No doubt!!!!!!!

love that background... if you don't mind where did you get it?
EDIT: also if you're using the Stock ICS Launcher. open your app drawer, tap "widgets" and scroll over to Calender to see what it has for the "demo" pic

+1 It looks awesome...

It's also with FKEXREPAER R9 based on the .19 leak. Acer humour
Best regards, maris

This is a known Easter egg. Its been on every version (stock) of android released. On Gb theres a "zombie gingerbread" picture, on honeycomb there's the bee and on ICS, the ICS android... It's more Google humour than Acer...

Well, obviously not everyone knew. Seems most appreciate me sharing the info.

forgive me for hijacking the thread.... but i see from your screen shot that you have the acer ring dot on your bar, Have you been able to get it to work? I have the lock screen ring working but not the main ring.
Yes I have it selected in settings...

Let me guess... You didn't follow the instructions to install your ROM, which recommended a full wipe?!

no i did not do a full wipe, If it matters, I am on the .22 stock leak with blackthund3r root.

As far as I know, the Acer ring function is implemented only in Vache's and Civato's ICS ROMs, but not in the other ROMs based on the Acer ICS leak.
Best regards, maris

I'd love to have this as a boot animation.

That should not be too hard to do... However, I personally don't care about boot animations, as I reboot my tab less than once a month under normal circumstances.

Quick question, so now that the Gingerbread SDK is released,,what does that mean? Do that mean that Devs will start making roms based off that or that the official Gingerbread 2.3 is right around the corner?
Any word on whether or not they decided to use that BlindType keyboard that they bought earlier?
I KNEW IT!! haha thank you

I'm not going to lie. I'm not impressed. Android's copy and paste icons look like something from about 10 years ago to me. I like HTC's version better.
And the updated ui does look a little better now that everything is black with green highlights. Still an ugly ui overall.
It just helps app developers get up to speed. People have tried to do roms from these but they come out very hacky at best. The source for 2.3 is needed for full roms. The is the sdk.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I suppose that HTC has it in development already so they can inlay Sense over top of this. Also, now all the Dev's can start developing their new Rom's with this base. Hopefully Flipz is still on top of his game! No telling how long it will be before Sprint is done with it. I would imagine they will hold up any official update for whatever they have to do. It's just a matter of time now.
I swear I've embedded videos on the forums here ...
Android 2.3 sure looks ugly. I guess I'll be making a theme that makes it look like Froyo.
it means devs can start making apps for it im i think , but knowing xda theyll do their thing and have roms out before the official release

One of the stated features of GB is "better keyboard". One would assume that may mean "yes" to your question.

Does the Hero have Froyo? Does the Moment? We wont know until/if it happens.
Either way we probably won't see a official 2.3 device on Sprint for at least a few months.

[WIP] Stock Gingerbread Theme for DX

Here's a little something I'm cooking up for everyone running the gingerbread leak. yes you will need to be deodexed and obviously you will need to be rooted.
this includes the screen off animation, stock gb keyboard as an option (if you like the dx gb keyboard you can still use that), and a transparent notification background. let me know what you guys think and if you have any suggestions

i am liking the looks of this keep up the good work. I would love to be able to change the icons on the stock blur launcher.
Definitely will try this out whenever you release it.
I hope those icons change to white when it's not connected to google servers and green when it does like stock Android or like blur(from white to blue) ..

Awesome news. A couple of questions, though.
Are you pulling all images possible from the GB source itself?
And will you be able to change the light that shows up at the bottom/top of menus from blue back to the AOSP orange?

I am shooting for a release within the next couple days. Then updates will be made to things I have missed. All you need to revert back will be a backup of your current set up

An undo zip would essentially be the same thing as a backup. Flashed the same way and more reliable than me having to go through and create a whole separate zip reverting all of my changes.

Flash 10.2 update is out!!!

