As much as I hate to admit it, I think webOS's fate as a stand-alone OS has been sealed. My honest opinion is that what we know as webOS today will live on as a major redux of Android. It's already showing up in the form of modified Enyo apps on ICS and a modified version of touch-to-share. Being Linux-based will make it easier to incorporate the best features into Android now that the source code is being released. I still follow the threads here and on WebOS Nation because I really miss webOS but the lack of development and sub-par hardware makes it impossible for me continue with it. My work requires certain apps that webOS simply doesn't have and that's such a shame. Us old dinosaurs (yeah, I've been through a mid-life crisis and a heart attack so I qualify) are very resistant to change but there's nothing wrong with keeping up with new technologies.

Pre- & TouchPad

My pre is retired and used as a media player on webOS 2.1 30% of the time, it works every time lol. It's really showing it's age but I keep it going because I just can't seem to find a capable media player on Android that will pass media metadata to my receiver as well as webOS 2.1

TouchPad is stock and fantastic the way it is, no problems.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pflaume:
I own a HP Pre3 running 2.2.4, bought it on ebay.

I'm using Advanced Device Menu tweaks and some browser tweaks.

Didn't get into developing now, may I try to get into it when I get more time.

What I still miss is a onscreen keyboard. Having that and maybe a few more apps, webOS would be THE KILLER OS.

I just picked up a pair of Veers (one black, one white). Can't wait. They should be here early next week. I get to practice Dogbert's Unlock method and then figure out how to use Impostah to put a profile on them without wiping my Pre 2 so I can test drive them. :D

Another dinosaur here

I never got into the smart phone thing so I missed out on the pre and pre plus rush. I'm still looking for a pre plus or pre2 but have 2 touchpads. While there are advantages to android with the many apps out there, I continue to operate with webOS on the touchpad. I am a purchasing officer for an export corporation and use my touchpad daily for the business. The thing I don't understand is the common rant from folks who say that their webOS device is useless without android. What apps do you (really) need that are not available within the webOS or preware market? I find that everything I need to operate my business is available within the webOS community. My touchpad allows me to be productive in the field. I do not have android installed on my touchpad. My wife had classicnerd android on hers but that's for the games.:D

I have had to use a few work arounds for issues like a lack of camera but otherwise, the touchpad performs very well for my business needs. Yes, I could do more with an iPad or another (pure) android tablet but would be required to spend a great deal of cash for a minimal return.

Those of you who really want to be productive, tell me what app you find in android that you can't find a webOS equivalent for. Chances are that you could be surprised.

just sayin........

How did you get webos running on the HD2? Would you share a link please?
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] fatclue:
I think he/she meant that he/she used to have those webOS devices but now has a WinMo HD2. If not, I'm waiting on that link as well.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pflaume:
I doubt having webOS on a HD2 would be so satisfactory, because of the lack of the gesture area and that's what webOS is all about - in my opinion at least. For example the gestures to switch between two apps is something I use very often, so missing that would be a killjoy.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] fatclue:
Ever heard of sarcasm? We all know that webOS is not at the open source point yet where we can port it to other devices. According to HP, webOS should be fully open source by September of this year. It's going to be a very interesting fall season with all the goings on with webOS, Windows Phone 8 and even the rumored Jellybean on Android.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pflaume:
Yeah heard of sarcasm, just wanted to mention it ;)

I'm very excited about webOS going open source. Can't wait to see what happens with it and all the devices out there. May Pre3 and TP will get a big refresh :>
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] RumoredNow:
OpenMobile is being very tight lipped... But their ACL which would allow Android Apps on webOS is supposed to hit this fall as well.

Is it timed/synchronized with webOS Open Source release? IDK...

Yes the near future promises to be very exciting for webOS users.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pflaume:
ACL might be a great thing, but I heard rumors saying that it might be open for OEM's so that the public will have to buy a smartphone which will be shipped with the ACL. I asked OpenMobile on that and the marketing lady was not 100% sure if the ACL will be released to public, so there may be a release in app catalog or not, we'll see.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] RumoredNow:
Here's the email reply I received June 8th after my query:

"Thank you so much for your email. We are working diligently to deliver ACL across multiple mobile platforms. Unfortunately I do not have specific release dates at the moment, but I will reach out to you as soon as I have further information. Thank you again for taking the time to email OpenMobile. We are hoping to have an announcement in the very near future about a downloadable version of ACL - dates, timing, pricing, versions, support, etc. Please be kind enough to stay tuned for more information as soon as I am able to release it."
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pflaume:
Received a mail from them last night (took almost 7 weeks for answering, but thats ok):

"Thank you so much for reaching out to OpenMobile. As per your email and questions below, yes, OpenMobile is actively working to support ACL for the webOS. Unfortunately, I do not, however, have specific dates regarding the release timeframe, although we hope to be able to announce these in the very near future. And yes, I believe there will be a consumer purchase and download option from the AppCatalog, which will be simple to download, install and run (it would not require any technical assistance!). It is my understanding that the consumer download version will not be expensive."

I didn't find the reply I received back in march, but this one sounds much better :)

b) s3 .. simple as

and finally maybe the 1x .. webos has never had that great hardware, and now there is great, uptodate, hardware out there .. webos + that would be epic!

