Impressions of BBCrackmans v6 (If you are NOT a bbos mod)
View Poll Results: Would you pay for an OS for your Storm
- Voters
- 75. You may not vote on this poll
- I would like to get some unbiased opinions on BBCM's v6 from some VIP members who paid (ie--not a bbos mod) on your impressions, pros and cons05-26-09 03:30 PMLike 0
- I have not used any of BBCM's releases as of yet, But..
My opinion: If I new for a fact, that the DEV offering the OS had access to the OS source and thus was programming improvements, fixes, and adding user requested features, I would pay! for those releases. Sort of what like the guys at XDA Developers do for Windows Mobile devices (They Cook there own ROMS). But if someone is just cutting and pasting pieces from one OS release to another, then NO! (S**t I can do that myself).

- probably not....but if i must say so myself....bbcrackman makes probably the best hybrids out there.....if i HAD to pay...i would probably buy his...05-26-09 06:29 PMLike 0
- You don't have to pay for it, it gets released for free on Thursday.
As for the hybrid itself, its been running pretty well for me far. I have had issues with the media player, but its been a problem for me with all the builds so far.
I think its an issue because of all that I'm demanding from the phone when I am watching a video. I stream the audio via bluetooth, have a couple bbm chats going on, receive calls, emails, etc. Eventually something always crashes.

- To be honest, the first ever Hybrid i used was BBcrackman.. it was good !!
But i think now, We here on CB have one of the best hybrid makers in Lyricidal, I find his to be super... he goes the extra mile to help those having probs... his shrink OS rocks...
BBcrackman was and is one of the best... but IMHO.. I think he is getting a run for his money!!
Pay for an OS? what will they think of next, a coin slot on the side of my stormLast edited by Maples; 05-26-09 at 07:11 PM.

the poll and the thread title don't have anything to do with each other....you can have bbcrackman's hybrid for free on Thursday.....
advance release of the various hybrids released on BBOS is just one of the perks of the V.I.P. membership at BBOS.....
one of the other perks is less crackpot posters.....
(not you olta....just seconding your reply)05-26-09 07:34 PMLike 0 - Well, I am not surprised. I think this topic comes up everytime its released. You dont have to load them, it is only there if you want them. I cant believe that some individuals have the misconseption that you pay for my Hybrids....thats funny. As stated before you can wait and download it on the 28th if you want. Being a VIP just means you get it before anyone else and that is only one of the great perks of being a VIP at BBOS.
I agree that lyricidal makes an awesome Hybrid as well. I use his Shrink a OS too. But apparently there is anomosity and for no reason. We are a community of BlackBerry users that come together to help one another by doing what it takes to improve upon products that are deficiant in some manner, or help members understand more about the devices they chose to purchase, either the newbie or the experienced user.
In a nutshell, you can use my Hybrid or not. You can be a VIP member or not. We are all here to help one another and get information for ourselves.
I am sorry some of you feel the way you do.
BBCrackman05-26-09 07:59 PMLike 0 - classy post crackman....very well put....
unfortunately no matter where you go, the fanboys are there that feel they have to cheer on their phone, os, video game system, fill in blank......
anyone whose used the various OS's and hybrids and have read these forums should know that our Storms all seem to act differently....what may run good this time might not the next.....05-26-09 08:15 PMLike 0 - Well, I am not surprised.

BBCrackman05-26-09 08:33 PMLike 0 - My 2 cents on the matter....
We should be thanking BBcrackman, Lyricidal, Holli, and Sith for all the hard work they put into releasing these. They don't get paid and apparently some feel the need to be rude. There is no where that says you have to pay to have this hybrid, it is a perk to VIP members at BBOS. If you want it now then sign up, if you don't want to pay then wait two more days.05-26-09 08:36 PMLike 0 - To be honest, the first ever Hybrid i used was BBcrackman.. it was good !!

But all of these people have the hybrid, I do not. The only difference between them and I is that they paid a fee and I did not. So, how is it that they are not paying for the hybrid. And I am sure that you have NO vested interest in people paying money to that site, while I do? (sarcasm)05-26-09 09:37 PMLike 0
