9ice phone dude love it ooh if wishes were horses

HTC Sense gives a great user experience but the camera is the real killer app. cant be upgraded to windows phone 7 when it comes out. not a pain though; never liked that zune interface, and no multitasking. sort of like killing the idea behind winmo.

the mini of the HD2 is out but me, i prefer that big honkin' screen, the bigger the better.

thats why im mulling over an ipad. dont need it, but heck i's WANTS it!

southerners do no wrong, notherners do all the wrongs. ha! first, you screamed sanusi must go, danbazau must go even yaradua must go. but dora, who did a famous somersault in her insatiable bid for power is your hero.

the finance sector is in the firm grip of the south and when those thieving banksters (who mostly are southerners) nearly crippled the banking system it required a northerner to mop up the mess. and then you all bayed for his head, even though the investments he's trying to salvage are largely owned by southerners.

your prejudice will never let go of you.

no wonder the south is decadent.

it gives me pleasure to see that most of the shame brought upon nigerians is by hands of the southerners:

1. looters (James ibori, alams, tafa balogun, mike okiro etc)

2. kidnappers

3. pipeline vandals

4. armed robbers

5. fake drug importers

6. drug dealers

7. smugglers

9. oil bunkerers

10. 419ners

11. counterfeiters

12. blackmaketeers

13. bandits, rogues, highwaymen

14. abortionists

15. HIV spreaders

16. teen pregnancies

17. ritualists and ritual murderers

18. con men

19. rapists

20. drunks

21. prostitutes (some parading as graduates, others actual graduates)


and every single evil, degenerate, immoral acts known and unknown to man perpetuated in nigeria and beyond.

gaddafi is right, we need to unburden ourselves with the plague called the south

frigging misguided narrow-visioned bigots.

better pix. thanks, 3GS! so sad you have to be relegated to the bottom of the drawer.

better than yer ol iphone, the HTC HD2. sorry my lame Nokia somehow split the pix down the middle.

had some major probs with my iphone so thot i'd share.

model is mc 135 ll, bootloader 6.4, old bootrom so iboot is 24kpwn vulnerable. all fine and good.

had signature hash for ONLY 3.0 (stupid, right?). didnt move up to 3.1.2 cos i was avoiding wifi issues with blacksn0w. laziness!

phone crashed after receiving call while in modem tethering mode, stuck at boot logo and rebooting thence.

cant upgrade to 3.1.3 cos no unlock, and wanted to move up to 3.1.2.

so cooked up 3.1.3 custom fw on pwnage retaining 5.11.07. problem is blacksn0w isnt compatible with 5.11.07 on 3.1.3, so haveta go with the unofficial blacsn0w rc2.

did that, and waddata know, iphone froze and went into same reboot cycle as before. wasnt that wot i was trying to fix?? fail!

tried restoring to custom fw 3 times, same story.

problem, as i later found out? moving straight from 3.0 on 04.26.08 to pwnage-tinkered 05.11.07 messed up the baseband. only cure is restore to stock 05.11.07 on stock non-custom 3.1.2.

but i dont have shsh for 3.1.2, remember? and apple is no longer signing so saurik cant have it on file. managed to get 3.1.3 hashes in the window, though.

anyway, i seem stuck. luckily i found stock baseband extracted and decypted from official .img here: http://www.multiupload.com/QP9LNY4Y9V

unzipped and found 3 files: ICE2_05.11.07.fls and the corresponding .eep, MD5 checksum and -yeah!-bbupdaterextreme which is cool cos im on untethered.

so! used ifunbox to move the two baseband files and bbupdaterextreme to /tmp folder.

installed mobile terminal and, as root (y'know, type su, then alpine), fired off:

1. cmd /tmp (ie make /tmp the active folder)

2. chmod 755 BBUpdaterExtreme (setting owner permission. mind the caps!)

3. Launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist (gotta kill the radio before hacking/modifying it)

4. ./BBUpdaterExtreme update -f ICE2_05.11.07.fls -e ICE2_05.11.07.eep (erases your mangled baseband and writes the new stock baseband)

reboot, install blacksn0w RC2 and voila, as they say!

chances are a lot of people who mess with custom fw might find themselves in similar predicament. if you do, hope the above helps as it helped me.

ps: hey Tezz.

but, mortifyingly, true.

why do people who work in banks refer to themselves as "bankers"? you are NOT bankers. the people who own the banks are the bankers, the people who run the banks, sign your paychecks, tell you to jump and tell you how high to go about it. these are the bankers, the very same pr1cks and arses you suck and kiss for loans, recognition and advancement. these are bankers.

you, you are just EMPLOYEES, drones, footsoldiers, hired muscles, cannon fodder, the hoi polloi, the milling background props. you do not matter in the grand scheme of things.

that's why the very same greedy banksters who ruined the system get to sack you.

because drones are expendable.

there is no way ibru, akingbola et all could have stolen hundreds of billions without the knowledge and even connivance of soludo, yet he is celebrated as a hero and rewarded with PDP gubernatorial candidature. seems it is only in the south that someone could steal billions and be deemed innocenty. if roles had been reversed and waziri walked in ibrus shoes and vice versa, i can imagine the torrent of venom and hate spewed against northerners in general while ibru would be celebrated.

when northerners loot, they are condemned, when northerners arrest looters, they are still condemned while the rants of some here seem to suggest the reverse is true for southerners.

its high time we start appreciating genuine honest work (even half honest) when we see it irrespective of the political, tribal and religious leanings of the worker.

cleaning up the system is long overdue; for too long gangsters and banksters have been raping us till our butt is sore. we need to put a stop to this or at least cheer those who are doing their bit.

stop the hate; make tea, not war.

hmm, seems the fire is still raging even after some of us found and embraced life.

D9 is a darn good movie, one of the very few "real" alien movies. sure, nigerians were portrayed in a less than stellar way. so? all sorts of people do get portrayed in unsavory ways; it doesnt mean thats how they are. anyone seen cannibal holocaust?

besides, really the things some nigerians do when abroad is demeaning, demumanizing, degrading, and downright unacceptable. this is fact.

ok, so nigerians are portrayed as prostitutes; arent some nigerian ladies prostituting in most of europe and south africa?

so nigerians are portrayed as blackmarket operators; arent some nigerians engaged in shady business activities, even here on the mothership?

so nigerians are portrayed as cannibals; arent we deliberately perpetuating that image when the bulk of our home videos are rife with rituals and occultic tendencies involving severed limbs, blood and gore, juju, and enough witchcraft and wizardy to shame Hogwarts? and we think its clever artform!

is south africa any less showing us what they think of us, as a reflection of what some of us do?

Arabs are constatntly handed down the shorter end of the hollywood stick when the myth of the global jihadist/terrorist is given the silver screen expose. it doesnt mean all arabs are terrorists, but some definitely are. but if you accept hollywood urban legends as fact, then its easy to surmise all arabs are baby killers.

and not all germans were nazis either. and not all jews are shysters though most of them are schmucks.

for long we've been entertained at the expense of others, now its our turn.

people, its just a movie, for crying out loud. if you believe the south african government and people actually do mean thats all we are, then you might as well believe in the movie's aliens. at least they are a damn sight more real.

you schmucks.

sooo, from what i see here nigerians prefer corrupt bankers to be treated leniently while investors lose their investments on account of the shoddy and shady dealings of said bankers, abi?

na wa o! i feel pity for una! while the ruling class is gluttonly devouriang the so-called national cake and do so only because they wield the instruments of power, we should equally sit and watch as the private sectors eats away at the private cake?

do you people honestly believe the outrageous profits these silly banks post everyday while operating in a moribund national economy in the face of a world wide financial crisis? what sector is performing to generate 60billion net profit for one bank in just one quarter?

