So the big deal with RAPH800

Same is going on at xda with adobe flash v3.1 and their legal team, surprised it hasn't hit here yet....Same thing with Music ID here as well.

I think i understand ...your saying that the carrier paid to have the app exclusively on thier device? so realy the illegal activity is the actual application not the fact that a ROM has a diffrent Device ID .. Or is it?

If someone was to make a ROM that had the Device ID of RAPH800 with no illegal application , would that still be considered WARZE?

ok i see whats the problem with using raph800 in a rom but what exactly is raph800?

[cado33055]

Due to the fact that it IS warez, and changing the Model ID has no other benefits, having a custom ROM with that would be promoting the Warez, or doing nothing at all, so why change it?

But Tobey, didn't you first promote this yourself??:

Hi, bro
could u please stop asking chef to cook a custom ROM for urself? seems not many demand for it here . it's like asking someone to do something they don't want to do. if you really wants it , u can do it yourself. shouldn't be that hard.
