LINK SAY
"Although Microsoft has not publicly said when to expect Windows Mobile 7, partners who had expected to have a final release in their hands by early next year have been told now that it won't be ready until the second half of next year"
i did not know that, but anyway i did not expect wm7 this or the next year
This will be the death of windows mobile if not a wonder happens and they are able to make a fast, logical, functionel and good looking OS. but this would mean to make every application in wm new.
If they can manage that: okay, but really lets all say thank you too iphone and android, that there is going somthing foward after all the years of microsoft stagnancy.
Must wait to 2010/11.
So annoying... I'm really looking forward to WM7.
bummer
we all need the new windows mobile....cuz this one sucks!!
hey I won't complain, as long as they take the time to make sure its done right. I would love to have the zune features on my phone. plus its an all new code base I hear. so this should be intersting, I hope they implement propper animations in the one.
also why did the first poster aatach a picture of windows mobile standard 6.1 sliding panels ?
this is the home screen for non touch screen phones. thats not wm7

because that is the picture from the article.
It's Microsoft's product. You know!
It's been a long time that we consumers or users expect something from them. But they are always delaying the release. Why do they have to release a target date when it's not ready yet? I think they are trying to make us hungry with their product. Right now I am just hoping that Android will be ported to my device. I don't wanna wait for another year(s) for the release of WinMo.
see in first post and know about wm7 a review edited now
It's true. 1.6 gets skipped. Check the link:
http://htcsource.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=791&Itemid=50
sounds great
thanks for the info
Oh, thank god! Just imagine how long we should have waited for 2.0 otherwise!
The whole 1.6 release seemed a bit odd to me. Especially now 2.0 is so fast released after 1.6. In this case I have to agree with HTC.
But I do hope that in the future they keep up with the normal updates. Otherwise it will be a bit of a guessing game "will HTC give us this update yes or no?!".
at least 4 months to get 2.0 damn. i wud love to get 1.6 now. its tough to live with a phone without new things to play with.
Happy x-mas
Sweet looks like HTC will be playing santa this year and giving us 2.0 as a present
this looks amazing. genius. pure genius. i cant wait for this
I cannot wait for this!
I saw in
http://www.unwiredview.com/2009/10/28/verizon-motorola-droid-announced-comes-on-nov-6-for-199-99/
Motorola Droid (First Android 2.0 Device) wil start shiping in 6 November. so posible we have android 2.0 for next month.

Indeed, you should buy the new droidphone, it has android 2.0 as first of all...
1.6 wouldn't make that big of a difference, also there will be some cooked 1.6 roms I think.
It's the most logical choice for htc to make, it has no use spending a lot of manhours making a 1.6 rom when it's only used for a few months.
Patience is a virtue, and my hero on 1.5 still works like a dream. Stop nagging and be happy for the fact it's comming!
the hero will get 2.0 at the release of the moto droid and the g1 wont get an update to 2.0 because the ram is not enough for 2.0 i think
and tmobile in germany so hadnt released the 1.6 for the g2 touch because they will direct update the g2 touch to 2.0
2.0 with sense that would be very nice
bye

Did it grow a physical keyboard and lose some ram?
In case you folks didn't hear about the android uproar today, 2.0 comes with google navigation - free! Full turn-by-turn voice directions!

Just got this message from HTC via Twitter :
The rumors are true! Hero will be getting an Eclair update. We ask for your patience as we update Sense for the fancy new Android OS
Things are looking good, just have to wait a bit.
it‘s a great news

I take it that is a guess ?
I wonder how long HTChave had the 2.0 code. Being such a major Android hardware partner they should have had it for at least as long as Motorola have.
I imagine that the 'please bear with us' is HTC trying to point out that 2.0 will not be released next week at same time as Droid. We'll have to wait a few weeks more.
As someone who's Hero has been away for repair for a week I'll settle for 1.5 in my hand now. How did we ever live without our smartphones ?

bro just see how long htc took to release source code for hero. and this source code just came out last week. so does it really takes so much to guess that 2.0 wont come in 1-2 months?
i wont be less happy than u in any way if comes earlier than i am expecting. but why expect so much and get disappointed?

