Thought about this and wanted to ask. If folks feel this is not appropriate then feel free to say so in a kindly manner and we can have the thread removed. Please do not respond to just bash or make offensive comments.
I'm in the technical field and there have been more women joining in. Curios as to how many ladies out there that are flashing their phones?
This is not public and shouldnt show anyone who they are. I will only post after 5 days the results.
i believe the majority of members on this board are men... however, alot more women are starting to surface and are eager to flash and help out... maybe the female members can help smack down the god complex some of our male members seem to have
I Am Woman -- Hear Me Roar!!!
LOL!! Yes, I'm a FEMALE geek and proud of it. Some of you already knew that, though (like Shogunmark, meschle, Dr. P. and vijay -- among others)
I've said it before, and I'll say it again -- I've flashed my Wizard with more ROMS than Quaker's got oats. For me, it's a POWER issue that I can do anything a MAN can do -- and just as well, if not better.
I used to just build desktop systems for myself, my family and friends, but then I got my Wizard and found this forum and I've become an INCURABLE addict. I just HAVE to have the newest ROM that hits the forums.
I don't think you'll find any of my posts asking about how to do something because I don't want to look like a "dumb female". Rather, I spend a LOT of time reading and learning so I know how to fix something ahead of time.
Now, I'm do a lot of reading on programming languages and coding. Sometimes, I think I'm in over my head with it, though. But, the only way to learn is to read and by "hands on" experience. So, I'll wait til the Kaiser comes out to buy it and start applying some of the stuff I'm learning to the Wizard when it won't matter if I muck it up. . .
This is fantastic. Glad you posted Newbie2. Wish other ladies here would follow suit. Like to see the ladies win this cause the men are slacking by just veiwing and not posting.
Thanks for voting Newbie2...

. . . probably 'cause we're too busy tweaking our phones (and picking up after the MEN) to care how we look. LMAO!!!
Going have to disagree here. I've been in meetings and worked closely along side with several women that were very attractive. I work at the photonic layer and some of these women are truly geeks. (Never judge a book by its cover)
I forgot to mention the rules, lowest number wins

Fair play!
Girls geeks have their non-physical sexiness. I like girls with BIG phones (e.g. HTC series, SonyE P900 series, etc) makes looks more sophisticated rather than just face and dress. And girls talking Linux and programmings are sexy in a way.. probably it makes them looks smarter I like smart girls.

The only thing I wonder about is why some women want things that men have just because men have them. That was the old 60s/70s feminism - we want what men have. Since then the movement grew up and now in the main it is more about women going for the things they want, whether or not these are things men do or want.
So I worry about your statement :
"For me, it's a POWER issue that I can do anything a MAN can do -- and just as well, if not better."
Who gives a sh** about whether a man can do it or not, it's whether you want to do it or not that matters.
As a famous feminist Germain Greer once said "comparing ourselves to men serves only to demean us and make us look weak, as if we looked up to men and strive to be as good as they are. More to the point is whether we can achieve the things we want to achieve without reference to men at all"

I remember the "power struggle" of the Women's Movement back in the late 60's and early 70's, since I was just graduating High School at that time. So, some of that propaganda has stayed with me over the years. But I'm afraid the old adage of "A woman has to work twice as hard to achieve twice as much to be considered half as good as a man" is still the norm in the business world, unfortunately. And you still hear the assinine gossip about any woman that actually WORKS her way to the top SLEPT her way to the top. While women have made great strides in the business community in the past 30 years, it's still considered a "man's world" out there.
But to put your anxiety about my statement to rest -- I do it to prove to MYSELF that I can do it -- because I WANT to do it. And I actually was echoing the "brand" put on me by some of my co-workers about being a "female geek". A geek is a geek is a geek -- doesn't matter whether they're maile or female. It's like I've contracted some type of communicable disease. But when THEY have problems, guess who they come to?? LOL!!
I'm an independent spirit and actually my worst fear is ever having to depend on ANYONE for anything. So, I've learned to learn to do for myself. And -- at the end of the day -- I can honestly say I've done all I can do and feel good about what I accomplished. . .

