| ndno | yep, i'm a moron, the git tree is a lot easier to use | 00:52 |
| ndno | lol | 00:52 |
| arrrghhh | ndno, i tried to tell you :P | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | also about your earlier stuffs | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | if you have a partition for data | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | and a partition for system image | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | that's the ideal situation as i understand it | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | also, AFAIK neopeek has system and data on that same ext2 partition | 00:54 |
| ndno | oh, ok... does that have a pro vs using data.img and doing a mount loop? | 00:54 |
| ndno | odz says it has more corruption issues | 00:54 |
| ndno | i was just going to see if i can play with it to see what difference it makes | 00:55 |
| arrrghhh | well i thought the point of breaking it out was the corruption was localized | 00:56 |
| arrrghhh | and not nearly as much | 00:56 |
| arrrghhh | but again, that's breaking both out | 00:56 |
| arrrghhh | system and data | 00:56 |
| ndno | yeah, system has quite a few files in there | 00:56 |
| ndno | hey, i remembered you recommend not using a swapfile | 00:57 |
| ndno | was that mainly due to SD deterioration | 00:57 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 00:57 |
| arrrghhh | i mean you can | 00:57 |
| arrrghhh | just be prepared to potentially slaughter your SD card | 00:57 |
| ndno | yeah, ffkip911 was asking me how and i found the swapper 2 apk | 00:58 |
| ndno | he wanted to increase his free RAM | 00:58 |
| ndno | by adding virtual mem | 00:58 |
| ndno | doesn't the same thing happen with data.img? | 00:59 |
| ndno | i guess it's not constantly be written to as it's in a swapfile | 00:59 |
| arrrghhh | no | 00:59 |
| arrrghhh | you have to allot swap (typically) | 00:59 |
| ndno | swapper 2 has a nice feature that allows android to delete the old one and create a new one after each reboot | 01:00 |
| arrrghhh | huh | 01:01 |
| arrrghhh | i guess it carves space into the data partition? | 01:01 |
| ndno | this in effect emulates the wearleveling feature you see in the nand driver | 01:01 |
| ndno | meaning when it creates a new swapfile, it stores in a different location on the SD card | 01:01 |
| ndno | so that the whole SD card will wear out more evenly | 01:02 |
| ndno | i think that's how the file system under the NAND driver works | 01:02 |
| ndno | the oob data contains history of how often a block is used | 01:03 |
| arrrghhh | yea, that's way over my realm of understanding | 01:03 |
| arrrghhh | which.... isn't that great :P | 01:03 |
| ndno | so that a new write is stored in a less-used block | 01:04 |
| ndno | it sucks for speed but good for the life of the device | 01:04 |
| ndno | i got some cheap 2GB sd card for $5 so i thought why not... if it goes back, i'm just out $5 :) | 01:05 |
| arrrghhh | heh | 01:06 |
| arrrghhh | nice | 01:06 |
| ndno | anyways, have a good night... just leaving work now on the west coast | 01:06 |

| Tandyman100 | DroidExplorer is supposed to work with XDAndroid, right? | 11:10 |
| Tandyman100 | Because I have usb debugging enabled, phone is plugged in, but DroidExplorer is not seeing it :( | 11:10 |
| rpierce99 | did the drivers install properly? | 11:10 |
| Tandyman100 | I didn't get any errors, so I'm assuming so. | 11:11 |
| rpierce99 | did you install pdanet? | 11:11 |
| Tandyman100 | erm, no. | 11:11 |
| Tandyman100 | I'll go do that.. | 11:12 |
| rpierce99 | well it just installs the drivers for you | 11:12 |
| rpierce99 | if you somehow managed to install all of the proper drivers | 11:12 |
| rpierce99 | you wouldn't really need it | 11:12 |
| rpierce99 | but most people need it | 11:12 |
| Tandyman100 | ah | 11:12 |
| Tandyman100 | do I need to install it on my phone, or just install the windows program? | 11:12 |
| rpierce99 | windows | 11:12 |
| Tandyman100 | ok | 11:12 |
| Tandyman100 | boy I can't wait for a ROM version of XDAndroid :P | 11:13 |
| Tandyman100 | argh | 11:14 |
| Tandyman100 | driver installation failed, err=0xe000023f | 11:14 |
| Tandyman100 | nuts | 11:14 |
| rpierce99 | what version of windows | 11:16 |
| Tandyman100 | 7 Ultimate 32-bit | 11:16 |
| Tandyman100 | SP1 | 11:16 |
| Tandyman100 | perhaps I could do this via bluetooth in some manner? | 11:18 |
| rpierce99 | you can actually adb over wifi too, but I don't know if droid explorer supports it | 11:19 |
| Tandyman100 | ...do I need to have adb installed on my phone for this to work? | 11:19 |
| Tandyman100 | or am I completely misunderstanding what adb is :P | 11:19 |
| rpierce99 | no adb is usb debugging as far as the phone is concerned | 11:20 |
| Tandyman100 | ok | 11:20 |
| rpierce99 | Do you have Android Phone and Android Composite ADB Interface in device manager? | 11:22 |
| rpierce99 | the latter is a child of the former | 11:22 |
| Tandyman100 | No | 11:24 |
| rpierce99 | so according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-723432.html that error might be driver signing, in that thread is a link to disable driver signing, give it a shot | 11:25 |
| * Tandyman100 needs to learn to google better | 11:26 | |

| Tandyman100 | #android said I needed to ask you guys :P | 11:32 |
| rpierce99 | yes, they removed support for them because they make our devices absolutely crawl | 11:32 |

