2. Point of the thread is too see how many people are willing to help elite team

you can't say "wait like everyone else" because less people are willing to wait, more people willing to help with the testing.

here is something interesting...

Are you actually willing to put your money where your mouth is and if your phone gets bricked by an un-tested unlocker you just gonna throw it away and buy another one?

Or are you gonna go and cry and moan to your Sprint/Verizon/whatever carrier and actually try to make them gave you a new one essentially making them pay for this? You realize that by using the unlocker you are voiding your warranty and you are on your own? Or are you so *brave* because you will try to scam your <insert carrier here> into giving you another one?

why do you think it will brick my device if it did not brick ELITE teams devices? If i get the spl , i wont just flash it, i will dissassemble is first to see what is changed, and if it will brick my device.

Even if it will brick my device, i can always revive my device using JTAG, if i will have to.
I will be upgrading to IPHONE or STORM2 anyways since telus will be getting those in novemember.

if i were the team id be taking names and ip address from all the complainers, then when its released those who complained have to pay a price or another week...........lol

Why in the world would you "Upgrade" to an iPhone or Storm 2? If anything the only Upgrade I would want to do is if the HD2 comes to the US.. That is an upgrade.

Seems like you know a lot about it.. why don't just do the unlocker yourself?

So you consider this useless, yet you started it anyway? Thanks for the clutter. You're not gonna get a pre-release HSPL so who cares? You'll get it when everyone else does...I'm so sick of having to sift through a bunch of stupid threads like this.

Just cause everyone else is being retarded doesnt mean you have to follow suit.

...and all that b!tchin, moaning, pleading and riding on your high horse was for what? So you can play with the device youre about to dump anyway for a few more days?

Do us all a favor and switch to a different device NOW!

So apparently it's a distribution issue with not wanting to crash the ppcgeeks server? There's an easy fix for that if that is the case.

There are really only two issues as far as crashing the site goes:

Obviously uploading the unlocker to the server is going to cause a ton of bandwidth stress. You can mirror the actual unlocker file across several of those free file storage sites "megaupload" or whatever its called, and others. Also, I'm sure that several board members have webspace somewhere and would be more than willing to host the file there. Just need to include a hash checker to make sure that the file hasn't been tampered with or isn't damaged. Bandwidth problem solved.

The main issue would be the huge increase on server resources (CPU, RAM, etc.). That is also a simple fix. Just set up a temporary static html page somewhere with the links and info/instructions and post a link to it up at the top. Each time a page is loaded within the boards, the server has to regenerate everything. Huge load on the server. Using a static page will eliminate that problem. And if it's just a simple page with no graphics or and isn't anything fancy, the bandwidth usage would be minimal. Like downloading a very small text file. Server load problem solved.

That'd reduce both bandwidth stress and server stress... as well as keep the forums going. (and also keep the owner of the ppcgeeks server(s) out of trouble with the hosting company)

A day or two of that, and everyone would get their fix... and things would be back to normal.

Just a (hopefully helpful) suggestion if that is, indeed, the problem the team is dealing with right now.

Thanks.
