I am starting to delve into Andoid application development. As such, I needed an appropriate application launcher icon to represent my Android-oriented Eclipse IDE environment. I took a stock android logo and the eclipse icon.xpm from my base IDE directory and stirred them together with GIMP. It still needs some clean-up work, but here is what I came up with.
I just checked for updates and Froyo is ready for me to download. Upgrade started!
update: Android 2.2 installed in about 5 - 10 minutes on my EVO. No issues. I would say that it does feel a little faster in areas. I like the updated input controls.
ok, now that that has been accomplished, on to the next "thing"...
I am starting to check for froyo again. People have started to receive their notifications. Unfortunately, my EVO has not been contacted.
I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve waiting the impending arrival of Santa.
Well, it looks like the weekend release possibility was a mistake, and it has been pulled. It appears that the actual release date is Tuesday, August 3rd.
Well, rumors are indicating that the Android 2.2 update, "Froyo", may be released for the Sprint EVO this weekend. I am not going to hold my breath. However, I will be checking for new updates every 8 hours.... ;-)
