Hi everybody,
i published my 4 part review about the HTC Hero and HTC Sense on my Blog:
http://smartphoneblogging.com/2009/09/a-longterm-windows-mobile-user-switching-to-android-part-4-htc-sense-review/
I figured this might be interesting for anybody who wants to have more in-depth information about the HTC Hero and HTC Sense. Tried to cover all HTC Sense apps in detail.
I hope this isn't against forum rules, because i really think the article could help some people getting better impressions about what HTC Sense really is, before buying the device.
If this kind of posts are against forum rules and not welcomed, please let me know.
Bye,
Shahpur
Great review and nice read, thanks for your hard work and input.
Thanks! My Blog was previously about Windows Mobile primarily, but now i added an Android section and i'm loving it.
The next part will be about all HTC Sense Widget details and layouts, and after that i already have like 40 must have android apps waiting to be reviewed...
My HTC Sense Widgets review should be live on sunday.
This is the link to the complete review series up to Part 4:
Review series of a former Windows Mobile user switching to Android
Also added two picture galleries, the HTC Sense picture gallery already sports pics of EVERY HTC Sense app and Widget and EVERY widget layout (this might be interesting for people who want to see all widget layout prior to buying an HTC Hero):

and
HTC Sense picture Gallery
Just published my next part of the review series. This time i'm reviewing each HTC Sense widget and each available layout in detail.
HTC Sense (HTC Hero) widgets in-depth review
Hope this helps. I know that before buying the HTC Hero, i was searching everywhere to see how many calendar widgets are available and how they work, but couldn't find this information in any review on the big sites. Therefore i went the whole way now, and reviewed each widget and widget layout on my blog, so anybody can see in detail what the HTC Sense widgets really are.
Makes an interesting read.
Keep it coming.
Thanks,

Hi guys,
i published a Palm Pre hardware review and compared it to my HTC Hero.
Hope this is interesting for you:

Next part will be about Android vs. WebOS.
Screenshot Gallery of WebOS:

Palm managed to create a really stylish UI. And the usability is also very good. Review will follow soon, but if you are interested take a look at my WebOS picture Gallery.

Now my WebOS in-depth review is published too:

I'm comparing many features to Android and especially with the HTC Hero (Browser, general OS Speed and so on).
Hope you'll like the article.
Please leave a comment on my blog, if you have anything to add to the review

It's now more than 6 months ago when i switched from Windows Mobile to Android, and therefore i wrote down some of my experiences comparing both OS and the migration from WM to Android.

Maybe this will help some people decide if they should try out Android.
Hi everyone,
I am part of a small tech start up from Manchester, UK and we have recently created an app using Phonegap. Don't know if many of you have used Phonegap before but it has many limitations. However we are using it as a first try whilst we learn how to make a native app.
I wanted to ask for some feedback about the Android app (we've made an iOS app also but Android is something we want to work on more) as I've received mixed reviews about it's appearance etc.
The app is to help users discover emerging music videos. If anyone could take a look and give any feedback/advice I would really appreciate it and take it all on board. Similarly if anyone else needs any feedback or constructive criticism I would be happy to look at other people's apps.
This is the first time I have posted on here but I wanted some developer advice and I hope I haven't broken any rules/guidelines.
The app is called Rormix - just search the Google Play Store
Thanks, Emma.
Hi,
Your app looks good. My first advice would be to follow the Android Design Guidelines. For example on the the action bar. Those three dots on the left are confusing. Maybe these links can help you

Hey guys, I recently launched a new service that lets you create a beautiful landing page to market your app in just 5 minutes! I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback on it. What features would you like to see added? Thoughts on pricing, etc?
Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi there, just posted on Google Plus - i think, i should do it here too
What a nice year ... yes ... not only the big event on February is coming, but the loved Phoenix Launcher comes back! what do you think about?
Ok, some users are knowing about "Aviate" Launcher, bought by YAHOO. I tested it - but ... WTF ... there are a lot of missing features! OK, Phoenix Launcher comes back - WITH this missing features
And, thats not all news: Phonix Launcher becomes a really Open Source project! Nothing to pay for, no ads! The next time, i upload the complete project to a public GIT repository, so you can profit from patches - made by users for users!
Please, comment - i want to know if you want to use it or not

Hi everyone.
This is my first post in the Android Development forum.
I am looking at designing an app which will function as follows: Say there are 4 sub units, each accessible through the hamburger side menu.
Each page should have a list of dates, basically events. The user should get notifications based on their preferences which will be either one day before, on the day, 1 week before, etc.
These event dates will be updated once a year by way of a play store update.
I have no java experience whatsoever, but I want to learn. I need the community's assistance in finding the correct place to start. I have tried winging it in the past and just ended up with a lot of app crashes. Would also like to make it as material design as possible.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
