I have a promo code that will let just over a thousand people get beta 2 right away. To release this code I need at least 50 responses and if this leeks out of this forum this will be the last inside inside information I release. This is for titan users only. Thanks and good luck.
A Skyfire beta code leaked out of this forum? nah. never!!!
No offense but the codes have been being leaked for the past 2 weeks....lol
None taken
But I guarantee I know about things that you have only dreamed of. Mr. Senor Member.
Are the codes that special? I logged into Skyfire and it was right on the front page, with no restrictions or anything. Kind of easy to guess too.
Info
Skyfire, which has the best avaible mobile rendering on the planet will be obselete very very soon. No, there is nothing special about this code I just wanted as many titan users to be able and enjoy skyfire while it is here.

That was out last week. lol! On PPCGeeks at that.
Well for all I can see the build is v .0.61.0.4721
Nothing special at all...
Unfortunately yes
These particular set of promo codes I recieved are in spirit of phelps' win in the olympics. Sorry everybody else is what skyfire seems to be relaying. There are promo codes out there for canada I will start a thread when I get them if I don't get shot by Flyer first.
I see all of you viewing this page
Could you please be sports and tell me if you have skyfire, I'm looking for a count people. Leave me your feedback.
More specific
I apologize I didn't specify only beta 2 users please.
honestly, what is your point? there's a thread over at ppcgeeks with several beta codes. and your 'special' code was sent out on a blog on their website. its still there. in fact, here's a link. and that code only goes til the 30th or something.
SkyFire
All the problems people go through to try and steal or not log onto someones web site. Skyfire is a free and very very good browser. I Use it all the time now. And instead of telling people how to not go about the right way to get a free browser is just stuipd on your part. Log On it's free and enjoy it. I read this web site a lot. And can't understand why if something is free. Go to all the problems of trying to lead others to issues that you can't support. I SAY JUST LOG ON AND DOWNLOAD IT. ENJOY
The code I see is phelps8
Probably the same access.
Everyone have a case of the Mondays?
My aim is for not everyone to get all offensive and up tight or to misjudge this post I was looking for a finatical response and I recieved one. I apologize for hurting everyone's feelings with the exception of flyer. I am in the process of developement and I am conducting a study. So, for those who would like a free skyfire download use the promo code. For those that have skyfire beta 2, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, just tell me if you are currently running it and maybe how often you use it. And if you are neither, feel free to leave me a message I will chat with you this evening when I get done preparing for trial tomorrow.

So before someone else flames, this is really not the place for a survey. that belongs in the off-topic forum. if you go to the skyfire forums, there is a large part of that forum dedicated to feedback about the program.
I know alot of people are upset over having to wait on S-off, while watching other phones, like the newly released Nexus get unlocked fairly quickly.
Have you checked over at the Galaxy Nexus forums? One could easily get jealous that they already have the ability to flash undervolted kernels, new streamlined roms, radios, etc.
I consider the HTC Rezound cream of the crop, and would love to tweak it out before Christmas.
Well, I say we as a whole contact HTC and Verizon and let them know we are displeased with the current locking of our Rezound. I can understand the reason for locking, but what about other devices on the network? The Galaxy Nexus has been unlocked and rooted without any sort of hassle. This is causing those that are impatient to jump the HTC Rezound ship and head over to the nexus.
Those that havent jumped, are probably contemplating, that is including some devs i'm sure.
Earlier this year, Peter Chou, CEO of HTC states on Facebook and Twitter that they will no longer be locking the bootloaders on their 2011 and newer devices, yet somehow this was not the case for the Rezound.
If you would like to, contact Verizon and HTC and voice your opinion. While it may be futile, not voicing yourself surely wont help Maybe they will get tired of our complaints, and do something about it. HTC has to of felt a little burn with people going over to the Nexus already, so maybe they would love to keep that from happening more.

HTC's Main Facebook Page on unlocking its 2011+ phones.
HTC's Facebook page about no longer locking bootloaders
For those that don't know, Verizon do have support forums, and here is a complaint topic regarding the HTC Rezound's locked bootloader, so voice yourself there too (please stay faithful to XDA, my intent is not to have you move to a different forum).

If you do anything, whether its contact them via twiiter, Facebook wall, email, remember to be courteous and respectful. Let them know you are a unhappy consumer that loves the phone, but not in love with their locking it down like it is, and against what they promised earlier this year.
As a whole, we might get heard, and who knows, maybe Christmas will come early I'm aware that once I bought the HTC Rezound, that I was taking a gamble on how soon if at all S-off would come. It is my second smartphone, following my HTC Incredible, and with all the choices out there, I still come back to HTC.

