DREAM/G1 NEXUS ONE SPRINT EVO 4G MYTOUCH SLIDE HTC DESIRE  

HTC Scorpion Leaked. Maybe 1.5Ghz Processor. Android 2.2. Is it real?

by Simon Walker on 9th Feb 2010 -

Is the HTC / Google Nexus one the king of the crop anymore?
Not if the following rumor has any validity.

More and more rumors appear everyday about new devices coming from HTC and this latest leaked build file looks like its from the HTC Scorpion. I can’t confirm the validity of this information as this was anonymously sent to us but it is mentioning the HTC Scorpion and possibly Android 2.2 and 1.5Ghz processor. It would be nice to think that this is true as the evolution on Android devices just keeps snowballing.

If you know anything about this device please give us some information in the comments.

    “its fake” check the datez, they do not match also my source hasn’t even heard of 2.2… I’m stuck on 2.1 dumps but no 2.2 :p. Sorry folks but this is bogus

    Well, that’s funny because this would be the first time I’ve seen a build.prop list processor speed.
    Not only that, but several other parts, seems doctored to me, for example, how two automatically-generated build.props managed to get created at exactly the same time, mdpi being a locale language, specially after a 240 dpi (hdpi) density was specified somewhere else. And, best of all, how the unix time tag (ro.build.date.utc=1264645720) reads “Wed Jan 28 2010 02:28:40 GMT” but the date tag (ro.build.date) reads “Sat Feb 6 13:42:06 CST 2010″. That tells me somebody living in CST doctored those build.props.
    Sorry, guys, they’re fake.

    I have looked into this and it seems only one thing is correct and thats the build id, there is a froyo rebuilt eclair but I do not know what the numbers mean :(

    drc = donut rebuilt cupcake
    drd = donut rebuilt donut
    erd = eclair rebuilt donut
    ere = eclair rebuilt eclair

    and etc etc well thats maybe the only accurate part in this build.prop :)

    the latest I have is the moto dump 2.1 and i havent heard anything esle about 2.2 from source

    I contacted HTC regarding this… of course, they denied that they were working on any devices for use with the 1.5-GHz Snapdragon. I still think they’re building one. :-)

Due to the nature of the leak there are no images nor are there any videos of the proposed phone only some code from a build file, check it out on AndroidSpin [...]
