A BIG and hearty: Happy Birthay to Ashok

the founder & developer of Delight Custom firmwares 

 

Ashok released the first version of Delight custom firmwares on the 21st of August 2011 and his firmware was always one of the best. Thousands of users followed his work and were always anxious to get the next version. 

He is really a great guy and moderator at Dailymobile forum and tries to help people whereever he can. 

His mods and ideas are still up-to-date today ;)

 

 

I'm finally back
  

 A lot of you may have read the blog post reading that I was going to be offline for "at least 4 weeks"

...well, 4 weeks turned into 8 weeks. sorry about that

But all turned out well. A lot of work, sweat, blood and money were the price for a place to live that I call my "home"

 

now that I am done, I decided to get back to business and start with Delight again. Explanations will follow....

 Small review for CameraPro Qt (and home pics)

just for example:

my bathroom before

 

inbetween

 Now:

 

pictures were all made with my 808. the "before" & "inbetween" were both made with the standard camera function

BUT the last three were made with CameraPro QT 3.4.6

Awesome, Awesome Camera app. AN absolute must-have for Symbian devices. 

6 exposure settings, 7 focus modes including the best macro pics I have ever seen, 5 additional effect, white balance, Iso settings, bracketing, burst pics, anti-shake and a lot more. Worth every penny.

here are some macro pics:

• For Nokia 808 Pureview:

 - just about the same as above, except for the changes we had already made to 808 in v1.1

• DELIGHT THEME: made by LAO STIA 

many many thanks to him for his work. give credits and follow his work by clicking his name above

- great icon set. 

- colored and semi-transparent

- nice background

- not too fancy, but fancy enough

- overall just suites Delight

 I chose some different colored backgrounds, just so you  guys get a feeling for the icon set

• DELIGHT conversation skin: 

made by Cahjoss. a great designer, that has been modding symbian graphic resources for ages. BIG thanks to him as well. Please give proper credit to him, too
- Delight background
- Kang Shao style conversation bubbles

 

 

• NEW: 

 I bought a Nokia 500 and am currently working on Delight for it as well. Things are going well, and I hope to get it modded equally to other Delight refresh cfw's like C7 & N8 
except for hardware restrictions of course. for example: it doesn't have FMTX, NFC hardware resources.
Otherwise I would say I am half way through with modding 

of course, with language sets, Delight capabilties, re-partitionised and everything you would like about Delight custom firmwares

• NEW AGAIN:

I am getting a Nokia 700 this week and am hoping to mod it modded equally to other Delight FP2 custom firmware as the 808...

we'll see how it goes

If I get some good deals on other Symbian belle phones, I assume they will follow
