Would any dev or anybody that has messed with sense 4.0 direct me how to resize and center the tabs in the recent apps drawer, I am currently running Newts One S RLS1 and the app drawer tabs are off the right. I have no idea of what I'm doing but I would also like to place the icons under the tabs like in the PKMN Rom and I believe chubbz Sense Rom as well.

[Droid 2 General] utahrd:
Hello Gurus,

I have been reading up on performing ROM upgrades for the Droid2, and am almost ready to pull the trigger on CM7 for my Droid 2...

A few questions first....

I never accepted verizons upgrade from FROYO to GB, and disabled the automatic updates using Titanium Backup. My phone says "System Version is Version.2.3.20.a955.verizon.en.us" and it says "Android version is 2.2" The phone is rooted. I have installed Droid 2 bootstrap recovery and ROM manager. I have made a backup of my existing ROM. I have backed up all apps and data with Titanium.

1) Can I use the ROM Manager app to seamlessly install the CM7.2 stable release on this existing FROYO phone? I have read in a few places that you can only do so if you are already running GB, which I am not.

2) Is my current FIRMWARE version 2.3.20 (system verzion) or is it 2.2 (android version)? I am confused about the distinction.

3) Does the camera Work on CM7.2 stable with the droid 2?

4) Does Wifi tether work on CM7.2 stable with the droid 2?

Do you all think there are noticeable performance improvements, or should I be happy with my rooted froyo with everything working as is? I most highly value the wifi tether and dont want to lose camera.

Thanks for your time.

Utahrd
[Droid 2 General] aexol:
Hi there!

I don't know about #1, but as for the rest:

ad 2. Your current build is listed in the settings/about phone, under "Android version". Froyo is 2.2.x, GB is 2.3.x. System version should not concern you :)

ad 3. I belive problems happened on some occasions only on phones running nightly, but don't take my word for it and check it on cyanogen forums.

ad 4. There is no tethering in 7.2 :(

I hope that helped.

[Nokia Lumia 800] MS.:
The only thing i want right now is ability to have IM's working in a background :( If WP 7.8 (or IM developers) gives me that then i'll be happy even without WP8.

Ofcourse, WP 8 sounds really cool but probably i'll get a new phone for it once they come out. Higher screen resolution, more RAM and dual core CPU definitely won't harm :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] *Detection*:
At least they are going to remove the gap on the right side and file the screen with tiles this time rather than wasting the screen space with nothing

It will feel like a new phone with a bigger screen

[Nokia Lumia 800] OrionBG:
Nobody have ever told that current WP7 devices will get an upgrade to WP8! I'vе been writing here in the forum for moths that there will be no such upgrade but nobody listens! The new WP8 is based on Windows RT, not on WinCE. The new features won't be ported to WP7. I'll be selling my Lumia 800 too very soon but it is not Microsoft's fault that Nokia released its "new" models so late. And if you think for a sec, when WP8 is released near the end of this year it will be nearly an year after the release of the first Lumia phones! One year is more than enough device life if you ask me! Me personally rarely use a device even a full year!

So don't be pissed at Nokia or Microsoft. Nobody stepped on your throat telling you to buy the dying dinosaur from the shelf! :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] babu.rajiv2007:
Fail! Fail!

Its good to hear that Microsoft atleast considered WP 7.8 for the current devices...

And guess what? WP8 supports native code apps. WP 7.8 wouldn't.

That means, no guarranteed future app support. Now, that's bad. :(

Had higher expectations, and this how Microsoft treats us.
[Nokia Lumia 800] brianpee:
Some features will be coming and I'm pretty certain the tile size will be included for sure. Other features are hardware based and can't be ported.

[Nokia Lumia 800] brlag:
That's the fragmentation that every WP user bragged not have and it's worse then android because WP8 applications simple wont work in WP7.8 because of a software problem, not for hardware limitations. It's a mess.

I hope i get VoIP support and all native features that don't require hardware since future apps compatibility isn't going to happen.
[Nokia Lumia 800] rootkited:
WP8 is great...I work for a software development company and we have it for more than 4 months now running on a i5 tablet from Samsung...

7.5 is not a fail either... and i m pretty sure that 7.8 will do very well ...

[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
Well, the home experience is what I'm mostly looking forward to have on my Lumia. We're not getting much more than that, but with the current hardware anything more would have been pointless. This is just an appetizer to me tho, gotta start saving money for this fall, it's hard for me to keep a phone for more than 8 months anyway...
[Nokia Lumia 800] rootkited:
i agree since i've been switching phones often than my socks :-))

anyways, WP is an OS that we will bring us joy...i am pretty sure !
[Nokia Lumia 800] crnkoj:
Im not pissed, im disappointed, quite frankly anyone else who has a lumia 900/800 right now can have all the right to be pissed, they trusted nokia to have a good phone with good support and they simply didnt deliver, this way you destroy brand recognition and brand value. It all seems to be the plan of mr Elop to make Nokia worthless so that Miscrosoft can buy it.... Its misuse of brand trust.

