Is registration broken or am I an idiot?
I have tried with different browsers, different machines and on different days and the registration screen continue to error off...
The string you entered for the image verification did not match what was displayed

...which is bull**** because after the first time I have been very careful.
This has been an ongoing issue for at least a few days. I tried to register a few days ago and the image capture isn't working. Can't email them about it bc that requires a recaptcha too. It's sad that they aren't on top of this by now.

That site is nothing compared to XDA anyways. Im sure there are much more people with Evo's on this forum, than that one. I remember when the Pre came out and most the people there freaked out... "This is PPCGeeks... Not mobile phone geeks." And now the PPC is dead. Ask anyone with an HD2, ha ha ha!
The registration should be fixed. I had to disable reCAPTCHA...for some reason it broke.
Re: The Evo...we have quite a few users that migrated to the Evo and still use PPCGeeks. We were known as a WM forum, just like XDA, but both sites have adopted Android and are continuing to grow.

I had that happen at another site...
What you can do then is send a e-mail with the issue to
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
and a couple others. Chances are at least one of those is set up, and most sites have a blanket so any [email protected] goes to their inbox.

Yeah, we have [email protected] setup.
Also, it seemed to only effect a few people, so it might have been related to reCAPTCHA. The first report we got was from 6/8/10, then we never got any others until yesterday, however, we had other people successfully register during that time too.
So if its still an issue, let me know, but I changed the CAPTCHA engine and I was able to successfully register an account.
Ah PPCgeeks. Used to be my hangout back in the days of the Apache and Mogul. Glad to see you guys are still kickin

The URL was different and the site was difficult to navigate because you had to fix the links within the site yourself. At least I did.

Worked for me just going to samsung-firmwares.com/firmwares.htm
Still does, actually... Title changed to Samfirmwares, so they're probably redirecting it now.
It was down for me for a while.

Yeah I think it was just hit or miss on how people either had it cached, bookmarked, or w/e. Either way a good heads up post for people who didn't notice this a few days back.
Good info, I was wondering where it had gone.
I asked if they could release the CORRECT code, and this is the response I got:
Thank you for your continuous interest on our product.
We would like to know about your issue.
You mean that you cann''t even build the source?
Please send full details of your problem for Kernel source. (ex: build error log, build Environment)
We will provide the response ASAP, but this week is our Thanksgiving Day.
so we get 4 days off to celebrate (2010/09/21 ~ 2010/09/24)
We ask for your understanding regarding this matter.
Thank you.

Dean Sir,
There is only one "n" in "can".
I am happy to hear that you are interested in my problem. My problem is I don't have what I want. Thanksgiving, whatever iteration of it you are having, is comprised of two parts, the second of which is "giving". With you giving me what I want now, you will in turn earn my thanks.
This should make everything okay.
Sincerely,
X

Open Source Office? Something like that.
Perhaps we can get one of the more experienced people like Koush to type up a response to them? Anyone want to PM him?

doesn't look like chinese to me tho...
Samsung is a Korean company, so I would assume it's Korean.
Don't bother Koush with that, he hasn't been focusing on getting the fascinate kernel to compile, you'll just be forcing him to hit the delete button one more time on his PM box.
Angel or myself will discuss this with hc, jt, noobnl, Lil, a few others and figure out how best to describe our problems to them.
Thanks for posting your response, as of now we hadn't hear anything back.
Im no longer allowed to read posts on my phone as i just skim. bad idea.

yes... i've been dealing with a lot of korean companies, but all the e-mail responses are not made by any sort of technical engineers or have at least the knowledge of providing the proper answers.
These ppl just take the keywords out of the question and simply replies with the best matching response from their 'pre-made' messages...
so... not really helpful unless you really call them or go up to them...
fallingup said:
Guys this is just the canned response you get for emailing them. When we requested the source in the first place we got this, then another email that told us source was released. My inbox is full of the canned responses right now because of how many times I have contacted them to fix the source that they released. Just keep nagging them!