| kanox | hey anyone here? | 14:07 |
| *** GPFerror has joined #xdandroid | 14:07 | |
| rpierce99 | 37 to be exact | 14:07 |
| kanox | lol ok, i was wondering if i could be of any assistance, i recently found out about phonegap and their autobuild site for making apks, would it be any help if i made one and distributed it with links to all the newest rootfs, zimage etc | 14:09 |
| kanox | im not sure if it would help but it would be good promotional material | 14:09 |
| kanox | proof of concept http://www.mediafire.com/?4zgupib43x6u4qg | 14:11 |
| rpierce99 | are you offering to host and maintain an autobuild service for all of the components of xdandroid? | 14:11 |
| Tandyman100 | ooh, yay | 14:11 |
| Tandyman100 | my body glove is here for the Touch Pro :D | 14:11 |
| kanox | lol im not that l33t yet, if i could i would | 14:11 |
| rpierce99 | then i'm not sure what you are asking | 14:11 |
| kanox | this is just an app with links to the newest of the new | 14:11 |
| rpierce99 | and with an android app, what would it do with the files | 14:12 |
| rpierce99 | or would it just alert you to updates | 14:13 |
| kanox | bear with me here, im trying to figure out some way to help, i appreciate what you guys do, im working on the alerting to updates part at the moment, | 14:13 |
| rpierce99 | don't take my questions the wrong way, I'm simply trying to understand what you are proposing, I honestly am not following entirely | 14:14 |
| kanox | lol now that you say it, im not quite following what im trying to get at either, basically i want to create an app that alerts you when a new zImage or rootfs etc comes out, its in the very early planning stages so far, to keep people up to date on releases so maybe instead of noobs asking so many questions they can look there first | 14:15 |
| kanox | kinda make it easier on you guys | 14:15 |
| Tandyman100 | I think that would be a great idea | 14:17 |
| rpierce99 | personally I see it as a valuable app, but you certainly don't need permission or anything to make the app and post it, if you want it integrated into the default system image that would be up to stinebd, and it would probably depend on reliability, code quality, usefulness, etc, meaning it would probably need to be done and tested first | 14:17 |
| Tandyman100 | an app for Android that comes installed on XDAndroid builds, and alerts you when new components become available on the XDAndroid site. | 14:17 |
| Tandyman100 | That's a great idea. | 14:17 |
| Tandyman100 | If you can pull it off, I can't imagine stinebd saying no... | 14:17 |
| kanox | im working at it while we speak, hopefully ill have something up and going soon and ill keep you guys posted | 14:18 |
| kanox | im pretty broke so i cant contribute much but my time and effort | 14:18 |
| *** Erikson has joined #xdandroid | 14:18 | |
| rpierce99 | yeah just post it up on xda & ppcg when you get it running and let us all run it for a bit and give feedback, if it's determined to be valuable it could be cool to get it in the image eventually | 14:18 |
| kanox | cool, i wanted to get the thumbs up from you guys before i did anything to far into it | 14:19 |
| *** mes has joined #xdandroid | 14:22 | |
| rpierce99 | well nothing myself or Tandyman100 should be considered official or representative of the project as a whole, but if you wanted the opinion of 2 random guys in IRC, you got it :) | 14:23 |
| kanox | hey disregard that proof of concept that i posted lol it was going in the wrong direction of what i was offering to do | 14:23 |
| kanox | hey i see you guys on here all the time, if you guys like the idea it should fly pretty well | 14:23 |
| *** t3g has quit IRC | 14:30 | |
| Tandyman100 | I am getting REALLY GOOD at making Android unstable :P | 14:31 |
| Tandyman100 | Also, that app idea of Kanox' would probably be a LOT easier/the app would be lighter with some special server-side code on the XDAndroid site. | 14:32 |
| Tandyman100 | I dunno though | 14:32 |
| Tandyman100 | perhaps just a server-side thing that sends out a 'YO WE GOT SOME NOO STUFFZ FO' YA' message to a teeny tiny client that pops up a "yo dawg, noo stuff. go git it" message on the phone. | 14:33 |
| Tandyman100 | OR, a subscripted email that gives email alerts to new stuff | 14:33 |
| Tandyman100 | so it's easy to do, but not a mandatory part of the build | 14:33 |
| Tandyman100 | It'd be cool if the builds had the functionality to upgrade their own kernel, but I'm pretty sure that's not possible, right? | 14:34 |
| rpierce99 | i've been surprised with what linux lets you overwrite when it is running, I wouldn't be surprised it if was possible | 14:34 |
| *** xawen1 has joined #xdandroid | 14:35 | |
| rpierce99 | it could absolutely download system image update.zip and throw it in the proper location so that it updates on the next reboot | 14:36 |
| rpierce99 | ala the carriers OTA updates | 14:36 |
| Tandyman100 | ^see? | 14:37 |
| Tandyman100 | that should totally be implemented | 14:38 |
| *** xawen has quit IRC | 14:38 | |
| Tandyman100 | this is where i leave because this is where actual work needs to be done. :P | 14:38 |
| Tandyman100 | (jk) | 14:38 |
| Tandyman100 | but someone needs to toss this idea up the chain of command | 14:38 |
| Tandyman100 | to whoever the 1337 programmer around here is :P | 14:38 |
| rpierce99 | sounds like kanox has it under control | 14:38 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 14:38 |
| Tandyman100 | Alerts are a good idea. | 14:39 |
| Tandyman100 | Eventually though, auto-updates or manual updates would be ideal. | 14:39 |
| Tandyman100 | scratch that, a 100% stable all-features-working build of XDAndroid would be ideal :P | 14:39 |
| Tandyman100 | (though froyo is withing shouting distance of that already, and Gingerbread is only slightly behind) | 14:40 |