About you using your device less than a year, one of two things comes to my mind: 1. you obviously have a lot of money 2. you dont spend your money wisely

And please dont take this as a rant or insult, but most people (especially in todays wicked economy) would prefer to have something they dearly paid for, for more than a year.
[Nokia Lumia 800] rootkited:
nokia was dead for years and they came back to life because of this WP ... with or without WP8 lumia will be usable for at least another year...same thing happened to devices stuck on Android 2.1, or those not able to use for example Siri .... this is another example of how the software market works together with the hardware producers ... you buy a pc today because of a game and tomorrow comes another game with higher requirements ....
[Nokia Lumia 800] crnkoj:
150e low end android phones are getting ics nowadays updated. oh and i have a n9, it has better and more functions than the lumia phones on 7.5 and amzingly it runs as smooth as the lumias on a 40% slower cpu and omg its still getting updates! Oh and btw nokia is bleeding money, the lumias dont help them at all momentarily, and with this fiasco im sure more people will go away from nokia...
[Nokia Lumia 800] maatn:
There is no reason to blame Nokia, Microsoft screwed up. Nokia does well in supporting their devices.

I don't care because I'm switching phones in the next few months, but if this news gets out fully then it will not do Nokia any good, they only have two non-legacy phones at the moment, and they are now officially legacy phones as well!
[Nokia Lumia 800] rootkited:
there might be low end phones with ics running ... custom or stock, i agree, but that means nothing....i had phones which were not low end and were not 150e and never got even gingerbread...

[Nokia Lumia 800] k4kya:
Seems legit

This update is pretty sound, it's understandable from a technical standpoint why they can't simply upgrade all our Lumia's to WP8. As soon as they were all about secure bootloaders for WP8, you knew that the update wouldn't make it to older devices. They can't "update" our SoCs!!!

Stuff we miss out on is all new hardware specific stuff. Which means we don't miss out on it because we haven't got the new hardware!

There is not much of a user experience to miss out on. Granted, WP8 targeted apps won't make it to the current user base, but I don't expect developers to get onto WP8 apps straight away. Until WP8 establishes a decent user base, there is not much incentive or revenue to be made from making WP8 targeted apps. I mean, look at Android, most developers are still targeting 2.3 because thats where the user base, and hence, revenue stream is.

All I know is, I'm happy I'm with Windows Phone now, knowing this stuff is the direction that MS is going in will make upgrading so much easier when the time eventually comes around, at which point the WP8 eco-system will (hopefully) be a bit more ready.

Now I feel like a cheap whore

http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_...ve/2012/06/20/announcing-windows-phone-8.aspx

I feel such a sucker for buying a Lumia 800 just a month ago. They do know how to make a customer feel "special" now don't they? Those mistakes remind me of the reason that Windows Mobile never worked for anyone but my sorry self and a small minority who unfortunately believed in Microsoft just a few year ago. Just to give you everyone else that might disagree with my frustrated opinion a clue: If that ever happened to Apple's or Google's customers, the customer's reaction would be just brutal.

They are clearly showing us that we were part of an experiment, a beta phase that never worked and they are just throwing us a bone (7.8 update) to fool us into believing that this was a well thought strategic move from a well respected software company. I am curious how can anyone feel alright by being treated such way.

Looks like the irony was on us:

[Nokia Lumia 800] sparx180:
People should be grateful we're getting something, i personally think its a good compromise, there wasnt a great chance we would get it anyway due to compatibility and the fact MS and manafacturers would be pissing money away if they gave older models the same update the new flagship models ship with.

This is a big year for MS so you can almost guarantee that windows 8, apollo and surface tablets will bring more attention to windows phone as a whole not just WP8 devices.
[Nokia Lumia 800] xpc21:
I think that like me every Lumias owners are feeling betrate cause a power and new phone likes those lefted behind....im felling right now just like when i bought a Motorola ATrix and knew from Motorola that they didnt have plans to upgrade to ICS....i wondered,so why they do power phone like this to soon left they behind? Of course is to sell a new one but it is so necessary to disrespect like this their customers?

I dunno if is Nokia ou Microsoft, but i was again believing in Nokia, i beleived in lumia and now felt betrated.

I just hope that this newer devices could fill in this sadness that the lacky of wp8 in Lumia did...

