Utter Beta - Google Now alternative - EVO Shift 4G General

Hey guys read the article below on Android Police. You guys should check it out. It's an alternative for Google Now, that we It has a lot of the features of Google Now, plus a lot more. Defiantly something you should check out. Article in link has a really kool video .
Utter Beta

ive been watching his thread since the beginning of the year, its come a long way.

I have been using it for a few days. Apart from being a novelty, and very kool. It actually does work quite well. Don't get me wrong, it still needs a bit of work. But IMO it's working at least as good as Crapples version.

That is hilarious. Not at all what I expected.

I've been using this for a while now and I like it better than Google Now. They have fixed a lot of bugs lately.

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

Well my trusty hero which I only had for a a couple of months bit the big one yesterday. I went to the Sprint Store to get another one and all they had in stock for Android was a Moment.
So I guess I won't be around here as much.
This community despite some squabbles is incredible. I've enjoyed and appreciated my time here and the help I got.
The moment isn't a bad phone, I just pretend I'm running DarchDroid.
With a keyboard.

Well we're gonna miss ya for sure! Hope you can deal with the Moment until you get our EVO (providing that is what you're going to next ) I know we'll see you around......
.....Now you should root the moment and port all our goodness to them You'll be a hero......haha.
The Moment was rooted before the official 2.1 was released. They have it easy. An earlier version of the Samsung software updater let you run unsigned tarballs. So you just use that to install a custom recovery and off you go.
btw, great reference for the title. was one of my favorite books WAAYYY before the movie, they did a HORRIBLE job with Zaphod
good luck you going to sdx?
I prefer to pretend that movie never happened.
Either of them.
Going to miss you gunnyman both here and Android central.. be well.

Argh I miss my Hero already. The themes, the ports of different roms. Just don't happen over there in SDX Land. Someone is working on a Sens UI port though. On the upside. Live Wallpapers work perfectly and so does the 3d gallery at the same time.

So wait they just gave you a moment instead, no questions asked? Im gonna try this today as my hero has been acting up and if i get a replacement it would be my 4th phone already. Sprint told me they hardly ever give you a different model phone.

any update on an app that can mirror the screen through hdmi
Nope.

I've heard of that cm6.1.1 WILL do
For those interested, there is a developer who has accomplished this. If you seek, you shall find....
there was a very nice thread about it the guy had a video and everything, but the thread just disappeared
What would I search for?

It's been nine months since the release , and no one has had much success .Many have promised attention to it , but it hasn't gotten nearly enough in my opinion . Your beste bet is to try YouTube to find the guy who seems to have gotten the farthest actually seen with this project . He was on here once with an alpha testing phase. I got my fingers crossed that all goes well on a full HDMI mirroring app for all roms from stock to custom as well as asop and sense based. You could also try looking at other forums for his presence and discussion on his work. But make sure to come back to deal for all the other latest on the EVOlution...
Talk about beating a dead horse.

Now enjoy this thread, before the mods close it.
For some reason this keeps happening to HDMI threads in XDA.
It's too bad we don't have it. I busted my lcd and was afraid to take it in to the store I was wanting to have this to unroot my phone before I took it in to get fixed. Turned out they fixed it anyway but it would be neat, not that it would get used much. Just those few times that u would really want it.

You're not going to see much of anything until source code is released, or at the very least Google pushes out the update to the Nexus One. There's not a whole lot you can do with just the SDK.
It is "working" already on the Desire. With a lot of things that don't function yet. But it's nice to have a look at it, although it's still very slow.
that might just be the emulator version
which is horrible
Oh just thought there was a leaked rom out there somewhere

You better wait until a stable version comes out for us...
I can't wait for these threads every day!
Come on! Dev's have gotten SDK rips for the Evo, Eris, and even the HD2 booted. I figure since the Nexus One WAS the official dev phone, we should get a rip too. I realize that we'll probably have gingerbread in a few days but still, I'M IMPATIENT
I wish I was a bit smarter, I would do the rip myself. I don't know the first thing about reverse engineering or programming though

the ****? It is pointless, it is an SDK build, NOTHING IS GOING TO WORK RIGHT. There are NO drivers in it, NO hardware acceleration.
Why waste time with some pointless **** when the official Google update will be out in literally a few weeks?
I swear, XDA has been going down the ****ter lately with posts like this crap. What happened, did Howard Forums close down and you all had to come over here or something?

