Good to see you're interested... I've enjoyed your other ports... I'm interested to see what webOS is all about...

This has the rom download and kernels and what not... Not sure if that's what would be needed to get this done...

seems like a need a palm pre to get to the webOS files, is there a way for anyone to pull the system files from their webOS device using debugger mode or something similar to android's way of pulling the system.

you should be able to download WebOS Doctor... it has everything needed to totally wipe the device and reinstall everything fresh... so it would have all the system files in it.
you should be able to find it somewhere other than palms site. on palms page you need to put in your phones serial to download it.
if you end up needing it, i would be happy to download it and host it so you can grab it quick. (wife has a pre plus).
the newest version is 1.4.5.

Hey, found a link for the latest WebOS doctor that camalus was talking about, direct download link for the file is http://palm.cdnetworks.net/rom/pre/...1351rod/webosdoctorp101ewwverizonwireless.jar
and link to the Webos doctor site that hosts all doctor files for all WebOS devices is
http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Webos_Doctor_Versions#Pre_Plus_3
..................hopefully that should be enough to get started!!

Wow this would be amazing. I'm sure alot of people would love this! ID is the man for the job

I had a Pre Plus for a while and my biggest beef, besides crappy hardware, was the lack of apps.
One of the advantages over Android...an awesome Facebook app worth of praise. They did a good job.

Ended up returning mine within the 30-day period (after 2 defective ones) for an Incredible

Any updates on anyone picking this project up?

Hey ID I had a Palm Pre Plus for like 29 before I got my Dinc. I loved the card UI, you can have like 50 things going on at once. Phone would get hot and battery would go but it was a nice OS. The Acer test video you made reminded me of it a little.

TSF Shell Pro 3d Laucher will be Available 29 Feburary 2012

here is the new news...
http://www.talkandroid.com/93005-ts...-8-days-start-your-drooling-now/#.T0faEEzVy8k
Quote from their website: "With additional features of the TSF Shell official release time is determined in February, when will be published in ANDROID MARKET, so stay tuned."
I was doing some snooping and Google translating from tsfui.com and it looks like this awesome Launcher will be available in the Android market in February. It looks amazing. I can not post shortcuts yet as I am still a noob on this site (I am not worried about it but if you want to see for your self I left some references at the bottom of this post).
There is a You Tube video for anyone who has not seen it yet, just do a google search for TSF Shell and you can see a demo video on how well it seems to work.
This would satisfy my waiting for ICS or CM9 for a little bit (until one of them comes out). I just love the fluid motions, intuitive folders and customization's that are available. Can't wait to see this on my phone.
For reference purposes, I found this by going to the bottom of their home page and selecting the news icon in the Site Map.
To translate- let the page load completely then right click and select translate to English - oh yeah, I only use Chrome so I am not sure about other browsers.

I like it can't wait to try it out it looks pretty neat
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

video does look cool. i just hope it's not $15 like spb shell 3d. although this looks more robust i just can't justify $15 for a theme.

Maybe it's just me, but this and all other 3D launchers look really, really cluttered. There's like 25 different buttons on the homescreen!
But hey, to each his own. Looks nice, nonetheless, just looks a bit too cluttered in the video, for me.

i can totally understand that. i personally believe something like this to be worth the $15, based on the sole fact that they are making android do things i have never even thought of, let alone seen. but, i WILL wait to see if the Go Dev team tries to implement some of these new techniques/features. if i have to, ill wince and fork over the $15 though lol

completely agree. one thing i thought to myself like 6 times during the vid was, ''i hope i can turn that feature off, i hope i can hide that button''. still worth it imo. and i will TOTALLY report back once it comes out and i get it.

Looks neat but seems totally impractical.

Totally agree....If something just looks good but makes things harder to use I do not see the point.
You guys want to try a cool launcher. It lets you put items anywhere on the screen. You can also scroll each page down like in WM7. The developer is actively working on all the bugs and I emailed him last night with some and he got back to me within 15 minutes....Definitely work checking out and will be awesome when everything is ironed out. I also run my screen at 160 density and it makes this launcher even cooler...Check it out.... SSLauncher

You guys do realize that most of the vid is pretty much just showing how you set it up. Its kind of unfair to judge it from that. Setting up a launcher is always the tedious part. I want to see the launcher in action once its setup to your liking
Tapatalkin it from my Epic 3g Touch

Also I feel technical launchers like this is what makes me love android. If you want a launcher that is plain and just works isn't the iPhone kind of the winner in that dept. Sad to say
Tapatalkin it from my Epic 3g Touch

WHAT!!??
HOLY CRAP!! WHAT'S SPB SHELL?? LOL Yeah...don't care if it's officially the priciest app on the market, I'm gettin' me some of that! AMAZING interface!!

Do any of these launchers use gpu acceleration like touchwiz?
What's the point of using a launcher/rom if it sucks up twice the battery than stock?

Nice interface, but again it just reminds me all the more why I stuck with Zeam Launcher.

this. but, part of my enjoying a launcher IS in setting it up. which is why i LOVE Go Launcher. SO many options and eye candy! there are still little quirks about it that to this day, when i perform an action, i whisper ''man, i love this launcher...''

