Looks nice. Would like to see how those panels function. Hopefully they make a better effort to maximize useable screen space.

The layout looks like it's only good for Google and their advertising revenue.

I think it looks cute.

Windows 7 Google Phone Market - Coming Soon!
/puke

I'd like a market that doesn't forget my downloads and break my links. Other than that, they can make it look like 1998 Geocities page for all I care.

What's up with all the hating on the new design? That's just the page that opens up the first time! Who knows what the rest of the market is like and how they sort and list their apps. I'm just saying don't be so quick to judge it.

I'd like a market where you can get rid of the god damn pay apps that are utterly useless or don't use or ever plan to use again.
For instance.. OpenHome.. It's old crap and no one uses it anymore yet it contributes to "My Apps" clutter. I have a decent collection of pay crap I simply don't use, and don't ever intend to use again.. In 2 years our "My Apps" list is going to be stupidly long and a burden. Google needs a "Delete from account" option.

Honestly I think its because it looks like a winpho7 home screen and I'm sure I speak for many around here when I say.....winpho7 looks like sh!t
If its still the same underneath and I can have my black market.....idc what they do.

This...and maybe let us hide apps from the front page that we aren't interested in (I'm looking at you taking tom cat every time I open the market) and filter out ones we already have installed.

Go to hell google. Wait.. I love android. Carry on.

Well, you know first impressions mean everything. Oh, and I have to base it on that cause that's all I've seen this far. I am not judging it cause there's not enough to judge. Just giving my first impression.

It's funny, because there are a lot of people that think WinPhone7 looks great (I being among them) but it is certainly a polarizing design. There are many people that you do, indeed, speak for. Nobody seems to be in the middle, that's for sure. You love it or you hate it.

Port HTC HD Stock tab to Diamond

Hi,
Can someone port the STock tab to Diamond? Is it possible?
Doesn't this belong under "Diamond ROM Development"? Good idea, though, although I don't think it's possible... yet anyway
If someone creates a similar tab in functionality, then it belongs here, not in ROM development.
sounds good, hope someone can do it
Sounds good, but if you're from US, you're going to just an arrow going down, like this:

So just put that image as a tab, and you're all set...

Port HD stock tab to Diamond
This is not the place to discuss stock market ....
So can someone port stock tab to Diamond? or is there any resource to link to this request?
It would be a great thing to view my portfolio on this thing without having to log into E*Trade in Opera.
And to add to the stock discussion...stocks are just on sale right now...so calm down!

Seriously, what are you talking about? You obviously have no clue in history, especially, in this case, what the Great Depression (which originated in the USA) did to Europe.
There's nothing wrong with stating the obvious truth. If I made you uncomfortable because you choose to close your eyes instead of seeing the truth, well that's your problem.
This is not a forum for political comments.
BUT since you people started, it is AT LEAST lame to believe that US is what balances the planet. US can very well be what distracts the balance from time to time.

Yes, Hitler rose to power ONLY because of the Depression...
Of course he didn't. Massive oversimplification. It may have helped, but certainly wasn't the only, or probably even the main reason.
Also, yes the US has a massive bearing on the world at the moment, but China and Japan have grown in power massively recently, and with the world not in a state of post-War rebuilding, the situation is totally different.
I too would like a stock tab by the way.
OK everyone settle down. Let's focus. We all want this stock tab.
Currently, I'm writing my own local html files with links to http://stockcharts.com/avantgo/ charts.
I have been using this work-around for almost three years now and I'm really quite sick of it. I myself am willing to contribute monetarily towards porting this stock tab.
Is there no slight possibility HTC will bring it to the Diamond and Raphael in a subsequent ROM release?
sure there is
I expect the sliding dialer too

1 thing I learned from that link...
If about a few hundred of us get together and report a specific app malicious it gets auto removed haha
LOL
What is the world coming to...?
Airpush is nothing but adware in my opinion. Infecting your system with advertsements in places they shouldnt be.
Also if people that make malicious software start implementing airpushs code to access the notification bar.... Thatd really be frustrating.
I for one would NEVER download an app that uses this method to advertise. The developers deserve to make money, but not by annoying the hell out of the consumer.

Open Platform is Open. Gonna have to deal with this stuff until Google is intelligent enough to publish Official, Enforced UI guidelines and start policing their marketplace better.
Unbelievable
I hate it when apps put something up there advertising their other apps, I will rage so hard if this pops up one day.
it's one thing to have ads within apps that run on their own, but to inject them into the notification/windowshade is beyond intrusive. no way in hell would I install anything that utilizes this
This is against the market rules.... report any app with this...
Google has already blocked/removed some apps doing this. Personally, I don't think its bad... have a full/clean screen for gaming, and I can just drop-down and clear without my screen being an ad....
o well, just report it.

