Kyphur - How do you do it???

I know this is a new post, and I'll probably get flamed etc...
But, HOW DO YOU DO IT?
You were up before 5am posting a new rom (so no sleep last night).. went to work and still carried on answering questions (good and dumb ones).. then you've got enough sense left to make a good decision NOT to include an embeded radio in WMXL AND close the thread to stop timewasters (like me)...
Go and get some sleep bcos we need you... stop posting for a few days and just watch us get screwed up and sorted out without you - you've already done the hard work, without which there would be no discussion...
Hero worship, hero worship, we're not worthy etc

I'm going to be off the forum for a few days, got to catch up on work and sleep. PM me any fixes. I'm already looking towards v0.30.
Oh yeah, if you're getting more value from your Hermes, send some support first to XDA-Dev (this place is expensive to maintain) then to the guys who came before me and if anything is left for me it's appreciated but make sure XDA and those who built the foundations I based this on get their fair share. See the list in my threads...
Long Live XDA!!!!!!!​

i do have to agree!!
how on Earth have Kyphur the XDA-Devs team managed to turn my tytn from a slow WM5 pain to an awesome super speedy WM6 monster!!!
You guys are gods among mortals!

Yes, he is the man and all, don't say it too much or you will wear it off.
You know what I think we should do too? Send them some coin.
Come on guys, for all intensive purposes HTC and Microsoft where planning on screwing us by not giving us an update. Since so far their take is "Hell, you want WM6, then buy a new phone!" Yeah, like as if the TyNT is a $50 dollar candy bar.
Here come these guys and not only set the vanilla but are working on an improved version of WM6.
Even two bucks is better than just words --more is better, $5 perhaps? Show your support. I will.
Thanks for the work XDA!

You don't need to send these guys cash, they're made of money and are actually using multiple clones of themselves to work in parallel. Kyphur Mark I sleeps 20 hours a day, don't pity him. He has lost his looks though.

Is this the whole developers team? I thought there were more of them. But now I see their photos I think I understand why they don't get out much... Maybe I'll use this as my today screen

Sorry for double posting the photo! I SURE didn't want to do that!
Caramba, Vijay! WHERE did you get that photo. Ugh! I think I dated the chick in the background there.
Ben

I think that's from one of the Alien movies.

Dash Featured on TNT TV Series "Leverage"

I don't know if anyone noticed this, but the Dash phone seems to be pretty
popular on the TV series "Leverage" on the TNT network.
The girl of the gang has a Dash and a feature close-up of it is at the 18 minute mark of last weeks episode titled "The Lost Heir Job".
The model she has is not branded (not t-mobile), and has the "HTC" logo on the top left corner on the front and the logo again appears where the silkscreen for "T-Mobile" normally would be in the front center between the display and keyboard.
Just a FYI.

datz phat.

Cool was it pimped?

ha that just made my day HTC for the win

Here's a capture of the close-up shot they did...

even after all these years, people still recognize it as one of the best phones ever made. Much respect to htc!

Well its not reeeeally a Dash since its not T-mobile, its an excalibur. But good find, I wonder what ROM its running.

Defo you only need to look @ the smartphones catagory to know the Excalibur is cult and will be for along time

Either they are just running a video in Windows Media on fullscreen (very probable)...
or there may be the insane chance they are using WebCam++ or something similar (I seriously doubt it). However that would be cool if the video was a direct feed of them videotaping another scene! Haha, movie magic

On topic but off is it anygood? as don't get in UK but sounds good from reading TNT weby...

If you look at the old Entourage episodes: Seasons 1-4 , Turtle uses the Dash
Its on HBO

Here's the 30-second video of the shot...

few questions about TP2...

I'm about to buy a TP2 and 'till then I have a few questions...
1. I plan to use this phone in my car a lot... navigation and stuff... the thing is... if I put it horizontaly (landscape) will I see something if I wear polarized sunglasses?... with my actual phone (e71) if i turn it 90 degrees I see nothing...
2. voice dialing... I saw there are many problems with this... my question... is there an aplication to voice dial like nokia phones do (s60 3rd)?... I mean to just recognize the name in the agenda... and not having to asign tags to each contact?...
that's it for now... thanks...

no one?...
another one?... how is the responsivness of the phone app?