| Tandyman100 | ..tmi, perhaps? | 15:10 |
| Xethron | But if I bend my head I can touch it :D | 15:10 |
| Tandyman100 | why do I need to know if you can touch your nipples with your hair | 15:10 |
| Xethron | Well, to demonstrate the length of my hair | 15:10 |
| Xethron | Besides... The idea is to grow it till there... (location unmentioned)... That will be the desired length. | 15:11 |
| Tandyman100 | ...you want hair down to your waist? | 15:11 |
| Xethron | But dunno... Maybe ill just keep growing it | 15:11 |
| Xethron | NO! Thats really long | 15:11 |
| * Tandyman100 is confused as to whether Xethron is male or female | 15:11 | |
| Tandyman100 | I never realized till now how gender-neutral IRC is. | 15:12 |
| Tandyman100 | (wrong word, I meant slanted) | 15:12 |
| Xethron | Yea, it is very | 15:12 |
| Tandyman100 | You just kind of assume that everyone you see on it is a guy. | 15:12 |
| Xethron | Hmm... I dunno... I just... Dont picture people on IRC with a gender anymore :P | 15:12 |
| Tandyman100 | Then again, I've met everyone from bi girls to transvestite guys to gay guys that live down the street from me and want to go out with me (ackward as hell) | 15:13 |
| Xethron | Unless the nick gives a clear indication | 15:13 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 15:13 |
| * Tandyman100 points at the 'man' in his nick | 15:13 | |
| Xethron | like that for instance | 15:13 |
| Tandyman100 | Nothing is as ackward as a guy you used to know seeing you on the internet and going "hey man oh by the way I'm gay now wanna go out?" | 15:13 |
| Tandyman100 | I don't know whether to be flattered or disgusted. So I was both. | 15:14 |
| Xethron | lol | 15:14 |
| Xethron | Nothing as ackward as knowing a 'guy' on IRC and then later finding out you only thought she's male because, well, everyone on IRC is male... :P | 15:15 |

| Tandyman100 | it's just starting from scratch | 15:25 |
| rpierce99 | data.img is where all your crap is stored | 15:25 |
| rpierce99 | delete that and you'll "start from scratch" | 15:26 |
| Tandyman100 | so deleting data.img is the easy way to start over in android? | 15:26 |
| Tandyman100 | ..that's a helluvalot easier than erasing my SD card and copying the contents of my edited FRX05 over | 15:26 |

| TheDeadCPU | O______________o | 15:49 |
| Tandyman100 | I'm curious: on the Raph800, what is the reasoning behind having the LEDs fade in and out when it's off the charger, when in Winmo has them do that only when it's ON the charger? It also seems that they are reacting to my proximity or the accellerometer or something, because as soon as I lift it off the table, it stops glowing, but only if there's substantial movement. | 15:50 |
| Tandyman100 | It just seems like it's little things like that that would make the batteries last longer. | 15:51 |
| Tandyman100 | or I'm just being nitpicky <-more likely | 15:51 |
| arrrghhh | sleep state | 15:51 |
| arrrghhh | you fool | 15:51 |
| TheDeadCPU | Because the fading proves that it's in sleep lol | 15:51 |
| arrrghhh | uhm... yea | 15:51 |
| arrrghhh | if you want to change it, LED effects | 15:51 |
| arrrghhh | it's in the AndroidApps folder | 15:51 |
| rpierce99 | leds work on the raph800? | 15:52 |
| rpierce99 | from userland? | 15:52 |
| Tandyman100 | I installed LED effects, but I have no clue how to use it :P | 15:52 |
| arrrghhh | rpierce99, yup | 15:52 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, oy | 15:52 |
| Tandyman100 | app pops up, tells me that LED effects controls LEDs. Ok...? | 15:52 |
| Tandyman100 | ohwait | 15:53 |
| arrrghhh | you don't get any options? | 15:53 |
| arrrghhh | damn kids. | 15:53 |
| Tandyman100 | perhaps I should try pushing the menu hardwarekey | 15:53 |
| Tandyman100 | I didn't see any onscreen controls, dismissed the application :P | 15:53 |
| arrrghhh | i thought there were just options, been forever since i used that bitch | 15:53 |
| arrrghhh | rpierce99, led effects was actually written for raph/diam | 15:53 |
| arrrghhh | worked great when i had a raph | 15:54 |
| arrrghhh | over a year ago :P | 15:54 |
| Tandyman100 | heh | 15:54 |
| Tandyman100 | yep | 15:54 |

| arrrghhh | there's a ton of options in that app | 15:55 |
| Tandyman100 | ther it is | 15:55 |
| arrrghhh | you can configure basically anything with that LED | 15:55 |
| Tandyman100 | When the phone is sleeping, it 'breathes' | 15:55 |
| arrrghhh | i would have it do "something" | 15:55 |
| Tandyman100 | woah you can make it rotate :o | 15:55 |
| arrrghhh | just what it does it up to you | 15:55 |
| arrrghhh | yup | 15:55 |
| Tandyman100 | ok, this is the coolest app the world has ever seen. | 15:55 |

| arrrghhh | over and over and over again | 15:57 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 15:57 |
| Tandyman100 | Also, why would I need the LEDs to prove it's sleeping? | 15:58 |
| Tandyman100 | So I can tell it's asleep and not frozen or something? | 15:58 |
| arrrghhh | basically | 15:59 |
| arrrghhh | we haven't perfected sleep | 15:59 |
| arrrghhh | so there's an indicator that it is properly sleeping | 16:00 |
| arrrghhh | you can certainly disable it, at your own peril. | 16:00 |

| Tandyman100 | and took FOREVER to get to %98 | 17:36 |
| stinebd | hey pal, we put our %s after the number where i come from | 17:36 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 17:36 |
| arrrghhh | and we know the battery meter is very inaccurate. | 17:36 |
| Tandyman100 | no kidding :P | 17:39 |
| Tandyman100 | stinebd I know, I just forgot the first time, and didn't want to look inconsistant :P | 17:39 |

