For me a huge amount of ram, internal storage, a battery that can last for a week, water-proof and unbreakable. And have customizable rom that can mimic any rom devices you want (i.e. sony, samsung, miui, CM or even iOS). (it's not hard to dream... :fingers-crossed

the restricted ability to connect to a network. Apple has the multipeer connectivity feature which can essentially allow for worldwide connection almost free of cost. (I haven't read into it much so I may be very wrong). If internet connection was allowed such as the WiFi Freedom Tower during the Occupy movements. I'm sure this is far from likely to happen but it has been done small scale already.

The Whole Device

Thanks for your responses.
Please keep em' coming

I will improve the way of creating new software for our mobiles!
Luck with you dissertation! I have just written one!

Android on Bookeen-Cybook Odyssey (eBook Reader)?

Hello everyone, I know this is a long shot but: is anyone interested in porting Android to this excellent eBook Reader?
Device description is here: http://www.bookeen.com/en/cybook/odyssey
It is basically a Nook Touch Simple/Sony PRS T1 like device that features a very fast e-Ink display (amazingly fast for an e-Ink) and should support some tablet like use (browsing the web, reading a RSS feed) quite well. You can see here and here what HSIS (High Speed Ink System) can do.
Stock version is using a Linux 2.6.31 based OS (doesn't specify what flavor)
From the little I know the main problems with porting a Android whould be:
- possible locked bootloader on the Cybook Odyssey -> no way to know without the device
- supported chipset -> an ARM A8 based chipset is listed
- display drivers -> maybe those from regular pearl e-Ink can be used?
- wi-fi drivers -> again, depends on the chipset
I'm out of my league (php, web stuff) here but I plan to buy the device next month if there's hope for it
Ideas?
Hi!
I would point out, before getting your hopes up on the porting, the fact that you asked just one day after the launch of the device, makes one think that you're thoughts are audaciously early. So unless some xda-developers are Bokeen insiders and, ahem, unbound by their job to work on this matter, either waiting or is the thing to do. Or, ahem, , learning how to port?
The chances I see for this port to happen are small (but than again still possible). Perhaps we could see if the linux running it might offer more flexibility and run apps directly (?). Porting would would have it's obvious advantages ... an Android with it's screen technology superior to any current eInk readers, except the Mirasol powered ones perhaps (those are limited to Korea for now) would we awesome.

Is there any news on debugging and or development possibilities on that platform? I have seen the gpl'ed linux source released at bookeen's site.
I have yet not found any pictures of a disassembled device and do not know if customized firmware updates are possible.
Would very much appreciate any news on that topic!

I know that internally some version of android ran on the device, but it's really not worth to do this. Android is absolutely not suited for such device and screen.
To install personalised linux/software, first crack the update format, then the device will be open to you...

New Android handheld gaming console

The Yinlips YDP-G18 is probably the cheapest Android device you can find with dedicated game controls. It would be cool if someone could cook up an updated English language ROM for it.
Official site:
http://www.yinlips.com/en/productdetail.asp?ID=220
Where to buy:
http://www.isharegifts.com/yinlips-android-game-console-wifi-tablet-mp4-p-1573.html
Review (with lots of photos):
http://translate.google.com/transla...u=http://www.imp3.net/1/show.php?itemid=32282
Video showing it emulate N64 and PSX games:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00C6RT-HawU
Hello,
This is a very promising console, we are currently testing and we must admit that this console is doing pretty well ... It's just a few thoughtful developers to take advantage of the machine maximum.
Go on google and write "CAANOO forumactif" to see the test!
The root is effective and the market is available.
Sorry for my poor english, i'm french
They already rooted it and installed android market on it. IMHO, it should get its own section. Having stripped down froyo or gb roms on it could further improve performance and battery life.
If I had the coin, I'd buy it right away. It's priced at $125 with free shipping. And it's the projection of my most beautiful dreams. Except for the two cameras it has.
It's actually a good product that can have enormous potential. Its biggest flaw is its current autonomy should be 3 hours with Wi-Fi enabled.
The screen is resistive, but responds well. It allows running N64 and PSX games fairly easily and without overclock.
I would love to also see a section for Android handheld and quickly see the arrival of Roms Customs and modified kernels.
For those who want to take the tests, the French member of the community are being Caanoo get them to see what she has in the stomach. I'm happy to keep you informed of the various tests that we will achieve.
I'm also getting one of these, looks promising with some tweaks or a new custom rom will be much better
Only 3 hr battery life? You'd think they'd be able to get more in there. But cool concept nonetheless.
Those who want to see the handheld running you can go see the videos that were made ​​by @ BAFelton at: Sorry but i can't link URL, so Go on Youtube and search BAFelton61
It gives a good idea of ​​what is possible.
Also, @ qbertaddict also examines the machine
Will get back to you almost certainly after the new year. Ordered it yesterday and they announced 15-20 business days until arrival
Yinlips has announced the update 2.3 (gingerbread) on the G18. This is good news to know that there is a follow-up from the manufacturer!
k0en, here too ?
Yeah i'm follow up this awesome device too, and still check what is possible to do with .... Christmas is coming...
Why not a CyanogenMod ? lol

From what I can see in the videos, it's Chinese by default but can be changed to English. Since it's an Android device, in theory you would eventually be able to cook custom roms for this thing.
This is a steal, even though the touchscreen is resistive the specs are very good.
My interests are in the details, though: Does the analog stick work as a mouse in android? How is the screen quality with brightness and color? How easily can ROMs be customized?
If these things met with satisfaction I would buy today.

