Need ROM urgently!

I need to roll back to WM5... Where can I find Updated-aku-3 Roms V2 For Htc-wizard 3.3.0.0 now?

try this thread. there will be mirrors on pirate bay, rapid share etc
I'm not meaning to sound sarcastic or anything, but I was wondering why so many people ask for old roms that they used previously, does everyone delete them after use? I've got 22 on my pc because I keep them all, even the ones I don't like...?

Nope, never saw a need to save them. I don't know what got into me... I decided to install faria's WM6 ROM - I HATE IT!
Anyway, I did not find a single link to a mirror in that thread...

Its Seeded on PirateBay. Go get a copy of uTorrent or BitComet and install it. Then do a search on PirateBay for Faria and click to download the one you want. Shouldn't take too long (faster than the time its taken for you to keep asking here in various threads).

Well, 'scuse me for not having an idea of what piratebay is. pfft...

it's a file share site which you can search (unlike rapidshare) but you need softeware to use it, when you go to the site it'll give you download links.

Search for movies, resteraunts, etc...???

I just tried the Ultimate Search app and wasn't to impressed. I would like an all-in-one app for searching. Similar to, oh crap I forgot the name of it, an app that was on my treo 700wx where I could search movies, resteraunts, etc... Would also like a quick "google" search. Any suggestions?
I did search!

Windows Live Search does a lot of that. It's a great app.

Or Google Maps. Or use Opera Mini browser, then you can use Google in all its glory.
Or there's even a Yahoo Mobile beta, that works OK for me.

I have to second this recommendation. It hasn't failed me yet and you can even check gas prices in the area with it.

How do you get gas prices on Windows Live Search?

I gues I can live without that as it would only depress me to see US gas prices. We pay just over £1 ($2) PER LITRE now and most of that is tax!

And the GPS makes it even better. I love searching for things that are near wherever I happen to be.

Thanks for all the input and replies. Since I have my own thread I can ask where do I download windows live? Also, what else are you guys using it for? One more, do most of you use Opera mini and what are the differences?
Thanks, I know they are total noob questions but I get tired of reading and searching sometimes.
Thanks again.

Have a look in the 'sticky thread' at the top of this Kaiser section.

I use LiveSearch for mapping, directions, phone & address lookup, store & restaurant seaches, etc.
I use both PIE and Opera Mini. I like PIE for mobile enhanced websites (e.g. ESPN for scores) but for regular websites Opera Mini has it beat hands down with its scrolling and zooming features (that work nicely with TouchFlo).

For the Kaiser guys!

This is a duplicate post from the main forum... Thought I would post it here to let all my Kaiser developers know about it too:
I have been "leeching" from XDA for a while now and I want to give something back to XDA.
I have a webhosting business. I am not really doing anything with it at this time. I was thinking about opening it up for XDA members for file hosting.
I HATE RapidShare and other "free" sites like it... I wouldnt do anything more than some banner ads on the site, maybe some GoogleAdSense... Nothing intrusive... I promise...
Would anyone use this COMPLETELY FREE SERVICE?
Im setting it up now, 100MB for RAR and ZIP, 50MB for CABS
www.FarBeyondHosting.com

Is it ok for the Kaiser gals to use it? We do have some

What is the allocated space per user account?

Hey I am more interested in knowing that rather than hosting.
Great idea mate, That would be really very helpful for all. I suggest you to contact ROM developers as they are the trendsetters.
Good luck

None... Its on a VBulletin just like these forums... I am going to make sure the links are "pretty" and you dont have to be registered to download them...
You will still need to be registered to POST them as attachments... if I had some kind of ftp/file sharing thing like 4shared I might use it, but I dont... so vbul it is!

Thumbs up!

great idea!!

Awesome idea. Most file sharing sites are blocked from my work and sometimes I see these cool apps and ROMs and I can't get them until I get home.
Great job.

[POLL] Prefered File Sharing services for ROM Cooks to provide downloads for users

I have had communication with several other cooks who also thought this poll would be a good idea. The fact is Rapidshare is by far the most popular used service amongst cooks. However I and many others receive many request for other mirrors due to problems.
So the question is which service is the best for the users, and the cooks. Many of us can only comment on what we have and it is too costly to try many different ones so hopefully this Poll will provide some information.
Keep in mind for cook most all of us have to have a paid account to get around the limitations of the free services.
From a cook myself I have not had any issues with Rapidshare. But I also have a paid account.

Rapidshare is probli best and easiest to upload on, but I personally am blocked out of it through a university VPN
Is there a way of uploading them directly to this website (html), may be alot of bandwith, but maybe each cook could have one file limit each

I prefer Rapishare because I have not any issues with Rapidshare and also have a paid account.Madiafire its very slow in my lokation..

Sorry but this website is not a option I'm afraid.

Another one I forgot to add to the list is FileDropper

Bob,
I am not sure whether you know ROM hosting service that TehPenguin is offering for free of charge. http://vidmes.com/xda/Touch HD/ROMs/
It was widely used in the HTC Universal forum and it is very good. Maybe it is worth for you to have look.

Thanks, No not aware but I will check it out. Is there any limits on users for downloads?

I sent him a PM but I have not heard back. I don't know how to upload to his site.

Have you tried http://dl.free.fr/ ?
It's totally free, you can set a password, and the file is online until nobody has downloaded it for 30 days.
Ok, it's french, but not very difficult to use, and actually, I don't know if you need to use free.fr as you Internet provider in order to upload files...
Or another one, that is free but I don't know it: http://www.filedropper.com/

It is not just about free for me but what the limitations are for users. Some sites limit your downloads per area, some company' block some sites, some only let you download 10 times for users. Thanks and I will check it out.

I've checked for dl.free.fr and it appears there is a bandwidth limitation for users not using Free as there Internet provider, so it's perhaps not the best.
But Filedropper seems quite good, doesn't it?

My own personal preference is any of them except Rapidshare. Only reason is that my work blocks this site

i voted for megaupload
everything i ever downloaded worked with no issue and the speed is at least acceptable

Would it be an option to put a torrent on this site and let sharing do the rest? That's what p2p networks are for right? ;-)

I prefere htcpedia or celogeek
It's not filtred by my proxy.

I'm with you on that

Couldn't find the site on google, and I'm not typing that into my address bar. In the office, so I'm not gonna setup a quarantined browser to see if it is what it is.

Don't take your chances.
