[sarcasm ON]Nice to see you gave credit there levesy for where the roms came from[/sarcasm off]

We share our resources at htcpedia, and dont even get credits around here at xda, its a shame.
Some users post the roms in diffrent sections in xda, and take creds and honor for releasing them...
We dont mind ppl mirror the roms, we expected that, but not giving creds to Tom, who has provided the sources is just sad

just a little consideration from me, the worst cooker of the world
maybe l3v5y have others sources
the only SAD thing is that we have to wait a "war" for finally see a public release of sources for all cookers
think about it itje,
nothing personal,
today i've posted my rom on htcpedia too

you know Tom_c released them, why are you behaving like such an ar*e over this?
and before you start going on about "other websites" and forums, remember that you've also started working for another website/forum, so it's awee bit hypocritical to moan about others..

If you got it from that source not, it doesn´t matter, i just think that you have put yourself on a position that you don´t really need to be.
But hey, you´re a XDA moderator, you can do/say anything right?
That´s what i think.
Cheers.

i'm pissed off of this situation
you can prove it?
stop acting like a child, we have to enjoy what we have, doesn't matter who share
some people never forget ruff ruff and dutty story
why we can't share everything without problems?

Right, some of the ROMs may well have come from HTCPedia (they aren't all my links) the ones I uploaded weren't, but you'll have to deal with that.

Actually so many people has 1.43 ROMs, it's stupid accuse somebody because he has shared the same thing obtained from an other source.
I know that share a lot of ROMs is great thing, but if this is the result that's not good.
I'm a moderator of some important italian forums, and in that place they call SPAM to link other forums dealing the same argument.
just my 2 cent

I would like to call all XDA friends go pickup the sources from HTCPedia and mirror them at XDA but don't forget to say thank you.
XDA is the roots where we all learned to cook/tweak/develop so I realy think we should do this to keep XDA alive and respect all members that brought so many nice stuff to us in passed.
It looks a bit weird to my opinion that the same people at HTCPedia are moderators here and publishing the sources there don't you think?
They learned here too so what's the deal?
Don't we all like XDA to grow and stay alive?
That's just my humble opinion, don't kill me for it please.

Providing a free FAST ROM host/mirror

Hey everyone, I would like to help the Hero ROM makers and users out. Rather than using a ad infested, slow free file sharing host, I'll provide free hosting on my servers.
The ROM listing is at: http://dl.bikcmp.com/
Note: When you click that link, it will redirect to a server. When sharing links, for example you are redirected to 'http://server1.bikcmp.com/rom/abc.zip' (just a example) and you're going to share a link on a ROM thread, just use
http://dl.bikcmp.com/rom/abc.zip, replacing abc.zip with the path to the ROM.
To add your ROMs to the server, either PM me, leave a reply on this thread, or contact me on the Sprint hero IRC channel (I'd rather have you do this, so I can talk to you faster) at http://widget.mibbit.com/?server=irc.bikcmp.com&channel=%23hero-cdma
This would not be here if it wasn't for the very generous few who donated their hard earned money to support projects such as this. Your kindness has not been forgotten.
Enjoy.
Jason(bikcmp)

Sure your host can handle your 25k+ downloads per week plus all the other downloads?

The servers (more than one. ) have a extremely, EXTREMELY fast uplink speed. 2.5 Gigabits a second enough for you? On 3 servers?

I don't think he was trying to be mean, I think he was saying "Are you sure that your server can handle this?". I could see someone hosting it from their home or something to try to help out, but they have a very slow connection. These are real servers, don't worry hehe. I do work with servers, so I know stuff about them .

As much as I hate to do it...
*bump*
I posted this at a bad time... not many people are on XDA at 12 am... hehe

Overall I like to host on my own server because I can completely control it and can easily pull downloads or change something if I need to. But I know on release days my site drags so having some decent mirrors would be nice. I'll be in touch. And thanks for this.

I know what you mean; before I didn't want to host my rom on my servers because of bandwidth concerns. Now, I doubt it will be a problem .

DEVs - You've been called upon to remove an app!

