Motoblur port to Evo?

Not sure if this should be posted in the development section, but I figured its more of a question than anything development related
Does anyone know if it would be possible to port over the new edition of motoblur? And before we all freak out, watch the videos of the new Droid X
(here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/exclusive-motorola-droid-x-preview/)
Judging by the specs I've seen...
Some of the listed specs include:
4.4-inch, FWVGA 854 x 480-resolution screen
Android 2.1 with "some new sort of Motoblur"
8-megapixel camera
Ability to record 720p video
Multitouch keyboard
1GHz ARMv7 processor
8GB of storage space

...The processor is identical; that should help, no? It doesn't seem like too much of a stretch, but I'm no developer.
I just really like the clean, vanilla look of the new motoblur, SenseUI has always seemed a little boring to me. Any thoughts/ideas?

The processors currently both run at 1 ghz, but they are FAR from the same processor. Evo sports a snapdragon from qualcomm while the Droid x has an omap from Texas instruments.
It's a bit premature but I have a feeling that processor is a better candidate for overclocking. Hopefully all those leaked quadrant tests we saw of this phone really were on froyo.
That processor is about the only thing I want from that phone.
Motoblur? No thanks. Not even with a cool name like "ninjablur".
I still say Evo all the way

Yes the Droid X is using ninjablur, a more "adult" version of motoblur. as for a port, i dont even think the old motoblur was ported to anything besides the G1, its bad. Sense > moto/ninjablur by far. ADW or Launcher Pro > blur also

Shows you how much I know, thanks for clearing that up for me. I was under the impression that since they were both "1Ghz ARMv7" processors they were more similar than that.
Don't get me wrong, my point to this post was not to talk down the Evo, it is by far the best device I have ever used, and I find the X to be bulbous and not as clean cut as my Evo. But as much as I love my Evo, I despise SenseUI. Maybe if it was called NINJAUI I would feel differently
I guess I'll just have to wait for a nice AOSP or Froyo ROM.

LOL I'm not one to bite people's head off for "questioning the Evo". It's so early into our Evo ownership that we have every right to question our purchase (especially within the 30 day window). As for me I have no questions about the Evo, I haven't had any of the hardware defects lots of other ppl have been reporting.
My only issue with my decision is Sprint's data speeds. Some people get great speeds and I am uber jealous. Indianapolis is the 11th biggest city in the US and my data speeds here blow. I routinely get 150kbps downstream on 3G. With a "premium data" add on you tell me how you would feel paying extra and getting stuck with those speeds....

gah shame on my double posting self.

Didn't notice you were from Indy as well, we are in need of some 4G lovin. I'm not home enough to report on my 3G speeds there but I can tell you it can't be much worse than the 1x I get while at school in Bloomington
I've been lucky as well, I have a little bit of the screen rise but not enough to make a fuss about it yet. I just hate that damn Sense, I stumbled upon Avalaunch's EVOlution ROM, that'll hold me over until a proper 2.2 can be released..then I'll never look back
I'll run some speed tests this weekend when I'm home and let you know how mine looks. I'm up on the NE side.
EDIT: that probably confused you, didn't realize I was logged in on my other account :/

I still am very interested in seeing a motoblur brought to the EVO; im actually trying to work on that but i have no real time

Upgrade to the thunderbolt or wait?

My brother agreed to give me the upgrade on his line if I gave him my inc. So i would also have another upgrade in June 2012 so should I upgrade to the thunderbolt or keep my dinc? I'm looking for some advise as to what I should do.

I say wait...there are a lot of new phones coming out. The thunderbolt wouldn't be worth it to me.

I agree. The Thunderbolt is not dual-core. Plus Verizon will be getting the Xperia Play and other great phones. Including some great dual-core phones.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

If it was me I would probably wait for a dual core phone with LTE. My girlfriend has the Thunderbolt and it is not much better than my Incredible other that has the big screen that I like.

I say wait too for something with dual core, 3d cam?, and something with a battery that last longer than 3 hours

Seems as though everybody would rather wait. Lol. Seems like an easy enough decision.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

I would hold out although for you it's probably easier said than done. Hard to resist I'm sure!
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

I too would wait.
I have to ask, what is the big deal about dual core processors? I mean, what are we expecting these new phones to be able to perform that our Droid Incredible can't?

