Ok, well since it's your first post, I'll help ya out. Google swype since it's in beta and follow the link to their website. It's in Open Beta right now and you can sign up and download it to your phone for free and legit.

Also you might want to post in the general forum since this is a development thread.

Just letting you know before someone flames you and your post gets moved by a mod. Don't get offended, we've all had our first post and got flamed. Good luck and see ya around.

The beauty bit makes it harder but Omega XT v23 with Diniks Anastasia customization and Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0

fits the bill the like is :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=692763

in my humble opinion of course.

There are lots of other very good roms on here that fit the bill, most I have not tried but Indies roms are very good, support Android from sd card and the rom with Diniks customisation are very nicely presented. Diniks work is used in lots of roms, the man produces elegant icons :)

[Android Apps and Games] MacGuy2006:
Why is it that none of the third party applications use dock notifications?

For instance, I really like GO SMS, but when I have it in my dock, I don't get notifications of new messages.

The same is is a lot of other apps, like K-9, and even Google Voice doesn't have them (which is totally inconsistent with the rest of their apps, like Phone and GMail).

Is there a technical issue with showing notifications in the Dock, or is it that developers just don't think about it.

I personally hate the notification bar, which often gets cluttered, has randomly looking icons popping up, and is too small. So I finally decided to hide it, and I am much happier with the look of my screen now :)

It'd be great if we could have the option of In-Dock Notifications.

ADW Notifier is absolutely great, and I LOVE IT!, but it covers only a handful of apps (although in Chuck Norriz Mode it works with GO SMS, but not with Google Voice).
[Android Apps and Games] matt_stang:
I assume you're referring to adw dock notifications. The reason most apps do not have them is because the developers have to specifically add adw notification support. Not everyone uses adw and not every developer knows/cares about adw notifications
[Android Apps and Games] urwrstfear:
I use launcherpro and I have dock notifications. Its not just adw. But LP and adw together make up most of the launchers on the phones out there. So I would say this was a valid question.
[Android Apps and Games] MacGuy2006:
I am not sure this is the reason -- I just downloaded the Phone.com app (the VOIP service I use) and it shows a notification counter bubble on the icon whenever I receive a voicemail on Phone.com.

Just like Google's own Phone app, which shows bubble notifications while in the dock.

I am starting to think that most developers are simply ignoring this, and not implementing on icon notifications.

Which is a real bummer, because virtually everyone I have mentioned this to, notes that this is the one feature which prevents them from using third-party email or text apps.

LauncherPro does notifications only for the stock Google apps, AFAIK, and that's why I stopped using it (and I stopped using Go Launcher for the same reason). ADW Launcher EX with ADW Notifier is the only one which offers the ability to have on-icon notifications for third party apps. Please correct me if I am wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] MacGuy2006:
BTW, after I uninstalled and reinstalled ADW Notifier after my Nexus S upgraded to 2.3.2, now my Google Voice icon in the Dock is popping a notification bubble when I get a voice mail.

It is not a counter bubble, but only a question mark bubble, but it's still a notification :)

I have turned on Chuck Norriz Mode and included Google Voice in the whitelist.

I really wish developers would start including on-icon notifications natively....

okay so i just got back from school, and froyo was released! so i odined back to stock, connected phone to kies, it downloaded some drivers, then... it just keeps saying "CONNECTING DEVICE" so it didn't work...

Is there a way to fix that?

Also, is there like a flashable rom for froyo 2.2 yet? kies isn't working as i said... thanks

and sorry this is another one of those help me with froyo threads, i couldn't find help with PMing some people.

download kies mini, it'll download like 6 drivers for your phone, and when you connect it'll install it, and it should connect and tell you theres a upgrade, mine just did and i got it :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] izzy spun:
As the title says, I installed clockworkmod, but don't really know what to do next. When I installed it, it basically erased my nand and left me with no OS. From what I gather, this is right, and the machine would have been ready at that point to run update.zip files off of the sd card? But I can't get the computer to recognize the device at this point to place files on the sdcard. In addition, I had formatted my sdcard as was suggested, so I was stuck in clockworkmod, with a blank sdcard and no way to access it. Did I do something wrong? I'm sorry to sound like such a n00b, but I am trying to teach myself as much as I can about all of this with what I can glean from these forums, but this whole clockworkmod thing seems to get glossed over. I am also a bit confused as to what nandroid backup is. Thanks for the help.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
You can mount your SD card in CWM, browse the menu a bit and you'll find it. Then copy your build.zip (it doesn't have to be called update.zip persé) to your SD card, unmount again and run the zip updater, all done through CWM. Easy as pie!

Nandroid backup is a full system backup to your SD card. It is advised to take one before flashing a new rom. If something goes wrong or you just don't like it, you can restore the nandroid backup and all your apps, settings, texts, ... literally everything are back to normal. Nandroid backups and restores are all done through CWM too.

What I appreciate most about having a recovery is that you don't need a computer anymore. Just download a rom to your SD card with your phone, boot into CWM, flash it, and voila, you're good to go. Got some sudden troubles? Just temp restore that nandroid backup from a couple of days ago and you'll manage till a computer is within reach. And so on...

Edit: I haven't slept for 40 hours, it's ****ing hard to read every word of a text right now so I'm just picking some and making the best out of it. I hope I correctly understood what you asked, if not I'll try again tomorrow.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
To be honest, I'm not 100% steady when it comes to ClockWork Mod. I installed the excellent NexusHD2 Gingerbread NAND ROM, and that is "ClockWork Mod ready". I've used it for backing up my current build before trying another one, and then restoring everything afterwards, and I've also installed a couple of updates (GPS fix, YouTube delay fix).

I don't know about retro-fitting it to a ROM that you already have flashed on your device. As you say, you lose your current ROM, so I don't see how that's useful. (That's probably my lack of understanding of CWM, and I look forward to more educated responses on this thread!)

My recommendations would be to either spend the next couple of days reading up about CWM and find out exactly where you stand with it, or do what I did and just get a ROM that has it built in.

+ 1 on this

I have tried most of the builds, and all have very high drain with bluetooth enabled.

[Nexus S General] insanemachine:

I'm sure google wouldn't let moto put encrypted bootloader on it.
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
Given their stance on rooting phones you're most likely right. My guess is that HTC (what with their ever harder to unlock bootloaders ala the newest G2s and the Evo Shift 4G) fought it and that Sammy did too. Why they hate rooting and roming so much, I just cannot for the life of me fathom. If they just embraced the dev community (maybe even hired from it) they could increase the performance and desirability of their phones exponentially.
[Nexus S General] insanemachine:
They might be afraid of "loosing control" of their device. Or not getting as much profit from it since software updates would keep it current for longer.
[Nexus S General] jivemaster:
It's purely about profits. It costs money to support a device. Lock the boot loader and you can cancel support when you want and force your user base to a new device. Then you make further profit from device sales, rinse, and repeat. So it's not hard to understand.

Leave the phone open and people don't have to upgrade so soon because communities such as xda keep the device alive.

I don't agree with it but that's the reality. That's why you should stick with the Nexus line.

This. Look at the HD2, or the G1, for example. The HD2 is what, at least two years old? And just look at it, it's got the latest versions of every mobile os out there(other than iOS) on it.

Google was more than disappointed with the results of the nexus s. However the phone was scheduled to launch and it was time to make money.

[Nexus S General] mr mystery:
Just another quick heads up, between Wind and Mobilicity in the city of Toronto Mobilicity wins hands down, call quality and data stability are 10X better. With Wind any attempts at streaming netflix while tethered fail and stop, same with file downloads greater than 25MB, even Youtube HQ on device > 5 minutes stop completely. Wind has better coverage but the network is half a$$ed. At present time if you have a high use data device like the Nexus S Wind is a fail in Toronto. Just sayin' Switching to Mobilicity saved my Nexus.
[Nexus S General] dinan:
I've noticed this lately too, wind sucks balls with data. The coverage is alright but I can't get push notifications on time. How is mobilicity's coverage in the downtown core?
[Nexus S General] NexusDro:
Wind and Mobilicity should just merge or share their towers... I tried Wind and I don't get reception at home and the entire street. I live in Toronto.