| Tandyman100 | </more whining> | 18:04 |
| * Tandyman100 is going to put </awesome> on his gravestone | 18:04 | |
| Tandyman100 | also having issues with android.process.acore crashing all the time | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | argh | 18:07 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, but the awesome never began | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | perhaps this just isn't worth me using as my main OS atm. | 18:07 |
| arrrghhh | delete data.img | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | ooohhh | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | I just did. | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | This is fresh, I've just installed two things. | 18:07 |
| arrrghhh | did you wait after it booted? | 18:07 |
| arrrghhh | i dunno | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | blach | 18:07 |
| arrrghhh | stuff FC's if it doesn't have any processor cycles to use | 18:07 |
| Tandyman100 | FC's? | 18:08 |
| arrrghhh | uh | 18:08 |
| arrrghhh | i assume it's asking you to force close acore | 18:08 |
| arrrghhh | no? | 18:08 |
| Tandyman100 | Yeah | 18:08 |
| Tandyman100 | oh | 18:08 |
| Tandyman100 | oh I see | 18:09 |
| Tandyman100 | hmm | 18:09 |
| Tandyman100 | so the problem is that Froyo is a bigger resource whore than Winmo6.5.3, plus the fact my phone is rubbish. | 18:09 |
| arrrghhh | oy | 18:10 |
| arrrghhh | i'm gonna have to ask you to leave. | 18:10 |
| arrrghhh | you can't wait for it to finish booting? | 18:10 |
| arrrghhh | on a fresh data.img, after the lock screen shows up there's still a TON of crap happening in the background | 18:10 |
| Tandyman100 | It'd been booted for upwards of 5 minutes. | 18:11 |
| Tandyman100 | (see? I'm really good at pissing people off.) :( | 18:11 |
| Tandyman100 | So I should, after deleting data.img, let it sit there postboot for 10 minutes or so, then reboot again, then I can go nuts? | 18:13 |
| arrrghhh | well | 18:13 |
| arrrghhh | mutlitasking doesn't really work either | 18:13 |
| arrrghhh | i mean it does | 18:13 |
| arrrghhh | but our phones can't handle it | 18:13 |
| Tandyman100 | Yeah. | 18:14 |
| arrrghhh | i download 5 apps from the market when it updates | 18:14 |
| arrrghhh | and the thing turns into a brick | 18:14 |
| arrrghhh | it's sooooooo slow | 18:14 |
| arrrghhh | so perhaps that's what the problem is? i dunno. | 18:14 |
| Tandyman100 | I find downloading more than one thing equals cccrrrraaaawwwwllliiinnnggg | 18:14 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 18:14 |
| Tandyman100 | I forgot that, downloaded 7 things at once plus the 'regular' apps were updating. | 18:14 |
| Tandyman100 | Android just gave up and hot-resetted :P | 18:15 |
| Tandyman100 | hot-reset* | 18:15 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 18:15 |
| arrrghhh | yea the ril doesn't handle that yet | 18:15 |
| arrrghhh | wistilt2 is fixing that | 18:15 |
| arrrghhh | but CDMA as usual is slowing up the progres | 18:15 |
| arrrghhh | progress | 18:15 |
| Tandyman100 | What is it about the poor CDMA that makes it such a loner? Is it just the fact that *noone* has one? | 18:17 |
| Tandyman100 | I saw some little kid the other day with a GSM Touch Pro with the front-facing camera. Guess where this expensive device is? | 18:17 |
| stinebd | it's the fact that it's made out of retardons | 18:17 |
| Tandyman100 | Her mouth. | 18:17 |
| arrrghhh | retardons | 18:17 |
| arrrghhh | heh | 18:17 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, it's just different | 18:17 |
| stinebd | by different he means crappy | 18:17 |
| arrrghhh | and our devs are from all over the world | 18:17 |
| Tandyman100 | I felt like slapping both her and her mom and saving the poor phone. But I didn't. Because then i'd get arrested. | 18:17 |
| Tandyman100 | ok, I understand better now. | 18:18 |
| arrrghhh | cdma is pretty much only in the US | 18:18 |

| Tandyman100 | Is there any way for a windows machine to extract or edit the contents of data.img? | 18:20 |
| arrrghhh | dunno | 18:20 |
| stinebd | it's a regular old ext2 image | 18:20 |
| arrrghhh | who cares | 18:20 |
| *** programmer8922 has joined #xdandroid | 18:20 | |
| stinebd | so there's a way | 18:20 |
| Tandyman100 | Oh, ok. | 18:20 |
| arrrghhh | there's some tool to look at ext2 partitions on winblows | 18:20 |
| Tandyman100 | That explains a great many things, actually. | 18:20 |
| Tandyman100 | I'm just too lazy to reboot into Debian right now :P | 18:20 |
| stinebd | there are actually ext2 filesystem drivers for windows, but i'm not sure if they can mount an image | 18:20 |
| Tandyman100 | ...though there's always VirtualBox... | 18:21 |
| stinebd | yeah but that's too free | 18:21 |
| Tandyman100 | huh? | 18:21 |
| stinebd | i hear most people like to pay for stuff | 18:21 |
| stinebd | or say they'll pay for it and download a torrent | 18:22 |

| stinebd | absurd | 18:22 |
| Tandyman100 | whaa? | 18:23 |
| stinebd | you say that, yet you're looking for a way to mount data.img on windows | 18:23 |

| Stumpyt76 | HI Guy. Just wondering if anyone has had problems with using Xdandroid with AUS Next G network. It is a GMS 850 Mhzs. | 18:34 |
| arrrghhh | dunno | 18:35 |
| arrrghhh | i'm assuming you are? | 18:35 |
| Stumpyt76 | my phone is a DIAM130 | 18:36 |
| Tandyman100 | woah, since when did winmo have THAT? | 18:37 |
| Tandyman100 | Rightclick on an executable, there's an 'add to start menu' button | 18:37 |
| rpierce99 | you right-clicked in winmo? that's impressive | 18:37 |
| arrrghhh | lmao | 18:37 |
| arrrghhh | long press i assume | 18:37 |
| Tandyman100 | click-n-hold :P | 18:37 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 18:37 |
| arrrghhh | Stumpyt76, that doesn't exist | 18:38 |
| arrrghhh | afaik | 18:38 |
| arrrghhh | :P | 18:38 |
| Tandyman100 | that makes it even easier to add a HaRET icon so I can get OUT of winmo even faster XD | 18:38 |
| arrrghhh | probably some 100 variant | 18:38 |
| rpierce99 | Tandyman100: I put it in the quick lunch area of sense, i don't even have to open the start menu | 18:38 |
| rpierce99 | or scroll | 18:38 |
| rpierce99 | i just tap froyo | 18:38 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah, that's what I'm doing | 18:38 |
| Tandyman100 | though I just got hit with the unsigned apps bug | 18:39 |
| Tandyman100 | now I can't launch it at all | 18:39 |
| Tandyman100 | ...and sense crashed. | 18:39 |
| Tandyman100 | hmm | 18:39 |
| Tandyman100 | the shortcut doesn't work, but it does work to launch it through filemanager. | 18:39 |

