If there's something offered by the xda-developers that's not on the "straight and narrow", your best bet is to report this directly to an Administrator or post it within one of the following threads.

Good Luck!

Did you redeem the code within 30 days of purchase? I'd be willing to bet you didn't, and now you're up for additional costs. I've never used XDA Depot before, it's not something the moderators look after, so I don't know how it works. So I am only making a guess here.

I haven't spent a ton of time here, but I would believe that xda would be ran the same as ppc. A link to a free solution (or even an app) is often found there, but warez is not accepted. Was he trying to pass something off from here as though it were his own? If so................ What, you guys would never notice?
Not warez, but a simple mistake.
I accidentally deleted his post when cleaning up a bulk of spam.
Therefore he was automatically banned.
Honest mistake.
My bad
Corrected the mistake by unbanning him and un-deleting the thread.

PS.
As for warnings: I do not warn spammers. I delete the crap and ban them (and I am talking about hundreds of spammers weekly!).
For this user to get in between a batch of spammers and scammers, that is unfortunate however, but he could have contacted the site admin to correct this mistake.
Hi all,
At the moment I am a student at the VU University Amsterdam, doing co-creation research. I would appreciate it very much, when you guys fill in my questionnaire for developers about co-creation.
This survey is done to investigate co-creators within online co-creation communities. An online Co-Creation community is a online network of people, who share the same interest, common identity and social relationships, among admires of a brand or product. Co-Creation is the integration of customers within the production and design process of an organization, to create value, and products to fulfill consumers' needs. In this case that would be, developers who design apps in order to improve the mobile devices for everybody.
If you fill in the questionnaire, you have the change to win 2x 50 euro! If you send this link to relevant people with me in cc [email protected] you increase your chance!
Many thanks, please check the link below

Here is our little sob story.
DJ_Steve is a well known developer for not just the Streak 7, but also the Toshiba Thrive and Streak 5. About 7 months ago, he asked me to join up with him in development of ICS for the Dell Streak 7. Naturally I accepted to learn from a great dev.
In the past 4 months Steve has gone dark . After talking with him, it turns out he is having financial problems. He has been working double shifts at his job, left his apartment and moved in with his girlfriend, sold his Subaru, sold several tablets, computers, and other personal belongings in an attempt to get himself on the right track. Things are improving in his life, but he needs help with one other bill.
The server.
The server is a Core-i7 with 16GB of RAM with SSD drives. It lets us build a complete version of Android 4.0.3 in 40 minutes. It has all the things we need to build for all three devices plus experiment on other things, like kernel development and new devices that could lead to better things for our devices.
Current cost is $59.95 USD a month to pay for this server. We are looking for help paying for this. At the bottom of this thread will be two different donation links.
One is his USD/GB donation if you want to donate in small or big portions.
The other link is to pay a month of the bill itself, directly to the host of the server.
I am not asking anything I wouldn't do myself, as I will be paying for a month of the server myself.
I am asking for at least 6 months worth of donations (5 after I pay for a month), so a total of $300 is needed. This should be enough to get him through a tough time without the worry of another bill to stress about.
With the help from this, we can get Steve back on track and get him back to developing.
Pay for the Server directly: (removed because its a one-time only link)
Give donations to Steve:
GBP Donate | USD Donate
And Steve wants to add this:
"thanks folks now you know the reason i been so quiet lately i havent had the time to do anything due to this , if anyone did pay via the direct payment server link let me know the paypal transaction id(s) and i can pass the info to my server company to make sure it get credited correctly "
How is this going so far? Any response?
Regards,
Hans
We had one user on TabletRoms.com say he paid for a month of service, so its a great start
Since the sever donate link is gone, I just sent $60(6NG74443LG717281V) directly to Steve. Hope this helps out.
Made a donation. Best of luck Steve.
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
Donated $60 to Steve.
Thank you so much, guys, I know Steve really appreciates it.
Will donate as soon as I have some more funds myself. Currently balancing a bunch of bills and rent that all came in at the same time this month.
Will donate once I have the money for sure though.
I put in 60 bones, since I couldn't find the "pay for server" option. Steve good luck dude, can't wait to see what you guys come out with next!