if what the bankers did isnt criminal, its certainly unethical. they live large, spend recklessly like middle eastern royals, and loan money to themselves and their cronies without due process, and you bunch of retards find all that ok? no wonder the ruling class is butt-bleeping you all. your uninformed complacency and bigotism is remarkable.

why did sanusi not wait until a full audit of all the banks before taking action, why this five? BECAUSE COLLECTIVELY THEY ACCOUNT FOR 40% OF THE TOTAL NON-PERFORMING DEBT OF THE ENTIRE BANKING INDUSTRY!!

these five banks stand the risk of dragging the entire industry to ruin, which means they are the most reckless, criminal and unhealthy of the lot. their capital base was dangerously eroded through sheer fraud, and logic dictates if you want to fix problems, start with the bigger ones. why wait until the rot eats the entire structure? if you had cancer, for the idiot using medical metaphors, would you rather wait for a full physical or would you immediately go in for chemotherapy first and stop the spread?

idiots! idiots! idiots!

you think all all those trillions of naira in he hands of the likes of the Jimohs and Otedolas and Chanchangis is all paper money with no owners? NO! this is real money with real owners, and i dare say they are damn glad someone is trying to recover their wealth.


me, i have some deposits and a few shares in these banks. im glad someone is looking after my meager wealth.

that son of a bitch soludo knew of the rot and aided in festering it but you morons celebrated his obvious incompetence. now that a northener, your pet hate, is trying to put sanity back into the system and prevent system collapse, you bigots are raising hell and bandying asinine conspiracy theories like intoxicated apes.

admit it, your grouse is because sanusi is a northerner.

with this level of idiocy, you nigerians really deserve your leaders AND your bankers.

my guy, try do ur research well before u send posts like these. google chrome OS is currently a netware because they do not currently have the technology to make the transition from a single browser to a full fledged operating system like windows  that is why their target is currently netbooks. Nevertheless according to their recent blog they have plans to develop the OS to suit various demands. give them a break kid,  they are just starting.

since you're dumb enough to call yourself simpson x, i guess the only simpson you are parallel with must be Homer just for sheer stupidity. there is an unspoken rule here: if you want to refute, try and be knowledgeable AT LEAST, you owe yourself that much.

so lets start dispensing with your ignorance.

simpsonX:
google chrome OS is currently a netware

this is not just patently false but plain stupid. one, there is NO class of OS known as NETWARE because the term is proprietary and defines Novell's Network operating System (NOS) and has nothing to do with Google's Cloud-oriented Web OS.

stupid stupid stupid! who even gave birth to you?

whenever was there a transition from a browser to a full fledged OS in the history of computing? every single browser has its foundation in NCSA Mosaic, and the core functionality has remained essentially unchanged. the purpose of browsers is very specialist and form a subset of the many functions provided by computers, functins which require an OS to run. you can have an OS without a browser but you cant have a browser without an OS. so where lies the basis for saying a browser even needs to warp into an OS? when google said Chrome is essentially a browser, they dont mean it literally; it means the OS is light and inclined towards a specific segment of general computing in which the emphasis is on web-based computing. Google is one of the major pushers towards cloud computing and you can see it in Search, Google Docs, Picasa Online, Google Calendar, Google Reader, Gmail, Google Voice, Google contacts etc. all the minutiae of your entire life is theoretically going up online, all your contacts, mails, docs, calendars, etc. so logically Chrome is supposed to make this easier. you dont need a clunky "full fledged" OS for cloud computing. this is the primary appeal of Netbooks.

in case you dont know, and clearly you dont, google does have the technology to create a full fledged OS, even a platform, such as they did with android. using linux to make a full desktop class OS is a matter of choice. besides, Google is rated as one of the top tech companies of our time.