Lol. No, it's not against the rules.
Google only removed the apps because of the number of people that reported them as MALICIOUS. That goes to show how little Google Polices their marketplace, though. They had absolutley no clue about this. It was just an overreaction on their part in those cases.
It's not against market rules, and it's not against the UI guidelines. Google needs to crack down. This would never happen in i.e. iOS or WP7 where they apps are actually checked before allowed to be posted to the marketplace. They'd get rejected in a new york setting.
And there is too much wrong with that. The notification bar is not for Ads. I don't even think Applications like Beejive/Trillian/etc. should be allowed to put their huge "Hi I'm running" things in the notification bar, either. It makes getting to the notifications too clunky esp with how much room these things take on a 4" screen...
^
The app that was removed, the developer wrote a very nice article stating that it violated policy and that is why his app was removed from the market, without any warning.
It is BS, I dont mind having ad during the game (like the flash ad in the browser).
But it is definitely a malware if there is ad popup from my desktop taskbar without opening anything

Looks cartoony but it u never know
I, for one like it and this was needed very badly since the current Android Market just looks plain ugly.
I agree, I like the look of it in the videos.
eewww It kind of looks a little WP7'ish. I agree the market needs to be updated but not like this.
I still find the current android market alot easier to navigate and alot better then the amazon app store
I think it would be better if they used the home screen from this new market and then just used the rest of the market as it's already designed.
Google should be careful though.
Android, at least for phones, DOES need a more "finished" and "refined" look, that is one of it's faults, but they can't force it.
What does this mean for CM7 users? Will a new gapps be coming out or will we get the market update OTA?

The market updater "app" comes with gapps so it has it.
So yeah, it will OTA.
APK provided in OP courtesy of Redneck_Trash.
I like it, seems to run smoother/faster on my Evo. I can see the Metro UI'ish layout, but I like it.
I think I will keep my themed market over the new market.

I hate to admit it, but the apps (or lack of quality ones) is where the market sucks.
iOS truly has that market (pun intended) cornered. Once jail broken, I'm close to enjoying my iPad as a daily driver.

i will agree with you that apples market is a bit better than androids but i also believe that it makes a difference when you have developers paying money to develop apps and with android you have a lot more ... open source. I believe another huge difference is that everyones iphones are the same all of our android devices are different it must be a little harder to code for that. BTW i am not a programmer just an aspiring network admin so i hate writing code
any who i like the new market the old themed markets Never seemed to look right or all that cool so this is nice that they refreshed it so much.
Installed and I like it better than the current market. Thanks for this

I agree, it just sucks. I got a smoking deal on an iPad or I would never know. My android tablet has so many fewer choices on tab specific apps. And the phone apps I see...no comparison. I really, really want android to catch up.

I honestly think it looks damn amazing

Fruit Cake Maker [90% there]

So Fruit Cake Maker is finally on the last stages of its creation. Either today or tomorrow you will be able to play with it. I cut the paid version out in favor of just an ad supported version, and i have laid a road map for updating it for the rest of next year.
So with the great news fresh in the air, i have commandeer this post once again to ask you guys for your help. You see, i can program, but i cant draw for shiznet.
So with all that said, if anyone would like to create an icon, for Fruit Cake Maker, i would really appreciate it, and will give you full credit!
the standard icon is 72x72 and png.
_________
btw:
once Fruit Cake Maker is out and about, i will begin work on an application to ease searching for new builds.
the goal of the app will be to back up your data. clear it! and cache. set the server to connect to, and launch the setup so you can create the fake account connect to moto and try to update.
if more people can test more often, we will be finding more builds like 2.3.5 or who knows, maybe even ics
Brilliant idea!! What about copyrights etc etc though? For example all the purchased apps that will be distributed? Or am I missing the point (probably am..)?
it dosnt touch cache or data, so none of the users personal data or apps will be included on the zip, the app will make.

Copyright infringement will apply to those who are actually bundling paid apps alongside the ROMs, it will not affect FCM as FCM is a means to make backups and helping others if they don't know how to upgrade to the latest ROMs.
It's the responsibility of the ROM owner to make sure that he/she isn't bundling paid apps with the ROM.
Brilliant idea I say. "p

Honestly, I don't want to be too harsh or anything but.. it just look like a cheap chinese Mp3 player of any kind I mean..
And by the way why physical + software home buttons wtf ?
But I thanked you anyway !
It shows the level of expectation for the phone. Such hype was reserved only for Apple products. Samsung must have done something right.
Well done, but I would have loved less bezel and the home button looks too much iPhone-ish.

Well, C4D isn't the best program to design in. I've moved on 3DS Max. About the home buttons: the homescreen picture is just an ICS picture i've downloaded on the internet.
