[Q] Android on HP Pre3 / Veer? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure about the right forum for this one, so posting it here... mods, move if you need to.
I am interested in buying an HP Pre 3 if I can get my hands on a cheap one... and/or an HP Veer. Seeing as HP has announced $75 for the Pre3 in UK and France, I hope the Veer would also see a similar price drop.
But the real question is: is Android going to be ported to the Pre3 and/or Veer? Afaik, both phones' hardware should be capable of running it, in principle.

Price drop announced in France... I would also like to know if we could have Android on Pre3.

If it's ported to the Touchpad, It could very well be added to the Pre, the only thing is how the Home/Menu/Back Buttons would work.

I'm serious about this. Calculate the price after its change (phone cost + shipping cost to Macedonia), and if reasonable, buy me +1.

I must be the only guy in the world that actually had a Pre3 on Preorder. If I can pick up another few in the firesale then i'm happy to ship them out to people at cost. Drop me a PM and I'll do firstcome first serve.

When's it due on sale in the uk?

I had one, but just got an email from the supplier saying that HP recalled the stock which was going to be sent to them, so my order was cancelled.
Shame, I was really looking forward to getting one... I hope I can grab one in the fire sale, but I probably won't...

I wish someone could make this happen for the Veer. I saw an article on precentral that someone was able to port a semi-working version of android to the original pre and pre plus. should be able to do the same for the Veer if someone put their mind to it. PLZ!

would be interested in running android on my pre3.
missing the android market a lot.
pre3 should have some potential for developers I guess.

I think it would be easier to handle these buttons when Ice Cream Sandwich reaches AOSP

Or SB develop driver to handle gestures like swipe to left = "back", swipe to right = "menu" and just tap = "home".

Any news?
XDA-developers has Beta MIUI.us Tenderloin HP TouchPad 2.3.7 by scott951 done, does anybody know if i can use this ROM to install android on HP Veer 4G?
I tried with alpha releases and nothing.

I'm curious about buying an HP phone too. The Pre3 looks nice but I think I want the Veer.
Maybe someone will develop an Android version to work on them. The issue with the home/back/menu buttons would be solved if they used 4.0. I think there's an app in the market that uses on screen buttons too.
~100 Euros for such a nice piece of hardware, the only thing holding me back is the fact that my whole life works around my android handset

Bump
I own a Touchpad and a Pre3, running one of the latest ICS nightlies from Eyeballer on the Touchpad and it rocks dual boot with WebOS.
It would rock to have it on the Pre3 too, as WebOS doesn't have whatsapp, which is needed on a phone these days.
As the Pre and Pre2 had some Android version running, I was hoping the Touchpad ICS could be ported to Pre3 pretty easily.
Not as many Pre3's out there as there are Touchpads, but still reasonable numbers I think as they were sold in UK, France, Germany and some other countries. If I look at this picture the Pre3 would be a candidate for ICS/CM9

Who will be switching over

Hi all,
I see a lot of familiar/famous faces here allready.
Would be good to know which Devs are porting over to the Raphael.
May also help with Development work if we have a list of Developers that will be here from the beginning.
So far I believe we have
Mamaich
Bepe
Olipro
CMonex
JJ
Dutty
Laurentius
myself
Who else will be joining us?
Cheers,
Beasty

Looks like the old Universal team is back together
Myself included!
You can count me in for any help with ROM testing - my upgrade is due in 4 weeks and counting...
Well whenever this comes to ATT I'll compile another thread devoted to tweaking and removing all of the random crap that is bound to come with the ATT version...
Upgrade or no upgrade available on my contract, I'm getting this phone (but I can wait for a non-front camera version for about $200 less than the $904 price it's at right now.)
I'm certainly ready to jump on the Raphael bandwagon, but the details for the 3G radio for us yankees are still questionable. Until I see what the US version is, I'm not getting really excited about it. Other than a RAM/ROM/Processor upgrade, there isn't much of a gain. Also, until this thing gets in the hands of some XDA users, we won't know if they made a similar mistake as they did with the Kaiser in terms of drivers and hardware implementation.
HTC Omni with Android - yes. Another rehash of the Wizard, meh.

