Hey some funny guy (atleast he must think he is) killed most of the content.
or did the site owner do this ??
Hey you're right :?
Some files are still there but most directories are empty
Yaa this really sucks ...
well i hope the have backup ...
if not its a chance to sort everything new on the ftp
Hi,
now i cant connect at all.
Will there be no more ftp or what is going to happen?
Hey guys, i'm sorry
Hey guys i'm sorry, this early am, i started trying to mirror the website, I'm not sure if I was the one that caused this, but if I was I have every single file I pulled down, I can re up load it, and fix the site back up... but if this is relating to something else then desregard it, I just wanted to mirror the site, but I guess I missed one of the options (didn't even know we had r/w access) and I started to replace files, I don't know how, why but my "mirror" program wasn't configured prop.
FOR XDA STAFF, IF I WAS THE ONE THAT CAUSED THIS PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP, I WILL BE MORE THEN WILLING TO HELP FIX MY MISTAKE AND SORRY AGAIN GUYS
:? :? :? :? :?
i can be contact directly to my cell phone (please only staff, no bashing i said i'm sorry i'm a human what can I say, i'm just trying to fix things)
[email protected]
Mate, props for owning up, a lot of people would have kept quiet.
(If it was you!)
To site admins:
I know this has been bought up before, but can I ask why the "xda" user doesn't have JUST read-only access to the site and only write access on the Upload directories?
I have absolutely no idea what FTP server you're using/how to configure it specifically and I don't mean to tell you how to run your site (and it's a very fine site too!), but in my opinion we've continually had problems with the FTP and people deleting things (maliciously or in this case accidently) which could really be avoided.
Apologies for any offence caused.

Please disregard, I just read the thread about the legal issues.
I first wish to thank you all for maintaining this site and freely sharing your updates, experience, and knowledge. This site is a God-Send.
I amposting since I have one question, and not sure where the issue lies, Has anyone else experienced problems downloading form the Rapidshare sites? I get an error about exceeding the allowed downloads but I have'nt downloaded yet. I am thinking maybe something in my IE 7 or another security setting?
Any ideas woudl be helpful since I cannot wait to get to WM6.
Thanks,,,,

Well maybe your connected to the internet using a proxy. and as free user u only can download one file every hour. if you are using a proxy, everybody, who's using this proxy too, blocks you. but its just a suggestion from me.
alternate you can restart your router and try again. this is also a trick to download more than one file in an hour, because you get a new ip.
I had the same issues with rapidshare.
But since the FTP was stripped and most new roms are released through it I have paid for a premium subscription.
It works 100%
And if you know where to look there are loads of other cool software available on rapidshare.

This is just a privite beta in US,anyone here for it which can help us?
http://www.skyfire.com/product
Cheers
Not sure I understood you correctly... but are you asking if anyone here wants to participate in the beta?
If so I do!
I want to try it out
But I aint down why they ask for cell#. So ill see what ^
skyfire
I want it!!!! Looks great!!
I've signed up for the beta, but they haven't distributed it to me, yet.
Anyone using it?
I think he means that he does not live in the US and wants to know if anyone can, crack unlock etc.. so he can use it in a foreign country.
Yeah, i think he's just wondering if anyone has it yet, or has a cab for it. I signed up a couple weeks ago, maybe they are just seeing how many people are interested in it.
signed
I signed up for it it looks very good. hopefully they can deliver.
arre can any1 gimme the .cab or .exe! we cant download as i dont live in the US!
cab alone wont work
They validate registered participants of the beta via the phone number. Unfortunately, the Skyfire browser application alone doesn't seem to work. As I understand it the Skyfire application relies on the Skyfire service that sits between the client (Skyfire browser) and the server (the website you're trying to reach). The Skyfire service is simply a proxy that renders the requested website before delivering it to your phone. Hope this helps everyone.
Oh, btw, this is a marvelous forum.
Heads up!!
I just opened xda dev in opera mini and I am logged in as a user called dredd?????
not in the same country as this user!!?
I will log in on a desktop browser (firefox) now so i can see if this post is here!
Ive edited his sig just so i can verify that it is fully logged in as another user,
a severe security lapse by opera, or a known bug????
anybody come accross this before?
how bizarre!..
most odd!
i just logged out and closed opera mini and im still logged in as dredd when i reopened it?
cookies deleted and before i initially opened opera i had just hard reset?

