TouchXperience project progress
Written by Julien Schapman
Saturday, 27 September 2008 07:32
To make you patient until the public release, I decided to give you regular news about TouchXperience project progress and to give you more details about some TouchXperience features. Don't hesitate to make suggestions in the dedicated forum.
The first public release will be (finally!) available in October (2008!), TouchXperience will be available for HTC TyTN, TyTN II, Touch Pro, Touch Diamond, and later Touch HD. Other devices may be supported in the future and non-HTC touch devices (such as Samsung Omnia/i900) are not excluded, but be aware that I need to invest in new devices to work on it, and developping for non-HTC devices may take longer because I use to develop on HTC hardware only.
Site has exceeded bandwidth... he didn't sneak a release out last night did he?
Lol it's might just be the case. Site has never been down since he took it online. I've been checking the release status frequently.

Following some site's the rom is now downloadable. But the site won't work because of the traffic. Also it's possible that some other company has bought the product from him... You never know.
So maybe it won't be downloadable at all. But ofcourse he won't sell it, will he?
Can't wait untill there is some download link available.
Ok taking this back, just read that he won't sell it. Since he said it himself. Hope there will soon be a new mirror. I really respect this

That is his other site. Not the site where he hosts his forum and downloads...
So don't know if it's really released.

(this Dutch page states that it's downloadable already. But don't know if it's a proper en good review. It doesn't go that deep...

That last link is for a new item posted on 1st August
I'm sure if it was released he would have popped in to say so. Looks like something caused a traffic surge though, maybe he got slashdotted lol.
Hmm....
Yeah, that is pretty interesting... I guess we'll have to follow up over the weekend to see what the truth is!
Try clicking on the link in the Dutch forum, it sends you to the "Site has exceeded bandwidth" screen. Schaps may have released it but has been too busy to post it here. Could also just be a demo or test app...
Will keep trying and update later..
Unfortunately the recent release of the Android 1.0 source code (http://source.android.com/download) and the HTC ROMS that will surely follow may make this project moot.
Kaiser ROM Development
Hermes Android ROM Discussion
Especially considering that Windows Mobile 7 may not be out until 2010.
But so goes the software industry...
Not really as the developement of Android for the Hermes isn't exactly powering along and the general consensus is that it may not be possible to port Android to the Hermes. Something to do with the fact Hermes is a ARM4 processor and Android was made to work on ARM5.
Cheers...

just read the comments on the forum
marco899 wrote that he has donated 10€ and become a tester
bing wrote first that there is no download, 3 weeks later truffel50 asked and bing wrote that schap's computer crashed...
i can't find anything that speaks for a download and the first comment from bing says there is no download so we have to wait until we don't need it anymore becuase we can controll our new high tech devices with our mind or so...
That may be true

But the Hermes doesn't have much real life left, in fact the Kaiser is getting a bit old, too. At least as far as mobile devices go.
The Kaiser is not even a year old. Hell AT&T does not even have a replacement yet for the tilt.

Actually ATT is bringing the Touch Pro but it will be called "The Fuze" and it will be here in November I believe.

Yeah they have the Fuze coming out soon, but as I said not Yet. They seem to bring out a new one once a year.
I know most of you who clicked this thread would probably think this is another thread that asked if it was possible. Well I'm here to share the great news to HD2 owners... http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2381 read it up!
Apparently a russian team has been working on it and looks like theyre working (from screenshots) and a beta release should be soon
PS MOD: if it is against the rules to paste links from htcpedia pls delete thread. thanks

Again, no video. It's easy to fake screenshots. On the other hand, why would Tom destroy his reputation?
Let's wait and see...
I think I'm going to keep my HD2 a little longer. Not that it's likely that I will prefer WP7S over WM6.5 or Android, but I'm curious to try it...

tom is a pretty reputable source, i dont think that he'd do that either.
It was also confirmed by a Mod in the HD2 ROM development thread. Lets wait and see..

easy to fake a screen shot with shadow and glare and perfect reflection...
A prominent person such as him is not a person who would let his name get dragged in the mud like that, I'm inclined to believe this is the real deal. Its alot sooner than I couldve ever hoped for, but with the lack of software available at this point anyone trying this without an IRONCLAD way of downgrading is a hopeful idiot IMO.
Still, fantastic news nonetheless.

