At 9 years old i had my first smartphone, a 40EUR chinese brand called 'myphone'.
I was obsessed with videogames and it didnt have android 5, which i needed for certain games, so i started searching the internet and i found out about custom ROMs, after bricking the phone…
I created an active x control in the free version of VB5 that was a "soft button" that mimic'd the buttons in Internet Exploder 3. I submitted the code to CNET and it went viral... it got me my first IT job in 1996.