netbooks being bigger brothers to MID, o not require the bling of Windows 7 or vista because they run on less powerful hardware, and because they are geared towards light web-based computing they require lightweight Operating Systems, that is why we have Linpus Linux, Moblin, and now Chrome OS.

except if you want to say Intel, whose technology powers 90% of computers, doesnt have the technology to create a full fledged OS and so has to settle for a lighter one in the Moblin.

given your stupidity its something you can do. and dont call me kid, you diphallic sperm mishap.

if i posted twice, its because NL's bots keep eatimg up my posts.

this is not just patently false but plain stupid. one, there is NO class of OS known as NETWARE because the term is proprietary and defines Novell's Network operating System (NOS) and has nothing to do with Google's Cloud-oriented Web OS.

2: you said

simpsonX:
they do not currently have the technology to make the transition from a single browser to a full fledged operating system like windows

stupid stupid stupid! who even gave birth to you?

whenever was there a transition from a browser to a full fledged OS in the history of computing? every single browser has its foundation in NCSA Mosaic, and the core functionality has remained essentially unchanged. the purpose of browsers is very specialist and form a subset of the many functions provided by computers, functins which require an OS to run. you can have an OS without a browser but you cant have a browser without an OS. so where lies the basis for saying a browser even needs to warp into an OS? when google said Chrome is essentially a browser, they dont mean it literally; it means the OS is light and inclined towards a specific segment of general computing in which the emphasis is on web-based computing. Google is one of the major pushers towards cloud computing and you can see it in Search, Google Docs, Picasa Online, Google Calendar, Google Reader, Gmail, Google Voice, Google contacts etc. all the minutiae of your entire life is theoretically going up online, all your contacts, mails, docs, calendars, etc. so logically Chrome is supposed to make this easier. you dont need a clunky "full fledged" OS for cloud computing. this is the primary appeal of Netbooks.

in case you dont know, and clearly you dont, google does have the technology to create a full fledged OS, even a platform, such as they did with android. using linux to make a full desktop class OS is a matter of choice. besides, Google is rated as one of the top tech companies of our time.

netbooks being bigger brothers to MID, o not require the bling of Windows 7 or vista because they run on less powerful hardware, and because they are geared towards light web-based computing they require lightweight Operating Systems, that is why we have Linpus Linux, Moblin, and now Chrome OS.

except if you want to say Intel, whose technology powers 90% of computers, doesnt have the technology to create a full fledged OS and so has to settle for a lighter one in the Moblin.

given your stupidity its something you can do. and dont call me kid, you diphallic sperm mishap.

crapware! crapware! crapware!

i dont know at what point you people will realize that chrome OS is a very light OS designed with netbooks/nettops in mind and not to directly challenge windows 7 which is not even offered on netbooks.

its main rivals are moblin and other lightweight linux flavors geared for netbooks.

and fo those confusing things and mixing them up, there is no seperate google OS called "web OS' besides the Palm OS running on the Pre. the google web OS is the chrome OS; its web OS because chrome OS is essentially a browser that can stand on its own. dont expect to start running Maya or Renderman on it.

its geared for internet users (social networking, surfing, emailing, blogging, etc).

stop comparing windows 7 with chrome OS. they are not on the same level. win 7's ONLY worthy competitor is Mac OS X.

but then, this poor economy makes cheap netbooks a viable alternative to the costlier fullblown laptops, and if chrome os sells well at precisely the time netbooks boom all over, MS may be in trouble; google docs will steal Office market share. of course, google docs are not available offline, but if Adobe Air is any indication, an offline component with sync ability is a done deal.

major ouch, right there. yay, Tezz is fighting my fight for me.

Fact: the next-next new thing is Web 3.0; cloud computing is becoming a reality and google knows it. the recent popularity of netbooks/nettops is proving that fact. we all know these are slim, bare-bones computers geared for the web. so, slimmer computers require slimmer OS, not clunky old windows or focusless Linux and that is where Google is headed with the Chrome OS (already some netbook makers are experimenting with Android).

