Well, it corresponds with the previously obtained "leaked" photos. It does some things I haven't seen any other roms do as of yet. But, I would assume all easily doable if your a developer and wanted to mess with people.
Than again if I wasn't except so much from it I'd think it was it. But since It's kind of disappointing in the first place I don't want to believe it. But, I would assume there are much more background upgrades and new features not shown there that it would make it exceptional and that much better.

I sure hope so.... I'm not digging the neon light blue though..... to me it seems kind of nauseating, I would of hoped they would of gone with more of the Honeycomb dark blue color.

The guy was almost stopping himself from doing certain things for fear he revealed more then he should have. It may be fake but it would take a lot of work to do so.
Also it looked like en early build but had the same radio as the update I got yesterday.
The nexus lwp didn't really work either it looked **** if I'm honest.
Google employee I think. Ebay my ass. Ha.

Nope, just the ICS launcher. I'm going to be following the Nexus S forums for a bit now hoping for a dump

I love the neon blue theme! Much better than the Gingerbread green IMO. But everyone has their own opinions

That is the ics 2.4 launcher app I think. It's on the market I believe. Definitely on xda that's where I got it from.

Oh ok. I was wondering why it look similar to touchwiz. I just thought samsung got a early build of ICS and already started working on an update....

I still lean more towards it being a custom rom someone conjured up. And even if it's not ICS; nor, do I wish it to be (Again the background changes would have to be intense for me to not feel dogged completely) I would love to get my hands on that "rom" and mess with it.
Just tell us it's fake already and let us play with the rom!

Cool features but CM like color scheme. Pull down notification looks cheap too.

The pop up menus with the blue ora look a lot like upwardspiral's theme chooser themes for CM7.

Has anyone noticed the Movie Studio icon? As far as I know this app is only available on Honeycomb at the moment. Two possibilities:
- It's real and the Movie Studio works on phones
- It's a custom ROM and there's just a useless icon for an app that doesn't exist
The first one seems more likely to me. Also, there's the panorama feature in the camera app, which was rumored before.

Custom ROM my ass. **** just got real!

Fake.. and ofc its the same as leaked pictures and 4chan.all from the same guy... this so called ice is using samsung and froyo icons..

Doesn't seem fake. IceAndFire ROM, for example, has the ICS launcher by Syndicate Apps.
This video shows a lock screen, a different app drawer, a different notification bar. Just like on my Honeycomb tab. Seems like real ICS.

Yeah motoblur up until that sucks. This actually looks decent and seems quick.
I still have a Droid X my kids use for watching videos and playing games and I had to do a bunch of stuff to get gingerbread on it. Once done, Gingerbread is a well polished machine by comparison to previous versions. It adds the LITTLE THINGS that iPhone users tend to enjoy. I liked it and give it a big thumbs up.
my motoblur work like that...but......and with live wallpaper??? still fast or like a cheat?

i got to say one thing tho. the dock was kind of motoblurs trade mark. its 3 little green white and blue icons, now gone...

I didnt post what you quoted so I cant speak for him but I will elaborate, slightly. I have gingerbread CM7 on the Captivate and there are several things I like about it.
First and formost, and this is petty, the screen does the "crt monitor" screen on/off effect animation thingy. Its superficial, but awesome. There are several other interface changes that are an improvement imo.
Secondly, native wifi internet calling via SIP. It still takes some setting up and know how but you only have to read to learn.
Of course there are "speed" improvement like always.
Theres a Download (manager) app.
Finally, security. You probably read about that already.

Gingerbread and Expectations? (Disscussion)

So what's everyone's expectations when the carpet rolls out? Also do you think Samsung will finally get a release done good this time? (or another froyo?)
Idk about everyone else but I love reading other people's opinions, So that's my partial reason of this thread. Feel free to have any and all Gingerbread discussion to take place here also.
CRT Animation?
New theme's?
New ROMs?
New kernels?
Better Android OS?
unknown possibility's?
All of the goodies Above?
P.S - Just because we have Gingerbread when its out, it doesn't mean we will finally get a CM7 port. same goes with MIUI and AOSP.
I expect it to make us feel worth the wait on a certain level if it takes advantage of hardware acceleration like we thought it could. It hurts that market research never makes the best hardware prevail, but this is the oldest thought in the computing book. I think it's nothing but what this phone was made for and we'll have a ton of fun with it. It hurts to be ahead of the curve sometimes or "It hurts to be this good."
I just want that damn crt animation lmao
I want to be more up to date with all the possible mod's being easier to port over.
I'm hoping for better overall battery life. Better stability, CRT animation, in depth battery use statistics, and better copy/paste.
I'm not much of a rom/kernal flasher, i just like to root and get rid of bloatware.
Having said that i'd love if we got a fully functional cyanogenmod just so we have better support going forward.
From what I've read I'm expecting an incremental improvement in performance and battery life over stock Froyo. From what I've seen on EE03, there are some minor improvements in the Sammy apps. I don't expect CRT animation out of the box since I think that's a Nexus thing, but I expect it to be an easy addon. I also expect a few bugs in the first release, followed by a clean-up release about a month later.
1. Sammiches
2. Sexual Favors
3. CRT Animation
4. Overscroll
That's all i like that's in Gingerbread..
I want the sexual favors. LOL. I just want some overscroll and some awesome custom kernels.

