Latest News
06:30G - Network issue is resolved and VBN Server is back online !
Sep 27 - VBN File Server is facing network issues and DC Techs have been notified. ETA for resolution in 08:00 GMT 09/27
People are ending up with smaller than actual files and corrupt downloads. File Server app has been shutdown to prevent this. However, FTP service is still alive
Aug 27 : All image (png/bmp/jpg/gif) files have been removed from the xda/* repository...I still have backup of all of them...if anybody is missing them or didnt move them, please PM with the filenames and I will move them to your respective "images" folder
On Aug 26 - 10 AM Sing Time ALL image files hosted under xda/* folders will be removed permanently
VBNFILES was started as a free alternative for Chefs to host ROM and related cabs, etc. It is not a free image hosting alternative and such files put lot of connection load on the server software which interrupts smooth functioning and service.
All Chefs are adviced to take backup of their images asap.
Update on Images Cleanup :
A new virtual link (images) has been created under ftp root for each Chef. This is exclusively for image hosting. You can move all your images here using ftp.
For access use, http://178.63.69.46 or http://gallery.vbnfiles.com (domain may appear worldwide active in few hours)
These directories will periodically (every 15 mins) be checked for file extensions and only following are allowed in it : jpg bmp png gif (If you need others, please contact me asap)
As always, any concerns or queries dont hesitate to drop me an email or reply to this thread. Appreciate everyone's support in this matter.
Aug 21 - Emergency Server Move
10 PM Sing Time : New Server is fully operational now and domains also seem pointing correctly.
10 AM Sing Time : In light of the recent downtime and issues with VBNFILES, I decided to move the server to a better DC who care about their customers. This is a notice to all users of VBNFILES for emergency move which has been initiated.
On Current Server :
* FTP is closed
* Write Access via web is closed
Files are being moved over to new server and domains have been propogated which should reflect in next few hours. End-users should not face any downtime, however, there could be intermittent connection issues.
A new notice will be posted as soon as we are up and fully running from new server (Next 12 hours)
July 22 - Maintenance Notification
July 23 : Server is fully operational now. Any issues feel free to send me an email.
Jul 22
VBNFILES will be undergoing maintenance on July 23 during time 01:00GMT thru 11:00GMT

wow, man thats very kind of you!
if possible, how about allowing ftp uploads for chefs? would save you time and it would be self maintaining. what sort of storage limitations you have there?
Gavin
Fantastic!
I am working on the FTP side now... will be ready soon. I'll send you a login via PM.
Also in the works is Remote Upload... i.e. chefs can provide links to Rapidshare, Hotfile and 4Shared and my server will pull the link and make it ready in appropriate folders for download. Once ready it will send an email to the chef saying that its ready. I am working on this automation actively now.
I got no storage limitation (as far file sharing goes ) ... my server is with 1.5TB in Raid1 and almost 80% empty

that is extremely generous of you, i cant believe you would do this! wow
can i ask, since ftp is not me area of expertise, is is possible that the server could generate a MD5 of uploaded files, so we can compare to our originals and ensure we get working files? crc errors are a biatch (especially for those of us with incredible unrelaible net connections).

I think its possible...I am trying to eliminate all the hassles involved in post-production of ROMs so that chefs can breathe easy and do what they do best "COOK"
Looking into this...will update you soon
Btw: I can send SMS also when file is done but it costs money...so I'll keep it for later

Excellent (i have sent you a PM by the way)
COMING SOON FOR CHEFS
1. FTP Logins with no space restrictions
2. Remote Uploads from Rapidshare/Hotfile/4Shared
3. Email/SMS alerting when upload is done
4. Rendering of ROM pictures for each ROM file next to the file link (ROM pictures to be uploaded also by chef)

I know what you mean...just got confused myself reading it again
Anyways, its for later stage. Heres what I was thinking for later :
(1) ROM is uploaded to ftp along with few image files (img_ prefix)
(2) My file download/browsing script (under developement) will show each set of images next to the rom download link
Its mostly cosmetics actually
Also for remote download from other file hosts (RS/Hotfile/4S), I have this in plan :
(1) Simple text file with predefined paramater and formatting like ROM link, destination folder, etc.
(2) Chef uploads this simple text file using ftp
(3) My automation software detects in realtime and starts working on the download. It creates a status webpage in the same dir which can be viewed by the chef to see realtime download status
Please provide me ideas/inputs on the above. We can anyways tweak things whichever once in full flow
Wow! Great Stuff!
Thank you...I am open to FTP login requests...strictly for ROMs and related stuff. Its not a file host !
The folders that are already created in "ROM" ... I have begun creating ftp logins and distributing to the chefs. Its upto them if they want to use it or not. If not, I will help upload stuff and keep it updated as much as I can
I'm very interested in this, and game for a ftp login Wish you all the luck in the world with this, it looks amazing!
Can't wait for the remote upload!

