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.

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: .

    • AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179 by Taras Buria Apple's third-gen AirPods Pro 3 introduced a few important upgrades over the previous generation while retaining the old $249 price. Still, that is quite a lot of money for a pair of earbuds, but the good news is that right now, you can save quite a lot of money on them, thanks to a new all-time low price. AirPods Pro 3 retain their classic look and form factor, with changes focused on the inside. These earbuds now come with five sets of foam-silicone tips, which sit much more securely in your ear, making the earbuds a perfect choice for physical activities and workouts. Additionally, new tips provide better passive noise cancellation. Speaking of noise cancellation, ANC is now much better at blocking outside noise, with Apple claiming the AirPods Pro mute up to two times more sound than the AirPods Pro 2. The AirPods Pro 3 also have heart rate sensors for activity tracking during workouts. They also support Live Translation and Hearing Aid mode. As for battery life, you get up to 8 hours on a single charge, with the case adding 20 more. The case supports wireless (Qi or Apple Watch charger) and wired charging over USB Type-C (cable not included).

    • [Official] Doctor Who Thread

      Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By _neutrino · Posted

      You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
