[HTC Desire S] Taysider:
Life of what was dreamed of till the tories got in.

Hi I'm Dave Thornton, Semi-Retired and should be happy, which I was till this government started F***ing everything up. What should have been a happy retirement has turned into me having to take a wee part-time job just to keep us afloat.

Live in Dundee, Tayside, Scotland hence the name taysider.

I worked in a supermarket petrol station, and loved every minute. Now I spend most of my time writing for a couple of blog sites, Android of course, and walking my dogs, Welsh short haired border collie called Charlie and a black lab called Blaize. Love taking them down to the beach early in the morning, well 6ish. :)

ICS leak even before the OTA, for the Amaze

Looks like Football did it again.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/amaze-4g-gets-htcs-ics-blessing-through-a-leak/

He's actually managed to get an ICS Sesne 4 leak for the HTC Amaze, even before the OTA has been officially released by HTC. This is not an RUU, it's the actual damn OTA file!!! The guy's a legend!! God knows what his sources are. So now it's full kernel infused ICS goodness for the lucky Amaze owners, while we still wait patiently on the sidelines... *groans*

Here's praying that he does the same for the DS...
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Big chance he works for HTC, and they leak it to find and fix last minute issues :D

Good observation! Yeah, that is a great idea! I don't think HTC themselves can even revive the phone to see evidence of S-OFF.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Not surprised to be honest. You should see how much advertising the S3 has here, it's ridiculous. Almost everywhere I go the airport, train, shops, hotel, there are banners, animated ads etc.

In Dubai there was even a bloody 30ft long S3 banner that covered the whole wall!

Great news about full Sense 4, can't wait!

Yeah, but that's still from HTC. There is 0 chance that HTC will update the Desire V (or the VC) to JB, while there is still hope for the One V. Plus, no dev section.
[HTC Desire S] uqadwe:
Finally left the Desire S(plus an extra year of subscription + 80 euro) for the One X. For me this is the best upgrade ever.

Feeling sorry to leave this area(even if didn't contributed) but things are very well organised here. I think it will take some time before the

One X will be so advanced.

Good luck to all!

Just saw , The Dark Knight Rises ... & All i can say is WOW !!!!! :laugh:

Christopher Nolan gives the Batman Trilogy a fitting end. Well written & brilliantly directed. :good:

Although it gets on a narrative side every now & then ! But, that's how the sequels are made , more story telling for better understanding! :cool:

The negative guy, BANE epitomizes Raw power, Physical strength ... & Batman along with his muse , as good as they get !

Won't reveal much , I'd suggest you better catch it over the weekend. ;)

Not a bad low-end phone, but significantly less powerful than our DS.

I was two weeks at a hotel placed before jumeirah palm island and 3 days at an oasis hotel in the middle of the desert. That was awesome. :D the best hotel I've ever seen. From your hotel room/pavilion you only saw dunes some animals (forgot their name) and nothing more. I have done there a safari tour, dune bashing, camel riding and saw a hawk show.

Yeah of course.. I was in that giant mall, in the aqua park on the palm island, did a sightseeing tour (with these hop on hop off buses), a dhow tour was in the herbs and gold souk and so on :D did you visited the same places? What was the name of your hotel

The funniest thing was that we decided to take a tram to our holiday but we had no idea about taking one in Dubai. So we travelled in a waggon full of man and they looked at us as they never saw a family. We was in the man waggon and not in the family waggon :D

A bit thoughtful was that I lost my old phone in a taxi and got it back but with some photos of 6 man in a really really small room (no windows) in their beds.

I used to hate how it is a bit tight to plug the charger jack into the phone, until today.

Everything was usually today, nothing extraordinary happen. My battery was low and i just plugged the charger to charge my phone. I was not prepared for what would happen next. I didnt notice that the charger cable was caught by the chair. As i was pulling the chair i saw everything in slow motion, how my phone was slowly sliding off the table and fell from the edge as i pull the chair. My heart went into a race as i only manage to grab on to the cable. Everything happened so fast and yet so slow as i was waiting for the sound of my phone dropping, but it didnt came. It is then i realize that my phone was hanging on by a thread by the cable. I quickly but carefully pull my phone up by the cable and grab it, it is then my heart still racing but start to calm down.

My true story of life and death experience all in 10 seconds.

So, what are everyone's thoughts on the new Infinity ROM release? I'd love to try it (finished work, and have the rest of the day to relax :)) but unfortunately wifi here is an absolute b*tch. (even loading web pages takes agesss)

I like the look of the new Sense recent apps and clock app, and judging from the screenshots, it looks like the ROM has been resized pretty well on the whole :)

P.S - I am going to see the new Batman tomorrow :D

Cinema is really cheap here, like 5RM (roughly £1) compared to UK where its like a tenner to watch in 3D :eek: Didn't get a chance to see the previous films, but I hope I can understand the film!

Been told it wasn't too impressive. Apparently Batman doesny actually do much.. :(

Also, RIP to those who were killed in the cinema a couple of days ago. That killer was really heartless and ruthless, and I didn't think it was at all amusing when he made a joke about being the 'joker'.

Cheers.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Infinity is awesome :D A little slow, but great. Brilliant graphics performance, 54.2 FPS in Nenamark, 27 FPS in nenamark2 :eek::eek:

BTW, Batman was pretty great too, but don't expect it to be as good as the Dark Knight (or this year's Avengers), you'll be dissapointed. It was much better than Batman Begins though.

Guys what about virtuouss infinity? Is it usable? I saw lot of people complaining in dhd section.. Any feedback plz
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
Given that the announcement was made earlier today and that it's mid-week so most people won't flash it until this weekend, you're not likely to get much feedback. Also, feedback isn't normally worth-while until people have been running it for a couple of weeks to check stability.

If you really want to know though - flash it yourself and try it, then let us know what you think :silly:

Just saw Dark Knight Rises yesterday, epic film, loved it :D

I actually read the plot to the two previous films so I got an idea of what was going on, and come to think of it, I think ive watched them before, but wasn't paying close attention. (I remember Harvey Dent in part 2)

I was told it was bad, because there wasn't a lot of action in it. But I thought it was brilliant, the story plot is much more interesting unlike other films like Spider man etc.

Loved the ending, does this mean there will be a part4?! :D

Cause Robin is on his own in the batcave now, waiting for batman to return?

Just won't be the same without Nolan. And I hated the ending, due to what happened with Bruce. Remove that last scene and the movie was great, it seemed a little too much and happens in every movie, and was getting monotonous (spoiler free :p)

I think what's going to happen next is the justice league.. makes sense to me..

Based on the ending of the dark knight rises. Robin will be left to defend gotham city as bruce wayne is now attachless to gotham city. He's already dead in their eyes. A few batman visits might do the trick.

Now that their introducing the new version of superman (man of steel). Based on the trailer, it clark's struggle and progress of how to become a superhero. Its like he jsut got out of smallville and into the city. Now i wonder who'll play Louise?

In the end of superman. Maybe they'll make batman and superman meet.

Afaik batman and superman had a tandem first before making the justice league..

Oh. And yeah, the nolan's batman series seems to be the most serious batman ever. And also based realistically. Just imagine, even if your friend wears a mask, without changing his/her voice, i'm pretty sure you can recognise your friend. Right? And gadgets are based closely to military technology.

I loved the part where we saw batman fighting bane helplessly first tine on the sewers. It almost left me a tear. Batman's warcry from the bridge was the best. You almost feel his pain and saying "GGRRRRRaaaahhh! OMFG!.i've given all my skills and still you have full health! Feels like you got 10 Vanguards and 10 Cuirass with 100 Heart of Tarrasque!