If you are not dredd, what is your username suppose to be???
If you are able to access his account, why are you did you edit his sig and now you are posting from this other person's account? Wouldn't that be against the forum rules as far as gaining access to someone else's account, even if it was just an accident I sure wouldn't be going around posting under his account.

I was posting under his to verifyi actually had access.
dont come all high and mighty an go mentioning rules to me.
I was just warning ppl not abusing this fellows account.
this definately has nothing to do with opera unless you would have downloaded opera or a cooked rom from this forum that may have somehow contained his/her log in information.
the only other way this could have happened is an error with the forum servers
Opera Mini works via proxy servers, so its possible that their servers sent fex dredd's login state. Just another reason why proxy server browsers suck ass.

Consdering millions of people use Opera Mini, the chances of something like this is quite slim, it's possible I'm sure, but rare. Can a mod verifiy to see if he did indeed post via Opera Mini by verifying the IP address?
Hi
I am the REAL .dredd.
I also experienced the false login using opera mini so it happened not to only one member.
In the past few days I have been logged in accidentally under 3-4 members... today I was wondering seeing Ababrekar's notification for me...
fex:
It would have been nicer to give this warning to the forum under your account instead of mine.
still logs me in as dredd if i use opera mini
I've reported this post to the Site admin to have a look at.

Mostly the ip addresses you guys use are the same, if you're using a proxy that could be the problem. If at all possible could you try to eliminate the proxy?

Hi Flar!
The REAL .dredd. is here ))
As I mentioned I also experienced the problem but... in 3 different times I was logged in into 3 different accounts... pls do not ask which ones because I did not care... I only checked the new topics and new devs as always... as if I would have been logged with my own account.
Nevertheless the symptom is strange and should be solved.
I did not touch any settings in my connections and nor in opera mini settings... to tell the truth I do not know how to eliminate proxy in operamini... today morning I logged in without problems with operamini.
The only thing I am angry at is that other user made a forum entry (even a new topic) in the name of mine... abarekar gave me a notification due to this.
Thx
.dredd.
Problem solved:
I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS: You packaged an already synced mini!
The issue happened when I made an update to my rom. I cabbed up the all of the _s0 files after already setting up my mini. syncing it and everything.
It saved my settings.
HOW TO SOLVE:
delete all of the _s0 files and start from scratch. redownload opera mini (signed) and install. fix all of the security things. Take just the newest files ( you can use the explorer on your pc to arange as modified.) copy those for your package.
This version of opera mini has more files. including various skins.
Now the only problem is that you need to get rid of all the versions that have already been uploaded

Cant see why your angry mate I did nothing but inform the mods and site users of the issue.
I could have messed with your account or posted **** under your name which wouldve been fair reason for your anger.

I can see both sides. I also agree that it would tick me off if someone did it to my account. but at the same time i understand if i was on someones account i would do the same thing.
Hey Fex, at this point I do belive the words should enter your stream right now, "I DO understand why you are upset and I never meant to violate your account or sense of community. I understand that my attempt to exemplify the problem and not invalidate your security is at cause. Please understand that my intent was good and that in the future I will notify the community, devs and users from my own account."
Now since the solution has been found and fault can be handed out, the matter of violation of privacy is clearly in the hands of the developer who released the rom with his credentials inside of it.
Your internal fight now Fex is, "Was it ethical to knowingly log in to an account I knew was not mine." Thats all you dude, how would you teach a class full of children to handle the same scenario?
Good find on the problem, great find on the fix, awesome education given to all ROM devs and those who share images and data that touch our own personal data.
a quick fix to this, without deleting or reinstalling your Opera, would be clearing cookies. and for the account "dredd" to be suspended. at least till this thing clears off. This way, all users will not be able to use the "dredd" account, and be forced to relogin again, therefore eliminating the cookies.
my two cents. what you think?
EDIT - Scrub that... it's a known issue.
Hi all,
Anyone else noticed this issue?
Try searching for:
Paypal
Rockon
Google Earth
They're simply not there...
I know how to fix this on a custom rom, but not a clue on a stock rom where we have no access to write to /system.
For the search, it is nice to have this issue clarified for future reference. It will probably cross the minds of many others in the near future.
I have Google Earth ... no PayPal though ...
Still an issue!
But why, you state known issue, any threads on it?
