WAAAY better then aHome and what aHome is SUPPOSE to be like.
Email from the DEV.
To all aHome users,
Thank you once again for purchasing our product.
As most of you may know, mAPPn has recently established a partnership with T-Mobile, a prominent telecommunications company based in the United States. As per our partnership with T-Mobile, we have now released FreshFace, a home-shell customization application based on aHome and designed exclusively for T-Mobile's new Google Phone, the MyTouch 3G.
As mentioned above, FreshFace is sponsored and co-published by T-Mobile and is free to download. As a result of this partnership and restructured application, the aHome Lite version (the free version of aHome) will no longer be published. The aHome paid edition, however, will be kept on the market and we will continue to develop more features for this application.
To further clarify this issue, we feel it is necessary to differentiate between both FreshFace and aHome. Firstly, FreshFace for T-Mobile has a better User Interface design than aHome, however aHome can work on both G1 as well as MyTouch 3G. In addition, it is important to note that some features that are available on aHome are not available on FreshFace for T-Mobile. We understand that this may be troublesome for T-Mobile's G1 users, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.
Let us reassure you once again, however, that the aHome full-version users need not worry about having to download the new Freshface, as the aHome full-version will still continue to be available within the Android Market as well as function normally on the new mobile devices.
Once again, we thank you for your patience and we shall continue updating aHome as promised. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely yours,
mAPPn Inc.

Uhh yea? I tried it it works. IT WORKS for the G1 too.

Cool Cool Thanks!

Was hoping it would be a little more visually appealing like Hero. Not necessarily as high tech... but some of the widgets and themes look pretty basic.
However, it was just released so I won't be too critical. It shows promise.

im using it now, i am very pleased with it. WAY better than aHome even though its probably of the same platform lol. it seems to be much more stable. I love all the widget options. the movie times widget is so great!

we neeeeed screeeenshots =D

Dang. Well it was on the market for the few hours. But now it seems as it has been pulled. Anyone (if it's within proper legalities of course) pull the apk before they took it down?

I'll try to get some when I get back if no one else already did....
But it looks just like a themed Android desktop with 5 screens. Im pretty sure most of the themes you can download from their repository are also available in the market.

did this just get removed from the market?

thanks alot, and i can't find it in the market either

anyone have the apk?

I'd post the APK, but since they took it down (for a reason I'm sure) I'm not sure how cool the mods would be with it here and I dont feel like gettin a ban today.

it should be fine cause its a free application.

Google found this link:

Need some screenshots.

How's the performance with this? Does it run "on top of" normal home or instead of like Launcher.apk/Rosie.apk?

Thanks for the info. Downloaded and installed.
Do you know what they mean by MT? I noticed it said that they had backported some MT from Eclair, but if its Multi Touch, I couldn't get it to do anything.

yeah, that will never work on the vogue. resistive touch screens can't do multitouch, they just average two points; many other reasons as well why we will never have multitouch on our devices.
I do love the new night mode in nav. buzz, i'm still undecided about. kinda cool though.

Buzz is pretty cool... just a toy though, I think it's more for kiddies
Is this 4.0 the one that was just updated in the marketplace? I'm guessing this version is for users outside of the US who cannot access it?

Yes - the link is for non-us international nav.

3d games on G Tab

I've done all the market hacks and tried all the tricks but im wondering why most of the actual 3d games i want to get to show off the muscle that this great little tegra 2 tablet can flex.
it seems like the games i want on here right now "pocket legend" and "rocket bunnies" don't show up in the market and I was looking forward to "dungeon defenders"
I think there needs to be a big push of actually finding a way to get the full market that my Nexus One gets...
This is mostly why i bought the tablet, and thanks to all the great devs here we've been able to get "almost" everything working (Thanks roebeet, et all)
maybe we can make a nice thread with some different market fingerprints and post market results? (or any other suggestions)
I am currently running the latest Vegantab beta4 fyi.

