Well it seems ppcwarez is no longer working and I can't seem to find any sites that are like it. Does anyone know of any sites that are similar to it.
bad move man, this site doesn't support warez so I wouldn't post this up or i'd delete this thread if you could
just tryna save you a ban
The original poster should be banned, period.
I hate this kind of thing because it will discourage people for making application.
131 posts and hasn't learned a thing. What a shame.
If you want legally free software this site is useful: http://www.freewareppc.com/
As the others said, illegal software on this site is a no-no.

now lets meditate boys. humm.hummmmmmmm....
I dont see any point in continuating this thread, so I'll just lock it.
killerkhatiby009: you've been warned, and hopefully for the first and the last time
Just noticed this post (http://androidcommunity.com/forums/164198-post13.html) over on AC.
Rather than jump to any conclusions or get all bent out of shape, I thought I'd politely and respectfully ask if the XDA mods can comment on this and to see if they would kindly share (or point me to, if it is already posted somewhere) the clear and specific criteria for what's allowed and what's not.
XDA has always had a very open spirit and feel to me and I'd hate to see any legitimate and helpful technical discussions squashed just because Google or T-Mobile might not like what we're saying (provided we're not advocating anything truly illegal -- and I'm referring here to things that will land you in jail, not simply about possibly wandering astray of the terms of service).
This has always been my go-to place for answers and I don't know where I'd go if I couldn't find what I was looking for here. The contributors here are top-notch and I haven't found the same quality on any of the other Android forums.
i'm not a mod but i may have some answer for you. the post you linked is speaking of a post in which someone was specifically asking how to copy applications from protected areas of the phone. there is really no need to do that since we can move everything to the ext2 partition and never lose our apps. the person repeatedly asked for the commands to do it and mikey threatened with a suspension. then a totally different person called mikey a dousche and he got a three day vacation. simply put *I* feel that if you do not know how to get the apps from your phone, protected or not, then there is no need to ask someone how to do it as it could potentially be considered warez and we do not like to see that here. warez is any post that specifically links or describes a way to get around paying money for a service, so if this person that was asking had managed to get apps from protected places then they could have bought an app, copied the .apk and refunded the app before the 24 hour limit and never actually pay a dime. hope this helps.
P.S. i hope mikey doesn't care i told his story for him
Thanks -- I figured there was more to the story and I appreciate the explanation. Good to know that I can still think of and rely on XDA as the open forum I know and love
I have been a member for a few years now and I understand the site culture very well. But there are things I just cannot do by myself because I am not so tech savvy, more of a specialized end user.
I want to find someone at XDA who will create a "Sashimi" package for me, so that I can flash ROMs and finally not have to deal with then re-setting up all my apps and settings and themes and registry changes.
On XDA, is it permitted to seek a specific skill for a specific task, and pay someone to do it?
(if not, no problem. But I am just asking)

In principle we have no objections against it as long as you're clear in what you seek and what you expect to pay for it. The best suited place for such a request imho would be the marketplace following the rules there which are specifically made for selling stuff (or services).
Next time feel free to PM questions like this, although there is no objection against asking it in public, I'll just be able to answer quicker.
Best regards,

First let me qualify (or disqualify) myself.
I do not own a Viewsonic G Tablet.
I own other Android devices.
I have a strong background in development and programming. I am the Director of Engineering for a small company in Tennessee where we develop adult amusement devices (no, not porn) such as slots, video poker, etc.
I am proficient in many languages, as well as 'nix operating systems.
I have cooked my own roms in the past.
Second...
I have been lurking around the XDA developer forum since back in the Windows Mobile 6 days. I currently have an Android phone and an Android tablet (not a Viewsonic).
Like everyone else here, the prospect of the new build is tasty. Wanting to delve into it myself to see what I can do, It is helpful to me to look (like many others) in the development forums to see what I can see.
However...
Let this serve as a warning to anyone who is not a "Dev" on this forum.
This forum, like many other here at XDA belongs to a handful of "Devs" and you are not one of these "Devs".
Your best bet is to lurk like the rest of us. I don't care if you have a Honeycomb port that will work on this device or a pill that cures cancer. They don't want to see it and you don't want the hassle of being flamed for trying to contribute. They will get to it and you will not beat them to it.
Devs work hard. They do the work for free and they should be revered and respected. But make no mistake, they know it and are not afraid to tell you to STFU and GTFO for merely making a suggestion or comment.
So do all of us a favor, stick to the General forums and don't poke the bear.
I do not plan to respond to this thread and it should probably be closed immediately.

