I'm trying your rom (coming from cm7.) I just wanted my camera/camcorder to take nice shots. I didn't expect this rom would actually perform well, but it does. Good work! The only thing I don't like is the stock Gallery, but even that performs alright on this rom. (Actually, the Verizon branding on the lockscreen and notification menu bother me a little too.) Quickpic would make this awesome if it played nice with the Camera app!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Haha well thanks, I suppose. I'm glad it surpassed your expectations. Yeah I tried to integrate the CM7 3D gallery in, but it doesn't play nice with the camera and I feel like including QuickPic in the rom would be a violation of the developers rights. But I do feel your pain on the stock gallery.

Hey guys,

I just flashed eclipse 0.22 on my dx2 and it had no signal bars and the phone number information on the settings -status tab was changed to 000-000-4899.

I restored it to my backup that I made right before flashing to eclipse rom and it is still the same. The signal bars went normal after I rebooted with pulling my battery out.

So I am running on a rooted gingerbread right now, and dont have any clue about what should I do.

I am thinking about SBFing to stock Froyo right now.

Anyone that can help me?

With all the bull**** Apple is saying they have patented that Android is copying (such as slide to unlock), I've been thinking... Wouldn't it be great if all Android devices moved to edge-to-edge displays then claimed ownership when Apple ends up doing the same thing?

For that matter, if Android gets rid of physical buttons before Apple there's another thing Android can claim. With Android devices being released all year and Apple devices once annually, Android should start hitting all of the hardware innovations at least 1 quarter before Apple and it will start to appear that Apple is copying Android and EVERYTHING that iOS 5 does is copied is already in use by either Android and/or Windows mobile (you know it's bad when Windows Mobile does something before you).

I'm not really an Apply or Android fanboi. I liked Apple when it offered a superior product and now I like Android because it offers a superior product. I'm an economist-to-be and I hate the monopolization of information. Classic case of humanity holding back humanity. If the last decade has taught us anything it should be that open-source beats EVERYTHING (... eventually... if people like the initial product) Because no company can compete with the entire world being your potential developers.

And yeah, Samsung OBVIOUSLY copies the iPhone. BUT the operating system is superior and that's what people want. The quality of an iPhone hardware (minus ****ty antennas of course) with the freedom of Android.

Apple needs to allow developers the freedom that Android allows and I prey to god that that is why they are hiring all the jailbreakers/jailbreak app developers... because the best thing in the world for Android is a better iPhone.
[General Topics] MartyLK:
That's not true. I own a Samsung phone and other Samsung media devices and from my experience, Samsung doesn't know the first thing about software creation. My Infuse is a joke for reliability and functionality. My P3 and other Samsung MP3 players are horrendous for the UI. My Infuse, though, has been the buggiest and most unreliable smartphone I've owned since my Palm Treo 680.

I have a lot of electronic gadgets, several smartphones among them, and the iPhone 4 has been the most reliable and trouble-free smartphone I've ever owned. It's boring as hell, but it is reliable and the OS is superb.

As far as Apple copying others...are you saying that if a company copied Apple for many years and then Apple implements a feature similar to the company that has been copying Apple and infringing Apple's patents, it's unfair? Where, then, was the the unfairness when the other companies were copying Apple?

By the way, if Samsung wants to put out software as lousy as they are with their Smartphones, I hope Apple does stop them...throughout the world. Samsung's software is second to none for being horrible. Let Apple do us all a favor and put an end to their smartphones until Samsung gets off its high-horse and acknowledges how horrible their software is and then does something effective about remedying it.

Competition breeds innovation. For example, there are plenty of apps that get made for iPhone that are eventually ported over to Android.
[General Topics] iLiberate:
1) I guess I don't care about sense or touchwiz or motoblur ect. it doesn't matter because with Android I have the freedom to remove it.

2) All Apple has ever done is copy others and clean it up. I guess you can all that innovation if you like and I won't argue. I'm saying that patents in general are bad for innovation and in general it's better for consumers if company A copies all the the things that company B does right and tries to fix all the the things that company B does wrong. That is evolution. I don't think evolution should be illegal. And assuming that Apple hardware and software are better than Samsung's and the phones are priced similarly a rational consumer would never purchase a Samsung phone, and that obviously isn't the case.

Aside from that, I'm 100% sure that Apple infringes upon patents held by numerous other companies. All large corporations do. Most don't go suing everyone when it happens. If Apple thinks they are so much better than Android then just one up Android at every turn and they will always hold more market share.

3) If Samsung is truly that horrible then Apple shouldn't have to sue them. No one would buy their products and they will go out of business.