Well, as the guy who has tried all the market fingerprints and build.prop stuff and wrote the thread on the "full" market fix, I can tell you with some confidence that Pocket Legends and some of the other 3d games are a known issue - I have tried changing every build.prop setting to match that of my Nexus One (which finds those apps with no problem), and there are still a handful of 3d games that will not show up. I have also found that if you change too many of the settings in build.prop, you will eventually bootloop your G Tablet because Android itself gets confused about what it's running on.
You can find my notes on the subject in my posts on my thread in this forum on Full Market Fix.
In summary - the issue seems to be more than just using a different Market Fingerprint. That does not solve the problem, though it may make a few addition or a few less items show up. Right now, by most of my metrics, we have at least 95% of the items in Market showing up.
BTW, I have seen posts stating that the work around for Pocket Legends has been to download directly from their site, though I have not done so myself.
My understanding is that the CyanogenMod ROM for G Tablet does not require the Maket Fix and has no issues with missing items in Market because of the way the ROM image is built. I think the person to ask about this is bekriebel who built CyanogenMod for G Tablet - he can explain the concept of release-keys better than I can and how Market supports it out of the box on the CM ROM.
Unfortunately, it's a bit outside of my time availability right now to work much more on this, having already spent a day or more figuring out what I figured out. But please keep me in the loop if you figure anything else out!

I just thought it would be good to have a good constructive conversation about why else it might not be working... so the build.prop isnt the thing then.
its sad that 3d games are not showing up when this device was built for 3d gaming!

Pocket legends shows up on mine. got it installed...lemme try the other one..
EDIT: Strange they arent showing up anymore. when i was on Cyanogen 6.1 i Had them showing up. then again I didnt have the new market that looks like xbox live. strange...

this is what I'm refering to its so spotty. there is this great drawing app that i purchased that id love to use on the tab called "sketchbook mobile" but its not showing up for me either.
I know there have been lots of people working on it but it would be great if we could somehow compare market search results on some of them to find the best?
also if cyanogenmod has more working downloads is there anyway that the market from cyanogenmod can be rolled into Vegantab?

Dungeon Defenders is amazing its based on the unreal engine and really shows off this hardware.
If we are patient I am sure there will be many amazing games in the future for this CPU/chipset.
I had originally intended to only use the gtab until a good windows7 tab was released but after seeing Dungeon defenders on this system I seriously doubt any windows based tab will be able to come close to this tab for some time and I am sure the cost of a system like that will be much higher.
U need to check out this game to understand what I mean.

Agreed, DD plays perfectly on the gtab. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come once Honeycomb is in place and developers start making apps with tablets in mind.

Honeycomb and NC Future

Android Devs today posted a new highlights of Honeycomb (3.0) for Developers. I won't even pretend I know how to get started using these tools, but I thought I'd post them for you guys to take a look at:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-3.0-highlights.html
Imagine the Nook Color running this UI, it'd be amazing! Everything about this just really looks like it could make the NC way better than it is now, and it's already super cool.

By what I've played with in the emulator. its just as "heavy" as gingerbread or froyo. So performance wise you should not see a difference from what is in froyo

Oh well, if it stays at the same performance level but actually increases usability in a more tablet sense, I'll be happy.

Someday......

can't wait to some pulls keyboard i would love to see if works with NC Froyo.

I dumped most of it into Windows to sift through it...won't be able to tell you much till my screen protector cures on my NC. I want to see if we can't push some of the other .apks to NC...but I'll be happy with theming for now.

i couldn't find the honeycomb post here on the forum but

As cool as it is to think that they got it from here, the Android SDK site had it up before anyone else...still, they really love covering all things nouveau about the NC

Sorry, I see what you're talking about now lol. You meant the story about deeper_blue managing to make a zombie run of 3.0 on his NC. Must be nice to be blue

The latter was my point. Of course Google released the SDK.
Homer

I have been looking around on forums for development of Honeycomb on NC. I have looked through the NookDev site, the Cyanogen site, and here (XDA). Is there all ready a team, organization, or thread where people have begun work on developing Honeycomb for the NC?

Android Smart "Home" Phone from Archos

ARCHOS 3.5 Smart Home Phone ......... Link
I know it's not very mobile, but I thought some might be interested.

Not bad, but probably not available here :/ sadly.
Good finding man!

It's not available anywhere yet, I think it's supposed to be available sometime this month..........I think Archos is a French company, so You have a better chance than Me to get one.......

Only $150, not bad, as long as it has the market.

Not sure yet if it has the market......... I know a lot of their devices come with the appslib.

Looks interesting, hope it will have Google market access out of the box. Without it, it will not really be useful. Given that it is Archos and 2.2 Froyo, I doubt it. Will be hard to use things like "missed call to email" etc., without the market.
No google market icon in the slashgear video below. Touchscreen is FAR from perfect.

if its decently powerful, it might make a good PDA for someone.

Well that's... interesting. I'm pretty sure that since it has the market, it'll be hard to put down and use as a HOME phone.
Even though I see no need for it, others might. So I hope it succeeds.
