I think it's a West Coast thing.josephdebono said:What's that? Never seen anything like that.
Its-Its are awesome, though. The description of what it is is on the bottom of the wrapper in the pic.

ZZMitch said:Gaf, what do you think they will call the next software update after gingerbread?
I have been thinking about it... hot chocolate maybe? Hazelnut? I dunno :lol
Kinitari said:I read a rumour somewhere that Google is planning to remove custom manufacturer UI's with Gingerbread - does anyone know how valid this is? To me it makes sense, as their biggest development hurdle right now is fragmentation, removing custom UI's could make it easier for Google to develop updates for pretty much all the phones.
Dommel said:They're not planning to remove custom UI's but to improve the default UI so that there would be less need for a 3rd party to develop their own.
Pimpwerx said:Swype is awesome. I only use it in portrait mode though, and with two hands. The Evo screen is big enough, I can't do it single-handedly. It's awesome though. I wish I could set it as default for portrait and use the standard Sense keyboard in landscape mode. PEACE
ChackanKun said:Any opinions on the Samsung Galaxy Spica I5700? I've read really good reviews but would like to see a user review. Looks like a good phone to enter the Android world
ChackanKun said:Nothing?

They would then be invalidating several dozen other home replacement apps on the marketplace and backtracking on one of the intents of making Android open source in the first place. I don't see it happening.Kinitari said:I read a rumour somewhere that Google is planning to remove custom manufacturer UI's with Gingerbread - does anyone know how valid this is?

Driving home recently and went through parts of the country where mobile reception does not exist, Google Maps wasn't so handy then!

How are you guys able to get it work so well ? For whatever reason. It doesn't work for me at all.The Friendly Monster said:Swype is so good. Showed it to work mates in the pub and they were absolutely blown away.

skybaby said:Not sure it's been posted before but mozilla has been doing nightly builds of Fennec: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mobile-trunk/
There's even a Windows version, so try it to look for changes before installing! I'm currently rocking the build from a couple days ago and it's much better than the original one from April.

Either that or give us the option to disable the manufacturer stuff and go full on with the Android OS.Kinitari said:I read a rumour somewhere that Google is planning to remove custom manufacturer UI's with Gingerbread - does anyone know how valid this is?

Mustaphadamus said:question,
I went to a restaurant and they had a sticker with a boardcode looking thing on it for you to scan. It said "find us in your favorites" with google in big words on the stick as well. What app on the phone are you supposed to scan the barecode with and how does this work exactly?

Trying the Handcent one but I can't deactivate the predictive text :S
dark10x said:Has Froyo improved general performance on powerful devices?
I used 2.1 over the weekend on an overclocked Droid and I've used a Nexus One and both of them seem to struggle with smooth scrolling. Simply flicking through home screen pages, scrolling along webpages or maps, or doing any other OS tasks is a choppy experience.
It looks nice and I like the functionality, but the high refresh rate of the iPhone makes it feel so much snappier.
Does Froyo actually improve such performance on such devices? Are there any Android phones capable of proper 60 fps scrolling? Phones like Nexus One seem quite powerful (more so than the iPhone 3GS, for instance), but the OS appears to be holding it back.
Lord save us.ChackanKun said:Forget the T9 request, what I want is this:

Hilbert said:Does anyone have a recommendation for a good widget for my text messages? I love the handcent UI and would love for one of my screens to be completely dedicated to just text messages.
junkster said:Yes it has. Not by a country mile, but a noticeable improvement.
Home screen still isn't as snappy. But Launcher Pro (free on the Market) fixes this and makes home screens and the app list very smooth and fast.
I recommend everyone with an Android phone get Launcher Pro. It's that good.

There is no ChompSMS donate version. Just an option in-program to donate via paypal and remove ads. Otherwise all functionality is the same.Gabyskra said:Some people like ChompSMS donate version for its widget...

Muerte_X said:Do you have Sense UI? It has the phone keypad style keyboard built into it, with or without predictive text.
If not, search around android forums or XDA for the HTC_IME. It's a version ported to non SenseUI android phones.
