I'm surprised this isn't more commonly requested. I only use my GV number for texts and don't subscribe to an SMS package, so I'd like to see this as well.
[HTC Sensation] aamir123:
So I see we have a great line up of roms here for our phones but I have yet to see a combo of CM7 & sense. I mean cm7 had its benefits but so does sense why not make the best of both world? Anyways just trying to introduce a new idea. Also sorry if this is in the Wong section.
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
No not it the wrong place. Let me try to answer this. It is kinda impossible because they are 2 totally different frameworks. Everything about them us different all the way down to the kernel. You can't necessarily merge the two. You can run senselike widgets on cm7. And you can take the sense out of sense roms but keep the contacts and what people do like about it. But it would be like combining a reptile with a mammal. They are just way too different all the way down and can't be mashed together.
[HTC Sensation] arzbhatia:
Agreed ^

The framework is just too different. SystemUI files are going to cause a conflict if not the framework.
[HTC Sensation] unfnknblvbl:
I think everyone have up on this idea back in the Hero days. There's a project called OpenSense, but I don't know anything about it.
[HTC Sensation] aamir123:
What I meant is modding CM7 to have the ring lockscreen and recently open apps etc. maybe even add the launcher
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
Lockscreen, launcher, and every other element is heavily dependent on the sense framework.

If you change all the frameworks, the rom is no longer CM7 ... its sense
[HTC Sensation] tlkh:
Easy.

Widget Locker has a "Sense 3" Slider what is a exact clone of the Sense 3 lockscreen, complete with all the animations.

As for Launcher, you can try GO Launcher(use Go Weather for the clock as well)

Hi im a noob lol, i know this has probably been answered but i would like to know how i can undrand my sensation xe from all the orange rubbish.

please help
[HTC Sensation] abs_rio:
If you root the phone, s-off, then you can install either a stock rooted ROM (no branding) or a custom ROM with tweaks.

Here's a good guide (note you can install any ROM after you've done part 1 and then part 2 if necessary)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
Has anyone tried this battery yet?

2300mah battery from Ebay

Do the GSM and CDMA version both use the same size battery? Would this one be a universal replacement?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
Its 2350, and doesn't say anything about NFC.

Also wouldn't it need a new back plate?

And no the LTE and GSM versions use a different battery shape completely. Not interchangable =/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 8steve8:
don't trust no-name battery capacity claims.

with the same battery tech, capacity will be basically a function of volume... so if it fits in the galaxy nexus, with the current cover... it's the same volume... so my guess is this is the same or less capacity in reality.

its possible its a more advanced battery technology, but for $6 on ebay , doubt it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
Do the GN batteries need to have an antenna for the NFC or is that integrated into the cover?

I don't have my GN yet, ordered from Amazon. Can't wait to get it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hiohokaybye:
The NFC is integrated in the battery, not the cover :)

And you don't need to buy a battery with NFC capability, it's not required
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
This. Some people here act like NFC is required for the phone to function..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MaelstromXC:
Correct me if I am wrong.

The antenna for the NFC is located in the Samsung battery that came with our phone. If we want NFC, we should get a battery that has built-in antenna too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
So, if we get a generic battery off Ebay, we'll lose the NFC function?

I agree, it's not a deal killer, not much you can do with NFC right now.
[Xoom General] TuxDude:
Just saw this mail from JBQ on 'Android Building' groups:

Could we expect ICS images for the Xoom soon ? :)

Unfortunately I'm unable to post a link to that google group page - You can check out the 'The source code for Android 4.0.3 is now available' email thread in the 'Android Building' google groups.
[Xoom General] redmaner:
You can't but I can

Sent from my GT-I9100 using CyanogenMod7
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
Does this mean we could literally put ICS on the xoom now, or is there still a step to take to get a working image?
[Xoom General] TuxDude:
JBQ just posted another email in the same thread releasing the proprietary binaries for the drivers, as well as the android-4.0.3_r1 for the AOSP git sources.

So I assume, if you build the AOSP sources with these binaries extracted in the right place, you'd be able to compile an image that would work on the Xoom.

