[REQ] The Most Pointless App. - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I think someone should develop an I Am Rich Application similar to the one on the iPhone.
For those who don't know what it was. It was an application that had a red glowing orb, but that's all. It did absolutely nothing except glowed. What made it so special was the $999.99 price-tag they put on it. The sad part is, some people actually bought it.
So I think one of you incredible developers out there should create the most pointless I Am Rich app for Windows Mobile, and submit it to the new Microsoft Marketplace.

Wow, am still surprised with the fact that everyone never look for things themselves...
Google: "i am rich pocket pc" gives immediate correct hits...
Nevertheless: here it is attached but please look next time

What is the point of a free I Am Rich application? That's like an Oxy-Moron...
Perhaps you should read the posts better before you post though.

Not only that! I want someone to sell it!

I submit the idea "I am rich and hot":
A pocket pc fan that apears on the screen each time its too hot outside.
The fan can be of solid gold with lots of bling.
You can configure the wind speed with left-right (or shake it if you have G-sensor).
Also, the app must be installed by a serveant!

Tasteless and funny all rolled into one.

royalty free xda-developers logo/graphics

Hi,
I'm thinking. Are there any graphic designers around here who's willing to do up some logo/graphics for xda-developers? This can become a repository for the developers to use as skins/wallpapers for their various apps. Unless I'm mistaken, xda-developers doesn't seem to have a logo... yet
I'd be willing to take a crack at it. Could we start a poll for what colors people would like?
I would try it also times.
And i posted it here.
How do we start a poll? I'm a forum noob..
My favourite is green, yellow/orange and red.
Ever seen a pic of the red eye tree frog?
I made finished times a first Logo.

liked this one.
i believe it should be elegantly small sized and professional looking.
any way to make the 'V' a little more pointy?
One can still stop the size then.
Then is my also not more so large.
one should really decide about size, colors and stuff
someone open a poll??
here is another try
i did a vector redraw of my touch^^

And yet the HD is still a horrible device
and also this has been around for ages with a number of updates...can't find the post right now though
You know what even funnier...
Those graphs are an outright lie. They are from Gizmodo! They love Apple.
Opera is the most popular mobile browser. Symbian has over 30,000 apps, not 1,000, winmo (not on the list you notice) has 35,000+. Most iPhone apps are only made to fix missing features to start with, and all but 150 or so of the rest are rubbish and pointless.

and in the end, we download processor underclocking software, ROMs, programs, redesign every single detail on our device....iPhone users wobble tits
simple stuff for simple people :/
new iPhone announced....i lol'd, still no multitasking it seems, but they got a compass....i guess it's more important to know where South is then being able to consult a pdf/calculator/net/whatever in the middle of writing an email/sms
oooh, but they introduced mms and a landscape keyboard....lol

Ok now that we have that cleared up. Let all iPhone fanboys rejoice and bow their heads for the new creations. The greatest phone ever built now has cut and paste, mms and landscape keyboard. I bet we will never hear the end of this from the fanboys now! I can just picture fanboys everywhere bragging about it....lol

I don't know about that. I've had the HD for a week, and am seriously regretting getting rid of my iphone. I don't know if you've ever used an iphone for any length of time, but I don't really see how you can call it a horrible device

It certainly doesnt feel as epic as it is made to sound. Having used an iphone (not 3G) for a week, I actually preferred my old LG Viewty.

It may look better, but is much harder to use.
The buttons on the Nexus One are really bad. You should be glad that they did NOT make them like that.

Are they actual buttons you have to "push" or are they sensor like buttons that you only have to press lightly?

much like capacitive dpad from diamond, at least that's what I understand had that phone, never owned one.
Cool looking, sure, but I can press buttons in the dark just by feeling their surface thi way... plus, you get more satisfaction out of the tactile feedback
I had initially meant to post this in this thread, but kinda mucked up and put it in the wrong one.
Still, I think it's funny enough to post twice... Mods, please feel free to delete if it breaks any rules or pi$$es anyone off...

The image I posted is a HD2 (not) running Windows 3.11 so it has the same physical layout as the original HD2, but obviously would run about a million times faster than WinMo 6.5 lol

EVO HI-RES Motherboard Images

Hey does anyone have a high res image of the insides of this phone, more specifically the motherboard? I would like to find a nice hard vmod to get high processor speed just as a proof of concept.

Maybe should be in the Q&A?

Mostly though, really should have put a question mark at the end, because it's pretty misleading. I came in to SEE said images.

I know I'm just messing with ya. The title is misleading though.... Btw anyone know what happened to them cool x-rays someone took of the Evo? I went to the thread but it doesn't show the pics for some reason. Wanted to make a background out of one.
IIRC, the guy wanted to start charging for them so removed them from the thread.

OP, iFixIt has a tear down of the EVO posted.
The only high-ish res images I could find were on iFixit. I've taken what they had, edited out the colored boxes around each component, then cleaned it up a little. It's not perfect, but hopefully it helps.

But that's the point. Love it or hate it this type of advertising works... It keeps the product in your mind and also makes you draw attention to something others might not watch...
I just want the facts...not the other one hour, thirty minutes and 14 seconds of hype and crap that video offered.

I completely agree if it wasn't effective it would make them idoits, but for me personally I found it incredibly annoying. I switched off as soon as that actress opened her mouth deloris, delila what ever her name was you know the one that looked drunk and I also skipped much of what happened prior to her appearing on stage and after, the only thing I can remember about the actual phone is s health or something, which I think sound like a bad idea having your fitness/health levels on your phone. Just sounds like another piece of data for companies to mine from you. Yeah yeah I know I'm paranoid.
Now where did I put my foil helmet.
Better be on your head or the CIA mindprobes will be reading your thoughts in conjunction withe the Vampire Aliens from Jupiter who are in on the conspiracy to rule the world using nothing more than consumer interest in mobile phones by stunning you stupid using the antics of Deloris/Delila...
I am not unbalanced or a conspiracy nut, it's true.... They are watching from your phones..:laugh:
