Yea, dont see why it should be shut down.
its just motivation instead of doing something for free.
I have no problem putting in. and i know many others dont.

I will paypal $5 to whoever figures full root out.
I doubt it will speed up the process but full root is worth $5 me regardless.
I hope more people pledge their cash, XDA devs put up with a lot of crap
and don't get much in return, this seems like a good way to show how much they're appreciated.

Bump.
What do you guys think?!

EVOReviews Wants to expand testing

Mods please delete this post, this didn't turn out at all how I wanted it to. I wasn't trying to get a new phone from anyone or anything like that, sorry I came off that way. I also wasn't trying to make any monetary gain. I just shot this thread up real quick before I went somewhere today and I obviously didn't think about how it would be perceived to everyone.

Are you kidding me, you come here and ask us to pitch in money to buy you a phone?
Please go back to the other side. We support our own developers and moderators who put in countless time and energey to develop, publish, and
answer. This is who we should support, and don't always properly do so.
And they don't come with their hands out telling us if we give them this, they will do that.
Go back to you little site and quit trolling here.

So you want us to buy you a phone so you can review and post about kernels/roms/boot animations on your Comcast At Home site?
I mean....we do this here for free... I'm not sure exactly what service you offer, but other than putting out an opinion that is probably incredibly biased by your personal taste....doesn't seem like anything anyone would be interested in...

This looks like something xda frowns upon, and why would we buy you a new phone. I will gladly donate and help developers who bricked there phones to help the community. But this is like a homeless person begging for money..
Donating to get a review of stuff, uh no...

are there people out there stupid enough to fall for this?

Come on, people, be nice. It never hurts to ask.
At the same time, if what you're asking is ridiculously laughable, then...well...never mind. Carry on, people, until the thread's deleted. This might prove fun for an otherwise boring work day.

Sure, I'll gladly reciprocate if you don't mind first contributing towards the needed hardware for my website soon to be called porsche911review.net

Seriously dude, nobody's going to buy you a phone so you can "review" it and put links to roms and stuff on your free Comcast website. If you were a developer, and wanted to help the community, maybe.

This is what gets me....hell Domains are CHEAP, hosting is CHEAP. As many hits as you don't get a day, you could probably run a site for less than $50 a year.

Wow, I didn't mean to offend anyone, I just can't afford the phone to do the testing on, so I thought I would throw it out there. If someone I knew had the phone I would just borrow it from them every time a new kernel dropped for updating. Mods can remove this thread, offending people was the last thing I wanted.

$450? The hell?
Look on Craigslist, in my area Evo and Epic 4G's go for around $200-250
Edit: Not to mention that you could get one with a bad ESN for even less.

That reminds me, I wonder if my Angelfire website is still around.....

what is this guy smoking?

check this out. dude just swapped the back cover and calling it a limited edition evo and selling double the price..whata douche

At the bottom of the page there's a "ask a question" link, that's what I used.
And who made the offer for the phone today? He turned it down though.

What's up with the box though?

Thanks Spencer.
This listing would be totally fine if he had put just "Oreo" in quotes in the title to get people to look at it, but then explained it was simply a different battery cover in the listing details. But, its blatantly obvious he is trying to dupe people on this.

I'm not asking what should happen, im saying what happen to him. The op saying "bringing him down" so "we" succeed in bringing him down. But what happened?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk

I think we succeeded in giving him a headache and alot of negative press. They say that ANY attention is better than none at all tho. I know the site was down for like a day or so but it was up and running not shortly after and is currently. Here ya go:http://lmgtfy.com/?q=akaskriller

Skrillers site it up... BUT, I believe we were able to get all the paid apps off the site (which I am sure was a big draw for some to his site) and I believe a lot of the developers ROMs have been removed. I imagine the stuff up there now is his kanging.
Still illegal to have it behind a $5 donate wall.. still not crediting our developers... but the community is a lot better off now than it was a month ago.

Not trying to defend him but access to the site costs $5 not the roms or cracked apps. The apps are not on his site, their just links. So technically its not illegal.
What you guys did was helpful somewhat. You made people aware of his action but bought attention to him. Good or bad, doesn't matter.

You are incorrect. You can't put Android behind a $5 donate wall, which it is. He DID have paid apps on his site, because of us, he no longer does. Maybe the guy who made the app will actually get paid now. There is a thought.

10 hrs? That's plenty of time. Most people don't bid until the end anyway. Look up 'sniping'. If thats what they still call it these days.

No wonder these are cheap; they are not brand-new.

does ebay let you bid on your own auctions?
maybe, if you win it, you can ask yourself if you can just pick it up from yourself...so you wont have to pay shipping to yourself?

You can't estimate what an item will sell for on an eBay auction because the real bidding doesn't start until there is about 1 hour left.

I've been putting them on my watch list to see what they are selling for. The average prices for 16 gig have been somewhere about 365 plus whatever the seller is charging for shipping ....so your right in there
The bundles with dock aren't fairing so well. If you sold better to split them up.

Cool. I want a dock, maybe I can buy the bundle and break it up.
FYI: I start everything on e-bay for $.99 and haven't been burned once.
