This is it guys... let the mobile browser wars begin!!
Access (remember!!) who once had the all popular netfront 3.3 browser for WinMo platform from the PPC2003 days. They even released a beta of 3.4 which from some strange reason never saw the light of the day out of beta and even in beta stage went in and out of their download section. They had a teaser flow-chart thingy posted on their site for I believe a year now, of the 3.5 version and its much promised post iphone-rumble look.
Well.. its just been released. Read all about it here at downloadsquad.com and they have also posted a youtube video. Looks not bad at all.
I guess Opera getting all the cuddles and love for quite sometime was just too much for these guys and they finally woke up. Good for us, the ever hungry, world of Duttythroy/Helmi/Schrap/Slither(Aussie dude.. citizens. We deserve it all.... a kick-in-ya-nu** iPhone owners.

I'm not you and you're not me!
Have you tried it yet? I'm still using 3.3 and can hardly wait!

You can dl it too here
Its a basic registration process with really stupid (in my opinion) questions asked which you can answer likewise and then it'll give you the download button for the cab.
check it out.
Initial impressions.. I can't wait to use both Skyfire (??who comes up with these names??) and Opera 9 browsers as this one has the smooth "flick" feature of the iPhone that both of the above unreleased ones offer as well.
So, its just gonna be which one implements it the best.
Its sad to say though after checking this one out that looking at the screenshots of the long long awaited firefox version, it looks already dated.
Oh well..
Text rendition is pretty much the same as 3.3 and 3.4 which is a little disappointing especially when one gets used to the eye-candy that Opera 8.65 offers with its silk smooth text rendition.
Back to the "flick" action, its super sensitive though. You just have to lightly touch the screen with the tip of your nail and this thing just runs for its life.. which is a good thing. There is a little lag thats coming up here and there.... but then again, its the very very first beta so I can't complain there.
will post more as I play with it more... hope some more ppl try it out soon.

hi guys thinkin of a new theme once i finish buuf. what do you guys think of a super mario theme? here is a lil preview
I am ALL for this if you make it...though I prob won't use it, it'd be great to have the option.
Make it!
All my base are belong to you!
Dang, there goes my next theme idea lol
Nice
Would like to see something with Yoshi too.
I love me some Yoshi. Even the name is cool
Go through with it for sure, Looks good!
I am actually working on a mario bros theme too, but a different approach.
nice, i was thinking on using those icons for a mario based theme
good icons made by DannySP @ deviantART
great icons.
here is his link for reps and for those interested
DannySP
Dude, you are my fav theme creator! Love this one, all for it...
Yea, keep it up!! How about if you put DK as well?? That would be really cool!!!
It is already starting to look good, go for it
2 week topic res is needed here....
Maybe if we bump this enough, he will make it...
"If you bump it, the theme will come."
i love it and i will wait pls makw this thx
Looks promising - I'd use it if you make it.
I like the idea just not sure I will ever switch from Buuf.
As for a suggestion, use all the different Nintendo characters, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, DK etc
omg let this thread die already! jk i honestly don't know if i'll ever get around to this one. Buuf is taking forever. a lot longer than expected. By the time I'm done, who knows..i might wanna try something else. we'll just see when that day comes 8)
I approve of this theme!
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9858 <- my firefox theme.
Yes definitely keep goin with this theme. One suggestion, make the pull up tab that lil mushroom once you really get into making it.
: Great theme
yo dudes. i'm creating my first theme. turns out to be a zombie one. thought it would be a cool idea. brains....pistols....chainsaws....brains. i posted a screenshot of the concept i have as of now. i would say it's probably half completed. i'm curious to get some feedback or if you have any ideas, please share them. even if i just use one, i'd be worth it. i will be posting the update.zip once its perfect.
lol this is awesome, I love zombies!
Dude!!! I want it sooo bad!
Looks good so far!
AWESOME!!
That looks sweet! I would say make the notification bar intestine. That would look sick!
**speoples20**
haha that is a great idea with the intestine notif bar. I haven't tried editing any .9 files yet, but I did see the "how to" thread so I am going to try that.
looks cool i hope the dial pad is also customized
gotta love zombies...
Left 4 Dead anyone? =D
Mabie make the battery filled with blood and drain out as if the battery was broken according to the battery life.
**ccranford11**
thats an awesome idea with the battery i'll definitely try that
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.

That's the video
I like it can't wait to try it out it looks pretty neat

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