Although it's only a theme it has Gingerbread features, this is the closest you're going to get until the Gingerbread Man comes knocking. It only works with CyanogenMod 6.1 final, and Passion, but trust me it's worth it.

It's a waste of time porting the sdk .. I am sure the leaks would arrive soon..
Will Google release an official update for nexus one?
Yes they will.

[EDIT 2] ^^^^^this Gingerbread theme turned my CM6.1 into an infinite CM Bootscreen loop. Lucky I did a Nandroid backup before hand. Time to remove the battery and cross my fingers...
[EDIT] Found it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846517&highlight=slider

I've been looking for the original Cyan (Morph or Mod?) for the lockscreen that shows Messaging sliders etc too. I had it on an older pre-Nandroid backup and lost it. Can you point me to the thread in the Dev forum where I can get it please?
I looked and looked but couldn't find it. I'd like the original morph, not the whole Gingerbread theme if possible.
Thanks for your help with this.

Thanks to mazwoz

So, I am a new user to XDA, but am by no means a newbie developer. PHP, PERL, C+, .net, powershell, you name it.
I wanted to give thanks to Mazwoz, as that poor soul has received the most ridiculous amount of trash talk for no reason. Also, a thank-you for his service (assuming he is enlisted and not a contractor).
Anyways, thanks to MazWoz for your work, and I hope that this silly 10 post minimum garbage goes away.
Otherwise, I guess I'll just post 10 more threads about how silly this is.
(Actually, I won't, but it made me feel better to say so.)
Mazwoz, if you happen so see this, I wanted to get you some information about a gallery issue I am having, I might have fixed it in a reproducible way.
I agree, even though he came out of nowhere with a rom, it turned out to be remarkably smooth for a first run ICS rom. Keep up the good work, man!

My first post here..but a long time reader and follower of many ROMs.
Thankyou MazWoz. Installed it and works awesome so far..Battery life is 30 hours and counting (on regular battery), and I am power user. Excellent work.!!
Waiting for your HW acceleration and Chrome fix.
Also would like to give big thanks to mazwoz... I've been using his ROMs for a few weeks now and they have been great daily drivers. I don't ever use 4g because for my experience its unreliable at best. Thanks for a great ICS rom and keep up the great work.
Just like the first one, I've been reading, reviewing and testing long before I decided to join. A lot of appreciation to any and all developers, I am running MazWoz 4.7...props sir!
+1 here! Been using this ROM since its stormy beginnings!
4.7 is the best yet!
Question for other 4.7 users, Google music suddenly incompatable?

Truth! MazWoz is the man!!
BTW, got out of the Army as an E-5..... WAY too many years ago....
Not a fan of the 10 post minimum either, but I do understand the reasoning behind it. Just started tinkering with roms, but MazWoz-Evo JB 4.1.2 is the best one I've seen so far. So I thought I'd throw my thanks into the pile too. Look for my comments on the rom page soon... Thanks Maz!
MazWoz JB B3
I wanted to post a comment to the official development thread, but I couldn't. I have so far only been lurking in the shadows and not participating in the conversation so I'm nowhere close to the ten post minimum, even though I've been frequenting those pages for years!
I've been flashing my phone ever since my first Droid Eris had 1.6, and I've been running Maz's Jelly Bean ROMs since B1. This most recent release is (obviously) the most stable and fastest I've seen yet, and that goes for ANY JB ROM. I've tried a few, but Maz is the best. So the real reason I wanted to post was...
I want to thank MazWoz for spending so much time working on this. You have managed to breathe new life into my old-ass phone (not to be confused with my old ass-phone). Google Now is amazing, I love the new alarm clock, and the SPEED, man! Blistering!!
With B2, I was having a lot of issues when I'd open an app and it would freeze and reboot, but so far that seems to have been resolved. This ROM is so much smoother and faster in general, I don't even know where to begin singing your praises. If I could ask one favor, please include the option to center the clock in the status bar in your next release! I know you're already working on fixing the camera screen, so in summary:
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, AND THANK YOU!!! [cue applause]