Remote Upload working good at backend in my test lab .... working on frontend now and some debugging
1. File pulls from Rapidshare and Hotfile are running smooth. 4Shared still buggy but I am on it.
Will release implementation this weekend (my office net blocks all sharing sites so cannot work during office hrs )
I will select one of the chefs to whom I have already sent the ftp logins and activate his/her folder for remote pull. After some testing (a couple of days and few files), I will activate on all remaining folders.
2. Statistics for File Downloads (Hits/Downloads/etc) - Still finding a proper solution. Linux is so much simpler but Windows ... aayyiiiaaayyiii
3. SMS for file uploaded/new rom available to end users/etc. is working but switched off by me because of cost constraints. Its cool though (I currently use Clickatell gateway, anyone can recommend a cheaper provider with HTTP/S api for connectivity? )
hey fellow singaporean, could u please host NRG ROMS? they look worthy of testing but damn hotfile won't let me download... alot of people who experince problems with filesharing websites will really appreciate this

[HACK] (25-07-2010) Native SMS over IP v2.0

Hi All,
This is a continuation of this thread. It is now possible to send SMS over IP with VoIP operators that support SMS gateway using SIP messages (mainly betamax companies like 12voip, voipraider, voipbuster, poivy, ...). No special gui is needed, you can just use the regular HTC Messaging.
This involves replacement of the sms.dll system file, so USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK
Installation:
1- Install the attached cab file on the device or the storage card and confirm reset when finished
2- After reset run SMSoIP Config before sending any sms
3- Fill in the parameters as follows:
SIP Server: SIP server address (eg: sip.voipraider.com, sip.smartvoip.com, ...)
Username: <your username>
Password: <your password>
Caller ID: <your phone number verified with your voip provider> This is required for the receiving party to see your number
Country Code: <international tel code of your country> This is required if you have numbers not stored in international format, also to detect if the destination is international or not. (eg: 90 for Turkey, 32 for Belgium, ...) Note: If you have the latest HTC messaging in your rom, you need to use +90 or +32, ...
Option: Choose the behavior you want
Auto Connect: Enable if you want auto data connection. This might result in additional charges with your gsm provider
Enable Debug: Enable debug popups if you have problems
Note: For people who have the latest HTC messaging
v1_8_20161228_00, you need to select CDMA as Sending network in messaging options for some reason
4- Enjoy

Any special instructions for those who UPDATES from old (e.g. 1.7) version ?
Or just install as usual ?

Just uninstall the old one, install the new one, reboot and configure.
Can this be used on 6.5.x roms ?
does it allow an option of sending method ? carrier sms or voipsms ?
Great idea ...
This is posted under "Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General", but the post talks only about HTC messaging. Does this mean that the hack won't work on any other devices, like for example Samsung Omnia?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure I used to use this with a 6.5.x ROM that didn't have Sense nor the HTC Messaging. Either way I think it should be safe to just backup your sms.dll (maybe the program even does this for you, I don't really remember that) and try this. I don't have my Winmo phone to check anymore, sorry.

[FIX] Credo Wireless + Custom ROM = no MMS

This will probably not apply to many members of this forum, but for anyone coming here with an ns4g from CREDO Wireless rather than Sprint I have found a potential problem and its solution with using custom ROMs.
If you install a ROM that changes the MMSC URL you will no longer be able to send MMS. You can find your current URL by using the Data Programming dialer code: *#*#3282#*#* then selecting view -> Others -> MMSC URL.
The fix for this is to use the correct url for CREDO of can't post links ask me and I would be happy to share. To edit the url entry you'll need your MSL number from CREDO. I was able to simply call them up and ask for the number I do not know if I got lucky or if this is their standard policy.
I can now post url's so here it is: http://mms.plspictures.com
