If you think about the poor countries which people still just start to use year 2008 model phones, you will see that the market is very big. Note: Most of the people in the world are in that group.

Meh. Graphic designers mirror and photochop images all the time to make it look "better" in the ad they are making. Its led to some classic Photoshop ad fails, like a left hand grafted to a right arm.

Not as bad as the Droid X with an iOS screenshot on it in some of the Verizon ads.
I have recently seen a large number of flyers for the Blackberry Torch which clearly had a android homescreen with sense!
i saw another one today: android screenshot on an omnia 7 pro.. or whatever it was. either way, optus, and in fact the entire australian telecom industry fails.

Come on already who cares about gingerbread? Ics is the new flavor fav of the month

Let's face it once google announced the ics as the next version of android why do some people still want gb when ics can be leaked and used on our phones. Google needs to be the one doing the updates not the carriers and phone makers. Google should open a beta and prebeta builds to all who want them.

For someone who's been around since the 70's you seem to not understand the development life cycle of a product to be expecting such an asinine thing to happen.
Using win7 (retail) to win8 (alpha) argument proves your failure to grasp that.
BTW, i love how decad3nce pwned your last post. LOL

Because to us Gingerbread is the most important release ever! Gingerbread was made with Hummingbird in mind..ICS is a huge improvement for dual core phones..while we definitely get some new features, you would not notice such huge performance increases as you do with Gingerbread.

Very good news M8

Oh hell yeah can't wait to get the Multi window feature.
.

Well, if they're testing it is because it's possible. I've seen the old SGS1 doing SO much even with that severe lack of memory, i reckon 1Gb is more than enough to do everything if well coded. I'm guessing it's just easier for samsung to add more ram than waste time in optimized coding and probably was a bit overboard hence the actual memory "problems". That and poor ram managing, my phone just seems to kill any process if the screen goes off after a while (it's a pain to download any game's extra data after installing, phone just cuts it off)
Anyway, this is wonderful news, thank you. Can't wait
Desperately waiting for this feature Great News
With this feature the s3 will definetly pwn the iphone5 and the nexus4 xd

members in the Israeli community are trying to get their hands on the rom...
believe me, when we'll have it, it'll post.
finger cross it'll be on final version as well.
I hope there will be a leak and then i can try to port it to the i9305
Yeah, right. I believe it when I see it, and a possibly photoshopped picture isn't valid proof.
the ****ers decided to make it as a closed beta only for those who bought their phone directly from them.
Heh i see this rom have kernel from 6-9 Nov xd

Robert Downey Jr. To become HTC global smartphone ambassador

I didn't see this mentioned here yet, apologies if it has already been.
So what do you guys/gals think ? Personally I think it's a good move considering the pull he could have from a marketing standpoint. It's been noted that he'll be playing himself and not ironman.

For marketing to be successful there needs to be a high number of placements, impressions and repetition. That takes money. So for BB and HTC to have Alicia Keys and Robert Downey Jr. as tie-ins is great. But not having the money to keep that in the public eye kind of limits its effectiveness. For Samsung, the Jay Z endorsement is about .001% of their overall promotional budget and is a throw-away. HTC's total marketing budget is about $300MM which sounds big but is pretty small against $8B in sales when you're trying to market to a global audience.
I know I should have thought of Iron Man first, but I instead imagined Sherlock Holmes using an HTC One.
I can imagine him doing great stuff with Sense 5 and telling Watson "It is simplicity itself!"

Downey will be featured in the campaign as himself, not the characters he plays in movies including Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes, and will have final say over creative elements, the people said, declining to be named because the talks aren't public. The maker of the slim, metal HTC One handset will likely feature Downey in television, print and billboard ads, they said.​http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-...ert-downey-jr-for-12-million-ad-campaign.html
