That... looks... AMAZING

For real?
TBH, none of the submissions really turned my crank...

Certainly an improvement over the goofy skateboarding Andy.

I like it... Got tired of the skating android look.

It looks like an alien who just got saved from being tortured in a prison camp. I liked submissions 5, 32 , 43

Much better than the skateboarding android. It looked way too childish. When I ran cm on my vibrant, I would get annoyed with that skateboarding fool.

What number won?

Ehh, a downgrade if you ask me.
Should call the new one (on the right) "CyanogenBob".
The circle in his shirt should also include the usual Cyanogen arrow.

I always liked the skateboarding Andy....ever since fastboot on my g1. Don't care for the new look but unless I get a nexus it don't really matter. I've been touch wizd the last two years or so.

I, too, am very disappointed in the choice. The new 'mascot' is lame. I liked the skateboarding andy and have it as my wallpaper.
Hopefully the redesign CM has asked for will make it better. I'm sure I will get used to it in no time, though.

way worse
keep the skateboarding android, that has personality, this is just garbage

That's terrible!!! wtf

Looks like they made a few revisions too it... still not a huge fan but does look a bit better.

Do. Not. Like. Looks like it belongs on the door of a unisex truckstop restroom...

So what was wrong with the old logo....and who voted on these? I liked that the old one was still an Android "droid" just with a the appropriate color and the skateboard definitely says west coast.
The new one, although a nice design (the original submission not CM final modification which looks worse), doesn't fit in my opinion....it looks too much like an alien.
Thought these were way better if there had to be a change:
4, 6, 12, 13, 27, 95

This launcher is pretty neat. But miui sgs made it obsolete on our phones. It looks fairly similar but performs pretty bad right now.

Link doesn't work. I had that SPB Home on my Tilt 2 and liked it. Very customizable, but it was a resource hog, so I stopped using it.
Yea, signed up for the beta testing a couple months ago and used it for awhile. Pretty stable and has good looks and no lag really.

If that's what you're running than that's a really old version. The version they sent allows you to set 4 shortcuts in the dock and 1 for the app drawer instead of the 2
It's a pretty neat and fast launcher except for a few things that may be just me:
-Look is a bit meh
-Can't place icons where you want them to (all gravitate from top to bottom, left to right)
-reeeeallly high memory usage compared to others (approx. 40-60mb, leaves some games running sluggish)
-Can't use live wallpapers (I would at least like the option to)
It's cool and different, but always find myself going back to even the stock launcher or ADW EX
I think I got the beta 5 back in December or January, but I haven't really used it since then. I just reinstalled it real quick so I could post some screens.

While I agree it runs a little slow the last time i used it. I dont know about MIUI making anything obsolete as it looks like a dated Iphone, but to each their own

Mind heading over to the infuse development forums and providing a system dump to us AT&T users. It will greatly help the Custom ROM development on your shiny new Infuse and make it a better experience for everyone
That was my plan but my boss ran out with the only working demo.. gotta wait to get my own lol

I would love to get my hands on the infuse, from what I've read its an amazingly well built phone with the power to back up the looks and I've been a huge samsung fan since the first galaxy phones came out. I definitely will have to get one for dev/personal use when my finances allow, and also the wife....lol
it's realy big

Lol yeah it is huge the icons on it are bigger than some of my widgets on my cappy and I've seen portable dvd players with less screen. It truly is a monster of a phone, but in a good way, not like the motorola bricks of the 80's that you had no hope of fitting in even a large coat pocket, they were some sturdy pieces of tech though I have one that I held onto that's been thrown, sat on, coffee spilled on, the list goes on and it still powers on and holds a charge and had 0 cracks anywhere on it, well the last time I had it out anyways, its been a lil while and after moving its hard to say.

Yooooo. Samsung quality and the keyboard looks great, compared to this rather garbage keyboard we got stuck with. Thoughts?
Specs aren't nearly as good though. Sadly, I don't think I'd even recommend this for my wife come August when she can get a new phone.

If it's got an S4, I personally would not care about the downgrade in camera. I don't use a camera that much, so it wouldn't be much of a loss to me. I can see why others would be annoyed though, haha.

Wth we got some awesome keyboard I love this keyboard I rate it better than the G2 which was also great, I hate the samsung epic keyboard and this one looks about the same -_-
The best keyboard IMO tho was the sidekick 2, till this day I haven't found a better one on any other phone. the one that was actually about the same in quality was the htc pro 2 keyboard which was pretty awesome but buttons were a little to big.

The Sidekick slide has an epic Keyboard Samsung has no ground in the QWERTY world. If this an Epic 4G for T-Mobile, sign me up. But if it's just one of there cheap boost mobile QWERTYS. I'll stay with my myTouch, which I'm considering giving up once the new Jellybean QWERTY comes out.

[Boot Animation] Nexus 7 Jellybean 4.1

Weird. I downloaded the "official" jellybean boot animation from a Verge article (I think), and it looks nothing like that. It "looks" like an official one as well, in that it's very similar in form and function to the previous official Honeycomb and ICS animations.
Here's a pic of the one I'm talking about running on my Fire:

Oh, okay..that makes sense then.
But I wish Google would just be consistent. If they just did one, it would make the suspense that builds up wondering what the new one's gonna look like stronger and it would keep pressure on the team that designs it to make it as awesome as they can each Android version. With 2 (or more), they can kinda half-ass them because carriers would have a choice. I look forward to the Easter Egg each release: maybe it's because there's only just one, and it has been getting better and better. (On that note, did everyone see the hidden Kandy cane in the Jellybean Easteregg?)

WTF is that thing?
I've been searching for quite a while yet can't find anything stating what exactly the negative space is supposed to be. Looks to me like a jellybean and the Play symbol...?

Some random 3D boot animations.

Some cool 3D boot animations I made from some random gifs that I found (stole) on the interwebnets ...

Unlike the preview images above, these animate smoothly and look pretty nice. I'm dumb when it comes to posting things to the forums, so whatever.
Just download, rename the zip to bootanimation.zip and put it in /system/media on your device.
Creepy but I like

The hands and feet one. Seeing them gave me the weirdest and kinda scariest dream I've ever had. It involved a creature made up of grafted arms and legs and like a tremor face. It was terrible. And it was in the bottom of an old functioning prison where people were fed to it. Ditto....