I just picked up a DInc for the wife, and we now have a TBolt sitting around playing Pandora in the kitchen.
She hated it, ( TB ) but being that it was the 2nd phone she got ( she returned the iPhone ) she's stuck with it. She tried to tell me that she would give me the TB for my DInc, but I really like mine and an not willing to part with it just yet.
Long short I traded my old Eris + a ridiculously small amount of cash for what appears to be a almost new DInc and she seems to be happy with it...
For now...
So, I'd wait

Watch this video. Both of these are dual-core. Super fast compared to the incredible.

Thank me if I help.

i say wait. thunderbolt looks nice but it's not a major upgrade, especially if you're not in a LTE coverage area.
i'm holding my upgrade for the bionic or for the next HTC LTE phone, whichever come first.

The new Sense 3.0 ROMS are keeping me pretty busy that last few days and also has made it a lot easier to not want a new phone right away. Its almost like getting a new one!

I craved the Thunderbolt. I watched forums on it daily during the whole Thundergate release date situation. I finally got tired of waiting. Ended up spending the $700 on a set of recliners instead (I was going to pay full price for the TB).
Then I started sniffing around the DINC2. Same specs as TB only 4" display and no LTE. Not too shabby. Only problem I've been hearing, locked bootloader? Ugh.

i own a new Thunderbolt, and even thought the specs don't look like an improvement they really are. And even though dual core is out there, the test beween dual and single aren't that far off from each other.
Quadrant scores (which is yes invaild technically) at 1.4 oc 2690, but mostly at 2100-2300
Positives
-more ram (768 mb), which makes a insane difference, almost never lags.
-The cpu is 1 ghz but can safely over clock to 1.4 (because qualcomm has stated it is stable clock from 800mhz-1.41 ghz) and i even got it stable at 1.8
-comes preloaded with 32 gb card, nice plus. and even thought it says 8 emmc, it only has 2.8 GB or something to work with, what is still a good amount.
-screen is gorilla glass, so its tough and durable.
-camera 720p recording (rumors of 1080p with new sense roms)
-if u want to video chat then yes this phone has a front camera thats always nice.
-Even though the screen is big, it doesn't feel it. because got some width instead of just length like droid x it looks smaller.
-And o yea LTE which is insane, almost as good as Wifi N in some areas.
Negatives
-Battery Battery Battery Battery Battery SUCKS. But i upgraded to ginersense 2.1/3.0 mods and my battery life is insanely good all of a sudden.
-$250 for a phone is expensive, But Samsung LTE Charge is 300 and tech specs are same if not worse in some aspects.
-Stock comes with 2.2 but with root gingerbread is easily available.
But with any phone you got to buy it for your needs, so if you need battery throughout the day, dont even bother, but if you can lug around batteries or chargers, its a must upgrade.

Wait for sure.

yea definitely would wait. i have a feeling this summer we will get some sweet dual core phones, and there isnt any point in getting anything less than the best out there.

+1 for waiting. I'm perfectly happy with my Dinc until something with better hardware comes along.

Oh yeah, just wait. It's what I'd do if I had the option.

Agree

My brother has a Thunderbolt, it's pretty nice. As long as you root it, and do a few tweaks with lower voltages the battery life is pretty good (better than my incredible), but once you turn 4G on it'll be significantly worse.
I'd still say wait, unless you really want to jump into a new phone. Who knows when another comparable phone will come out.
The Thunderbolt is pretty large too, some people like that since it'll be easier to do things on- but personally I find it just more of a hassle to carry around.

