I just read a blog from the Android and Me widget, that said 2.0 was spotted. Have any of the ROM devs seen or heard anything about 2.0?
http://androidandme.com/2009/10/news/android-about-to-get-a-lot-sweeter/
article is here along with a video from dan morrill of a giant eclair being unboxed at google
I'd imagine if anyone had their hands on anything from 2.0 you'd already know about it
Devs already have the dump for 2.0 from the Sholes...
!!!
w00t
Giant eclair goodies are coming to the 'droid!
Anyone know what Eclair's bringing to the table?
A friend that works for google here where I live.. says its called "Zoom" which is what we know of as Eclair or Android 2.0
He has been using it on his G1 as an everyday ROM.. so with that said we can feel safe that it should work on our G1 nicely.
He won't let me try it out so I can't check it out myself..
From what I understand 2.0 is going to have a different UI and multitouch among other features. Also its good to note that I don't believe the dump we have from the sholes has the full 2.0 just yet. It is coming just not yet.

yeah it seems that the upcoming HTC Dragon is going to be known as the Zoom 2 or something and will be running Android 2.0. as of right now there's not much else known. so if eclair's 2.0, flan would be 3.0 or 2.5 right?
Eclair is 1.7 not 2.0

evidence is a good thing to have when your statement contradicts what everyone else is saying.
Eclair is no more Android 2.0 than Donut was Android 2.0.
However, neither is it 1.7.
Android versions are not given version numbers until //AFTER// release, folks!

I've looked and looked and looked so don't blast me for asking this question, where is the download for JacHero 2.6.3. Can't find it anywhere. Read at many websites that it's the smoothest, fastest Hero Build so far....

Yeah i wouldn't believe that website. Hero improves with every update. I see that Jac didn't keep 2.6.3 but he does have 2.7.X so you may want to try that. But if you're looking for good hero builds they're all running pretty smooth. I've tried JAC 2.1 (hasn't updated in a while but it's still good) Drizzy v1.5.5/blurV1 (this what I'm using now and both are running great) MoCaDo (I ran this before drizzy v1.5.5 and It ran pretty smooth too) Again don't go based on what everyone else says.. try the rom's for yourself. You'll be amazed.
Well if you still want it here it is.

(took me 3 minutes to find)
MoDaCo 1.5.1 is very smooth, I have *never* had rosie freeze for a couple of seconds like it does on other ROMs. The website you got the information from is clearly out of date.

My Barebone on Froyo works like magic. And since 2.3 has even better 3D performance, I think it'll work better on the x1 once it has proper drivers and stuff.

Android 2.3 Gingerbread's source code now available
Just saw another thread and I was curious as to why people are drooling about gingerbread rom. What is this rom? What is so special about it compared to Cog or Perc?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Right now we are using 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs. The ROMs u mentioned above are modifications of 2.2 ROM (custom ROMs made out of 2.2 android version).
Gingerbread is the next version of android (2.3). Very soon u will see all (atleast most) of the custom ROMs here getting ported to 2.3 android base.

Am I correct that there is no guarantee this new android will be faster? Or will it have a new interface?
Here's why: http://www.phonearena.com/news/Android-2.3-Gingerbread-new-features_id15199
Specifically for me, the improved task manager with better save state.

Interface, as in home screens and related, can always be changed with themes and home apps.
The base versions are incremented/updated when there are some changes done to the underlying mechanisms. It would be best to check online for the android 2.3 change log that would tell you all the additions/updates/modifications done to 2.3.
Check out this link for technical changelog:

Hey everybody, i have a quick question. I have rooted my HTC SPRINT HERO (CMDA) and I'm looking for a stable 2.2 (Froyo) ROM so that i can flash. Anyone have any recommendations?
Looking for a Sense base, or AOSP?
I prefer AOSP to CM but the CM7 tht aosp made is the best rom ive tried thr were alot of issues bot all of them are fixed

why not just try Ginger bread?

See above or the 31DEC release of it that was done by CM. I think it was the last 6.2 entry of the Froyo releases. Although, rumor has it that they picked up on the Froyo nightlys again. Might want to check that out too.
Come check out the latest Gingerbread when you get the chance. It's making great progress!!
