Strange that no one linked this earlier, been posten ouround at different blogs the last few hours.
Anyway great to get it here as well, and maybe somone can dig up something more.
I find it good that Nexus one is running it, then I might be able to get a port for my HTC deisre

Great finding, thanks!

and this quy arrived a few days ago as well
*edit*Outside google HQ

All the screenshots so far have the notification bar cropped out, Google must be cooking up something so big with the notification bar that even the leakers can't bare to reveal yet.

One bad thing though, if the rumours is right then Google will release a new phone around Christmas. I guess this will be with more powerful hardware which will be able to run honeycomb or something.
So then requirments might increase siginficantly to 3.0, which means i need a new phone soon

Well our Nexus's are ready now for Ginger & co.

It's not a rumor, Nexus Two (or whatever they call it) it's going to be announced probably
in November 8th. Manufactured by Samsung. It's the same phone as the Galaxy S
but a little thinner and with a curved back.

Eric Schmidt: "Initially, Google felt that they needed to build a device to help Android along so they worked with HTC to create the Nexus One handset. Schmidt says: “The idea a year and a half ago was to do the Nexus One to try to move the phone platform hardware business forward. It clearly did. It was so successful, we didn't have to do a second one. We would view that as positive but people criticised us heavily for that. I called up the board and said: 'Ok, it worked. Congratulations - we're stopping'. We like that flexibility, we think that flexibility is characteristic of nimbleness at our scale."

Bollocks! I knew I should've waited!! I loved my Nexus One until it was stolen. I loved the fact that everything came there first, as far as updates etc. It was so obviously Google's own phone. I didn't like that I had to use Dialer-One and Launcher Pro though (not crazy about stock Android dialler).
I love my Galaxy S's hardware, but I'm not loving this RFS stuff. How can I recommend a phone to people if they're going to have to lagfix it.. How do I know some OTA update isn't going to break it a year down the line and then they all start phoning me ?!
A Galaxy-S Nexus would be cool I reckon ..

[Q] Anyone lose their touchscreen access on their TF101?

I'm hoping that this isn't something dumb on my part, but my touchscreen only worked for about an hour and then it just stopped working after that - I had it in sleep mode for awhile. I tried a data wipe and even drained the battery dry, but so far no change.
Has anyone seen this issue? I'm hoping it's something fixable and not a hardware problem. Or if anyone has any other ideas, that would be appreciated -- thanks! I'm also trying to track down that new update to see if maybe that might help me.

I say return it and get a new one, think you got an unlucky one.
try pressing and holding both the power button and the volumn button together until it shuts down

I don't have mine yet so can't comment on what's going on. But hopefully you are right in that it is software issue rather than hardware. Were you rooted?

Not even rooted. I had used it for about 20 minutes, put it in sleep mode, then tried it a few hours later and the touchscreen stopped working.
I also tried the Modaco update (later on), but that doesn't reflash everything - it's more of a supplement (I made nandroid backup so I can undo).

Dang... Get a new one! Glad to see you on this device, not going to lie. I was about to pull the trigger on a vgt until i heard about this device.

Other than the fact that the touchscreen is borked , it seems very nice. A little larger than the Xoom, but feels lighter. Screen ratio seems similar.
I was hoping to do some screen comparisons versus the Xoom, to see if this IPS is superior. Kinda hard to do that now - my hope was that this would replace my slow but reliable R10.

Have you tried doing a complete factory reset?

I was going to do the same thing that I did with the Xoom, which is post on Slatedroid and then link from here - in my mind, the sharing of knowledge being the most important thing. But I don't think XDA rules permit that unless I support both areas - I think I could manage that, though.
Of course, my device is in no shape for any modding right now. Still, I might try a Ventana image just for the heck of it. I'd just like to know if my problem is hardware based or not.

Nothing is going all that fast but it has been known for almost 2 years now that HTML5 was going to replace Flash eventually. For alot of reasons mostly, because the Language is more flexible and allows dynamic interaction with media, less proprietary tags and is a smaller data size. But I fail to see how flash (or the lack thereof) has any impact on Android since Android already currently uses HTML5 now.

Or maybe you could actually make a useful contribution for once, at least once every 1500 posts. There's enough clutter and nonsense in these fora already, someone that reminds everyone of said state falls very close to being part of the problem. But I guess it's ok as long as you never get out of the Transformer section and think of yourself as of a witty, handsome boy.

I'm just trying to learn and understand. No need to be snarky as the only rule of xda is to be respectful. No need to be so nasty. If you didn't have anything to contribute why did you even post in my thread?

I think you're pushing closer towards becoming a troll but I'll play along.