That is somewhat not true, sex does play a part in certain (not all) things/situations. Take Lara Croft, of Tomb Raider, for example, I don't think the game itself will be a hit if you have a muscle guys doing all those little moves "Action girls" are still currently not a norm yet, and hence made them unique, so does girl-geeks. Guy-geeks are usually marked as 'geek', while girl-geeks may be marked as 'intelligent'. Same goes with a guy on certain subject, girl-cooks are 'nice', while guy-cooks are sexy. Guy-presidents are.. *yawn*.. girl-presidents are WOW.
And I remember this from a movie..
Men with grey hairs are sexy, women with grey hairs are just old.
Women with breasts are sexy, men with breasts are ....
ps: Hanmin's law.. nice Lets tag the geeks
women are the backbone of the world
men have highly easy to mutate y cromosoms
and a stable x cromosom
women have 2 x so if 1 is bad they got the other
evolution is in mutation which is the Y cromosom so this is where we adapt
so

would be bad for human kind
less small mutation to adapt our spieces
men are in general more extreme then females
their IQ curse is more flat meaning they are more present in the
extreme high iq and also in the extreme low iq
both places extremes where people dont
prosper
being in the middle where most women reside is
the backbone of the world really

Mmm. well since women aren't the backbone here at XDA-Dev, then by your case that must be because XDA-Dev is at one of the male extremes. Either very low or very high IQ. Maybe we should let newbie2 decide the answer!

You must be a carpenter, you lined that nail up and hit it right on the head!!!
It's like once a week some n00b posts a redundant thread about the iphone, if they search they can find plenty of answers.
If you like the iphone THEN BUY ONE.
Im sure i just opened a bag of worms, and by the end of they day, there will be tons of replies about how nice the GUI is and everything else these trendy tree hugging iphone lovers can think of to defend their theory.
Fact is the iphone sucks (and thats a fact)

Anti Apple fanboys!
I think some of the comments from the antiapple fanboys are a little harsh. The fact is the guy has bought a Kaiser and likes the look of the iphone, so to him he's probably got the best of both worlds. I think everyone who immediately slags the iphone isn't seeing the full picture. It may have its faults with office syncing, no ability to configure etc.. but it is undoubtedly a thing of beauty with an interface that is ahead of it's time.
It amazes me that with all the hacking and modding going on in this forum that as soon as the dreaded "iphone" word is used all the antiappleheads race to be the first to flame the originator.
I would have given serious consideration to the iphone if it had the same functionality as the Kaiser but we all make choices. I for one think if people want to dress their Kaisers up as an iphone then fair play. I don't imagine anyone here with be giving the developer of slide2unlock a hard time for his app.
I'll wait for the inevitable backlash, yawn!!!!!

Yeah, Hi Guys,
I have an iPhone that I paid $499 for. Is there any software I can spend lots of money on to make it look like a Windows Mobile device. I could have bought a Tilt for the same money, but why , when I can just buy an Iphone and make it look like a Kaiser. Your help is appreciated Thanks

My wife's got an iPhone. Cool device indeed. So cool that I find it ridiculous to try to copy it's interface to our Kaiser. The Kaiser's simply not meant to be used like an iphone.
There's 2 different philosophy behind, it's like trying to adapt 7 seats cause you like space in a Mini or a Smart cause you like tiny little cars.
BUT using good ideas from the iphone that obviously can be adapted and adds value to the Kaiser is a good idea. I think that's exactly what HTC has done with the Diamond.

Over 1000 topics regarding the iphone, just in the xdadev site alone, so dont critisize me for telling someone to search, I rest my case http://www.google.com/cse?cx=000825...phone&sa=Search&cof=FORID:0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
USE THE SEARCH TOOL, and every other "senior member" will tell you the same thing.
The way I look at it is this, if someone has something new to add, it may not be in a search, as it is the guy is obviously new to the forum so rather than lambasting him immediately why not gently break him in. We were all new to this once and there's way too many bashers here already

Hi to All,
I am just wondering if anybody would be interested in joining a real event where we could meet somewhere in europe (Geneva? quite central and well served by cheap low-fare flights).
We could meet for one weekend, for example, and the meeting could be focused to BXD: Blackstone Xda Developers!
the entrance ticket is quite obvious: the touch HD with a non-official ROM!
...ad maybe somebody could develop some nice apps for BT identification?
I post this thread here because i think it should be a targeted event, not a general public happening. I wonder if we could also get some support from HTC or some local media, for example to rent a meeting place. Maybe we could even make a few contests and share some acknowledgements, but these are just few ideas.
...Please post your opinions!
EDIT: for your information, the poll is "in clear" e.g clicking on the numbers you can see individual names...of course, it is not binding!
...reserved for future use...
Sounds good,
But XDA is going down words...
So don't think I'm in the mood to meet some haters here....
Still a good idea.