2. Voice Command (or whatever its called) is true voice dialing, you don't have to set up any tags. To access it you just hold down the SEND/TALK key. It also recognizes other commands too, such as openning programs.

how it is in size comparing to the tytn I?... i wanna buy but in my area there is no shop displaying it on the shelf... only by order... and i hate to buy something without ”feeling” it!...

today i was about to buy it... i went down to a shop that had it... but there i changed my mind... the box was unsealed... the original screen protection was weird... i mean full of bubles between it and the screen... like it was taken off and re applied... but the worse was that the tilting mechanism had a powerfull click sound when tilting off the screen... is this normal?... anyway i was a bit dissapointed with it... i remember when i saw my tytn or my e71 i was the happiest man on earth... today wasn't like this... the phone felt like those replicas they put in shops on the shelves... i may be mistaken... but i don't know... i have to see another one live before i buy it... if i will buy it...
i don't now... it felt cheap... not sturdy at all... i cannot belive this... i thought this was the one... for about to weeks i think i read all about it and watched all clips on youtube with this phone...

It´s a great device!
Once you have it on your hands you´ll realize that is the best actual device with hardware keyboard on the market definitely!

mine didn't have the clicking sound. No idea if others do but I don't think so. It's supposedly a big phone but it really doesn't feel that big to me. Longer and wider than my last one but also slightly slimmer. It feels like a good size in my hands. Try to find another one. Plus, the one you mentioned sounded used.

No clicking on mine.
Aggreed, feels "just right" when in your hand.
sounded used??? more like abused, trashed, etc.

itțs a lot of money... and when i realised the box was already opned I was pissed off... i have seen a lot of unboxing videos on youtube... and none of the devices unboxed had the original screen protector (the one with the warning message) full of bubbles beneath...
tomorrow i wanna make an online order... at least I think... may be i”ll change my ming... who knows.... the thing is that ițm quite happy with my e71 till know.... but still that huge screen is tempting....

(Who finds me has a useless point at me! )

your phone is the last left

Wow, that sure is a lot of phones. 21 phones for 21 people, right? Otherwise, you're insane.

Nope, my phone is the flipped one on the right side, blue tiles.
I ment who finds me in the other pictures, the REAL me, not my phone
Yes, it was 21 phones per >21 users of course.

nice meeting
majority of omnia 7?
lol, my proud!
a question... is the 4th from right to left at the bottom line with orange tiles the new omnia m? i cannot detect it...

No Omnia M on this picture, only in the "more pics" link there is on the 6th photo being held by our WP TL . We weren't allowed to make photos

You're definitely the guy with the dark striped shirt, your phone is giving you away

Nope, that's not me, that guy is actually playing with the Omnia M I think (they look so similar on photos! )

itsan n9 running ICS via nitdroid, he made a sexy device garbage.

That's insane!

Quite expected, because most Microsoft employees do receive their work phones from the company for free.

cant see any HD2's there?

also, no Mozart love!
EDIT: Interesting to see that the bright theme is rarely used.

am i the only one who thinks the way the nokias reflect the light makes their digitisers look like they are made of cheap plastic (don't know from experience, touched a wp7 nokia)

Well, I can't take a quy serious who calls it Windows Mobile 8 and this vid is also quite heavily biased. And you will also quickly notice his main interest: good hardware specs.

I couldn't even get past the the first 40 seconds.

Lolz, 40 secs wasted on my life~ XD

That dumbass deleted my comments...
u__u

Thanks for the lulz xD

What a moron, he obviously has no idea what he's talking about.
Android fanboy.

This guy is a complete idiot! Waste of my time especially with the Windows Mobile reference and the Gmail app piece. And he says Windows Mobile never compared to Android. It's because Android wasn't around when it came out. And they minimized Windows onto a phone in like 2000...Windows Mobile:laugh:

I managed to get a good 3min out of that before his voice and general lack of any intelligence what so ever got the better of me, forcing me to try stab my screen with a pitch folk when ever he opened his month.
I am amazed that such inbreeding still goes on in western countries, which surely must be the only reason for such a mentally challenged presenter.
Ill happily list anyone valid pros and cons of any device and remain completely objective whilst doing it AND putting aside that WP suites my needs best, why cant people who put them selves in that position at least attempt to be impartial?!
unless of course that was his sole aim!
To get all clear thinking people flapping about him being a complete nob.
In which case my friend, you have exceled yourself

I was waiting for him to start signing the Barbie Girl song.

and about 5 min later he cry's about 10 min long how bad verison is that he can't get ics on his phones
F*****ing nope if you ask me , they actually sould ban him from the internet and take away all phones he has , give him a brick to use for calling

Getting him an Aligator would be enough

This guy is clearly tripping on something. I found this video hilarious.

I watched about 40 seconds, wrote a vile reply that most likely will be erased and left. It hurt to watch that bull****.

He needs a Kleenex.

With everyone trying to sit through it, I decided to as well. Horrible presenter - not much in the way of facts or information, he just 'feels bad' about Win8. All I could think throughout the time I could stand was CAGE MATCH!!! Let's see how this fanboi stands up to a WP fanboi... err, whatever we call General the Destroyer [FONT=&quot]http://www.youtube.com/user/generalthedestroyer