| arrrghhh | o computer shop | 18:48 |
| arrrghhh | you can legally work at your age? | 18:48 |
| Tandyman100 | honestly though, fixing computers is what I do in my spare time here, get a job at a computer store, and I'll just do that and get paid :D | 18:48 |
| Tandyman100 | no | 18:48 |
| arrrghhh | i uh... illegally worked at your age | 18:48 |
| Tandyman100 | I can't legally work at my age. | 18:48 |
| Tandyman100 | But this guy grew up around lawyers | 18:48 |
| Tandyman100 | he has some fancy phrase he's going to call me so I'm not technically 'working' there per se. | 18:49 |
| rpierce99 | I worked for geek squad for like 6 years | 18:49 |
| Tandyman100 | rpierce99 so YOU'RE the reason they stink so much! | 18:49 |
| Tandyman100 | joking, | 18:49 |
| rpierce99 | no i'm the reason they're not worse :) | 18:49 |
| arrrghhh | geek squad is a joke | 18:50 |
| stinebd | geek squad is awesome | 18:50 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 18:50 |
| Tandyman100 | geek squad is rubbish. | 18:50 |
| rpierce99 | i worked on the internal support team, when the dumb geek squad agents didn't know what they were doing they called me | 18:50 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 18:50 |
| arrrghhh | in college they didn't hire me | 18:50 |
| Tandyman100 | whever I see one of their 'quick response vehicles' I think in my mine "someone just got screwed over again" | 18:50 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 18:50 |
| stinebd | arrrghhh: they don't hire anybody who demonstrates a propensity for thought | 18:50 |
| arrrghhh | they bend people over | 18:50 |
| arrrghhh | stinebd, o right | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | what does that say about rpierce99 ? | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | LOL jk rpierce99 :P | 18:51 |
| rpierce99 | :) | 18:51 |
| stinebd | exactly | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | weird thing is | 18:51 |
| rpierce99 | seriously though, that's best buy management, not geek squad | 18:51 |
| Tandyman100 | LOL | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | it was one of the best-feeling job interviews i've ever had. | 18:51 |
| rpierce99 | there are some REALLY good people in geek squad | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | which was really odd | 18:51 |
| stinebd | they actually interview people? | 18:51 |
| Tandyman100 | with their rep... | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | stinebd, yea | 18:51 |
| Tandyman100 | lol stinebd | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | interview was awesome too | 18:51 |
| arrrghhh | my current job i thought the interview went horrible | 18:51 |
| stinebd | seriously, i thought that was one of those jobs where you show up with a GED and get the position | 18:52 |
| arrrghhh | been there almost 3 years, must've done something right | 18:52 |
| Tandyman100 | "Oh, you say you know where the any key is? You're hired! We've been trying to find someone who knows that for AGES!" | 18:52 |
| arrrghhh | o snap | 18:52 |
| arrrghhh | angry angry stinebd | 18:52 |
| stinebd | not angry | 18:53 |
| stinebd | i just thought they had standards for their hiring which mirror their quality | 18:53 |
| rpierce99 | stinebd: thats most of the problem, guess who hires for GS? BBY management, most have no idea what to look for | 18:53 |
| stinebd | that says something about arrrghhh doesn't it? | 18:53 |
| Tandyman100 | oh | 18:53 |
| Tandyman100 | LOL | 18:53 |
| arrrghhh | i was interviewed by the geek squad super | 18:53 |
| arrrghhh | AFAIK | 18:54 |
| arrrghhh | meh | 18:54 |

| Tandyman100 | lol | 20:31 |
| TheDeadCPU | try pulling out the keyboard | 20:31 |
| Tandyman100 | so that's somewhat normal, right? | 20:31 |
| Tandyman100 | erm, too late. I just rebooted. | 20:31 |
| arrrghhh | eh somewhat | 20:31 |
| arrrghhh | so you don't even know | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | you gotta realize if there's stuff going on in the bg | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | waking is PAINFUL | 20:32 |
| Tandyman100 | All the downloads and installs had finished | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | and sometimes it really is dead | 20:32 |
| Tandyman100 | literally RIGHT BEFORE | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | the issue is being addressed on RHOD | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | and there's several theories for SoD | 20:32 |
| arrrghhh | hopefully some of it will trickle down to your junk. | 20:33 |
| arrrghhh | :D | 20:33 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 20:33 |
| Tandyman100 | So now i've expirienced the 'delightful' SoD I've heard so much about ;) | 20:33 |
| arrrghhh | never experienced one? | 20:33 |
| Tandyman100 | not till now. | 20:33 |
| arrrghhh | you really are a winmo phanboi huh | 20:33 |
| Tandyman100 | been using it till a couple days ago when I started using XDAndroid as my main phone OS | 20:34 |
| arrrghhh | yea... i don't know if android is ready for 24/7 yet | 20:34 |
| arrrghhh | i've been close | 20:34 |
| arrrghhh | using it almost 100% | 20:34 |
| arrrghhh | but i don't think the raph is up to snuff yet | 20:34 |
| rpierce99 | i haven't used winmo in months | 20:35 |
| Tandyman100 | Android looks nice and all, but I'm kind of doubting it for some of the stuff I like to do... that is, IRC while GTalk is open, browsing multiple tabs in Opera, and listening to music at the same time, and switching between them. | 20:35 |
| Tandyman100 | But Android is just impossible to pass up :P{ | 20:35 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, android can do all that crap i would think. | 20:35 |
| Tandyman100 | I don't know if it could multitask like that as well as winmo... I dunno though. | 20:35 |
| arrrghhh | i didn't even know you could gtalk in winmo lol | 20:35 |
| arrrghhh | dude i can't multitask with winmo | 20:35 |
| Tandyman100 | I once opened up every program I had installed (18 of 'em, I think) and ran them all at once, switching between them at will. No slowdown whatsoever. | 20:36 |
| arrrghhh | ok, you should just stick to winmo | 20:36 |
| Tandyman100 | I use a program called TaskFacade for it in Winmo. Map it to a hardware button, push it, and all your running programs become 'tiles' on the screen. | 20:36 |
| Tandyman100 | I dunno, I'm starting to really like Android :D | 20:36 |
| * TheDeadCPU headbangs | 20:38 | |
| Tandyman100 | The winmo interface, while there are a lot of shells, is kinda stale. | 20:38 |