Pretty sure that TouchFlo 3D needs D3D acceleration to work?? The GFX drivers situation should be almost identical to the diamond, so best to take a gander at the diamond forum and see if any issues are apparent?
You're absolutely correct.
But let us not forget that HTC's devices from years ago perform better graphically then the Kaiser. Who'd have ever thought THAT would happen (especially considering the vast technological improvements)?!?!
I have been lurking on the Diamond forums keeping an eye on how things play out. We still haven't seen a US-based Diamond variant yet.

Yes McHale but even if that is the case the Touch Pro is running the same chipset as the Diamond (7201A) so people could just make hybrid ROMs incorporating the best of both devices. Next question.
I'm not talking about the video specifically, I'm talking about support and proper implementation of hardware. Believe me, I'm not bashing HTC. I have enough devices I can say I supported them quite a little. I'm saying we haven't seen a US model yet and until I see the model that will work in the states, we don't know how well it will be implemented.

I've done the same mate, the Raphael should arrive just before we fly off to Florida (hopefully) gives me plenty of time to work on some Roms whilst away (and a new toy to play with on the plane)
Stocks for pre-orders are running a bit low on most UK sites now though, so be quick if you do want one. Expansys did me one for £460 with case and cables TV Out etc. I imagine prices will rise slightly after release and demand will be pretty high. The Uni finally gets chance to have a rest in the Bottom-Drawer Beasty PDA vault.

What's happening with handtec.co.uk ?

Guys, who all have got sgs2 today as promised by handtec in uk ?
R u guys happy with their delivery service ? Why no one has posted their new experience with this phone ?
One strange thing is bugging me, eventhough sgs2 is such a popular device around the world, why handtec still has huge stock left ? Is it because they have too much of stock or no one except few crazy people like me have bought it from them ?
I mean this is very strange for handtec, as new device gets released arlest we have to wait for min 1 month until we get the devices in stock. Atleast that's what happened to me last year when I ordered htc desire...
I guess the reason could be because of the samsung's thoughtful plan of releasing it throughout the world at the same time or around a minimum duration.
Or it might be because of lack of NFC which is preventing people from buying it online from uk ??? I think it's the least cause for the people to do it that way for such a master piece in the whole mobile industry till today....
This is what I guess whenever I see " in stock next day delivery" on their website now....
Anyone could possibly know what's the genuine reason for handtec still having the stocks in ???
no its because handtec is HUGE and they ordered a huge supply..

I just hope there is stock left at the end of the week. Because if AT&T/Samsung do not announce the S II U.S. launch date at their press conference Thursday, I will be ordering from UK.
It sounds like they are launching in 120 countries this week and next so I assume they made sure to have plenty of stock.
Any chance of them reducing the price of sgs2 to promote the sales ?
If it's like that, then I am here to wait for another 2 wks..... You know competition is always good for customer....
Samsung has really done a great job by decentralizing the availability of their master piece till date.....
I think it's foolishness tobexpect the price drop atlasest for another 3 months....
My bad..... I will order for one from them.... It would have been nice if the UK model carried NFC chip along with it.... Too bad that samsung played a dirty trick to boost their sales figures.....
Hmm.... Pls don't repeat this trend samsung.... No one likes it .....
Can we have some unboxing pics & new hands on experience from UK buyers.... Pls many people here like me are dying to see this sexy showing off it's true collies until we all have one in our hands.... Pls.... It's a request to those who have already bought it... Tease us with pics, not by just asking or commenting about new feature or doubts..... We as fed up of seeing those threads with questions about new features & unknown things about sgs2.....
Come on guys..... Do us some favour by posting things what we would like to see here....
it is actually a interesting question, why wouldn't they have stock?
They know how many are pre-ordered and they just got it from samsung, that's it
After all handtec is a big business, I trust their ability to fulfill all pre-orders and having a handful handsets left for sale.
Yeah I hope so.... Over a period of years they must have learnt s lesson on his to stay ahead in the market with many new competitors introduced.....
Actually it's a good thing gig them as well as for us....
I wish they have enough stick till I order one for me from them... way to go handtec.... Keep it up
Also I am dying to see someone post screen shots of unboxing & hands on review pls ... Only pics would suffice our desires to see this beauty flying in colours....
you'll have to wait for tomorrow for that...
They have same day delivery services in uk?

