Did you not watch until the end where he was scrolling up and down that list just as smooth as on the iPhone, still in development but it looks so cool.
holy ****. Did anyone else notice HOW FAST all the apps opened up when he pressed them? It takes at least 1-2 seconds more on my device 8525!!! Can anyone here figure out how he is able to make it open sooooo fast?
(1) he is using a Eten phone rather than a HTC?
(2) he probably had it minimized as oppose to closed, that you might have done?
perhaps he did not use HTC X button, or something like that to really close application, not only minimize them. but you right, it is really fast. maybe he overclock his device. In my old FS Loox n500 I can overclock my CPU to 550MHz and it was fast too.

let the programing begin guys. i see that this is done by programing (ppl) is this really hard to do.
now question guys? if our great programers on here are albe to recreate damn near almost everything in the iphone. Would you go by one?
This is the guys site:

See some more pictures and urge him to release it to the PPC world..
Hi there....
i think this is just a wisbar skin .... isn't it???
that phone probably has a faster processor than the hermes, and thats why everything opens faster...

The apple's shadow..
If you read his blog will understand.
But he said that may release the stuff in the future (maybe when iphone will be in stores).
Now whe can wait or develop for ourself or.. avoid apple?
Let's get to Working Delvlopers...i talked to him he won't release it for legal issues. Which sux but i know we can develop it!!
I defenately like this.
A Damn good job.
Eten uses the similar processor as ours...
Samsung SC32442A 400MHz processor vs
Samsung S3C 2440 400 MHz Processor
well he's a bit dim then for making a big deal of it before he released it. if he released it first then apple would doubtfully have a leg to stand on to do anything about it.
its not using any of their code, its not making money. what makes it any different than Skins for windows etc.
This guy's good. Only a few weeks since the announcement of the iphone and he's already got a working slidelock & iphone-esque scrolling.
He's got to release. Be it via bittorrent, sendspace-etc where apple can't really touch him. He's not using their code, as gibbon said above, so all he has to do is lose the iphone graphics and apple can't really touch him.

just talked to SE Norway, about update release, q3 here too but no official date.
BUT we came into talking about custom roms and stuff (dunno why)
and he said the main reason for making it as tricky and not sharing anything, is because they want their own dev's working on it...
wtf? is this guy a loose canon from se support, or have they actually tried blocking "you" out..?

Are you saying that SE have blocked access to the Roms, so that SE devs(the guys who work on SE roms) can try and crack their own Roms?

I think what he meant is that they've locked down the bootloader so that only the SE devs can work on it. They're not interested in letting the community do any work on it.

That's what I understood from the OP as well.
I'd be fine with that stance if SE actually supported their product with new development, but they don't seem to have much interest in doing so, if the 6-month wait for part of 2.1 and no official plan for 2.2 is any indication.
If they're not willing to support their products, then they should allow the community to do it.

SE are thinking in business terms. X10 is not bad in terms of hardware. So to sell X11 or whatever they come up with, they'll probably advertise as Froyo device to grab people.

That's fine in the short-term, but their stunting their long-term growth (which is what they should be looking at... especially after stating they want to be the #1 Android manufacturer) by alienating their current users. If they don't support their products, people won't come back to when replacement time comes. This goes on for long enough, and word spreads so new customers shy away from their products due to poor reputation.
Just ask GM how well this philosophy works on the long-term.

I agree, it goes against everything Android should be about. Android is supposed to be open and an interesting place for us hackers. That was partof the idea when it was started; to be more open than iOS and Symbian.
But SE also has the right to keep it locked down the way they do. They're not interested in either the open source movement or even Google. They're interested in making money and for that they picked Android since it's the best OS they can use. And if you're only after selling phones then having the community mess around with the phone isn't an advantage.
The fact that we can't do what we please with the phone sucks but SE has all the right in the world to do so. It's something I knew when I bought it, if I wanted a phone I could hack the software in I would've gotten myself an HTC phone or the Nexus One.
I'm completely satisfied with my phone, it works great for that. Anything else like an open bootloader or custom ROMs are just bonuses.
That's true, even though I don't like to admit it...

yes was aware of every aspect of the phone, and while i trust SE to have good devs on it, and im sure it will be just fine, it already is really.
but to actually pay dev's for "locking"(yeah i know, for all you spell checkers its not locked in that sense) an os that promotes it self by beeing free and open, i mean seriously, thats just.. yeah..
but love the phone...

SE's totally being Samsung with the whole support/update issue..
most ppl say oh don't get a samsung phone cuz in 2 mth, they are just gonna come out with a better phone than yours and stop supporting ur phone and it will be garbage..
and look at what SE's doing now..
actually.. ppl who went with sgs have it better now i guess.. at least they are getting timely updates. .and froyo.. i guess they are stepping up to be a better company (not by much.. but still)

Well !! Now Samsung has got there own problems !!
http://www.gsmarena.com/froyo_update_for_samsung_i9000_galaxy_s_delayed_until_october-news-1948.php
I am waiting for the devs !!
yeah but that's a FROYO update in october..
apparently SE's postponing out ECLAIR update to the end of october... u know what that means..
Perhaps asking SE devs for help could work. Not for inside info or anything but perhaps we could work out a deal. The market for custom ROM's is minimal it wouldn't impact their profit margins in any way, it's not like everyone would use the feature.
Here's my reasoning:
It's safe to assume that the devs over there have a similar mindset to our own, they're hackers. Perhaps we could work out a deal where we could get fastboot and the ability to flash unsigned stuff in exchange for something like voiding the warranty or perhaps even signing an NDA or the like.
It's optimistic but at this point it feels like we have nothing to lose. Appealing to their developers might just work, they're human after all.
Any thoughts?
I say we find one that is wiling to give us the test 2.1 rom or the info on how to crack the bootloader and pay him, create a thread like the bounty for the devs but for a dev of SE or a person with the 2.1 rom. I am sure a lot of people will pay $10-$20 and well get a few thousand quite fast. If i was an SE dev and someone offered me $2000-$3000 for the info on cracking the bootloader i would surely find a way to leak it anonymously or somthing like that.
Hint: check LinkedIn for former SE software developers
These are great ideas, guys! I don't know who to ask for help though...

