Man I busted up laughing with that too.

hah good thing i read this on April the 15th!!! u really got me! hahaha

I like it too. Good one!

U got me. My hopes were raised themn violantly stabbed to death.

windows 7 had to have been a fake.. so many of those screenshots were obviously impossible (like the mobile microsoft word if you look at it is just a screen shot of the ribbon from microsoft 2007..)
anyway.. just so you dont get your hopes up of what winmo7 will be
and paaaaaa (sorry if i fogot some a's)
nice april fools joke!
look at the reactions you got haha.. that is enough validation of a good april fools.. just wish you woulda done it yesterday

I don't think there's a windows mobile 7. The name has already been taken by the desktop version. There's 6.5.

Haha...
Windows Mobile 7 (or Windows Phone 7) is coming. What comes after 6.5 chronologically? 7

Having windows 7 and windows phone 7 would just make no sense at all! So they will skip 7 and go to an even number of 8, mostly because they like round things nowadays, i mean look at the new windows orb for a logo, and 8 is soo round it has two loops.
I cant wait to see how it actually evolves though, I hope they take ideas from htc, android, and iphone in their own unique and useful way. (thats not asking too much right?)

Say hello to windows 8!!!

2 Days left!

Nope. On the contrary, it runs much faster than windows 7, especially on old hardware and the Bulldozer cpus.

I'm sat patiently awaiting Mr. Postman to hopefully pop my copy in the letter box today as Amazon have moved the estimated delivery of tomorrow forward to today after they dispatched it.

question
I ve just bought 29eur upgrade from win7 on my netbook LENOVO S10-3T - which is touch based - i have great experience with consumer previews etc, it is not CPU hog like wrote someone before ATOM N550, 2GB RAM and SSD it is the greatest experience i ever had on desktop OS even on such poor CPU. Anyway, SSD brought to life even the WIN7 with some customization.
I have question. I have only 1024x600, but i was able to enable downscalling to cheat the metro UI to bring it to work, i use a lot my netbook on 22" screen so there it will work, but as my fresh bought copy did not finished downloading and install,
i would like to ask you if the downscalling registry hack still works on official release. I will be ready to finish fresh installation in about hour so i will ook after it but when someone has already an advice....
Thanks

My Windows 8 Pro Upgrade has arrived so here goes othing, & Hopefully will be back up and running on Windows 8 Pro.

Just installed Windows 8 Pro after buying it for $14.99 (easy to get the promo code). I'm sure it will take some getting use to, but for the price it was tough to pass up.

After running Windows update I'm now faced with a black screen & mouse pointer, is there anyway to get to safe mode in Windows 8?

I've tried several times, can get as far as logging in then nothing. I'm doing a refresh to she if that helps. I think it might be down to the activator that I had to use for the so called OEM copy of Windows 7 that I bought off of eBay that turned out to be a cloned DVD. If all else fails it's a fresh install of 7 no crack, drivers Win 8.
Can Windows 8 upgrade use the Win 7 DVD to upgrade or does it have to be installed?

if you can afford it, do it, once you get the hang of it you wont regret it at all

Yeah I hurd a lot of bad about windows 8 especially if u don't have a touch screen witch I don't but I tryed it and I love it. I think it vary worth upgrading
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium

I wasn't sure about the Start Page at first but it is easy to adjust to. Plus if you just can't stand it install Stardock Start8 and you never have to deal with it.
I now have Win8 on 2 systems and will soon have it on 3rd.
I'm really liking it!
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think it's best if you upgrade, as Windows 8 will raise in price after January 31st.
Make sure you read over all the changes, of which there are a tonne, and take advantage of them.

May as well take advantage of the cheap upgrade offers now...
I find there is no disadvantage running a mouse compared to swiping with a touchscreen, but a trackpad on a lappie is a little slower...

Trackpad is WAY faster if you have proper drivers.

hey. can i updated from a hack windows 7 to original windows 8.
I mean from their home page and pay for it -?

