My question is whether the software and roms developed for other phones, particularly the HTC magic, will work on other Android platforms such as the SE Xperia.
Many thanks to everyone here. I'm new around here, but the knowledge and skills at work here are fantastic.

Sony Experia X2

Hey guys
are HTC making this like the X1?
Cheers
No.
It's to be manfactured by foxconn.
Chexk the dedicated xperia section, there is a whole thread on the x2 pictures and all.
Cheers guys! If its not made by HTC then I might consider it
LOL
Why you said that?
Are you tired of HTC?
All of the four HTC devices i've owned have needed warranty repairs - and i don't mistreat my devices. In my experience, the build quality is sh*&.
Shame to hear that
On my experience (Only 2 HTC devices) since 2005 and 2006
I have never any problem with my Uni or S621, perhaps I was lucky then...

Motorola Cliq development on XDA?

I noticed a theme that XDA primarily does HTC phones. I remember reading a while back that X brand was releasing and Android phone but would not be supported on XDA. So my question is, will this phone get it's own section on XDA to give central place for devs to do work at?
Thanks! (hope I posted in right section)
Most likely not. It's not a HTC phone like you stated. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 was designed by HTC, thats why it has a home here. The new Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 and X3(Android) weren't design by HTC to my knowledge. So the X2 and X3 might have a home here cause of the X1 users. Or might not.
So, do you all know of where the development for that might be going on?
that's what I was wondering. No hardcore dev's like on XDA is a definite no buy!

Slightly offtopic but...
The X1 had a similar resemblance to the Touch Pro which all in all was a similar phone.
I don't know if this has been mentioned on this before but the X3 has a real striking resemblance to the Touch HD, maybe it is designed by HTC and will be released at a similar time a the Touch HD 2 which will also like the X3 run android (rumored but wouldnt be suprised).
Cliq-Development.com
Cliq-Development.com is a bunk site. couple of guys pissing and moaning about money. I really wanted to get a cliq as the nexus one doesn't have a keyboard and my G1 is falling apart lol.
now there is a page for the motorola droid but not the cliq.... was the motorola droid designed by HTC...? i dont think so...

I'm new to XDA, but will post information about the Motorola Cliq device as I develop and receive information. I think if we talk/chat more about the cliq on this site developers will be willing to copy or cross post and information share(abiding by XDA rules of course) to a goal of obtaining its own thread. Again, just by looking at XDA there is not a lot of support for this device.

Anything ever become of this 'issue'?

Question about the phones on this forum.

I have always loved this forum and always will.
i used to have windows mobile phones and i learned a lot here.
the i switched to android
and again, with my HTC magic i could rely on XDA..
Now i have a little question.
I know that there have been discussions about why the Motorola droid/milestone don't get their own section.
and i understand why.
only HTC made phone right?
and i know this can be confusing sometimes.
i owned the SEX1, and its Sony, but made by HTC.
But now i am seeing:
Acer F1: neoTouch S200
Samsung Omnia II: i8000, i920, B7610, B7620
Toshiba Tsunagi: TG01
Acer A1: Liquid S100
LG Monaco: eXpo GW820
Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10
As far as i knew, most of the company's above made their own phones.
or are you guys going to tell me that all of the above are HTC made???????
You should try here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616206
I guess based on requests they might add new subforums for other devices than HTC.

Is it likely for the Xperia Z5 to get a big dev community?

Hello Folks,
I ordered my Z5 today and I'm pretty excited about it. I come from HTC One m7 which had a wonderful, very active, developer community with all sorts of roms and customisations. I just checked the Z3 section of the forum and things look a bit deserted out there... so what do you think?
cheerz
There will be a few custom roms eventually but nothing like M7. HTC has a robust group of developers and their devices are easier to work with. Sony devices lose some camera functionality and drm keys when bootloader unlocked so that discourages development slightly.

Custom Roms For Sony Xperia XZs (SOV35)?

Hi tech wizards of the sony world,
I'm curious if there is by any chance, a custom rom for the Sony XZs (SOV35) version. I did some snooping around in the custom rom/kernel section but didn't find anything eye catching to my interest (just wanted a compact version of android). I hope there are some answers around here .
