well that SUCKS!!!!
I guess we shall be hosting our own then, the FTP may be gone but we can get around that surely!? (possibly a nice breach of T&Cs there....but dammit!!)
ok,
what we need now is to host all the ROMS on rapidshare ASAP.
Does anyone have an unlimited account on there?
what i can say is everyone start getting your hands on all roms from the ftp you can and ill have a server setup in a few weeks that can host 1TB with a 100MB connection.... so everyone start downloading...

GO GO GO!
i cant believe M$. Just shows how large this site is getting if it attracts such attention
downloading
okay, I think my next phone will be a Nokia again.
Hate the lack of support from HTC and M$ now makes it even worse.
Never had problems with Nokia and the official 1.18 rom just sucks..........
I wouldnt quit on the HTC front JUST yet, its just the ftp that is affected by this remember. We will sort something out
This is INDEED a SAD SAD DAY ! taking a deeeeep breath !
Gawd damn, stop d/lling, you're killing the forum
Anyway, Im not shocked that MS asked that, just dissapointed.
But Im sure this won't be the end of days. Since there are already good How to -guides available in the forum and the operators/manufacturers still provide ROM updates, so what we could do, is to create links to manufacturers/operator released ROMs.
Then with good guides we can do ROM upgrading/tweaking and stuff like before.
See my sig
I guess we are slowing this forum down BIG TIME!
Im surprised there isnt alot of threads about this in the other devices forums?!?!
Well, i think the M$ was very stupid doing that. The first and most important is that a community like Xda-Developers only do something good for them: marketing, development and support their mistakes!
Well, that was not the first stupid thing that came from M$...
You know I really liked my P900 back in the day..
The Sony really took a beating and lasted a long time.. The SE website wasn't too bad either..
If they came out with something better more along the lines I would have no problem Dumping M$ for all there $hit they pull..
This is a DEVELOPER Forum..
How are people going to DEVELOPE and Test if they do not have the resorces..
Anyway it won't stop anything.. the files will just be hosted elseware..
Anyone with google will be able to find them...
All this does is gives us another reason to hate them..

The FTP content for Hermes (EVERYTHING), including the Uploaded folder is now on my home fileserver too.
I have the whole hermes site up and tuning on p2p.
why not go bittorrent sevrer? great for deniability.
no... easier than that;
an IRC bot that people have to issue a command to; when they do so, their IP is added to an access list and they can login to an FTP server; after each file download they must reauthenticate with the bot.
this means access is no longer public and somewhat more "underground" although instructions on how to access it is easily available; this is precisely how the Xbox distribution service Xbins works (note that Xbins do not distribute "warez" only modification tools and hacks for the Xbox)

I agree there should still be a centralised way for us to access ROMs, just so frustrating since we have ALL paid for the devices, which in the process pays M$ for the WM we get, we are the best source for them to get bug reports and in field tests carried out on the software. Its not illegal (as in piracy, stealing software) but this software is readily available to people who look hard enough!! (from the operators!).
If it wasnt for this site ALOT of people would have abandoned the WM platform (i know i would have if i had to stick with the ORIGINAL ROM i had on my HTC TyTN!).
My opinion is a torrent would be the best option for us. If i knew how to set one up id have one running for the content the Hermes uses.

Hi Guys
When will we see the wm5 rom up again. I have requested from few guys here for the wm2k5_106a. Rob Pennington denied me and even doubted me afraid that I'm someone tracking him.
I looked around ftp search engines and torrents to no vail. P2P too slow and two days I've got only 50kb.One guy care to send me but it was corrupted. I itched to test the latest wm5.
Anybody can do the favour of sending it to me personally? Very much appreciated.
all 2k5 versions and other software written by me, themes by xda2jojo, registry and bootloaders stuff by toenailed will be very soon (monday ?) available on http://buzzdev.net

In fact I'm back to WM2K3 SE since the 'best thing' in the forum got shutdown.
I miss the Friday upgrade announcements, the download from the FTP & the weekend resets on my device. Hope the FUN begins again & soon.
Keep up the good work Buzz, Toe & Jojo & let us know how we can be of any help if needed! :wink:

edit.... maybe i should try stuff before i post. i dont need to get band.
sorry
I'm running 1.7.0 so let me re-flash. I just downloaded it and am willing to try. let you know tonight!
The older version did not work at all because the mogul lacks a working direct3d driver, and that seems to be what this program uses to render the maps. Considering this problem affected a large number of HTC devices, hopefully the fixed the problem by using another display method.. Will try...
*edit*
Yes! From the author's website:
-Add Qualcomm CPU device support
-More stable by using new 3D engin which do not need Microsoft direct3d mobile support
-Fix the start GPS bug in some device
Have not tried yet but it looks like it will work.
I keep getting a critical error while trying to start the GPS... wants me to install a .net 3 cab to get the message...
Well the software does work on the mogul now...
Lets take this and throw it into the box with opera 9.405. We will label this box "SOFTWARE MOGUL USERS CANNOT ENJOY BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH RAM".
This program will gradually suck every drop of RAM then crash within two to three minutes of just browsing the map.
Working fine for me. Using the new stock rom. Very fast.
Thanks
It did load pretty fast with the new offical Sprint Rom for me.
Hmmm... Whats with the crack. This looks like warez....
Well...with 3.27 radio and 6.1 wm the program runs...locks onto GPS and crashes the program after a couple of zooms with OutOfMemoryException for me.
This looks like a cracked version of a comercial application located here: Google Navigator I don't think it is alowed here. You can go to this website and download free version which works but has some limitation. If you like it, buy it and remove the limits.
Also, please read this on front page!
This is a great community, so let's keep it clean.

I didn't flag the post or was rude, just stated the obvious. This is absolutely a cracked application and there are plenty of places on the net where it is allowed and tolerated; so it shoul be taken there. I recently joined this forum and I like it very much. So just wanted to ask to keep the garbage away.
I didn't realize that it was a crack before I downloaded it, but I have not used the crack. I do intend to purchase if it works well. Its a heck of a lot cheaper than Tomtom.

That is basically what is happening to me. Do you think it is a problem with the 3.27 radio; possibly a memory leak due to an incompatibility? Those of you who are trying it with the official GPS ROM (I will not update until dcd has a release that works with the new radio) are you running out of memory too?
i didn't know it was a crack. like i said in the original post... i downgraded to a stock sprint rom so 3.65 rom update would be faster.
i never tried it. just posted it cause i thought i was a good find.
MODS (and members) please forgive me.

btw, did i use any profanity towards you
i side with taylor, most of the work done here is stealing or borrowing from the work of others, to ask one person to stop but not all the others is absurd.
I do really think it is common courtesy to ask the chef if it is ok, They have put alot of time and effort into creating these ROM's and being this is a community, the proper thing to do is ask!

What exactly did we steal, moron ?
Our hard work into customizing these ROMs ? No.
My custom graphics and icons, created BY HAND, BY ME ? No.
The core OS and some HTC OEMs... Yes, I guess we stole those.. but WAIT.. that **** was already on my phone, so I guess I stole from myself.
Moron!
p.s. If you can't already tell, I'm not okay with someone just taking my stuff without asking first. Everything (and I do mean EVERYTHING) I cook with is freely available on this forum if you search for it. The only thing I do is put it all together. And THAT's where the skill comes into play... and I don't appreciate THAT being stolen.
I don't know about this. I'm glad someone posted oems that I wanted. But not glad that you've posted the chef's work. I think you may be asked to remove things that the chefs have done themselves, such as NRGZ28's welcomeheads and graphics and icons and Aruppenthal's icons and graphics.
I've gotta jump in here. When a "chef" dumps the ROM from their device, is that not "stealing" from microsoft or HTC? There are people sitting at a computer coding all the software that work for these companies and putting in their hard work too. Did you ask them if it's OK to take their work, change it all up, then release it for free to the public? I think not.
That being said, I hardly think it is justified for ANYONE on this forum to release a customized ROM **(it's not THEIR ROM... In order for it to be YOUR ROM, YOU must hand write EVERYTHING from scratch, thus creating your own operating system)** to mandate to anyone that they must ask for permission to alter/relase anyones work.
Look at it this way - at least he mentioned whos ROM he dumpped! Many of the chefs here could take someone elses customized ROM, change it a little here and there, release it and call it their own.
QUOTE: rzanology "there can be no honor amungst theives"
I cannot agree more. Think of it this way. I break into a car and steal it. while I'm at the local stop-n-rob, someone hops in the car and steals it from me... I can't exactly report it stolen because I did not legally obtain it.
Make sense?
p.s. NGR, sorry to say but your argument is null and void.
"My custom graphics and icons, created BY HAND, BY ME ? No." - Were the original graphics not created by someone? You took THEIR work and altered/deleted it.
"The core OS and some HTC OEMs... Yes, I guess we stole those.. but WAIT.. that **** was already on my phone, so I guess I stole from myself." - I have a problem with this one too. Basically you are stating that once you buy something, you alone own every right to it. What's this RIAA thing... y'know, buying CD's and sharing them for FREE. Hmmmm. sounds kinda familiar wouldn't you agree? Oh posh, legalities.
Educate yourself.
i tried to avoid this. thread will now be locked. i hope to hear nothing more about this. have a great weekend folks.