I'm gonna try that tonight :)
[Xoom General] robbiev80:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/mjEzwvc_J4k

"Below are the direct links to the various proprietary binaries. The

web page will update in the next few hours."
[Xoom General] shakuyi:
how long does it take to compile from AOSP again? :P

EDIT: and no this is not a request for a ETA
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
Lol, if I knew how to do this, aosp for xoom would be released in as long ad it takes to compile it and make it flashable.

Is anyone who is able, willing to do this for us not in the know? Please!?
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
I think CyanogenMOD takes about 40 mins on a modern computer to build based on something I read. This will vary widely based on your CPU performance obviously. But this is probably a good ballpark: over 30 mins for a full build I'd say based on what I've read.
[Xoom General] g1ddy:
He said the xoom camera doesn't work =(
[Xoom General] AzN1337c0d3r:
I think it was something like 4 hours on a 2x quad-core machine with 16 GB of RAM. Can't be bothered to look up the source now.

I'm compiling it now on my dual-Xeon W5687 machine w/72 GB of RAM.

This guide is pretty good: http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/compile-ics

Follow the instructions for the Nexus and when you get to "lunch" this page will help:

http://source.android.com/source/building.html

3G/4G users want "full_stingray-userdebug".

Wi-Fi users want "full_wingray-userdebug".

New: Apparently you have to download the binaries and do a make clobber before you do a make according to this page: http://source.android.com/source/building-devices.html. Time to recompile :(

Note that is required that you use Ubuntu x64 (I'm currently using 10.04.3 LTS)
[Xoom General] shakuyi:
who said it doesnt work in 4.0.3? everything should work out of the box according to JBQ

Right now I am compiling for Xoom Wi-Fi (as it is the Xoom that I have). I have to go off to see my friend's graduation so I wont be back for 3 hours at least.

If the Wi-Fi one works, I'll compile 3G/4G if someone hasn't beaten me to the punch yet.
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
aaaand to some how release it for the rest of us...??? :) :D
[Xoom General] shakuyi:
eh how often do you hold this big thing to take a picture anyways lol, no HDMI sucks but no biggie never had a use for it but have the HDMI cable lol
[Xoom General] clamknuckle:
AzN1337c0d3r thanks! Looking forward to it!
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
Yeah, not a huge deal for me, but if we get ICS on the xoom, the speed and stability by itself is worth it!

am I correct in assuming that the camera and HDMI will eventually be fixed? We aren't talking permanent incompatibilities, are we?
[Xoom General] shakuyi:
lol no way will it be permanent we wont see an official update until they go those 2 items fixed, but it doesnt mean we wont have ROMs to use sooner than later!
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
These are most likely things that Motorola will have to handle themselves (especially the Camera).

Surprised by the lack of HDMI support however, I would have expected that part to be handled by the Tegra2-related bins. But not a big deal for me either.
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
That's what I figured, just thought it was odd that the AOSP is released "officially supporting" Xoom, and the camera and HDMI out don't work... Or, is it just a generic tablet AOSP build and only some of the drivers or something...?
[Xoom General] cj10488:
I would take a wifi xoom rom with the cam and hdmi not working just to have ICS. I mean I rarely use those and I dont think it would be too long before those are even working anyways.

JAmes
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
Ok, got it. I guess since the Xoom was the first Honeycomb tablet, I was under the impression that Google had their hands in it a little more, and would be able to supply a build that supported all functionality, but it makes sense that Moto has to get in there and do their thing too...

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

Totally agree, since I got the Galaxy Nexus, it is VERY hard to use my Xoom. it is sluggish and overall laggy... It is like Honeycomb was a temp build of what ICS would look like because android wanted to get into the tablet market but wasn't ready...