You forget most of us really do not care about the "retail software" in the phone. All the phones that are sold IMHO have real crap for their oem software. That is why we are here. As far as phones go My Galaxy phone has been beyond great in so many ways and is hands down so much better than the Iphone and its ios. People forget that the Galaxy phone was released at the same time of the Iphone 3 and it still outperforms the Iphone 4. So to me, hardware that provides that longevity and flexibility is quite notable

And I love iPhone for reliability just as Apple users love Macs for reliability. I don't care so much for reliability anymore. I care about flexibility & freedom. I don't like that access to 90% of my iPhone is locked off. I don't like a boring screen full of little squares. I'm glad that Apple exists for those people who use to get Viruses once a week on their PCs, I don't plan to ever get a virus on my PC and if I do I know how to fix it. Just like my phone, I know Android takes time to tweak but I like the option to put 1000 hours into my phone to make it what I want it to be but that isn't the point of this thread really. I'm just thinking that two years from now Android will hold all the patents and Apple will regret this petty bull****.

And really? Aside from those features, WTF is in iOS 5? They haven't done ANYTHING innovative. And I was planning to get an iPhone 5 all year because I expected them to take everything from Android AND expand and they didn't. They played it safe. And on top of that they have numerous updates all year and ALL they really do is annoy jail breakers.

One could argue that they have all these outdated features being added because they only really expand features once a year, and that may be a great argument but to me it's just another reason to be pissed off at Apple.

"If Apple was honorable... -- not going ballistic over generic features that everyone shares -- no one would bat an eye. But Apple is still the biggest kid in the sandbox, and when it wants to take its ball and go home, it does so with a big public show[,but] Apple running off with someone else's ball isn't a problem at all." - Mike Schuster http://www.minyanville.com/dailyfeed/2011/06/07/apples-ios-5-directly-lifts/

Well Apple said that Samsung copied their iPad design and there were dozens of tablets YEARS before the iPad with the exact same design. No one sued Apple for using a design already used in the past because it's expected in the industry. A tablet is merely a laptop without a keyboard.

The slide to unlock existed before the iPhone but Apple made it prettier so they think they own it now.

Android at it's core is much much different than iOS. The apps are the same obviously but the apps are not made by Apple or Android. They are made by the users and you know what? Blackberry had apps long before the iPhone existed.

Apple stole a lot of great ideas from a lot of other companies and made it partially open source called it innovation (iOS & Android would both be worthless if it weren't for all the app developers) and I'm glad they did it... I just don't think they have the right to sue people now for doing the very thing they did once upon a time.

Apple doesn't copy? Nokia and blackberry were on the block playing smartphone before apple made it cool to have one. I still see apple users shoving their products literally in other peoples faces saying look at me! look at me! The only truly innovative thing, besides making capacitive ui's very functional, is their marketing. Apples marketing has made most of their user base tools and fools. The rest actually need a smartphone and probably would jump ship to android or windows if that was the necessary flavor of their lifestyle/work. Apple equates to about as generic as you can get.

[General Topics] iLiberate:
Exactly. Apple merely popularized something that existed long before the iPhone and because they popularized it they seem to think that all of their "innovations" were unique and original concepts but it is quite the contrary and the average person doesn't know any better.
[General Topics] ph00ny:
i would definitely credit them for the idea of ecosystem being driven by appstore and itunes. In terms of device and overall layout, I've had similar layouts on my winmo devices for years prior to the iphone release
[General Topics] iLiberate:
iTunes at it's inception was merely a pay-for Napster (obviously it has come a long long way), and it's so simple that it still baffles me to this day that it has not been copied and innovated.

Yeah the app store was genius, to have an entire OS based off user made content and take 30% but I think that the average person tends to want to give Apple the credit for all the applications in the app store and attribute them to the Apple product and that is ridiculous. IMHO what Apple really did to revolutionize the cell phone operating system was to make it the most open source project at it's inception and I think that what makes Android better is that it's more open. Without the open source side of iPhone, it's a pretty screen with a calculator, a compass, notes, email... a bunch of junk really. A glorified iPod/simple smart phone. The users make or break Android AND iOS and THAT is why they are so similar. It's essentially the same body of people moving the innovations on both sides, but Android allows that same body of people more power over their OS and while that made it harder to get Android moving, it will be the reason why Apple will never be able to keep up - unless they open up more.

Apple was a great alternative to Windows because Macs provided a more efficient alternative to the PC (and for the record I have never and will never own a Mac unless it's a hackintosh - not against the operating system just against paying twice as much for hardware I could put together myself to have a different OS), and they took the same approach to their iOS and it'll beat Windows every time but nothing can beat a software package that has the whole world developing & improving every aspect of the software.

As far as I'm concerned, it's all economics. Destroy the shackles that bind you, increase freedom, allow everyone to have input, increase efficiency, enjoy the bounty.
