Database Develop

Thank you

I just want to thank everyone who's developed Android on the Vogue and the rest of this community who's been so helpful. I got 26 months out of my phone which is about 20 more months than I though I'd get and that is a credit to the devs.
I received my HTC Incredible yesterday and officially retired my Vogue. I appreciate your hard work and dedication as well as your willingness to share.
Its weird having every thing work on my new phone but I'm sure I'll end up rooting and breaking things as I go along
Thanks,
Hexto

Don't be a stranger!
How's the incredible?

I'd also like to know how the Incedible is... night and day better than the Vogue? I want to upgrade, but really don't want to sign another 2 year contract. Our contract with Verizon FINALLY ends in September of this year and I'd like to keep my options open... but Verizon does seem to be the best (despite their nazism on bandwidth caps for 'unlimited' plans). Oh how I miss Alltel...

I won't be a stranger. I'm programmed to checking the Vogue Android section daily.
The Incredible is awesome. Super fast and responsive. It really is like night and day from the Vogue and I was happy with my Vogue. I don't see a need to root it and mess with it though I'm sure I'll end up doing it anyway

I will second Hexto's THANK YOU to

I've purchased a couple of Vogues off Ebay and have one running WM6.5/Android 2.1 v7 (mssmison). It's challenging and a learning experience to be able to manipulate these phones. I wouldn't be able to do it without this forum.

Would love some XDA help in winning a competition on facebook!

Hey guys, im normally really not one for these kind of things at all, however due to a huge issue with a carbon monoxide leak at my new house i am currently completely broke and had to sell my blackberry storm (which was supposed to be a stop gap) to make some funds available until pay day at the end of jan
so i have entered a competition with t-mobile UK on their Facebook page and require votes to win an atrix
really would be hugely appreciated
link is below if you have a couple of minutes, if not then no worries and i hope you all here on XDA have a wonderful christmas and a very prosperous new year

and the voting is now....................open

Time Frame/Tell your story here on xda![Archive]

I would like to do a time frame. Where we could talk about our years here. Lets see who is the oldest and what we have gave to this forums.
Personally Ive been here since 2004-05. And basically since its started when it was hard to read the texts on my razor and this was basically Htc only.
This site has been great for me and sometimes missed the simplicity of the starting years. And I believe this forums are the true shapers on the mobile era.
Please post youre time. and a story
I have a few but ill start with loosing my first account. Dont even know how it was called!

And another reason I would like to make a timeframe so please talk about youre device history and how its been youre experience in each thread.:thumbup:

I got my first android in September of last year, within a month I was on xda, and by November, I had an account cause I thought I knew enough to help some folks. I do enjoy the community, even though leeches are always making devs angry (IMO, both their faults). I haven't been around as long as OP, but I know my way around the Nexus S, and android itself!

Next time I catch you posting a ridiculously unnecessary "IB4L" post I'm going to ban you. There are more pointless posts from you around here than there are pointless threads, and that's quite an achievement.

well guys tell me, how was xda when you started and how is it now.
How It modified for better or worst?
For me it has been awesome. Ive been impressed since the beggining till mow. How guys seen to know more about devices than now.
when I started the threads were a little difficult to understand. and everything was in one main page. where you could find rhe .cab files. but you had to keep scrolling down to find what you were looking. Now its all organized and eye candy.
keep it going Lets make this thread an archive!

I haven't been here long enough to see much change but it's certainly awesome

Bro please stop that before you get banned! youre affecting the course of this thread. Im investigating abut how old is this thread and how long its been effective on the people. I think a great part that since 2003i the % of people buying smartphones has grown from a 20% to 90% has to in great part to forums like this. specially this one. people started to know about hacks and how they affect they to bennefit the costumer rather that the company.
Xda has been the pioneer when people started to know about roots and other methods of hacking the os of their devices. making them better. and having features locked by carriers. Xda has been there to keep this idea forward. and I want people to start talking about xda's evolution. and the we could take this info and make it a news letter for people to continue the tradition which we started years ago!:thumbup:

I for one part started to love this place when I had my Razor. I started to know about firmwares and hack. and every time I searched the web I ended here. there werent the hacks I needed then. That led me to my first account. but it was good to know this was there. and to read about people doing amazing stuff.
This led me to buy my first pocketpc-smartphone. a Treo 750 which I bought from second use and I still have it running a custom wm 6.5 rom with titanium.
Then I bought an Lg incite (wm) which kept me here but most of my time on lg-incite.com
the site grew and my fasination for htc too. not to be surpriced as most of the hacks where make for this devices.... check the history of the first diamond with manila. ( what we call now Sense)
So it led me to buy a Diamond 2
this was another revolution. I was a moderator on the htc-pure forums. but kept my profile here. and was as always morw and more in love with this site as I continued to know that the hacks came from here.
Now on the Dhd I had a bittersweet relation. many forum memebers dont like to keep tradition. But this continues to grow fast. Proof of this is the compact view.
We shall continue making history!

I have been here on xda since 11th of june 2012 thats not even six months. But this place has taught me how to do awesoome stuff with my low end phones (galaxy 5 and galaxy y ) but also taught me many more things,things which no school teaches.
I have learnt to be polite when I am angry, i have learnt to appreciate ones efforts. I have learnt to respect ones work.

Thats great. Now I see many people with budget phones. which proofs what xda stands for..... everyone should have equal oportunity to have the best phone they can.
Hacks make devices live longer and us spent less money on smartphones. But we still love them!:thumbup:

I've known about xda since I've had a G1 in early 2009. I didn't join until I got Sparky a MyTouch 3G (3.5mm jack) in June 2010. I'm a relative newcomer compared to some....I really put what I learned here to good use when I got my Nexus One in late June 2010....and I've had tons of phones since and I learnt more with each one.

Well I started this January. I thought that i was just going to fix my player (it was a bootloop but i thought it was a brick )and be gone but boy I got addicted to this forum. And to this date I am still addicted. Check out my thread. Its like hilarious now that I know that stuff a bit.

Yes its been a great experience!
That's the purpose I want to share how we've come from all over the world.And reshaped business. We've made companies think a bit more about their costumers, although we still need to keep this going proving them wrong in every corner. Like for example Desire Hd and ics!

Yeah man HTC were totally wrong about ICS and Sense. Forget ICS and Sense 3.6 (sorry Team Blackout and Pacha Nero) we have ICS and Sense 4.1 thanks to torxx!
And I agree we've made companies think twice about their products

Hola Amigos!

Hola Im Jose! Originally from Mexico City but now a citizen of the world. I came here by 1st time back in 2007 to find how to upgrade Windows Mobile onto my beloved and actually working HTC Universal, always loved HTC phones and became more active in XDA. With some time started to write some of the 1st news for the recent launch of XDA Portal, lately was invited to be part of the Mods team in which i had a blast of fun!, I was there to meet in person the mighty old-timer Mods and Devs back in Texas on the infamous Android BBQ 1st editions.
On that time I was so active that some called me "spammer". Getting to the first places of post numbers on XDA....
I quit my regular job back in Mexico and decided to travel the world!, that was when i lowered down my activity in the forums due to obvious reasons...
Then pandemic came and i found myself unemployed and with no chances to travel for the time being....
So.... Im back!!!
Beware high posters, Im coming after you to get my place back!
Looking fwd to engage again with old time amigos around the forums and also to understand the new XDA.
Cheers to all

Great to see you back! A real blast from the past!