Which is completely fine, you want the minimalist experience. we are also commenting in another thread, and you mentioned you wouldnt paint your car. and i have no problem with that, but there are definitely people who will want this type of interface and who will paint there cars. its just not for ya, i guess. bet you get WAY better battery life than me though LOL

Thoughts On This?

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/sense-4-0-port-htc-endeavor-based-for-the-nexus-s/
Sense 4 on the nexus s. Makes you wonder what can happen on our phone. Many people will probably say it wont work without major tweaks and drivers but look at the HD2. That phone has been pushed to the limit. I wonder if our device could do something similar.

Meanwhile Eugene has ported sense to the sgs2 check his twitter. pics included: https://twitter.com/#!/Eugene373

LOL nice come back, what I meant though I just didn't think any developer would take their time to do it.

lol crazy timing. but yea i do feel that and i think it kinda sucks. Devs are awesome though it does take alot of time. i wish i could dev because id just attack all the crazy ports and such

Multi window ability with Gnex

Hello,
I saw the Verizon S3 has been given the ability to run 2 windows at the same time.
LINK
Im just curious at why this feature hasnt been ported to the Gnex? Maybe its the hardware specs but its just a question i thought of!
Thanks for reading!:good:

Been a while since this question was asked flooded the forum daily, but the general consensus then was it is not possible w/o a touchwiz port. If you want more info, do a search, it's been talked about multiple times.

yep I've been reading. there were some beta/alpha releases with touch wiz that gave the ability, very slightly. Force closed every few seconds, but other than that we would need a skilled developer and lots of time haha

Most of us here agree that nobody wants TW/BLUR/etc, we bought Nexus for "pure Android" or AOSP or an enhanced AOSP ROM. That is why you wont likely see fully functional ports of those skins/overlays/bloatware, we bought Nexus to get away from that bs. No offense to anybody who likes those skins or the features that they might come with, but the Nexus community is more AOSP focused.

hardware doesn't powerful enough, so if you run two window in GNexus, you will feel that works too slow

I think AOSP is great indeed! im not one for sence, unless its sense 5.0, and TW just has the neat window effect. Im sure eventually it could be created natively eventually. The Halo idea is a step towards it i think. Maybe one day!

What about Cornerstone? I loved it on my tablet, while I used it. Not sure how well it would work on a smaller screen though.

Pretty cool reading up on it! Not an app, but has to be built into the ROM itself. Its open source now and looks doable? if there is a will, there is a way. thanks for the share!

Yeah, sorry if I created any confusion. It definitely needs to be baked into the ROM source. "He who we do not name" had an Iconia A500 ICS ROM with Cornerstone built in. It was nice but he didn't include it in future releases of ICS or JB. My understanding is, is that it's really designed for larger screen devices like tablets. I'm pretty sure text etc. would be too small to read in the smaller multitasking windows. But running 2+ apps at once on a GNex and being able to bring them to the larger window at will would be pretty darn sweet. :highfive:

Hell yeah!
Here are some nightly builds it appears for the GNEX, but not for toro, which i have.
Link is here

In all honesty, why? The device's age is clearly showing with the ongoing firmware updates that are optimized for higher end devices. The GN, while still a great phone, is becoming somewhat slow and I can't see a mod like this being any better.
It would be indeed a cool idea for the N4 though.

you can try to do a full wipe, it often works

[Q] Help choosing a ROM (Very new to this)

Hi, I'm Gabe and I'm new as you can see... So I just rooted my device and I'm looking for a very stable and very customization rom.
My ex used to handle this stuff.. But we aren't together anymore so I'm doing it myself.
I want
Good battery life
Customization ability like lots of themes!
Stability
Cool SMS themes and stuff I hate my galaxy sms layout agh.
I hate touchwiz sorry.
Ps. I'm a girl btw everyone just calls me gabe

Gabe first thing first. Questions go in the Q&A section not in the General section. As far as asking which the best rom is also like a pointless question as they all are. It's user preference what's going to make the rom perfect for you. All these types of which is best threads end up locked. Maybe you should start with this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38172219 there is lots of useful information. Then just try which ones appeal to you and choose which is best for you.

Well kudos for being a giiiiiiirl, but its all good.
If you want customization, always aosp. Personally, I'd recommend aokp.

Actually I think I just miss my iphone thats why I'm selling it. I been using my blackberry because it actually is faster when i'm texting and stuff. I liked CM10 but it just wasn't what I thought. I love my android I wish I could keep both but I won't be able. I just have to find a buyer which has been very hard.
I'm considering finding a good trade or something either iphone or blackberry torch but probably iphone. But it's still rooted and I'm not very sure about unrooting and stuff things like this requires lots of thought and I don't like thinking a lot lol.
I really do appreciate your response though =]

Mmm, I see, well that's respectable. Personally, not a fan either but we all have choices.
If you're trying to sell your GS III, you might want to try listing it on swappa.com ; they sell androids and if you price it 'reasonably' you should get a buyer probably easily. Doing ^, you can list it as root, and the buyer will probably want it like that, saying you trouble. Though if you really need help unrooting, I can help you with that.

I'm a nursing student an a Iphone would suit me better because it last awhile for me and I would defiantly need a stable device. I posted a ad on swappa I'm hoping I did it correctly and for a reasonably price I saw a Iphone 5 on their pretty cheap I hope I get enough for the galaxy to buy it.
