I'm just wondering when would be Sony be rolling out their last Gingerbread update which would be 2.3.7. I've seen new UI on their new smartphones at CES 2012, and they're running 2.3.7 which of course as for demo purposes only.
Anyone knows these information? The New UI seems to have a nice wallpaper and new icons, I know that's not ICS and I'm 100% sure with that. Lol.
Doubt they'll release anything gingerbread to older phones what with ics release being so close and all.
Better go for custom ROMs of 2.3.7 rather than official version
i'm still virgin on 2.3.4....haha
Why want 2.3.7 when you gonna be getting ICS \m/
2.3.7 gives nothing interesting compared to 2.3.4.
See this.

Agreed. Hate to bump, but had to point out: even if SE did give a 2.3.7 update (I don't think that's likely, but it is possible), there's no way in hell they'll include a UI overhaul before ICS.
The SE UI is independent of the underlying Android one (as in, the SE launcher, Music application etc.) and there's no way they'd complicate things by updating the SEUI once in 2.3.7, and then have another one changing the underlying Android a few months after. It would be way too confusing, also it would mean their new UI would have to be fully prepared and debugged for both 2.3.7 and ICS.
There's a reason you only saw a demonstration of that UI on a phone: it's not ready for release, and it won't be, because 2.3.7 is old news.
You get new ion or s n you will get that version stay with neo arc you will get ics

Over 450,000 downloads!
It's official, my first release on the Google Play Store.
Mirror Free (Google Play Store)
Mirror Free (Amazon Appstore)
Check out screenshots on the website, www.wckd-dev.com
Let me know what you guys think!
Update 7/25/2102: I released a new version today guys. I added a fullscreen mode and a bunch of custom frames. Enjoy!
Update 8/4/2012: I pushed out another new version today. I added Non-Mirror Mode and made a few tweaks to the layout of the menus. There is now the ability to choose themes and I also added a dedicated link to NexusTablets.net in my info dialog. Snapshots coming soon. Hope you like it!
Update 8/25/2012: Two new versions up on the market, free and paid. I added control settings for exposure and white balance. Made a whole slew of custom icons. Rearranged the GUI a little. Try it out on your other devices!
Update 9/9/2012: Tweaked the code to better handle resizing the camera preview. It should fill the screen on most if not all devices now. Please let me know if it's not. I also improved the way the app handles error and also added a button for reporting bugs in the developer info section. Unfortunately, these updates won't improve the experience any for Nexus7 users, but it should work on more devices now so give it a try!
Update 9/22/2012: Added snapshot mode to the paid version, Unlocked all frames for free version, Added Spanish and German language support, Improved bug reporting. Enjoy!
Update 10/14/2012: Increased supported languages. German, Spanish, French, Korean, and Japanese.

Update 8/17/2014: Added max brightness option, Double tap to pause, Extra widths for low-light frames
I haven't yet got my hands on a Nexus 10 to test this on yet, but I've added a landscape mode in the option which should correctly account for the placement of the camera on the Nexus 10. Let me know how it works out.
All new images for the app stores!
100,000 Downloads!! Pinch to zoom and pause mode added. Thanks for all the support guys!
It has been a while, but I've finally got an update worked up. New themes, flip mode, snapshot size adjuster, new screenshots for all locales, added Arabic translations, and a huge overhaul on the codebase. A version with ads has also been added with the premium features activated. Thanks!
Wow, almost a year since the last update. I have been pretty busy, but just pushed a new version to the store. I added a max brightness option, double tap to pause screen, and a couple more widths for the low-light frames. Also, 450,000 downloads to date! I've put my code up on github in case anyone is interested. Enjoy!

Has anyone tried it already? The changelog on the miui site says that battery performance was increased by 10%.. with @greatslon's tweaks it should be a beast (depending on how bad the battery performance was before)
Also, don't hate me for asking - anything about the sony camera that was ported to also work with MIUI (posted the link in your other miui thread)?
in his miui v6 sony camera was already included, did you try it before asking?
so i think it will be in his v7 too.. or maybe i didn't understand correctly what you meant??

I'm talking about this http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/guide-how-to-port-featured-sony-camera-t3169253
However, I didn't try v6, but this hack came out at the beginning of August.. not sure if we are talking about the same thing.
But if you guys who tried v6 were happy with the cam, I see no need with using what I posted :highfive:
I am running the v6 and yes, the full sony camera was included.
Battery life is phenomenal so I expect it to be even better on v7.
Will be installing this soon
can't download it from that website.. can someone mirror it please??
edit: seems i can download it now using chrome and desktop mode..

can i flash this from a lollipop rom, or do I need to downgrade first?
Please @charliebigpot
That language has this rom?
Thanks.
@Buns27
It is possible flash from lollipop but maybe bad installation because base rom is 4.4,4. Better downgrade to compilation . 77 (kitkat).
Enviado desde mi X80h(FB5M) mediante Tapatalk
in that case... what's the easiest way to downgrade?
Also, I thought MIUI7 came with lollipop by default.. are there plans to update this rom to 5.x in the near future? If so I may just wait for that.
Downgrade to kitkat with flahtool then root and dual recovery. Flash Miui and make backup. If you use again lollipop Flash any prerooted lollipop rom and make backup too.
Lollipop based miui not released yet. So we wouldnt have it near future

What i did coming from stock LP to get this rom to work was very easy: flashed a kk pre-rooted fw (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3012378 in particular " D5803_23.0.1.A.5.77_Generic_DE-Root-XZDR2.8.1-SuperSU-signed.zip") and then immediately later flashed this miui and everything seems to be working fine
About lollipop base, in miui, android base doesn't really matters.. ui is completely rewritten so you won't notice any differences! Experienced this from jb to kk to lp etc.. no visible differences at all
Plus, kk for this phone has even better battery they say so why you should be so eagerly waiting for lp base?