Ofcourse you should upgrade!!!!clear choice

New operating system+ new technology = new user experience
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium

Here's a a rough summary of Windows 8's features - ignoring the obviously new UI everyone knows about:
Multimonitor support overhaul
File Explorer improvements with ribbon
Shorter boot times
Security enhancements
Faster file copying that can be paused and maintains a single window
Redesigned task manager
Integrated social and calendar applications
Native .iso mounting
Better battery usage
Cloud synchronization
File History continuous sequential backups
Backups to network drives
chkdsk that will take 10 secs each and every time rather than hours
Storage spaces for multiple hard drives (Like an OS-based RAID 0 or 1)
50% less RAM usage
Tighter CPU control
3G data monitoring
Vastly superior conflict resolution when copying files so you know exactly which files will be replaced and the exact differences
Copy/delete jobs that never stop halfway with an "are you sure?" message while you're AFK
Easy refresh and reset options in case of operating system failure
Windows Update which is now COMPLETELY automated and will never show a single popup ever again
UEFI motherboard support
Native USB 3.0 support
With the other, miscellaneous stuff like HYPER-V and other things that don't affect me- but may be of great use to others.

This is really different from RAID. With storage spaces you can hook up random external drives to your computer and merge them to whatever drive you want. This is extremely useful for those who are too scared or do not know how to touch their hardware and those who have all-in-ones that are hard to modify.

DroidTools - The best android utility available for Mac, period.

About
A little about how this app came to be! It’s really quite simple, regular users shouldn’t have to fumble with the terminal to get a custom device experience.
We quickly realized after getting a boat load of Nexus devices that flashing via terminal with all our specific tweaks took too long. Don’t get the wrong idea we love the terminal, but we just thought, for the people out there who love their Android device and may not love code there must be a better way. We started coding, and DroidTools was born. It’s simple, easy to use, and good looking.
DroidTools is an Android utility that provides the same capabilities you'd find using ADB terminal commands available from Google, the difference being this application presents a more user friendly experience for the somewhat novice user. (Research still required) to understand what and why for example you'd wish to flash a different baseband ect. This utility doesn't have embedded phone home capabilities, and this application doesn't store ANY device specific information. If you wish to use the integrated wifi capabilities DroidTools will store only the IP address of your device to attempt connection (at the time of your choosing), and can be reset at anytime. We developed this application because we simply wanted to contribute to the Android community, and in that spirit we've made this application available at no cost to you.

Just wanted to post an update and say thank you for the underestimated interest in our free software for Android users.

Mod Edit: external click-bait link removed

Do you really believe we will receive Android O, even after not receiving Android 7.1.2?
There is not even a source on the article...
We will certainly have Android O, but it will not come from Google's hands!

One could only hope. Oh well.

What?? No source??
Must be Fake News then...... :rollingeyes:

It's a click bait article. It's fake and has no source.

@goti(0): Your response misses the point. The link the OP posted is pure clickbait. It's garbage. Your response only confirms @angourakis' post, which is that we wouldn't be receiving an official Android 8 after not receiving an official Android 7.1.2.

Why is nexus player still receiving the 7.1.2 update and is also having the android O developer preview,although it was also released in october 2014 with nexus 6:crying:

Nexus Player has the Intel Atom Z3560 which uses the 64-bit instruction set. That being said, it doesn't appear to be a very powerful piece of hardware in general like the Nexus 6 is, so who knows.

Because the Nexus Player uses a 64-bit processor (Intel Atom Z3560), like the 5X, 6P, Pixel, and Pixel XL.

You made my day with this Sir.

That site has quite a bit on it, far more than most "click bait" sites do. It actually looks like someone's putting effort into it

Nah, they're just regurgitating clickbait crap from another link posted in the other Android O thread.

NOT A FAKE NEWS! I've got the proof. Oreo is coming officially.

This would be too good to be true.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers Legacy app

I wouldn't get too optimistic. Just because some commits were found does not mean we are getting Android 8. The commits also do not explain why Google announced that we weren't seeing any further updates, and also do not explain why Google would skip a version on our devices.

Even though there are work done in AOSP for the Shamu regarding Android O, it doesn't mean that Google is going to push out an update officially. This happened to the Nexus 4 and 5 too I believe in the older days and they did not receive the versions after their EOL. On the positive side, this might be proof that the Shamu is capable of running Android O and the code for Shamu will hopefully reach out there after the full source code for Android O is out to be compiled. Makes it easier for ROM developers.
