Database Develop

What happened to PPC Geeks?

I've been getting 404s for the last hour. Are they maxed out? Down?

we don't know yet.

same here it must be internal, maybe an update but they didnt announce it as far as i can tell or maybe they have a disgruntled admin LOL

They were given a DMCA letter from Sprint lawyers for posting the 3.16 leaked firmware for the Sprint Mogul. They took the site down to clear out any and all of the dozens of links to the firmware.
Of course, that is purely speculation.

Please do no make speculations like that with absolutely no knowledge of whats going on. I can assure you it is nothing like that. Don't worry folks. We will be back up soon.

according to Big D, we set a record for users online today and I am sure that caused a crash. Mike will fix it

I am glad it's nothing too serious. I will be in SoCal the next few days so I will not be hogging as much space on the site as I normally do.

When running phpBB these problems were constant, even when there were only 125 or so users on. vBulletin has made a big difference, but the shared hosting is what is killing it. The host kills any db requests when the max memory or processor is hit, so the site gets killed. I'm sure Mike will get it back up soon, but those of us that love that site need to support him with $$$ so he can move to a non-shared host. His hosting service even has a new deal where you can adjust the amount of RAM and proc. you want (increasing and decreasing price accordingly) while staying on shared hosting. At least this way he can alleviate the problems without breaking the bank.

its amazing how addicting this stuff is i fell like i did when demonoid went down but ive just been going over the posts i need while working offline luckily i read through like evry post on the vista cube 2.0

We contacted wideawake yesterday and he says he is working on it, it was a busy day yesterday we hit a couple of high marks and overloaded the host a bit, wideawake wants everyone to know we are trying to get thing going again and PPCGeeks is very sorry for the inconvenience, we will have things up and going soon. My thanks to XDA for letting this thread stay open so we can let people know whats going on.

Thanks XDA for letting us use your board to support the comminuty further.

Yeah it was absolutely crazy to see that many people on the site at once, and this was at like 2-3pm in the middle of the day when so many people were on. I was certain we were about to top 700! It was really good to see that much traffic.
And I echo the other posts thanking xda for letting us crash here for a while... it's like ppcgeeks is my flat in manhattan and xda is my summer getaway pad in the hamptons lol.
**Just to prove my point, this is my first post here but i've been a member for almost a year! lol

Excellent networking and development with these two boards Keep up the much appreciated good work!

I'm not to sure if I believe this traffic excuse. I think Mikes dog keeps chewing through the servers power cord. Ha. But I to have to give credit to XDA for its relationship with the Geeks and allowing this tread to stay open So all of us lost souls know its not the end of the world and our home has just been closed up for a few days for (we'll say) pest control. Good lookin out XDA.

NNnnnooooo!!!!
so before ppcgeeks went down i downloaded the new (leaked) rom for my mogul. i ran it and generally liked it, but decided it was to flakely because i kept getting disconected from the net. i was just planing a test drive of it anyway because i finally wanted to try out that kitchen (by doguy i think his name is) and free up some room on my mogul. now though, no ppcgeeks
i guess i'll poke around my other "summer getaway" sites like sprintusers.com and here. THANKS XDA FOR HELPING ME WITH MY GEEK FIX

I'm a little concerned now. Shouldn't take this long unless they are migrating platforms. I hope they didn't lose the database somehow.

the site works randomly.. you gotta hit refresh like a bajillion times just to pull up a page. makes me think something else is going on.

app for menstrual cycle?

does anyone know if theres a freeware app for tracking menstrual cycles? just thought of tracking my girlfriends...

Step 1. make an entry in your calender for the last week and a half of every month.
Step 2. Anytime you see your wife/gf turn your body 180 degrees and walk the other way.

haha..but seriously

Use your calendar and reference this picture.
EASY.

Bloody hell..

Good grief, don't you have any better things to do with your time than track your girlfriend's period???????????????

Find it
I find this cab, but I haven't tested yet … Give me a feed back if it's OK.