What others have said plus possibly support for FM radio (for real). Since it has been available in the leaks, but not too many people seems to be able to get it to work, I wonder if samsprint ironed out the kinks in it.
Or was this just something ACS added to Swiss Cheese?
Also looking forward to legitimate netflix and all the other fun goodies that come with GB.

FM radio on the leaks we've been playing with have been taken from other phones and added by the XDA chefs if I'm not mistaken. Nobody has actually made it work, which leads me to believe that it's disabled in hardware at the request of Sprint just like the TP2.

ICS 4.0 Thoughts?

Very impressed what what I saw..Whole slew of new great features.
Any thoughts?
Tons of new stuff...i like it. I can't wait till is ported to the Vibrant...the 4.0 ADK is already alive and available, so i guess that it shouldn't take long for CyanogenMOD team to update to 4.0...lol
Thoughts: CM8!!! Someone is gonna port it for
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Just watched the stream and here are my thoughts:
Ice Cream Sandwich looks like a crap. Personally it looks like a jumbled honeycomb and WP7 aka "Magazine Interface". Google had the chance to pick up the ball Apple dropped and make the design a little more inviting. From the the blue Tron glow of the dialer to the metro like interface of the people app (?) it's like 5 different themes jumbled into one.
Hardware wise, it gets a meh. I'm just excited to get the larger screen plus Super Amoled HD
Despite that, the features are amazing. I was particularly blown away by the instant voice, nfc sharing, and new photo features. Android has come along way.
Shame they didn't touch on ICS for tablets as this was the OS that ties phone and tablet together.
In another note, reading the Engadget comments, I'm particularity amused that most "comments" (apple fanboys) believe that this was the first time Android featured folders. HA! Take that Apple!
So because it has squares an swipes to side its metro ui???

I love it. Can't wait for a port. But not sure if any devs are still willing to work for the vibrant.

So there is no menu button anymore or the multitasking button will double as that? Also I wonder how ICS will be compatible with existing apps.

Face it, the Vibrant is DOA. Either be happy as it sits, or move on. I'm outtie.
I liked ICS and the phone. I just wish the phone had a better GPU, it has practically the same GPU in our current vibrant (power vr sgx 540).
The Super Amoled HD screen should be impressive, then again with that higher resolution a better GPU would have been nice!
If the phone comes to T-mobile or At&t soon, I will get it.
Also ICS is deffinately coming to Nexus S.

No luck there...I ditched my Vibrant for the amaze. Samsung build quality is **** in comparison. Hell, my N1 is built like a tank...plastic bezels are for cheap phones--why Sammy keeps using them blows my mind. I'd rather fight s-off/etc. with a well built device than deal with the gsII/ Prime's cheap build quality.
As for ICS, it's all a software gimmick. Skins really do make a difference. AOSP is for boring ****s that think bare-bones is attractive. If that were the case, I would've married a 12 y.o. girl.

I don't really care how Touchwiz, Sense, or any other manufacturer based UI looks like. But the thing is when they mess with the phone's software they tend to slow it down which makes AOSP better.

In the United States, phones are very cheap.
That's not the case in other countries, you can read about it here:
http://www.xda-developers.com/feature/outside-the-big-tech-scene/
Maybe in the US you can allow to upgrade your phone each year or even less, in other countries you usually stay with your phone for much longer.
So, I don't think the Vibrant will be forgotten so soon.
Even the G1 phone has some unofficial mods for Gingerbread and even Honeycomb.
So why would our phone be forgotten?

So, is there gonna be a Miui rom for the Nexus7?

Miui roms are awsome. And rumours or facts as to if/when a Miui rom will come forth?

Alright, I will be the forum troll that tells you that this belongs in Q/A .
The entire reason to get a nexus device is to experience pure aosp android, plus the awesome support that comes along with it. I personally would consider it blasphemy if a miui/twiz port was ever released for this device. Also, as there is no miui tab interface out there, a ported phone ROM would not look very good (low-rez icons, funky UI,etc.), not to mention being a pain in the neck to fully port.

