Hi guys
Just had a zip file through from one member which he bought from ebay, when i unzipped it, it turns out that its the unlockers from this site.
Looks like someone is trying to make money out of others work.
thought you'd all like to know.

Just found this site. It's great and thanks. Especiall since I recently needed to unlock a Siemens SX56.
However, before I found the site, I found a schmoe on eBay (Tommy [[email protected]]) who was selling unlock software for $8 US. I bought it. Then I found this site, and realized what he was selling was the XDA Developers Special Edition ROM.
Isn't this totally wrong? Shall I report him to eBay?
Thanks.

So he copied the CDA-developers free software and sold it to you for a price? Some would say he was smart.
That's a matter for the developers of ths software and their license agreement (if they have one).
As with most things in the public domain, he can claim he is charging for the service of distributing the software rather than the software content, he is within his rights to do so.
This whole site is 'grey' at best (depending on where it is hosted of course) , so let's keep the authorities out of of it - OK???
:wink:
Authorities :?: :?: :?:
Hi Guys,
I just saw this on ebay and apparently he is selling FREE software available here on ebay. I think you should all contact ebay and let them know. I know someone who purchased form him and it was the same software 'masked' as his.

users ebay id is salosakramtrade. I think that is bang out of order.!!!!
I personally don't see the problem. We all know and support this site, if people can't be bothered looking for the info they need then surely it is thier loss if they pay for what is generall free?

I had an issue with ebay before with something I developed that somebody else was selling. They aren't interested in helping. I just worked on a better version for everybody that had supported me! We should have the same attitude i think, forget the idiots that waste money on ebay buying "free" software, lets develop and support each other on here.
ill bet there selling the link to the instructions and the download link if they are selling the software developed by this site then the intuectual property still belongs to this site
is anyone selling a universal, that's in pretty good shape and not to beat up i know they are old now, but wouldn't mind maybe buying one from one who has one and is ready to depart with there old one.
I've got one... been meaning to post it on Ebay, haven;t had the time, also had planned on installing a new ROM. Very good shape. O2, with almost all original stuff.

Ok, I have seen many posts about this model and how to unlock it if it's only SIM locked but no one has yet decided to give us a program to generate the unlock code. I have started this thread maybe someone will finally post the app to generate the code by imei as I have seen on another post for the Touch model.
I am willing to donate money for the guy's work but I have to decide how much if it works.
This forum tries as I have seen to offer free stuff for people, but with the unlocking tools, simple unlocking tools no one wants to share.
Please is there is someone who wants to share his program to generate the unlocking codes, post it here.
Thanks
Why not just buy a code on ebay? It's not too expensive.
ebay code
I haven't serached ebay yet. do you have a link? thanks
www.ebay.com
There was a poster in the General forum who was giving away free sim codes. Try searching in there and the shoot out a PM.

Nop thaks, I ain't gonna pay 20 euros for a **** code, or wait a month until ebay code arrives in my country. I will somehow find a way to read the code from the phone and when I do I will freely give the program to anyone, I am not that despicable and money sick to ask cash for such a software. It cost's about 50$ to buy a mxkey or Axebox if I would want to make money from phone unlocking...but again I will find a solution and post it as open source for anyone...
if you do, please post it here..
My friend bought a Samsung Galaxy s 2 on ebay and I told him I would try to unlock it for him, I've unlocked a couple of GSs, I'm not a noob, but close to it. I used superoneclick to root, no problem once I used a computer without a savy virus program.
I tried chainfire with no luck, then Helroz and his repair program, also no luck. I started looking around for my nv_data file and couldn't find one at all. It seems other files are there and intact, imei file matches, etc, but no nv_data. Any suggestions?
Pay the $5 to an unlock company and give them the imei they will provide the unlock code with a day most likely. Not worth the time and aggrevation yo do it urself
There are no unlock tools for the skyrocket atm. so like icenight said you need to buy a code.
Which company?
Do you recommend any reputable company?
Thanks a lot. It would be worth it just so I don't have to think about it anymore.
unlocker.net Used them two days ago to unlock mine. Code was sent in only an hour. It was only $7.99 USD via Paypal while other sites were charging $30+
Highly recommended.
^^ high promoting eh? ^^
