So, what was your very first smartphone if you have had one?

My first was the Nokia 7650 on SymbianOS used to love that thing even with its VGA camera, 1st gen Bluetooth and tiny non upgradable 4MB storage.

It's funny to think now that it was considered a smartphone since these days even the cheaper feature phones do more... How about you lot?

My first smartphone was the iPhone 4. Back then it was a tremendous device.

Now it still is (for me at least).

Mine was a Samsung Galaxy Apollo (or Galaxy 3) which I had until last July when I bought my lovely Galaxy Nexus. Bought it from my old boss who'd just upgraded her phone for £40 or so. It had minimal app storage (about 200mb iirc), and ran Android 2.1 (also known as feckin' slow). I did a huge amount of messing with it to make it much nicer. My little sister is currently using it very lightly (this will be hard to believe but my 16 year old sister does very little phone use. Barely carries it with her most of the time)

KC910. Got it in 2010 and then got the Motorola Defy on contract a few months later.

Bought my friend's Blackberry Storm in 2009 which was an upgrade of sorts from my Sony Ericsson K800i. I used to imagine Blackberry being "cool" because it was always the tool of choice amongst business professionals but the Storm was like a crash course in owning a smartphone. The apps selection is almost non-existant. There was no Wifi and my house couldn't pick up 3G signals because it was in a fairly rural area so browsing was out of the question. It felt like a device rushed to cash in on the iphone's introduction and it probably was.

Then I bought an HTC Sensation after that and never looked back.

Mine was the Samsung Dart. It was A HUGE improvement over my previous phone. The only good thing about that old phone was that people thought it was a Blackberry.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
