Looks nice, but some of those specs are thought to be wrong. Apparently no snapdragon, and earlier reports on the rom/ram are wrong...apparently

This is Android OS and no WM.

I really don't like the UI.

I understand, but remember - if it's Android based, creating custom UI's will be much easier. And with the new hardware this device is rumored to hold - possibilities are many and vast.

I believe we have a huge thread about it already.

Well.. Ok, I'm a very active user, but obviously that is not enough for obtaining Moderator status..
Quote from FAQ:
"Moderators oversee specific forums. They generally have the ability to edit and delete posts, move threads, and perform other actions. Becoming a moderator for a specific forum is usually rewarded to users who are particularly helpful and knowledgeable in the subject of the forum they are moderating."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm not sure I am as knowledgeable as one would have to be. But I mean, for enforcing rules in the forum, and for deleting useless threads like this.. I think I could handle it And yes, there are far to few active Moderators.
I'm very sad to hear you feel this way though gtrab, as you are one of our real support-pillars here at XDA:X1. It's a shame that we keep driving people like you away with the lack of organization of the forum.
The problem as I see it is when you get "knowledgable" enough to become a Moderator, you most likely will be spending your time cooking and developing, and most probably have no time for rather simple tasks such as - deleting usless threads like these Sad downwards spiral..

It's already been discussed but I wouldn't buy this thing unless it has a slider form factor for a keyboard.

[Q] Gingerbread + sense

Edit:
Hi, I have a question. Since a couple of weeks I use MDJ GINGERBREAD ROM. I prefer a "Sense" ROM but I couldn't find one smooth as a native one (more or less).
The point is, is it expected a smoother sense ROM under Gingerbred, or it will not be a significant improvement?
In addition I suppose the base for a sense gingebread rom would be thunderbol
What I've heard, is that Sense on gingerbread roms isn't possible yet as HTC didn't release any gingerbread compatible sense yet.. so I guess it won't be possible untill a phone comes out with native gingerbread + sense..

There's not even an offical Sense that runs on Android 2.3.1
Thunderbolt runs on Android 2.2
Do a little bit of reasearch before starting a thread about non-sense
Additionally, considering what features you want from sense, you maybe able to get them on your homescreen or wherever with widgets.
The Mods have just tidied up the forums, and still people insist on starting question threads in the development section.
That's why we have a Q&A section.

You can give Fancy Widget Pro a try, it has some beautiful flip clock skins. The free version is limited, so to enjoy the full package you need to buy it.
Sincerely,
Mac
If you want to get sense earlier on new builds, you need the source code of sense so xda can port it, but too bad it is not possible, even if u got it, it is illegal as sense is actually owned by htc so you should not reverse engineer it...

just download beautiful widgets from a black market or the actual market and you have a number of customized flip clock with a weather app just like HTC Sense with various skins for the weather as well

Because... well, why the hell not?
But let's change the core idea a little. Instead of picking which rom you think is the best, just vote for which ever rom you are using right now. After all, if you don't like the rom you probably won't be using it.
And as for all those haters out there, I actually think this kind of poll is good for the developers. Companies hold polls all the times to compare competing products. It's a good way to see how well you are doing against your friends and rivals. Furthermore, a low popularity doesn't mean your ROM is bad. It might just be that you are relatively new to the scene, or perhaps your users simply don't venture to the dark corner of the universe called "General".
So vote on people! The results should be quite interesting.
P.S. Only roms listed in the [ROM LIST] thread are on this poll. So I apologise if your rom is missing from the poll. Go blame it on splish2010 instead
now this is what is called a competition
The highest score is going to be the one that must numptys use and the one that breaks most phones .Never answers users help posts left to fend for themselves or waste others time answering .
Not the best rom though how can anyone judge best beats me .

With ROM kitchen leading i guess most votes are coming from Froyo users.
For Gingerbread there's plenty of better options than (beta) kitchen right now...
This topic should be 2 separate votes: 2.2 and 2.3

Perhaps. But once ROM kitchen Gingerbread goes out of beta, most of the froyo users will probably upgrade to Gingerbread. So the results are still relevant.

Why is this here? What has this to do with Archos Gen8?!
post witdrawn
1) please write in english or at least add some translation in english to it. forum language is english. of course you can write private messages in the language you like the most.
2) no censorship intended nor requested, it's just a simple question because I didn't get the link between your complains and the Archos Gen8 devices.
3) when you say "market" you're talking about _the_ Android Market? If yes, Android Market is not and will never be part of the official Archos Gen8 firmware.
4) if you want to complain about the software quality of some third party programs from AppsLib / Android Market / [enter source you got the apps from] write to the developers of the specific app directly. I'm sure, this will then get much more attention than a posting in the general section of some specific device which will never be read by those developers because they don't develop for this device specifically but for Android in general.
5) battery saver apps mostly do one thing: killing apps so they're not running in the background and thus don't need cpu power / battery. often also called "task killers". newer battery saver apps are also "smart" and disable WiFi / bluetooth / etc. if not needed to save much more battery.

Trolls and the ungrateful

One thing I have enjoyed here in this forum is it is much friendlier and less flaming than the evolution 3d forum I came from, and still is so far.
I have read a few things that disappointed me greatly I would like to mention .
Guys, think before you bash a persons work. Whether it's a theme, ROM, or some mod these people put in hard work and time for free and our benefit! It may not be perfect or what you personally like but that's not the point. If I was doing things for friends I've never met or a forum I would stop after some of the crap I've read.
Guys, please keep this place supportive and friendly. We were all noobs once and didn't know much except how to turn on the phone.
Anyway, respect each other and the work posted here. Bashing doesn't promote anything and doesn't encourage anyone to keep going .
And it's FREE!
Ok, group hug . J/k

It has become worse over the years. Sadly.
Still it's a small group who messes it up for the rest.
I have however, also seen someone who thinks he's a "developer", say snobby stuff to noobs. Like he was better then them.
This is much worse imho.

I agree. It goes both ways and there will always be the ones who's sole purpose is to troll and flame. I just can't imagine knocking someones hard work when they are giving it away. And I will never understand flaming a noob for asking a question. We were all there once. Hopefully this forum will stay above the fray .

I completely second what OP said,most of my PDAs would have been unusable bricks without the support of this great Forum and its intelligent and zealous Devs, starting long back with my Imate PDA2K in 2006, turning my HD2 from unstable device with its officially unsupported OS into one great masterpiece .
I salute all the devs in this forum knowing well that our GNote coupled with their fantastic effort and talent will become an even better device once the official ICS starts rolling out.

What's that got to do with anything? If anything, that makes matters that much worse - if he's so tech-savvy, he should know about using the search function before opening ANY new threads.
well, after use "Search" I've found many threads w/o answer. So I just would like to know why, just ont one, simple answer.
I kind of agree with him, there is the need of a sticky thread that clearly states what and why cannot work, and what instead is needed, and why.

You should know better than that. Opening a new thread when one already exists on the same subject is a big no-no on XDA. Opening a new thread KNOWING one already exists just makes it worse.
Anyway, I'm sure there's a good reason a Galaxy R release doesn't help. The devs have no obligation to explain in great technical detail why this is not possible, if they say this won't work you should be able to trust their expertise and experience on that. If you need solid proof and reason, maybe you could try extracting the drivers and making them work on the Atrix yourself.