Going back to my iPhone 4s

To begin, I want to say that I am not an Apple Fanboy or a mindless lemming for anything with an Apple logo. I've had many droid phones in the past. I just wanted to give my personal opinion between both phones and explain my personal reasons for dropping my GN and going back to my iPhone 4s.
I know that some people don't use the camera on their phone, but I have a 6 year old daughter. I use my camera quite a bit so it's important too me. I am not hung up on specs so the 5 mp camera didn't scare me. In the end it's all about what the pics look like. In perfect lighting situations the camera is pretty good. But we all know that most pictures aren't shot in perfect lighting conditions. For one week every time I took a pic with my GN I also shot one with my iPhone. Overall the iPhone pics were better. They were sharper, colors were more accurate and overall looked closer to what I was shooting. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying the GN is as horrible as most posts say, I'm just saying for my personal use it's quite a bit below the iPhone's camera for the situations I am in and use my camera for. Don't tell me that it's just a camera phone and I shouldn't be that picky. You can't deny that they skimped on the camera. It's not nearly as good as most current phones. I would have been happy with the same camera from the Galaxy SII, but it's not even that good.
Battery use is another reason. I realize that it's a bigger screen, faster processor etc. so it's not going to be in the same ballpark as my iPhone. However I had 4g turned off and brightness turned down to 40% and it was still horrendous. Now before you jump on my, i did root my phone and had a rom/kernel installed. No difference! I would lose 10% of my battery for every 10 minutes of on-screen time. I was averaging 1.5 hours of on-screen time before my battery died. This is something I monitored very closely.
Also, for full disclosure, my iPhone is jailbroken so I have several widgets that refresh every 15 minutes going and the on-screen time is well over 10 hours!
The screen is nice, and while it's probably the best of the droid phones, it's not better than the iPhone's. Now you can say that it's personal preference so here's what I did. I took a pic with my iPhone and sent it to my GN. I opened the pic on both phones and set them side by side. The iPhone was sharper and more realistic in each case. I also took a pic with my GN and then sent it to my iPhone for a comparison. Same result.
I really wish that those factors weren't a dealbreaker for me because otherwise it is an awesome phone! The speaker was loud, signal was strong, didn't have any rebooting issues - all of which are being reported all over the forums. It's easily the best droid phone but just not on the same level as my iPhone. Like I said my iPhone is jailbroken so I'm able to pretty much do anything that you can with the GN!
And don't tell me that the iPhone sucks and needs to be jailbroken because the same argument can be made for the GN. The reason people root and install custom rom's/kernels is because they want a different experience/performance that what they get out of the box.
Again, this post was to give an honest user experience of why I am going back to my iPhone based on how I use my phone.

Camera quality improved quite a bit in 4.0.4. Did you use this update?

Oh noooo please dont go please dont leave us!!!

I have not updated to 4.0.4. I checked and wasn't able to update to it. The rom I was using was 4.0.4 based.
Can I update somehow even if I haven't gotten the message yet?

These threads should be auto-deleted.

That's odd I have galaxy nexus lte with the 2100 battery and honestly I have no complaints about battery life I use my GPS twice a day for about an hour and half both ways and many emails and phone calls also including all the junk I look up on the internet and I still go to bed with atleast 20 percent left... all stock. The camera I can agree on wtf were they thinking. To hell with shutter speed I want quality not quantity

If you are on a custom ROM, you probably won't get the message and even if you do, you wouldn't be able to update OTA unless you reverted to stock.

Without starting a pointless flame war, this is not typical of general nexus users. You have something draining your battery. Honestly, don't let this put you off. Do some digging and see what is killing your battery and then decide. Something is amiss.

I've looked at all running apps etc. Nothing out of the ordinary that would cause the battery to drain that quick. And this was with 4g off and on wifi.

While I concur that the camera is not as good as the iPhone’s—Google and Samsung failed here—I don’t know how you did this. With stock 4.0.4 I get 3.5-4 hours of screen time consistently and plenty of battery to spare, and I don’t do anything special to get it. That said, you’d have to pay me, and pay me well, to force me to use an iPhone daily.

Wtf did I just read.. retina is better than super amoled HD ? So you're telling me you can see the 20 pixels ? The experience on the nexus is much better.. iPhone is for dumb people, no offense, not to say that iPhone looks way too familiar now, and its build quality is ****, the nexus is better in everything except camera where the iPhone slightly edges the nexus

I would agree with you on the camera bit. The camera on my old iPhone 4 was far superior than my Galaxy Nexus. With the GN you really need a steady hand to get a proper shot. I haven't got the 404 update yet so I'm hoping that this will be fixed.

Well sounds like you don't have enough time to tailor Android to your liking, ****ty deal. IPhone will be perfect for you then.

I manage to get 3 hours at least on a normal day, even with wifi only half of that. Get betterbatterystats from here on xda and see what (if anything) is keeping your phone awake. Seriously, something is not right. Maybe something as simple as a ROM/Kernel combo. Try a few different ones and see how you fare.

Go back to your Apple world, enjoy the limitations and enjoy not being able to customize to it's full extent. You can say that you can do anything with your iPhone4S but at the end of the day that is just not true. Jailbroken or not.
Again, go, have fun, no skin off any of our backs and now we have one less hostile person to worry about.

should i buy a Nitro?!

I want to pick up a nitro, I'm wondering if there is a stable ics 4.0 rom for it yet. i see the akop rom but it says it has issues with video and the video camera. are there any other roms that run pretty close if not perfectly. thanks for the input

There's cm9 nightly.

