possibly for MMS images?
can you SS any changes in the About Phone section?

Nice!
....and that would be the reason that I went with a Nexus device.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the improvements are.

Hm...I just checked and I don't see one available. What part of the country are you in?

OTA updates can take a while to reach every single customer, give it a week.

Had your Nexus S 3D maps when you purchased it? If not they must be there now. Can you plz check and let me know?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Damn, now all we anal-must-be-first types like myself are going to be hitting the System Updates menu all day long looking for it.
Thanks a lot!

That's what she said... ;-)
Place two fingers on the screen, drag up or down to change the view. Test it with a city like NYC. The version of Maps with 3D is ver. 5.0.

awesome, cant wait for mines!

mssmison's Android builds

Vilords Thread
Build credits to just another crowd, TheDude and many others from the dream forum.
Thanks mssmison for your hard work.
Welcome new Rom.
WOW, thank you so much mssmison, we really appreciate it .
Can't wait for the new build from Rogers.
Oh, by 100% working, do you mean bluetooth?!!?
Thank you!

Nice work!
Just a question, not that it matters much. The default clock on the home screen is a certain size (small), but if you add a new one via widgets menu, it's a huge clock. Is it suppose to be like that, or is this just a minot detail to be worked out later?
It seems I am an idiot. I can't figure out what Extended Drawer is actually doing.. :\

I'm always up for testing new versions, though it might be less stressful to hold off and release a fixed version (as much as I hate waiting).
If you do decide to release a version that doesn't have everything working, you might want to note that in the file name.
Example: mssmison_rogers_system_(MARKET_NOT_WORKING).img
That way there is no excuse for ridiculous whining and complaining.
I'm quite happy you came back mssmison. I'm also glad that you noted you were taking off some tonight so I didn't sit up all night anxiously awaiting the new great release.
Would it be a simple deal of switching the system files to download an app from market and then switch back, or is it more than just the system file and would you have to delete widgets to go back and forth? If I just had to change out system files to get a market app no problem, or find the .apk to download and install it.
Does that mean flash and the differen't profiles to choose for your screens and perspectives? Maybe a list of what it does have working would be easier, or just figure it out ourselves when it's released. I'm quite excited
Thanks for all your work
First I'd like to thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I haved used many build's before yours and all are good to their own part. I am having trouble with Android the last couple of days, I cannot receive calls but am able to call out. Any Idea what may be the problem. I was using vilords build and had this same problem, tried yours to see if it could be fixed. Thank you again and good luck with your future builds, I will be looking forward to testing them.
hey just wanted to give a heads up not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but the calendar will not load for me everytime i try to load it the app crashes.

Unfortunatly no, the rogers builds only work with data.img that are created by them. The builds are quite different.

Wanna say thanks to mssmison for his build working great. And i would love a link to Regers to test it out. Plz and thanks
Sounds like big things are happening! Nice job mssmison! I can't wait to try out the Rogers build!
i'd like to test the hero if you need. i've wanted to see the sense ui for a long time. i keep checking to see if you posted it yet. i'm excited. can you install programs from the .apk's?
Umm, im using your new build and just for fun, i tried marketplace...it seems to work for me, I downloaded shopsavvy and successfully installed it.
I however, used my old data file.
Maybe I'm lucky

He's saying that Market doesn't work on the Rogers build (which he hasn't released yet).

my only guess would be that they have been removed from your view because we are using an unofficial version of android 2.2, and the market doesn't know what to do with us in screening apps. My guess is that they will return to the downloads area when froyo is officially released.

As already stated, they won't appear until the official release of Froyo.
Same here, apps vanished from my downloads area. Thing is, if you re-download them then they appear ok.

Its been awhile buddy. I've actually been helping lynkz get xyc's kitchen moved over to OSBuilder. I won't being buying this phone unless someone wants to buy me one off-contract since I'm on Sprint for life!! I might build something for it tho. Hopefully we can fully deodex this beast soon.

Yeah it has been a little while hasnt it. I didnt know if you was gong to try building a rom for this one to. Once I get mine and you do decide to try building for it, you know im always down for some testing.

Hah...I still haven't gotten tp2 replaced. I'll probably replace it, upgrade that line to the Evo Shift 4G and sell the tp2. Glad the ROM is still worthy of use.

[EDIT: too good to be true] Android 8 update seems to be out officially

As long as it's not a very well made scam it seems Motorola just made official that the Android 8 update is ready: https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/Solution/MS126318. I can't verify it since it always takes a bit till everyone gets the OTA, but the website seems to be the official one.
Has anyone received it yet and can shed some light on it like have they finally made it 64 bit (I know, good joke) or if they finally have a working F2FS implementation so Magisk can be installed without some workaround?
And how is battery life looking? I mean it's already great but was Google able to make it even better?
EDIT: was too good to be true. They just removed that website. They really know how to hold the tension
that's good news. i only hope they didn't mess up the battery...i'm waiting a bit to do the update to make sure they didn't ruin it

If Motorola shares the information about the update, it's definately coming soon (maybe this week).
I don't care if someone has "different information" that can't be discussed.
Can't wait for it, i might go back to stock (+ xposed) or look for a 8.1 custom rom, i think after the official update there will pop up many updated ones soon.
Still working