Of course, if you display it on the phone.
Very easy, actually.
Well, Tom actually says the pictures are coming from Russian hackers, and I'm a member at the forum where this was posted initially. These guys are very reputable and have proved more than once that they have some good sources, but they could play a joke as well.
Good sources? Afaik they just hacked an HTC server.
But you're right, those guys are credible.
Too bad they couldn't make a video, though
Video is up guys
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJCFdojbjh8
And that video doesn't look like it's that Throttle Launcher WP7 skin?
not to me...
I say bring it on though
Video seems suspicious to me as you can't see if it's really an HD2 - all you can see is a black shape. But then, these people who have done and confirmed this are indeed reputable...
My prayers have been answered. Granted, I figured it would just be a matter of time... just not this SHORT an amount of time!!!

Guys, this is tom_codon. Just have a look about XDA, I very much doubt he would do this.
As for me, I read in the (other forum) thread that you cannot go back to WM6.5 once installed, as they had to replace the bootloader to get it to work - so this is definitely out of the question for me...
video 2 for all the doubters....

If they came this far to get it on there then I'm sure that will get figured out as well.
Called HTC today. Gentleman said that google has not released 2.2 to HTC yet for development so it definitely won't be released on 23rd (today). He said when they have it, there will be a schedule released on the front page of htc.com/www/
already got it. apparently

why say "delay"?
HTC didn't officially say that it will be released today, 23 June.
Just my 2 cents.
Oh Goodness T_T
this is real sad.
Bet so many desire owners feels the pain =(
what to say, htc support!

http://www.google.com/support/forum...488da0ef21660d1300048994d2e4bf4c&hl=en&hltp=1
Everyone can start complaining once the source is released, but until then, god quit blaming HTC. and yes I know HTC probably already has the source, and has probably already updated Senseui for it, but until Google finalizes it, HTC won't release an update.

who's got what??
I don't want to use words like other people about lack of google's informations about any release date, unprofessionnal support, htc support etc... I'm sure they would better hire some of you guys to help them! You are the one which are giving us what we need, not google nor htc. I'm sorry, but feeling like moving to another OS, being iOS or WM7... too disappointed, sorry.
The only people you should be disappointed in are the rumourmongerers who got you thinking that some official source had promised to get you FroYo on 23 June.

You're right jstegeman... Even by myself trusting and hoping these. But I had hope in Google as well and not having any fix release date look to me unprofessionnal... the term "shortly" used by them can mean days, weeks, months... Is it so difficult to say the release date will be the xx of xx year xx and keep that date?
Sorry but this might come from my Swiss habits, having the clock's at the right time, no improvisation, organization... I hate "not knowing" and am quite impatient lol

I dont know if this is true, but seems more reliable than words of a customer, lets hope for the best
zdnet is reliably.
and it ever was.
they will lost the good reputation, they worked for if this isnt true
and i dont think, they wanna risk it
This happens again and again and people believe this. Guys, first of all this is a stupid excuse from customer support.
Do you really think that Google lets HTC wait for release like the rest of us? They have been working on 2.2 from early stages too, they must if they want to release timely 2.2 devices.
Secondly, they would never ever release a froyo build before google.

Sorry Swissman,
but a new release of a OS is NOT a FIX as you defined it.
There have been fixes available on the air, and - afaik - no other os-manufacturer does release on-the-air fixes like Google does.
Moreover, you bought a mobile phone with a working os, and - always afaik - you cannot blame Google in being supposedly in delay for a new release of an OS.
What should you think then about Microsoft for Windows 7 or Apple for OS 4????? Not to talk about Meego or else.....
Please have a cup of tea and try and have a different opiniono about "unprofessionality"....

hey seanomccool, you just got a scoop (not)!
People with some common sense knows it since a few weeks: froyo isn't officially released yet on it's primary platform, so no way it could be released today on the desire! In fact, google just told that there's no ETA yet for froyo.
dont panic m8s,it will happend soon

This. It really is a nice device.
Some people are taking scrap and accept it as a full meal;
and maybe that's fine, cause maybe it's all we are going to get.
Remember that the Redmi Note 7 still dont have a official version to this very day.
The current root methods described here on XDA for the RN8Pro feels like…
Mashed potatoes with more or less broken english and few drops of luck, just for good measure...
Sorry, I got sidetracked a little bit;
Stay stronK M8, maybe it's still coming. Maybe.

Exactly. And adding to that, the amount of misinformation and blatant liters around this handset is just absolutely mind-blowing. At some point you might see someone casually ranting about how it's best not to expect anything positive about this device and then you turn your head around only to see the same person claiming to be a ROM developer that almost have a fully functional ROM for it.... XIAOMI didn't even release the touchscreen driver for the phone!!! Yet some "developers" out there somehow has a "working ROM" and looking for testers.... ???
