Card view from palm pre

Itching thumb from the market gives you the card view from the palm pre, also includes three options for transitions. Runs well but its still in beta so more features to come. Totally would post pics but noob rules... check it out!

Lol trust me, I know. I work for sprint and I never sell palm phones, they're junk. Only reason I posted this is because someone wanted the card view ported over, this its a quick fix I guess.

Lol webOS is much more polished and stable plus user friendly than any other mobile os ive used. Its a shame they havent given it a hummingbird cpu.
Plus the cards aspect is genius fr multitasking

Imb a big android fan but I gotta admit that new web os 2.0 looks like a real visually appealing ui. Too bad with android, wp7, ios, and soon meego, palm will not be able to compete.. I think I might check out this card thingy and see how it looks thanks for sharing!

I'm using this on my epic and all I get is force closes all day that only get out of a loop when my keyboard is closed.

Seems like the app runs fine until the keyboard is opened, which like you mentioned, causes an fc loop.

Radio shack guy told me...

That our phone is not even comparable to even the iPhone 4.
He had a galaxy s 2 epic touch and says its not as good as that either. I asked him why didn't he buy an iPhone since he liked it so much and he said that its because of "faster wifi speeds from sprint"
Yes, those words exactly.
I showed him my nexus, and he said that screen is not as good as the retnia display. We compared pictures and it made the iPhone look washed out. But he never changed his opinion because he said apple makes the best phones ever.
I partly agree, needless to say. I'm buying the galaxy nexus with an iPad. Or a iPhone and a kindle fire. ( for face time of course, can't do it on my main rig.. I run Linux gnu)

I don't know or care. It does not even matter for what he stated. Poking fun at iPhone GSM users by saying how is your 4g service is just dumb.

On the subject of fanboyism... i know someone who thinks apple is soo great he was willing to buy a iPhone 3G cause he thinks its better (Mainly cause he claims lcd is far higher quality than amoled). Wouldn't even consider a 3GS or a 4 because they are too expensive.. SO yea cheapo fanboy.
To make things worse he is judging android based on a old samsung phone that was end of life when he bought it and was stuck at like eclair (was forced to root it out of box just to make it do anything half decent). He wouldn't even consider a Nexus S with Super LCD (i9023) because it was too expensive.
To simplify things.... you can't win a war with a fanboy you are just hitting your head on a brick wall.

Windows phone 7 ROM's

So can anyone enlight me with what's the point of having a custom ROM in a Windows Phone 7 platform?
Some of the features I've seen under the development section adds multi language support, xap installs(not sure what this is), but I don't really see any major improvements.
Am I missing something here?

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

I apologize, my mistake. Custom roms now give the user a different look and the ability to sideload apps. Access to file system is also moving along nicely with unlocked roms. There are many advantages allowing for more customization of WP7.

I would also like to know. My buddy had his hd2 replaced w a hd7 and he wants to sell it. Im considering buying it and it would be my first wp7 device.
I want to veer away from android for ****z n giggles, but wanna make sure I'm not blowing money for no reason. I love custom roms, so please, what's the advantage, are there special apps that benefit from root access? Are there other devices that get more dev support? Or is the hd7 a good all around device? I'd be paying like 150 for my buddy's refurb which he didn't even take out of the box yet. Can't be that bad of a deal right?

If it's in great condition, 150 would seem fair, this device is getting more and more support as time goes on. Gen 2 devices are just starting to come out, so it is not really outdated yet.

I know most of you coming from the Vivid will hate me for saying this but i will go to the HTC M7 as my next phone. I got to love sense, if you dont, no need to be staying with HTC, but i need my fix of sense

Well... I'm really happy with my Vivid. GLAD I DIDN'T GO TO THE ONE X! And as much as I'd love to stay with HTC (still have a G1) their newest phones are a disappointment. The One series was a huge disappointment. So many hardware defects it really made me lose faith in them. I think my next is going to be a an S4 or I might buy a used SII, switch back and forth and ride it out until I'm eligible for an upgrade and see what's out then.