XDA Member Serinety has reinstated their petition. Rather than me start one up, please refer to their thread to sign the petition, and still use this thread to contact Verizon, HTC, and Google to get them to give us some Bootloader freedom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20512114#post20512114
Petition update: Serinety's petition has been growing. Ive posted on a few forums other than ours. The petition is at over 100 signatures.
If you belong to any other android forums that would be a good place for this post, please let me know.
Also, if you know of any sites that we can get to help us publicize this petition and info, feel free to contact me.
I have even considered starting up a website regarding this, and calling it something like unlockmyrezound.com or something similiar. Let me know your thoughts!
Note: I'll add contact info as I find / get them. If you have information that you feel would help out this thread, please let me know.
Thanks for this post. I posted to the Facebook link you shared.
I'm in! I posted on HTC's Facebook wall last week and was told that it was up to Verizon, but that it was coming... Time to contact the rest!

I have posted to the HTCUSA Facebook wall twice, each time receiving a polite "we feel your pain but that doesn't mean we're going to do anything about it" type response.
I am trying to be optimistic, thinking they'll unlock things after the ICS upgrade to which they're already committed.
For now, I enjoy temproot, and the Nexus does not appeal to me at all. I feel like we've got the best product out there, and that's good enough for me now.

I just posted my rant, but I was respectable (I think).
Agreed

I also feel that this is the best product out there right now.
I see you are also coming from the incredible. I still miss playing around with new roms like MIUI and CM7, undervolted kernels from Chat and Tiny, etc I have my deactivated Incredible on my desk (with a mod to turn off the radio but leave wifi on) and I still find that I play with it from time to time.
Temproot has made the wait less painful, and its been nice not having to worry about flashing new roms all the time. But my vacation from the flashing is over, i'm all ready to start again.
I've been pounding their phones, Facebooks and email for days now, my most recent post on HTC USA's Facebook was this morning, and in a bit more of an angry tone than the others. I said I was taking my Rezounds back, which I'm really not doing, because they went back on their word. I'm still sending emails out to people, and I just sent out an email to the CEO of Verizon....we'll see where this gets us.
Thanks

I like your enthisiasm. I read a post over on another forum where HTC said the reason they locked the phone was because of Google's request. I have no idea how valid that post was though, since it was the first i've heard of such a reason.
I hope more like you continue to contact Verizon and HTC.
Moved
Looks like this thread was moved from Development to General.
If anyone has any new email addresses or contact info regarding this s-off thread, feel free to let me know and I'll add it to the OP.
Thanks.
This a good productive post. Nice work

I also posted in htc Facebook page last week. hopefully the pain will end soon

When are we going to see s-off on the Rezound? You guys are losing valuable customers and developers to the lesser Nexus due to not being able to unlock it. Loosing those developers is going to cost you more customers the longer you wait. No one is patient these days.

Yea I would think that they soon have to see the numbers of returns yesterday for people trading in their Rezounds to go to the Nexus. It's unfortunate, because I really don't know if there enough people who do what we do to make them change their stance. They may just view us as a drop in the bucket, but the more noise we make, the better our odds. BTW, I think it's also important to post on Verizon's FB and emails as well, not just HTC.
I started an online petition a few weeks ago but pulled it due to no interest. Lemme know and I will reactivate it

It is Verizon locking down the phone if I recall correctly.
I posted on their facebook today about switching to the GNex because of the unlocked bootloader. Said i didn't understand why they were going to let verizon bully them around but let samsung bring out a device with such an easily unlocked bootloader...
I really like HTC's hardware, I just really hate sense. I want vanilla android...Since HTC won't sell me a rezound with stock GB or ICS, i have to have an unlocked bootloader to get it.
From VZW Support
I can't speak to how HTC phones are supposed to be configured, only how VZW phones are configured. Our phones are set up with software protocols that protect the operating system. Unlocking features expose the device to risk.
When I mentioned the Nexus being unlocked, there was no further response from them.
First the usual disclaimer, i searched and did not find an answer.
Now, I don't know if i'm doing something wrong but some links I get in my email or on some forums will not redirect properly. Specifically, ebay daily deal, newegg and some links on slickdeals do not load. Is it a setting? I've been just living with it but I would really like some help. I am on stock rom, rooted, and have tried every browser to no avail. It's either an android issue or a setting because my touchpad on cm9 is the same. Clicking on the link gets webpage not available.
Just so there is no question about the links they work on my pc and ipad.
Any ideas?

