Database Develop

The Pro-IPhone Thread

Can we set up a iphone development page set as hawever would like not to acknowledge its existance it is here. and should be looked at like any other device (palms remember lol)

I believe from a "legal" standpoint actually talking and sharing ideas about developing for the iPhone is against the SDK.

Have you not noticed that this is an "HTC" forum. Since HTC don't make the iPhone, and since the iPhone doesn't run WM, there is absolutely no chance.
The Palm devices here are manufactured by HTC.

Idiotic? like it or not there are other smartphones out there and it's just ignorance like that has kept the WM platform from developing, neither devices are perfect but maybe sumone here can think I wonder if that will work on WM and vice-verca, sure how many threads is there about looking the likes of a simple thing like the keyboard being ported or coppied over to WM

This forum is called "XDA-Developers" for a reason. It is dedicated to HTC devices, which at the time the forum was set up were only released under the XDA brand.
The two platforms are completely different, and share no common ground.
People may want their HTC device to look like an iPhone, but that doesn't mean the site is going to dedicate space and bandwidth to the iPhone it self.

As the mod has already stated, this is a HTC forum. Any discussion aside from that manufacture is going to be off topic. If you feel compelled to discus iPhoney, there are other venues to do so. I too think it is idiotic to request the mods to add a board here for iPhoney discussion.

Forget iphone...this is a HTC forum!!!

How to brick your phone, simply by changing the wallpaper!
Wooohooooo, what a POS!

You can't even successfully change the wallpaper, haaahaaa what a joke!

Well you've seen the answer.
But a therapy group, to convert might be a good idea.
But truth is on XDA it won't take long before more and more objections get it. Just because it's against the cause.
There's also no sense of discussing it.
Even a fun thread could get ugly in no time and we wouldn't want that now.

Just wondering about the forum's Index page...

it's not alphabetize like Wallaby is the first then Blue Angel, etc...
so how are they arranged? is it by released date? good-better-best?

EDIT: wrong information, sorry

im pretty sure the sedna was released before the blackstone so i don't think ur right orb3000
ill ask around

To tell the truth I have no idea, Flar decides the order where new forums are inserted.
From what I've observed over the years, she try and keeps similar devices together to make it intuative to find similar phones, but I'm not sure on the exact criteria (and if it stays the same each time a new forum is added ).
Dave

As long as it stays in the current sequence, then most of us can find are way around

Ok you lot - this is the way I see it. You all remind me of the clueless guy in this sketch. The guys serving, well that's me and laughing boy is P1Tater -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSINO6MKtco
Mike
.. also reminds me of those guys that ask "what is the best ROM for my HTC Kangaroo... er Wallaby thingy"
oh and to the OP who said "Just wondering about the forum's Index page"; all I can say is, that's good because you are meant to wander about the forum's index page.

HE-Larry-US!
That is an AWESOME YouTube clip. I work in an Electronics store so it was particularly relevant to me.
I think the Index page will just be an XDA-Developers mystery. We can all contemplate the meaning of the Index page and come to our own conclusions, and make religions trying to explain it. All the while trying to make sense of it and praying that when your new device comes out it isn't stuck right in the middle somewhere causing you to always scroll around.
I for one am curious, but at this point I think I'd rather not even know IF there is a formula for device placement.

thanks guys!
now i'm really confused.

If XDA was not HERE !!! POOL

I want to open this POOL and please all members answer corectly.
HOW MANY if you will BUY any WinMo or Android Device if there was not comunity like XDA ?
Its True that HTC and Microsoft Without XDA.... are nothing.
Who is trying to make your devices run faster? The Members of XDA
Who is trying to make your device look much better? The Members of XDA
Who is trying always to have UPDATES even when Microsoft and HTC do not release any Software Updates for your Device? The Member of XDA
And this is just example...
I think that HTC and Microsoft need to know all this and minimum they need to buy for each XDA Developer one Bentley.. because if they was not HERE.. Nobody will spend thousend of $$$$ to have one Device without a Support.
And to recive some stupid apps from Windows Marcetplace with 90% of them are useless.​

that is a hard question. but without xda there would still be ppcgeeks howardforums modaco and others. but i do spend most of my time here.

