Is there a way to get the Nexus 1 live wallpaper working on the HD2? would be pretty awesome espessially on the lockscreen.
I would love these too! Anyone got them?
that would be great.. maybe somebody will make a cab or something because I don't think it will be possible to use the original ones from android. ready to donatehttp
There is a nexus pattern wallpaper. But i also want the Live wallpapers
I dont know why you request from Nexus?
Buy Nexus, and its finish.
So I have been reading the last 6 months about the supposed biggest update for Android ever = Ice Cream Sandwich. I have a few questions.
- What OS # will it be ? 4.0 ?
- What's approx release date ? This fall on the next Nexus device ?
- When will other current phones get Ice Cream ?
- Is it really going to be the mind blowing incredible update they it is ? Completely change Android radically with massive improvements and new ways of doing things ?
There was lots of hype last year before Gingerbread, saying it would be a big update, and change the look of the UI and be totally fresh. But to me its barely any different than Froyo.
Anything else ?

wow, surprised that 71 people have viewed this thread, but none of them have a responded ?
I thought this site was for [H]ard Geeks only ? I am sure one of you knows something more in detail about the next big Android update ?
Ice Cream Sandwich will be Android 4.0.
It will bring a Honeycomb-style UI to ALL android devices - no more phone vs tablet OSes. This also means no more hardware buttons - they're going to be onscreen like Honeycomb.
The first 4.0 Device is expected to be the Nexus Prime, a most-likely Samsung phone with a 4.3ish" screen to be released in the fall of this year.
Some (possibly many) Honeycomb and Gingerbread devices will be upgraded to ICS.
That answer your question?
Most people are as clueless as you are. Not much info is known except it's supposed to be basically GB and HC merged for use on phones and the new Nexus one will be the first to start it off supposedly sometime towards the end of the year.

i hope that there won't be onscreen buttons, i hope there will be gestures..
swiping with two fingers down for home or something. so we dont loose any screen size for the buttons, on screen or not, they waste space on the screen
or maybe something like Zmooth in the market, where you got a small area to make gestures to simulate the buttons
i rly rly hope that they will implement something like this, and not just onscreen buttons..
So the Nexus-Prime will be the debut device for Android 4.0 Ice Cream.
If it is made by Samsung, curious how much better spec'd the Prime will be over the upcoming Galaxy S2 + ?
And I heard a rumor that Google wants to release this new Nexus earlier than the normal Christmas time, but try and compete with iPhone5 with an October launch ? Do you realistically see that happening ?

i definitely hope it will be released around the iphone5 time..
and hey, the nexus one was the better twin of the htc desire, the nexus S is the better twin of the galaxy S. why shouldnt the nexus prime be the better twin of the galaxy SII+?^^
I'm reading some stuff about ICS and i think that this release it will have the following specs optimized:
-Jit
-A new UI that fits on smartphones and tabblets,
-An optimized kernel
-A new way of interatcion with market and the other produtcts of google.
Will it support duel-core smartphones..? And if so, anyone knows how it will do it?
hope we'll get it soon
i wait it so long
One answer to all the questions you asked, no one knows
sent from my bolt
Google has not given any information about ICS. Guess they will hold an event to give all ins and outs just like they did with Honeycomb. Rumours are by the way that there are multiple ICS devices coming out at the same time in fall/winter. (LG, Samsung, HTC, Motorola, Sony)
I hope that the on-screen buttons are not a design requirement for devices running ICS. It would be frustrating to not be able to get CM8 on my Tbolt.
I hadn't heard about the hardware buttons being gone, that's a shame...would it be the soft touch screened like I have on my DInc (which I wouldn't classify as hardware like say, on the Droid X) or just button screens drawn in the actual viewed screen?
So the Dual-core processor isn't a minimum hardware requirement .. thank god !
Title says it all. If you hadn't heard, Google has recently released the SDK for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, giving developers a whole new bag full of goodies to work with and create the future of Android. ICS has a score of new features, and we're all eagerly awaiting the source code release to get some custom ROMS cooking for other devices besides the Galaxy Nexus.
One enterprising developer going by the Youtube handle dr1337md has managed to port ICS to the Nexus One, what is by current standards a pretty outdated device. He's published a video showing off his work, which looks pretty solid. The OS does have some kinks and isn't all that quick on such a dated device, but it is promising to already see the update working on another device. Check out the video and enjoy a little more preview of Ice Cream Sandwich.
What can this mean for our Droid Charges? Hopefully something good will happen from this!

oh gooooooood ICS on the Charge... how wonderful that would be :] i'm a flashaholic, i just love flashing ****. it keeps my phone from ever feeling "dated". I hope ICS really does get ported soon after the source is released!
Soooo cool!

Is there any place we can get the wallpapers from an official phone from maybe the UK?
If you go to the Galaxy Nexus site you'll notice it uses the Chroma Wallpaper but the small circles are gone and it looks more colorful and I have to get my hands on it, the ones I have are ****ty.
I had been looking for a better version too, but I just decided to make one. Obviously not pixel perfect, but I think it looks pretty similar.

So long? You realize the flagship device that ICS is releasing in the US on has yet to be even launched by a carrier, right?
Why on earth would Google release ICS on the Nexus S before the Galaxy Nexus? It makes no business sense. I'm guessing it'll be at least another 2 weeks or more before we see the OTA update. I just cant see Google releasing the update for the Nexus S right at the launch of the phone that's supposed to promote the new system.
Which sucks big time, i do loathe the Evil Empire, but i also remember having the GM and stock update to iOS4.0 on 3GS a week before iPhone 4 came out. It's not like GN only has ICS going for it, but that's the message Google is sending our way. And i obviously will no way in bloody hell be upgrading to GN after this **** up.
Bloody Huawei the first phone with ICS, not Nexus S?!
And another thing, i don't always mind waiting. But i do like to know how long and what the duck for. Another thing Evil Empire does right, tells the date and sticks to it.
I understand a phone can't be cutting edge for years, hell, not even months, but on the other hand i see people walking around with new iPhone 3GS updated to the latest OS as soon as the latest toy is updated. And i can't buy a single bloody app although i'm from a supposedly supported country. Developers say it's Google, Google says it's developers.
I am so switching if i don't get ICS by Christmas :/ and if bloody Email app still drains battery in flight mode on ICS. Like children running a big business :/
"Bloody Huawei the first phone with ICS, not Nexus S?!"
Be interesting to see how well it runs though??
Myself, really happy at the moment with CM7 and hope they include some of the nice, minor, but useful features of that in the CM9 build. So far there have just been enough niggles with the ICS ROM's ive tried so that i'll stick on CM7 for a while.
If I recall correctly, I thought Huawei only released a demo? Also, the Nexus One didn't officially get Gingerbread until 2.3.3 which came out around January/February.