No insult to the honeycomb lovers intended, that's just how I feel... I mean, if you change the screen resolution in honeycomb, doesn't it literally pretty much become gingerbread?
[Xoom General] robbiev80:
I can't wait to have ICS on my Xoom. It needs it bad.
[Xoom General] willverduzco:
This is in no way development until someone here actually takes on a project to do something with the released images, etc. I would ordinarily close this, but this is interesting, so I'm moving to general.
[Xoom General] razorbladex401:
Building it (wifi version), will release it once it's running
[Xoom General] ScottRTL:
Yes it does... It kinda feels like I am driving a Ferrari with a Datsun's engine in it...

I really hope someone can create a build of ICS tonight!

I'm very new to the world of developing Windows Phone 7 applications. I have a strong grasp on object oriented programming and am learning C#. I'm done through Bob Tabor "Windows Phone 7 for Absoluete Beginners" series and I need to go ahead.

I had an application in my mind.

1. The app takes notes.

2. The user has to input in his dropbox credentials.

3. Everytime a new note is created, it MUST be synced to his dropbox account.

Can anyone please layout a roadmap for me? How must I proceed and what are the additional skills that I require?

Thank you very much for guiding me. :)

DO NOT USE SAMSUNG KIES!!!!!

ROOT the phone and flash a custom ROM from the Development section. Read the "Vibrant Bible" first and google things such as "how to root samsung vibrant" and "How to flash a rom samsung vibrant". Its not difficult and its your best option IMO.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boystuff:
there is no Official Gingerbread update from Samsung, goto the development sub forum and choose a 2.3 rom that works for you. personally i recommend CM7/Miui but if you want Touchwiz then go with something like simple honey.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
The best gingerbread based custom rom (in my opinion) is miui. Although it's no where near stock gingerbread in means of the UI, it's an amazing and truly custom ROM.

Look in my signature for my guide on flashing this ROM with ease. Best of luck and pm me if you need any help.

[Thunderbolt General] aislepathlight:
Hey all,

I have a Thunderbolt that I got the day before they killed unlimited data, and I have had so much trouble with it. Long story short, they have offered me a Razr or a Rezound as a replacemet. I'm much more interested in the Nexus, but they say that Nexus's discount codes are avalible yet.

So I don't really love the idea of waiting for 4 months for ICS on the Razr, not having a replacable battery, and huge bezels. And the Rezound is interesting, and feels a lot faster and smoother than the Razr, but after my experience with the Thunderbolt, not sure I am totally ready to go back. And I guess the most important thing is that the dev community will be much more focused on the Nexus, which coumpounds the ICS wait
[Thunderbolt General] Drachnem:
I had a Tbolt longer than all the other phones I had, which by the way makes 15 to date. The Tbolt with CM 7 is an unstoppable force. I have the Galaxy Nexus and its cool, but the Tbolt is still faster ATM and rock solid.

Don't judge a phone by it's stockness, Rzr is moto and moto is locked down. Take it back and get the Nexus.
[Thunderbolt General] davidstech11:
You said yourself they will not replace your Thunderbolt with the just released Nexus. So either take a replacement or keep the Thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt General] rcmarks314:
Why not ask for a new out of the box thunderbolt? Not a refurbished one.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisrach3:

I was in the VZW store the other day looking at the galaxy, the guy that helped me said his wife has the galaxy and will be returning it cuz it gets horrible 4g (in salt lake anyway). He had the Rezound and said he loves it. Anyway, where do I get the cm7 ROM? Not trying to steel this thread

If you want the official release from Samsung, you would need to download & install the Kies Mini software from Samsung. Once you've done that, click the menu in the upper left-hand corner to install the drivers. Plug your phone in via the USB cord, Kies Mini should recognize it and tell you that it can be updated. Hit the button, let it do it's thing (takes 10-20 minutes), and that's about it.

I'm just generally curious. What do we need before we can have our phones running fully functional ICS ROMS? Do we need the EVO3D source from HTC? If so, how long (best guess) until we see that? Thanks for indulging me :)
[HTC EVO 3D] skulhedface:
in a nutshell it would take source code (which is already available), a modified kernel or kernel source code (which are not available yet to my knowledge) and modified drivers, then 2-3 Weeks of porting and debugging and your MAYBE set to go.