Hi Xmoo,
we all have different opinions, i would be surprised if intelligent people would not understand each other point. I am not a moderator, but i didn't see any heavy personal offense - i know that some moderators are really very keen on that...

Well it's nothign personal.
I'm talking bout the no share issue.
I'm talking bout the android issue.
I'm talking bout the issue that many rom coockers are planning to leave.
One of my best friends and a long time member of XDA is planning to leave.
He is also a moderator... so.....
But on topic.
I would wanna go tho.
Geneva sounds good. So we can also see the car show
i like the idea, and had you suggested it a few years back then it would probably have been a big hit, but id like to echo the words above, some moderators have serious issues on here, the site is beginning to lose its self and its consistancy the admins dont appear to take any notice and let their mods run riot, even members seem to demand everything and give nothing,
Ive stopped my donations for my own reasons, i doubt i will continue unless things improve, at the mo id would rather support the individual programer than the whole community which is shame.
Still its a nice idea, but poor timing im afraid.

Off Topic: XDA is a container, as well as a real-life event. We are all civilized persons, and i am sure we could format different opinions into a real and pacific confrontations.
On topic: unfortunately, during the car show you cannot find lodging in the radius of 50 km....and becomes quite expensive.
I don't want to make any advertisement, but check for prices on www.easyjet.com from your place to Geneva and you'll realize it is one of the cheapest places to reach in Europe! Maybe London or Amsterdam are alternatives...

It is becoming quite a religious thing. To avoid what religions have been doing in the past, maybe an ecumenic event could help?

Baa forget London its cheaper for most folk to get to the south of france and stay a few nights then it is to fly an hour in London, besides Scotlands better!
i am new here since i ve own a blackstone.. but without xda? htc would be nothing for me..
i am very interested in a meeting.. also i am more a computer geek (admin of very independent pctreiber.net) i am really interested in learning and in xda stuff, i really like it here and appreciate a lot. i have no negative opinion about xda, for sure.
meeting:
would be really nice.. and a place to learn and meet.. like a wordcamp (wordpress)
Sounds like a ssplendid idea... Will definitely think about it
i am really interested and will try everything to take part.

Nice Idea (creative and constructive) - we need people like you here pzucchel - good man!

Thanks Schooleydoo, i didn't know about it!
First of all, i would like to clarify that this is just a proposal for discussion and reflection. I personally hate "organizers" jumping on top of spontaneous events to get some personal benefits in terms of recognition and reputation, and i can tell you for sure i don't have any of these targets. But there is a large number of nice people here, and people that i respect a lot even if they have opinions different from mines....that i would like to meet in person.
(including Dutty if you really want to spell it out! He is a great cook, nobody should forget that he always shared a big number of his achievements by making cabs that were used by many other roms, freely...it must be just a big misunderstanding...right Dutty?)
...sorry, Back to topic:
Seeing the number of possible attendees after 12 hours of posting already of the order of 50, i would personally argue to restrict it to the blackstone device only, for three reasons:
1. Even if there is a lot to share technically, it could well be that we have never had contacts with people from other devices. and the interest in meeting will become restricted to social groups "per device".
2. It should be, in my opinion, mainly a social event. Technical matters can be easily discussed on the forum, in fact. And to be a useful social event we would need to be less than 100 or so, to be able to meet each other and say at least 2 words in 48 hours to people that we don't know a lot, but that we could know during our forum activity!
3. Parallel sessions is, in my opinion, a mistake. if we have a single session we could easily broadcast it on internet, and allow our asian and australian and american friends (those without CDMA support! ) to be part of the event. We are ONE community, don't forget! i would love to meet our viet friends also! but we could have webcam attendants, no?
In my opinion, the best number of attendes should be below 120. Of course it should be an OPEN event (Yes we share! ) , but we should try to target a manageable number, in terms of logistics and social aspects. Any other comments or opinions?
I alread imagine meeting a 15 year old guy with the badge "Schooleydoo"...
By the way: did anybody notice that apparently techno geeks are all males? or this is a demonstration of biological superiority or somebody is cheating...
(this to attract more attendees!!! )
hey.. of course i will take my girlfriend (n73me) with me to this event/party/meeting.. its not a wordcamp, its an xdacamp and sure a great idea and happening. i agree your words full!
hi.. ive been looking for software that will make my x1 a surveillance cam.. maybe a scheduled on or off of the cam.. something like that... any suggestions?
Spying on girls is not like the real thing dude. Better get a real girlfriend. far better than the imaginary one.