Not trying to poke your bear, but even this thread should not be posted in here. This needs to be moved to the general section. This thread defines the word ironic.
Peace \oo/

.........lmfao i was about to say the same thing, this thread totally defeat its purpose, the fact is no matter how much you tell people to "search" "post in the proper section" "dont ask for ETAs" and so on theres going to be someone that dont follows the rules, and WTF???? "This forum, like many other here at XDA belongs to a handful of Devs"??? this forum belogs to the community just as much as it does the devs......obviously someone did not read the "state of the site anoucement......tsk......tskk
I am poking the Bear, and here it goes.
If you want us peasants to stop posting in the Development forum of ANY device, simply create a tag for Developers, make it so only "x" amount of posts and a review by the mods, will grant someone this tag. Then you limit access to the Dev forum to tag holders only. Then, when one of the Devs (whos' work is tremendous and I highly resect) has something ready to go, they can post a link or a file in the General section.
That way us 'morons' who are not welcome here can't possibly get in their way with our useless posts and questions. I am tired of the elitist attitude that some have here. Yes a lot of you know more than I do about this stuff, yes I am learning to do this stuff in my SPARE TIME. I am not in college, I do not have a job that allows me to sit in front of a computer all day(don't want it either). When I do have the time to get invloved, or if I find something useful, like many of us, I want to post it. I don't want to be a leach. I can only speak for myself with this. I may not be able to give as much as the devs do, but how can I possibly learn if I dno't ask questions?
The Search feature that people here are so in love with and can't wait to tell us "search is your friend"?
Its almost useless. Its rare that I can find what I'm looking for in the limited amount of time I have to be on here. Its generally easier for me, and many others I suspect, to ask the question and wait for an answer.
Then ask the question. The big complaint is that most don't even try to look or they post "LOOK>>>>>HONEYCOMB ON THE NOOK.....WHY DONT WE HAVE IT YET" in the dev section. Granted the search function isnt great but filling up the forum with the same questions over and over is what makes the search function useless to some. Although I seem to be able to find what I'm looking for most of the time with a little work. The moderators have asked that people not post general questions as new threads in the dev section yet it keeps being done.
its not an elitist attitude about the dev section. Its a request to keep the posts to development only or at least inside the correct thread and not keep asking the same question over and over with a new thread.
I agree with limited access...

I think the idea of tags is a great idea, but once again I don't know how easy this function would be.

Unfortunately, you're changing the rules of the present discussion with that. The OP stated "Devs work hard. They do the work for free and they should be revered and respected. But make no mistake, they know it and are not afraid to tell you to STFU and GTFO for merely making a suggestion or comment." The implication of that is you SHOULDN'T ask the question, you should just STFU.
IMO, the OP is WAY out of line. If the devs don't want comments/suggestions/questions, then they should keep their dev work private and not open it up for public consumption. Yes, the rest of the community wouldn't benefit as much in that case, but there's no excuse for an arrogant attitude like saying STFU for GTFO if someone merely makes a suggestion or comment on something that's been posted for public consumption.
If the devs are simply doing their work and sharing it just to have people fawn all over them for it and expect not to have to deal with the questions/comments/suggestions of the "unwashed masses", well, sorry, the world (and this site/forum, from my understanding) doesn't work that way.
Its the answering "How do I install clockwork?" question that is posted all the time even tho its clearly posted as a sticky. "I've followed the directions exactly and I cant get TnTlite to install".....wrong....you havent or it would have installed. "When are we gonna get an update to X rom?"......"How come we don't have Honeycomb yet?"....."Your rom bricked my device"....."Why won't someone answer my question? that was posted 15 minutes ago.....The devs do this on their own time and for the most part are happy to answer questions but when its clear that someone has no intention of learning for themselves and just want the info handed to them on a silver platter.......well....it gets old
The OP is out of line with his "psa" unless he speaks on behalf of the collective body of said developers.
This is a rhetorical post, I will not be responding again.
Edit: see what I did there with that last line?

Collaaaaa!!!!
If we want to grow the G Tab community ( aka continue to receive the excellent support from the Devs) we need to grow the number of G Tab users. If I were considering a new tablet purchase and stopped by here to check out the G Tab, I would not put it high on my list. If new members post in the wrong section or dup a post, it's Ok to send them a "Friendly" reminder, but to blast them like this is an insult to everyone here. Hell they might even be driven to buy a windows mobile 6 product.
Could someone point me in the right direction please or refer me to a developer that would have the skillset?
Looking for a developer that can do some very basic mods to Verizon's 6620L jetpack, or Netgear's AC791L Jetpack.
Willing to pay. Details will be discussed privately.
Thank you

First development is not done for a price, why dont you learn and develop for yourself. And this is not the place to be posting, try the question sections, in those device you seek.
Or like I said there is no buying development, trying learning.
Thread Closed.
