it will...you doubting it doesnt make it unfortunate..maybe for you. Anyway i dont want to be mean but your post is useless...you are trying to say its not coming by the end of the month when you dont know and your just sharing what your thinking and not helping anyone..based on whats been going on with SE they really cant afford not to release it by the end of the month, on their blog Rikkard says its already done and now its going for testing and approval at different carriers..your comment does not contribute anything to the OP question..sorry but hope u understand my point...

Oh.... In this case, what happends if I install Framework.apk from different phones?

no hard feelings man.....but on there blog Rikard does not state that its finished...he clearly states according to his new blog that this isn't the final release but we are really close to releasing the final candidates into external and operator testing and approval. Which was posted on Oct 14th...which is why I believe all that wont get done in time for there end of Oct release. But yeah, your right, SE cannot afford to delay it again. My post may not help the OP, but I was just commenting on your comment.

Eumh sorry but this thread is not to start a stupid fight over 2.1 AGAIN. Im just asking simple questions and expecting answers from people here. and no fights

Looking through the Post Your Home Screen in the Android section, I'm not sure they are much bigger are they?

yeah they are like 1, 2mm bigger compared to ours. check the new android 2.1 video from the se blog, ull see what im talking about . or go to market check out apps with screenshots and ull see the default bar is larger

Anyways, Ill have to agree with you...I like the status bar now, but I do prefer it slightly bigger...which you will get in 2.1

I agree on this!

Bandwagoner here;
Screens on your site look shopped;
Bandwagoner out;

Screens are not shopped at all....hell you can dl the lite version of the launcher on the android market. The reason we are done yet is because we are integrating amazon into the project, we take requests for apps and will do just about any of them, and we are working on roms for 15 different phones at the moment....its not just a few apps and be done. The main apps we wanted in the beginning have been done for quite some time. And again, you are bashing the ability of some devs.....if you are better than them then put out a product of your own that is better.

Integrating Amazon...how so?
and honestly I really don't think you need our help. If this project is real, I'd love to be a beta tester, but otherwise, no thank you, our developers are busy as it is.

when its done

Well, we have to consider many things.
First and most importantly, Google just acquired Motorola's mobile phones division for $12.5 billion. That means that they are gonna be a major hardware manufacturer and the phones that they make will probably be able to handle Android better than the rest of the competition.
Also, don't forget that 2011 is the year of the rabbit. The rabbit is a swift little creature and it doesn't like to get caught.
If we compare cyanogemod to the rabbit, and then compare that to google's purchase of Moto's mobile division, then we can clearly see that there's no connection between any of these things.
So long story short, yes, we still don't know. We're all just sitting tight.

sad part is once they get cm7 they will want something else lol

I'm hoping for a MIUI released right after that

That does seem to be the way the world works these days, right? I rofl at people with a sense of entitlement.
Honestly, does it really even matter right now when CM7 will be released? Seemingly every day our wonderful developers are releasing new ROM's. Pick one, love it, and live with it. Or pick a few and love them!

Very understandable. In the time I've been with this forum, I've seen a lot of that going on and it's ridiculous. Internet browsers should pop up a notice saying "Don't forget the search feature!" when somebody opens a new tab or window lol
I'd hate to see you go, also. It would be a loss for us!

Well, I'm not a noob. And what I post or say is well, none of your business. You're not a moderator, and until you become one (which I hope I never come to that day), then you can tell me what to do or not.
This just has become ridiculous.
Also, I can surely see myself "QUOTING" someone, in that case, being this a public discussion is true, you can comment here, but not interfere in my quote.
I surely don't need to give you a lesson in public nor private speech.

Dual boot Nexus 5 Android / Windows 8.x

Not sure of this is the right spot to ask this question. OK so here is the deal. My employer wants us to support Windows Phone 8.x. Well kind of difficult when you don't own one. Instead of them buying one for us, instead we have to rely on a stupid desktop emulator from Microsoft. Since MS has finally laxed the rules on what hardware it can be installed on, I was wondering if a Dev would be interested in making one that dual boots on my Nexus 5.

Even on the tabs with keyboard (eg : Transformer Prime) it wasn't possible to make windows 8 runnable.
There's no acces to the sources, so no chances to have the good drivers, etc. So, no, impossible :/

2 reasons why you won't see a windows ROM, and definitely not on xda....
1. If it were possible, I'm sure it would have be done already.
2. It would be pirated obviously.... Aka warez. A no no on XDA.

Not to really to stay Off Topic here... But @rootSU keep up the great work! :good: I personally appreciate your contributions and you still continue to be a staple in the xda community and have done a lot to benefit many of the fellow members and device forums. I've learned quite a bit from many of your stickies and general post and for that I Thank you!!
As you said... "You need to do what's best for you and by all means be yourself".
Edit:
To the topic at hand... I personally don't think that there will be any new development in porting or dual booting WP8 onto android, as WP8 is closed source. I think the best bet if you want android and windows to dual boot on a device it to look into the all mighty HTC HD2. Which lately you can find on swapa, eBay, Craig's list and etc... For an actually pretty darn recent price these days. I've seen a couple going from around $80 - $120 and they are in decent shape. I have actually consider getting another one just to tinker around with again.. It is a cool and fun device.