| nbn | then I tried putting the phone next to window | 21:38 |
| nbn | where it should be able to catch GPS | 21:39 |
| nbn | but after a while, the screen went black and I wasn't able to wake the phone again | 21:39 |
| arrrghhh | gps works | 21:39 |
| arrrghhh | but helps if you use quickgps in winmo first | 21:40 |
| arrrghhh | netloc doesn't work if you're CDMA | 21:40 |
| nbn | GSM (raph100) | 21:40 |
| nbn | but i also tried c:geo | 21:40 |
| nbn | and it got fixed ok | 21:40 |
| nbn | now I also tried GBX0A, there the phone just freezes after few seconds | 21:41 |
| nbn | no black screen like with FRX | 21:41 |
| arrrghhh | dude | 21:42 |
| arrrghhh | gps doesn't work on gb | 21:42 |
| arrrghhh | read the post | 21:42 |
| nbn | ok, this makes sense :) | 21:42 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 21:42 |
| nbn | I'll put back FRX and try the quickgps | 21:44 |

| Tandyman100 | what happens if you don't use quickgps in winmo before booting android? Does it just take bloody ages to find sats? | 23:13 |
| arrrghhh | basically | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | although we were just talking about that in htc-linux oddly enough | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | i just had a case where it locked on extremely quickly | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | i was moving in a car | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | but usually it takes 10+ mins | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | it took like 20sec and was locked. | 23:14 |
| Tandyman100 | wow | 23:15 |
| Tandyman100 | One time GMaps on android found me 'within 2 meters' | 23:15 |
| Tandyman100 | I was stoked, started walking around in little circles and watching it move :D | 23:15 |
| Tandyman100 | GPS is fascinating :P | 23:15 |
| arrrghhh | lol yea | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | my dad got my mom a tp2 recently | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | and was using it to get directions | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | but didn't turn on gps in gmaps | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | cuz i guess on his bb there's no option to turn it on/off | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | so they were using netloc | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | and ofc it was WAY off | 23:16 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:16 |
| arrrghhh | he said he was going to get a new phone for her lol | 23:16 |
| *** MassStash has joined #xdandroid | 23:16 | |
| Tandyman100 | I find that it has a tendancy to just 'snap' location to the nearest rode to your estimated position with netloc | 23:17 |
| arrrghhh | nah it'll put you thru buildings | 23:17 |
| arrrghhh | in a field | 23:17 |
| arrrghhh | wherever | 23:17 |
| Tandyman100 | hm | 23:18 |
| * Tandyman100 turned it on once and SNAP it was on the nearest street, then SNAP it was between them, then SNAP it was back on the street. | 23:18 | |
| arrrghhh | you talkin google nav? | 23:18 |
| arrrghhh | or maps | 23:18 |
| Tandyman100 | gmaps | 23:18 |
| Tandyman100 | i think... | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | might've been nav. | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | I could be confused | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | it certainly wouldn't be the first time :{P | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | this is winmo that i'm talking about too | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | the situation with my father | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | ah | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | I'm talking about Android here. | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | my mom might be able to handle droid when it's more stable | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | but not at this stage | 23:19 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | they were most certainly in winmo. | 23:19 |
| arrrghhh | either way, i'm sure the GPS wasn't on :P | 23:20 |
| Tandyman100 | "OMG IT CRASHED ALL MY APPS ARE GONE AND MY EMAILS AND TEXTS!!!!111" | 23:20 |
| arrrghhh | eh she doesn't use the phone for that | 23:20 |
| Tandyman100 | i remember when people thought they would lose all their data by turning their computer off completely as opposed to just sleep mode or something. Even as far as buying UPSes so they'd never turn off all the way. | 23:20 |
| arrrghhh | god knows why he got her a tp2 | 23:20 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:20 |
| arrrghhh | i think he just wanted her to have a world phone. | 23:20 |
| Tandyman100 | my sister saw me messing with some lighter app thingie on Android | 23:21 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | "OMG UR PHONE CAN DO APPS CAN U DO THAT ON OUR PHONE?" | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | my sister and mom share an SCH-I750. | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | 760* | 23:21 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | ...yeah, no. Not gonna be running android :P | 23:21 |
| arrrghhh | my mom TURNS THE PHONE OFF all the time | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | "Android? what's that? I just want apps?" | 23:21 |
| arrrghhh | she said if she's not using it, why have it on | 23:21 |
| Tandyman100 | lool | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | so no body can reach her unless she's going to use it | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | or recently used itl | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | it* | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | ofc she's usually at home | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | especially since she reitred this year | 23:22 |
| Tandyman100 | I would show her the Opera app store, but that's a bit hard to use and doesn't completely work all the time. Plus I don't have a java runtime installed on the I760 so half the stuff in the Opera store wouldn't work :P | 23:22 |
| arrrghhh | heh | 23:23 |
| Tandyman100 | the i760 was a nice phone, though. The screen and touchscreen were godawful, though. mushy as hell, QVGA, can't do ANYTHING without the stylus. | 23:24 |
| Tandyman100 | There's no stiff plastic seperating the lcd from the resistive panel, so you were literally pushing down directly on the screen itself | 23:25 |
| Tandyman100 | then you get scared to break it | 23:25 |
