Exclamation Droid ERIS source code released
Good news has arrived today,touching programmers as well as hackers or exquisite french ROM-chef's. HTC released the source code of the HTC DROID Eris. Now cooking ROM's for the device is made much easier. So HTC follows the "open source" codex and opens up the device for anyone.

sorry mods...
please delete this post
Hi all,
I wanted to know where I can find source code of HTC android apps. I can also code for android devices but not like a professional look and feel. I want to study the source code of HTC apps to learn and improve my coding.
Helpful information will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
You could ask HTC nicely, but I still doubt they'd give it to you. HTC releases source code for GPL stuff (like the kernel) but their sense UI stuff is closed-source proprietary.
Hi, Im the dev of Balanced, an app/widget for checking your mobile balance through *100# or *123# USSD commands. It has been in beta for a while here:

We really need a few hard-core testers with this phone.
We are near releasing a final version and would welcome some testing on the Desire, as there still seem to be some bugs to iron out!
Also, we are looking for translations, so if you are interested you can let me know and i will send you the internal pro version for free or put a few bucks in a paypal email for beers.
Guys some of you have written about problems - are there any others with issues?
Moto mde a stament http://sourceforge.net/motorola/atrix/discussion/general_comments/thread/9f80b745/
gb source by 7/29
So with the official 4.5.91 finally being populated to everyone through regular channels (not our awesome quicker than the maker methods ). We gain the right to demand from motorola to release the source, as according to GPL, if someone ask for the source they must release it.
Thanks joe for finding all the info on the specific lincese

Q: Why should I care if moto releases the source or not?
A: Do you want AOSP rom, and CM7, maybe MIUI. all of this are dependent on the source. otherwise is super mega complicated to create them. And available source guarantees more devs.
So what is the plan?
Simple, the plan is to demand the source, a lot, A LOT! So they dont pull the same stunt they did with 4.1.83 update. The source for that became available last week!
So we are going to do this 2 ways! The official way, and the troll way.
The official method to request source is by writing a letter to motorola mobile to the following address.
Motorola Mobility, INC.
OSS Management
600 North US hwy 45
Libertyville, IL
60048, USA
The letter of course:
I ___________ write to request the release of the source code for the following software:
The 4.5.91 firmware update for motorola Atric 4g, the webtop included in the update, and any particular software included in this update that follows GPL licensing.
The second method, the troll way. Is simply to flood the motorola forums and requested there!
Tell everyone about this effort, we need source code right away!

Link to the dev tread anyone?
Sam,
Are you taking initiative to write a letter to Motorola? If you do, I'm sure the XDA community would be obliged to take care of the flooding.

well considering i took the initiative to spread the word of finding the unlock, and then my handle got submited to a few international gadget sites as responsible for finding the unlock from the test servers. maybe writing to moto myself could be a bad idea. i def dont want to face any legal problems. but i will encourage anyone who wants to write them to do so, ill even write the letter and paste it for you guys, a stamp is only 45 cents!
Please some direction to help, @ or#

Lemme first be a little polite.
Dear Motorola,
You have already done your best to turn the Atrix into a dead bird. The GS2 and G2X have better fan following because you locked the bootloader, now we request you to release the source of the GB update ASAP so we can get to work with the code and bring some CM magic to the Atrix
