Facebook group?

Yes or No?
i think it would be great to be able to have a picture of the rom devs and people on here in general so we dont feel like we are talking to robots.
and im never on facebook but it would be a good to get the name xda out to people who are on the bar between android and something else. 99% of people i tell about xda have no idea what im talking about
anyways just thought. lets hear what everyone else thinks.

not my thing...

If people here were aware of how fat and ugly I am, no one would ever respond to my posts/questions!

create a page and link me up, i'll add

I'll join 10chars

TOO many creepo trolls on here to start handing out identities, something somepeople proved when they bashes that silvermeshes guy. might be a good idea for the upper heiarchy(sp?) devs tho. always wondered what damages name was lol

I made one....
I know I would join, and I am quite sure a few others would join....so we shall see who wants in, and who doesn't

cool, joined

Its really sad that i forbid myself from ever having a myspace or a facebook, but i just signed up for the site thing....damn xda

it's a good idea, but we need a cdma hero group. not just a xda group.
just my two cents

I think this is a good idea. All members should be allowed to join in though. From the people who don't code at all. To the beginners and experts. A wide variety is always a good thing

Of course if you're going THAT far with it you might as well just...umm....post on xda...?

Until someone posts a comment about how they can't boot into recovery...
Then suddenly half the people will jump on his ass for being a n00b then the other half will get annoyed because it will clutter the page

Facebook is lame.
That's SO funny you mention this! I actually just found this really cool online site where you can totally hook up with other developers and HTC Hero owners and discuss ROMs, fixes, themes etc... you can even send private messages and post pictures!
Check it out!!

i'm down. plus some more characters for fun

i joined as well ( Rico ) ..

I thought they said they have not got it approved yet from Apple. That is why they probably started iPhone first, the approval process could take months.

Wow nowhere in that response does it say that it is coming at all, just says they are continuing to develop, that kinda sucks since we know it is on the myTouch HD, well, I had messenger installed and on auto update but after reading that letter I guess I am gonna uninstall and free up some space It just drives me nuts that we have one of the most capable handsets on the market and we can't get a damn phone to comp. video chat app, that is like the LAST thing that I want my Evo to do, C'est la vie

[Q] Tiny Wings

Tried the game "Tiny Wings" on a friends iPhone, absolutely loved it. As I sadly found out though, the developer has no plans to port it over to Android in the near future. Therfore I was wondering if any of you guys would be able to make this happen, as I know a lot of you know how to develop stuff, and are ectremely talented.
Hope you can make this happen

bump!!!!!

Bump for great justice.

Haha, word! You can see me and him flaming at eachother. Especially lol when he says that appstore is more profitable, even when i link him to an article where it says that market is more profitable for developers during the first weeks of the game If you look at his account, you can see that he (vastedcouth) spends all of his time on youtube hating on android, what a tool)

[APP REQUEST] Launching record label, looking to old friends for support!

Hey guys! It's been a long while, for some reason my post count is greatly reduced, but oh well, all you old timers probably remember me, lol.
Anyway, so here's the deal, I'm launching my record label, Syko Records, and I've been trying to think of creative ways to dominate the industry, being a no-name-up-and-comer I have to be innovative. Of course, I thought of all my genius pals here at XDA, and hope that maybe someone would be interested in volunteering their time for the cause.
I don't have any monetary compensation, but I'm sure we can work out something that benefits you for your time!
If anyone is interested in being a part of the next big movement in music, please let me know and lets get started!
Peace!
Ken

Oh come on, I know someone wants a chance to work with an indie record label! I hoped there would have been a better response!

