@ticky Yup, some installations fail because the downloads don't work but I managed to install a shell

@noiob oh no! Well, I’ll have to dig out my Prē 3 and give it another look 🤔

@ticky there doesn't seem to be too much social stuff, a handful of Twitter clients and a Whatsapp implementation that I won't even try

@noiob I miss the heyday where it was possible to have SMS, XMPP and Skype conversations all in the one Messages app. Absolute messaging perfection.

@ticky every time I get a cool old phone I wish I could've had it when it was new because hoo dang I would've loved that

@ticky okay, phnx doesn't give you a signup screen and Sparrow just doesn't start

@noiob ahh oh no :(

@ticky oh god I remember trying to tether via this thing and barely squeezing enough data through it to do a git push

@noiob I had the Prē 3, so I think it had pretty good 3G and Wi-Fi compatibility. I do remember it crashing whenever it saw a 3G tower after a particular Qualcomm baseband firmware update it, being a phone which was never officially released, of course never received.

@ticky oh no :D

the borrowed Pre 1 I used for a while (I just got this one today) usually had the phone app crash when receiving a call which was… inconvenient