International version is p936 for which there is a .kdz rom usable on the p930 (all variants) but that will unfortunately prevent the possibility to root
Battery life isn't that bad for me, but I've rooted the phone and disabled, with no bloat free, all the at&t packages + few others.
I usually (with normal use and letting the phone on 24/7) get 3 days with 2 charges.. so a day and half per charge or so.
When I use it more intensely I detach it from charger in the morning and reattach it before going to sleep which is acceptable for me because it doesn't die on me during the day.

got it!! the latest cm9 nightly installed, so far so good,the screen is a little narrower than id like, but it does make it nice to hold. so heres the first day with battery, lets see how it goes. thanks for the help guys i think this may be something to hold me over till the htc one x gets a little cheaper.

8mile lol true. Battery life is not that bad on the nitro. And if it was then an extended battery would work even bettrt

If you bought this phone, you've made a huge mistake. I just got HTC One X and despite the fact that it only has 16gb storage (10gb available), no SD card slot and no removable battery, it punches Nitro in the face to the ground and then finishes it by kicking in the nuts.
I've been using this phone for two days so far, have restored all apps/settings as on Nitro and used it exactly the same way (slacker radio + sporty pal for at least 2 hours), it lasts me 10 hours without recharge, while Nitro would die in 3 hours with just these two apps running!!!
Besides some minor software glitches (over aggressive memory management and crackling sounds when switching apps) I can't find anything bad about this phone...and I'm a very picky person when it comes to quality...

Just got my one x. Incredible phone.

i would say nitro probably has the best screen so far in all android phones.

definitely

How is the build quality of this phone? Anyone encounter any hardware problems?
I currently have a Galaxy s2(Sprint). I've never owned an LG device and the galaxy forums rarely have anything good to say about LG. I'm not here to start a fight or bash phone manufacturers.
With the announcement of the Optimus Lte2 and Eclipse Lte specs, I am rather intrigued. Thanks in advance.

build quality is excellent. My favorite out of all the LTE devices at&t has. Nice grippy back Vivid is too heavy, skyrocket feels too plasticky to me. Nice medium on the nitro.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA

I second that. I think LG has some very good build quality. The reason people are so hostile toward LG on this site is not clear to me, but it's certainly true that LG does not have particularly good dev support.
On the plus side, none of their devices are NAND locked as far as I know, which is nice after coming from an HTC phone.

I generally like to try a lot of phones. And finally sold my 4s for 550 and bought a new nitro in box for 250. Best decision ever.
Spent 2 usd unlocking it and 20 bucks for the extended battery. Rooting it was a pain but finally succeeded. Now happily enjoying cm9. Love this phone as much as I loved my galaxy nexus. This phone is totally underrated for reasons unknown to me. Its quick, great screen and nice build quality. No issues with any of the radios (my infuse used to struggle to get a GPS lock). I finally feel like I am not going to switch phones for a while as this has everything m looking for.

I am currently switching back and forth from ATT one X to my nitro (I'm a phone geek). The one x screen rapes the nitro screen. You'd have to use one to understand. That said, the one x screen is too big for my taste.

Wanted to get the Nitro for my mother. Since it's unlocked, will it work with T mobile's network?

@sewhuy,
Afaik, nobody here has reported yea or nay on the Nitro working on Tmobile's data. You'd definitely get phone service and at least GSM 2G/Edge, but you may not get your full HSPA+. I did hear that Tmobile was enabling the 1900 band, though, in some markets, so it's possible you might be able to use it just fine.

Cool, as long as she's able to make phone calls. She's been using my old iphone 3gs for the past several years and now her screen has become unresponsive. She mainly uses the phone to check weather and take pictures of her grand children. Since the device has a good display, I am sure she will enjoy the Nitro. I'm just glad she's not one of those high maintainance facebooking grandmothers. Thanks for the input

So, who's satisfied overall?

I personally am a little let down with my S3. It may be fast but has some minor issues.. My power button gets stuck if I press it at the wrong angle in the lower area and the power button squeaks sometimes. Then some keyboard lag randomly isn't the best. The quadrant scores vary from time to time. But it does work well besides that and I feel is one of the best phones out there. Anyone having some similar issues? and What do you guys think about the s3?
And I'm sorry if there is a post for this already. I'm using the xda app and the search doesn't work well.

You may want to have sprint check out your phone and either fix it for you or replace. I've had zero issues with the power button. As nice as the phone is, you shouldn't have to deal with the button squeaking or sticking.

My home button has been solid since I got it. Has a nice click to it. As for keyboard lag and varying quadrant scores, those may be attributed to the same problem. When I was running stock I'd get the same problems too. Once I rooted and installed NoFrillsCPU Control I enabled "prevent changes from other apps" and haven't had any lag since. I think it still clocks down the CPU when it runs too hot though.