This is quoted from the developer of SetCPU and his thread:
ROM developers: I became aware of a number of devs who are now bundling this version of SetCPU with ROMs. For now, do not include SetCPU with your ROM. If it is in your ROM, please remove it. I'm probably going to find out a solution to this but barely anyone is giving (enough) credit or mentioning that it's also in the Market, and on top of that, they are putting their own donate links in there (the worst offenders do not give credit at all). Most devs are putting the APK in /system/app making purchasing (donating!) and upgrading SetCPU difficult, and rendering the one time donate link useless. That's a kick in the face to me. No dev has bothered to ask me for permission. It's really irritating me - SetCPU has been a huge effort, it's older than most of your ROMs (look at the date of this topic, look at how many times it's been updated - this isn't even the full changelog), and I would like people to at least read this thread.
I appreciate the work you're doing, but link to this thread instead. It is free here.
Here is the original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419

I posted this a couple weeks ago.

well I believe you should post this through the entire site as many of the dev’s have moved on to other phones I did read the notice about 3 weeks ago, it was posted, Hopefully others will follow your request even if they are just upgrading an existing rom or a new one from scratch.

Yeah, this is a very good app. .. I had no promblem getting the paid version after useing it compared to the overclock widget

Thread moved to General.

I removed from my rom before it came out of testing phase. I actually prefer overclock widget but that's a different convo

Unless this is a PAID APP there is no reason anyone can't use it any way they see fit. This is an open source community, which means there are no requirements to give credit, that is a courtesy. I agree that they should you give you credit, but you have no right to say they can't use it.

If u look in the market it is a paid app. On xda he gives it out for free but respectfully asks that since its a paid app he shares here for free then he would like people to be directed to his page to get it. Makes sense to me. There is a lot of info on his page and u find out who made it and how to use it.

First off, this is another bad call by mods toi move this to a general section when out of respect for the developer of the app, it was posted in he development section since it is directly affecting ROMs that are being made.
I agree it should be sitewide but that's not my business.
In response to you, chfields, I really hope you're not directing that response to me personally. I am not the one who made the original post. I made this post so the guys here who make ROMs can respect a man's wishes. Simple as that.
cbarlan: you're absolutely correct. Devs here, as well as anywhere else, should be respectful enough to post a guide on how to use it or whatever, or at least post a simple link and not include the application, per the app dev's request.
Guys, it's a respect issue mainly. I aint stirring the **** pot, aint trying to make anyone upset, and I don't think this information will get the proper attention it deserves being shoved off into a non-related sub-forum when this information directly affects the development of any ROMs that use this app.

I am well. I posted it after he posted about it on Twitter. However, I got some jerks that posted on mine saying that I was just trying to stir up trouble and stuff...I am not..I just want people to be recognized for their work. He updates often and works hard. OC widget gets updated once every 6 months. How are you doing?

I am on top of the world and ready to help people out wherever I can! Thanks for asking. I think people might feel like I am trying to stir trouble too but trays not the case. When the guy posts something like that, attention needs brought to it. Know what I mean?

EDIT: It seems to be a problem with the advertising, I've just implemented it. Give it a few hours to settle.
If it's not working by 21:30 GMT I will disable it.

Not working for me at 23:08 using Win7 and Firefox 3.6.6 but works fine using Internet Explorer.
Ewww! I just clicked on the Root your Desire page just for a click about the site
http://rootmydroid.co.uk/guides/desire/howto-root-your-htc-desire/
I REALLY don't like that invasive pull page advertisement, good luck in making a few bob from the site but that is bad....
Maybe Firefox Adblock plus is the cause, it knows we don't want ads so is showing a blank page instead of the invasive full screen ad.
I think the page is loading okay but a split second later the ad takes over so all we see in FF is a blank screen

s**t I've just checked and the advertising company was hiding 'full page ads' under the more tab. I will remove it tomorrow.
The last thing I want to do is annoy you guys. I would never put so much advertising on, that's why I don't like theunlockr.com
I suppose this is why we have beta testing...

Ads now successfuly disabled. Good to know the android browser can cope with WordPress emergencies!

Thats better.
Bit late now so I will have a click around another time.
Good work though from what I can see

[Q] Is this e610 Lollipop ROM real?

I found a Lollipop Rom to e610 on this site:

At the time, I was very happy. But they create three links, and all of them had survey. Ultimately, I was suspicious and decided to talk with the masters.
I know what I did with the link is not right, but I ask you to understand my motives

No, man! When you notice a survey you have found a fake link...
This is a 100% phishing website, it is well done but it s a fake!!!! Do not try to enter your number os similar data on these kind of websites.
If you look better they posted also "roms" for other phones with same words and same comments too :/

Thanks!

Analysing the site, we can see that it is well done, with a nice html, but if you look at writing, you can see it's very well explained and dedicated to beginners (the only way to fall), and gives no information about the Rom (if it is AOSP, Unofficial CM...), and we're accustomed to people here who give little information, and dedicated to those who know at least enough to install one yourself Rom.
