What was your first flash ever?

My iPhone was stolen and got an Erickson phone from a friend. But I missed my iPhone. Some googling and doing stuff without understanding anything. Totally out of my comfort zone. But was very proud what I achieved.

On my youtube channel/project archive. The text are in finnish so you can skip the beginning.

Other people had done all the work really. I just downloaded and copypasted and dived into the terminal mode which was really scary.

I got an Openmoko gifted for Christmas when it came out.
You just had to learn flashing to make use of it, the original system was as free from features as full of bugs.

Alternatives showed up with SHR (Stable Hybrid Release) which was quite awesome for its time, but also quite slow. The Openmoko Hardware was the very opposite of powerful, even back then.
Now the last commits to the SHR Code are 4 years old.

Later I used QtMoko which was more performant and even made the phone somewhat usable as phone.

My first flash ever...
hm...
13 years old ...
on a dare ...
did a whole lap of the high school hallways streakiing naked...

actually...
does not being old enough to know any better count?
If not then I have to discount the next door neighbours backyard wedding ceremony I crashed naked at the age of 3...
the wedding was temporarily halted for the entertainment value I provided...
so I was told...

Now of course I do all my flashing in the privacy of my home...
I flash often...
Devices that is...if we are talking about devices...

the other flashing I save for the nude beach....mostly...
(remember kids...if anyone ever tells you "to grow up, act your age and act responsibly ..." ....don't ever ever listen...you just grow old and miserable...that is why I have kept my svelte figure and youthful looks...and of course I use Oil of Olay...)

So it seems flash has some other meanings too... unknown to my pure and innocent finnish conscious. It's like when I told to my friend I had been on a concert with my wife where there were three guys blowing fagots and it sounded so great My friends face was horrified... on a bible college. He as a canadian knew some other meaning for fagot than an instrument.