| arrrghhh | heh | 23:25 |
| Tandyman100 | then you wonder why the hell you got it in the first place | 23:25 |
| Tandyman100 | then you use the WONDERFUL keyboard | 23:25 |
| arrrghhh | yea my sister got some lg android phone | 23:25 |
| arrrghhh | has no clue how to use it | 23:25 |
| Tandyman100 | only 3 rows, but fantastic ergonomics | 23:25 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:25 |
| arrrghhh | i was telling her about depositing checks with the phone | 23:25 |
| arrrghhh | using USAA's mobile app | 23:26 |
| arrrghhh | and my dad immediately chimes in | 23:26 |
| Tandyman100 | I love people with android phones. "umm... i can do WHAT NOW?" | 23:26 |
| arrrghhh | "that's not secure, how the hell do they get away with that?" | 23:26 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:26 |
| Tandyman100 | Here's what I've found out in my expirience: | 23:26 |
| arrrghhh | i was like... how is that any less secure than fraudulent checks in person to banks? | 23:26 |
| arrrghhh | they find out eventually, either way... | 23:26 |
| Tandyman100 | Android users. most of them are clueless about the true power of their device. Just buy it because it's popular. The other extreme is the enthusiast/developer. | 23:27 |
| Tandyman100 | Winmo users. Love their phone, but still aren't totally sure what their phone can do. | 23:27 |
| Tandyman100 | iPhone users. LOL MOMMY BOUGHT ME THIS COOL TOY. Just use their phone for lightsaber apps and fart buttons. Convinced that phone is the best thing forever... until the next version comes out. | 23:28 |
| arrrghhh | lot of 'professional' winmo users | 23:28 |
| Tandyman100 | Oh, yeah. | 23:28 |
| Tandyman100 | I've never met any, though. | 23:28 |
| arrrghhh | winmo and bb | 23:28 |
| arrrghhh | i have | 23:28 |
| arrrghhh | more bb than winmo :P | 23:28 |
| Tandyman100 | I've met several girls that ALL had Touch Pro 2s | 23:28 |
| arrrghhh | orly? | 23:29 |
| arrrghhh | i hardly ever run into ppl with this phone | 23:29 |
| arrrghhh | once in a great while | 23:29 |
| Tandyman100 | "Oh, cool, you guys have touch pro 2s!" | 23:29 |
| Tandyman100 | them (enthusiastically) "Yeah, I know. I love these phones, check out the weather animation *switches to Sense tab*" | 23:29 |
| Tandyman100 | it happened to be raining | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | so there was a windscreen wiper | 23:30 |
| arrrghhh | oh yea | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | everyone loves the windscreen wiper :P | 23:30 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:30 |
| arrrghhh | i thought that was cool, i'll admit it :P | 23:30 |
| arrrghhh | cheesy, but cool | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | One guy was an Android user that I saw last night. He had some old Donut device. | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | <me> What version of Android is that? | 23:30 |
| Tandyman100 | <him> uhh, it's a Motorola android | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | <me> oh, that looks like Donut | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | <him> ... | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | what's donut | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | <me> *pulls out Froyo touch pro* | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | <me> I've got the latest | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | gb man | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | <him> OH THAT'S ONE OF THOSE HTC ANDROIDS | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | really rub it in | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | he has no clue | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | it was halarious | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | not one i'm sure | 23:31 |
| arrrghhh | :P | 23:31 |
| Tandyman100 | he then proceeded to open up Alchemy and make an Alchoholic | 23:32 |
| Tandyman100 | alcoholic* | 23:32 |
| arrrghhh | nice | 23:32 |
| arrrghhh | yea someone with a droid eris or smth on at&t was showing me that | 23:33 |
| arrrghhh | he made like 140+ | 23:33 |
| arrrghhh | i don't see why it's so entertaining | 23:33 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:33 |
| Tandyman100 | Strangely enough, a couple old guys had android devices. One of them was a motorola droid, he actually customized a bit. He knew how to remove software, and do some non-just-installing-apps stuff. | 23:33 |
| Tandyman100 | the other guy wasn't completely clueless, either. | 23:33 |
| Tandyman100 | They both knew they were running 2.1, for example. | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | milestone just got 2.2 | 23:34 |
| Tandyman100 | They both knew how to turn off radios when not using them. | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | took moto long enough | 23:34 |
| Tandyman100 | milestone? is that the Droid? | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | the original droid | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | sorry | 23:34 |
| Tandyman100 | ok | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | i usually speak in codenames | 23:34 |
| Tandyman100 | Has the original Droid got an unofficial Froyo port? | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | or whatever-that-name is | 23:34 |
| arrrghhh | i think so, dunno | 23:34 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah, I haven't learnt codenames for anything but HTC devices. | 23:35 |
| arrrghhh | but it JUST got an official 2.2 upgrade | 23:35 |
| Tandyman100 | just in time for 3.0 to come out :P | 23:35 |
| Tandyman100 | though I guess that doesn't count, being a tablet OS. | 23:35 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 23:36 |
| arrrghhh | everyone on hd2 is clamoring for it | 23:36 |
| arrrghhh | i don't know why tho | 23:36 |
| arrrghhh | everything is sized for... a tablet! | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | yeah | 23:37 |
| arrrghhh | wait for ice cream | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | HD2 is kind of a *really, really* small tablet, I guess | 23:37 |
| arrrghhh | i also hear they're backporting some features and doing 2.4 as another gb release. | 23:37 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | I guess it'd sort of be ankin to Maemo 5 | 23:37 |
| arrrghhh | i keep thinking i should buy one and use it like an ipod touch | 23:37 |
| arrrghhh | service-less | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | that's how I use all my phones :P | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | that's how I explain it to people when they ask. | 23:37 |
| Tandyman100 | Maemo 5 was amazing. | 23:38 |
| arrrghhh | you don't have service on any of your devices...? | 23:38 |
| Tandyman100 | hell, someone needs to just make a finger-friendly shell for Debian and put THAT on phones. | 23:38 |
| arrrghhh | although at 15 i didn't have a cell phone | 23:38 |
| Tandyman100 | No, I don't. Can't afford it. | 23:38 |
| arrrghhh | parents wouldn't buy me one | 23:38 |
| arrrghhh | had to pony up for it myself | 23:38 |
| Tandyman100 | Again, hoping to get job soon, should be able to afford it. | 23:38 |
| arrrghhh | i keep forgetting you're 15 | 23:39 |
| arrrghhh | i haven't been 15 in almost 15 years :P | 23:39 |
| Tandyman100 | haha | 23:40 |
| Tandyman100 | I'll take it as a complement you mistake me for someone older ;) | 23:41 |
| Tandyman100 | Then again, age and maturity do not go hand-in-hand. | 23:41 |
| arrrghhh | indeed | 23:41 |
| arrrghhh | you don't seem like you're 15, most of the time :P | 23:41 |
| Tandyman100 | <british accent> Indeed my good sir. </british accent> | 23:41 |
| Tandyman100 | I seem like I'm 8 :P | 23:43 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 23:45 |
| stinebd | arrrghhh: are you accepting donations for driving out tiad? | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | lmao | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | did you see his latest? | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | your SIM CARD is the key. THAT'S THE POWER OF GSM DEVICES THE (SIM CARD). | 23:47 |
| stinebd | i mean... not to point any fingers or anything | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | that's... awesome. | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | he said he reworked the RIL to be GSM-only... | 23:47 |
| arrrghhh | did you know? | 23:48 |
| stinebd | no | 23:48 |
| arrrghhh | DID YOU KNOW THE POWER OF GSM DEVICES | 23:48 |
| Tandyman100 | GSM devices FTW | 23:48 |
| arrrghhh | stfu you don't even have service | 23:48 |
| stinebd | anyway please try not to get banned from xda-devs | 23:49 |
| arrrghhh | dowhat? | 23:49 |
| arrrghhh | why would i get banned lol | 23:49 |
| arrrghhh | he's the one that's going to get banned if anything. | 23:49 |
| stinebd | well i didn't see whatever this nonsense was | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | he actually was banned from xda-devs for 1 day AFAIK | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | yea you don't want to | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | just some whiney diatribe | 23:50 |
| Tandyman100 | I was banned? | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | and some noobs saying "nooooooo don't go" | 23:50 |
| Tandyman100 | oh, tiad. | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | and a lot of other people said shit like 'put on your big boy pants' | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | or 'grow some thicker skin' | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | etc | 23:50 |
| arrrghhh | it was pretty entertaining | 23:50 |
| Tandyman100 | I thought you were talking about ME getting banned. | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | and completely outrageous | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, damnit man | 23:51 |
| Tandyman100 | lol, that sounds like pure awesome. | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | tiad just accused me of harassing me | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | and said he's quitting - soley because of me | 23:51 |
| * Tandyman100 wonders how one would harass themselves. | 23:51 | |
| arrrghhh | he "lost all respect for me" | 23:51 |
| stinebd | you were harassing you? | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | me harrassing me lol | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | sorry typing too fast | 23:51 |
| arrrghhh | me harassing him | 23:52 |
| stinebd | hmm | 23:52 |
| stinebd | let's stick with the original story | 23:52 |
| stinebd | it introduces the entertaining plot twist of multiple personality disorder | 23:52 |
| Tandyman100 | lol | 23:53 |
| arrrghhh | heh | 23:53 |
| Tandyman100 | crap. You made me laugh so hard I started coughing like a manical athsmatic. | 23:53 |
| stinebd | But just a little info. on your sd card you will have. System.ext2, roofts.img, and ts-calibration. Just those 3 files. The rest will be on your root windows mobile. | 23:54 |
| arrrghhh | you like that? | 23:54 |
| arrrghhh | i like that he said he reworked the RIL | 23:54 |
| stinebd | i didnt get to that part yet | 23:54 |
| arrrghhh | last post, he copypasta'd it to 4 threads by my count | 23:55 |
| stinebd | i'm willing to bet the entire warchest it's one of two things | 23:57 |
| stinebd | a) htc's blob or b) a total trainwreck | 23:57 |
| arrrghhh | lmao | 23:57 |
| arrrghhh | i'm really hoping b | 23:57 |
| arrrghhh | OH GOD PLEASE BE B | 23:57 |
| stinebd | the whole no apn thing strongly implies a | 23:58 |
| stinebd | which, when used without the wrapper, leads to no data | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | yea he probably kanged the crap from hd2 | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | that wrapper phh wrote for the hd2 folk | 23:58 |
| stinebd | yes | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | ah | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | he has gotten really good at kanging | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | gotta give him that | 23:58 |
| stinebd | well i'm still better | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | still has no clue what he's doing on his own | 23:59 |
| Tandyman100 | what's kanging? Ripping off peopls stuff and modding it slightly? | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | but very good at kanging, considering his lack of understanding in geneal. | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | general* | 23:59 |
| Tandyman100 | nah, geneal is fine :P | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | Tandyman100, yea, mostly not modifying at all | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | damn you | 23:59 |
| Tandyman100 | Ah, so it's a script kiddie way of doing things. | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | i gotta slow down | 23:59 |
| arrrghhh | yea | 23:59 |
