Unfortunately no, you can`t open a thread here and ask for people to contact you or any other company in order to receive a device to promote reviews .
We allow device reviews obviously but we don`t intermediate the reviewers and the device owners on open threads.
This might turn into a business and this is against the forum rules

Who did you email?
I see no record on the webmaster email account.
But as said already we have rules that prevent commercial activity. Although this would not be a "selling" thread it woud presumably be to gain reviews to help sales of a conmmercial product.

Maybe we are misunderstanding what you are wanting to do.
If you have no interest in the company that produces the bluetooth headset then why do you want the person to write a review(s)?

It's ok for a User to write a review here when they have chosen to do it. But it is a problem if they are only writing it in return for a free product. In a sense that means the review has been "bought".

what do you want to unlock ? ? ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437785
flash it.
i think thats the only way
Can somebody tell me if I can unlock(clear SIM-Lock or operator-lock) Xperia X1 with a firmware change? Or do I need something else? Can you give me a link to it? I saw the link above(with ROMs), I know that I can flash X1 with these ROMs using ROM Update Utility(somewhy called Kovsky) and I saw also a topic with Hard-SPL, but don't know what's its purpose.
Especially I would like to know if it's possible to unlock X1, locked by english operator called "3"? Did somebody tried it? I've heard that it's almost impossible.
I saw a link with unlock for money, but would be nice if there was a way to do it by myself.
Thank you very much for your answer in advance!
How do I remove the operator lock? with flash, what do i need to flash then? is a generic rom on it enough?
thnx in advance

For the general knowledge of all - Every donation to Tupisdin results in a donation to XDA-Developers. We did check that a long time ago and Admin confirmed that the donations to XDA-Dev were being received.

I find using other people their work to make money off it offensive. Would you people donate every penny to either the creator of the unlocker(s) or XDA-Developers, sure - no reason to stop a good cause. But the selfishness of selling it as your own doing is simply appalling.
That, is in no way nonsense.
So, I'd love to be proven wrong and finding out that you're doing this with tools you created yourself. In that case, you shouldn't advertise it on XDA.
If it's not the above - you don't belong on XDA.
(P.S. this goes for both crusher and platinumLA.)

I do not think he is asking for warez, I think he was asking if anyone has the free version that was on the Market before the paid version came out and it was removed. I have a back up of the last free release, but it looks like someone already posted it.
That said, since it was the free version, I don't think that it is considered warez, is it ?
Also, I have to agree... 10 bucks for an AIM client is lame. Is it even legal to charge for an AIM client since it uses AOL's protocols and network ? At the worst the dev most likely used libpurple/pidgin's reverse engineering work for TOC/OSCAR, and just wrapped that with a UI.

Hi guys/girls, I just got an Xperia SP yesterday. Although I'm reasonably tech savvy, these days I'm not to clever. Just introducing myself really and hope to learn from the forum. I will endeavour to research as much as I can myself, however I'm on a few other forums ( none phone ) and have always found people very helpful. Thanks in advance ..... Mikey

Ok so any questions about the phone? Had to stop visiting Sony forums as I can't stand the continuous complains:crying: XDA is not just for developers but also in general for people who want to learn.
Just a few basics:
1. Always use the search button. Many, including me are particularly annoyed by people who can't be bothered to search
2. Press the thanks button for helpful posts. It helps a lot by pointing out the useful replies and for the poster's ego...
3. Finally, the video
Please don't feel offended LOL.
As always, feel free to ask questions.

Hi all.
My question is about kernel sources. I know devs can do magic if the sources are out there.
So, does Xiaomi typically give kernel sources? When would they do that? And especially why?
I am trying to understand how Xiaomi stands in that regard.
Cheers!
They are some of the worst. Even when they do release it, it is broken or incomplete. No one that has any choice buys their devices.

You can think what ever you want but my comments are very much true. If a developer is looking for a device to develop on Xiaomi is is avoided due to their lack of following the GPL. Think I am wrong why not have a read HERE where we talk about it in length.

No idea. Their selection criteria which device source to release also remains unrevealed.
maybe 1year after the release of Mi5. Thats what they did with Mi3 right?
The kernel sources are published. Are they complete and are they useful for the dev(s)?

Only developers will know for sure unless you download the source and try to build it as is. Most of the time there takes lots of fixes and hacks to get it working. Main reason most developers won't buy their devices.