Wouldnt i be charged? and its my power button. not home.

Agreed. This is the first phone I haven't felt compelled to root. It's been great right out of the box.

By far, the best phone I've ever had. I've had it for over a month now and I still have trouble putting it down.

i have 2..my 1st(white1) works very well...my 2nd works very well however it has a power button issue..it is almost flush to the phone..it works and is responsive but sometimes i have to hit it twice and pull it back out..(the 2nd is blue)

I haven't been able to get the greatest battery life out of it. Seems to drain a few percent while idle. On my EVO LTE that things battery life was ridiculous good! I see some reloading too if I am in an app and then back out; more like a quick flash like a quarter of a second where everything disappears then reappears real fast. LI13 stock rooted is my best battery life so far - 58% right now 14 hrs - 1hr16min screen on. I get some 3G reload too at times where it'll say preparing network while loading a webpage or app etc. Looking forward to LTE cause 3G is pathetic and Jellybean, and Myn's Warm Rom!

Best phone I ever had. Solid and fast. I only miss my slide out keyboard from my Epic.

My best phone ever. No hardware issues at all, great battery life, good response, design, etc. Now just hoping we get JB in timely fashion and should make the device even better.

Personally, can't stand touchwiz, but love Samsung hardware and how much easier it is to root and put stock on. Unlike HTC, Sammy actually releases source. Haven't had any issues with this device, I do like it. I gotta say though, I did like new sense on the evo 4g LTE, but sold the phone due to such horrible multitasking and development being a step behind.
I would end up selling this one if cm10 wasn't out though. Just wouldn't be able to use touchwiz lol. Not to say that touchwiz sucks, I just do not like it, personal preference.

I believe I'll be getting the S3 as I don't need a screen as large as the Note 2 will have and from my comparisons of the original Note vs the S3, I feel that the S3 feels better in the hand. Well, that and I have my Nexus 7 with me everywhere.

I am really enjoying my phone. Best one yet on android. It was funny comparing my s3 to iPhone 5. Oh they try so hard yet cant come close to our coolness. Its like that one cousin or distant family member thats always showing off Lol. Only issue i found when upgrading to latest sprint built, my battery doesn't hold as much. Anyone else have an issue?

I personally am a little let down with my S3. It may be fast but has some minor issues.. My power button gets stuck if I press it at the wrong angle in the lower area and the power button squeaks sometimes. Then some keyboard lag randomly isn't the best. The quadrant scores vary from time to time. But it does work well besides that and I feel is one of the best phones out there. Anyone having some similar issues? and What do you guys think about the s3?
And I'm sorry if there is a post for this already. I'm using the xda app and the search doesn't work well.

Yeah i can say im very satisfied overall, other then 1 minor issue which i can live with by rooting is that u cant transfer any of ure files to ext sd because of that darn ics sammy crap they pulled. Button works great no problems there with getting stuck or any squeaks. as ufor ure quadrant scores, scores arent always accurate plus score level doesnt mean a thing at all nor should it matter, it doesnt tell u anything nor its gonna prove anything....now why do u get random socres, its because ure GS3 is throttling back and forth. why is it doing that, all GS3 phones do that even the GS2 phone did that as well, is something that sammy did in order to prevent the phone from overheating because of the extra power its packing and to give u a better battery life without loosing much of the speed its giving u. now there are ways u can stop the throttling and have full power but i havent found it yet. the lag even if the phone where to throttle u should experience any lag, i havent atleast so yeah u might wanna take it in for inspection. i rooted only because of increase battery life and ofcourse to make my 64 gb ultra mobile class 10 microsd into an internal memory for my phone it worked like a charm. i believe the galaxy S3 is the best thing ever happen since the galaxy S came out.
TAKE THAT APPLE URE PHONE SUCKS. LOL

I am completely satisfied with the Gs3 and have had no problems after rooting it. Had a few minor complaints with the stock ROM but the phone itself was awesome.

agreed, i cant either, if i could marry it i would, i love this phone. make sweet sweet love to it...lolz:laugh:

jellybean with lte perfect. camera in low light isn't the greatest but I'm not complaining daylight pictures more than make up for this minor imperfection Samsung finally nailed it. quad core would have been good but after seeing the comparisons between the international version and ours i think we came out on top a s4 chip faster then tegra3, 2 gigs of ram + Lte. If there's any lag custom roms solve everything.