Hmm.
A Today Plug-in that makes your Kaiser moody and unresponsive one week out of every four. I dunno- the HTC drivers do a pretty good job of that already.

*amused*
Just told the g/f about this, and she looked at me with pure disgust

I'd just like to make a Grammar Statement.
If indeed you did mean to type "girlfriends" which is plural, and means more than one, than I can see why you'd want to track it.
But If you mean you wanted to track the cycle that belongs to your girlfriend, you need to type "girlfriend's." The apostrophe makes it possessive.

well big lol
that prog of yours works the same like a calendar. only thing is when youre pushing like oct. 1 you will get a menu screen, which allows you the option to select in what period the girl is in, like dry,slightbleeding etc.
also you can select whether you can have sex with ur gf or not, or when do you need protection, or if she got cramps all sorts of stuff pretty funny actually^^ great find maybe im gonna buy it^^

First of all, Bloody hell is right
Secondly, LOL @ Girlfriends vs Girlfriend's
Third, WOW, it was odd enough that someone asked about that kind of software, but that someone else made it, thats just TFF.
I checked it out, pretty cool, even allows you to check off a day when she is PMSing (Which is just about every day)
But I think your gf would start wondering what was going on if you were taking her temp and giving her a mini-physical every day.

get the pill. i think its worth it. yasmine, recommended by doc with least side effects. PHP 680. there are cheaper but I'd rather not risk my wife's health.
I also tried to find an app but mostly not free.
>>oh yeah, I didn't know I'd be giving medical advice on xda devs.

There is a free app like this called My Girls. I think it's just java.

A straight answer pls
I understand this dudes pain. It sucks NOT KNOWING. Also.... if your trusting your wife/girlfriend then wtf are you thinking trusting a woman LOL. JK. Well personally I would like to see an app for this because i keep track with desktop software lol. Also.... can you guys pls not correct my grammar.... that's just ridiculous. Now....im gonna go buy a boxen of donuts ttyl.

man you mean this sort of thing doesnt happen every week?
Maybe I should keep track

for a moment i had this really crazy idea that women may visit this forum !!!
why not just ask ?, i can understand if your trying for a baby, remember some are irregular

This is true, Everyone please stay on topic. I understand how one could make light of this subject. And that's fine. Also, don't get too heavy. Keep it at a nice normal flow.

software, but not free
There is the software called LaFeme+. It's prety good, however it can only keep the info on 1 female specie. Also it has info on the body temp and different level of aggression Wright me PM - will help

Ready for a stupid question?

Ok I know this is an extremely stupid question, and yes I'm sure its been asked before. But I've been REALLY bored lately and just thought I would ask. Is it possible to or has it been tried to port the iPhone os to the g1?
Please keep the ridicule to a minimum. Remember, its only a harmless question.

the difference in closed-sourced and open-sourced.......
no, it can't be done.
(for now i will not flame you, but i make no promises if gridlock or supremeteam or someone else i know gets on here and starts laughing at you)

Oh no worries if it were someone else I would flame them just virtuous. Although if I had known it was still closed source I wouldn't have asked because I thought when 3.1 hit they were going open source.

This is the first I have heard of apple going open source with their iphone os. If that is true then I guess it could possibly done though I wouldn't expect anything anytime soon

Apple go open sourced, hell hasn't froze over yet but I did see a pig fly earlier, but it didn't have wings and we turn around and........**** I am gonna incrimate myself if I say anything fruther.
Know onto david's request:
If you would like icrap's os, I am writing a guide soon on how to brick your phone, I could send a copy to you for only 4 payments of 18.95, limited time offer though. Once you follow my guide than you can go buy a ipone and have the os all you want.
Good night now, it's 7 in the morning and I was woken up for some stupid ass side work as captain save a ho ****, that ain't happening again.
So I am out of commision for a few hours, I hope I don't miss too much

Anybody that would be able to port it over are to content with your android to port it, but it is very safe to say that if it did, the green guy might come out and try to kill us all, or at least self destuct the g1 for be defiled, uh I just got shivers just thinking about it.