The link for direct pay to the server was taken down because it was a one-time-only link.
Maybe Dell should be hiring Steve....
Wish you luck! You are a very talented developer.
As soon as I get some funds I will throw a few bones his way. May not be much.but every little bit helps. If it wasn't for you guys development for this device would be dead. So it is greatly appreciated and anything I can do to help I will.
just sent him $60 ... hope to see him back in action soon
If he went to work for dell, he'd have to learn how to speak indian!
I'm curious what the total of donations has come to? Seems it should be close to if not past a 6 month cost of the server ($300?)
I get a bonus from work on Friday and want an update about the closeness of development continuing as I plan to contribute and will be using the same bonus to have my dell dock installed in me car. My streak will be sooo much better as a dash head unit running the latest and greatest, the current beta4 has caused me to hold off on the car install.
Thanks

Not to run too far off topic but I don't know how many times I have considered doing this with a 5 or 7 inch device. Wire the audio out to an amplifier and then out to the car speakers. Possibly use USB host to add a flashdrive or HDD for extra music storage.
Good luck! Should be a fun project
I sent a message to Steve to see how much he got

People are saying the owner put the domain (DroidHive.com) up for sale and skipped off with all the donations so I would think twice about donating, would also be concerned if you use the same login and password on anything else.

This is not accurate. Please refrain from spreading rumors.
edit:
DroidTh3ory changed his twitter handle to @KillDroidHack
DroidHive is no longer DroidHive, the main contributors have set up at least 2 new sites, one of which is Rombot.org (krackflashers.org)
Donations are donations; if you appreciate the work that someone has put into a ROM, or an app, or a website, then donate. Donations are not a service agreement. If you like a site, and then donate, but the site operator decides he can lo longer support the site, this is not 'skipping off with the donations'. The developers on DroidHive, and many other android developer sites have jobs, families, and other obligations that sometimes cause their hobby of developing for Android to take a backseat.

At least what I posted is what has been said by some of the staff on Twitter and in the chat part of the Hive, if it's inaccurate maybe you can tell us why:
1. It has been operating under http://krackflashers.com,
2. The domain is up for sale @ godaddy.com?
3. The forums are offline?
4. The DNS as well as displayed sight names have been changing daily?
5. DroidTh3ory was the site owner, is that correct? what happened to his twitter account and why has he all of a sudden gone missing from everything?
You'll admit any website displaying the above listed facts should be approached with caution.
So what's the scoop then???? If your saying it's not accurate please inform us, the Android community (especially those who have contributed money) have a right to know don't we?
KDH did not just vanish and I highly doubt donations have been stolen. Unreal.

Cool, then what's the real story with DroidHive?
under new name and look, but droidhive community is bulletproof. we take care of one another and frankly *i dont even care* what my donation was used for. it was given as a sign of gratitude.
Why do people insist on spreading crap about which they know nothing about? If you MUST know what really happened, he went on vacation with his family and all this crap happened while he was gone. And people just made up rumors based on what they assumed happened. He was very pissed when he got back as he should have been. Believe what you want but stop spreading rumors and conjecture as fact. Honestly, I never understood why people get into this kind of nonsense...

Agreed...these people spreading rumors are idiots. What does it matter what he does with the donations anyways? People donate to him because he spends his time making amazing ROMs for people, and he has made countless amount of ROM's for us people who have no clue what we are doing. So we donate to him in appreciation for what he has done for us. So he can do whatever he wants with that money. It would be different if we donated to him in anticipation for something and then he bounced, however that is not the case.

So it looks like no money was stolen, it just disappeared cause of wherever it was that hacked the site and now they need another $400 to stay open? How do we know the money won't "Disappear" again?
I make donations for ROM's and feel people need to support those who develop for our devices. However I wouldn't put to much trust in Droid Hive right now.
Then don't donate. Who's holding a gun to your head to do so?

The OP asked about the web site and I answered the question with what I have heard in the last few weeks. I'm not saying anyone shouldn't donate (just I wouldn't @ this time) or the site owner shouldn't do whatever with the money, Just that everyone should look at whats going on and make a informed decision based on what they feel is happening.
And Sorry, I didn't mean to quote you in post #17
I support and wish the best for everyone involved with the hive, and will continue to support it with donations if it's still around in a month or so.
It appears that rombot.org is now gone as well.
