Well, today is 30 C and sunny, and I am stuck inside. Wow that is freezing, I guess it is completely different in this part of the world :D

I guess you're used to the cold by now. Like the day that reached like 47C here a few years ago, I spent the whole day in the pool then went out for dinner, and the restaurant's air conditioner broke down. Then went down to the service station and bought an ice cream :)
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
That is quite cold! Yea it's much better to go ski-dooing when it's a decent temperature outside.

Holy hell, that's freaking hot! Up here, the hottest it gets is MAYBE 25C in the middle of summer. 47? Oh my god, I think I would pass out from a heat stroke if I were there. I remember being in Edmonton, Alberta, when I was much younger and I remember experiencing 30C weather. I hated it, I was soaking with sweat and any kind of metal was hot to the touch. Crazy how different out enviroments are! :)
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
It gets quite hot here, but the flies are what really piss me off lol

It is 28.1 C right now where I am. I am inside, making ice in the freezer because its quite hot inside and my water keeps going warm :(

Yeah that 47 day was an absolute killer

lol in Singapore and hong kong and stuff the temperature when I go is about 30 C every day but it is really humid and I am not used to it, so the sweat comes out within seconds :/

It is amazing, it seems like we're on opposite sides of the world, sharing the same passion!
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
Flies? Up here, they are a small nuisance at worst. The Mosquito's are what I absolutely

hate with a passion.

Most annoying insect in the world, and in small communities around Whitehorse, they practically fly in massive swarms. So annoying, you can NEVER escape them in the summer in communities. Luckily, here in the city they aren't nearly as thickly populated.

It's not humid up here at all, so when I went to Richmond BC a few years ago for a hockey trip, it was freaking hot and sweaty lol. That's why I love forums so much, they've been a big part of my life since about the age of 13. You meet some truly great people that share the same interests as you and can converse with.

Forums actually gave me one of the best moments of my life. I was posting on the GSBB and posted pictures of my crappy plastic goalie mask that had cracks in it. I asked how safe it was, because I was getting headaches after playing hockey and getting shot in the head. They all told me it was very unsafe, and when I told them I had no job or money for a new helmet, the whole GSBB got together and paid for a brand new goalie mask for me. It was custom fitted to my head, reinforced with kevlar, and had a sick custom paintjob of my own creation. They paid for it all, I'm finding it hard to hold back the tears right now :silly: I got calls from some very important people in the goalie equipment industry to make sure my new helmet would fit me properly and protect me properly. The total bill for my new helmet and paint job was easily over 1k.

Those people saved me from getting a more serious concussion, as I was getting very minor ones with my old helmet at a low level of play. If it wasn't for them, I would've had to give up hockey and it's one of my few passions, along with programming and astronomy. I'll never forget what they did for me for as long as I live, it was one of the most touching things that's ever happened to me.

That is why forums are great! :good::highfive:
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
There aren't many mosquito here at the moment, but when they are around I always put on the insect repellent :) But here there are heaps of flies in summer time :(

I always get questioned about why I am never on facebook and I am always on xda lol. It's because on facebook things get REALLY boring, its more stalking people and finding out information you don't need to know and making stupid comments about them. At least here we have a passion, and actually make a difference to our phones :D And of course learn heaps. This time last year I was still scared I would brick my phone in the process of s-offing it (I had accidentally updated to 1.16 hboot with an OTA) but, look where we are now :) If I didn't know xda, I would probably have an ipad by now :/

I found out in my search history what brought me to xda: Seeing the nice Sony apps which came with the xperia series, I decided to google search to find it which brought me to xda lol

the Wow, are you a gun at this sport or something? Just as a random or did you have plenty of cred, like a dev would here? That is really generous

Really nice of them :)
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
Exactly! IMO Facebook is the socially acceptable way of stalking people. Very creepy indeed. Yea, I remember back in the day when I still had my old flip phone, I almost got an iPhone cause I loved my iPod touch. But I tried the Inc S when it was on display, and fell in love with android and bought it immediately. XDA has allowed me to discover a whole new passion I didn't know I even had in me :)

No, I wasn't that good. Good but nothing amazing basically. I had been a member for about half a year, and had been contributing to the community in the form of reviewing goalie equipment that I had. It was a thing there, everyone reviewed the new gear they got so they could show it off and contribute in one post. I just happened to run into the right people at the right time I think :)
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
lol facebook and twitter are creepy. We used to get talks at school about being careful on social networking sites and to never arrange to meet anyone you meet on facebook because they might be pedo's :/ Yeah I have an ipod touch 3rd gen but I never *loved* it like I love my phone and N7, because it looked the same as everyone else's and audio quality sucked, lacking an equaliser. I bought the IncS because it was in my price range lol and because of sense :D My ipod is still running 3.1.3 because I didn't want to update to 4.0 because it was supposed to make it slower haha

So you had never met these people and only gave a few reviews and tips to others, for half a year? How many people donated to you? I am a member on a tennis forum called tennis-warehouse, but I haven't been on in ages, I had like 6 posts :D No chance of anyone buying me a new racket :( That is where all my money goes: tennis stuff and phones.

I woke up to that news :( Hopefully nits and the team sort it out soon. It would suck more for nik, as he didn't even get to share his work in the first place.

Guys get shadowgun :) It is on the play store. You can get it on the IncS, but its a bit laggy and small :( My name is markj338, go easy on me :D I have been playing all afternoon :)

You might have to OC a bit to get it to run nicely

I don't understand why the "viper beta tester thread" in the General section had been closed too, if this ROM now needs further development then surely this can stay open, right?

I feel bad for Venom Rom..!

Nits has to apologize..:(

I guess motives of rom developers should be emphesize...

Though I understand their is subtle difference between propriety and opesource stuff...

Anyways this is my reaction to what happened to venom rom

I m not offering any way out or disparing anyone..

Its just the reaction

i jst dont appreciate wht has happen to venom rom...

I hope we get the way out

grr first apple delays turn by turn navigation for australia to november. and now they delay itunes 11. -.- grrrrrrrrrrrr.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
At least the devs are getting around it :)

I am looking forward to the next release, I haven't even flashed 1.0.0 yet :0

That teaches you for buying an iPhone :D I honestly thought they already had turn by turn navigation. I guess I thought wrong

[HTC Incredible S] letmedanz:
Just a request guys, i know it is very frustrating what's happened with the VENOM rom (awesomely brilliant rom btw), but this is quite natural.

Team Virtuous is an awesome team, i do miss their presence here in XDA for whatever reason, but they know what they doing.

Team Venom by itself is extremely talented & am sure there would be a work around sooner than later.

So don't be venting yourselves on Virtuous!
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
+1 stop hating on the Virtuous Team

They have done a lot for us. Their developments have really been revolutionary in the world of Android porting, especially for us IncS WVGA users.

btw, Virtuous team aren't gone. Some are working on the One X (tbalden and mdeejay are maintainers for CM10)

And Chrisch is still working on the DHD, he has some pretty nice Sense 4.1 stuff coming (I read that in the DHD thread) based on the VilleC2
[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:

its because he didnt sign the maps apology letter. if tim cook was really sorry he would have signed it with no hassle. haha hows this. steve jobs dies.

battery drain, unfinished software comes out.

The R8 is a very sexy car, especially when its kind of dark and you see the daytime running lights

And the scoops and that carbon fibre blade thing on the side

Its amazing how the cops never seem to catch them, but always send out speeding fines for going 67 in a 60 zone :/

So its compulsory for training, but service is optional? Like, torture training?

haha yer i'm from Sydney it got to around 30. Melbourne seems to get very hot.

+ im going to flash CNA because im losing battery so quick on viper.. Can i use the same JB GApps pack as the one i used on evolution??
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
+1 Apple has gone downhill lately. You are actually the first person I know (does xda count as knowing?) that has gone from being an android power user (not just "using" it but hacking/rooting) to being an iphone owner. Apple sux. No offence to you nathan :D

Has your app development started yet?

It didn't get very hot today like they said it would. Melbourne is just confused

I find battery life good on ViperVIVO. But I am still on beta 4 :0

Yes you can use the same gapps,, provided they are the stock ones (labelled 0726 or whatever)

There are ones with newer apps that were released last month. But anyway, you will probably be updating them in the play store so there is no difference :)

I got the permissions to release the Infected theme for Venom :D So wish me luck, and look out for it early next week :)
[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:

Overpriced but their build quality is amazing. Most of the time.

Here, the IncS was $500 and the N4 is launching for $349 I think :) But two carriers, Vodafone and Telstra have said they're not stocking it :( I am on Optus, hopefully they decide to stock it, if not I might have to get something else. 4G looks very appetizing :D

It looks like it is going to rain tonight here. I am like, the only one I know that likes rain. Dunno why no one else likes it :0

That is the only thing that bothers me about it :( But, atm my area does not have LTE coverage on any network

But by May next year all 3 carriers will probably have 4G here. Hopefully they bring out a 4G version. Strange because both the Verizon and Sprint american gnex's had LTE, why would they skip it this time?
[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:
I thought the $349 is in USD o.O

Hey I like the rain too, just make sure it happens when it's not on a day where I'll be having an outdoor activity or something. In other words it's like an aircon :D

---------- Post added at 04:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

Well. We can't blame LG for that as the nexus 4 is pretty cheap.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
$349 for 8gb, 399 for 16gb but I think 8 is not enough for me, for flashing roms and backups :D

No rain yet but the sky is really dark looking, it might rain a little bit. Yeah when I am in the mood for playing tennis or riding my bike, then it rains, I am not happy :D

Yeah especially for the hardware you get for the price. Amazing

What kind of bike do you have? I want to buy a roadbike, but it's very expensive. It's like about $1000. All I have is a mountain bike which costs about a hundred dollars :rolleyes:
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
I haven't tried it myself but our phone probably won't be able to run it at a high framerate. Some games, like asphalt have different quality settings for graphics on different devices so it might have low graphics quality but an okay framerate. Or it could be laggy. Shadowgun runs at around 15 fps most of the time, but its playable

Mine is a hybrid. I guess its a flat bar road bike, but the gearing is kind of between a proper road bike and a mountain bike.

Mine was like $700 a few years ago, I love it

O_o you can notice framerates above 60FPS? You must have impeccable eyesight. I can't notice anything above 60FPS personally, and I have 20/20 vision.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Which game are you referring to? In a game, I don't notice any low framerate at the constant 30FPS my underclocked N7 is giving me with shadowgun.

Only in a UI and in a video I can notice drops in frame rate. Maybe because I am concentrating when playing a game :D

But ZaySk is right, I thought the human eye couldn't see more than 60? I can't tell a difference anyway. In the N7 forum, some developer overclocked the display's framerate in order to get better benchmark score but people complained about not noticing a difference
[HTC Incredible S] james1196:
Yer splux are you sure you mean 100 fps because most games on ps3 / xbox (e.g. Call of Duty) are around 65..
[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
The difference is in the mousemovements and mouse sensitivity.

Higher fps = higher precision in finding a good sensitivity, and below 100fps the game feels sluggish. Don't know why, but i can't play fps games in less than 100fps. My aim is noticeably

worse than if I would've played with 100+.

Shadowgun , I think it was called.

30fps is usually enough for mobile games and 60fps on a console. Maybe it is my imagination, but I play better with 100+fps.
