I've been trying to come up with a way to give back to XDA, and here is what I've got on offer.
For helpful XDA users who meet the following criteria:
1. XDA Account more than 1 year old.
2. 1000+ posts
3. 150+ thanked
I will happily issue a FunkyHuawei credit for free. Send me a PM on XDA with your email address you used onand I will put it on your account if you meet the criteria. So I can keep track of it, make the subject of your message 'FunkyHuawei Credit Request'
In return, I ask that you (optionally) document your usage of FunkyHuawei, and how it worked for you, and let me know. All feedback is very welcome.
Take note that I don't recommend trying to rebrand with one credit, because you generally will need to flash the phone at least two times. However, it should work just fine for a system update.
I especially hope there are people with phones other than the Mate 9/Pro who can try it and see how it works, as I don't have older testing devices. But you're free to use it on whatever phone you want, of course.
Note, I am posting this under Section 11 of the XDA rules, specifically:
Do not post press releases, announcements, links to trial software or commercial services, unless you’re posting an exclusive release for XDA-Developers.com.

I'll continue giving out free credits until I've gotten tired of it. When I stop, I'll post here.

Is it an unlimited requests or just one credit per member?

It's one credit for the service... so one firmware flash.

So since I dont see any other threads on this here on xda... I'm guessing we wont be seeing Blackhole 4.0 released to everyone here on xda anymore?
Blue Super Froyo
He said on androiddoes that it will be released via ROM Manager to the public at 430pm today. The thread you mention was closed because at the time the ROM was released only to VIP subscribers of androiddoes
Ok, good to know, I hadnt seen that...
Blue Super Froyo
Will that thread be reopened once it is publicly available is what I want to know.
Have any of his other rom threads been shut down?
Not that this forum is moderated by committee or democracy but I am not a fan of locking that thread.

They locked it because you cam not advertise in xda nor tell people to join another forum and pay to download. He will open another thread when it gets released

I got my self a RIFF box and I just finished fixing a friend's HTC HD2, and I thought it was quite simple.
I've seen many users here posting about bricked HTC HD2.
If you're interested please PM me.
PS. I'm posting here because I want to know if it's worth it actually posting an ebay ad.

that's not something he can fix, sounds like you need a new mainboard.
yes you should put a add on ebay. i bricked my phone twice and i have to send it to texas twice so if you can do all phones it would be a good thing for some one in this country to unbrick phones. i no phone shops are not doing it, even small repair shops.
Hi All,
I was surfing net and found lots of legit sites providing pay per download's.
What came to my mind is that we ask ROM developers to upload on these sites.
we normal users anyways download from where ever they upload.
in this process there is no change however we will be contributing to some extend to them.
specailly usefull for those of us who don't have the luxury to donate through paypal.
Need your opinion.
Mod : please delete thread if it voilates any forum rule. (Please infrom me the same in case its not a burden to you.)
Thats a really cool idea .
I mean I'm sure most of the people taking time out of their own lives to develope these roms (not for profit but because its a hobby they enjoy doing) could also help out many aspects of other peoples lives who may have never even owned a mobile phone (ie, donate the money to a charity of their choosing).
I'm sure that with the amount of dl's a single rom gets could really benefit people.

So you are telling that Developers are uploading their ROM to a website that wants a CORRECT survey before you can download the file? That really sucks, you'll get into trouble with some of those surveys. Also, why make money with file upload websites if you can donate to a developer.
I say no.
what a lame idea the reason why Xda is better because its devs don't push people to download something for money! if the user likes the devs work they donate to the dev infact these sites have waiting time and lame ads all around the page which may change the mind of someone who wants to donate.
Mediafire is always the best file hosting site!
I understand the point you all are trying to make.
however my point was simply in the event many people don't have the liberty or capacity to donate.
neither can they contribute with much to the community.
so just thought to take opinion of the community....
Looks like i might have hurt some of the basic fundamental values of XDA... in that case i am sorry.....
and Note: this is in no way a instruction, its just some thoughts of my own.

so i dont think survey taking would be allowed
Thanks for the clarification please delete the thread or atleast lock it as i suppose it will be a clear voilation of XDA policies.