indeed !!!
It's not so sure... It's a RUMOUR that it won't fit (just like he rumoured that 1.6 won't fit on G1 but it does fit after all!)...
So wait for google/t-mobile to something about it... And the user/dev-group of the G1 is so much bigger then the hero (10/20x bigger?) and 2.0 will come to G1, maybe offical maybe by devs! SO it's not a question IF it happens but WHEN it happens!
Sense is not so good at all, just some extra widget's but that's all, like plain (and faster) launcher better then sense
Do you think Gingerbread will be a 2.x update or 3.0 update? There are rumors surrounding both. What do you think and why?
I know 3.0 is being made to support tablets, and gingerbread is only going to be available for high-end devices.
Many rumors speculate that the next release will be anywhere from 2 weeks from now until Christmas. It's pretty much guaranteed to be released in 2010 though.
To be honest, in my own uneducated opinion...
..I think we will see a glimpse in 2010 before christmas, perhaps even a working version on prototype hardware. But a released version wont happen until 2011.
Im hoping they take there time with it.
And please for the love of friking god will they finally make openGL use mandatory regardless, there are too many good phones with dedicated hardware being wasted ><

official new features with 2.1 from sonyericssonsupport
It should be out soon then.
ya, very exciting
hm, i really hope this end-of-october-thing is going to com true this time...there were a lot of things published in past...
but looks cool and i'd be really happy to have all these new features on my phone in the end!!!
Finally, a feature I wanted the most. Looks like it is a 2.1 feature to turn of screen when you press power button while on call. Currently, it ends the call and I hated it as I was coming from Nexus One.

I am counting on the update for HD recording as I am leaving on a cruise on 30th. But, if they didn't announce the date till now, it's very unlikely it will happen. We might hear them say on 29th Friday that the update is scheduled for middle of Nov.
If you haven't updated yet, please watch the software update video..
where is this? ^^
i really need 2.1 before 31
discuss it in the 2.1 thread
I have been looking forward to this for so long. anyone else exited to have touch on the N6?
it is currently at 0%
https://devices.ubports.com/#/
I am excited to see it. They def got all the donations they need for nexus 6 at 310.00 since you can get a nexus 6 for 200 but have to wait for a dev to handle it. Hope its soon but I have a One plus and it looks like that ones almost done Thanks for the link tho
http://www.androidjoint.com/2016/02/27/nexus-devices-bought-by-ubuntu-are-now-slotted
According to this source they already own a Nexus 6.
It's been like that for awhile (month+). I'm the person who made the reddit post linked in the article and also was in contact with the donator who made the large donation needed to get the Nexus 6 into 'waiting' status.
Hopefully the UBPorts team is working on it. I had the Oneplus One back when mariogrip first got the Oneplus devices started off for Ubuntu ports. Kind of sad to switch to the Nexus 6 only to find it may not have a port because it didn't launch with Kitkat :l
Please for the love of god let this happen.
Definitely excited about this. Fingers crossed
:good:

That would be cool to try ubuntu touch
NEXUS IS AT 10%
looks like we might get to run this after all
dreams do come true lol

Isn't Ubuntu Touch based on Android KitKat? That would be weird to see running on the shamu. I wonder how that's gonna work out, definitely interested though!

Thanks for posting that link.
If my memory serves me right, your responded to a similar thread about a year ago with "nothing to see here".
IMHO, that's still a valid comment....

Can't wait til they get everything working

I, um, was actually working on this at one point a few months back. I kind of got frustrated with the then state of Halium/UBPorts and took a rage-break but I might give it another shot now that things are a little more stabilized. I did get shamu running SFOS (mostly, I kept running into audio and modem issues), Plasma Mobile, and a couple generic rootfs' for Halium.
Is It worth porting though? As far as I am aware, the project was completely abandoned.

To the contrary, Ubuntu Touch/ubports are very much alive and well.
https://ubports.com/
They're currently working on getting the system updated to an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS base (as this was already half-done by canonical and will lessen a lot of future work for 18.04/beyond) as well as a new base for porting, derived from the Sailfish HADK and libhybris, called Halium to lessen the workload of porting non-Android OSes.
As far as the Shamu port - I guess Marius just lost interest. I already have some hybris ready device trees for shamu from when I was working on it late last year.
I plan to put some work in on it this week and see if I can't get ubports booting.
Not like I use my Nexus 6 for anything else right now. ^^;
probably never going to happen. i was so excited to try this. there was a dev preview on the galaxy s3 i booted up with no functionality. it looked so cool.

It'll happen if I can get the time to work with the porters to get it going.
Like I said, I already got shamu to boot SailfishOS and Plasma Mobile - both hybris based. UBports is just a matter of getting Unity8 to play nice.
