Future, meet your past. The fine lads at xda-developers forums have ported the Android 2.1 ROM — you know, the updated OS from Nexus One that everyone’s been talking about lately — all the way to the original G1. Right now it’s being dubbed version 0.9999 since it’s still lacking A2SD, CompCache, and SWAP… and if you’re feeling confused by the terminology, it might be best to not try this at home just yet. Creator Teh Dust has also removed a few things for the sake of making it more lightweight, including Car Home, Live Boot, and high resolution wallpapers / apps that don’t jive with the G1 anyway. Willing, curious, and wanting to impress your Droid-carrying friends? File’s hiding in plain sight, waiting for you.
Update: Quoth the raven, ’twas a hoax and nothing more.
Thanks to a very generous anonymous tipster, we’ve gotten a number of hands-on pics of Barnes & Noble’s soon to be released (for some) Nook e-reader. The impressions we’ve been given, however, weave a tale of a laggy Android interface, which sounds like what we noticed with the first introduction video. Other fun facts include in-store WiFi browsing coming in 2010, and an important clarification that cover-to-cover book browsing over BN’s network only works for an hour at a time, not unlimited. We’re itching to get our own hands on it, but in the meantime, gloss over these gracious pics. Excerpts from the tipster after the break.
• “The thing lags so much between the e-ink display and the Android touchscreen. All I want to do is use the e-ink display as touchscreen. It’s nice to see the real book art, but its so tiny and laggy that I simply want to leave that screen as soon as I can.”
• “In tiny text in the manual, it states that the in-store WiFi browsing will come in 2010. So your holiday product will work after the holiday. I guess that’s okay for most of the masses because they’ll be getting it in 2010 anyways.”
• “I also can’t remember if this is common knowledge, but you can only browse books cover-to-cover over B&N WiFi for an hour — Not the unlimited that was promised when it launched. I mean, people would just not buy stuff if that was the case, I suppose”
Nestled in the leaked Android 2.1 ROM, 20 new devices are mentioned by name–including those we knew of already (Dragon, Dream, Hero and Passion) but some new friends too, Bahamas, Bravo, DesireC, Espresso, Halo, HeroCT, HeroC, Huangshan, Incredible, Legend, Liberty, Memphis, Paradise, PassionC, Sapphire and Supersonic. Phew. [ AndroidSpin via BGR]
Alright HTC Hero owners: backup your handset, brew yourself a strong cup of coffee, and get ready to RTFM, because an unofficial Android 2.1 ROM — complete with Sense UI — is available for your handset. A few days back we reported that Android 2.1 was spotted running on the Hero, but now, courtesy of XDA-developers, the rumored build is on the intertubes for all to download. Come on, try it out, we know you’re curious; don’t forget to backup your data, and be sure to let us know how it goes in the comments.

HTC promised the world an Android 2.0-based firmware for its Hero line once it figured out the nitty gritty details of porting Sense to Google’s latest code, leapfrogging Donut altogether — but now, it looks like they’re gonna do one better. Screenshots found today show a Hero running Android 2.1, which would dovetail nicely with the fact that Google had teased a “minor update” to 2.0 before the end of 2009 back when it announced Eclair last month. The interface looks largely untouched from 1.5, proof that HTC was able to bring Sense up to speed with minimum drama; it’s unclear when this’ll all be available, but considering that Sprint’s version
just got a super-minor update, some carrier-branded versions could be in for a wait.

Rear directional touchpad I’ll take this as a step in the right direction for att. I feel once they get at least one Android phone, they’ll start to bring more in. Here’s to hoping we’ll see the Droid sans keyboard some time next year.