Intel has Moblin, Nokia (which is rumored to build its own netbook) will no doubt go with a mature Maemo, and google is creating Chrome OS which is essentially an empowered browser.

Bigbrovar, stop bristling whenever anyone disses linux; its not like its the best or most widely used OS in the world; its still quirky as hell and intimidating for new comers. Tezz and myself are not Microsoft Fans, im not a primary windows user even (yay, OS X !) but we had to admit Windows 7 is everything Vista should've been.

so stop this huffing and puffing and embrace the power of THE PORTAL (Gates, DOS, and Windows).

"English naija guy in london" and you cant speak nor spell properly? wot are you doing in london? i suspect you are in alaba.

google is releasing an opensource OS for netbooks and full-spec machines next year. its name for now is Chrome.

no fair Ex, you're supposed to be in the ring not on the couch

im actually the Terminator, model TX-XVII, there are many of us mass-produced by Skynet. actually the fella in the ring is an earlier model running on windows 98. me, i run windows X, im quadruple quad core quantum series intel chipset with a 18 bajillion gig of RAM. i also have a water coolled system, 16 cylinder and double quad camshaft.

the enemy, Bigbrovar, runs on the very first iteration of Linux coded by Linux Torvalds. he runs on an 8088 processor with a 2bit instruction set, no GUI, few rudimentary drivers, basic Artificial Intelligence, and non-multitasking, lots of vacuum tubes. oh, and he takes punched cards.

a very old model machine just slightly above ENIAC

Dual Core:
**kicks him into the bloody ring**

yeaaaaaaa! go biggy!! go biggy!!!
rovar! rovar!! rovar!!!

i so want him dead mehn!

Remember, no rules! Just blood

cor! is that how you fight around here? how archaic. seems this Deathray vaporizeri brought along will come in handy.



@bigbrovar

maybe you might want to reserve some energy to piss you dissent at the new Google Chrome OS coming next year.

cabali:
what caused all of this ex?

truth be told, NL has reached saturation point, all the hot air blowing here does nothing but convey whiffs of halitosis, which i cannot stand if my purity and sanity be manitained.

texazzpete:
These are dark time indeed, my man. I fear the hand of the Sith in these matters,
May the Source guide us all in these dark days,

leave nairaland, i shall. tired of all this aimless ramblings i am. may the force tear the banal to a million meaty pieces.

final parting shot: google is brewing up its on PC Operating System. now we all suspected that, didnt we? goodbye MS, hello Google Vista!

can i join you guys? here, scoot over OYB, your lard ass is flowing into my seat.

<crunch, munch, slorp, gulp>

this fight looks interesting, my money's on the better looking guy, that Ex Inferis fella.

precisely the reason i intend to get banned; tired of arguing. if i post annything, creative/outrageous/scandalous/otherwise, it'll only prompt another asinine response which'd so piss me off i'll post back and the vicious loop goes on.

my work here is done, any idiot worth his foolishness can now unlock/jailbreak and more importantly, know nokia isnt the end-all be-all. so, time to return to the celestial abode.

so, bye all, its been mostly fun without the idiot breed (flyuche, logica) and E. Honda from japan who claimed the iphone has a tv tuner built-in in japan.

now seun, ban me. if my implorings have no effect then maybe my cuss will.

seun, Bleep you to the power of 10.

hardware keyboard is out for me, you wont catch me dead with a Palm Pre, or a Touch Pro. im all for virtual KBs as long as they're well-implemented, and it seems that way with the Hero.

im done with iPhone for now, time to test new waters.

My HTC Diamond died on me, found out that one drop on concrete is all it takes to kill it. before then, i love it. im really rooting for HTC these days.

meanwhile, wot does it take to get banned around here?

when the Bleep do i get banned? im tired of this sh1t.

ban me NOW, gaddamn it!