What if they steal your phone???
What if that hot chick you want to spy on steals your phone ? You'll never get to perv out on the "perpetrator of the crime"
Exactly....another illogical idea from someone who wants a spycam.
weird request
but if its really important to you just install something to use it as a web cam (there are several ppc webcam drivers just use google) then use spycam software that work on webcams

hahaha..i know you all would ask that... we are only 4 in the office, in our department. we leave our phones normally in our tables. so no harm there.. what is so important for me is the documents that was used to be on my table...

Why use a camera then? If it's only three other people, start blaming them one-by-one then whoever reacts oddly, it's probably them
I'll bet you have a nagging suspicion that the documents are up her skirt or down her blouse though.

XD Still Doesn't Make Any Logical Sense
TC,
I call bull**** on your reasons. If you want to be a voyeurist, go file yourself beforehand as a sex offender or something similar or what have you in where you're currently residing.
You are probably the same bunch of idiots who have been requesting for potentially illegal, perverse, and highly likely to be misused programs.
Keep on making new accounts. I'd be more than delighted to see how many synonyms you can come up for the "spy cams". You've now got spycam, surveillance cam, why don't you try "security camera" next? or even "Animal Watcher", or even "I-li3k-2-watch-fishies" camera next.
Good day.

Chaosstorm,
I don't "google" these things unfortunately. I simply read the topic title, the user's post count, and I instantly remember the threads made earlier. Note how previous posters have stopped "using" their accounts.
Honestly, if you can't even tell the irregularities in his request, then you need to stop being so naive and think that everyone are innocent and do-gooders. Either that or you're part of the group. For your sake, I hope you're just naive.
If he wants to stop people from stealing his documents, invest in a proper security camera. Heck, since he's working at a proper place, get the place he works for to pay for it. Problem solved.
Good day.
Seriously though, they don't even have a tripod for the phone, the Xperia isn't meant to stand on a plane like a camera. So using it as a security type spy cam such as in sex tapes or "cheater revelation" tapes means that you need to be able to conceal the Xperia while making it able to stand on it's thin and non-flat side.
Seriously go buy a real camera, set it on during the AFK hours, and hide it. Or buy a freaking webcam.
Using the Xperia is just an illogical idea for this purpose. Sigh...
Darn..i never expected the response this long.. no need to argue guys... no point. you cant expect everyone carrying knives as killers... Chefs do carry knives. my point is each person have different purpose for different things.

If you catch a person in your backyard at 2am with a knife, what would his alibi need to be for you to actually BELIEVE he is a chef?
Let's face it. Guys with spycam software and small cameras are going to be considered perverts and nothing else.
Hey all,
Recently I have been researching the big hub-bub going on where Apple is suing everyone in sight (my poor attempt at humor). Next thing you know, the guy that invented the Slinky will be getting a subpoena to testify for Apple. I have been VERY busy with the crazed thing I call a life and need a little help here. I am not very delved deep into this massive debate going on between Apple and Google, Samsung, HTC. The thing I request is a "timeline" to loosely term it. Don't automatically discount me as some "lazy" person. I just need the expertise of someone with their nose in this doggy doodoo pile, so to speak. I don't really ask for much, but I haven't followed the battle since the start so my ability to effectively chronologically order the major lawsuits and actions taken by all sides is next to nil. I don't need anything fancy, hell a text file written with Notepad will do, as long as the information is FACTUAL and ordered correctly. If you feel like composing a flashy Powerpoint then by all means do so, but it's not needed. The major points will be elaborated upon and condensed in a 15-20 page Powerpoint by me. Anyways, back to work since my professors getting on my a** about being on XDA.
Thanks, worldindo1.

Mods have a "thread closing quota" and I'm nearing my TCQ for the week. I have to slow down or I won't be able to close the really important ones

Well of course, but that thing is a pretty good overview for those who are too lazy to compile on their own.
That might be the suits in the state of Georgia. I know for sure it's not worldwide.
Well since the OP hasn't come back to see if any donkeys would do his work for him, I'll post my original response.

So, basically, you're asking someone to do your homework for you and you'd prefer a nice flashy presentation if that's possible.
Would you like fries with that?
Sorry - Google and research. That's why they call it research. (I'm also doing you a favour because this thread has troll-bait smeared all over it!!)
