The engadget stage ui version - Streak 5 Android Development

Hi guys
I just wondered if theres anyway to get hold of the olderand cooler stage ui that was pictured on the engadget website ? With its radio ,books and movies widgets,as I'd love djsteve to get hold of it and include it in his builds in the future .
Anyone know if this would be possible at all ?

Stage UI is included in both djsteve's 1.2 and 1.3

Yes i know , but the version pictured on the engadet page has extra widgets on it compaired to the officially released version

We are working on a few leads.

Brilliant . I reckon if that was on the next build , there would be alot more converts to it.

European 2.2 version has radio, books and movies ? Cool! If this so , i may just wait for it....

Is it possible for someone to post the social widget apk? I would really appreciate it, thanks.

anyone know where I can download the "engadget" version? it's available somewhere?
thx!

Perhaps engadget's version is an unfinished update or something. I can't see it being anything else, although, in typical android fashion, updates sometimes move backwards rather than forwards so i wouldn't be surprised if we never see it...

I always read about before posting. the last post in the thread was november 22, so I asked about it.

Not sure if this is the answer you guys are looking for but the pics I saw on the engadget post showed the home screen with what looks like a dock. However, it is not.
As with DJ steves builds in the past if you hit the home button it will show you a preview of all home screens. In the Stage UI if you hit the home button you will see the dock looking thing pictured in the engadget post.
Hope this helps.

Swype has expired!?!?!?

Hi Guys,
I've been using Swype for about the last 6 months on the Windows Mobile side of things and it was probably the first app I looked for once I made the switch to Android. I opened a thread asking for a version I could use on Android and someone kindly pointed me in the direction of one. I have been using it for about the last 2-3 months on dans froyo build and it was fine. I made the switch to Hyperdroid yesterday and today I got 'your trial period has ended. please upgrade your copy of swype'. I still get the keyboard but I can't Swype!!!
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing and keep getting the same problem. If anyone can post a working up-to-date version and/or help me with my problem? Any help would be much appreciated, it's the only keyboard for me now.
Thanks in advance

Swype is no longer free, you need to purchase it in order to use the latest version. And people can no longer post it in these forums. Sorry, dude.

Not 100% sure about this one but one of the guys from Swype came through the forums a while back and said something like their working on the final version, and until it comes out their won't be a full version available. I think that was the jist of it.
I have version 1.56 for Android and it hasn't expired, I've had no problems with it on any Android build I've used. PM me for more information
UPDATE:
Just checked the Swype website, no download links, here's what I found:
------
Swype Beta for Android™
The Swype Beta is CLOSED
June 2010: Thanks for your interest, the Beta is now closed.
Please register here and we will notify you when the beta re-opens.
------
This confirms what I said, no final version yet, it was just beta testing. Not quite sure why mine still works, but no complaints

Read my above post. I promise it's the truth! That's why you can't find it on the market. Weird, I'm using 1.56 with no issues...
1.61.xx.xxxx here works great doesn't scale to 180 dpi perfect for people with fat fingers like me..
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
I have never used it but there is an app in market called "SlideIT". They have a Demo to try. If you like they have the full version to buy.
The version I have, and have been using on every build for the last month or so is 1.61.37.8128_WVGA800_by_jd ... according to the long ass file name lol. It's a great version, much better than the 1.56 I previously had. Bold letters, less annoying "click" sounds. I love it. Which is why I've kept the APK of it on my SD card the whole time...</hint>

it cannot be bought as yet.. as it is still in beta.. plus it would appear it will only be available to OEMs.

actually.. the swype version most of us have been using is the 1.56.. that was the last or second to last release of the beta version which expired back in may. some1 dunno who apparently cracked the expiration lock so we could keep using it. .. i think what they did now was just reset the timer or whatever.. so thats why every1's is expiring again today

[Development] gingerbread streak style

Wanted to let everyone that I have gingerbread running on the streak. The current progress I have at the moment looks and feels great but....
Problems: wifi is dropping connection frequently and having random FC for various different components.
It is what I would consider pre alpha so I will not even post an update file for you guys yet. Will keep everyone posted as to when I will post the first actual build. Should have a decent stable version for you guys possibly as a Christmas gift. Will post photos of it soon.

If they change the architectural software structure of Ice-cream(2.4 or 3.1?) then no it would not upgrade, But I would bet a dollar the phone will be able to handle at least 2 or 3 more upgrades before software and apps will require a larger ram and duo core cpu
BTW way to the other posting....... froyo, gingerbread etc are the code names they gave each version of android....... 2.2, 2.3 etc

Well either you or he was confused. There's more than a couple Gingerbread themes out there, but thats all they are is themes. There is one EXPERIMENTAL Gingerbread build out, but as such, its not stable and could not be used daily.
Its being worked on, but Samsung has not even released the 2.2 source yet. When that happens, maybe some doors will be opened in that direction.
But as of right now there is NO stable Gingerbread rom, no matter what your friend told you. If there was you would have gotten actual help, instead of some of the less serious responses.

You guys are ass holes and also idiots. The OP and the guy you quoted asked and stated real things. Just because gingerbread currently isn't stable doesnt mean the guy wasnt running it on his phone.

So, once I get to the development forum how do I get it and install it on my phone ? Thanks for the information and help. Appreciate it.

Got Root? Get the Nexus S 4G Swype

I deleted the OP.. go get the beta, it was updated 8-23-11 with the new features.
Lots of goodies.. new gestures and the ability to edit your dictionary now.
I LOVE that I can go from swype > t > w to share via twitter.

Honeycomb on HP Touchpad? [EXPOSED]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb8kBW_RAeY
THIS IS NOT REALLY HONEYCOMB.
This is the Chomper Android ipk with a HONEYCOMB LAUNCHER.
The Launcher can be downloaded here:
http://syndicateapps.com/main/Honeyc...er_Rebuild.apk
I am in the process of building a system.img file that CLOSELY RESEMBLES Honeycomb. The intention of the video was to excite people and let them see what is possible. For those of you who said that this is NOT Honeycomb, you were correct. Congratulations. For those of you who got violent, get help.
My build will be available soon. I will laugh when the nay sayers download it.
Cheers!
I saw this on another site and it's amazing. When do you plan to release? I REALLY WANT!
This isn't honeycomb, judging from the lock screen, the menus, and the small gap between the bottom bar and the bottom.
Still, it IS android, most likely the Chomper version, and pretty cool.

Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Guys this is the honeycomb launcher made by IntelSoft Apps.....not a honeycomb build. It looks exactly the same on any phone or tablet. Thats why colors are off, and the gap between the bottom and status bar. Notice that if you click on an app inside of it, the status bar is no longer there. Dont believe me, then try it out for yourself.

It's cool, man. I'll explain.
I have been making a Mod of Chomper's Android ipk that is much larger img file, and has gapps, and uses a Honeycomb Launcher to give it a more "tablety" feel to it. As a teaser, I posted a very obvious troll vid that shows what appeared to be REAL Honeycomb on the Touchpad. Most people realized that it wasn't true, others thought it was a joke, and some people mailed me severed heads and shot my dog. Either way, I have EXPOSED the truth now, and everyone can rest easy knowing that I am working on something legitimate and not just an ass.
Well, I'm still an ass, but I have something worthwhile to contribute too!