Is it Possible to Import Android to SE P1i ??

hi devs
i am a owner of Sonyericsson P1i, i have had this phone for 4 years, and its difficult for me to change it to another phone the only problem which i have had with this phone is the message application which is not "Threaded View".
i know it sounds crazy but is there any chance to install android on it? that would be greate
thaaaaaaaaaaaaanx
I do not think soo.
i guessed so, is it because its not capacitive touch screen? or because of the CPU and RAM ?
What os? And capacitive or resistive it doesn't matter android has some resistive tablets out there.

[Q] Is infrared port present in the tab 7.7 P6800?

I'm searching to buy online this awesome tab because it is not available here in Europe yet.
In the specifications when it was announced the infrared port was described and shown on the pictures on the right side of the tablet.
Today I cannot see anymore this specification and I've read that it would be present only on the European version.
Is it correct? Anybody knows more bout this question?
Thanks!

The HK model I'm holding in my hands does not have IR.

For some reason Samsung removed this port. It could have something to do
with performance issues or cost, your guess is as good as mine.

The unit shown in the video above is a pre-production unit. Notice how the box and packaging is not the retail packaging? Also, the accessories included are totally different. The retail version does not include a Bluetooth earpiece, and the included earphones are white, not black.
Also, the specs listed on GSM Arena are not up-to-date, and are based on pre-production specifications.
Again, the retail production version of the 7.7 does NOT include IR. Also, even if you somehow managed to get your hands on one with IR, chances are that it will not get any software updates, and you'll be left with orphaned hardware. Even if the official firmware updates are compatible with the IR 7.7, chances are that the IR functionality will be disabled anyway, so yeah...
Honestly, I find the IR to be kinda pointless anyway. There are a lot of other ways to get your tablet to do exactly the same things as having IR on it.
Mine is from Thailand and doesn't have an IR port. Silly thing is, at the mobile expo the ones on display had IR, but the ones you buy don't..Bit annoying what Samsung do with all the different versions.

It is probably as you say: they removed this connection in the production phase and was present only in the prototype.
Am I the only one that thinks that the IR is just a useless addon?
Are you that lazy to pickup the real remote controller and instead spend hours to setup your tab to control your home entertainment devices with your tab?
If you have so many devices why not buy a Logitech remote? But just whine here missing the IR port...
And IR to transfer data is also crap..

I'm fully agree with you, but not doing like the iphone owners who say that the bluetooth transfer is old and useless!
Certainly I'm not crying for lack of irda port.....
I purchased mine from Dubai a couple of weeks ago. Only model available was 3g 16Gb, no IR.
There was a commercial Samsung booth in the mall displaying a 7.7 with IR.
The lady told me this specific model was not available for sale and did not know if this model would ever been sold.
Tried a trade but no go...

Agreed, but my LCD TV and sound system are Samsung.
Integration would be a nice gadget, although IR sounds a tad out of time.

Right! I use often the Galaxy Remote App on my Tab7 and Note but with the wifi connection under Network. It is very usefull for the internet navigation on my Samsung LCD TV!
The irda would be only a more feature...... never mind!
Yes, wifi on both TV and sound system makes this IR thing kind of useless.
It could be useful if you wanted to transfer a picture or something to another user's unit and if they only both have wifi version, not currently near wifi hotspot, and therefore cannot e-mail.

if both users have a decent samsung device they can use Kies. If they're not use, bleutooth...
As we have passed the 2000 era more than 10 years, bluetooth is pretty the standard in all devices as like a color screen.
Bluetooth, no need to aim your device to each other, faster data transfer and more stable.
But being faster it still takes "time" to beam over a high resolution picture.
If the target device only has irda (and probably a COM port) maybe it's time to dump that outdated piece of technology.
The more tech bits, the more to play around with, so I would of quite liked to of had the IR. Not for file transfer though lol. Don't think it was intended for that purpose this time around. Just for remote features.

Never mind Bluetooth, if both devices are Samsung, have you ever tried WiFi Direct? Holy $H!7!! I've used it between my GS2 and my Note, and it's ridiculously fast!
Besides, the IR blaster (assuming it's the same as on the 7 Plus) isn't capable of data transfer anyway; it's just a 1-way transmitter like on any remote control.
my opinion, to control TV, home theater, hi fi, home automation system, directly from the tablet without having to use other remotes would be a good thing.

