Why do you feel the need to post this here? Don't mean to come off as an a-hole, but no one cares if you've changed to the iphone, so you gave up a locked down phone for an even more locked down phone that isn't nearly as customizable or fun to use, over some rumors. Im kinda glad you've changed phones now that I think of it.

So I assume this has something to do with P3Droids comments on Verizon "tracking" rooted phones right? (dude deleted the original post)
If your going to read into things like these, you have to keep up with them. If this guy would have, he would have known that Verizon currently can't actually see that your phone is rooted.
They HAVE implemented a way to see if your tethering in the new GB release. I think this is 100% acceptable for them to do. Period.
As for getting an iPhone. I'm not going to sit here and bash the phone. I may not like it as much as I do an Android phone, but everyone must admit the iPhone has some pros, like battery life. Everyone I know who has one has amazing battery life. This goes for Apple computers as well. Apple has it right with batteries.
Anywho, just thought I'd put my two cents in.

I guess the OP wants a phone that can't multitask and doesn't even have wallpaper. Good for him.

Err...You can change the wallpaper on an iPhone. Especially with iOs 4.0, which is what any iPhone out there is probably on nowadays.

I don't think so; I think you may be overstating things a bit. What do you really use flash for on your phone anyway?
I certainly didn't switch TO android because it could do flash.
And I sold phones for a long time and no customer ever told me they chose android because of flash compatibility.
Also, I don't see how your flash comment has anything to do with the Skyvi app.

Some did, but they switched for the wrong reason. I'm sure google has a planned HTML5 or something along the lines better than flash for the impending future. To remove something 'crucial' and NOT have a plan to replace it, is asinine. I'm not worried at all.

I like Vlingo better

Other than asking my phone dumb stuff like "what is the meaning of life?" I do have any real need for Siri-like apps. Maybe if I used my phone while driving or something. What these apps need is an uncanny ability to answer any meaningless question I could come up with. That will sell me.

Skyvi works fine on my HTC Desire HD running CM7. In fact it runs so well that I can't remove it from the notifications bar!

When will XDA make their own phone...

Ok facebook is at it again with another phone.
So that got me thinking....

not sure what new os their would be... thats why i asked about it. I think android and i os are the flavor of the time for now... but would xda use.... i think something based off asop but also like cm9 and also like miui. what specs would an xda phone have? 12 core cpu? 1tb of rom and ram? 12tb of storage? 5" screen?

PS games? seriously? this thread is getting a lot more fun, haahahaha

Hi there, in short is it worthy to buy a WP8 like Luma 920? It looks great ,actually its better than the SGS3 at&t version in hardware aspect , yet I'm fried that it'll be costly and unable to ,, unlook ~so you can download paid app 4 free ,for a while, I believe that Nokia took out the SD card so u can't unlook, also I'm fried that Nokia will dump it year later as the Luma 900 ?so r u optimistic about it? Currently I have no money, so I'll wait for the next iPhone ,Note2, HTC new power full device, log optimus G, and of course the Luma

WP8 will remain supported for a while (2 years or so)
No, you can't unlock it, and you shouldn't unlock it unless you are a developer. Paying for your apps is something you should do, because these apps do not write themselves.

Actually, no, I'm not afraid that WP8 might make it harder to steal apps, because I don't intend to steal anything in the first place. If money is a problem for you, get a mid-range Android and enjoy the fact that many of the apps are free.

The thing is Android become very boring ,so the iOS , I would like to try a new OS without my freedom gone, probably I'll stack to Android

OMG the OP actually has made be angry!!! This idea that its ok to steal because lets blame the banks or the government etc is the biggest cr4p in the world. Your scum and are destroying the industry just look at the PC games market. I love the idea of hacking a phone to unlock it to side load apps that are otherwise not available but to do it to rip of hard working underpaid devs is nothing but cheap nasty and chav! If you cant afford it get a better job or get something cheaper, I mean if you can afford a nice new wp8 handset you can affor 79p for an app.

apparently I am not allowed to post links, but google "zdnet ubuntu phone 5 things" will fill you in on what we know so far. Follow the first link.
what I know personally, Ubuntu tries to keep new deployments as quiet as possible but relies on an open source dynamic for development. If you have a high end Android phone, there is a good chance you will be needed (unofficially) for the initial builds. Anyone with a dual core android phone packing 1gb ram will be (unofficially) included in the "beta" testing phase.
Essentially, if you can compile it yourself, you are guaranteed a front row seat. If you cant, but pay attention, you will still be on board.

Canonical has detailed the system requirements for smartphones running Ubuntu. The “entry level” Ubuntu device is expected to run a 1GHz Cortex A9 processor, 512MB – 1GB of RAM, 4-8GB eMMC + SD, and a multi-touch display. The high-end Ubuntu “superphone” calls for a Quad-core A9 or Intel Atom processor, 1GB of RAM minimum, multitouch, and desktop convergence. The desktop convergence part certainly sounds interesting, as Canonical called it a “a full PC desktop accessible just by docking the device to a monitor and keyboard.”

I've got an n7000, and am keen to work on a port when the source code hits. Never done it before though, and am keen for some advice.
After the source code hits, what's the best place to go to learn about porting the code to our n7000?
I appreciate any advice you have, particularly with any links. I'm familiar with the linux commandline, file system structure, flashing my phone, ubuntu servers and desktop Ubuntu in general. Haven't played around with compiling kernels much before, but happy to start. Am running Ubuntu 12.04 on an XPS 13 ultrabook for my dev machine.

Now people will find out why Samsung is such a ***** to work with. Android was a different ballgame cause there where plenty of devs working on Exynos based SoC devices and things could be patched up relatively quick. No documentation for Exynos is gonna rear it's ugly head this time. TI OMAP was the most dev friendly SoC out there and Qualcomm is workable too. Tegra and Exynos are garbage

Its honest though. To get it working properly may well be impossible. Its part of the reason cyanogen still doesn't support mhl on Samsung's. Also its a little early to ask for advice on porting when no one has experience with this code yet. Sorry to pee on your cornflakes, give it a week and we'll all know more.
