Guys, it's slightly too geeky to be announcing this here, but as of 6.55am this morning, I'm the proud of father of Vijay555.1, née Alexander.
Those of you wondering why I've been so quite for a while (relatively speaking!) now have an explanation :wink: And unlike most of my releases, he came a little early too, but both beautiful mother and child are doing well
He doesn't look his best, but you wouldn't look so great having just been squeezed out of your mom either This is about 1 minute old.
God bless all,
V
PS. I know I won't be the only one, but man was I temped to hack the PC they had in the delivery room while I was waiting. Nice finger print scanner and touch screen - but VB interface The wife wouldn't have been too happy though :wink:
Congratulations, vijay A healthy and long life to Alexander - may his toys be exempt from his father's tinkering

Wow he's a handsome we thing - good eyes - they look like eyes made for programming to me
Baby Alexander is a little ill, and will require an operation in a few weeks. I remember saying to Buzz a while ago when we found out, that if I could, I'd hack and patch him. We all really need to get out more
But rest assured, he'll be out-programming his dad as soon as I can get him to dribble less then I do on my keyboard

Best leave that to the guy who knows how to do it properly, the surgeon.
Hope the little fella gets better soon.
TheBrit: yeah, tell me about it! They ask you if the father wants to cut the umbilical cord.
Mrs Vijay555 said "he better not, he'll poke him in the eye or something" :shock:.
She means it, I'm not best when it comes to delicate co-ordination :lol:. That's how she got pregnant to begin with

V,
Congratulations with your lovely son, he's looking very good. Hope the surgery will get him soon like he's supposed to be.
Now take it easy & enjoy these early days, you'll get used to the diaper stuff ;-) (probably not to all the breaks during the night). Take good care of him & mrs V they really need you. We can wait for some time for your new developments.
Sorry for the delayed response, haven't done much browsing the forum lately, but been thinking a lot of your family last weeks.
Warm regards from me & my family, M
Congrats. After the first 6-7 YEARS you start getting used to the extra work 8) . Thats when the marvel of the game boy lets you take a break.
How long did the birth take? My son took alost 24 hours to burts free.
Should I be upset that mUn's WM6 aRTM was up for 5$ on ebay, and he wasn't the one selling it?

I just went to Ebay and typed in "Windows Mobile 6" into their Search Engine. Just look at what came up!!! And, they originated from THIS forum, I'm sure. . .
http://search.ebay.com/Windows-Mobile-6_W0QQfromZR40
I've got a good mind to report ALL of them to Ebay . . . and surprised that Microsoft hasn't . . . yet.
ought to just report to eBay.
Conversely buyable is this
For those of us that love our PDAs and PDA phones I created the themes that I am selling on eBay to anyone who loves the gear and beautiful women - and NO they are not nudes and porn. But, for anyone that likes what they see and wants some I will give 6 for the price of 3.

I have used WM6 ROMs and I'm grateful for the cooks providing them, but let's call a spade a spade here - it's NOT "freeware". Microsoft make WM available to ODMs for a licence fee.

I must admit I did not know ODMs were not being charged for WM5->WM6 upgrade paths, however a free upgrade is not freeware.

I did. Two of the listings were pulled within 1/2 hour and I've notice that a third one has now been pulled. The only items left are the Wizard phones with WM6 pre-installed. Those probably won't last much longer.

Selling themes you created is fine since you're the author but selliing something somebody else has put together and released for free is wrong to say the least....

Well i have reported both of them, due to the fact that if someone on here has put alot of work into it, NO-ONE should be selling it on, that will just bring more problems from microsoft to this site! As we are one of the biggest sites, if not the best for the wizard.
If it is given for free, no-one can be seen to be getting money from copy right of microsoft!