Whats up david, I know I've been a lazy bastard and haven't done anything yet but I promise I'm going to get to it. I'm free this whole weekend so this might be my time to shine.
Get at me GridLock let me know how it went.

The only thing 3.1 did was send the devs back to the JailBreaking workbench. Apparently they aren't sure how to JB 3.1 which I would call the exact opposite of going open source.

If i see one more damn i**** port request for android, i going to make the worlds most devastating trojan that will infect every apple product even the shuffle. People wake up and smell the open sorce goodness

Hey don't attack my shuffle, that thing is great for working out, wait I use linux to load up my music, so I got no need to worry

shuffles are a wat of plastic. and wtf is up with the new nano having a camera

Wtf..... they got a camera, hope in breaks in seconds

yea its a cheapo little POS. i will never understand apple, they give the smallest ipod a camera and leave ipodtouch users without it.... weird... i guess i do understand it. its a plot to make money... greedy little basterds

hate it or love it apple is good at what they do. something to ponder is if android become as ubber cool to everyone and they mama would we find new phones and **** talk everyone for using droid?

we did it glock, we mufuckin got a thread closed. run smack yo mama, get ahold of supreme tell him the good news. we official now lol.

I got android for that fact that is was linux based, not because of the style or specs but for the os. I am not one to try and fit in

yea i was just making a statement, i mean really the iphone/ipod touch os is linux/unix based yoiu know? but i dont wanna get into the apple bs anyway im celebrating, we closed a thread, drink somethin off the top shelf tonight.

It got closed right as I was gonna tell you that david forgot to add it in the guide but I have read on some dodgey sites that if you have previously bricked a g1 than it is to counteract the breaking of a mirror by a bowling ball at the bottom of a lake
Codani, this is our second thread closed, remember g1bicked's g1 f$#%ed up thread

Not tonight I have a feeling I will be moonlighting as captain save-a-hoe tonight plus it's raining, gonna try to make it a quiet night, but tomorrow, tomorrow night I am getting hammered

I musta missed the closing of said thread.

Windows Marketplace, will it hurt?

Hey everyone,
I am really concerned about windows marketplace. I suppose it will either help the community here by weeding out certain visitors, or it could lure all the good dev's from here with the promise of getting more than recognition for their work.
Anyone have an opinion?

It always hurts the first time.

opps my bad i should really proof read.

I wouldn't worry about it. If anything, it should be useful for the platform and, as such, will benefit us all. For people like myself who flash ROMs quite often Marketplace is useless as it doesn't leave the the cabs and I'll have to redownload stuff every time. For those users who can't spend 5 minutes googling it will be a blessing and therefore will grow the market for WM apps.
What does worry me a bit is not users migrating to MP, but developers.

2.1 HELP

With the release of the 2.1 with camera and the new kernel. I've found myself checking this forum every chance I get. It has become so addicting that I can't even think of anything else. Almost once every hour, I get on my laptop pop open my browser and goto xda-developers.com (even in my sleep!). "Did they fix facebook sync?! or maybe video recording!" I ponder in my head as the page loads, secretly crossing my fingers. "Alas not yet, no worries I'll check again in another hour (or maybe 45 minutes)" Making sure I have the LATEST has become more important than meals. My friends don't recognize me anymore, not one shares in my excitement when I say LIVE WALLPAPERS! I don't know what to do. Someone please help.

I hope you are being sarcastic? If not, try getting a girlfriend My girlfriend has significantly reduced the amount of time I spend on here

I have xda open always....feeding directly to my phone..and subscribed to a few threats ;D welcome to our world .... any way of doing some cool XDA tshirts?

HA! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. My girlfriend isn't fanatical but she thoroughly enjoys the fruits of my obsession(s). She loves fresh 1.1 and the performance improvements of the gumbo kernel.
