BangersInMyKnickers posted:lol winmo5/6 was build on the CE kernel and I think even 7 was. They were abominations that couldn't even support multitouch without 3rd party software and a ground-up re-write on the nt kernel was necessary. The problem was they did that re-write three times and alienated everyone in the process anyone pining for ce era winmo is remembering some rose tinted bullshit. the platform was an absolute goddamn trash fire, even by the standards of the early to mid 2000s hey guess what, you have to use the task manager to close apps, or they stay in memory and eventually your phone will soft lock in a way that's not immediately obvious. they #1 thing to silently crash? the mother loving phone app. hope you weren't expecting any calls oh and early activesync may just delete all your mail, just 'cause.

I am sorry, thread The local electronics megastore lured me into the store to impulse buy Timbs dumb new 15" donglebook with a $300 discount. It was still obscenely expensive. RIP mid 2010 15" i7 macbook, you were the best lappy I ever had

infernal machines posted:anyone pining for ce era winmo is remembering some rose tinted bullshit. the platform was an absolute goddamn trash fire, even by the standards of the early to mid 2000s ios didn't demonstrate what kind of kernel you needed, it demonstrated that a smartphone should be single-tasking and established sane ui concepts that made it work (not least fluid touch, which wp7 did get right despite claims to the contrary). the biggest problems with wp7 was that ie was not up to snuff and that silverlight needed more work. the kernel was not a problem any user pined to have solved. they should have just stuck webkit on there for the moment (edge is now competent, but that took half a decade) and kept working on the frameworks. iterating ce would also have been necessary, but that was the easier problem. not least such an approach would have avoided badly squandering nokias efforts besides, the original point was that it would have done *better*, and a 0.3% market share now would still be doing better

i had a wp7 phone, and i agree it was a pretty solid platform, with absolutely nothing on it. i was using ce-era winmo as a shorthand to refer to the old windows mobile platform

iirc the pearl thing wasn't a memory leak, it was just incredibly dumb handling of running out of room for SMS. when device memory filled up for whatever reason, it would simply trash incoming messages with no alert or notification

bbry literally had no roadmap or plans for refactoring or anything. it was just hack the java spaghetti code enough to get this years phones out the door on schedule, and then start hacking support for next years features, rinse and repeat the miracle was those late era bbos 6 boom-boom-plow phones working at all
