Meizu M8 running Android 2.1

This is a Meizu M8SE 8Gb running Android 2.1 (Eclair) in beta. It doesn't have drivers for baseband, wifi, bluetooth yet, but many people are working on it and Meizu promised to release all necessary drivers they need, so... this is only the beginning :)

All info about this project can be found here:

why do you have to hold the phone upside down when you access programs or even just the dial pad?

[MeizuMiniOne]

@cusburger Because the gravity sensors driver is not completely working at the moment.

[victoroos]

what is that lowest option, djyos?

[MeizuMiniOne]

@victoroos It's a chinese open-source OS project if I'm correct, but I'm not sure why it's in the boot menu...

[jawbraeka]

is there a way to turn off the booting sequence of the android bootup yet?

What kind of touchscreen is it and i felt during the vid that some parts when moving around in GUI it lagged a bit. Is this something to get used 2 or will it be as smooth as HTC's, Iphone's smartphone and phones like it.

Hope it works also for M8 SE 16GB soon :)

@MeizuMiniOne I must say very good progress so far. Will the M8's processor be able to handle all the functionality a2.1 can produce? ie: speed when scrolling through the home screen pages, cos i found that when i updated to Meizu's new UI there was a good significant difference, and i'm hoping the same thing will happen with this new a2.1 release. (sorry for the long msg on here, i'll save it for the meizume forums nxt time)

cool

i hope it will be as smooth as the current mymobile firmware
