If that is true, then it looks incredibly cheap and tacky!

Winmo7 with HTC sense over the top to make it look half decent again lol

looks like microsoft are trying to make the today screen look like a bog standard phone so as not to scare away people who have never used windows mobile previously.
if that home screen isnt customisable then ill eat my hat.

Not sure anyone has view this interview before :

Ok this is very weird!
Over at one of the biggest gadget site's engagdet.com people are very positive about this! I come to XDA, then I see this. Why are you so negative??
IMO, this at least shows they are going a NEW way with WM7. I am really really excited about this.. just 2,5 hours left!

Yeah tell me about man, sometimes I find people here at XDA nag alot... You havent even see it in action yet. Wait until we see whats under that main ui...

not realy surprising as engadget are a bit more geared towards out the box use as opposed to xdev's hands on approach...

I think it look great.

Yeah but I think its better first to know whats past the home screen, what functions and services it offers etc. etc. All we got here really is a big picture on a wall... and people already giving it the finger...
Engadget havent lifted it from the box yet nor have any xdevs been on the aproach...

Nice. The lack of a gazilion tiny task-specific buttons indicates that WM 7 is gonna have a real touch-based interface. I like that.

very nice interface

I want that for my HD2
IMHO - that looks really nice - now I just hope that it will be made available for the HD2...

Ugly as hell. Gonna wait for the official presentation before drawing any conclusions though.

yup..same here....
far too many rumours and photoshopped stuff going around these days. easy to get excited and think that a lot of stuff is coming, only to find out it was a fake or was removed from the final released version.

As long as it's configurable (i.e.: I can get rid of it!), the interface doesn't bother me.

I'm just bored of rumour this, rumour that. I'd rather see it working than a print on a wall.

Loved the UI! Exactly what I was expecting! Its the User Experience that matters rather than the User Interface! And MS has done that this time!
Around half and hr to go now! Lets wait and watch!

Hold your horses... Maybe it's the WM6.6... ?

Damn people ...
Take it easy guys till Microsoft shows this thing, .... I think the preview looks good. lets hope there is more to it than that tho!

Anyone interested in TAThome?

Here you can join the early access for almost any android phone and give feed back.
This is TAThome for android: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOGmnnGpoqg
And here is the website: http://www.tat.se/
Thank you for your time
P.S i DO NOT work at TAT or have any relations with TAT all right go to TAT engineers and designers.

It looks amazing but I remember a similar demonstration for a 3D TAT interface on the N95 way back when, and nothing ever came of it. Is this getting a definite release?

Seems really interesting...
I would like to try it

I'm not 100% sure about this but i think it will be released because there is a sign up for getting early access, So the only thing to do right now is sign up and hope for the best
P.S i will give feed back and share videos here if i ever get the early access

Yeah, well I've signed up. Let's hope something comes of this

Signed up, too.
I think this is not part of the "Nexus One Development"

Lol, I hadn't even noticed that we were in that section. I assumed it was themes and apps! Probably should be

No, other than the weather widget (which actually does a good job looking natural and making good use of space) I think that it's pretty much a bust. Unnecessary gestures and poor layout/viewing angles, this feely like a "me too" attempt at (ab)use of opengl.

Moved to general......

No thanks.
Looks cool but its just too much eye candy to me.

How do I sign up for early access? I don't see a link on their site.
Thanks

press 'take the tour', you'll see the email notify thingy on the next page
you didn't look around there too awful hard, didja ?

if only there was a way for people to use their software's because I'm sure if they release it to the public there will be a lot of people willing to make GUI's even better then that.

full Froyo or press release.

I've been noticing a lot of the apps on the market stating that we all have press release versions of Froyo. Is this true?

Can you give some examples?
Haven't seen this.

yeah, PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!

We've done some additional investigation, and as far as we can tell, Google is only updating review Nexus Ones that had been provided to the press -- not off-the-shelf phones. We'll stay on this and let you know more as soon as we do.

If that turns out to be the case, we will get the new file so we can flash it; if not we can alway download the old 2.1 update file, flash and then let the OTA hit the phone.

Really? I thought everyone interested enough in tinkering with gadgets (aka nerds, JK ) knew Freeman, the famous silent protagonist armed with the mighty crowbar. Or maybe I'm just getting old and ppl don't play PC games anymore.
Anyway, hopefully a new rom will come. I still have problems mounting the SD card which sometimes causes crashes. And also missing market links.

Guys, let's continue the discussion in the older thread, too many duplicate threads being created... lets keep all in one place. Thanks though.

Goodbye, Farewell, Arrivederci, Adiós, See ya!

