Half-Illusion and Asylum Discussion Thread
- Thread starter toxicthunder
- Start date
Hypothetical (no offense meant)-
After days of incessant fighting, ahalford was captured and brought to the enemy camp - chained and tied to a lamp post. An account of the night that changed the fate of two warring parties -
(Enemy soldier sitting next to him, has an android and is browsing XDA forums.
Another comrade joins him. )
They seem to be discussing something about a new ROM. And one of them seems to be getting loads of issues that the other doesn't.
The two soldiers are surprised when ahalford speaks up. Says he,
”You have an incomplete download. Verify your MD5".
The soldier does so, and finding inconsistencies, flashes the zip his friend is running. All is well.
Chains removed.
The second soldier starts to discuss the innumerable battery issues he has. Says it doesn't even last half a day, especially when he's out in the field.
Again says ahalford,
"Install better battery stats. See what's hogging your battery and freeze that app for the time being."
Problem resolved.
Ahalford now has a glass of beer in his hand.
A third man in uniform joins in. He has a different ROM installed but he wants his phone to have the same boot animation as the others.
The other two say it can't be done. Now this third man is a senior commanding officer and is incensed at being mocked at.
Ahalford steps right up.
"You there, gimme your phone", he says to one of the two. The soldier complies.
"If I may sir", and the commanding officer hands over his device as well.
A few clicks later, the commanding officer has a sinister skull in red looping in front of him as his phone boots.
"You're one heck of a techie.", says he.
"Well, I just keep my eyes and ears open on the threads."
"You're a member on XDA as well???", asks the bewildered man.
"Say...which threads? And what's your username?", interjects one of the junior officers.
"The Galaxy Note threads usually. Same as you.".
Saying this, he takes one last sip of the fine liquor stolen from his own house, before setting the glass down.
"Oh, and my username is ahalford."
And so they say it wasn't UN intervention. It wasn't Egypt mediating. And it surely wasn't Hillary Clinton sweet-talking that finally ended the conflict.
It was an Android user, who shared his expertise with the rival camp.
It was an Android user who was freed with full respect and honor.
It was an Android user who got a hero's welcome on his return home.
It was an android user, and his nickname was -
Ahalford
-- The End --
Note from author: just a different perspective on the state of affairs. Hope you're all well and safe. God bless.

This is the right moment to quote our German fellow eybee: "if I packed a ham sandwich in zip format, he would flash it as well"

Yes. this was one of the best posts on XDA ever! :good:This is the right moment to quote our German fellow eybee: "if I packed a ham sandwich in zip format, he would flash it as well"
:thumbup:
btw: did you follow the jellybam-thread today? there were some "blonde" users too.
Another example of a "ham sandwich in zip format-flasher" (some call them more on...than off)
Owns a Note 2, but wants to flash a hardcore GB colonel (for Note 1 ofc) on his 4.1.1 belly jean ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34477345
I tend to say: "yes, do it. Flash on your own risks!"
@trahzebuck will make "looky-looky"
Ahhhh, yes, Sir! The "full wipe bug of dead" is a nice one for instance...entre autres!

Yes, buying devices from Indian sites will be a rip off right now. Just that demand b is outstripping supply, but my guess is not for long. Balance shall be restored and all shall be well again. Just give it a month. Let there be stockpiles of WMDs and there shall arise a dodgy dealer! Hail economics.Just to give u a perspective of how things are here in comparison with say U.S.

Nexus 10 -32 gb is selling for $750 in India.. Thats whopping isnt it?
With no direct sell from Google and imported units costing about double, we are not left with any choice but to wait for some friend to come from U.S.

And wasted too much time on the General section of the GNote2 which is scary
In 30 min I reported 4 or 5 threads which got gladly closed :laugh:
Now let's dig that development section...
I think I'll start with this:
