Alas, I cant post in Dev threads yet (no enough posts), I have to create this thread.
Is it possible to get alternate download locations for ROMs. I have been frustrated recently, having tried to download ROMs just for it to terminate at rought 90-90% and give me a error with a link timeout or similar error.
Not all of us have super-fast boradbands and we will appreciate it if ROMs can be uploaded to locations with resumable and multi-threaded downloads. Else, might as well just give up on Android
You tried to PM the Devs? Just because you can't post in the Development section doesn't mean your PM's don't work.
Also most popular ROMs have alternative "Mirror" links. Just search within the thread to find them.

Most of the downloads here including ROMs are on RapidShare. I understand whyt RapidShare requires you to enter an access code. However, you have to enter only the characters with cats on them. I can't tell which characters have cats and which don't. So I can't access any files. Based on a Google search, I'm not the only one with this problem. Is there another service where these files can be posted?

Appreciate the replies regarding alternative places to store files. Hopefully those who post ROMs etc would be kind enough to use one of those alternative locations.

Hi,
I'm offering anyone who wants it; a stable mirror for the latest versions of their roms. I'll happily host the latest stable and latest test versions of any rom you choose.
Same goes for any software/tools you may want hosting.
Can provide stat tracking if you want.
PM me and i will give you an FTP Account you can use to upload your roms to.
All i ask is that you not include any illegal material
Oops, wrong forum >.<
Hi, I just wanted to share this post and link I found surfing the net looking to see if it would be possible to hack and mod a flytouch II. It says here that telechips just opened access to the kernel source and eclair build they use and sure enough I went to said website which is the telechips webpage and found two files the kernel and the eclair files in .tar.gz I will be totally honest i can flash roms without a problem but i am NOT a developer, all I can do is point people to what I find and help by testing ROMS if they become available, Hope some developer finds this useful and we can start building our own stuff from this.
Post with recognition of original person to find this goodiness

Now since I didn't know if like it happens all the time the site, or section or files go missing I downloaded them and kept 2 copies at diferent sites. If the above link fails let me know will post files for you guys. Now I have two questions and I hope all the people who read this can give me a answer.
1) Is this enough to start making customs ROMS?
2) If the above answer is no, what else is needed?
EDIT: First post on xda, Mods move this if it's in the wrong area
There are several users looking for this lockscreen and would love it ported to there device!
Currently I am attempting to port it over to CyanogenMod7, for the DroidX specifically.
If devs/themers have any tips or would like to take over please get ahold of me!
I need help with the .smali and .xml files
If you have any previous experience in porting across manufacturers (htc-motorala) please post things you ran into here.
Such as converting certain files, necessary modifications, etc...
Here is an .apk that may or may not be of some assistance.
Here is a thread with bugs that they are encountering durring there porting process (obviously not all the bugs will happen when moving from htc-dx but it's more to look out for)
Since I can't post in development. xD
Since so many installing betas from community shared links etc. It would be nice to gather all in one place including discussion and sharing of noted bugs etc. I know most people running official betas wont bother to send their logs so how could they improve the firmwares for our pleasure? If you want this i will try to make it happen ? if you post links etc. Please remember to specify origin as its sometimes bugs related to networks etc.
