Guest Burns Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 http://androidandme.com/2010/12/news/andro...tures-revealed/ Most important point from article: "Extra Large Screens: The platform now supports extra large screen sizes, such as those that might be found on tablet devices." ;)
Guest Genieuk Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 ooh, this is good, can't wait for it to be properly available and hope it's not too hard to get it on the Vega.
Guest debs626 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) Have had a little look around it in the emulator http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...gingerbread.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...adsettings3.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...adsettings2.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...adsettings1.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...otification.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...erbreadmenu.png http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/deb...readbrowser.png No major changes to look at as such, I like the full screen pull down notification area. Hope Advent give us this version ..... sooooon ;) Edited December 6, 2010 by debs626
Guest rferrett Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 From http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.html "Extra Large Screens The platform now supports extra large screen sizes, such as those that might be found on tablet devices. Developers can indicate that their applications are designed to support extra large screen sizes by adding a <supports screens ... android:xlargeScreens="true"> element to their manifest files. Applications can use a new resource qualifier, xlarge, to tag resources that are specific to extra large screens. For details on how to support extra large and other screen sizes, see Supporting Multiple Screens." Let's hope we are going to get this. Gingerbread may not be the optimised for Tablet OS but this feature means we want it. I have tweeted @adventvega , might be worth some others asking them the question too! Ralph

Guest rferrett Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 +1 Cool will be fun to track and see if they give us any indication. Shall we use the #adventvega hashtag to track? Ralph
Guest dazzawright Posted December 7, 2010 Report Posted December 7, 2010 I have flashed the Gingerbread keyboard to my Vega and it seems to work OK so far. Hopefully we can flash new features as they emerge ? http://fabdroid.com/downloads/Fabolous_GBKB_Fix.zip Flashed via recovery.
Guest rferrett Posted December 7, 2010 Report Posted December 7, 2010 Sure will be interesting. Also that devices running honeycomb have been released, might be here sooner than we think.. yay!