I was trying to find the thread and for some reason, it might bave been deleted. What gives? I figure it might be because of that stupid rom that is asking for profit?
There was plenty of good information in that thread especially for us users of the dual sim note3. I wish it could be restored, and just the crap paid rom deleted...
Might have been archived, use the thread in the general section of XDA to ask a staff member.

I have got this message from mod:
Discussing for pay roms is not allowed, especially when it involves malware. Thread has been removed.
I have already ask him why because I do not understand. I have written instal guide to SVA 3.5 (cause I have it) but it was also for 2.0 which is free. If it is against rules, then OK, he can delete 2 or 3 posts and say, stop talk about it. And not to delete complete thread with usefull infos.
And if it has malware, then he should tell us more about it.
Censorship is very bad thing!
Is it no fair deleted this thread... it was one of the most usefull ones.
Please delete posts about paid ROM and restore this thread.
I was also disappointed not finding the 40+ page thread about the N9002 today. I was specifically looking for the fix to the following:
Others.xml fix for caller ID issue (I have since found it elsewhere, and the "-1" parameter value worked for me).
Fix for Google Account randomly signing out (it happened to me first two times I rebooted since loading a new ROM, but hasn't reoccured the rest of today).
Fix the "process com.google.process.gapps has stopped..." error (I've cleared app cache for some google apps, so now under observation).
The N9002 thread was very useful, so I am also hoping that only the SVA related posts should be deleted.
I just upgraded my N9002 to the latest N9002ZNUDMK1 today, loaded CWM recovery, and then a 3rd party ROM. I'm loving the N9002 more and more now.

I did not know about that rom having malwares. Never really liked that SVA. Good thing i stayed away from it. However, its still unfair to delete the whole thread because of it.
Reading through and cleaning a +400 post long thread every few weeks isn't feasible. If you see people discussing something that obviously goes against multiple forum rules then please report them.
By being complacent you're doing nothing but driving off good devs and hurting everyone else who has the device.

Ok, thanks for clarifying. So, can we create a new n9002 thread now or can we just ask this thread renamed to the n9002 thread? I still would want to see people getting directed to the right place when they search n9002 xda forums in google...
N9002 with the SVA ROM 3.1
Thanks for open a new thread :good::good:

sorry, no offence, but you are lying.
You write that the +400 posts long thread is full of posts against rules but at the same time you write that you can not read it and clean it, so how do you know?
We are talking about one post where somebody (not me) has posted direct link to that paid ROM.
Or is SVA forbidden here completely? Also the free ROM?
I have sent you PM, I would be glad if you post the answer here. I dont know if i am alowed to do it myself when you have threatened me with this:
Any further discussions about it, whether in the open or over private message, will be considered spamming and may lead to restrictions on your ability to access the forums.
Maybe I get banned anyway, but for nothin, just for saying politely my opinion and asking questions.
I do not intend to spam, but I hate censorship. And all what you did was without explanation, so it is censorship.
i will not post here any until I get answers from mods here. It seems that its forbidden here at all?!
On the other hand i dont understand you.

Calling someone a liar isn't very "polite". If your goal is to get banned just say so, there's no need for the passive aggressiveness.
As was explained in the private message to you, do not discuss it here. Talking about for-pay ROMs in any way shape or form is not allowed. If you want to advertise them for you can do it from your own website.
Ok, now thats that done. I suggest that this thread be closed and I'll just create a new n9002 thread.
...
Shame. I am one of the many owners of N9002 that had benefited from information in that thread. There were many useful posts in that thread that didn't have anything to do with paid ROM's at all. There were techniques to root, debloat, and put back Google stuff on N9002. Only because there were some guys posted about a paid ROM the entire thread was deleted?
Thread closed on op's request. If there are any further questions please feel free to PM me and I will be happy to answer them.
