Hey all, hope everyone's having an extra shiny Sunday <3 I was digging around in my storage this afternoon and found this.

Man, I wish I could activate this just so I could walk around yelling "buy!", "Sell!" and "I'll have my people call your people!" into it all day.

Maybe I could turn it into a vape somehow... Hmm.
You can roll you own 1G network to put that back online, everything it still there on GitHub. :thumbs:

If I had some of my old phones, I might have a ton of my favorite pics of ALL time of me and the kid. The husband thought I was familiar with the cloud in the "I use it way." I told him I was familiar with the cloud, and clouds are evil and I never went near it.

I have not let him forget.. Ever. LOL.

Oh man, that is a fantastic idea and it got me thinking... I've had service from pretty much every cellular provider in the US at some point or another over the years. AT&T was particularly crappy in my neighborhood one year (have they ever been good?) and to remedy their poor network quality, they were shipping out complimentary Cisco 3G MicroCells to their more demanding (louder) customers. When I eventually jumped ship, of course I didn't offer to send it back :D

Might be able to get this guy talking with some custom firmware.

Morning shinies ;)



The best thing about chemo hair - when it grows back it is as fine as baby hair. So your wife will have that to look forward to. Now get your .... home ASAP :wub:
Yeah, I know but the baby hair isn't the proper hair so I think I'm going to stay bald and shiny until I feel some proper bristles coming back, in between shaves.....I really am shiny at the moment :D

Hugs to you Ange :wub:

Good hacking!

Before you tank the case off of it something to be aware of.

One thing to take note: there are physical tamper switch build into the casing. The plastic sidings are designed to pull jumpers off of header pins when pulled apart, so take extra care when disassembling the unit. I am not sure what exactly happens when the jumper gets pulled, it might potentially brick the device.

Buddy has some info right here, I didn't dig any further.
I just recently got my hands on a AT&T/Cisco 3G MicroCell and decided to take it apart. Here's brief findings and taredown instructions for anyone who wants to do some hardware hacking. : netsec

    30mls of wasted juice and some 4 wicks thrown out, after wickings and thinning wicking and thinning for two days...
    gonna try the overnight voodoo thing again, the forces did not cooperate yesternight.
    my back hurts

    i had to put a new stock coil in nunhcaku_ old one wasn't old either.. don't get how you guys got bunch of tanks ready to go all the time: everytime i leave a (stock) coil sitting in a tank a few days it's too overflooded and gunked up there-s a 90% chance i burn it before i can get it wicking right again.

    i'm bummed abt the rta's_ like the times the elevate vaped like a dream were just_ dreams

    thoughts with you @charlie1465 and everyone going thru this_ thoughts with you and yours
    Don't know if it has any bearing to anybody, but it sometimes helps me to tell myself that like everything, good and bad, this too shall pass_

    I was just looking into that. No worries if I brick it. It's been living in a box in storage since the mid-2000s and I can't say I've missed it much :thumbs:

    Most tanks left for days unsed will flood. Simply take out the stock coil and shake it out. Should be fine after that.
