looks cool but it seems like its trying to resemble the iphone. i also prefer the 5 row qwerty lol
still atleast theres another android phone out there

The UI looks rather interesting, I wonder if it's possible to port?

I'm interested in the UI, it looks like a Sense/Stock hybrid (functionality wise)
Plus I'm tired of the touch screen only keyboard.

me too, it looks like a little bit of pulse has been thrown in there as well with the gray/gloss bar under the launcher pull tab. though it seems like they could do a little more with the spacing of the icons, 3x3 is a little small.

I'm gonna look into getting one of these phones, maybe it'll provide something useful for Devs

[info] New input keyboard swype

On the homepage and in the article there are videos to see how it works. If this method works flawlessly it will definitely improve the writing speed a lot. Looks very promising from my point of view. I subscribted the newsletter to get a notice when this will be available (soon as the developers said).
I subscripted myself to test the beta! So i'm curieus to the result.
Subscripted also
Subscripte also. The app looks verry promising. Can not wait to use it.
signed up as well. looks like an interesting concept, especially on the diamond.
Repeated Thread?
wow looks awesome...
looks really interesting, if it really works that well that would be a revolution.
and people would finally stop whining about not being able to type easily on their touch'es
not really a revolution... Just stumbled on something like this yesterday cus i really wanted that iphone feature

The symbols page is too small. Other than that - not too bad.
Unfortunately we'll probably never get to use it due to their business model of now downloading of it, it's just baked into the carrier ROM's. Kind of dumb in my opinion, but maybe someone here can make a cab file from it.

New Phone Renders.

Hello,
Here are a few new renders Ive done for you guys.
This one is based on the Touch HD + the Zune HD, It has the snapdragon processor (1.3), 4gb onboard memory with MicroSD expansion (up to 32gb i believe?) g-sensor, HD FM radio, GPS, plus the usual items found on today's phones, and boasts a WVGA screen and 5mp Camera. Runs either Android Or WM6.5 (not dual booting, ^.^) and not seen in the render but has two external speakers (on the side) for better music and speakerphone quality.
Anyway, enough talk, heres the photos!

No, if you add one good feature, you have to take out another good feature. At least that's what it seems like they do.
love that triColour theme where can I dl it?

Looks sweet.
I wish HTC would release some phones with nice graphics on, like your wings - swirls - etc.
One thing to remember is all phones now have to have a home and a back key
Hello
Wow thats awesome man pretty cool i love it,,,,,

BLS Drug Profiles

Hey, I was bored so I figured I would code this app and throw it on the Android marketplace. It as all of the BLS Drug Profiles based off the Arizona Department of Health.
Before I throw it onto the market I figured I would ask what you guys think of the GUI. Do you guys like the way it looks? Or should I change it, what do you think I should do to make it better? Also keep in mind this is my first app.

Looks interesting. What I can see looks pretty good but you should post the apk so we can install and really check it out for ya.
This is a sorely needed app!
Thanks.
I wouldn't use blue for the text color though.
In bright lights or outdoors, that is gonna be very difficult to read.
Since this app could possibly be needed in an emergency situation, it's vital for everything to be able to be seen without any fuss or confusion.
Make it high contrast ... white text on black.
As for the overall ui, it's perfectly fine other than that. This isn't an app where asthestics are important. It's not something people will be glaring at for hours on end. It's utilitarian, it's reference. And keeping it simple is exactly what's needed.
One thing I might add at some point is a link to Wikipedia if there is one (at least I don't see it from the screenshots). Or if the material you're using for reference has other online references available to the general public, that's fine too. Especially something with links to pictures to help identify pills/capsules etc. That's just an idea.
Great job.
And if you're needing a beta tester, please let me know.
Thanks.

Ok, I will experiment with the color of the text I suppose. I can also ad a link to the Arizona Health Department Bureau of EMS. I also have a disclaimer to add, and it should be ready
Sorry for the double post, just wanted to let everyone know that I posted this on the market

MySenseUI [Artists Impression]

So, I've been very intrested how the SENSE UI was designed so I decided to give it a whirl and rebuilt it from the original wallpaper.
It took 20 minutes to design the user interface, and here is a basic artist impression. I've been quick reasonable pleased with my results and
hope to continue building up this mockup. If you have ideas, or maybe we could team up and create our own app that fits along the SenseUI!
Ahoy!
[NOTE]: This is designed not an actually application/framework that can be used on your Hero.
//More will follow.
//For design enquries of your own applications, please pm me. For example if you are intrested in hiring me for freelance work then pm me. Thanks.

I would be very interested tu use this UI.
The screenshot does not show a lot but i love it
uhm, all you did was making a rectangle bottom bar, which we've seen already, and the clock got changed a bit? for me the clock is out of proportions, and the rectangular bottom is not my taste, but it is not actually ugly. can you make without that dark veil over it? as if it was the regular homescreen view?
I like what you did there. The font is nice and the shading/colouring is very well done for the sense ui.
Would you be changing the sense ui clock or making your own widget? I only ask because I didn't think we could theme the clock.
I would love to see more of this actually. Here's me hoping you will do something with your idea
Looks great mate, just wondering what the name of the font is?
I love it!
Please make a final version.
you love it??....you didn't even see it whole,just one pic...and even if you did those are only pictures made in photoshop/corel...the guy himself said it's only designed and does not exist
any update on this one

seems like the "dev" has vanished...
FYI - I'm currently working on something similar to this.
really amazing sense ui re-design , i'll be glad to use it
lads, this was never a theme, the OP was just showing you how he would have created rosie, instead of the htc way.
i agree on that one,and i didn't expect to get a skin,just to check if he designed other screens
i cant wait ;( i love it...
An update to this impression will be released within the week. A lot of changes applied and multiple samples of MySensaeUI. Some are a lot more developed then the one I posted 2 weeks ago. Look forward to it

1-download the file : DOWNLOAD
2-put the file on your phone
3-open ROOT EXPLORER
4-do a backup of “livewallpaper.apk” in “system/app”
5-copy the file that you've downloaded into “system/app” (overwrite it)
6-restart the phone and set your live wallpaper
thanks!
... is not at least 10 characters.
Works great! Although I'd prefer a bit more quality on the background. I figured it should have been better being a direct pull from the Nexus S.
Anywho, I sorta remade the static background of it last night pretty quickly on my laptop with no mouse since I dig the design. Maybe those of you with the Nexus Revamped Pro edition may want to use it with a custom background so it looks a bit better.
Thanks for this. New look for today.

It's not a direct pull from the Nexus S. This is just a look alike made by the3dguy. The real one will look nicer when we get it.
Ahhh I stand corrected. Only one more day I suppose
Found this in yet another system dump people are doing. Still doesn't look that crisp.