LG's Kenneth Hong about 3d phones: We want to keep pushing

Kenneth Hong, global director of corporate communications for LG, talked about O3D and 3D phones on The Guardian (link to interview)
He says that O3D sold a million phones and he's quite content with that. LG wants to keep focussing on 3D and 3D phones are a part of that. They believe glasses less 3D TV is the future and want to enlarge their knowledge on that technique by being the frontrunner in the 3D phone market. (apparently big sales isn't their reason, at least for now)
Complete text on what he said about 3D phones and O3D (Max):
What happened with the Optimus 3D phone?
KH: Still going. We actually introduced a part two this year [Optimus 3D Max]. Usually when you develop a sequel that means you're happy with the first one. But you see a need to keep developing it. That's similar to what I just said. 3D may not be our bread and butter, in phones, but it's a huge innovation driver. Go back to Apple, the Newton. They were the first company to have the tablet. And now who's the leader in tablets?
So it doesn't matter if nobody buys it right now because it's a driver for innovation down the road?
KH: There are people who are going to have this advantage just having been in this field for the future. That's kind of how we see 3D. It may not be mainstream today, but it will be. We're betting the entire TV division on it.
But part of that, we're carrying over and trying to leverage that knowledge over on the phones. And right now, as far as I know, we're the only company in the world that has two 3D phones on the market. One of our competitors tried it [HTC with the Evo 3D, which went on sale in June 2011], but I guess they didn't like the outcome, because they haven't said anything else about it this year. [The Evo 3D was discontinued in April 2012.]
We want to keep pushing. We sold a million 3D version ones. To us that's good enough. There's a million people who were interested; we're going to keep building on that number. People think it didn't sell very well – it was never meant to. It was a flagship in glasses-free 3D. It's an innovation driver for the future of 3D, which we already have assumed will not require glasses. How do you develop that no-glasses technology unless you're playing around with it at a smaller size?

Pretty cool to hear because I love the 3D personally, I just wish they offered better support

Good News alright. O3D was a flagship, followed by a sequel 3DMAX. LG wants it continued. All fine, but where is ICS? where is the ICS? Jelly Beans is already out, so ICS is passe? Or do we get the Jelly Bean directly?
Do we get anything at all? no comments?

Dude, we already have a thread for ICS and Jellybean. - [ALL ICS / JELLYBEAN] Related Topics / Requests / Questions
This topic isn't about either one of them. It's about Pushing 3D Phones and Innovation.
Don't post about ICS or Jellybean in here.

I was also very happy to read it!
There are problems with the O3D, but the 3D isn't one of these problems! It's as a matter of fact a great feature. Most of all the camera!
Shooting private 3D stuff really adds a lot to vacation pictures/movies, etc.!
I truly hope that LG will continue to innovate and bring out a good Full HD 3D phone out next time with enough RAM and CPU to pull of the job.
Too bad that for some reasons the 3D haters seem to win the internet debate. Not b/c of knowledge but just b/c the masses are conservatives.

The bolded question should be sufficient.
Please tell me, where in this sentence does it talk about innovation or pushing 3D phones?
If it isn't in the interview, please don't insert it in the topic at hand.

Jeeez..... talk about getting you knickers in a twist. Looks like EVERYBODY is a moderator in this thread!

It would be some progress
...if the prices would go low. Then it would be a hit. Hardware is good - not great, but good, considerind that for the same hardware specs, no 3D, cost around the same price or at least 75% on other brands.
Is the price of 3D option that is killing the product and the fact that people are not so confident in a brand that is more for innovation (cause no one can't deny the "first time" products that LG is producing) than for making profit, therefor famous brands - and I quote here Apple and Samsung.
For me those two brands can stay where they are now. I love my eLGy as I would love any other brand that gives me problems, headaches to deal with. Life's Good when you're challenged.
PS: in same place, same spot a friend's iPhone can't hook up the WiFi network. My eLGy does it simple.

Even if The dark Lestat isn't tagged with "moderator" that doesn't mean that he can't moderate a discussion that certainly is going off topic or is just adding useless information. Ok?
The man is giving ROMs and help to the people like you in order to have your 3D phone better. So, just show some respect.

Shut Up - I don't use any ROMS other than the official stock ones, thank you. Maybe the respect should be given to the moderators and admin, to leave them to do their jobs.

Yes but this phone was just a gateway to test the 3d waters they need a device with better hardware to build on and 3d Max isn't really it. They need to compete with Samsung in terms of hardware. The o3d has good hardware but could be better to keep up.

Because LG is taking one step at a time. And Samsung is carrying a battle against iFone so not interested in 3D. And maybe is better this way. LG, from "who's LG?" in TV sets became the first one to have certified 2D and 3D THX TV set (and I mean the PX950 series - I own the 55PX950N TV set - gorgeous). So the 3D thing is really important to LG. I bet my pants on that the first full colored, HiDef holographic device will be eLGy.