I agree, HTC makes their devices lag for everyone and XDA Dev's make our devices smooth as butter. Now why would HTC want to do that?
HTC gives us all crappy battery life, HTC Dev's tweak to give us better battery. Why would HTC want to do that?
I guess only us geeks really care if a device runs as smooth as it is capable of and also offers good battery life. Does the regular everday user doesn't care about things like this?
And let's not get into the ridiculous skins that HTC has in it's hub. I guess most people want terrible skins that all look the same but in a different color.
All I have to say is thank you to our Dev's here who truly bring these devices to the next level which for whatever reason the manufacture's cannot.

You hit it right on the head! Most people don't care about 30 fps or a colorful skins. Most people just care that they can make calls, read email, check FB, Twitter, go online when needed. The skins and other stuff are just icing on the cake. Look at how bland IOS is but people still flock to it because whether it is pretty or not, it does what is is supposed to do. Now for our crowd that isn't enough. We want it push our phones to limit of it's capabilities. To squeeze every drop out of it. We want it to be as customizable as possible. But alas, we are the small minority, so HTC builds for the masses, who make up the biggest portion of their bottom line. To continue the car analogy, look at HTC like Mercedes or BMW. They produce a real nice car for the general public but for those who want something extra they go grab a AMG or M model which is like a phone after the devs here finish with it.
Who is the culprit here? Someone must have said something. Man up and apologize to him immediately. He's one of the best themers/ modders on this site and it will be so sad without him.

Sure, they are optional, but people start getting demanding and the money helps put up with the idiots. I think the enjoyment starts to go away.
I always donate to those whose work I consistently use. But then I also buy apps.
There's a reason why devs want to dev for iphone even though there are more android phones out there. Android users tend to be cheapskates who would rather steal an app than pay for it.
cant blame the community . this one is the same as others. i know someone who was working on bamf rezound in the beginning said hed stop cause of the "community" and he did . we're not THAT bad, but quitting cause of that is kinda lame- though i do understand in away .

And yes the second part of that statement tends to be true.

Tinkering with it is fun, but didn't miss it jumping from winmo to wp7. Used to build my own roms back then, but haven't had the time to really dive into what makes android tick.

i think me, like many others, are checking these forums frequently to see if any updates or news to the roms for HDX, especially since the last waves of rooting happening all the way to newest OTA update, however the heat has seemingly died off with the hopes of updates, and that glimmer of hope with bootloader unlock that we all waiting for. I understand as long as this doesn't happen we are still limited to the Amazon kernel.
im not a developer but a savvy user like many others so im in no position to measure the difficulty of creating updates for the device, however with the floodgate opened before i was really hoping for lots of new roms and updates to existing, coupled with powerful hardware at cheap prices, and what seems to be wide audience, but didnt seem to be the case.
does anyone think there's any hope left for this device? should we just jump on to Tegra K1 bandwagon soon?

Yeah, not only does it delay Amazon's ability to patch the hole, but it also helps the developers of the exploit earn the money they deserve. I'm just currently concerned after that argument in the fire phone thread they may not be releasing the exploit due to legal reasons, which is bothersome.

The argument in that thread about whether bootloader unlocking is legal in the US or not is not even touching on the real issue. First, bootloader unlocking IS legal. Second, what is not legal though is hacking a device put out by a company and then charging other people and making money off of your exploit. And even if it were legal, it is against XDA TOS for members to charge for things like ROMs, kernel, bootloader unlock, etc. We can donate sure, but specifically charging people for access is a no-no.
Even still, Id pay for it. I really want to see some real development going on for this tablet. The Thor and Appolo gapps ROMs are great, but it would be nice to have a true AOSP build working.

My HDX is still in the mail and I check here everyday. I hope the unlock sees the light of day before the HDX becomes obsolete eventually.
i dont have high hopes at this rate, this device target audience is opposite of most android users in the sense they're not the type to tinker with the software
its not like a Nexus device where most of the users going for it are expected with rooting and roms, i cant blame them, even the rooting process and safestraping rom slots is not common for android devices

I agree totally ,, and it also seems like this device is a favorite for parents to buy kids as convenient media babysitters and then the children think they need to come here and start modifying Bricking and crying ... It has been a bitter roller coaster ride I just want my unlock and fastboot stuff so I can unlock, archive the rest,and be on the next device. Uhg and I am sorry but this forum has given me fantasies such as hoping the next update will come with a choke Bart emoji on my keyboard;-p lmao only because of the face palming is starting to leave a mark ; (

Hi hashcode. Any info you can feed us would be appreciAted. I understand things are hush hush for numerous reasons but people here are starting to lose interest in our device and the longer we wait for a unlock the more talent we lose and, undoubtedly, potential donaters.
Your teasing and previous posts show u have some inside knowledge of the unlock. Any info would be great but specificAlly what is the snag the devs have run into? And I know it's rude to ask but how much longer are we lookin at for release?
I know u dint owe us anything but we thank u for ur support.
I'd really like to participate in today's Fire Sale (pun intended), but I'm not keen on getting a device that can't be unlocked. Decisions, decisions...