didn't sound canned to me.. sounded like a real person. but I don't know, I never even got a response.
Guys,
I posted a message in the topic 'The best way to convey your message to Samsung is via Facebook' see Post 14.
In that post I mentioned messages I am sending to @samsungukmobiles are not appearing on their web page here.
This now makes me believe that someone at Samsung is deliberately ignorinf the tweets being sent.
Given that I was told Samsung use Twitter as their prime message conveyer I am wondering what the heck is going on.
I've sent off a message to Samsung but as of yet I've not heard anything back from them.
Therefore, what I would ask of you is those that have a Twitter account, could you please send off a tweet to @samsungukmobile and afterwards look to see if it appears on their twitter page.
Again their twitter page is here.
Could you please post back stating either yes your message was added to their twitter page, or no, it was not added.
The more tweets that are cancelled the stronger my argument with them.
This way I will know one way or another if the problem is my end.
Thanks
Beards
It will not get added to their page, it will be added to your own page showing that you have sent them a tweet. It will however appear in their time-line that they see privately along with the other hundreds of tweets they are bound to receive every month.

So the messages from other users (not Froyo related) that are displayed on their twitter page... how come they are generated?
EDITED:
Just realized, the messages from other users are simply Samsungs replies.
Okay, it then proves Samsung are merely not bothering to reply to any of the tweets being sent yes.

Nail on the head
Great....
If anyone else can make a tweet to Samsung and lets see if they too are ignored.
With the results I'll have further ammo to blast back at Samsung.
that's the difference in nature between Tweeter vs. Facebook
Tweeter is like a 1 way communication, it only shows what the account owner types in the page
Facebook is 2 way, you can post stuff directly into their Wall, the account owner can delete the stuff if they choose to, but if they care, they will leave it there and reply back to it, or simply ignore it.
i sent a tweet to samsung uk as a test, let see if they get back to me
Is there anything in particular you would like me to ask them? Just incase they do reply, you would have a useful answer

Yes please..... Ask them:-
"It has been mentioned quite a lot of replies to @samsungukmobile are being ignored. Proof of this is shown at @samsungukmobile where there has not been any replies nor comments since the 20th Sep".
It's a long tweet so I'll leave it to you to abreviate as you see fit.
Thanks.
Beards
EDITED:
Just noticed Samsung have actually posted a tweet....... Their first since 20th Sep.
Unfortunately it has NOTHING to do with any of the issues we are talking about.... It's to do with the Galaxy Tab where they are asking readers to Check out iGizmo's piece on the Galaxy Tab, which basically is yet another marketing plan.

Many thanks.... The more who try this ther stronger my case.
On a same note ~ I've posted many, many times on the UK Facebook and just the same... NOTHING back from Samsung to either declare or defend the posts.
I didn'd receive a response either, although my tweet was a bit harsh so it's to be expected, LOL

It would appear at least your Samsung twitter part responds. The UK twitter clearly does not.
That is the Indian Twitter account, im seriously suprised that they are replying to you :O
Sad part is that they are stating the release of Froyo @ end of October
thanks for the list

I've sent a few messages over the past few days but nothing back off them. Methinks their continued insistence that froyo was coming at the end of the month was wrong and they are now keeping their heads down.

the developer should take it offline till its ready for use to avoid any bad publicity. Nice initiative tough.

Hey guys,
I am still able to send Google+ invites as of 12:30pm on Saturday, July 9.
I'm happy to add people in batches. All you need to do is go to my blog and send me an email through the contact form. It's easier for me to manage the requests that way. If you would please "Like" my blog, I would appreciate the support. The "Like" button is located at the top left. Thanks guys.
I'll add people as long as I have the button available. First come first served. I go in the order of the email I receive. Hope this helps. Please follow the instructions as I get a ton of requests and those that follow the instructions get my attention quicker. Google+ invites post
Big thanks to theduce for getting this started and trying to help everyone. I thought I would share the load while I can.

No... The button appeared last night. I've stayed logged in and I'm thinking maybe it's a glitch. It appears to be gone for everyone else.....
I can send out the invites. Whether they are letting people in right now is another story. I'm getting mixed reports. Many are getting in and some are getting the over capacity message and have to join later.

This morning it was gone for me....this afternoon its now back. I've only sent out maybe 10-12 invites max from the time I got in. My buddy checked this morning who probably hasn't even sent half that many and his button was gone too. Haven't heard back from him if his is back or not though. I can't tell any real rhyme or reason to the whole off/on deal in general with the invite/ability to join process either. But I do know I like Google+ just in this testing/infancy stage a hell of alot more than Facebook.
Got mine within minutes of sending you my email. Thanks button hit and, of course, one more vote for Lost and Tired.
