Anyone working on a CM7 IceCream-Theme? :D

And does someone know a launcher with 4 configurable Icons in the dock?

Edit: About the Fake rumors

I heard that the source of these pictures is the same source as of gingerbread leaks last year which were real.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tylermaciaszek:
you know everyone is going to speculate. but remeber this release come in october and for all we know this could be a earlier version of ice cream sandwhich i doubt google would let an official version get leaked so early. i dont think these images are fake! only time will tell
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Drzfr3shboialex:
Guys it says its not even close to being done plus its missing the holographic ui from honeycomb that google promised
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CuBz90:
It's fake, the following image says it all...

Notice the version?

The real ice cream sandwich would have the version NUMBER, but nobody knows whether it will be 4.0 or 2.4 so that just proves its a fake...because they obviously didn't know what version number to.put

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alanwu:

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OrionBG:
Or..even Google themselves have not yet made their mind on a version number!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Buccellati:
I think it is interesting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aFo3262:
^ Rootzwiki says that the source they got these screenshots from was the same as the ones who leaked Gingerbread as well. It's quite possible they could use ICS internally and haven't decided on a number for it yet(4.0?).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jjsoviet:
Google themselves haven't made a firm decision regarding the version number of ICS. So putting in just the version name is their only way to identify the build.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vitusdoom:
Cool! I just hope its just for dual-core devices. hehehe. (just a joke. peace) :P
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Drzfr3shboialex:
I think its real because normally when its fake google, htc, etc come out and say it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LordManhattan:
I call fake. But if this is the real deal, well, i'm saying bye bye to Android in october. This looks like **** and Google better fire their "designers".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mjordan79:
Why Android "2.4"? I thought the official name will be "4.0" for every platform...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mjordan79:
There are not sufficient elements to say this is "****". Also, it is clearly stated this is in very early stage of development. You trolls don't miss a single opportunity to easily bashing things that can't be even evaluated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gio.ducatti:
cool, thanks for sharing!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LordManhattan:
Taken from Engadget:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
It looks horrible. If this is real, it's another reason to stick to froyo. I've never missed any of the features of gingerbread anyways.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FC1032:
I agree, it looks pretty cut and paste at this point. I was expecting a bit more XD. I'm fine with gingerbread, also alright with honeycomb, but this looks a bit like a forceful merge so far: There's cyan here, there's a green power widget there (and hopefully it won't have orange overscroll)... some elements are all sharp corners, others have rounded :( I really wish it was at least consistent

I hope its fake too. I'm quite upset by this :( even froyo seems alittle more consistent.

Hopefully its nicer in the final builds.

Someone noted that the little icon on the bottom right is the task switcher (I hope it serves that function too! But if it is, shouldn't it be available at all times EVERYWHERE? Seems pointless to have to go to the homescreen for that.

Why does this pic have such obvious backlighting on the screen? The others have really deep blacks. Or is it just actually coloured like that in the settings menu?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] plasticdarlow:
I really think that google should be designing the ui to look like the web interface. Streamline the entire look and feel.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FC1032:
Yes :) google plus on the web and the google market on the phone looks great too
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thelastredshirt:
4 icons at the bottom? Not that I use the stock launcher normally, but if this is real, it's just asking for trouble from a certain fruit company.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] juzz86:
It's on a G2x :p /jk

Possibly on the i9023 S-LCD Nexus S. Possibly just a mock-up. Who knows? It does look like it's being held at a bit of an angle, and I believe the i9023 didn't have the best of LCDs. It also looks like the camera used to take the shots was ****house.

I agree with the consistency comments, it would be nice to see blue/green throughout. Definitely a fan of that Launcher, though :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] juzz86:
With their current attitude, getting out of bed is asking for trouble from Apple :p
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ser Gilgoroth:
I too find the green power widget odd for something that is supposedly blue in theme. I suppose time will tell.

Well played! :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaXmax:
Woah... Well, looking forward for cyanogenmod 8 with tablet tweaks... Is gonna be the best on my upcoming nexus s...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] juzz86:
Except they'll have to call it GreenMod and change the colour scheme if Google goes with Cyan ;)

Personally, I'd like to see WhiteMod. Majority black and minimal white would be cool.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pzvv:
Looks too fake. Why does the widget say bluetooth is enabled but theres no icon in the status bar? I dont beleive their changing it because all of the others(Gmail) are the same.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] funkyblue04:
I'm hoping for something that can beat Apple. Make it easier to develop games etc. Tired of Games/Apps going to the iPhone first, then crappy ports for Android as an after thought.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mistawolfe:
If you look closely at the status bar you can see a faint bluetooth icon. It's faint because it probably isn't paired with a device - once paired it becomes more visible.

My two cents...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mattykinsx:
I don't see anything impressive about this.

I hope its not real.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
Too early to be sure of anything right now. All i know is i won't be in such a hurry to try ICS that i revert to stock. I'll be waiting for the Cyanogenmod offerings!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] funkyblue04:
ICS should be so good, Cyanogenmod is not needed...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FC1032:
LOL XD!!!

Well I seriously hope this build... or whatever THIS is, gets fixed.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nevrlow:
