I can help you beta test it on my Motorola Atrix and LG Optimus One if you need :)
[Android Software Development] GazaIan:
I'm a myTouch 4G user available for testing. The launcher just blew me away.
[Android Software Development] I Am Marino:
This would look great on the Rezound or Gnex.

Forgot to mention, may be a beta tester/tester on Transformer Prime too.

I have my X10 MP and, on April, Xperia S.

Just a thought, but have you thought about Kickstarter.com to raise funds?
[Android Software Development] :
US only. Indiegogo works everywhere

Edit: Updated perks on Indiegogo. You can donate even 1$ and changed donations amount so more people can help

[Android Software Development] :
Ok this is very strange. Our fund raising on indiegogo got over 16k USD from a guy in multiple payments. Big fan or spam? :O
[Android Software Development] gab1972:
Oh man, I'd be cautious of that. If it's anything like kickstarter, I'm sure they'll be liable to pony up the money, but you never know.
[Android Software Development] :
You're right. Emailed them asking to check if everything is alright. Will wait to see the answer.

Edit: money is gone...seems like they had a problem with the site

ide love to beta test also btw. i have an lg thrill 4g omap4430 dual core dual channel ram.

i also have a question regarding... i want to make a rom for my device with all of these apps as well as a themed framework ui for the rest.of the phone...

will you guys be allowing developers to do this for roms or not. or have u even considered the possibilty yet. i would love to know.

Sent from my LG Thrill 4G...
[Android Software Development] :
Yes I looked into it. Right now there are two options. One is make our own ROM later. And second use the root features of the UI to do clean ups of ROMs. And I could allow it with ads in place. No issues with that.

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G
[Android Software Development] dmbardal:
Love the work you guys put into this.

Donated \ bought the WP7 Pack,

and would love to beta-test this aswell on my SE Xperia Arc S.

Keep it up! :)

Edit: Since WP7 are now completely free, will we who bought WP7 get WP8 ?
[Android Software Development] Trekfan422991:
well if you make a rom team specifically for making roms for different devices using the ui i would be happy to be a team member and release one for my device under the team name..

and what about if they want to remove ads? just have a link in the rom thread of where to pay the 1.99?
[Android Software Development] :
In app purchase for ads free. It will be there so everyone can see

The ideia here is to have all the good things with a complete Metro UI, that is so sexy.

@topic: I don't want to send another email just to that. I suggest, if possible, to make possible to add widgets on the launcher, but not in the Launcher 7 way, it make the widgets don't look nice. Make the tiles and, when a widget is added, it stays on the gay between the widgets. I will try to make a paint fast edition to try to explain when I go to the PC. No abilities on Photoshop.
[Android Software Development] gab1972:
I think, this is a good idea because if you want really that, make a Windows Phone UI and say thanks to Android for giving me the ability to customize how I like it.

Remember:

He didn't say he was copying WP8, he was *inspired* by it

To Each His Own

If you don't like it, why are you even here commenting? Move on to a post that you agree with

Android is the only OS that inspires creativity. Anything different *IS* creativity. Thereore, insofacto, Android = Creativity
[Android Software Development] :
Thanks for the support.

As I said on Twitter(SkyDroid UI) there will be an AI implemented. What things would you like to see or believe will make it truly smart?

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G
[Android Software Development] Felimenta97:
Support to small screens?

No, just kidding to the AI. Maybe something that speak to us: ''New message'' (I need to explain?). Or ''download complete'' (again, need to explain?)Everything implemented on the package, if possible. Or as an add on. Dunno, maybe something like that. I send a email to your parter speaking of some UI to the settings app, hope he spoke to you about it, and my suggestion some posts ago.

Do you have a prediction of, more or less, the size of the package (or the main thing with the add ons, if do this way)?
[Android Software Development] :
Yep got that settings suggestions. And that's just text to speech. No need for an AI for that.

About package size....can't say for certain..a good guess will be less then 30mb

I'd like to see the notification/status bar get more use. POPUP 7 listed a concept but never followed through on it. Something like this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1235414) would be great [the picture in the first post that they refer to as a concept].

Launcher7 does a nice job of handling widgets and tiles. You can change colors, icons, actions, etc. Give us the option to sidescroll or up/down scroll. I like the up/down scroll for the launcher.

For a music player (if you're planning on one):

- please implement a static shuffle list. That is, when you shuffle your music, make it so a shuffled list is generated and played so that you can rewind to the last song that was played in the shuffle list. ZPlayer messes this up, UberMusic gets it right.

- please implement a "Favorite" button. Much like iTunes has where you can click the heart and it makes a new Favorite playlist. ZPlayer gets this right, UberMusic doesn't.

- implement the use of podcasts. ZPlayer gets this right.

Facebook:

Skin it with a metro look if possible.

Text Messaging:

Support for MMS!

EMail:

Support for ActiveSync would be nice

Ability to show pictures

View as html

Love your dialer...don't touch it!

Contacts:

Ability to add your own picture.

Sync contacts with Facebook, Twitter, etc

I'm sure I'll think of more stuff.
[Android Software Development] :
Something like popup7 is already planned, but I will take the concept one step further.

As for the launcher no up/down scroll. Sorry wp7 UI not the goal here. And yes lots of customization options and a new concept which you will see in the promo video. Will change the way how you interact with your phone :D . Let's just say the homescreen will be the center of most of your tasks.

Static shuffle list will be in the player. All social networking support will be part of people app.

MMS is a must for SMS app.

Email will have all those and a couple of more.

That should be my answers. :)

[Android Software Development] gab1972:
I only referred WP7 as an example. I know this is all going to be different, but side-scrolling is offered as native Android. So with that, I'm sure typical Android UI is not the goal here. ;) Personally, I like the up/down scrolling. But if you have cool stuff planned, I'll take whatever you develop.
[Android Software Development] sergioalvarezmac:
OMG!!!! It´s incredible... This is going to be great!

P.S. I just make a donation for this project in your indiegogo. (sergioalvarez.imac)
[Android Software Development] :
I know side scroll for launcher is a android native. And after all isn't it better to have the best of both world? And the UI is just inspired not copied :)

[Android Software Development] punshkin:
I cant wait to see more of this suite :D

can you show another image? Please... :rolleyes:
[Android Software Development] Felimenta97:
How the app drawer is going to be? Android way or WP7 way? Maybe a option to choose? And make it possible to create folders on the app drawer.

The free one will be Limited (number of days of use or without some options) or Ad supported? I preffer, Ad suported, will be phisically hard to me to donate/buy it, but don't make ads intrusive or annoying.
[Android Software Development] ajeevlal:
does the new UI support true landscape mode? i mean the menu bar at the bottom in landscape mode!
[Android Software Development] Felimenta97:
Fixed :p

+ 1 on that.
[Android Software Development] :
Did you read the first post? Have you seen the pic? ...you know answers are there :)

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G
[Android Software Development] gab1972:
It seems like the best way will be to wait until the beta comes out [or even an alpha release] and see what people think.
[Android Software Development] :
No alpha. UI will be done after every other feature has been done and tested to be bug free.

Also I could try to explain in detail why no pure wp7/8 or w8 UI but in a couple of posts this message will be lost.

Two main reasons

1) As a project manager and owner I am investing several k USD(and a good size comes from your donations) in this thing. Would you or I risk loosing it all just because M$ decides to take action later? I seriously doubt that...

2) Copying wp7/8 or w8 just as M$ envisioned it is a serious lack of creativity. I am creating something new here. I don't know if everyone will like it and I don't think everyone will(something to everyone tastes doesn't exist).

So for the start no vertical slide-scroll as homescreen navigation(doesn't apply to subsystems like app drawer which will have it), no standard pivot(it has a major design flow btw much like the first...) and a couple of more things. So please guys stop requesting pure wp7 UI stuff. If you want that UI download wp7 home or launcher7 or any other wp7 looking apps. This is not WP7 UI...how many times do I have to state this..I really thought I was clear about it :)

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G
[Android Software Development] gab1972:
I think we are the ones who weren't clear...I (we) never said this was going to be like WP7/8. I even stated in at least two of my posts that you said you were *inspired* by it. I agree with your points that you don't want M$ coming after you.

As far as the up/down scrolling...I only mentioned it because it's a feature that I like. M$ isn't the only ones to implement this. There are other themes/ROMs that have implemented that. Besides that, I said I was fine that it wasn't in there. I said I would accept whatever design you developed. So for that matter, lets not mention up/down scrolling anymore so that you don't misinterpret what I'm saying.

There's no need to get defensive. We were just asking questions about what is going to be included and if you were doing this/that.
[Android Software Development] :
I know. Sorry if I have been a little rough. Guess I'm just tired of wp7 stuff or just answering same thing over and over again....But UI is a long way from now in anycase. I would love to hear suggestions regarding more features if you have any. That is what we're working on and that should be the focus for now.

Edit: A small teaser feature to get spirits up again. You will be able to send/receive emails,set agenda appointments, use social networks and many others with absolutely no internet connection.
[Android Software Development] gab1972:
You're going to utilize the SMS features? That will be a big selling point as some people have limited data plans.
[Android Software Development] :
Yes I will. As I said I want to innovate not copy :D .

Yesterday I tried to install a custom rom on my HTC Sensation. The sensation had the Dutch Vodafone ROM, updated to the newest version.

I started by following this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 to the letter and did not encounter any problems.

Then I read a post about the InsertCoin ROM, and started with the recommended download and install of PG58IMG.zip. I did not install the ROM yet. Upon rebooting after installation of PG58IMG.zip the phone now seems to be in a boot loop, it boots untill the "Quitely Brilliant" appears and then reboots again. I removed PG58IMG.zip and reinstalled su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip (as per suggestion in another thread about a boot looped phone). However the phone refuses to install it.

Is there anything I can do the get my phone out of this bootloop?