Sooo.. first impressions about the rom?
I gave this rom a spin on a locked bootloader. First thing a saw was lots of errors, processes not starting properly. Second was that I can't access the network SIM card that is. I am not sure I installed it the right way though. I flashed a prerooted 4.4.4 rom then the miui v7 after that, wiped dalvik and cache.
how is battery life compared to stock rom
would you please share some screenshots about battery life

well.. i come from a mi3 with native miui and even on the mi3 i didn't use miui but aosp based roms so you can imagine what i think of miui.. [emoji14] too heavy for me, and not having full xposed support was a too big problem for me. also, on original miui it took ages to fix even more simple bugs, and weekly changelogs were always very disappointing, with ridiculous changes and not considering at all important bugs..
but indeed miui has some very nice features (apps permissions and data control for apps for example).
actually i flashed this just for the sake of testing
I've just flashed this but have to say the rom seems stable and didn't find any big phone specific bugs so far. plus it has sony camera and audio enchantments so seems pretty promising (and full drm support too it seems).
but nevertheless think will go back to stock soon for the same reasons i abandoned miui in the mi3 (too heavy, no full gravity box etc )
ps. of course stock is pretty heavy as well, but with my debloated version i feel it pretty good. plus can't use any custom roms with this phone because of bad camera so.. right now i can just choose the smaller devil

Since it's a different system I would have wiped everything and do a factory reset. (Just make a backup before!)
Ive trawled the internet and i cant find a page that shows me the actual difference between the two versions of Androi so i dont know whether it is worth upgrading.
Can someone post them for me
Look harder, there are plenty of reviews. Main points:
- different edge screen
- the new doze mode
- the new apps standby mode
- better ram management
- new and improved per app permissions
- some changes to the dnd/silent modes (you can automatically switch to silent while you have a meeting in your calendar)
- design changes in the notification area
And there are others. So yes, it definitely worth upgrading

Hey , did anyone install Android 12 (beta) for OnePlus Nord 2 given from "Oxygen Updater" apk ? It can be download full zip package and kudos for that the rollback Android 11 zip package (A19 vs) only for Indian version .
Name is OOS12 Open Beta 1 , not suitable for Pac-Man Edition .
Nope. I have the EU version Nord 2 and so I'm not going to mess with it. But I would have downloaded it in a hearbeat had they released it for the EU model.
Ok , me as well .
But here are some features we can expect :
OOS12 Open Beta 1 changelog (Nord 2)
System
Newly added Smart Battery Engine, a feature that prolongs battery life based on smart algorithms and biomimetic self-restoration technology
Optimized AI System Booster to 2.1 for your system to run smoothly even when the load is high
Optimized desktop icons with improved textures, by using a design inspired by brand-new materials and uniting lights and layers
Optimized Extra HD, a feature that can significantly enhance image and video resolutions
Dark mode
Dark mode now supports three adjustable levels, bringing a more personalized and comfortable user experience
Shelf
New additional style options for Cards, making data contents more visual and easier to read
Newly added access to OnePlus Scout in Shelf, allowing you to search multiple contents on your phone, including Apps, Settings, Media Data, etc
Newly added OnePlus Watch Card in Shelf, to easily glance at your health status
Work-Life Balance
Work-Life Balance feature is now available to all users, allowing you to effortlessly switch between Work and Life mode via quick settings
WLB 2.0 now supports automatic Work/Life mode switching, based on specific locations, Wi-Fi network, and time, also bringing customized App notification profiles according to the personalization
Gallery
Gallery now allows you to switch between different layouts with a two-finger pinch gesture, intelligently recognizing the best-quality pictures, and cropping the thumbnail based on the content, making the gallery layout more pleasing
Canvas AOD
Canvas AOD brings you new diverse styles of lines and colors, for a more personalized lock screen experience with inspiring visuals
Optimized software algorithm and improved face recognition to better identify the features and skin color of different figures
Games
Newly added the HyperBoost end-to-end frame rate stabilizer
There are also known issues in this build, which we have reproduced below for your convenience:
You might be unable to use Face Unlock in the dark after turning on Brighten screen in dim light through Settings.
Fortnite will crash when playing the game.
Additionally, OnePlus warns that "some features of the Pac-Man edition may disappear after upgrading this build", so you shouldn't install this beta if you own a Pac-Man edition Nord 2.
Although you may be hyped by OxygenOS 12 now being available for your device, do remember that this is beta software (as proven by known issues list) and that as such, you accept any risks by installing this update. Furthermore, you're expected to report bugs to OnePlus directly via community app. Do also mind that switching back to stable OxygenOS 11 at any point will require a full data wipe, so don't get excited and jump into OB1 without considering all its pros and cons.
The Nord 2 was released only in EU & India. Note that there's no link for EU yet. If you don't want to wait, you can crossflash to India from the app itself (just select the "India" device). However, we advise patience. We will update this article if OnePlus posts links for EU.
So another piece of **** software upgrade with general Android 12 additions. What a huge disappointment. They probably have the Indian version first because they've hired 1 Indian to make it compatible. As soon as I get a quiet moment, I'll probably custom ROM it and swap it out for a different brand before I install the beta garbage.
"There are also known issues in this build, which we have reproduced below for your convenience", For our convenience... great laughs were had.
Does anybody here have any hope at all for this phone in the coming future? Especially because the Nord 3 is already spotted **shakes my head**