I just went to T-Mobile to buy the phone for my wife off contract as a surprise for her and the rep told me that because I don't have a contract with them and because I'm not authorized on my wife's contract I can't buy the phone for her. WTF...

I bought the phone off contract through Best Buy by calling in, still I wanted to get it immediately with no hassle, blows my mind.
[HTC One S] suhailtheboss:
thats not tmobile policy, but stores will sometimes do this when they have limited stock. saving the phones for contract renewals/activations so that they can actually make money. the reps only make 5 bucks when you buy a phone full price.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuffCookie:
i'm on T-Mobile's network (off contract) and have no intentions of switching carriers as T-Mobile has been cheap and provided excellent service in Philly.

i used to have an Amaze 4G which i sold to get an unlocked AT&T Galaxy Note. now i'm using my brother's G2 (awesome upgrade from the Note huh? :( )

so i'm wondering what my next phone should be and have narrowed it down to 3 choices.

HTC One S - not sure how to feel about this phone. updated sensation 4G? but great size and feel to the phone. fast fast fast S4 processor. having used the Note, i wish it had higher res and NFC capabilities. the plus here is that my brother is willing to get this phone for me for $200 using his upgrade.

Galaxy Nexus - i've always loved nexus phones. Direct Google updates, tremendous dev support, 720p screen, etc. but outdated internals (compared to what is currently available on the market)

Galaxy SIII - no concrete details yet, but willing to hold out until May 3rd...although i'm itchin to replace the G2

assuming the SIII is not all that it's hyped to be, then One S or Galaxy Nexus?

the One X would be nice, but i want to stay with T-Mobile...unless AT&T's version has hidden support for T-Mobiles AWS frequencies a la Galaxy Note.

Interesting comparison of the AT&T One X vs. international. Boot time on the AT&T version's pretty sluggish.

[YOUTUBE]qR7zfXL_RdA[/YOUTUBE]

Now the question. This is a still from the video. Look at the difference in the menus. The One X has the setting dots by themselves and the AT&T version has them overlay options from the app. Is this the way it's implemented in production?

For either side...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
This wasn't even a final build of the AT&T phone, notice the HTC branding on it on top, it probably didn't have the latest updates and such.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s.m.knipe:
I would say so; to the right it looks like a down arrow ("hide" maybe?)- maybe there is a gesture to call it up once hidden? That would be sweet (9/10 times I don't need a menu button when using something- being able to "call it up" for that 1/10 would be awesome and give more screen real-estate)

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ----------

I don't think this is the AT&T version. Here is a picture of the one @therulebookman was able to purchase early; note the AT&T logo at the top and the 1.73.502.1 software version (video's is 1.44.something).

I don't doubt that it is an S4 processor, but is definitely an unfinished build or test device...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] EGBTMagus:
I ran the test on our demo just now and scored 6700. So its accurate...

More interesting is that my Antutu benchmark shows GS3 stats. o_0
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Squeak22:
Yes, I believe that's actually also in a later rom version for the international version to that the one on the left hasn't been updated to. Alot of people complained about the weird placement of the menu key since the rest of the buttons are capacitive and you don't have the softkeys with the HOX.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] UMGixxer:
lol i just ran antutu on my captivate and 6700 is looking pretty damn good compared to 2900
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] designgears:
That is the AT&T version, but if you look at the top left you can see some odd etchings, early test device and software.

Ignore this video...

More than double the pixels on the htc one xl lowers the score in graphics. I do admit the cpu is doing well on the sgs2.

Regarding Tegra3 vs Snapdragon s4, antutu is about the best use case for a quadcore. There are few real world mobile apps that even max out a dual core. In general use the snapdragon s4 is only slightly slower.

Any update on the issue with the never ending "validating packages"?

I have the same issue. Was running it for the whole day until it reached 7000, then I canceled and tried again.

The weird fing is, when i tried it the first time, it worked very wuickly and without any issues. But as I had a far too small 500MB image, I tried it again. But since that, no success.

Is it possible that there are some old data kept somewhere?

Is it possible to do a clean start?

I tried already the "reset config" function.

Neverending Validating Packages, No Network Required same as previous poster...

I am having the same issue, I also have a Transformer TF-101

I had issues with the "other" Complete Linux Installer that resulted in I/O errors that I've read about being a problem on Transformer tablets or possibly NVidia Tegra tablets

I am using Linux Installer STD or "Galoula" linux installer

I e-mailed a note to support@galoula but it was kind of wordy and didn't include any attachments, don't know if I will get a reply

I did not mention to them that it was a TF-101

I will probably try debootstrap for myself in a while. I think they've put out a ****load of documentation and I can probably learn more from that documentation than I could by just running the app and installing...

Anyway, I too am not convinced that it's doing anything, I waited for 7000 last night and gave up.

Here is a screenshot of the last status report before I cancelled this time.

This is a really useful looking tool, that could save me a lot of time, but with ext2 filesystem I'm not sure how useful it would be...

Does anyone know how to get mkfs.ext4 on a transformer? It has kernel support, all of the existing filesystems are ext4. But no mkfs.ext3 or mkfs.ext4 seems to be available or on the disk already. I am thinking about preparing my loop file on another machine with some instructions from the wiki instead. It's just debootstrap... I already know how to use debootstrap. Hopefully this tool will recognize the installed system and prompt me to update my linuxchroot script, if it does that it would still be worthwhile to use.
