Thank you for visiting my thread. I wish you have a nice day. I reported you for being off-topic and ruining my thread.

Dear troll, I think you misread my username and TheoX =/= PurpleXS8.

Second of your argument is invalid: If you go on the street and ask random persons about both devices the chance of anybody giving an answer else then "I don't know both" is 10%. When your N900 was launched, the HTC Universal was doing so well, people were very happy to have a mini-laptop in their pockets running Linux. 99% of the devices running windows mobile could run Android.

Now to give you 2 mind blowing devices I've been researching about except this HTC Universal:

HTC HD2 is the true hackers device. HTC HD2 was the only device so extensively hacked and opened that rignt now it could run the Windows 8 RT, Android, Ubuntu, Windows Phone, Windows Mobile and whatever else you can think of. The bootloader of this device had enough security breaches so that hackers can home-build their own custom bootloader intended for any possible OS.

Now the most opened device, even more open then N900 was made by HTC in 2008. It's called the HTC Shift, and it was the 1st smartphone natively running dual-boot. It came with Windows Mobile as the 1st OS and Windows Vista as the second OS, Intel x86 based CPU and 1GB of RAM. Due to the technology back then, the BIOS (not bootloader this time) could not be locked, so this phone can easily run ANYTHING you want WITHOUT ANY LIMITATIONS.

The only point is that I would not bring up a device in discussion as long as I don't own that device. The only problem is, that right now I both own a partially functional N900 and a HTC Universal and they can basically do the same things as a hackers device.

When replying please do a little more research in advance, or else you will just make a full of yourself. Second, anything that you point as fact and it's not based on real, solid arguments and facts is religion like and when I last read this section's description, religion was prohibited here. Before I wrote this thread, I owned a HTC Universal, I know what it's capable of and the true comparative between these 2 handhelds is: Nokia N900 >= HTC Universal.

By the way, here is the 2008 HTC Shift, running Windows 8 PRO:



Please stop making a fool of yourself. If you did some research you would know this:

HTC Universal = HTC MDA PRO (my current) = JASJAR = XDA Exec = QTEK 9000

If you would make even more research you will find out that:

QTEK = SPV = HTC

Also how can you say QTEK 2020i > QTEK 9000? Please go on pdadb and compare them. After doing that, you can come back here and apologies.

If you follow the right instructions your device can be upgraded to this:



All you need to do is reflash it.

Now getting back. What would you like to know more about the HTC Universal?

People. PEOPLE!

Please listen to him. It's important.
Don't go off topic on a thread about a dead device in off topic subforum. (What are you, Neanderthals?)

So to summarize:

OFF-TOPIC IN OFF-TOPIC SUBFORUM = ON TOPIC??

Please everyone research that topic.
Maybe we can make this topic the most hackable topic!

HAHAHA. Good one!

I'd like to know what you are using it for in practice, what type of hacking it is capable of.

Dear user. I inform you that your your reply is wrong and this is the last time I explain this:

Off-Topic BOARD in this forum means that here you can post whatever you want to discuss that is not related to the follwing:

• NXXX Devices
• N9 Devices
• Maemo OS
• Meego OS
• Competitors*
• Alternatives*
• Development*
• Buy/Sell*

The items marked with "*" are related to the first 4 in the list above.

Now in this Off-Topic boards threads containing various topics unrelated to the list above are created. Each thread has it's own topic, and that thread should stay on that topic until the thread is closed or archived.

To give you an example:

In a horse forum, I open a new thread in the off-topic section about cats. Whoever is coming to that thread and talks anything about dogs, lizards, eagles and so on is in violation of the ethics code of the internet. Please learn some manners before you post. In addition, you have been reported.

That's fricking hilarious. No self respecting hacker goes out without a ski mask. You can't be safe enough in this era of web cams.

This current device I didn't use yet for anything in practice. On the old device I was testing custom build of Windows Mobile 6.1 / 6.5. Hacking the Windows Mobile OS for a better smartphone experience.

I concur! It's my standard hacker outfit.

Windows Mobile OS? How can you have that and "hack"on the same sentence? I'm still intrigued but more skeptical now.
