This phone is amazing!

For some odd reason yesterday, I woke up and my mom came in my room and gave me my sister's phone.(IT'S A G1!)
What I'm confused about is the reason behind this act of kindness. Anybody have any ideas?

Anyways, the Wii softmodding was a success!!!!!!!! I spent about 7 hours playing brawl plus that day. Crazy huh?

Maybe your sister got a better phone, chnaged back to her old phone, or your mom wanted to confiscate her phone as a punishment.

Yes, the G1 is awsome, but it's even more awesome if you install debian on it as well. Then you can install software to do anything you want, including games, emulators, and office suites, all free.

Here are some links if you want to:

They're in order of what needs to be done first.

As for why your mom may have given it to you, do you really care? You just won the lottery, so to speak.

Your sister just got a "HTC Hero!"

You didn't just ask your mom why you just got your sisters phone. She just comes in to your room, gives it to you, you try to speak but she shushes you and walks out. Thats how I imagine it.

Unfortunately, the G1 is no longer receiving any more major incremental firmware upgrades (such 1.5 to 2.0 will be exclusively for the G2) due to technical limitations

Actually, I found out why. It was very disturbing when I found out. She's.... Yeah, since my cousin might read this, I can't tell.

The MyTouch 3g is not the HTC Hero. The MyTouch 3g is the HTC Magic.

The HTC Hero has a modified Android OS, labeled as the Sense UI.

    @SylverReZ, 1) except final fantasy 16. 2) why would I have a console's whole catalogue if most of the games are either shovelware or terrible games?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Kind of a waste, but the allure of all those games over 100,000

    Some shovel ware with low ratings you might enjoy more than the ratings would sugest

    Cruisn on the Wii is one of my personal examples of that, it's considered one of the worst games of all time, I loved it and completed it several times.

    The trick for me was to go into the settings and crank up the Wiimote sensitivity to the max and it gets twitchy but you can win that way lol