Hi guys,
I have been using Dutty's Roms for Kaiser and for Diamond, but now it seems that my road and Dutty's have separated: he bought a Touch HD and began cooking roms for this ppc.
Unfortunately, Dutty doesn't have a Xperia and can't cook roms for it.
I have been pm-ing Dutty and he has offered to consider cooking for us.
I believe that it is once again a demonstration of how this man outperforms the already-high forum standards for cookers.
So I have decided to open a thread for all the people here in Xperia Forums who are willing to help Dutty to cook for them.
There is obviously no need at all to contribute by money, but I am sure that any contribution would be very appreciated as Dutty doesn't have a Xperia and it is quite difficult to cook without having a phone on hand.
I don't think that Dutty will feel obliged to cook, but also don't think that he will start cooking only when he is having a Xperia on hand.
Dutty has never cook "by request" and moreover we must not let him feel compelled at all to cook in a different way than his normal Dutty-styled Rom.
A Dutty-styled Rom is what I am hoping for.
It would be - by the very Dutty's words - a WWE ROM, as close to factory but tweaked and changed in some stuff , made faster and for it too be stable and if possibly implement some new stuff.
Due to heavy-duty Christmas Holydays, Dutty can't start cooking now but after holidays.
So, my friends, let's start the raising.
Thanks to Xmoo, a brand new Xperia can be had for £350.
So let's be generous, if all the users contribute with a small amount, even 5£ or 10£ will be fundamental!
Even a small donation can make the difference!!
I will try to keep the first post updated with the amount of funds raised...
Total amount received!!!
Funds raised: 360£ - Fundraising CLOSED

Thanks to all the brave and generous people here, and specially to Xmoo who collected it, the phone has arrived to Dutty.
Now he is playing with it, learning it and ...
... and he has begun cooking!!

As requested by couple users who PMed about cooking for experia, I just recieve a HD and start cooking for it and also during the holidays season i am spending time with my family. I totally agree with [ ninja.rogue] above a dutty rom is a dutty rom and I will try my best to endeavour in such a rom, i will also if successful with a WWE rom will try and do some translation as I started my first with HD.
If this is not wha tyou want fro ma chef, I accept all ur sincerity of asking me to cook a rom for u guys .
merry xmas
Considering an Xperia is near enough £600 retail, this is going to be a long thread!
Being xmas, my kids robbed all my money - though I'd be most interested in this too as a Dutty rom is what I ran on my TYTN II
Where is the donate link? I'm willing to donate
Hi Dutty,
Glad to see you on Xperia thread too.
@ everybody
Please for donation use the "Paypal" link in Duttythroy's signature, then inform me in PM about the donation so that I can update first post.
Thank you
Paolo
I can get him a Xperia for 350 euros, brand new.
Why paying 600 pounds???
Ok Xmoo,
let's lower it to 350£!
Thank you!
First post updated.
I'm gonna check how much the shipment is.
If dutty agrees, and there is enough cash.
I'ma buy it from here and send it to dutty.
Here, many people expand there phone contract and get a free phone.
Most of them choose xperia and then sell it for about 300/350 euros.
Brand new, warrenty + sim unlock.
A.t.m. I know someone who is willing to sell for 350.
But don't know if he will keep it for me till i have to money.
So we have to act fast.
I'm gonna donate €20,00
So if i'm gonna buy the phone I do not donate trough paypal but just add it to the amout.
So add me on donation list.
If dutty can get a cheaper one i'ma add the 20 euros to paypal.
I just donated 20£ for the device... Now all you Xperia users donate for this!!! This will benefit all of us in a major way!!!
I donated £10.00, come on ppl. We all want this dutty rom
someone like dutty is really needed to spice things up a bit over this almost dead place. what the people above have done is quite amazing. they have already managed to reduced the price to less than half the original 600 pounds is quite a short period of time. buying famous cooks is a very interesting (and funny) concept.
a bunch of ideas:
-if someone over here is from SE or close to them, it might be a worth a shot to convince them to give (or at least loan) a device to dutty
-dutty, how about donating $150 to yourself to greatly speed things up. you may not have use for an addtional phone now but im sure you can find some use for an "almost" free XPERIA.
24 hours and already £100!
My friends, let's give a very small amount of money and here we go...
.... a brand new Xperia Rom for all of us!
Merry Christmas to everybody, and peace to the world!
I am a big fan of Dutty's rom, I have both an HD and an X1 and just downloaded Dutty's ROM for the HD. I will match anything giving in the next 24hr up to £125, so if you give £10 I will give £10, up to my limit of £125. I would love to see this X1 paid for in 24 hrs. Get to work guys, you have 24 hrs

Wow, people wake up now. Donate to this, we will benefit a whole lot if we get Dutty on X1.
I donated £20.00
is this a good idea??
if dutty unlocks or unprotects his x1 roms, a lot of people will base their future roms on his work. hence making future cookers job a lot easier and hence increasing the number of avalable roms in the future. and it will ensure a good supply of new ROMs even after he leaves the Xperia scene. the problem is that most of the famous cookers use htc sold devices
im sure potental cookers will be more willing to donate if dutty is willing to unprotects his rom.
im pretty sure that dutty hates me now with all these suggestions
£5
Sorry guys, only had £5 to spend this week (stupid christmas) but I hope a fiver is still a fiver.
Fools of yourselves ? I dont think so....
The point is Dutty is probably the best Cook on xda. I for one have used his roms for 3 previous devices. He makes devices work how they should. The only one you have probably offended by your comment is Dutty.
I just hope you havent offended him too much so that he stops and doesnt offer us his usual great roms !
Itje, we also appreciate the work you do for us on your roms. But the more the better.
Keep going....
10GBP donated.
The idea here is to know what you do with your old device and to impulse a free donation devices to the members of this forum needing one
Hope we can stablish here the DONATION thread

My small contribution for protecting my freedoms.
i'm trying to build me an igloo with my broken Himalayas (4 of them :S)
you may donate it to some cook here at xda
Like many others, I sell it on EBAY!
my old himalya with a broken digitizer is ust in a box somewhere
guess i should donate it or something
I've got a working Himalaya LCD screen if needed.
I use my old Himalaya for helping to beta test things.
I gave my wizard to a friend as a gift.

I give them as a gift to ROBERS!!!!
jajajaja **** what a bad luck!
so a friend of mine send me from switzerland a Blueangel so old but knoeing this i think its a new culture that mexican don have... give it a s a gift to international friends... just family or closer frineds... BTW sold it too....
Sold mines on Ebay.
I'm using all of them
well, a month ago I bought Blackstone, and I feel good )
and as thankful user I would like to donate my Himalaya to somebody of developers on this site. I hope it will help to build more good and stable roms.
Himalaya (originally it's I-mate / Qteck) fully working, it comes with additional battery, earphones, cradle and leathercase. maybe something more, I don't remember already.
touch screen of the device is burst in several places, but is still working. for development use you don't have to replace it.
that's all about it.
now how to get? I live in Israel, so you pay only shipping or in a month I'm gonna visit Germany(Nurnberg) and I can take it with me.
btw: I do not speak english very well, so sorry
Yes i have to new Hima
My suggestion is to send Master Ather90 the Hima. He's a little older than 18 and his last Hima is broken. So he left our forum and switched to another. He was one of our most activ developers and reacht moderator status. The problem for you might be his place, as he lives in Bahrain, but fro Germany it is no problem to send via DHL as a gift, with custom declaration. As the device is worth aproximately 50€, it is possible that he has to pay a small amont of tax.
I think, a lot of people miss him and his work, so you would do us a big favoir.
Very good Idea.....

I havent gone anywhere, im still here its just that i have my Final Exams this month, i'll be finished on 23rd and then im on the heat
also, on 10th June i celebrate my 19th Birthday and i would love to have the Himalaya
yeah, the truth is that I would like to give it to ather90. I used one of his rom and liked it.
so be it.
shipping may be the problem for me. so I can take it to germany, I will stay there for a couple of weeks (17-30 june) and everyone is welcome to come and to transfer it to ather90.
That is great, you're the man of the day, Kap60HaT!
I wanted to send my own secundary Xda to ather but then I got in trouble with the Qtek I used the other day. So I have got the information to send a gift from Germany to Bahrain via DHL. I can send you the customs declaration too. It's some where around here . I will ask for the shipping asap, maybe you can send it from Nürnberg to ather90. If it is a prob for an israelian guy to send to the middle east, you have to post it to me if noone else could visit you, because I live ca. 500km to the north west.
We will get this job done, I'm sure.
great, really appreiciated Kap6oHaT
tell me once you are there and i'll let you know my address
from Israel there's no post service to Bahrain. and on Deutsche Post site, I saw it's about 14-15 euro, so there will be no problem.
I will need an exact address. you may pm me.
good news all, im back
just got the news from home that my device is there, soon i'll start cooking (once im dont with my eye opt.)
Cool, Kap6oHaT +1 !

Congr8z brother and gud heart that person have who sent it to you. looking forward for good cooked roms for himalaya by you.
