Im getting my new phone tomorrow with android 2.3, i dont like the box at the bottom of the home screen i like the one on froyo, is there a way to have a more rounded one like on froyo?
Hi- Thanks for the great tutorial video on installing Gingerbread onto the EVO.
So far I have rooted my EVO, and installed 2.3 Gingerbread. I am now having problems downloading apps from the Market- can you please advise what I would need to do to fix this?
at 5:47 ... did that say unplugged for 25 hours?! how the hell??? does 2.3 improve battery life THAT MUCH or does the nexus s just have a super nice battery to start with ?
Hah, because of this video I just realized I can swipe through the option columns under the video in portrait mode - Android is amazing! But then agaim I'm easily entertained...
@DeonKhong i have 2.2.3 runing on first generation droid thanks to a custom rom fast i went from 2.1 to 2.2.3 and the battery life is so much better now and is fast too
n 1959 a young teenager was shot and killed in the park. his body was found in a bush with flies eating him one day later. the guy who shot looked like a ghost. some call him the "shadow killer". Legend has it that he is immortal and very creepy. he wears a black leather coat with blood stains. if you dont copy paste this into 8 videos in 3 hours, you will be visited by this killer tonight no matter where you whats he point its not going to kill you i mean come on now i scared
why the hell does android lagg so much when browsing? even the iphone 3gs is so much smoother when zooming and scrolling. damn, I wanted to get an android phone now, but this should be a problem for me:/ anyone know if the galaxy s2 or lg optimus 2x will be fast, because I really would like to get one of the newer android 2.3 phones, or I will have to get an iphone 4:&
What a douche... Do they let anyone review phones. Most of the ui changes he talks about are Samsung Ui improvements... What a ding dong... 2.3 wont look this good on any other phone (like the droid x) Due to the super amoled screen
there is nearly literally no difference between the 2.3 gingerbread build and the 2.2 froyo. seriously ive watch about 50 videos and i can notice anything new.obviously besides from a few more colours added by the producers probley using paint
@Sinking09 Android 2.3 (gingerbread) introduced new stuff UNDER the hood, mainly for developers. The new things were very much updated and improved 3D gaming, decreased lags in scrolling in menues, a new "garbage collector", that will elimenate lags while scrolling around.
Android 2.3 also introduced better audio for games. Developers can input audio in the games without making the processor lagg.
Checj out the official Android 2.3 video on youtube, and you'll find many great new things. :-)
Gingerbread? WTF are they thinking people going to eat the operating system with coffee? Name sounds so gay. Why don't they call it Ginger. Sounds sexy and after all sex sells very well on ads.
I don't get why google didn't just take a hint from iOS and put a button maybe in the corner of the camera app to switch between front facing and back cameras, why make it so that you have to press 2 buttins when it is perfectly possible to press one? Just a thought really, loving Gingerbread, much more attractive UI :D
I bought this phone. My main issue is the battery length. This morning as I turned it on, the battery level was at 'red'. I don't know as It was charged the night before and I hadn't used it. I had to turn off gps/wifi and other settings to stabilise it somewhat. But isn't that what a smartphone is for? The second is the video playback. The quality of watching movies is not good.
@shussey100 try re-calibrating your battery. use your phone till it dies. turn it back on, use it some more until it dies. do that a few times, then charge it up to 100% with the phone off. you should notice a marked improvement in battery life. it worked for me.
@danwaffbob Oh, come on. Don't be so rude. I'm saying that Android has its good points as well. Not that 'it sucks'. I didn't mean to hurt any Android owner's feelings. So could you take that back? Or is this 'too complex'?
@shuan1210 Well, it's not just the apps, which are also checked way better before being released. It's also ease of use and, ofcourse, multitasking that doesn't slow down the whole device. But, I must say Android is still quite cool, since, indeed, open-source is also a good thing.
@edwardedema that is your opinion and most people who watch this likes android better than ios so keep those poinions on different youtube videos ok or did i write it to complex for you moron.
I have the 1st nexus and everything he just showed I can still do with this so called android 2.3 gingerbread. The only thing different is the colors of shit!!
Does anyone now if this phone will be horribly outdated when the nvidea tegra 2 comes out and if android will stop making updates for phones like these and only make updates for the nvidea tegra 2 powered ones
I don't know why so many reviewers are demo-ing the youtube app like it's Gingerbread-related. The updated version has been on the Marketplace for weeks.
@Celsius0010 I didn't say anything bad about the review; I said I didn't know why so many people are reviewing things that have been publicly available for weeks. And I got a response. It made sense. It's over. Your participation is superfluous.
Haven't seen a Android vid in a while from you guys. Good to see one.
Most people don'e like Gingerbread, but it's just a .1 differ. What did they expect? Every OS needs little tweeks in between major overhauls. I think it needed these polished threads to make it look more mature and come together. The flashy features alone would have not done it. I hope higher res comes in play for mobile as well.