Alright, alright, just calm down, I mostly meant it as a joke, anyways, and I didn't want to put a silly little smiley face there to show it. I personally think that a MIUI port would not scale very well to the N7 (feel free to prove me wrong as I have never used MIUI), and would not do this device a true service.

HTC One Android 4.2 Official Update Confirmed Once Again

Better true this time The wait has been too long.... Can't wait....
The HTC One Android 4.2 official update has once again been confirmed by the company without a specific release time frame being provided. Earlier this month we reported that HTC Russia had confirmed availability of Android 4.2.2 for HTC One in mid-June, but the update itself is yet to drop. Recently Three UK, one of the carrier partners across the pond that offers HTC’s latest flagship, recently replied to a customer’s query on Twitter revealing that HTC had “just pulled” the 4.2.2 release. This indicates that a June launch of this update was definitely on the cards, with Engadget reporting that HTC has confirmed to them that the update is indeed coming soon, but customers might have to wait a bit longer. HTC One ships with Android 4.1 pre-installed, whereas its main rival the Galaxy S4 ships with Android 4.2. Some features expected in the HTC One Android 4.2 official update have already been detailed, but the company itself hasn’t confirmed exactly what improvements this update will bring. Like everyone else, we’ll keep waiting patiently for this update, and will let you know as soon as it drops.... Read more at: http://www.ubergizmo.com/2013/06/htc-one-android-4-2-official-update/

Does it really matter? I mean, the M7 is already set up better than the S4 with its 4.2 config... I honestly don't think it needs anything at all in terms of added software features, just some finishing touches (and softkey related updates to everyone who is still waiting for it).

Yea, I suppose both of those are good things. Even though you can get to the wireless/wifi toggles one click from pull down menu... or one touch on a toggle bar from home screen. the home button menu could be good? not sure what other menus are needed...

The home Menu button are meant to remove and replace the 3 dot black bar.
Yes I want the black bar gone.
The pull down toggles

I don't have any of these issues... my home button brings up the apps drawer if I hit it in default screen, and brings up the search function if I hold it down... thanks to Nova launcher, which is free. It almost looks vanilla in my config except with black bars being transparent, and the app drawer half transparent, and nicer hand-picked icons with no text on homescreen
Just wish they release the goddamn kernel source. I swear someday I will leave my beloved HTC for the plastic, just for better developement, if this kind of delay persists.

people like you, all you do is want want want and nothing else. release the kernel source faster for better development? or for your selfish wants.
ever thought about others? them working for free just for your selfish needs.
why dont u do something good with the kernel source instead of throwing all the work to other people then leech on it like a damn parasite and moan when it's updated slower than other masterpieces
and then says stuff like "oh im gonna jump to plastic if my selfish need isnt fulfilled"

i think we deserve the kernel source asap don't you think? i payed premium price for this device running android (the most open source phone OS) so i could get all the benefits of open source policy
the fact that HTC always slacks on sources is gross

everybody pays a premium for gadgets. not just a phone alone.
and it's already performing currently, there's no need to rush things.
good things come to those who wait.
if everything u paid for deserves to be updated quickly because "it costs like a premium item" , then you're wrong.
it's like saying i paid a premium for my ac router, i deserve faster firmware updates to speed the damn thing up
and they have no obligations to comply with the open source license. only google does that.
nowadays with all the patent ****storms, nobody really cared about open source anymore. they want everything to themselves

hm yes i see your point but i don't see a reason why they delay things like kernel sources so long for.

HTC generally is pretty fast, sometimes a few weeks slower than samsung, sometimes a few weeks faster with updates. I installed the 4.2.2 update but immediately I noticed my bottom speaker started popping and the animation in the pull down menu was jittery and when opening the app drawer I first saw a grid of 4x2 icons before showing my 5x4 grid. These were just the bugs I noticed in the first minutes of installing. HTC were right in pulling that update. JB 4.2 itself doesn' t offer a lot either for phones. The one thing I really want from 4.2 is the fix for the msm_hsic_host suspend bug, but most people seem to be unaffected by this wakelock anyway.

With 4.2.2 on the ONE 2013 Flagship phone, everything AWESOME. As Samsung S4 come preloaded. Just that the smartphone battle has becoming more tough. At least HTC can speed up a little bit :fingers-crossed:
Most importantly for me is the 3 dot black menu bar remove and pull down notification wireless etc toggle menu.

My wife owns the s4 and trust me, I wish they would have taken more time working out the bugs. She's Constantly complaining about little things not working, and I'm always having to clear cache on apps, rebooting her phone and what not to fix it.
My htc one runs 100x more stable than her s4 despite being rooted rommed and s off

Yeah I got rid of the s4 for this. That phone was laggy as hell. And I had custom kernels and roms on it. This was faster then that off the bat. And even with cpu powersave on it is still faster haha.
