I downloaded the new 1.5pre Android SDK and gave the emulator a spin.  I am running the latest HTC Magic image on my phone and wanted to see if there was anything from the offical image I was missing on my hacked image.  I found there is an additional tweaking/reporting tool in the cupcake build called Spare Parts. 

 Here are the options:

 

  • Battery/CPU/Network/GPS/Sensor/Patial Wake/Other usage since Last Boot / Since last unplugged / Total
  • Battery information
  • Usage statistics (app usage by time)
  • Window animation timing
  • Transition animations timing
  • Enable fancy input animations
  • Enable fancy rotation animations
  • Font size
  • End button behavior
  • Haptic feedback enable
  • Show Compass in Maps
Most of these are available from other means (settings/developer settings), but there are some that are not.

I pulled the APK from the emulator and installed it on my phone.  Most of the options seem to be working.  Give it a try.  And any of you with non cupcake builds let me know how it works.
