Hi,
from time to time all the great apps disappear in the downs of the forum. It would be nice to have all releases in one thread together - each user can now easily get to the tool he wants to get.
I want to start such a thread. Every developer who did a release can "register" his tool in this thread - also a user can do this for a developer. I will (from time to time) search this thread and copy all relevant information in this first posting.
To ease the copy to this first posting in this thread please specify the registration as follows:
category, short description, link (really a HTML link to ease copy)
categories:
Today Plugins, Scheduling, Contacts, System Utilities, Phone, Power, Benchmark, Taskmanagement, Connectivity, Snapshot (Screen), Multimedia
Maybe this threas will be sticky at a time....
Weird, last night as I went to bed I remembered all the [New release] posts (including my own) and had the exact same idea. I would definitely like to see a separate forum just for releases. It would make things a lot easier for people looking for software, and more ordered for those who publish it.
oops, little typo

Yes, this is a better idea then placing all tools into one topic. The topic would be filled with discussions and would soon become huge and useless.
Hi all,
The Android/Linux wiki is awasome and was making some fantastic progress, (all bar the *****ing and whining in some later posts and disussions) It would be fantastic if we could get a good team on the case!
Tux hero has started a new thred but has moved on to his own site Android Kernel which is hopefully looking promising.
It would be a shame to see the Blackstone Linux Wiki to go to waste after such fantastic progress was made!
Saw this on Twitter:

We can now flash kernels from the Vibrant with redbend_ua wooot!

DO NOT GO INTO THIS THREAD AND SPAM CRAP, LET THEM WORK!!!
I kept this out of the Dev forum so it doesn't clutter it up and really has no developmental worth... its really just an update. Please lets just keep this in a positive aspect.
Its all coming together now; all in good time. If you're following JAC and Wes, you'll also see they are looking through CM6 code and its "looking good"
Yep, saw the redband_ua earlier in the Galaxy S dev forum, it's a pretty exciting news, especially for those who do not have windows PC laying around to use ODIN.
This comes from a tweet posted up yesterday in case y'all missed it...www.htcdev.com/
it is in the sign up to be alerted stage right now, but it looks like HTC are starting to realise the potential of their hardware and more than likely the power of the dev community. Especially here on XDA.
Hope something awesome is in store.
Looks like we could be seeing some awesome custom roms coming our way soon

Since the mods have seen fit to lock all three threads relating to Honeycomb 3.2's launch tomorrow, I'm starting somewhere else that we can discuss this important news.
Perhaps the mods might consider merging threads rather than locking them, in future (especially when there was only a 4 minute difference in start time on the first two threads -- there's every chance that when the second thread poster started typing his post, the other one didn't exist yet.)
To get folks up to speed, here are the locked threads:

Important info from these:
* HC 3.2 will be out for the Transformer in at least some markets tomorrow
* According to ComputerWorld, writing to SD isn't possible in HC 3.2. Hopefully this is specific to the Xoom, as this is a feature I use VERY regularly, and I'll be furious if it is removed.
the mod still referenced the whole SEARCH BEFORE POSTING RULE...

I am amazed at how well Asus is at getting updates out. Granted my only previous experience in Android was with Samsung (Captivate) which is awesome in the Dev world (XDA devs really do awesome stuff on the Cappy), but Samsung and updates (whether it's their fault or not) have not been a good experience... plus I don't think they even do OTAs.
Asus has my attention, I'll keep an eye on what they continue to offer.
That second point really concerns me and I hope it's a generalisation.
Right now, I have Titanium Backup backing up to /Removable/MicroSD/TitaniumBackup. I do this primarily to keep the backups safe in the event I have to NVFlash the device and lose the contents of /mnt/sdcard (this has happened to me already!)
i bet we will see custom 3.2 from some of the well knowns within hours of it dropping. In other words, by the time Im awake, 3.2 will be an CWM update
Asus and the Dev's here are doing GREAT!

As I said, there was four minutes between threads. There's every chance that the second poster checked and there was no thread, then he spent 4+ minutes typing his own post.
But either way, there's no reason to lock a thread (still leaving a separate, duplicate thread which everybody sees and reads, but then can't reply to), rather than simply merging the two threads.
And it seems even more baffling to lock two threads as dupes, link to the supposed original, and then lock that too without any reason why, leaving people with nowhere to discuss what's one of the most important pieces of Transformer news in weeks...
I REALLY hope that the second point there is not true. I would not be as closed minded to say that it is not possible.....we just have to unlock it to make it possible.

I'm going to hope that at least 1 lock was an accident. That could happen... It's not normal to see a mod lock a thread without throwing a link to the rules in there for backup... but still... frustrating...
I modified my post to not be so tacky and to put it a little on topic... didn't really intend to steal your thread with whining..
MOD EDITED FOR CONTENT

Yeah, if the default firmware leaves us without write ability, this may be the point that finally pushes me to root my TF. I use this regularly, both to delete videos from my SD card when they've been watched (so I know what I've already watched), and to review raw files from my digital SLR, then delete the bad images to free up space. I also use the SD card as a way of transferring data between devices, because it's easier than faffing about with the network.
I am happy to see Asus doing these updates on such a regular basis. Since getting my second TF I have been increasing pleased with my purchase. Let's keep the momentum going.

Releasing lot of updates is one thing, all I want is fixes to some of issues we are having.
OK noob question here(only reason I ask is because Honeycomb and Tegra are completely different than any phone I have owned or do own). Will taking the OTA kill root on the Transformer? I probably won't accept it anyway and just wait for a flashable or nvflash 3.2 Rom. Anyway, thanks in advance folks.

Guys - my apologies. I locked the thread by mistake. I did not merge the other two duplicate threads as it creates a mess. I have reopened the original thread located here and this one will be cleaned up and closed. Again, my apologies.
