Nah.............

Might as well.

Why so? This is a forum relating to development and discussion of mobile devices, more or less, don't see why the Playbook shouldn't have a section.

Why has the iPhone got its own site?
Different company.
Remember, before Samsung, ZTE, Asus, etc got on this forum, it was all HTC.
They added other phones cos the OS was shared. Then HTC released Android and WP7 phones.
If HTC released a BlackBerry or iPhone, it'd be here for dev work, so then Apple and RIM would get on XDA.
Probably not Apple since they now have iPD.

If we have WP7 here, a Playbook forum would hurt no one.

We have too much devices on here as is. I remember when this was all WM HTC phones. Then devs started working on other devices, and now we have 234783491 different devices on here.

WP7 does fit in. XDA was started for HTC Windows Mobile devices. They then extended it to Android devices, and devices made by other companies (GASP!). Then they added WP7 devices. If anything, Android is the odd one out, being as how it isn't made by M$.
In noob;
"XDA IZ A HOOJ HTC F41LD0\/\/Z F4NBO1!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!one!!!!!!!"

Stop being a troll Kevin. EVERYONE'S heard of the Android Source Open Project. Wait... what?
I'm a fan of both. Have both Samsung and HTC, I however have more Samsung devices. Always been a fan since I got the Captivate. I'll be buying both brands though. And I am more for AOSP as well, lighter and more to do like you mentioned.

When I read the abbreviation, I always read it as Asop in my head, even though I know what it stands for. It's just easier than trying to pronounce it the other way.
I like to play games and I am a bigger fan of this game........Playing game is one of mine favorite Hobby.....I have played so many games and all that games are mine favorite...Battlefield 3 and Angry Birds are two most of mine favorite game.....

I knew someone who bred them. You couldn't walk across his lawn without falling over one. They were enormous buggers though and would eat 20lbs of vegetables a night, before eating all the remaining grass and deposing the remains for cleaning up the next day.
True story!
I Like MIUI this is so cool
Samsung, with ASAP SOAP SOPA AOSP. I like HTC too, but they've become boring, and they're pumping out "new" models every single week.
MIUI FTW. Messed around with CM9 beta, but likely MIUI v4 will be my golden ticket.
I like Moto hardware, but I don't like the bloat VZ throws on top of it.

Invoking ideas for use of an old Nokia phone

Hey all,
I've an old Nokia 5130 express music phone, almost new condition.
But it went faulty due to simultaneous failure of some 2 or 3 ICs. The cost involved was too much, so it's kept unused since a long time.
Any ideas how out can be put to use, any ideas are welcome for example- Converting it into a webcam(is possible, with links)
Or
Screen used for some display of pics.
Please link to procedure too, if possible.
Keep your thoughts pouring
Nokias are indestructible right? Use it as a sledgehammer! That'll break that cinder block in your back yard!

Zombie head smasher would have been a great idea, but alas mine is an express music phone not the 3310.

Any other utilitarian idea?

You could use it as action camera, like sticking it onto the dashboard and wait for accident to happen and sh*t, then post it on YouTube. 500k likes for sure.
Well whatever you do don't drop it like I did with mine.
I use my old Nokia 5310 as an alarm clock since Android can't have an alarm go off when the phone is off....
(stupid that a "smartphone" can't be "smart" enough to have the alarm work if the phone is off but a "feature" phone can.... )

OMG. Apple says "Take photos while recording" Doesn't that makes them thieves?? HTC sense 4 did that first!
HTC get your lawyers and sue those thieves!
Apple sued Samsung because they stole the style of the iPhone... I think HTC will do the same to Apple..
Oh... also the new iphone 5 can take Panorama photos!!!!!! Amazing!!!!! Wow! Unbielevable!!!

Haha yeah, forget about HTC Sense 4 and the Galaxy SIII, even the Galaxy Nexus can take photos while recording video if you tap on the screen. It just wasn't a huge advertised feature. HTC advertised it more with the One series and so did Samsung after that. Even my HTC Desire HD can do that if I flash a ported Sense 4 ROM.

Windows 8 RT Port?

Can we have a windows 8 rt port? the arquitecture is the same ARM , so its possible isnt?
You realize Windows is a closed source commercial product? Even in the off chance someone managed to ported it there is ZERO ways for it to be made available to the public without breaking 1000 laws
and windows phone 8?
The exact same thing.
You will not be seeing a port.

If you manage to emulate EFI stuff, or whatever bootloader Windows tablets use, something could happen. Even then, there would be plenty of driver issues.
However if you manage to make it usable, it should work just fine. You won't be able to snap apps, though, due to N7 having a lower resolution than 1366x768.

The HTC HD2 actually ran Microsoft software originally, so it's possible the drivers were actually compatible.
The Nexus 7 has never had any Microsoft OS running on it.
I'm sorry, but this just isn't going to happen.

choice is always good.
Another one of these threads... great. Never gonna happen. Closed source, no drivers, N7 does not meet the hardware specs even if Redmond did sell just licenses, and so on and so forth.
Not to mention it would be a cut and dry legal issue since the one and only way you'd see it outside of being preinstalled on a retail device is warez . Historically, the folks in Redmond have been pretty aggressive in protecting their flagship OS. Given that they've heavily vested the future of the company in 8, it's a given that the trend is going to continue,

I don't think they're terribly innovative at all... but they do make a seriously great smartphone. I've owned every iPhone since the 4, and will continue to do so because of how awesome they are. I really feel bad for all the blind iHaters. They're missing out on some amazing tech.
I've been waiting ages for an iPhone with a decent sized screen. Can you imagine iOS gaming on a 5.5" screen? I pitch a tent just thinking about it.
That's one area where Android just pales in comparison to iOS. Gaming.

Eh, even the mini can be too big and cumbersome for a lot of games. Both of these new iPhones are going to be gaming powerhouses. I'm still torn on which size to get. I really want the 5.5" but considering I had to sell my OnePlus One because it was too big, I might not be able to manage it... though I might make an exception for the iPhone and just deal with it.