Just received mine today
Hi davidayling,
I just received mine today (from: hongkongeek[dot].com since they promised to refund customs and VAT); excellent and quick service btw!
This is the first time I bought one of these china phones; encouraged by the many and mostly positive reports...
About the Phone:
+ To me it does look and feel just like the high quality brand phones
+ NOT A SINGLE CHINA APP!!! Just vanilla 4.2.1 - very good performance; smooth animations, transitions
+ 3800 mah battery - though I'm not sure if it really will deliver that much energy - but it says 3.800 on the label at least
+ Display (likely really an IPS): bright (even outside), wide viewing angle - very close to the front glass; comes very close to Samsung S3 amoled
+ 2nd battery included; additional flip cover included
+ Pen looks like a real S-Pen - no softtip; anyway the capacitative finger-touch recognition is not stopped when using the pen; so that can cause inconvenience when using it
+ GREAT (!) web browsing experience: 5,7" & good performance with JS-rich web-apps (like groupware web-clients)
+ Dual-SIM (with dual standby); however just one line can be used at the same time; and only one is WCDMA capable.
+ Worked on two carrier networks instantly
- no compass; well my last phone had one; I'm not sure if I really need one
- 220g = 170g phone + 50g battery - it's not a feather...
I am actually planning to flash CWM & root it; also I haven't tried out the GPS yet - So I'll be back regarding this later.
Many greet's from the hights of the austrian alps!

Hi Guys,
I found this thread and I was wondering if anyone can answe my question: has the s-pen any functionality like the original note2? I mean, something like opening the quick-notes on double tap or something like that? If not, does it have any functionality at all?
Thanks
Hi, the pen has no specific functionality; it's basically useful for exact "clicking" in the browser for example, or drawing sketches...

Hi everyone,
Here are some Pictures of the camera to see it's quality... took them in the 12mpix mode - camera and gallery work very quickly even with pics that large... not sure if the image size is reduced by the forum software.
And yes...
... we still have snow on the mountains, the strawberries are still green and my chihuahua enjoys the sun...
Also I can report that the battery is really as strong as expected, after 3 cycles of complete drain and recharging the indicator works correctly. Even when using it extensively (frequent webbrowsing, phonecalls of a regular business day) it reliably carries me through the day... the weekend left me with 25 % after two days. Standy with wlan on does not consume considerably much... great!
As allready said, it's easily rootable. Also I'm using the apex-launcher so I could increase the number of icons on the homescreens to 5x8, increase the number of screens to 9... it's a pleasure!

i have the star n9599 since few days. It works great, also bluetooth and usb service is better for me than galaxy s3 (in my bmw the star works very well, S3 works not good).
Display: the brightness is good, the black not so good; No crash, a little bit heavy but a very good battery.
The (s)pen is not so good, too much noise when you write on the screen and i haven't find a good app for note with the pen.
Rooted in few minutes.
I only have 2 problems: i can't update maps app (it seem play store can't install in the original path, i have also uninstalled previous version but the problem remains.
The second one is that i can't see facebook photos (or dropbox photos) in the stock gallery app (any idea?)
The settings app doesn't seem to be complete.
sorry for my bad english
Hi,
Regarding maps - i had this with google search... probably caused by inserting an sd card. I guess it is related to the default data location changing after inserting an sd card. So maybe you could try to set the default saving location to the internal memory in the system settings, then update, and reset the default location to sd-card again.
Let us know, if this helped, pls.

So maybe you could try to set the default saving location to the internal memory in the system settings, then update, and reset the default location to sd-card again.
Let us know, if this helped, pls.

Hello,
I have serious issues with my Start N9599 phone running on 4.2.1 The sound is so bad that with a bluetooth earpiece or carkit that it is totally unusable.
I tried everything but read it is a bug in 4.2.1.
Now i am desperately searching for some time now for the Android 4.1.2 rom that these phones were also running on before.
Anyone knows were i can find it?! how to flash it?
Any answer is much appreciated.
Thinking in buying a clone phone
morning / evening.
I have been working exploring searching the web for the best chinese clone phones out there in the market to begin a small bussiness and I was wondering if you people can guide me if there is a "good reputation " website to which purchase the STAR N9599 or other one with a 64 gb tf storage in it or 32 gb storage ?
Thank you

Hi puentejo,
the N9599 according to specs supports up to 32 GB. I am using a 16 GB - giving me really more than I need for pictures, music, ... take a fast one!

Hello,
I just noticed this phone too and there is even a thread about it on XDA (yay )
What are your thoughts about this phone?
the only thing im afraid about is because I heard STAR and some chinese branded phones are unreliable and may suddenly stop work one day.. is it true? or STAR is a reliable company?
I saw it being sold for 213$ for the mtk 6589T version..so.. overall, should I get this phone? how is its size compared to the note 2 ? is it much larger? or about the same? will it be hard to grip it? I mean it's 5.7.. even the note is 5.5 lol
Thanks!~
