We are almost there

We are almost there to release a new test build (well, it could be a stable release). At the moment, only the camcorder still has problem. We have cleaned up the rest items on the todo list. We are planning to make a new release as soon as the camcorder get fixed.

So after this release, what is next? Here is the part of new todo list:
1. performance tuning. I'm seeing the bad graphic performance on the Eclair. It may be caused by the missing libhgl. But it worth to investigate.
2. porting libhgl
3. multi-head support

You can propose new items if you have any.

hi yin,

in regards to flash app, i tried installing my htc flashplayer.apk but my x86 version is not able to install it.
so apk packages are not platform indipendent

Hi!

Congrats for your work!

Here are some features i'd like to see on android-x86:
- hibernate/suspend/resume
- support for usb and bluetooth gps units for use with navigation software
- support for cd/dvd rom drives and usb sticks (internal and usb, with eject by software, etc.) for listening to music and watch movies directly

Is any of these features already available?

Thanks and congrats!!

The S3 mode works fine now. I think we may need to enabled other mode if needed.

The two other items are worth to support and noted.
Thanks
Yi

Thank you for the progress.

I'd like to add one minor issue, the home button.

When I hold it, the app list appears for a brief period of time and disappears.

I've tested this with the stable image on vmware server 1.x, vmware workstation 6.x, eeepc 701 4g.

On my samsung galaxy, when I press it and hold it, the currently running apps list appears and stays there until I re-press the button or choose something.