Gonna see what's available after mwc in February...if nothing interests me ill probably wait for the sgs4...but I've heard rumors that it might not have android but Samsung's own firmware instead...if that's the case...idk lol
Only time will tell...as of now nothing is really catching my eye :/ one x+ looks nice...bit you can't even get diff yet...AMD nexus 4 just doesn't have enough storage for me...I need at least 32gb so I can have music and a couple roms handy (about a 1-2gb worth of Roms)

I love the new sony devices. I had an xperia x10 before this...i will be looking towards something in the xperia line when the vivid dies

Nexus 4... Oh wait already have one!
This phone rocks, if you don't need the extra storage I'd recommend it to everyone... Of course there is the issue that it's really not for sale right now... Ugh. Supposedly February they are coming back in stock, we'll see I guess.
Anyway the device is epic. Pure android, no bloatware, screen is gorgeous, speed is ridiculously fast, put it this way you may not think you have lag on your vivid, until you play with this thing. It's literally iphone smooth. No lte? No problem! Make sure to copy your apn from your vivid and you'll get fast stable hspa+ that you'll never notice a difference from lte on stock. Camera is almost on the same level, maybe a tad bit weaker, but no shutter lag and the 4.2 camera app is very very nice. Build quality is solid, right on par with the vivid, feels sturdy and looks great.
The only issue is 4.2 needs patching. Battery life out of the box is actually worse than the vivid. This is due to the location service being borked on 4.2. Go into maps, Uncheck "report from this device" under location settings and battery life is much better than the vivid, however you don't get the most out of google now with it shut off. It won't show places of interest near you with the option shut off but until google patches it its the best only option.
So to summarize, once google patches 4.2 it'll be perfect. If you can deal with the wait and don't need the storage, I fully recommend it's awesome!

I guess I should mention this about the nexus 4. The screen size is a tad too large. The vivids screen size is perfect honestly, large enough to watch videos, small enough to use one handed. The nexus 4 is a tad too large for a good one handed experience. And the worst part? It's 4.7 inch screen will be considered small by the end of the year.
HTCs new droid dna design is basically going to be the reference design for HTCs next flagships and at 5 inches it's too big, I've played with one too so I can attest to that. The galaxy s4 is also rumored to be 5 inches, and the note 3 is rumored to be a whopping 6.3 inches!
When does it stop? Ergonomics are just going to hell here! I remember when htc released the Evo, my Samsung eternity fit in its entirety inside it's screen and I thought there's no way I'd want a phone that big. I was wrong there, 4.3 to 4.5 is actually the best sizes available hands down. But now screen sizes have just gone haywire! Before you know it people are going to be carrying 22 inch monitors with cell radios!
What's really frustrating is they still make smaller screen sizes but they all blow. Typically feature low resolution screens, dated hardware, and extremely outdated versions of android such as froyo or gingerbread with no plans whatsoever for android updates. Samsung releases about 50 of these Galaxy Rubbish phones a year!

If i would like to get the best: htc one

Nexus 4? You're trying to tell me that is hard for you to pick between the super sexy, super sleek, top of the line, aluminum body, specs to die for from the HTC one and the boring design, fragile glass back, boring UI, made by LG nexus 4? Yea, no contest.

I would go for the HTC One
There are several reasons why I would get the One over the Nexus 4. The main reason is, that I've always been a fan of HTC phones and build quality. I've also not been a fan of LG. I currently have a One XL and it is awesome. The N4 is better for developers but its going to be more and more behind as far as specs go.
I think for other people the main deciding factor should be interface. With my One X I can choose Sense roms and AOSP roms. With the N4 you're pretty much stuck with AOSP roms.

A friendly advice is post this thread on the General section http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=256
Obviously you're posting on the HTC One forum. Why would an aspiring owner of HTC One let his dream device down over any other device?
*Except for the trolls here who got no life and just come in the HTC One section just to say how they dislike the device*

This phone does seem amazing but again it's going to be crippled by delays in updates so that's why I picked the nexus. The 2gb ram, 720p screen and quad core is more than enough, for me at least

I think everyone knows that nothing beats nexus devices when updates are to be compared. But there are some people like myself who rather prefer usability and unique features than updates. I myself am satisfied already with ICS. The sole reason why I decided to get this and ditch my phone is that my phone doesn't officially support ICS and unless I see very significant changes I won't upgrade.

I have a nexus 4 and really want the HTC One. Only reason I'd miss the nexus is the updates.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

One smashes n4. Aside from that, as stated before, with HTC device you can run sense ROMs or AOSP ROMs. More choice. Also, Google makes a point to make sure nexus devices are not top-spec, officially. They do this cuz it's a development device. What good is it to develop on a device that only 10% android users have the specs to support? Also, I checked out n4 cuz all reviews said it felt Luke a million bucks in your hand. I thought, it felt like junk, personally.
From my Evo LTE, yup.

M7 no contest. I'd take a Note II, GS3, Lumia 920, or HTC HOX+ before I went back to the N4.
Monetarily the N4 is great for the no-contract price. In no other way would I pick the N4 as my phone.