It doesn't. How many times in the past month have you used Flash on your Android device? I'm betting not many - Flash is nice to have (and the plugin is staying on the Android Market) but there's no loss in not having it. The thread you link to is pure hyperbole as well.

I use flash on my tablet almost every time I use it, I prefer to have the desktop functionality of full web pages rather than using less feature full apps. A good example is YouTube, although I sometimes use the app because its easier to use, I love the functionality of the full YouTube web page and therefore watch most YouTube videos in the browser, in flash.
I dont really mind that they have stopped development of flash, so long as I can continue to use the current version on my device until it is no longer needed (i.e. when HTML5 starts to appear instead of flash on most websites).

Q3 rollout though? It might as well not be coming out at all. I feel certain that sometime between now and Q3 I will not be able to resist picking up some stupidly powerful quadcore tegra3 (or similar) device which will have launched with ICS, and probably for a decent price.
It all leaves me imagining that Motorola only have a single solitary developer with a shoestring budget tasked with putting out the software upgrades for their existing range of phones. Why else would it take so long?
Anyway, looks like our own wonderful development community is the place to pin our hopes for some kind of ICS goodness, within a reasonable time frame.

Not a big fan of the trombone. I mean, I respect it as an instrument, and the people who play it as musicians, but it would have been much more helpful if you had picked something like a cello (which I also like much more than the violin).

We'll get ICS WAYYYYYY before Q3. The dev are working on it as we speak the only thing stopping them is that they're missing the telephony.apk which we need in order to connect to a GSM network. Without it we have a really small tablet with ICS.
Since we know that there is ATLEAST 1 dev in Motorola working on it that means that there will be a working APK with any betas/alphas that get out into the wild. As soon as that happens you can bet jim or lfaber will jump on it and fisnish their ICS masterpiece and maybe make CM7 or CM9 with it.

That is exactly correct!!!
So everyone keep checking cheesecake, ALL servers at least once a day, that is how we will find an early version, as we did with 2.3.6 months before it was out officially. If we get that, then yes we can get CM9 working.
I might have CM7 out here by the weekend, at least that is what I am hoping, but it is still not ICS, it is the 2.3.6 version.

I know its not as fast as we'd prefer, but isnt it nice to hear SOMETHING official from Moto about this phone? We all have been in limbo, heard assumptions, conflicting rumors/"inside" info, so I like that we at least know the future of our device, officially.

Sent from my MB865 using XDA App

Well, after trying every phone out there (including a brand new unlocked Galaxy Nexus (returned), SGSII, HTC Vivid, etc.) I can say without a doubt the A2 is the all-around best android phone out there for AT&T. I have come back to it everytime after finding the other phones were either cheaply built, couldn't hold a signal, couldn't obtain gps lock, or took crappy pics. While the A2 doesn't do any one thing extraordinarily better than other devices, the phone does everything well with good battery life and great screen to boot.
ICS will definitely make the A2 a keeper, especially if can finally unlock the bootloader for some custom kernel goodness

Q3 is July - September, when September comes expect an announcement about delays and when 2013 come expect your atrix 2 on ebay.

New Firmware Update! NMJ03B!

Scrolling seems no different to me. But I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for.

When you scroll slow it looks like the framerate chugs.
Here is a super obvious example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbw_TUnfXuU

The slow scroll micro stuttering is something I hope to see fixed. Please tell me it is.

That is unfortunate. Let's hope the final build will fix this.

I updated to today's build and no changes whatsoever to the slow scrolling issue. I'm VERY disappointed. If they don't fix it within a few months I'm done. This is my biggest issue with the phone. Coming from the HTC U11, the slow scrolling is horrible.

Here is a super obvious example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbw_TUnfXuU

In today's Reddit AMA, me and a bunch of other people brought it up. They said they have a fix for it and it will be in one of two OTAs planned for release in the next few weeks. SOURCE

Any way to force NMI81C? Mine still says September patch levels are current.
EDIT: I was able to force the update onto my phone via adb sideload. Worked fine. Instructions at:

Just installed the new update.
Seems to be much faster opening and processing now.
Only my opinion of course.

Finally one opinion about what this update is about: the camera, and not the stuttering. Hopefully other camera-related opinions will follow !

You're correct. As of tonight it still isn't offering me October.

The camera has virtually no lag for me and even HDR shots only take about 1 second to process in the background. I find it comparable to what I have been able to get from the Google camera. I find that both have a bit of a blue shift in most cases that I have not been able to get rid of. It's more sensitive to it in office lighting. I also find that with both apps, the output is slightly oversaturated (verified by pulling to my laptop to rule out the screen itself).
None of it is bad enough for me to really complain about it, but I'll be trying to find ways to tweak as we move forward. I love the phone otherwise. It is incredibly snappy, at least for me. I don't notice any lag.