Hello Xoomers! I just noticed an update for Adobe Flash player 10.2! The marketplace states that the update takes advantage of multi-core processors and includes other performance improvements. Checking it out now.
I think it's been out for weeks now

No... that was the beta.
This is 10.2 and flash sites that used to lag before are very smooth now.
you should be able to run anything in flash now i.e. facebook games and other things like that

that was "beta".
I did a clean install after flashing my Xoom last night. I installed Flash 10.2.157.10 then and just now I got a notice that Flash 10.2.157.51 is out.
So its a new update...
a lot of mention of "Android 3" in the update description. I guess they mean Honeycomb 3.0

I just got my Xoom today, Android market report the Flash as 10.2.156.12.
Hopefully this will change soon. Im located in the UK.
The update does show up on my Galaxy Tab running 2.2
Update:
the newer version is now available for the XOOM. but flash in Opera mobile browser don't work any more.

Android 3 = Honeycomb 3.0. What's wrong with calling it Android 3? We call all other phones with Android 2.2 or Android 2.3 etc.. We're on 3 right now lol.
I'm only seeing the beta app for honeycomb. Not anything new.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
Definitely a difference. Amazon Prime videos weren't working before and are working now. Some Flash games had updated recently and broken and are working now and with better performance.
Great, I can download 10.2.157 on my thunderbolt, but it doesn't show up on my xoom
well the best features from this update
wont be available until google updates honeycomb apparently.
people whose update isn't showing up..
restart your xoom, then immediately go to the market
then hit my apps and your update should show up in the left
i got the update today,it says the hardware accelerated flash was for 3.1 only, but it runs flash way smoother now then before, also flash doesnt drain the battery as much as it did before
Sweet! Thanks for the heads up OP!
this updated a big improvment if you let your gf play fb games on the xoom
all the popular fb games work perfectly now

Yep. Hate to get all pedantic but it's either Android 3/3.0 OR Honeycomb. The number is a version of Android OS, Honeycomb is just the codename for it.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
plus our software is listed as 3.0.1
so maybe it was a typo by them saying 3.0.1 lol
if motorola updates the xoom software, i wonder if the google version will even change
I hope someone patches this new version quickly with the hulu fix!

Android 3.0 Tablet Under $200?!

I haven't got any replay on my previous Flytouch 5 post
so i have to search again and again.. if you guys find a tablet which based in Android 3.0 Honeycomb, also capacitive touch screen,and Samsung S5PV210 processor, and the most important just $189.99, what will you think? link is here
The china market has started their price war? lol
anyway, i want to share this with you guys,and i am still considering which tablet i should get...

This is certainly NOT Honeycomb. It's a Gingerbread lookalike which uses CM7 as base and is skinned like HC.

Go Launcher HD for Tablets v1.0 Beta

I just stumbled across this today and so far I really like it. I was using the Trebuchet launcher on Thor's ICS v96, and although it does have a lot of customization it is slightly laggy. So far Go Launcher HD is running super smooth with no noticeable lag.

It appears there is very minimal options available (It is a BETA, I will forgive them)
Themeing is not a option, yet.. Maybe keep an eye out.
I like the new dock, but they need to use more of the screen for available widgets, utilizing ALL of the screen.
I can compare say, Stock Launcher, to GoLauncher Ex, where the margins on the side are smaller, giving more space, maybe I am insane. At this stage, I have set up something, but I am not a huge fan and will go back to GoLauncherEX until they sort out the theme issue and give us more options. Hopefully they can implement all those of the normal EX and maybe some more? EG, making wallpapers work better (most of us are faced to use Multipicture Live to correct incorrect showing wallpaper)
in short, it is good, but not great.. yet. Hopefully with updates, this is fixed
It's only a beta but so far so good. I'm sure themes will be an option down the line, and I agree that the top and bottom margins are way too big.
Really like it can't wait to see what happens next really sleek and fast launcher compared to the phone ver. On tablets...