Have you ever tried flashing ROMS to see if that could fix things? If you would like to... let me know and I can help.
Sent from my ATRIX using the Premium XDA App
I have not tried flashing a ROM on my Atrix but strangely enough I have the same issue with my Touchpad on CM7 and CM9. Not sure if you or anyone else gets the ebay daily deals email but I would love for someone to check and see if they can open the links. I can forward the email is someone wants, just PM your email address. I also have today's newegg deal which opens on the ipad but not on any android device I have.
By the way Voelker45, thanks for trying to help. I have been thinking about flashing my phone but held off while under warranty. Now that the warranty is up I could do it with guidance from someone like yourself. I would really like to know if I'm doing something wrong that the links don't work currently.
Does anyone have any ideas? I just tested today's ebay daily deal email. Tried it on wifi and mobile data. Tried it in stock browser and opera. Nothing works. Can someone at least tell me they get ebay daily deals and can launch them just fine.
Thanks

There are other browsers too. Like dolphin HD or Firefox. What about flashing ROMS. If you want to start doing that, give me the ok and I will recommend some links to read once you tell me which carrier, and firmware your on.

Voelker45 , I want to thank you for taking the time to try and diagnose my issue. I did some very extensive searching today. I determined that ebay was using and ad company to handle it's links and redirect to its site. The ad company's address is "links.p0.com". Did some searching on that and found that people reported having issues in Windows also with links from other places (not ebay) and isolated it to their host files blocking the site. Then did some searching on android host files and that's when it stuck out in black and white to me. One find in my search mentioned "adfree" and I realized I'm running adfree. So another search came up with the location of the host files for adfree. The file was too big to edit through root explorer so I emailed it to myself, removed the website and emailed it back. FINALLY, it's working. Makes sense when I think about it now but it just never occurred to me. Now on to figuring out what newegg is using and unblock that. Thank you again friend. Even though you didn't give me the solution you did engage me allowing me to get my mind churning.
Who knows this might benefit someone else.
Hey no prob. Glad I got those wheels churning. good stuff you found in the last post there. I learned something there.

My tablet was doing this to me too. I couldn't figure out why my links weren't redirecting me to the site after I clicked on them. I'm glad you posted this.
Hi,
I recently met someone online who was a romantic type of encounter but the more we spoke the more creeped out I got by the things hes seemed to know about me.
I finally came to the conclusion the things he said to me were extremely huge red flags, there was no way it was a coincidence anymore, and he knew FAR too much about things personal to me such as separate email accounts, and fake birthdates I use as only the last straw before I concluded to reset my device.
Code:
Alcatel
One Touch
Fierce 2
Kitkat
Thats the device I have. We 1st spoke on Kik and he sent me 2 pictures. One was of him that would not open an image. I tried to open it several times but it was just a blank picture.
The second I was able to view and download.
Does anyone know if this is possible to become infected by those means alone?
Otherwise it is possible he made a fake account and infected me with a link that did not work, but I was always under the impression that it was not possible to become infected by Rat or Keylogger with out installation. I was told in a recent thread I could become infected with opening a false link(???).
Im pretty much 100% sure I was infected. I hard reset my phone, but not the SD card yet. I believe the virus is gone, but I feel very creeped out this happen and do not see this going anywhere further but I would like to know if it is even possible. Theres no way Im being paranoid, but I do get a little over worried sometimes, unfortunately I think this was one of the genuine times.
How is it possible if someone did? Anybody have a link to a good article I could learn more? Thanks. PLEASE FORWARD TO ANYONE WHO MAY HAVE ANY ADVICE AT ALL WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED
Most likely he (or she) learned information about you some other way.
You might be surprised what people can learn from the "right" Google searches using some known info like email and city.
If a password on some account can be guessed, that can provide a flood of info, like reading every email or forum posts.
Most infections are from Android apps installed outside of Google Play. Image file viruses are theoretically possible, but I don't recall hearing of any such thing lately.

Dear all,
I am trying to reach the forum of cyanogenemod for 3 weeks now.
The site is not responding to me. Do not know why.
I used a VPN in USA, France, Germany and the problem is the same.
I tested the site on sites like DNScheck and others and it comes with errors.
After testing a ping it seems that the IP is 216.168.38.170 however, even that i cannot browse it...
Please could you inform their team or something like that. It only happens for this site. I am pretty sure that they have DNS issues. (or got flagged on DNS servers).
Please keep me informed.
Thanks for your time.
They've shut down.

WTF???? I cant believe that....
I am using CM for years. Love it.
Why did they close and not ask money to the community?
Not really closed but moved to other things. I call this closing.
Bad, Bad, Bad...
And if it is money, could not they get help from Google or OnePlus?
I am sad now.
