I know there were a few custom ROMs that took advantage of some of the blackberry apps n such for the original Titan series of phones but j could never get the boot loader to unlock on my original titan so I was always stuck with what they supplied which was fairly lacklustre and was what ultimately pushed me away from the phone.
I agree. I realise it is a niche market, keyboard phones, but there are still people out there that want them and they seem to be hooking into that market.
Their software isnt the best but I’m hoping in time it will become more refined along with the keyboards getting better with each iteration. BlackBerry had a lot more practice by the time of the passport and key devices so here’s hoping at least one company will fill that gap left behind.
Couldn’t agree more with Skyrim, Oblivion was the same when I tried that too I just can’t stand it. Easily some of the most over rated games IMO.
Also agree with Zelda but I think the same about all of the Nintendo IPs, they are just boring and the fan base makes me dislike them even more!
Same, I replaced the screen 3 times and the battery once before my keytwo finally gave in and I had to admit defeat.
There is no titan slim 2 yet, just the regular titan which is like a BB passport in form factor but chunkier, I’m just speculating that if they are continuing the line hopefully there will be a new slim in the future.
The few pre release reviews I have watched regarding the titan 2 say that the it is snappy and nice to use with a considerable improvement over the old one but it is still a $300 phone so it isnt going to be top of the range power able to run all the most taxing games. Really though the kinds of people this phone is aimed at aren’t the type to be as worried about that and with a 1:1 ratio screen a lot of games and such would probably be painful to play.
I suggest you check out a couple of videos if you are interested because I don’t really know the in depth details because I don’t really care about the processor etc as long as it runs the phone at an acceptable rate, I’m in it for the keyboard :D
I know it isnt the same form factor but the Titan 2 is coming soon with pre-production units being sent out to people already and estimated release in October.
I had the original titan and will probably get this to try it out but that also means a Titan Slim 2 is a possibility at some point. The key2 that the slim copies is the best phone I ever owned I think!
I mean if you want to be pedantic then;
Wheel: “a circular object connected at the centre to a bar, used for making vehicles or parts of machines move”
So a rim or alloy can and is a wheel with or without a tyre ;)
I’m not saying it can’t be scuffed, I’m saying that personally I wouldn’t use it in that way because like you say I’m from an island that spells tyre with a y :p
We used to do the same in HMV circa 98-00.
I mean I disagree. A gouge would be a big chuck taken out, a scratch would be a more surface level line where as a scuff would be a patch of surface level damage. I doubt I would ever use scuff in terms of a tyre either.
That is the wonders of language though, everyone uses it differently :D
Dude. I started feeding birds in my garden around 3 years ago, I wasnt even that interested in birds, now I have a shit load of regulars and I love watching those little bastards.
Wheel, not tyre. So I presume they curbed an alloy or similar.
From the UK and in my region they are called Strimmers.
Dunno how you missed it, it swamped /all for the last two years whilst active.
Different things work for different people and I appreciate the input regardless just definitely isn’t for me :D
You’d hate where I live then, surrounded by university students in a city where the bin lorry comes at fucking half 5 every morning. It fucking sucks and I miss the quietness of the countryside where I grew up!
I appreciate the reply but I cannot stand those moldable ones that are like ramming a lump of blu-tack into your ears xD I find the opposite to be true that they don’t provide as much sound insulation and they end up falling out due to the movement of your body as you work. At least that is my experience with them.
The foam ones I do use tend to be of slightly higher quality and for the most part I don’t find them irritable apart from every now and then when they cause me some pain as I mentioned before. 85 % of the time they are good though and will stay in place for 8 hours plus without me having to fuck around.
Generally I’m happy with the foam ones I get through work, it is just that 15% of the time when they can cause me some pain that I would like to alleviate.
I have also tried the silicone ear plugs that are sort of ribbed with a more solid centre to them that are sort of a middle ground between the foam and moldable silly putty ones but they are the most irritable of them all as well as not staying put either so would not recommend them to anyone!
Interesting to read, I work with industrial machines and wear generic foam type ones for 8+ hours a day Mon to Fri and will often wear the same ones when I’m out and about to drown out the noise of society too. I dont mind them for the most part as I’m so used to them however every other month it was cause my ear canal to be quite painful for about a week.
I have always considered them but never wanted to pay the price.
Do you have recommendations of brands or companies I can look into for a decent set? I’m in the UK
“Shape of Punk to Come” is chefs kiss been bumping that shit for over 20 years now and it is still great!
Likewise except my watch vibrates and notifies me of incoming calls so I can then not answer them.
The discord community is where I was getting all my information from. I’m sure it has moved on a bit now as this was a few years ago and whilst I do still have the phone I’ll probably wait to get the new one and then I’ll play around.
Ive been running graphene the last 3 years now and I don’t want to go back to google so once I get the titan 2 I’m going to try my best to get some form of Linux going on it. I fucking hate this touchscreen though so I can’t wait!