Every Best Buy in GA shows "unavailable" but a store I called said 2 of them still had them. They said it's not showing as discontinued but they don't know when more will come in. Did I miss out?

To be honest, I'm not sure. The price did drop a couple of months ago to $299, and they sold like crazy. I'm not sure what HTC's plans are with it, but I've heard that BB stores may show 1 in stock, but that may be the floor model. I don't know if HTC really knows what to do with it, but there has been Honeycomb leaks and such, so time will tell if they officially release HC for this device.
The plot thickens.....I called 3 Best Buy stores and got 23 different answers. Yes I'm being sarcastic. One store though said "it's discontinued because of poor sales". I called Corporate and they said it has been pulled for the "sale" tomorrow. Whatever that means.

I would think if HTC was going to dump it, the recent update would of never happened. Best Buy is going to ruin my Christmas. So what if I wasn't good this year? My money is good!

I'm not surprised, they don't know. There were poor sales because the price was over $500 for it, so since other tabs were around $299, that's a no brainer. I'm not sure what they mean by pulled for the sale either...? I would think that if they had stock, the thing would sell great, but who knows? It sounds like Best Buy doesn't know either.

Jury is out on that, there's been 3 leaks, so there's something going on there...
I was worried that the $299 price drop was an indication that BB and HTC were clearing stock as they discontinued the device. Looks like this may be the case, and the new price was too good to be true. The fact that HTC's 10.1" tablet is also waaay overpriced suggests that the price drop wasn't an acknowledgment that HTC's pricing structure is unrealistic. And all this leads me to believe that HTC will probably end up having to exit the tablet market altogether. Oh, well, there's always ASUS and Samsung.

The following Forbes article speculates that Black Friday will being tablet market dominance by Apple, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble, spelling "doomsday" for all other tablet manufacturers.
http://www.forbes.com/sites/terokuittinen/2011/11/22/black-friday-tablet-doomsday-for-many-phone-vendors/
Maybe a bit extreme, although I see the point that Amazon is going to shake up the tablet landscape in the coming months. I expect at least Samsung to hang tough for some time. And HTC seems to be still in the fight, at least for the short term, with a 10.1" quad core tablet in the works:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-57326923-251/quad-core-htc-quattro-tablet-details-leaked/
The Quattro may help explain the demise of the Flyer. Even though its not the same 7" form factor (which I really like), it would seem unwise for HTC to keep 3 tablets in the lineup, if none are selling too well. And with the Flyer already 6 months old, its not surprising to see it drop from the lineup.
I'm not buying the Forbes article's take on tablets as a whole, but I suspect it's on target as far as HTC goes. HTC made a mistake in pricing the Flyer at $500. It was also a mistake not to have a 10" tablet to market at the sane time. Had HTC priced the Flyer at $400 and had a 10" tablet out at $500 they might have had a shot.
But I do think that the Forbes article's post-mortem on Samsung is way premature. The Nook Tablet and the Fire are going to shake up the market this Christmas, but consumers are not going to settle for tablets with such limited functionality that are tied so closely to one vendor's ecosystem.
I bought all of the HTC Flyers. That's why there's none left..Muhaahahahahaaa
I was in Best Buy yesterday and asked about the flyer and was told that it is being cleared out because a new HTC was being released next month, but I really do not believe that, as for the Flyer I know of a place that has over 786 of them to sell, it is a good place to buy from ,I have purchased from them many times because they are here in my town and I can go to their outlet, http://www.techforless.com/cgi-bin/tech4less/HTCFLYERP512
The term open box means that they open up the boxes and check out the contents to make sure they are in good shape and working order, that way they can sell it at a reduced price. Plus you can get a extended warranty from them also, believe me they have great stuff and well worth the price which is much better than Best Buy.

Great info, thanks moe!
I live in GA and got one at the beginning of the month at a BestBuy Mobile shop at the mall.
I just don't understand if they're supposedly clearing them out, why would they raise the cost of the Scribe pen back to $79.99?
Well I think its a safe bet that HTC is not manufacturing any more Flyers. The only question is how much stock is still floating around

Ok but why the update on 11/14? To support the existing Flyers I suppose?
Yeah, support.
It's cheaper to do a production run of a million or 2 than to start and stop assembly lines. So HTC probably produced all they wanted in May - June and are just selling what remains. That's typical.
My Best Buy still has a display model set up. Maybe they finally have the HC update done so they pulled remaining stock, and are repacking them with HC ROMs so no one gets one without it? I know it is probably a long shot but you never know.

I like the optimism. Lets say ICS instead and shoot for the stars!
I went to BB yesterday and the managers told me that they are not discontinued, but that the corporate store would not sell them any more for some unknown reason, but they do plan on selling it again once they get some more stock. She emphasized that it is not discontinued.

This should get development going, no? :laugh:
probably not. that has been the price for quite a while now..
when showp will manage to crack it and to get a proper kernel - that would get development going..
it seems to be very hard to get something done with this device.

That's a shame. I didn't realize it was so cheap for so long--is the only thing really holding this tablet back the lack of 4.x support? I thought when it came out, the reason it didn't sell was because it so expensive . . . Now that the price is so low, why wouldn't people start picking it up? Also, I don't see anyone selling it this cheap anywhere else, at least brand new.
Plus, the more people that pick one up, the bigger the demand/incentive for 4.x support, which HOPEFULLY translates into more donations for developers.

Update: the $253 BIN JetStreams are now gone from eBay. There's another guy selling 10 (1 has already sold) for $280 with free shipping.
it started off as ultra-expensive and got very little demand.
seeing the low demand HTC and at&t neglected the device, not bothering to update it to 4.x android. that pretty much killed it.
the rest of the units are being sold around in relatively low prices, most of them refurbished.
since no developer purchased the device - there's no development going. the device has such tiny community that its considered dead. look at the forum here, practically no movement at all. no developer would get his head into this sick bad. we had to find one, collect money and buy a device for an excellent guy to work on. and as good as he is, its still taking months to overcome HTC's **** job on this one.
but all of that doesn't really matter. once showp1984 will get the kernel to work, i'm guessing we'll be jumping pretty much straight to android 5.x. and you will see some action in the forum.
I hope you're right. The hardware on this thing is so good (except for the "low res" screen), it's a shame it got killed off so quickly. Is there anything we, the non-programming members of the rooting community can do to help? Other than send showp our positive thoughts, and eventually, our money. ?
eventually showp will crack this kernel thing, and then we (non-programing) could try and look for as many ROM developers as we can. this will create a pool of ROMs and maybe revive this device a bit.
Ohhhhhh dilema for me, price dropped to 225 us$. Should I? Or wait for new HTC unknown when. Or get 4cores? What say you guys?
This is not the droid you're looking for.
every other tablet goes for this price...
if u can wait - do so and see if the development worked.
if u cant wait - don't touch this one.
Ouach, you got in. I'm a 7" phone tablet person. Was pondering this jetstream because HTC sense, then the sync is so much better Samsung kies.
Current P1000 damaged a few times concern times up, need a replacement soon. Tried wife's 4.7" but impossible to go back now. Size up is the way. I don't game on android. Just work, comic, reading, little bit video during flight or waiting.

Updates?
Hey guru,
I can't reply on the development posts yet, but I was wondering--any word from Dennis on development?
Also, I realized DoomLord already released a kernel for the JetStream . . . What is Dennis working on for us now?
Thanks!
dennis is still working. he's creating a proper kernel using the newest linux versions. that is required for the kernel to support JB versions. since there is no other developer or any similar device - he's doing all the work himself - which takes time (also because he's working on other devices).
what doomlord made was far from perfect, and caused alot of issues for some of us. dennis is much more thorough in his work.
So, what I'm seeing here is that the Jetstream might be worth getting. I've been wanting one for a while now, but just haven't done it. I'm actually waiting to get my wife a Sam Note 10.1 before I get a tablet. She really wants one for work and I want the Jetstream, first, because it's HTC's only 10" tablet, and second, just to play with. I've been watching this forum just to see how much hope there is and it sounds promising.
i would wait for the development to finish. i'm not suggesting the kernel won't work - but it doesn't exist yet. wait for it..
I agree with Guru, but if you just need a tablet for basic stuff, like web browsing, email, Netflix, etc., the Jetstream is fine for all of that. Some apps are not compatible because it's still on 3.1, but otherwise it's a solid tablet for a pretty good price right now. If you NEED ICS or JB, then I'd go with something else, or, like Guru suggested, wait.
