coolest sheit ever! Yeah one thing I liked about the movie Real Steel was his phone. It's like a cross between the iphone mock up I linked and what you just linked.
I dont see that taking off. That Levono is awful and a step backwards imo.
Both have a cool factor but who the hec would want a screen you can see your hand through it? Just cant see it taking off and those imo who buy one IF we ever get it will be taking it back or just realizing they made a mistake.
Dude, it's not THAT phone that has my panties all aflutter, it's the fact that SOME tech company is moving in that direction. I agree that the phone execution is a step back, but the potential is what I am excited about.
I remember mobiles phones being all big and clunky then the direction was to get them as small as possible. I had a small nokia 8210 i think....we use to joke that phones were getting so small they'll soon be in our heads!
Not long after that the trend become bigger phones. I don't remember anyone predicting anything remotely simlar...
Point is, we don't know what will sell, otherwise we wouldn't be on forums, we'd be minting it out there lol.
I do hope that phones will become lighter and extremely thin with great durability.

Modified my Nexus 7 to use the full tablet UI. Far, far better IMO.

Requires root but it works perfectly. I don't mind the other Tablet/phone UI but I've been used to the full thing on my old Xoom and Transformer Prime that it's good to be back to it.
It's all just the Apex Launcher (free on the Google Play store) and messing around with the settings. Icons are from a set called Suave.
I'm on Jelly Bean nightlies now.
What is that in your notification tray? That has the LTE toggle?
I'm on CM10 too... Try Settings > System > Notification drawer > and then there should be Power widget settings. It'll be in the Widget buttons section.
I'll play too, though mine is pretty boring:
Main:
![]()
Pull down w/ some toggles:
![]()
Right:
![]()
Left w/ scrollable browser favorites (that launch into Chrome):
![]()
Far right i have a scrollable calendar widget and far left I have quick dials and quick texts of my most frequented contacts.