Yes, sure I would buy WM!
But most sure I´ll get rid of it if XDA does not exists
And probably I would ended on Android

Yes but you dont understand the question..
Is true that have other sites for WinMo Devices and etc But for example
in ppcgeeks do the peoples cook ROMs.. or in MODACO just google all the FIX all the UPDATE and tricks.. are made in XDA and they are post in diferent sitest.
So if was not here XDA what ROM`s and Updates will be posted in all other sitest?
Maybe will pop up one new cooked ROM per YEAR LOL

I will get rid for around a 30 days of using my Blackstone with the Stock ROM and even im not able to install a THEME with sure i will put it in the TRASH and will never buy a WinMo Device.

it's poll btw

I actually came to XDA because I got a Wallaby and later a Blue Angel, so XDA was not my defining factor for buying WM devices. Having said that, I would probably not have a serious case of ORD if it wasn't for XDA ...

thinks
I bought a blackstone 1st , then found this site, but probably my next phone will be a windows but only because of the support offered here. Thanks

I only found out about this site after i bought my XDA II in March 2009.
But i think the xda II would have gone back on eBay if this site wasnt here.
Windows mobile 2003 is annoying!
Yeah, so a BIG thanks to:
Xda-Developers,
Ather, (first man who helped me!)
frauhottelmann, (with my htc s710)
aeroflyluby, (amazing roms!)
Orb, (posting good threads, that have kept my interest)
Stylez, (PC Related stuff)
Kristaps-K9-Lv, (pc related stuff)
Erm....
And a LOT of other people!!
flyboy

I bought and loved Android before I knew about xda.

Well I bought my first device not realizing XDA existed, but I would definitely make sure XDA had forums 9or was getting them) for any potential new device in the future

I had an Ipaq pda for years before I found xda. But after I bought my second one (an Imate) I found xda. I realized i did not get full value from my Ipaq. I have had several WM phones since and love xda. And I do love my WM phones.
However, without xda I probably would have moved to an (ugh) Iphone years ago. So may thanks to xda for saving me.

There's a penetration testing thread in the tp2 forum that works for many HTC winmo phones that I've been playing around with on my fuze.
I'm still pissed that it got made a legacy device when it did. At the time, there were at a page of new posts everyday added to the dev section. And they weren't noobs asking stupid questions in dev either. On top of that you had the moto backflip and other crap which had no dev support period being added every other week.
From a chef, what do you think would be cool to do to a non daily driver touch pro? I can't bring myself to put that thing down.

I too have the good ole TP ( Fuze ) Will never give it away - and yes me too way very emotionally attached to Fuze dev section - but sadly we had most of the ROMs discontinued - I discontinued mine also ( for public ).
I think only NRGZ cooks regularly for Fuze, TAEL, JMC etc etc all were discontinued or were no longer supported. Hence, it makes sense to send it to legacy devices - and hey it's not that legacy devices sections are not accessible just a click away.
Well I just play with my Fuze cook a new ROM once a while - just use it for a couple of hours in a week - if I;m feeling nostalgic - I just use it for a day or two.
Won't sell it as it will fetch me pennies compared to what I bought it for.
And I agree, some devices have disappointed as hardly anyone develops for them - but now we are much more careful about what we add and what we don't.

Oh yes ! And that epic BUILDs thread by Da_G - good ole days - I was one of the dev team members who ported manila2.1 and manila2.5 to VGA resolutions
In those days HD2 was new and our device ran manila made for HD2 perfectly - and it was one of the best XDA moments for me

Shouldn't be the case - are you using the classic theme ? Then maybe, not sure though.
Although - XDA Shutdown i remember - was pretty swoosh I even themed it for my ROM and I think so did NRGZ. Can;t recall who the dev was - maybe hilaireg or DaveShaw they both were Fuze owners and devs, very active on the forums and helped me alot.

If there is already a thread that pretty much says the same thing why not just add to it rather then making your own.
The new one is just going to get locked and give MODS more work.

I'm gonna slightly disagree with this... Respectfully of course (old wink) and say that I wouldn't bother going to the about thread because as somebody above mentioned, this is not a democracy, those in charge have settled on new smileys and therefore new smileys it is....
I don't particularly like them either and will continue to take the piss until it gets old but hey, ya know what? If a set of forum smileys are something that causes you to get even slightly worked up then take solace in the fact that you must not really have anything serious to worry about.
