Ironically I preferred playing with the cardboard - found it more expandable and less restrictive :)

I would highly recomend flashing it to corvu5 with sp1. It really is so much better. It is more compatible with games and very fast + you can overclock it. I am very impressed with corvus5 rom. :rolleyes:)

I am very impressed with corvus5 rom. :)) so much better is a very subjective statement to make, i have used all roms and have found cm7 to be the best, it plays games great, it runs flash, it has working geolocation for google maps, earth, weather apps etc and it doesnt fc or stumble on me, and you can overclock it as well. so the best advice is try them all find out what suits you best then stick with it :rolleyes:
Guest RockVacirca Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Do as mxbob says, except when the paint dries replace your vega with the cardboard cutout, and play with the real vega to your heart's content in the shed at the end of the garden. On your birthday, unwrap the cardboard lookalike, and when it doesn't turn on tut and say 'damn, the quality of products nowadays'. Rock

Rock Yeah, but then you have to go through all the palarver of pretending to take it back to the shop to swap for a working one. Actually that could work given the average Dixons employee, you could end up with two vega's?

Actually that could work given the average Dixons employee, you could end up with two vega's? why stop at two? you could keep doing it indefinitly i for one look forward to the first thread saying "i just bought a vega and it appears to just be a piece of painted cardboard - is this normal? and which rom woudl you recommend i put on it"

Guest derffie Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 This is so funny! I'll give you all a free cutout and keep vega for just such purposes!

The generosity of folks on this forum is incredible. I was wondering, do you think that picture is the equivilent of tablet porn - A piccie of the Vega is a porn queen, a piccie of an Ipad is a minger :)
