the phone over all is great ! on the keyboard is still a touchy %^#*$ at time but im still adjusting testing out better keyboard atm with the oild slick skin i wish thee was a skin that made the keys a bit bigger

idk about the customizable .. my winmo phone was pretty tweaked :p

yeah the keyboard can be tricky. i installed better keyboard with the default android skin from the market. really helps alot. what i mean is flashing and adding themes and such are so much easier than winmo.

My latest iPhone screenshot. Theme is a Mix of Lucerna, CAROL and Eminence, which can be found on devart. The wall is from iPhaze and can also be found on dev art. Come to think about the lockscreen Tenuitas can also be found on devart :blush:

nice, too bad i hate the vanilla look. sense ftw!

i am new to android but i always followed the progress of the platform and until android 2.0 i was of the same opinion - vanilla android looks like sht. but with android 2.0, now android 2.0.1 and 2.1 on the N1, android kinda nailed it for me: simple, fast, nice animations and enough eye-candy to more-than-statisfy a loyal apple user.

i loved sense when htc introduced it with the hero but now i feel like its so cluttered. there is so much stuff there... dont know. i mean my desktop is not the definition of minimalism aswell, though it has already changed since i took the screenshot, but the default-android, in my optinion, really looks awesome, by now. =)

i must say that at the moment, there is nothing, except for SlideScreenPro which would let me not want the default-look. and even SlideScreen didnt entirely convince me.

I'd post mine here but not sure what software to use, if someone can give me the name of a piece of software for android 1.5 to take a screen print I'll edit this post with it.

the app is called "shootme" it's free on the market but you need to be rooted.

the only thing i don't like about vanilla is the white taskbar. i saw some screens of the hero's sense 2.1 update coming next month and it looks awesum. heres the link

yeah i thought the white taskbar sucked aswell but as with everything else i must say, i was tought better.

really, sense looks kinda... dull to me. i dont like those ... orbs around the icons and everything looks so cluttered.

id love to see sense on a 800x480 device, though. is there any HTC-device yet which runs android at that resolution (apart from the N1, of course.)?

edit: okay, here we see some wvga-powered sense 2.1 on the HTC incredible... and that does look kinda nice, i must admit:

The theme is from Cydia's featured Theme list, I have no idea what its called. Thanks.

Tired of the iPhone, I might be buying another HTC Dream (Tmobile G1) next week to play with Android.

That theme is AnnMe. I don't see the point in me posting a screenshot as my phone looks basically the same :pinch: .

      Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • AI Revolution or AI Bubble ? The Trillion-Dollar Question Splitting Wall Street and Silicon Valley

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.