Right, bad new for me... My MD has decided today that everyone has to have a BB 9900, so my S2 which was going to be with me tomorrow is no more... To say I'm upset and pissed off would be an understatement, but alas, nothing I can do about it...
So if I hang around here beyond now it would be seen as a bit weird and creepy, so it's goodbye all... I won't miss the repetitive posts and questions, but I will miss the great humour and pen craft...
Developers keep developing, users start reading...
Caspa.
P.S. - I've got a 'Soul Black' Neo Hybrid on it's way in the post to me, so if anyone fancies it please PM me... Otherwise it will simply get sent back...

Shoot your boss? Or hang around anyway - there'a a lot weirder and creepier here who don't have SGS2s - they have... THE YELLOW TINT FROM HELL!
Take care mate, will miss your humour - but maybe you'll rediscover the will to live?
Mayweather to stop Ortiz in the 5th - bankers.

Why not just purchase a GS2 yourself?
Good luck anyway whatever ya do.....

+1 fully agree with jonny68. No excuses...go get yourself a new one. Pilage, steal etc etc.

Keep breaking your BB (and your colleagues) and moaning about how this never would have happened with the SGS2.

I sincerely hope you will get a new GS2 to play with.These BB are horrible.A friend has one and lemme tell ya,I never wanted to break a piece of technology that much.Not to mention they are fugly.You have my sympathies.Your boss too for their lack of taste or knowledge of technology.
But hey,as said before,hang around.There are many dudes that do so without having a GS2.Can you live a day without reading posts in Hacre's thread?I can't!

PM brother...

New BB arrived today, still hasnt been configured but I had a quick play...
Design is the usual, but back to the original width so larger than the recent ones... It is the thinnest one ever though... Feels well built and looks pretty smart... Keyboard does feel like the best BB one yet, but the keys above them are shiny so show fingerprints... Back is weird if you ask me... The battery cover is basically clear plastic/glass over a textured surface, again finger prints, but different I suppose...
Now then, OS7... What can I say? Same'ol'same old...As crap as ever but with a brand new lick of paint... Touchscreen works, but I just thought, what's the point really...
Read a post over at crackberry and some guy got rid of his S2 for one of these things... We might have some intellectually challenged members, but what does that make him?!
Anyway, I'd like to introduce you all to a great new charity... It's called the 'Get Caspa an S2 as his work decided to get him a BB 9900 at the last minute Fund', a great cause as he shouldn't have to suffer in this way... I'm sure you'll agree...
Rest assured, 100% of donations will go to the fund and remember, YOU can make a real difference in Caspa's life...

WTF?!?! ... Who decided to rate my thread so low?! Some brain dead ****er no doubt... This shouldnt even be considered rateable! What are you rating, my misfortune / comments on the BB / general humour?!
Swines!

Don't you have a mobile of your own mate or do you just rely on your job to provide you with a phone?You can get the GS2 for free on contract in UK if you cant afford to purchase it outright although i always recommend purchasing outright and avoid long contracts.
Even if i had a job that provided a phone id still ensure i had my own phone and it wouldn't be a bloody iPhone or Blackberry either.
Just an observation

Just got this phone :)

Just saying hello I just got this phone, I came from the tmobile gs2. the tmobile gs2 was nice but this phone is sooo much better, cause of the exynos and much more development!!! glad to join the team!!

In that case, I'd like to warmly say ...
I hope this thread isn't a sign of things to come from your time here.

Well, I would like to say welcome, and glad you are happy with your new toy.

Congratulations on moving to the real sgs2 yo

Just be careful and don't damage it lol

This is a pointless thread that I would make as soon as I got a toy like this! Love my phone still and its been over 9 months. Phones never last me longer than 6 months. Congrats on the new phone

Welcome aboard fella. Enjoy your stay..Here you can get women, smoke cubans and above all have a sexy gorgeous phone named the Galaxy S2....Welcome to paradise

oh dont worry first thing I did when I got home was root it and try out codeworkx's cm9. Besides the little bugs I love it, cant wait till the official release!!! That was a big part of me getting the phone, it'll have ICS on it way before the tmobile gs2!!

Btw if you want to root.... its so easy on this phone
Enjoy

I have had this for 2 month on t-mobile and am very happy.

Well, the rest 100.000 of us here on the forums also got this phone. Now imagine if we would all create a new thread to express our joy. Wouldn't that be a cesspool? Just saying...
Yeah, good job, it's a nice phone. Take care of it.

Thats what i did after unboxing

Congratulations
First of all, congratulations on getting your new phone. I can only say that this phone is still one of the best out there, especially for the developments made for this phone (credits to the developers). For me, it was my 1st android phone. So, I had a pretty long time searching for what I can do to this phone to bring out it's inner capabilites. One of them, is to root your phone and install ROMs inside. Since I love to customize my phone, I feel that rooting is essential for me and went ahead to root my phone. If you are considering about rooting your phone, do take note that the warranty will most probably be void

Would anything change?
Instead of creating threads that we bought this device we just spam the CyanogenMod 9 thread and annoy the developers.
It wouldn't cause more useless posts, just different ones.