Hope to see some WP7 ROMs on these devices soon!
Edit: I just noticed your provisioning files, did you actually dump the ROM? Would you mind sharing the dump?
that was a "leaked" ROM "leaked" meaning it went to 2-3 people.
I was not going to leak that, in fear of having someone loose there job.
I am going to work on getting it dump here before to long.
I have a list of issues that I have with it right now. I will keep track for about a week, and then I will write a review or something to see what I have found out.
Okay, yes I completely understand why you can't share it now.
I hope you will find out more about the ROM, hopefully you'll be able to dump it correctly.

WARNING I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU DO ANYTHING TO YOUR DEVICE BY DOING ANY OF THESE CODES
Well few things. now that is said.
U+S+B+ Power = Recovery Mode
S + L + Power = Secure Bootloader
C + B + Power = Hard Reset
From the phone screen, enter ##77647266488 then press Call
This is the programming screen, you can manually program using this code.
The firmware is a different mess.
It seems we are not able to dump a ROM from device, at least not that I have seen.
Why do you ask, because what Microsoft did is they have different build flags.
-Debug -Beta -Retail -Ship
From inside there, the Ship, has strict settings on it. One of those is that it cant dump the ROM.
So that is where we are at right now. I have a few ideas to try but I am not going to test for a few days.
We shall see though.
So that is what I have figured out so far.
New site is launched today.

A shame to hear that it's so hard to get it dumped, I really hope you'll be able to. I do not own a KIN, but I would love to have the resources for theming purpose.
Nice site, it's really useful to have all information in one place, but I think it's important to keep posting your findings here on xda too as it will help others who don't know about your site.
yes, i will still do that.
it cant hurt to have the info in 2 places. i want the infomation to be out there for people to find.
Nice, thanks.
Doesn't look like there is much interest in this phone. Too bad. I for one would love if it would get hacked. If some would figure out how to get a wifi router app on it I would be so there. Android would be great too but with the screen size and tegra I doubt anything will happen. I wish I had the time or the abilities to work on this phone.

Well it really just vary's from the type of phone you have, Getting the MSL without root is a pain, however once rooted, you are than able to control anything in the phone i.e what's locked and unlocked. Know and understand that the letters ending after the base model numbers determine a big factor, such as G955UF is a unlocked world version of the 7 plus, it doesn't use the USA version of snap dragon. When the port was created and or root process it it was built off a certan type of model, few adjustments may be needed, i suggest checking out Android Studios, it comes with android dev packaging to help you kick start.
Download:
Sampwnd all neccesary files from the thread D
Download both odins
and download ADB and fast boot.
I will say this, with odin once you put the 4 files in, you need to boot into download moad, once you see the blue screen pop up then plug in your phone and if your mac you type ADB if your windows its ./ADB youll know if it connected or not.
It's pretty simple, I just think alot of people get stuck, so I am willing to hel.

Firstly, congratulations on root.
Give "MSL Code Finder" a search within the play store, root only apps are generally a good area to search within, I couldn't throw a name on one, as my time with development on the G955U is pretty much over, i'm on to some other brands to provide more attention to. However should you need any further assistance, i can use teamviewer to connect and help you out.

I am interested in rooting my first Android phone after switching from an iPhone for almost ten years, aside from a Note 3 that I had for a few months. I have the S8+ and am pretty technically inclined, although I had a Note 3, I bricked it during my learning experience. I just don't trust myself to do it correctly at this point, I absolutely need to be able to use the app "Amazon Flex" and I am told there is way to hide the root, even though they use a certain method but I am understanding have been told that there are other options available for me to hide the root from this app. If you are willing to help me, I am willing to learn. I appreciate your time and look forward your response. I have the SM-G955U

I also have that smg955u. Is that Sprint network you're on
Hey watch out for this guy, everyone. He lives in my hometown and he's really shady. He'll hop on TeamViewer and rummage through your devices and networks.
He sold me a phone with an unpaid balance and told me he could unlock it quickly through TeamViewer. After 3 days (about 12 total hours spent) spent, I eventually told him no thanks. He got very offended and started acting weird.. Even told me he had hacked my network through my television? Haha, anyway, be careful with this guy.
PS. Just in case he's moved to a different name, he uses a strange syntax in his sentences.. There's just something off about it. Its how I was able to recognize him on here.
PPS. I have his name and location if anyone else has been burnt by this guy.

I have no idea what he is talking about nor have I even spoke to him on here. Requesting a removal, and moved to a different section should he want to escalate. This is or was a free service that i DO in my free time to help people.
