HAHAH yeah I just read that post, some people just have the nerves to put out such bussiness. But what can we say? What about all of the other people charging others to jailbreak their iphone?

you should totally report him saying something about the fact that its ILLEGAL to profit off of freeware such as android and the like
How low can you go...........
Jeez,what can we do about it?
There's already a thread for this...
Lol....everyone should spam him with texts. If running android use sms bomber.
Mod close this thread please as its already up,don't need another.

It looks like he has the stock rom too, so it'll probably have robot voice problems. So he's basically getting $100+ more for putting files on an SD card.

really? I'd like for you to show me the law where such a thing is mentioned.
I'm not defending the guy, but i hate seeing people talk law w/o a clue.
Android is not freeware. under the Apache license, android can be redistributed for profit, even the gpl parts (kernel, webkit) can be sold as a completed work given that you provide the buyer the source for the affected parts (source that was gpl and it's derivative works).
it'sthe reason htc can claim copyright infringement on people posting ports of their builds but still have to release kernel sources.
besides, this guy is selling a service, not source. if the makers of haret made a provision that it can't be included in such a service then they could sue, until then, this is something that is sleazy, but legal.

Whats wrong with that?
He is selling his phone with a few extra bits and peices. At least he is upfront about what it is and where it comes from.
The bloke on Craigslist is selling his time to put the files on the SD card, big deal. Some people don't know how to do it so he is filling the hole.
Seriously guys, don't you have better things to do?
the title of this thread should be .........."im hating on people"
Hey guys, not entirely Vibrant related, but due to the overwhelming support you guys showed with bringing down Skriller, I thought you may all enjoy listening to this radio show I did tonight.
http://goo.gl/kDfSD
Synopsis:
Use legit markets
Support your developers/community
Pay notice to app permissions
Skriller $ucks
Pay for paid apps
So what happen to skiller?

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.
I'm pretty upset that megaupload was shut down by the feds. I had a very important rom uploaded on there and now I can not access it. Rom devs if you have used this site to upload your rom(s) to, your pretty much screwed:

Yes this is total BS. It just proves that the powes that be aren't interested in following the same guidelines they set forth for others. This particular action isn't just an infringement of rights, it's a clear abuse of power. They have no interest in fair and just. This is a clear indicator that if we let them continue down this path, one day we shall all be asking for permission to use our once freedom of speech. They hide their attack of our rights by saying that certain individuals were pirating. But in reality it's the same as confiscating your home, and every house in your neighborhood. Because a person three blocks over might be stealing cable. In essence it is downright ludacris.

The FBI site didn't even go down, basically, they're not as amazing as they thought. In a way I want to see them prevail but it's inhumanly possible, I can only imagine that they'll eventually be found and arrested, sparking conversy and if anything that'll light the fire for the fight against these bills, and overall a new outlook on human rights.
Might prove me wrong though

They were shut down but they(the gov) got it up and running shortly after
Yup, the whole reason they attacked megaupload was because of all the sites like this one protesting against SOPA. Hello even google protested against it. It just goes to show how much of a bully our government can be when people speak their minds. It's like them saying "you don't have rights to free speech or to decide what we the fed government do" or "we make the laws not you the people".

Sending an attack directly to fbi.gov is really dumb and childish. It's also a great way to get caught. I'm pretty sure they'll get traced back pretty quickly.

Yeah but the problem is most of them are located in other countries hiding behind proxies. And a lot of isp's don't want to co-operate, and tech they don't have to if they are in certain countries. That's why they call themselves anonymous because it's really hard to find them. Trust me they've gotten smarter since the last time people got arrested. I've done my research on it.

Am I the only one that's hacked off that this forum has a picture of a Galaxy Note GT-N7000 phone on the forum header and not a Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet?
Despite complaining directly to all the moderators on this forum and the webmaster, and getting no reply whatsoever after a couple of weeks, the image still remains.
XDA Developer forums set their standards high and draw people in to how professional and accurate it's pages are. Yet here we have a pretty bad example of sloppy web page construction.
If anyone influential is reading this please can they let the right people know and get it fixed. It's embarrassing!

Actually I think you would care.. And it does have everything to do with the content of the forum.
I don't think it's trivial, else why is there a picture (and device specifications) on the header in the first place if someone didn't think it would be useful?
Developers spend a long time getting the 'little things' just right and paying attention to detail so the 'little things' that annoy people can be corrected. So sometimes 'sweating the small stuff' is what makes something perfect.
Call me pedantic but I don't think it sits well with what is normally a well organised website.
Well I find it strange , a wrong picture. I will try to get it corrected , will ask mod, maybe I'm more succesfull.
It is Holiday time so maybe they all are partying.
EDIT:
I contacted mod, so now it is up to them.
Maybe they can use this picture:
It's sloppy and unprofessional. Over on the Android Central forums the Note 8 sub-forum is under Samsung phones instead of tablets.

Okay, let me rephrase it. I KNOW I wouldn't care. As for the "why," the picture idea has been around a LONG time...back when there were far fewer devices. I'm sure managing this site is not an easy task and updating pictures is about as low as possible on the priority list.
Here is an idea. For all those hung up on this stupid topic, go start you're own forum and set it up like you want it with the pictures, topics, and whatever else you want. Fund it yourselves and spend your free time managing it. Otherwise STFU and realize this is NOT your site, you do not pay for it, and you have no right to complain about it as if you're "entitled" to anything provided to you on here...for free. Oh, and no, freedom of speech does NOT apply here. You're a guest on XDA's property. You can politely ask for them to do something, but demanding it, insulting them about it (e.g. calling them unprofessional, etc) is way fvcking out of line. Now grow up and move on.

Whoa! That's one totally rude reply.
I never demanded anything. I did politely contact the right people, I am a polite person (unlike you). I did not say they were unprofessional, I said it was not in keeping with the USUAL professional standards, thereby indicating that XDA Developers IS very professional. I certainly do not resort to the level of insult and disrespect you are showing. I have been a guest here since 2005. You are also a guest and have no right to tell me to shut up or decide what I topic I can post.
I simply started this topic to ask if it could be changed. I did not expect it to become a place to abuse. May I suggest this topic is now closed, now that someone sensible here has helped out in trying to get the header changed.

Yea right fbi...
Surely there is a file that has all passwords stored or something
Nope, no such file exists. There is nothing stored on-device. If you want to do a keylogger or something you would have to access her computer & install a spyware application surreptitiously. Nothing on android is really designed to reveal secrets, although there are plenty of apps designed to keep secrets secret.
All joking aside...
From a female perspective, if I may, sounds like you two have some serious trust issues, and I seriously doubt hacking her facebook will resolve those. If you don't trust her & she doesn't trust you, why don't you just break up and move on? Sounds like you're looking for a reason to fight (dirt).Invading her privacy is a douchebag move. If you really wanna piss her off, or start a fight, or you don't trust her then leave. No sense in all the spying, prying mess. If I got to a point where I didn't trust my partner enough that I felt compelled to snoop their accounts, or they didn't trust me enough to be completely honest with me, then I'd move on with someone I do trust completely. But that is just my humble opinion.

Well I know aboutkeyloggers for pc too bad I didn't install something before I gave her the tablet...It would be kind of weird for her to see: Keylogger successfully installed in the notifications
Well I totally agree with you, it's all about trust...
We broke up, and kind of got along now, and maybe we can get back together....but I don't know if i'm friendzoned... I just wanna know: Is there a guy that is more important then me....so I can move one...She says we are only friends...but that's what she said last year Maybe she is into me, but then again...i heard the opposite...
Fair enough, I hope you two get it all figured out, without resorting to Spyware. Good luck!