I just hope that they at least release this 7.8 soon to us, dont do like Google done with ICS.
[Nokia Lumia 800] HOFFERN342:
Thank you! I usually have my phones for at least 2 years, maybe even longer... and the seller in the store made me certain that I would get Windows Phone 8 (I asked him, and he said he knew.. now I won't get a refund of course, because I did not record him saying it). I got screwed by Nokia and MS today, and with no application support this phone will be completely useless... and by now, all developers will stop developing for the Windows Phone 7 platform too, since they will be preparing for the "big change". I hate you Microsoft, I hate you so much. This is my last MS product, forever.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Smok3y666:
I brought my Lumia 800 a month ago from eBay and after reading that it's not getting the WP8 update it's now heading straight back to eBay. I feel disappointed that this phone is not getting the update, I came from Android believing WP was the way to go but now i'm going back.

If lumia 800 gets an update of 7.8 that would be awesome. :D

bought my lumia 800 jus a month ago and i cant say im not disappointed.. i thought id be running apollo on my phone.. now have to do with 7.8..

is it really coming out by 27th or jus a rumor?? i wanna try it out asap n if not worthwhile im gonna sell my phone..
[Nokia Lumia 800] ricep:
the thing is, who's not dissapointed?

i'm a WP lover, but suddenly my 800's has a death sentence for only one reason: there will be a time when we'll stop having certain wp8-only apps.

Yeah, it's great to be upgraded in autumm to 7.8, but what will you feel when the first wp8 app that you really really need or love isn't available to you?

and why should I care about MS making at first a bad decision? I'm a developer, and if I took a wrong path from the beggining of a project (winCE in MS's case), it is my responsability to fix that problem for that client even after the job is finished.

but no, as I said MS is not supporting us, beta testers of WP, and death sentence has been given.

And I do understand and share the benefits of shared WP8 core, but WP7.8 IS NOT an intermediate solution. Aren't 1st generation phones ARM just like new ones? Why won't we get WP8?

the worst thing of all, is I can't go back to android or iphone, just can't stand the devices I still work with of those platforms.
[Nokia Lumia 800] bushbox browser:
Why are people assuming that WP8 cannot run on current gen phones, Microsoft has not stated that there is a technical reason for this decision. And don't say that WP8 is only giving us better hardware support because that's nonsense, there are loads of improvements that current hardware could benefit from.

What really makes me suspicious about this is Nokia and MS drive to get lower spec devices on the market, meaning I really doubt that current gen phones cannot run WP8.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sparx180:
Well there is a technical reason, wp8 has been developed to run on the same kernel as windows 8. Wp7 uses a completely different kernel and seeing as the kernel is pretty deep in the phones software, upgrading to wp8 would mean a hell of a lot of work would be needed to make it work on our kernel or even replace wp7 kernel, assuming either of those is possible without making a whole new version of wp8, and work takes time and money and windows 7.8 is the halfway house, they are giving us as much as they can without us having to wait an age or costing them a fortune.
[Nokia Lumia 800] crnkoj:
do you even know what a kernel is?
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Since we don't know the requirements whe cannot say that the kernel wont run on current hardware...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Mio_WP:
I don't know exactly what a kernel is. Bit I believe this: Our phones runs good on the CE kernel. If we where where given the NT kernel we would all whine and complain about slugish and chrashing phones. I have seen that too many times on other platforms.

This works for me, I'll enjoy the good news of lots of new apps coming soon and the improvements coming in 7.8

By the time the phones for WP8 are coming out I will propably be on the lookout for a new one anyways.

[Nokia Lumia 800] 4ny0n3:
I'm actually looking forward to the 7.8 update. I'm not disappointed per se. However, I do understand how others feel. I just got a Lumia 800 with a 18 month contract and my phone is pretty much "legacy" already. That's just one of the so many times mentioned reasons.

My main concern is the lack of native apps for WP7. I'm an avid Twitter user and I like my twitter apps to be as "official" as possible. We all know that the official Twitter app for WP7 is the most incomplete out of all the other official versions. Now, what if Twitter releases a complete and great Twitter App for Windows 8 and they don't release it for Windows Phone 7.8 just because the latter doesn't support native apps and porting is a pain in the ***?

My example with the Twitter app is just one of the many possible situations that will/may arise with the release of Windows Phone 8.

AFAIK Microsoft hasn't said anything concrete that will make us WP7 users rest assured that we won't face the possibility of not enjoying better versions of apps we already have and know just because these versions will be WP8 only.

Man, you should have tipped WMPU about this. They would turn this into a story... But well. I hope MS announces/detailes the 7.8 update soon.

But at least Nokia finally pushes out the tethering....
